After the Fourth Great Shinobi World War ended, the world was experiencing a time of peace. The villages for once were able to live in relative harmony with one another as they rebuilt, and for once, all seemed to be well. The kage were able to live peaceful lives and soon began retiring, passing on the baton to the next generations. That is until an unknown virus infects the northern coast. The first to fall is the once powerful Raikage, Ay. While many thought this virus was a simple mutation of what may have well been the flu, no one would ever think of the destruction it would cause. Especially when it infected a certain Uzumaki Naruto.
With his death came the malice; with the malice came the destruction; with the destruction came the shinobi' revolt; and with the revolt came the sacrifices. The Bijuu became filled with malice that they sought to destroy the world. Shinobi sought a way to fight them and once again capture each of the Bijuu. Time passed, and a plan was devised. The Jinchuuriki would be sacrificed for the greater good of the world, and with the deaths of nine individuals, an uneasy peace began.
As time continued, the villages began to truly restructure. In a peace that would last 80 years after the downfall of the Bijuu, the world would see the creation of a great many things. Technology was beginning to take root and before long the blossoms that grew from the tree of the advanced mind would bear fruit. A many great things came to be. A railroad between the vast many nations. Mechanical limbs to replace lost ones. Radios that could reach between villages. Everything seemed to be becoming less reliant on the shinobi. Only the need for them never truly vanished. As with the growth of time, also continued the growth of malice.
"When you took the job... I told you not to touch me no matter what, remember? It's not because I dislike contact with people... It's because of the venom in my body. The moment I touch a man who isn't a kid or a blood relative, even by mistake.... The venom comes out... Right now, it didn't."
...venom? Where the hell did she secrete venom from? Fangs? Were there venom glands? Through the skin? Now that she said it he did realize she'd completely avoided touching him, it was quite interesting, actua—
"It leaves only few options, you being a cross-dressing female, having no gender or not human to begin with, which is it? And you are obviously a human..."
All interest was immediately forgotten, and the medic bristled like a porcupine. Why was she so insistent? Cross dressing? Genderless? Not human? What. The. Fuck. Moving away from the water's edge, Yuu sat on the rock with a heavy sigh. Her question held validity, under these circumstances.
“I was born female, yes, and I have the body of one. But I am not a transvestite... I'm a transgender.” He rest his arms on his knees. “It means that even if on the outside I look like a woman, on the inside I am a man.”

"Still goes under the category of a `female dressed as male` since it completely ignores everything about the person other that the physical body condition." Lien said resting while holding her chin in a thinking position. "It's not going to change the fact that you feel as a 'he' and that i view you in the same way, but it's nice to know i can as least know that I can't poison you by a complete accident." she kept on speaking in a way that didn't give out whenever she was talking to the boy-girl Iwa nin or to herself.
Having Tiarra climb onto her place on Lien's head made the ginger remember the mega mode the spider entered the last night. "I hope Tiarra didn't freak you out too much last night... She gets very defensive of me if things go wrong..." as the girl said while petting her pet. "Oh, and by the look you had on a minute ago, I see you're curious about the venom i spoke of?"
"Still goes under the category of a `female dressed as male` since it completely ignores everything about the person other that the physical body condition." Yuu's checkered gaze narrowed at her. It's like she wanted him to be a threat. "It's not going to change the fact that you feel as a 'he' and that I view you in the same way, but it's nice to know I can as least know that I can't poison you by a complete accident."
The medic's hackles lowered a bit. She didn't have much tact, but she also didn't seem to mean harm. Yuu didn't always have the best tact either, but the girl probably didn't understand how much of a weak point that was for him. That was something he was used to though, and he tried to cool off that irritation by dipping his fingers in the water.
"I hope Tiarra didn't freak you out too much last night... She gets very defensive of me if things go wrong..."
“Oh, she didn't freak me out at all...” he commented dryly. He was not going anywhere near that spider again if he could help it. But he wouldn't blame the spider. His bees worked the same way.
"Oh, and by the look you had on a minute ago, I see you're curious about the venom I spoke of?"
Yuu ruffled the back of his purple head. Nailed right on the head.
“Yeah,” he admitted to her. “But let's finish up and leave the cave first. Do you want me to take you across before I finish gathering the lilies?”

The offer to take her across the water was nice, its not that the girl was much help with the plants this time. "That would be great!" She replied to the boy's question.
After she was on the other side she sat down on the floor and watched Yuu work. As an idea came in mind she spoke to her spider. "Please create some none-sticky threads." The girl requested her familiar.
The slightly confused spider did as she was told. When the web was the leanth Lien wanted, she took the threades and started weaving them together. The result was a thine wire like, highly elastic thread. Pulling and streaching it for testing, she saw it only streaches to ssertain point and then stops. She noded in aproval.
After tying it in loops she looked back at Yuu waiting for him to be done.
Heaving himself to his feet, Yuu stretched before going over to Lien. Picking her up was a lot easier when she consented to it, and taking her across the water went without fault. Returning, he worked on collecting the lilies. They were rather abundant here, so Yuu was able to take the time to collect a fair amount. Pocketing the kunai, Yuu carefully scooped up the lilies and carried them across the water, setting them down on the shore and eying the white rope she held.

It was interesting to see the boy noticed that she made the line. "Well, every one knows that the hardest material in the wodld is diamond. Yet, only few know that spider web is the strongest." She said and looked at the boy waiting for the look of 'ok, and?' to appear before she spoke on "Your bows line is worn out. Do your job well, and you'll get a new one that is going to serve you much longer."
With that she stood up and headed for the exit from the cave. It's a pretty place, and she knew that her sister would love it just as much as she and Yuu did. Better remember the location. She'll need to point it out on Yuu's map as well after their done.
"Our next target is the last one. For me its almost to close to Iwa, for you, it's a shotcut home. Make sure to inform me if we are getting close to your clan's radar. I don't trouble." After saying that she made a small jump, caught the edge of the hole they used as the door the day before and pulled herself out.
"Well, every one knows that the hardest material in the wodld is diamond. Yet, only few know that spider web is the strongest."
Yuu raised a brow, waiting for her point to be made.
"Your bow's line is worn out. Do your job well, and you'll get a new one that is going to serve you much longer."
Immediately the archer pulled the bow from his back, inspecting the line. It was, indeed, worn. It was impressive that Lien could notice that.
“Wow, that's really cool! I didn't know you could use spider silk like that.”
He put the weapon back in its holster as she stood, watching her.
"Our next target is the last one. For me it's almost too close to Iwa, for you, it's a shortcut home. Make sure to inform me if we are getting close to your clan's radar. I don't trouble."
Yuu hummed. Right, his clan. He was more open than most of his clan and look how he'd responded to her. Others of his clan would kill her on sight. Tossing his bag through the hole once he'd collected everything, Yuu followed after Lien.
“Will-do.”

She was glad that Yuu agreed to warn her if they get too close to the village. It was a dangerouse area for her and if she can do something to keep herself safe, its better that way. she started walking. The carp from the morning were a good start. The weather was great, it wasnt cold or hot and a weak wind was blowing. If to take into acount the rain of the past few weeks around Iwa, the area they are heading for will have a big amount of mushrooms. Nuts might be found as well and it was the season.
If things go well, she might have one of the most successful trips she ever had. Making a friend is always a bonus, making a friend of a Kamizuru member is even better. He is also a medic so future tradings can be done well. There are always desired goods found mostly in Iwa, or iwa'a are just better quality, yet going in to get them is a big no-no. Its good knowing someone on the inside.
As they were going, the silence became somehow awkward. The girl, feeling the need to break it decided to bring up a topic the medic will definatly be interested in. "Remember I spoke of my venom?" She asked him. "Kumoro members can produse 2 kinds of vemon. One, a deadly one is the comon kind. The secend, a very rare one, will only paralize the target. Most members can only producethe deadly type, I am also like that. Most of us can control the time and amount of venom coming out, I, sadly, can only do it most of the time."
Yuu followed alongside the girl at an easy pace as they walked. The tension had broken since the morning and he was a lot more comfortable with her. However, he walked with his arms folded across his chest for a new insecurity had risen up. It was to be expected he'd feel a little vulnerable with a stranger when she'd discovered his sex, although logically he knew he could take her out if it came to it.
""Remember I spoke of my venom? Kumoro members can produce 2 kinds of venom. One, a deadly one is the common kind. The second, a very rare one, will only paralyze the target. Most members can only produce the deadly type, I am also like that. Most of us can control the time and amount of venom coming out, I, sadly, can only do it most of the time."
Yuu blinked at her, speaking randomly about the venom. Two types of venom?
“Where does it come out from? Do you bite people, or...?”
CHAKRA | 100% WORD COUNT | 170 TAGS | Kumoro Lien ADDL. NOTES | Aa
The question was obviously coming. The idea of biting made her chuckle. "Bite? No, no, it is nohing like that! Its stored in special lands that are inside the lips. It comes out through the skin of the lips, similar to the way sweat comes out." The girl explained then pulled her bag off and searched it taking out 3 tiny glass bottles, one with a yellow-green liquid, one with a pink liquid and the last one with a clear one. Turnig to face you she handed them to him. "A gift, greenish is paralysis venom, clear is the antidote to it. The pink is the antidote for the deadly type, which I will not give you. Feel free to study those 3 and mass produce the antidotes, just don't tell anyone how you got those, ok?"
There was a pause and the ginger sighed. "For how long are you going to keep on looking like a lost puppy following around a random person with no confidence?" She asked. With his arms folded on his chest and the look of insecurity on his face, he sure did resemble a lost puppy. Or kitten. Or any other small animal...
"Bite? No, no, it is nothing like that! Its stored in special lands that are inside the lips. It comes out through the skin of the lips, similar to the way sweat comes out."
Yuu blinked. Did it taste bad if one licked their lips? But if it was from the lips and not from the teeth... well, then. He was distracted from his thoughts when she handed him small jars. Green, pink, clear...
"A gift, greenish is paralysis venom, clear is the antidote to it. The pink is the antidote for the deadly type, which I will not give you. Feel free to study those 3 and mass produce the antidotes, just don't tell anyone how you got those, ok?"
The Kamizuru was in awe, examining the liquid through the glass of the jar. This was so cool. Mass-producing antidotes would be useful, and the paralytic would be quite useful as well. Studying them sounded so exciting. He could understand why she wouldn't give him the deadly kind, but there were plenty of ways to kill without aid of the secretions of a kekkei genkai.
"For how long are you going to keep on looking like a lost puppy following around a random person with no confidence?"
Yuu flinched, clutching the jars against his chest. He was worried over things that no one else even cared about again. He stuffed the jars into his bag, and then without warning, hugged the girl. The medic was just that kind of person.
“This is really cool! Thank you!”

The boy was cheered up as she thought he would be...but... Being hugged was not what she was thinking would happen. The look on his face reminded her of Aii, her little sister when she was in a very good mood. It was cute yet, the ginger softly pushed the boy away.
"Thought you'd like it. Be carfull with the poison, if it touches your skin, you're gonna be imobilized for a few hours. It comes out throught the skin, and goes back in the same way. If anyone ever anoys you real bad, its a fun prank to play on them."
Hanging her bag back in place, she adjusted her clock and kept going. On the way the would collect fruits, nuts and mushrooms for later use. When the sun way high in the sky, she let tiarra go run around snd hunt for her food. While the ginger asked the boy to go place traps around while she starts a fire and cooks what they already have.
"Thought you'd like it. Be careful with the poison, if it touches your skin, you're gonna be immobilized for a few hours. It comes out through the skin, and goes back in the same way. If anyone ever annoys you real bad, its a fun prank to play on them.""
Ooh, that's mean. Yuu liked her style. It would be a good agent to use with his arrows. It was nice having the antidotes, too. It would make a great study.
They collected a lot of various foods as they went, and Yuu placed traps when asked. He'd become rather good at setting them now (in his opinion, anyway. He hadn't slammed his fingers in them in a good while, at least.) and it didn't take long for him to return to the meet-up point. Yuu's bag was getting weighted down with poultices and herbs waiting to be ground. It was as cumbersome as it was satisfying, so he had no complaints.
“We've got one plant left, right? Where will that be?”

When the boy came back Lien waved to him. She was taking care of the side dish for their (hopefully going to be) meat. During the time the boy was away, Tiarra brought back 2 eggs she got from some nest and Lien was hoping to be making a stew with eggs. It was tasty, filling and didn't feel heavy. But if there was anything the girl wasnt great at, it was that one stew.
The boys question was a simple one. There only had to find the crimson daisy now and well.... it was going to be a dificult one. "Yes, only the daisies are left to get. As far as I know, they grow close to Iwa, they need a soil that is both rocky and sandy, wich is rare by itself. They also grow only in the areas where the forest it tick and the air is very moist." She answered him. Looking at her map after getting it she rubbed her chin. "I don't have much of a clue of where to start so we will probably be going in a circle around the village."
You and I are same in the way that we have our own styles that we won't change. Yours is filled with evil...
"Yes, only the daisies are left to get. As far as I know, they grow close to Iwa, they need a soil that is both rocky and sandy, which is rare by itself. They also grow only in the areas where the forest is thick and the air is very moist."
Close to Iwa, eh? Yuu happened to know a place that fit that criteria. They were close to his home now, and he often spent time hunting herbs in the mountains.
"I don't have much of a clue of where to start so we will probably be going in a circle around the village."
Yuu hummed, sipping the weird stew he was given. It kinda tasted bad, but it was food, and she'd been cooking for him, and he'd probably do worse, so he didn't say anything to her.
“We're getting close to the area I'm familiar with. There's a place to the west of the village that fits your description. I've never wandered too far in that area because there's never been anything I needed, but also because it's a dangerous area. Bears like to forage in that area and I believe there are boars too.”
But, he was a shinobi. Against wild animals, Yuu could easily protect the both of them. Might even score them a good dinner to salt and cure. He was nearly home so he didn't need much, but if he shot them something good, he could help prepare it so she could take it with her. Just because Yuu wasn't a cook didn't mean he was entirely useless with food.
...and mine's not, there is no way I can lose.
