10. An Unpredictable Situation

Land of Water(Kuro Pov):

Kuro quickly made his way to the land of water. After reaching his destination he quickly started to gather information in the bar.

"Hey!.hey..Did you know?"

"What? If you want to bother someone then try someone else"

"Nah. You're the only one who can tolerate me blabbering"

The man said with annoyance "Then make it quick"

There seemed to be two ninja talking with one another, must be good friends.Kuro began to concentrate on their conversation "The new kage is searching for a way to get in between the war."

"So is there something new " said the man

"Yeah. I heard the kiri-kage sama wishes to enslave a tailed beast"

The other guy quickly smacked the blabbering man on the head and gestured him to not speak anymore.

Kuro discreetly made his way out of the bar as to not alert anyone and made his way to the hotel.

"Kiri is now getting its own bijuu. I guess that means something big is going to happen."

Kuro after nabbing the information completed his assignment. He then thought to make his way towards Uzu. But suddenly remembered

"Ah. I almost forgot to deliver the seal."

Kuro made his way to the place instructed by Hashibi. He sighed in relief that he made it in time

"Wow this place looks creepy."

The map marked a single house within the forest. The house was covered with vines and looked as though there were no signs of living. Kuro pondered if he should finish the secondary mission or not .But suddenly he saw a women come out of the house.

"Did you bring the package?"

Kuro gulped and answered "Yes. P-please confirm its contents."

The women looked at the seal the put it aside "thank you for coming all the way here. We don't have quests quite often."

The women smiled while saying the words with a smile. The smile should be reassuring but to kuro it was downright creepy and uncomfortable.

"Well you made it over here despite many problems. So here is your reward"

It was simply a mirror.Kuro became put out by receiving a mirror as a reward but nevertheless accepted the women's good will. After taking the mirror in his possession, kuro thought if the journey was worth it .He made his way outside expressing his desire to leave. The women followed to see him out

"Have a safe journey boy. The mirror will be useful for Momonga."

Kuro froze. He never said something about the mysterious boy to anyone so how did the women find out. He looked at the women to see if she was an enemy. But when he turned around she wasn't there. He looked in the surroundings to look for the house but found nothing. It is like the entire house vanished with the women in it.

Seeing the weird situation kuro got everything ready and made his journey to uzu. After reaching his home he submitted his findings to his superior and made his way towards Hashibi weapon shop.

"The job you gave me is done. I delivered the package"

Hashibi looked at Kuro weirdly and asked "What job?"

Hearing Hashibi's no recollection of the event Kuro's face became white as sheet.

That day Kuro couldn't sleep.
