[Ploatboard] The Trek

Post by Trucro » Sun Jul 23, 2017 7:38 pm

Steam Bath Akiro and Kazuki continued walking through the brush, looking for the nearest road. The island really was an ugly thing; it was dominated by subtropical forests and swamps. As thunder cracked in the distance, the Jouchaku pushed onwards. The rain still hadn’t arrived, but the sky was dark all around. The clouds covered everything for miles, and the only remaining glimpse of sunlight was far off in the distance. That only made things harder, as the group made their way from bit of solid ground to bit of solid ground. Their trek reminded Akiro that most of the islands were just mud with some plants to hold it all together. As they made their way through the outskirts of the island, Akiro turned to Kazuki.

“What a crappy little island,” he said, half-mockingly. They had appeared to find themselves some solid ground now, and were making their way deeper into the forest. Still, the ground squished beneath their feet. Akiro had spent too much of his life moving through places like this. But, as he had no choice, he thought he’d make the best of it.

Akiro wasn’t certain what to expect from this mission. Normally, rogue ninja were outcasts, kicked out of whatever villages they wandered into for fear of damage to the people or property, unable to find shelter from the pursuing Kirigakure ninja. For one to have a following of civilians was very odd. Of course, Akiro didn’t necessarily find this weird objectively; the average people he had met were easily deceived. He was actually surprised there weren’t many more incidents of rogue ninja leading civilians astray. Perhaps there were, and he was not privy to them.

The two had been walking for some time in the woods when something caught Akiro’s eye. It was brown, but brighter than the rest of the mud. A road. He squinted as he tried to see through the trees before pointing it out to Kazuki. “Looks like we found our route.”
