Aoba : akuyu! .... oh. Kakashi-san. Hi.
Kakashi: hi.
Akuyu : yes it's me. What?
Aoba: nothing... You just look different.
Akuyu: you mean less scary.
Aoba: something like that.
Akuyu: what?
Aoba: there's this person we want you to help crack open.
Akuyu: call inoichi. He's skills are less troublesome than mine isn't it?
Aoba: well he's in a festival with his family...
Akuyu: right. I don't have anyone.
Aoba: that's not what I meant...
Akuyu: that's what you meant.
Kakashi pats her head " don't be mean. "
Akuyu: ok ok. I'll help .
__________________________________Akuyu: I'm so requesting double wages for this. I was having fun.
Aoba: um... I'll talk to the hokage...
Akuyu enters the room and closes the door behind her.
Kakashi: she's not that scary you know.
Aoba: that's what you say. I don't understand how you and gai hang out with her.
Kakashi: she just seems cold. She's not really.
Aoba: that's what gai said. And what her teammates said. But I rather believe what her teammates say.
Kakashi: say that she's still dark. And kinda scary?
Aoba: not to cross her lines and it will be fine they said. How would I know where are her lines.
She came out of the room " done. She's talked already. "
Aoba: erm... Thanks.
Akuyu: ritsu!!
Ritsu appears " ha ha... Got caught..."
Akuyu: this level of prisoner. You could have done it yourself. Did you try your best?
Ritsu: well... I wasn't requested.
" I see... " She walked towards ritsu and looked into her eyes with dead eyes " so next time I think you didn't request for me to save your life. I shouldn't. Like that? "
Ritsu: gomen... Gomenasai!!
Akuyu pats her head " do these kind of things yourself next time. Don't rely on me forever."
Ritsu: hai...
Akuyu looks to aoba " double wages."
Aoba: o...ok.
Akuyu waves goodbye " going home. Your punishment stands. Ritsu."
Ritsu: hai...
__________________________________Kakashi: you didn't have to be that mean to ritsu.
Akuyu: I had a rare holiday!! Rare!! A rare holiday I have a reason to relax for!!
Kakashi: If you wanted ritsu to improve, you didn't have to do that to her. I could tell she was genuinely afraid.
Akuyu: I ...
He hugged her " it's ok. Change slowly."
Akuyu: kakashi wants me not to be a monster?
Kakashi: you want to be?
She squeezes back " what if... It's not possible..."
Kakashi: you asked me to be your leash. At least trust me.
She squeezes harder " um... Kakashi..."
Kakashi: hm?
Akuyu: I accidentally... Made the prisoner crazy... That's why she talked...
He squeezes her " you'll change. Slowly."
