Separate Encounter: Dreams Deferred

The morning dew was finding its way on to the suspecting ground. As a man walked on the blades of grass in the Land of Rice. The wind left a small wave like pattern on the ground as it traveled past. Raido X sauntered through the grass as he enjoyed the view of this morning sunrise.

They say the early bird gets the worm, so what does a early shinobi get for all his trouble nothing, not even breakfast. Raido said as he felt his stomach growl slowly. Had he just packed more for this trip he would have this problem, or maybe if he warped he would be where we he trying to go. No somewhere in the mind of this ninja walking the path less traveled seemed like a good idea.

Unfortunately for him, there disturbance would not just be internal, but it was about to get external and very physical. Raido caught a fresh scent of the dukkha of someone approaching fast from his 3 o clock. The source he sensed was rather conflicted within itself looking heavy for revenge and has intense Killing Intent.

As the figure came into view he saw a man with white hair with a crazed red eye glare on Raido, he was clearly pissed, and his outfit said no life. This man was Terrax from Tsuki no Ai. A group that was thought to have since disbanded since Fa' rao was gone.

You I have tracked and traced your chakra for days, I am the last of Tsuki no AI and you took Fa' rao from me, I will defend him and restablish what his dream was and see it through. Also get revenge for my grandmother you killed in Otogakure. Tell me why, WHY did she deserve to die. Terrax yelled, the conflicted soul he carried was worn well on his face.

It had been a while since someone had a bone to pick with him about Otogakure, but Raido was quick to express his sorrow for his actions of a time long since past.

Uhhhhhh guess im a few years to short to say im sorry, so Ill go head and say im sorry. Raido said trying to console the disgruntled ninja. Those days are behind me, and I attacked Oto because they attacked someone dear to me. I didn't think about the rammifications it would have on others, so when I say your grandmothers day was nothing personal, you would know I was lying. Raido said kidding around.

GRRR what about Fa' rao my mentor did he deserve to die too, all he wanted to do was bring peace upon this wretched world. Yet he rose to slay him in cold blood. Terrax said tears rolling down his face, emotion and grief overtaking him.

Fa' rao was special case, he wanted to drag the world with him, and I dont play follow the leader, I respected his goals, the way he went about it, meh not so much. Also I keep hearing this I killed Fa' rao I didnt kill him, I sealed him. Into a tree, you see what I did there. Raido said as his emotion never changed.

Terrax was not amused far from it,m if anything the man's lack of seriousness began to rub Terrax as sarcasm. You think this is funny Raido, HUH, you took everything form me, my guardian, and my mentor. Those 7 years ago I should have killed you, but no Raizo and Fa' rao wanted you alive and now look at them. Raizo betrayed us to live a village life, and Fa'rao is dead. Tearrax yelled

He's not dead he's-

HE AINT HERE!! Terrax yelled eve louder at Raido. Terrax said loud enough to wake all of the sleeping nature and sealed people across this land.

Hey hey keep it down, it still early, no need to shout im standing right next to you. Raido said waving his arms trying to get his anger to calm down.

ENOUGH YOUR MOUTH Terrax dashed forward like a madman trying to tear Raido apart.
