The sun was half eaten by the tree's as the sound of doors closing signal the end of the day for some shops. Under the shadow of several tall buildings a small medical shop was letting its main staff go home as the skelton crew would remain. As the door open one more final time a siloulet of a man stood in the door as he waved to the people inside and spoke. "Take care of those indgreints, it won't be till another month till more will be ready for use ok?" He closed the door as a man with hair like a bush streched out a window and spoke aloud. "You know one of these days you should drop in on your family.." He simply shooked his head and walked away as the man sighed as he knew this was the answer he was going to get. It is the answer he always got from him. With a small snack draped over his back he turned towards the forest and not towards residence area like most would be heading to now.

At the edge of the forest, Haru would find his path blocked by a shadowy figure standing just at the edge of the trees. It seemed as though it had been waiting for him for some time.

He contuined to walk forward till he stopped by the edge of her shadow. He stared forward as his eyes were a mysterious blue, almost of another relam. "Has the Lily of the valley returned?" He seemed to be his old self by giving people he knew names of certain flowers.

Oki stepped from the shadows and smiled at him. She certainly wasn't her old self, with a variety of visible bruises at various stages of healing. The most prominent was a large, dark bruise running across her neck. She walked forward to embrace Haru.
"She is," she said softly. "Good to see you again, Haru."

Haru held her for a moment as he pulled away as he looked her over again. "I see you haven't been over doing things, may I inquire how you got such injuries or are these the daily activities the job we have come with?" He started to rumage in his bag for a moment as to find something that was berried away at the bottom.

"mission went bad," Oki explained, understating the situation entirely. "The man who hired the Hidden Leaf to retrieve his daughter also hired the Sand for the same job and there was... a disagreement. I'm in better shape now, after a few days in the hospital, than I was when I came home but I'm still not sleeping."

"Hmmmm not sleeping as well..." Hharu placed his bag down as he kneeled down and started to open a side bag. A moment later he stood up with a small slim can that looked like it was for shoe polish and the other one looked like a small bottle of perfume. "Here apply this to any sore muscles but only a little! a small drop on your finger should dull the pain that you rub this into. While this is not perfume but the way to apply it is some what like that. Depending on your needs spray this once or twice on your face, The scent is designed to help induce sleep. Thou I mind you this is far weaker than those sleeping pills over the counter but with this you should be able to get some sleep." He handed her the items as it looked like he was busy over the four years working on mediciens.

Oki takes the can and the bottle. "Thanks Haru, I'll try both. How have you been? It's been a long time."

"It has been far too long." He took a small breath as he twisted and looked back over the village. "I have been doing good for the most part. I get the occasional trouble maker or two but most things that happen here are not my concern really. Just when someone needs help its better not to ask questions some days and help out how ever I can." He turned back to Oki as he tilted his head alittle and asked the question back to her. "How have you been these years now?"

"Busy," she laughed. "Would you believe Kurado and I only recently came back? I learned a lot, found out a lot I never knew about my family, and now I've come back to watch my life start falling apart. But it's bound to get better again; just gotta ride out the rough stuff, right?"

"Excatly, just because you have reached a winter doesn't mean you won't bloom again in the spring." He closed his bag once more as he draped it over his shoulder and spoke. "Just remember you don't have to be on your own for the worse of it all."

Oki smiled weakly. "Thanks, Haru. It's good to know I've got friends who are going to help pull me through it."

"Of course, as anyone that wants to take shelter from the crule world can easily do here." He said as he pointed to what was a tall bush. But a moment latter the bush split in two as they were actually the branches on the trees nearby. Revealing a path into the forest with the branches foraming a canopee for nice travels no matter the weather.

Oki laughed. "A moonlit walk through the forest, huh? This is just like old times, Haru."

"Alittle bit but then again there are just some old times that can't be revisted again." He said looking back at her for the moment and started on ahead the path. As the sun set fully the stars started to shine above their heads. Only a few could be seen through the branches. As a waxing moon could be seen through those holes at least. It was not one of the brighter nights but it was bright enough so the path was illuminated by the moon itself. Till they traveled farther in where the forest became more dense and the trees were blocking out the light.
