To the quiet humming of birds tapped the soles of his Shinobi boots, never  knowing there were eyes stalking him in the shadows. 



 While sniffing his nose Ren walked out of the village and began descending down a large mountain with a stairway etched from its surface. There were many rocks, corners, nooks and slits for one to hide in but Ren didn't pay mind to anything. Whether due to absence of mind, or due to not being one to worry, one was but to guess, as the Haruno Jounin finally walked over another long rope bridge with sturdy logs bolted between the ropes.



 The wood croaked under his feet as a thick mist began to obscure him while he was halfway across walking over a 300 yard drop. With the winds ever howling the bridge swayed from side to side yet the Haruno seemed to mind no mind whatsoever as his thoughts were on something completely different and his body automatically kept itself on balance as if it were a second nature.



 "That scent...."



 It finally became clear, as he was able to place it at last, that mysterious and refreshing scent. Again he sniffed his nose, catching a very feint fragrance of unusual plants and flowers. He actually knew this scent very well because he walked past the very same scent every morning. But without thinking much of it Ren just moved on to the end of the bridge unless something unusual happened.



On the other side, in the distance, spotted vaguely through the mist, one could make out what looked to be a food cart with several people surrounding it. This was one of Ren's usual stops where he got his morning meal and latest rumors.
