"Why are you so uptight?" She asked, crouching on a rock. "Not everything is a joke, but the more you let the little things get to you, the weaker you are. If they bounce right off, if they don't slow you down, the stronger you are. It's all in how you deal with things." A low, testy tone entered Lenore's voice. "But there is one or two things about which I am serious.... deadly..... serious."

"I'm so uptight because I choose to be. When I'm around friends, I can laugh. But when some strage little girl is making assumptions about me, I tend to loose sight of humour." Otomeken walked out of the water and began to pick up her things. There was a faint red glow from her chest, but she seemed to be ignoring it for the moment...

Lenore blinked and looked down at herself, not that much smaller than Otomeken... "Little?" She whispered, while Otomeken was talking. Lenore sat on the rock. "WEll, then I guess you jump to conclusions. I'm not making assumptions. I'm only sharing what I've heard. That's all. If all that gets to you, so easily.... well... heh... anyway." Lenore waved it away. "I get the impression you don't laugh much though.... or that you don't have many friends." She studied her nails and shrugged. "But then, it's just an observation..." She looked Otomeken dead in the eye, weather the girl could see her or not. "The purpose of this meeting was that I wouldn't any longer jump to conclusions. I have all the information I need. So, I'll leave it at this." She stood up on the rock, and looked down on Otomeken in more ways than one. "You're not worthy to be Kaliri's friend. She doesn't say so. After meeting you, I say so. No one who runs away from the truth about themselves so much is worthy to look her in the eyes, so it is a good thing you keep your eyes closed. So far as I'm concerned, your mother should have drowned you as a child. However; Kaliri feels differently, so I will not start trouble with you. I will let her be around you. But if you ever so much as make her shed another single tear, if she EVER has reason to cry outside her own Naiive stupidity, I will never forgive you." She grabbed a sharp peice of rock, and sliced her hand open. "I swear; if you ever hurt her again, I will hunt you as I hunt my sister: thoroughly, passionately, and to the end of days, may your spirit remain restless." She squeezed a few drops out of her hand, and flung them to the ground at Otomeken's feet. "FOr the wise council you've forsaken." SHe intoned. She spit in the centre of the bloodspots on the ground. "And the hopes that you will come to heed it." Lenore turned and settled back into the hotspring with an unmistakable air of dismissal.

Unless Lenore had been expecting to get Otomeken mad enough to attack and still had the reflexes of a wild bird of prey, she would be spilling more blood than from just her hand. Otomeken whipped around, the blade on her arm suddenly growing to well over 20' long, very much meaning to leave a scar on Lenore's cheek, but nothing more than a flesh would was meant, just enough to draw a little more blood. "You need a lesson in manners 'Little girl.' Otomeken said arrogantly, daring her to say another word about Otomeken's mother...

Lenore was taken aback, and her eyes widened, but the moment she saw Otomeken was contented to do no more than what she'd already, she relaxed and wore a mocking smile, snickering at her. "No, you just deserve none." She grinned again. "SO, is this somehting else you were taught by your family? Anger without thought? They must have all been as weak as you are." This time, Lenore was prepared for whatever it was going to be.She gathered her leg muscles beneath her, and prepared to spring.

A hand would be felt on Otomeken's and Kumar's shoulders as two masked Anbu appread out of what seemed nowhere.
"Is there a problem?" As the one behind Kumar. Neither seemed to be holding tight onto the person they had there hands on but you got the feeling that if either of them tired to attack the other or do something stupid they'd be stopped before they could act.

Otomeken gritted her teeth as the curse seal on her chest glowed brightly. "Yes." She said honestly, but restrained from taking any further action, not wanting to go back to jail for another person's life. "Someone needs to teach that no-body her place in society... And I welcome the opurtunity to be that instructor..." Otomeken said viciously, slowly pulling her blade back to it's normal size rather than slice the woman's head in half with it...

Lenore snickered. "No, actually. This weakling simply has no concept of what strength really is, and I was attempting to enlighten her. However, if she insists on leaving her head in the fog, she'll die soon enough without any of our help." She sneered. "I'll tell you one thing, though, this was not my intention. Nor was it what I was ordered to do... I like this much better."

"Otomeken you have been warned about fighting. You will be punished for this." The masked man hlding her said and then they turned to kumar. "You will watch your tounge. If you do not learn you respect those of a higher rank then you, you will get no where. You will also be punished for this ugly outburst." He said to them.

Otomeken knew better than to argue with an ANBU, especially one giving a lecture about respecting those of a higher rank. She wanted to echo his sentiments, but now was not the time. Instead, she obediantly bowed her head and said only, "Sir." Affirming that she would be no trouble to him...

Lenore shrugged. She raised herself up to her full height, which was largely unimpressive. She looked the ANBU as close to in the eye as she could, and just simply asked, in a voice as light as the wind. "And what rank, pray tell, would I be considered?" She raised an eyebrow to emphasize her point. A little ghost of a grin passed over her face. Naked as she was, she showed absolutely no embarrassment to be caught that way.

The ANBU didn't seem to care weather she was naked or not. Gender ment nothing to them. Not when on the job. His head tilted as Kumar seemed to trying to provoke something here but he answered her question bluntly and without remorse. "You have no ranking. You are nothing more then a little girl with a big mouth."

Otomeken slyly smiled, wanting to add so much more to that, but had to play it cool... An ANBU was no one to screw with. Though part of her dared this other thing to try the ANBU's patience, just so she could see what would happen...

Lenore shrugged. "If that is how you see me, that must be all I am..." Her tone clearly held some modicum of distain for anyone short-sighted enough to believe that. Then, suddenly, it changed. "I'm sorry if I have offended you personally. I didn't realize I'd done anything to make you angry. What is it, exactly, that you require from me now? Am I to go with you, or may I be allowed to go on my way? I only came to deliver a message, and this ... " Her mouth twisted in disgust as she threw Otomeken a sneer. "Blinded madwoman attacked me."

kumar got backhanded across the face. she could see the look on the persons face who hit her because they were both masked. "The first thing you will both be doing is apologize to eachother." He said. Kumar didn't seem to know when to keep her mouth shut and realize her position. Otomeken wasn't happy either about this whole thing but she knew better then to keep anything going when they had been forced to stop already by high ranking ninja's. Otomeken would have to control her reaction however. If she said anything about kumar getting hit in this manner she as next.
