Hayato didn't seem to sense anything out of the ordinary if a hut in the middle of the woods could be considered ordinary that is. She frowned and sat there for a moment pondering Hayato's input before speaking up "We'll check it out, there's a strong chance that whoever is inside that house might have some information, I'd rather not go any deeper towards Kirigakure blind" She grinned and punched his shoulder "Stay on guard though" She said with a strong and confident tone as she marched up towards the hut.

Before she even got a chance to knock on the door it swung open and an elderly lady stepped out and greeted them hello. The sudden action had caught Aurora so off guard she jumped back and screamed! She seemed to be almost cowering behind her hands before she opened one eye and let out an embarrassed chuckle when she spotted the old woman. She rubbed the back of her head and bowed in polite greeting "Good Afternoon Obāsan" Aurora stood up straight and gave a nod “Quite curious, yeah” she gave a laugh as she stepped in at the old woman’s little joke. “Hayato, have a look about, stock up if you need to”

The old woman mentioned throwable items, in particular an acid based explosion, which caught Aurora’s attention the most. She wandered over the left side of the hut and eventually found the ones the old woman spoke about. She looked at them closely “So I just throw the vial and BANG? That seems useful; does it burn more than just flesh? You know, like rock and what not? It could be used as a nifty escape tool” She grabbed two vials and kept looking “Have you got any sort of smoke bomb variants? You know, like a corrosive gas smoke bomb?” If the answer was yes she’d stock up with 3 of those before heading to the counter. While exchanging money for poisons (it was quite lucky she always had some of Mugen’s money on her as well as her own money earned over the years) she exchanged small talk hoping for some information “Hey Obāsan, Someone living so far out must know some things right? Has there been any interesting information going about? Villages growing in power, that sorta thing?” After the transaction she would pocket the corrosive gas bombs in her ninja pouch (If she got them) and after giving the vials a check for sturdiness she would tuck them away in a more secure part of the pouch where they were less likely to break. She would hang around to gather anymore information before bowing once more and stepping outside to wait for Hayato. “Take care Obāsan! Thank you!”

Once Hayto was with her they would head off once more. As they travelled further from the wood witches house nature began to return, but Aurora noticed that the sounds seemed … almost wrong. She gave a shudder, “You got anything Hayato?” Aurora wouldn’t be able to sense and chakra signals but as they got closer she would soon be able to see the mist that hung in the air “Careful. If it smells like roses it’s the Steam Demon. Regardless, Kirigakure was known for using the mist” Aurora would lead Hayato just off the path and into surrounding bush, crouching low “We need to start approaching more carefully, two Konohagakure nin wandering around isn’t safe, IF Kiri is really back we’ll be killed on sight, or worse, imprisoned” she shuddered, she’d like to avoid capture at all costs. “We could use the transformation technique when we get closer, disguise ourselves as wanderers or maybe as drunkards? Something inconspicuous.”
