It was pretty much a usual day in Konoha. Around the tower circled a flock of crows which perched themselves on a roof. They were said to be signs of dark omens and more in the long twisted biased tale of history. The crows stood frozen still, truly like hundreds of small statues as they observed the town below themselves. Some people looked up wondering what would truly have caused this flock of crows to rest in their village. Maybe the Dark Ages were truly returning? As several crows flew from the forest of death they flapped their wings heavily throughout their city as they headed towards the window opening. As they all swooped in one by one they seemed to blanket and cover each other in one position. As they began to blanket themselves they seemed to take on a humanoid form as a black kimono was revealed and a man in silver hair now stood from what was once nothing but a pile of crows.
"It feels like ages since we've enjoyed one anothers presence Tamotsu...Far too long.." Kaeor muttered as he took a seat in front of the desk of Tamotsu.
The crow which had been made apart of Tamotsu's collective family, he been acting a bit strange that morning. Tamotsu noticed it always seemed to look out the window and he sighed having known the feeling of wait and longing. But he knew the birds wait would end soon as he could sense it. He sat at his desk, pale and a bit sullen as if he had not slept for a few days and continued to work on his papers. It was a seemingly never-ending barrage of paper work. Even Mitsuki could see the change in the once vibrant Hokage. He sighed fearing that he had begun to lose his grip on things. But Tamotsu looked up and gave a small smile.
"We'll have a guest soon. The bird is almost certain of it." Tamotsu said as the crow began to caw as Kaeor entered the room with a style all his own. As Kaeor spoke, Tamotsu smiled weakly as his green eyes gave off a weak sheen.
"It does feel like a long time. A month will do that to you. I am... well. You?" He said obviously lying. _________________ Tamotsu Says: Relax. No seriously... I'ma kunai you to death if you don't.

"I couldn't be much better. Life is life. Though I see that your still a horrible lier since I first met you though." he commented with a yawn as a crow perched itself on his shoulder and then leaped from there onto the desk of Tamotsu. Kaeor actually had questions that he needed to ask Tamotsu but he decided to do the courteous thing first rather than rudely begin his small interrogation over a woman and a few other things. His eyes rolled over to the corner of the room to where the Earth blade of the Wind Shire was. He only looked at it for a few seconds before returning his eyes back to Tamotsu. As he stood from the chair the crow leaped back onto his shoulder.
"Lets take a walk. Tell me whats troubling you? Its obvious something had been on your mind." he said as he gestured for Tamotsu to follow him and left the tower into the streets of Konoha, waiting for Tamotsu's response.

"Haha. I see." Tamotsu said as he held out his hand and let the crow back up on to his shoulder. The crow nuzzled softly against Tamotsu and he smiled. "Thank you for the crow by the way." Tamotsu said as he stood up and looked at Kaeor. "I am not... myself. You see, all this change is making me weary and it kills me. I haven't caught up and even with my few moments of freedom, I'm always working. But..." Tamotsu stopped as he looked down and smiled faintly. "... it's the loneliness which kills me. However, I have many things to live for." Tamotsu laughed. _________________ Tamotsu Says: Relax. No seriously... I'ma kunai you to death if you don't.

"Theres no need to thank me Tamotsu. Its a small token compared to what you have done for me." he replied as he continued walking and sighed as he looked back. His crows were meant to be vicious yet Tamotsu had made the crow he left him a bit to friendly. "Look at us Tamotsu. We're young and have already achieved what takes years to do so. You shouldn't let yourself become so weary." The caramel eyes of Kaeor looked towards a nearby bar as he thought it the right time to bring up one of the reasons he came here.
"Guren Chihiro was murdered a couple of years ago by a Inuzuka. She was part of a stone clan in Iwa. You wouldn't know anything about this would you? Don't answer to quickly. Think back long and hard before responding."

"Leave." Tamotsu said as he looked at Kaeor softly. "I'm rather busy and don't want to deal with situations, questions or friends. I just need to finish this work so I can go to bed soon." Tamotsu said as he went back to paper work and tried to force out the memories in his head. He began to tear slightly as he thought and worked. "A long time ago....
Spoiler:
A young Tamotsu yanwed in his bed, a room familiar to the one he put Reiatsu in before. He looked up at the stars from the small window as small cherry blossoms fell to the ground. The night sky was clear and he could see many constellations above. He smiled softly as he covered himself in the blanket and drifted to sleep, a small gray wolf cub at the base of his bed where his feet were covered by the blanket. He shifted tirelessly in his sleep, something told him not to sleep.
His instincts kicked in hard when the front door of the house was bashed in and several things broke. He shot out of bed with the small wolf who growled and snarled at the door. As he waited for whoever would come in, he stood with a kunai in his hands. The door opened as he predicted and he threw the kunai forward. The kunai pierced the figure in the chest and Tamotsu ran forward and looked at the person. "Mom..." He said as the lights came on. His eyes opened wide as he looked at his mother smiling at him.
"Heh, at least my son will be able to protect his home." The woman said caressing his face. Tamotsu's eyes filled with tears as he looked at his mother's smile fade. He yelled out in angst and pain as he held her. The sounds outside in the living room were loud and several glass items broke. He heard a loud whimper and he looked up and laid his mother down as he stepped out to the living room as he saw his father and his wolf bleeding heavily on the ground. He ran up to him and took knee beside him.
"Tamotsu-kun. Run... please... run one more time for me..." His father said as two shurikens fell from his hands on to the floor. Tamotsu cried as he looked at his father and grabbed the shurikens and stood up. He stood there until the two cloaked men who seemed to be the attackers came in. He looked at them with his eyes, which were green colored at the time. He threw the shurikens forward at the men with luck on his side. As he stood there and watched the men fall down for their final time, he fell to his knees and looked at the floor.
"... I never meant to kill my mother... Guren Chihiro was my mother." _________________ Tamotsu Says: Relax. No seriously... I'ma kunai you to death if you don't.

Kaeor watched as Tamotsu told him to leave and headed back towards his own tower. A small look of impatience showed on Kaeor's face as he stood in the streets. Little did he know that what Kaeor's crows heard he heard too. A few minutes later he walked over to the tower and climbed upwards. As he reached the top he didn't even knock on the door this time but simply entered and sat down in front of him. Tamotsu should know that Kaeor wouldn't leave that easy.
"Heh. So you killed your own mother?.. Wow. Whats been done can't be changed, you can only alter the future. You have a sister, a beautiful one that still remains in your family."

"A sister?" Tamotsu said as he lifted his head and looked at Kaeor for a moment as if he didn't understand a word he had said. He then took a breath and regained his focus. His former lack of color went away as it gave way to his original skin color. He closed his eyes and then sat back in his chair. "It's not possible. My mother never birth another child. I'm an only child which is why I grew up with no one when my parents died. So there is no other heir to my mother's legacy of my father's legacy." Tamotsu said coldly as he looked at Kaeor. "SO what exactly are your trying to get at?" _________________ Tamotsu Says: Relax. No seriously... I'ma kunai you to death if you don't.

Kaeor sighed at the Hokage's disbelief at what he was saying. He dug deep into the robes of his kimono as he searched for something, he finally pulled out a light brown folder that he had brought from Iwagakure just in case a situation like this rose. He tossed the file on the desk that would have pictures and information about her. He leaned back in his chair and made himself comfortable for the moment as he waited for Tamotsu's response. He wondered how Tamotsu's face would look after he read all the information. Probably in shock.

Tamotsu took the folder and looked over it and his eyes opened a bit as he looked at the one called Moriko. "She has mom's hair. Her entire face. The way she seems to smile and even stand is the same. As if she was a carbon copy of her. This... isn't possible is it? All these years, I had been wondering whether or not there was another who shared a connection of kin with me. And she was far away." Tamotsu thought to himself as he closed the folder and gave Kaeor the same face he always had before, the face of laziness and indifference. "Why have you come here with this information?" Tamotsu asked as he sat back in his chair. _________________ Tamotsu Says: Relax. No seriously... I'ma kunai you to death if you don't.
