As the sun was setting, the duo Kayle and maru finally arrived at the main gate of Kirigakure, five guards were visible and in charge of monitoring the people coming in or going out.
Guard: "Hello, I see you have a Konoha headband, are you here for a mission or another reason ?"
Kayle: "Hi! I'm part of the roaming squad, here is the proof"
Kayle showed his wooden leaf collar to the guard, after a quick inspection the guard nodded.
Guard: "Good, and what's the reason for your visit ?"
Kayle: "I'm here to relax and rest for a few days before... I'm a little tired of sleeping on the hard ground every night"
The guard nodded as he started preparing the paperwork, he was already notified about this particular ninja earlier and he was given several instructions.
Guard: "Welcome to Kirigakure, here you will have to follow our laws, if you breach any of them you will also be punished according to our laws"
The guard gave Kayle a few documents as he continued his explanation.
Guard: "This is a little book the laws that you have to be extra careful with, it will be retrieved once you leave our village, and this document is a three-day pass for your stay in the village, you will have to get it stamped every day, did you understand everything? do you have any questions ?"
Kayle: "Thanks for everything but what if I need to stay a few days longer?"
Guard: "You can prolong the pass at the same place you get it stamped"
Kayle: "Perfect! did we complete everything? am I free to go in ?"
Guard: "You can go inside but you will have to wait for a guide to bring you around the village, Lately we have augmented the security as there is a small festival in one month, and we can't let people from outside the village wander alone"
Kayle nodded and followed the guard's instructions, he got a little suspicious as having a guide was not a common practice, most of the time guides were attributed to only VIPs or powerful ninjas coming inside the village to make sure they can't easily snoop around.
After waiting for a few minutes at the designated spot, he couldn't help but gawk at his guide.
it was a red heard girl with green eyes that he could easily recognize.
Kayle: "..."
Terumi Mei: "Hello! I'm Terumi Mei, I will be your guide while you stay at our village be sure to ask me for anything you need"
Kayle: "Terumi Mei? you have such a beautiful name" *smiles awkwardly*
Terumi Mei: "Ara Ara~~ what a sweet little Ninja"
Kayle: 'Don't Ara Ara me... I would be a fool to fall in your small tricks... I know you can melt people with a simple kiss'
Kayle: "hehe thank you, big sister! well I'd like an Inn to stay in for the night and maybe have a meal there, I'm quite tired now and I just arrived "
Terumi Mei: "Oh! perfect I know a very good Inn not too far away"
Terumi Mei got closer to Kayle as she whispered in his ears.
Terumi Mei: "You can relax your body all you want there, and you can even let this big sister give you a massage"
Kayle got cold sweat on his back as he felt his face blushing slightly...
Kayle: 'This Damn old woman... dose she has no shame talking like this to a twelve-year boy? I know Ninjas are considered adults but still... I'm not used to it'
Terumi Mei: 'hehe this Konoha Ninja looks cute while blushing and he kind of handsome... I will make sure to complete my mission perfectly and make him spill every secret he has'
Kayle: "It's so kind of you big sis! but I don't want to brother you... let's go to the inn"
Terumi Mei: "Well follow me~~"
Terumi winked at Kayle as she started walking in front of him while moving her hips a little more than necessary, Kayle followed behind her while enjoying the view until they reached the Inn.
Once Inside Terumi booked a room for Kayle and asked for a meal for two people to be directly delivered into his room.
As Kayle got inside the room Terumi followed him inside without even asking permission and sat down in front of him.
Terumi Mei: "I hope you don't mind us eating together? I thought this way you can ask me any questions you may have or you could tell me what you'd like to do in Kirigakure so I can make a few arrangements for you"
Kayle looked at Mei feeling a little frustrated, he already had time to analyze what was happening and he determined that everything that was happening was due to him showing some of his strength during the last mission, he knew that Kirigakure should be investigating the reason behind his stay and decided to try to appear as little suspicious as he could.
Kayle: "No it's totally fine! I will enjoy my meal a lot more with your company big sister"
Kayle: 'I will behave to appear as innocent as possible'
Terumi Mei: "Thank you so much~~ I want you to feel welcomed here, and I will do everything you want, is there any way I can help you?
Terumi Mei: 'I know you are plotting something, I will make sure you won't be able to complete any mission while you stay here'
