"Hey, why don't you get out of town for a while? It might be good for you. You could go home for sometime and relax too." Kakashi ran his fingers through his grey hair from front to the back. He was careful with his choice of words and tried making them sound helpful rather than forceful.

The interior of Kakashi's room was decent, small decor for the simple life. Not many visitors enabled this small need of things inside. But there was one guest that seemed to keep popping up in times of need. This wasn't unusual, due to their odd friendship.
A bond from pain brought them to become friends of a life time.

A woman looking to be a few years younger than Kakashi, sat on the edge of his bed with her elbows on her knees and her head down. Her eyes maintained focus on the floor rather than Kakashi. He was looking away and sorting some papers out while still speaking directly to her. 

She met his gaze after looking up sharply. Her bright red eyes, glowing as if they were on fire, fixated onto his one eye, "Everyone in this village still is just trying to get rid of me. Again and again. Now I'm forced to meet with the Hokage every week like everyone else. I think all of this is just another way for them to keep a closer eye on me, while still keeping me away from everything else I care about. This is my home. I live here... and yet I am a prisoner here..." 

"Isn't it similar to growing up in the Hokage's office?" Kakashi gave a small look over his shoulder as he put his stack of papers away in a drawer. 

She dropped her gaze down again and sighed. "That's not what I mean... After attempting to quit the Anbu this year, they gave me the title of Sensei instead. Of course you already know this, but its hardly besides the point. They want me to leave, but they won't let me leave. I don't understand it. And the fact that I don't even have any students. I ask when I'll be receiving any and they just ignore me or say 'It takes time to create teams' I'm just so frustrated with them."

"After quitting the Anbu Black Ops, I too became a Sensei. Not much different than you. Besides all I'm trying to say, is that you can't just camp at my house all the time," Kakashi leaned his back against the wall and crossed his arms lazily. "You know, you can't follow me around anymore with my team like we did last year. For... Reasons. I'm sure the rest of the Anbu's and other villagers won't like you being around you know who while I teach. And, even having those two working together finding out things that will ruin this village."

"You always fail your groups after the first test! What makes you think this group will pass?" The lady stood up and crossed her arms, as well as making her well endowed chest seem bustier.

"Well, there are two reasons: One," he held up his pointer finger, "Naruto Uzumaki, two," he held up his middle finger as well, "Sasuke ... Uchiha." The lady sat back down and scooted herself back against the wall. Her gaze met the window and the trees outside. The unnecessary pause seemed to cause a whirlwind of tension in the room. "Jynx, I'm sorry. I am sure you can follow us around but you cannot be seen by the team... I'm sure even if you were to-"

"What exactly are you sure about?" Cutting his sentence off before he could say anything more to piss her off, her words came out extremely sharp. Sharper than the strongest shinobi's blade cutting you right down the back.

Kakashi watched as Jynx began carefully taking sections of her hair that wasn't in her braid that was around and down her back. She nervously started to comb out small parts with her fingers leaving her hair to be tangle free and silky smooth. "I'm sure- No. I know you're in pain. I'm sorry. I don't mean to kick you out, I just want you to get some rest and not be pushed around by the elders here. you know the rest of the people love you here."

"Well, I certainly know the majority of the people don't like me. They despise me. Want me dead, ahem, dead for sure this time. Not a faked death... I guess it wasn't faked really at all. So, would that make things almost twice?" Jynx eyed Kakashi's door, suspecting people outside, "So I take it that they got the bells?"
