Morning

*Mito fluttered her eyes opened and held her stomach, she groaned feeling a big bruise on there*

Mito:what happened last....

*Mito woke up completely in a jump, a mistake really but she had adrenaline coursing through her veins to help ignore the pain, the events of last night still playing in her mind.*

Naruto:fumikomu ze akuseru kakehiki wa nai sa sou dayo yoru wo nukeru

*She heard the man singing from outside, glanced around and got out of the make shift shelter the stranger made for them, he saw set man sitting next to a fire place cooking what can only be breakfast.*

Naruto: nejikomu sa saigo ni sashihiki zero sa sou dayo hibi wo kezuru, kokoro wo sotto hiraite gyutto hiki yosetara
todoku yo kitto tsutau yo motto sa aa

Mito:uh, good morning?

*Naruto glanced at the red hair girl and then looked back at the food*

Naruto:good morning, glad to see your alright. Relatively speaking, please sit down. Food will be ready shortly, I'm making grilled fish, with some rice, orange slices and orange peel tea

Mito:t..thank you, for the food and...and for last night

*Mito said softly as she sat down and waited, Naruto gave mito a stick and to pass the time she poked the fire, looking lost*

Naruto:I'm not gonna force you into it but do you wish to speak on what happened? It might help you clear your mind

Mito: I'm...I'm not ready yet to talk about it, can...can I ask you questions?

*Naruto took the fish out the pikes and started serving them. And simply nodded his head*

Naruto:if it'll calm your nervousness go ahead, but remember that our nations are not allies so I might not be able to tell you much

Mito:i understand, kinda dumb question but to get the ball rolling, are you a samurai? Like from iron country?

*Mito saw a sense of pride behind the eyes of the man who rescued her, the man who looked almost identical to menma apart from his blond hair and lack of whiskers*

Naruto:yes. I was raised there since I was a baby

Mito:but not born there?

*Naruto pointed to her food, she nodded and they both started to eat while they talked, mito had to admit this samurai cooked a good fish*

Naruto:very perceptive, in truth I do not know my place of origin. miss Takeda only told me some old man gave me to her in a basket, that and he told me my name

Mito:and can you tell me that name?

*Naruto grabbed the tea kettle and started pouring tea for the both of them, Naruto looked up in to the sky enjoying the birds chirping*

Naruto:classified, just call me N.

Mito:ok N, they don't teach us a lot of your nation, just that your an isolationists state, and think your superior then us

Naruto:then that's a common miscommunication, we don't think we're better then you Shinobi. We know we are

*Naruto said with a small smirk, mito took a few breath to control her anger looking at the arrogant samurai looking down on her family's line of work*

Mito:ok, since you saved my life I'm just gonna let that jab go, and moved along with my questions. Why did you save me? I thought you samurai hated us

Naruto: instinct, I heard your cries for help and I believed you were a civilian in need of help, but when I realized you were a Shinobi my reasons for helping changed, I helped you because you were so young
