Joint cooperation (Gor & Bird possibly Mature XD)

She stoped humming after the last piece of armor was placed on him. “All done” She said with a cute smile. She then took his free hand and tugged him over to the horse drawn cart.

(sorry for the short post, having a wave of writers block)

Chiba was all but dragged to the cart, he tried to protest but gave up Becuase it probably wouldn't work. He let himself be dragged with a half smile, he liked her. He clamoured into the cart and then offered his hand to help her up. "here you've..been so nice to me. Im sorry I can't repay you" he said truthfully.

“It’s okay that’s what friends do to each other right?” She said with a cute smile. She then pointed toward the river she saw earlier. “There’s a river over there. All we have to do is follow it and we’ll get to the Valley.” She told him.

"okay" chiba said, following the river as commanded. It was not long before he spoke wanting to make conversation with his friend. "is life good in the valley, its small smaller than the rain so it would be hard. Isn't it" he questioned. In reality he wanted to find more about muki than her village.

“It is actually. Because we so small we often get called to many mission without stop or break. Not only that we are so undermanned that even the genin are sent on jonin level missions.” She remarked. “But it’s still a pretty good village in my option.”

"then it must be if such a good ninja as yourself comes from it " Chiba commented happily, looking up. Finally the clouds had dissapeared and he cold feel the warm sun against his face. He didn't know how long it would take to get to the valley. It maybe theyre stay somwhere.

The warm sun was indeed a very nice improvement to the constant rain they had been getting. It didn’t take long before they got to the river Muki was talking about. “Yeah if only it work that way. The valley doesn’t really make any good ninja. We made fools out of ourselves at the chunin exams and they were the best genin we had.” She commented.

"are you kidding" Chiba laughed heartily before continueing "I lost the first match if the chunin exam but for some reason I still earned the rank" he said smiling. "I guesss we have somthing I common" he shrugged as he followed the river. He remeber the bastard stabbing him through the heart and shivered. Ha was when he had his other arm, a whole back. He sneezed once again.

She then heard his sneeze. “You should get some more rest. There’s plenty of room in the back. I can drive the horses while you sleep” She offered as the horses trotted along the riverside.

"what with a corpse " Chiba shivered at the thought " no I'll pass besides I'm fine, I told you. I don't need to sleep if I don have to. It's just a cold" again he sneezed just after, dam cold. Why why now. Atleast he was with some kind "though it's very kind of you to offer muki, thank you" he smiled at her.

“I’ll get you better when we get to the village. I have more tea leaves I could use at home” She said. As they moved along they soon got to another even bigger river that the old river was pouring into. “We need to follow this river know” She said pointing to the even bigger river. It was very wide and deep but as long as they didn’t have to cross it they would be fine.

Chiba again did as she said and turned the cart to follow the river. "no..muki..I do t want to..I
Don't on you when we get their" he mumbled, thought he liked the idea of staying with her. He took a side long glance at her. Noting her nicely curved body and good looks, He stopped himself .

“What?” She asked not really show what he was trying to say with his mumbling. About all she was able to hear was her name, I, and don’t. The river made sounds of rushing water as the horses continued to trot along.

"I would want to impose on you or anything when we get their" Chiba said more clearly than before. Slowly but surely he was gaining the confidence to speak to her. It was nice, very nice. He looked at ten water and relised he hadn't had a bathe in a while, they should stop soon. He then surgested it to muki.

“It’s fine really. I barely get any visitors so it would be a pleasure for you to stay.” She answered. Then when he suggested to go take a bath Muki answered by saying, “There’s this great bathhouse in the village and we’re almost there. She said pointing to a wall in the far distance.

"oh..." chiba said unexpectedly "were hear already ? It would taken me atleast a week to get here" he commented half heartedly. It was true he would have got lost or distracted either way it would have taken him a while. "the bath house sounds like a good idea though" he smiled.

“Okay then” She said excitedly. The walls in the distance started to get larger and larger until finally that we’re in the village. It was a lovely looking village despite its size. The large river cut through the village as the mountains surrounded it. “First we should drop off the chest to the administration building then we could go to the bath house” She told Chiba.

"alright then show me the way" Chiba said as she lead them both to the administration office, he stayed outside looking at how beautiful the valley was. It was so different from the dark brooding beauty that the rain was. It was a pleasant one, when muki came out. Watched her before commenting " so this bathhouse?" he smiled.

“It’s this way.” She said happily as she took Chiba’s arm. They walked now since they had to give up the cart but it was fine. The sun was shining and the birds were chirping making the whole scene peaceful.

Chiba blushed slightly as she took his arm and interlinked the, as she walked. Muki was increadibly cute. The way she acted and how she looked, no one had ever been that nice to him. The whole situation was nice as they soon reatched the bathhouse In th small village.

They entered and went to the changing rooms to get undressed. Muki was directed to the girls room while Chiba to the men’s room. She paid for a private bath with just her and Chiba. When she was completely undressed she went out to the pool of steaming water. Muki stepped inside as she waited for Chiba to come out.

Chiba came out in the towel very careful and slightly nervious, when he got to the bathe the towel came off and he was in the bathe quicker than the he could see with almost no ripples. Sinking in deep, embarrassed another his scars and being with muki. In a private bath! He could believe it.

She could see his nervousness and just giggled. She swam in closer to him so that they were side by side. “The water is great huh” She said with a smile trying to start a conversation.

"yeah" Chiba said, bubbles forming as he spoke.mlips being slightly under the water. He hated his scars , she would thing them gross. And the patch of skin that had been stretched and dragged over his shoulder blade for his missing arm. Plus he was naked and so was she, he reddened as he relised that. "better than the ones in the rain" he mumbled.

“You have one in the rain!?” She said exited not knowing they had one. “I should have visted it.” She said with a smile. Then she noticed how he was mostly underwater. She deiced to play along and she put her head down halfway like his.
