Sakumo remained silent for a while after Kaname asked her question, and then he answered, "According to her team mates, she's always spoken as if her brother was still alive."<br/><br/>"So it wasn't unusual for her to say such things..." He grit his teeth and furrowed his brow, "But the only people who come to the Forest of Death seeking their lost loved ones are those who acknowledge that they've died."<br/><br/>He shook his head as he hopped over one tree branch and onto the next, "It is difficult to try and read the intentions of such a mind..."<br/><br/><hr/><br/>The sparrow nin left her clothes in a fairly obvious place, no subtle hint to the wolf nin. In the other chamber, the peach-haired kunoichi relaxed with a small cloth over her forehead as she rested the back of her head on the edge of the bath.<br/><br/>She opened her eyes and brought her head up to greet Jun with a playful smirk. "How'd the old boy take to being told to stay home? Did he give you the big puppy dog eyes again?"<br/><br/><hr/><br/>The kunoichi's eyes drifted away from Tashi's when he confronted her on the markings over her body. She had, in her moment of wistful passion and lustful haze, forgotten to cover herself up after the disguise had ended. And what was worse, she had forgotten that his piercing red eyes were not entirely just for show.<br/><br/>"Of all the kunoichi in this village..." She sighed, shaking her head, "...You're too kind to think me unequaled." Before she could protest further, he kissed her deeply. Her body was pulled against his own, and they laid in embrace there for a long time.<br/><br/>Her thigh rubbed up against his hardening cock, the older woman softly rubbing it back and forth teasingly. Maki's hands drifted from his back and chest lower, one down to his butt and the other dragging along his finely sculpted muscles.
