Keiko walked along the edge of the village of Iwa, her headband tied neatly around her waist. Her kama's placed in their holsters on either side of her hips and her hands touching the top of the cool blade. Her short black hair falling into her dark eyes as she walked, having nothing to do in particular.
She walked with no purpose, just there to walk because she could. She stared at her feet, counting every five steps she took. It kept her calm and listening to the sounds around her, a rather weird thing she had taken up in doing. It helped her concentrate for some odd reason. She didn’t question it, if it worked then she would do it.
Kei stopped at a small clearing that was a bit into the surrounding area, it was only a few meters wide and a few long, but it was nice. The grass was a pale green or tan color about knee high to one her size. She was rather short for a seventeen year old, only standing at 4’9” in height. She might have been short, but it wasn’t too bad of a disadvantage for her.
She walked to the middle, before folding her legs under herself and closing her eyes. The quiet surrounded her and it was rather nice to not hear the noise of the streets. Kei took a deep breath as the wind blew through the trees, making the forest come alive with sound and movement, though she didn’t watch the movement. She just listened to the moving world around her in quiet, her hands folded neatly in her lap and head tilted towards the ground.

Itachi Uchiha, hat on, was traversing the forest on the way to an open spot in which to perform the Astral Projection Technique. As he got deeper into the forest, Itachi sensed a high concentration of chakra. Not a tremendous amount, but more than an average person.
Itachi stopped, 'should he find its source?' Or continue on his path? He looked down at his hands, seeing his 'Crimson' Akatsuki ring. He also noticed the black nail polish on his fingers. He put his hands down and adjusted his black Akatsuki robe.
'The chakra might be coming from a Hunter-nin and if so, they must have tracked me somehow. If I kill the Tracker, then I can't be followed.'
Itachi remembered what he was doing in the first place. He looked up and began to walk again.

Reisuke being a ninja who once hailed from the land of Earth,took a stroll through a lust forest.He praticed his sound jutsu by playing his flute.He felt a ill omen though.Knowing it was something wrong he activated Akumamoosoo."What is this i feel?".He looks around him so see if anyone powerful was by him.Thats when he spotted a person with a black robe,embedded with red clouds."Unusual?".He flashsteps to the side of a tree and peeks around the corner to keep a watch on this ninja."Who is this?".He places his hand around his Katana and prepares for the persons next movement...

Itachi becomes aware of another chakra presence, more powerful than before. 'This person has about the same chakra as an ANBU...' He immediatly stopped. He should just keep going, he doesn't want to keep the others waiting. He sighs and continues to walk, yet this time, he's paying careful attention to his surroundings incase of an ambush. He slows his pace considerably, thinking whether he should activate his Sharingan to see exactly where this chakra is, but he decides not to. He resumes walking.

As Keiko sat in silence, she became aware of the new sounds the the forest. Very silent, almost as if nothing was making them, though she didn't believe that. Her eyes opened and her hands were already on the top's of the Kama's. The cold blade didn't even faze her as she listen once more.
Two of them. She guessed in her head and listened again to see the direction. As she head one move she turned in the direction and ran silently, almost impossible to hear. Being small did have its advantages.
As she moved swiftly, she pulled the kama's out of their holders, readying them in her hands for whatever was ahead.

Itachi felt the weaker chakra presence rushing towards him. He stopped for a second, then carried on walking a little quicker than before. 'If that is a Hunter-nin, they'll probably bring backup.' Itachi decided to walk instead of staying.
((Sorry for the shortness))

Shinsuke having escaped a squad of elite hunter-nin just days earlier was now wandering around searching for someplace to hide and lay low for a few days. He had his Sekigan activated as usual and had made a detection barrier around him. The barrier normally extended to a diameter of about fifty meters, but he was cautious and extended it to over 100 meters. As he walked he sensed a chakra level that was high; dangerously high. He stopped and tried to determine which direction the chakra was coming from. As he did so, he felt another presence just as strong. He wasn't sure if they were hunter-nin as they were more powerful than any he had encountered before or if they were missing-nin like him. Now very cautious, Shinsuke made a small barrier around himself which would defend slightly against ranged weapons. He continued walking.

Keiko slid to a stop when she saw a figure walking, more quickly like they were on to her. She jumped into a nearby tree, pressing her back to its trunk as she took deep, low breaths. She leaned out a bit, just so that she could look over at the person walking. Her grip tightened on the Kama’s handles, noticing she couldn’t recognize them. She took in the black cloak and that made her stiff, she knew something about it, but she couldn’t recall anything.
She listened, and then heard the other once she picked up on, though she couldn’t see them. Who were they? She wanted to know, because this was her village and if they were to cause harm, she would protect it. It was her duty, as a shinobi.
