Omoi's personality is a bit changed here. While he maintains his original demeanor, he's also gained a bit of fame after the war and that's gotten to his head. Also, keep in mind that the characters here are aged older than how we left them in Naruto Shippuden. Karui is 23 years old while Minako and Omoi are 22 years old. Just giving you a heads up so you guys don't freak out if they do talk about mature subjects in this chapter and in further chapters.

Nagamaki- a traditional Japanese sword which blade has a length of two or more feet with a handle of equal length.

Katana- a Japanese sword with a curved, single-edged blade with a circular or squared guard and long grip to accommodate two hands.

"Do I need to ask?" Karui questions, raising her eyebrows at me as she smirks. "Or are you just gonna tell me?"

"Tell you what?" I tie my thick blonde hair in a high ponytail. Loose wavy curls fall to my shoulders as I ease myself down to sit on one of the wooden benches sandwiched between the steel lockers in the KISU Women's Locker Room.

A couple of lockers away from us, where two large wicker baskets filled with fresh white bath towels are, I see a handful of kunoichis and agents dressing in their standard grey and white sparring tunic, fastening their grey sandals and chattering about with easy smiles on their faces. It wasn't long ago that I used to be like them. But now, with the cards that I've been dealt with lately, I can't afford to be so carefree.

"Ahem." Karui scratches her throat to get my attention.

I turn around to see my best friend in her standard white and grey uniform with her large golden eyes peering at me.

"Tell me what I just witnessed a while ago?" Karui gives me a grin and turns to her open locker and I notice her straight vermilion colored hair had grown past her neck and is now well onto her shoulders.
