There was a chill in the air of this winter’s morning, a haunting reminder of the cold that had come at night. The remains of frost still clung to the many blades of grass covering this old and familiar training ground where Kei used to come to practice as a young kid. Nowadays this was the place where he felt like he could unwind the most. His apartment was home to too many bad memories that didn’t sit well with his positive outlook on life that had grown from these nightmares the taint of which he wished to endure no more.

A light smile on his lips he gazed at his prosthetic left arm, sluggishly stretching out each finger by flowing chakra through the arm’s skeleton made of chakra-metal. It was a process he got better and better at but still he didn’t use the arm carelessly given the stamina it required to use; especially during combat where he often relied on quick bursts of speed.

“Eito… I wonder what else you have in store? How much longer till your darkness spreads? And what is it that Ikeru can possibly do… what is it that I can do?”

Thoughts continued to draw on the subject of the leader of ROOT, his plans, and how Kei was to play a part in them. The Uchiha did not want to play this part but then what choice did he have? They had already managed to put Kinshi into a coma, Kei was sure it was Eito who was behind this and didn’t like the looks on the faces of the nurses and doctors taking care of the Hokage’s daughter. There were some very curious and disturbing things happening behind the scenes.

“And only I can do something.” He said while thinking about the seal that was on his tongue even now he was no longer a part of ROOT. But before he could continue this mental dialogue and another day of looking for what to do and how to solve things, Kei would hear one or two pairs of footsteps.

They’d find the Uchiha seated against the trunk of a worn down tree, smiling in their direction, possibly holding the envelope he had sent them earlier today informing them that he’d be their substitute teacher for a short while.
