Feeling colors

Hospital examination was necessary, but Yashiro also had something else on his mind. It was possible that Inei still held loyalty to Amegakure. Afterall he had no way to check if what Inei told him was right, but on the other way there's no way that the whole 7-tails incident was acted out. Still he wanted to be on a safer side, and he was sure that others back in the village would like to test her for themselves.

Still, Yashiro couldn't possible expect to hold any connection with Konoha only after the talk, at most she could hold some hope to finally find a new home there. For now that was enough.

After talking a bit more about what she went through in academy it was time for Yashiro to wake up the next person in turn for patrol. He told Inei to sleep as she needed rest, after that he walked towards the sleeping man closer to cave entrance.

Inei woke up pretty late into the morning. Upon waking up she noticed a black haired young man sitting in front of the cave next to a campfire. He didn't notice her until she tried to get up and caused some light rustling sounds. Hearing the soft sounds he got up and walked to Inei "You shouldn't try to get up yet, Mikoto said you shouldn't push yourself too much yet. Oh right, Mikoto is the guy who patched you up. He's inside the hideout right now. My name is Kuro, Yashiro already told us that you'd be waking up today."

"Inei, and could you please help me outside? I want to sit outside for a bit." Inei slowly asked. Kuro didn't bother much with her, he picked her up and carried her out, then he set her down next to the fire and walked on the other side himself.

Inei felt a bit irritated by him carrying her so she pouted and quietly complained "I could walk here myslef, I just needed a little bit of help!". "Don't worry about it, wasn't my way faster?" Kuro laughed "You hungry?" he added before picking up a fish next to him and started to grill it over the fire. Seeing he already started to grill the fish Inei didn't say a word and waited for her food to be ready. She ate in silence, staring towards the forest in front of her.

It was around noon when a teenage girl approached Inei still sitting outside. "Inei, right? I'm Izumi, Yashiro already told me everything about you.". Izumi sat down next to Inei "So, how are you feeling?". Hearing Izumi talking to her, Inei looked at her. Izumi looked to be 15-16 years old girl, tall and slender beauty. She had athletic build, worthy of a kunoichi skilled in combat. Her sparkling eyes were green and she had long brown hair put in a ponytail. "I think saying that i feel like i got trashed by a monster sounds like a realistic answer." Inei's answer got a subtle smile from Izumi. "Yes i guess so."

2 days quickly passed. On the 2nd day of her waking up Inei looked a lot better and she started walking by herself. She mostly joined Izumi on the walks through the forest. She observed Izumi's and Yashiro's sparring sessions every day and she quickly got acquainted with all 4 member of the team.

Yashiro, was from Uchiha clan, just like Izumi. He looked to be 40 or so years old robust looking man with black hair that started to get some silver strands. His brown eyes seemed like they've seen and experienced many things.

Kuro was a black haired man. He had pretty burly build that didn't really match up with his happy-go-lucky character. He was often the center of attention making everyone laugh.

Mikoto was medical ninja. He had brown hair and skinny build. Just like Kuro he was in his 20's but his character couldnt be more different. Mikoto was a quiet man that didn't like to be in center of attention.

On the 4th day of Inei's waking up the group finally finished their task and got on their way to Konoha.

Well on the way Yashiro noticed Inei looking at all 4 of her companions, but everytime she looked at him and Izumi she seemed to be deep in thought. Seeing this going on for a while he stopped and picked her up, putting her on Izumi's back "Whats going on in your mind?".

Inei got a bit flustered with Yashiro's actions and tried to cover her embarrassment of getting caught. "N-nothing, just thinking about something." she mumbled. "How about you share those thoughts with us? I want to know why you keep looking at me like I got something on my face."

"Well it's just..." Inei didn't know how to continue. Everything she tried to say sounded weird. "You don't know how to explain oyurels?" Yashiro quickly figured her out. "Just say what you mean, I'm sure I'll be able to figure it out."

"Well it's just that i get those weird feelings around people, I never get it any mind until now, seeing you and Izumi together. It's like I'm feeling color around people. And your's and Izumi's color is weird. I've seen weird before, but your and Izumi's color is also kind of same... I don't know how to explain it." Inei was frustrated with her inability to explain her thoughts.

"And what colors you feel from us?" Yashiro seemed to understand something from Inei's words and had a look of surprise on his face.

"Well, Kuro and Mikoto are easy. Kuro feels like light green. And Mikoto feels deep blue. But you and Izumi feel like 2 colors, both of you have this bright orange, Beside orange Izumi has brown color and you have light blue color."

"Master, is this..." Izumi started to ask somethign, but got interrupted by Yashiro "Beside color do you feel anything else?"

"Well, Kuro's green feel's refreshing, Mikoto's blue feels fluid, orange that you 2 share feels scorching hot. Izumi's brown feels really hard, and your blue feels tingly and numbing." Inei further tried to explain.
