Rivaling Bloodlines Cross

The diner had been relatively talkative. Lots and lots of sound waves emitted across the small facility. The waitress approached the bar slowly sliding a neatly folded napkin in front of a young man. His face was masked only by the hoodie he wore, but you could still get a slight glimpse. His skin was different from those around him, much more darker than the woman who'd approached him. She leaned against the bar with her forearm and attempted to stare at the man under his hood. She began tapping on her chin contemplating what to do next.

"Hm.." She sighed finally giving up. "You've been here for quite some time you haven't ordered anything." There was a short silence. "Call me when you're ready." The woman took off the the other side of the bar to help another customer.

The young man reached into his pocket and pulled out a folded piece of paper. He unfolded it and laid it out on the bar, revealing it to be a map of the shinobi world. "It seems I'm here in the . I have two directions I can take to reach my destination. A, I can leave from this land and go by water. Or, B, make my way through the Hidden Rain, Grass, and Waterfall." He let off a slight sigh. "Neither one of these options are ideal for swiftness." Dragging his finger through the option he set as "B" he began to observe the lands. "Although, this way I may be able to gain a few helping hands." He took a deep breath and finally called the woman over to him.

"Ah, so you're ready to order now?" She jokingly smiled.

"I'll take a bowl of fruit." He responded.

"A bowl of fruit? I mean, we don't actually sell anything like that, but I'm sure we can make it work. Give me just a second."
