Over the coming months, Kideme had never forgotten what happened. Bit by bit, she did slowly begin to remember some of the things she did before going out cold for the rest of the battle. According to Duke, they had been given special instructions by the tail keeper, Raijin to go forth into Amegakure. Kideme was somewhat of a lucid dreamer when unconcious and she very vaguely remembered getting the telepathic message, but between him and Shien Kideme knew what they had to do. She and Duke discussed this a couple times, and at first she was hesitant on going. The guilt she had for what happened still ate at her but by her not going now would have meant her friends fighting would have been a partial waste. Things changed, however, when during an outing with him, his sister and her date Duke seemed to have one of those coronary episodes again. He was taken to the hospital and admitted for an indefinite stay.

That put a huge damper and setback to their plans and Kideme didn't feel right going without him. Naturally, with them having grown closer, she came to visit him often to see how he was doing and always brought him pink and yellow roses fresh from the tea house garden whenever she came. So today after a visit to the hospital and a short hosting shift at the tea house, Kideme was at home, sitting in the salon thinking over a cup of tea when there was a knock at the door. "Who could that be?" She said allowed while getting up. It was extremely rare Kideme had ever gotten any visitors, but she knew that whoever it was, they were looking for her, and was likely one of her friends. But imagine her surprise when it was none other than Duke at the door. ".....They let you out already?" She looked at him with a bit of concern. Kideme was dressed in a kimono but thankfully she always kept her shinobi threads pressed and together with her tools and weapons. "Give me five minutes then, tops." Allowing him to come in, Kideme sprinted through the house, up the stairs and into the master bedroom of the house. She just about tore open her obi to yank off her kimono but her doryung and white linen pants went on with a snap and so did her accessories.

With strapping on her shamisen, slipping her tool-belt of an obi around her waist, and grabbing Winky and her hammer, Kideme ran back downstairs and hurried out the door, pulling Duke along by the wrist. "Duke, you shouldn't be going on this, you need to rest, this won't be good for your heart. Who else is going besides Hayato?" Kideme asked while locking the door and following his lead as she tied Winky to her belt noose and dropped her, snapping her hammer to its magnetic leg harness on her left thigh.
