Picture Perfect

Tsukiakara looked at the picture of the target. Apparently the client asked the Hidden Valley to look for him as he is expected to go to the Land of Rivers for refuge. The Land of Rivers is a well know safe haven for exile ninja even the Akatsuki has made a base or two here. But this exile was different. The client has offered to pay a large sum for his capture. Tsukiakara sighed. He hated pointless mission in which he had wait around for someone who probably won’t show up. He looked at another picture. “Apparently the target travels with this girl, presumed to be his younger sister.” Well all there was to do now was to sit around and wait.

Akuma lifted his sister onto his shoulders as he walked "when will we get there brother" dawn asked excitedly "soon dawn I hope, then we can eat" he chuckled as she rested her cheek on the top of his head and yawned "go to sleep sis, and I'll wake you when we get there" he kept walking as she closed her eyes, 'ill protect you' he thought with a smile on his face.

Tsukiakara couldn’t believe his eyes. It was definitely the target. He had to keep cool. The last thing he wanted to do was to scare him away. So he got up and slowly approached the two.

Akuma narrowed his eyes at the boy approaching, he didn't look like a threat but you could never tell until they attacked "what do you want?" he asked calmy, so not to wake and alarm the girl asleep on his shoulders.

“I am to escort you to Tanigakure. Please don’t make me resort to violence.” Tsukiakara said.

Akuma couldn't handle a fight at the moment and sighed "fine, but may I ask why" he looked at the boy curiously, what did he want?

“Some person is looking for you I don’t know why. I was just told to take you Tanigakure if I saw you.”
