The last time Asuma saw Konohgakure it was in the late throes of summer when it was half empty, active and even semi retired shinobi off to help with the harvest, some jōnin taking their last bit of freedom before the new genin were assigned. Now it was barely spring and Konoha looked like the sleeping giant it was. It bristled with shinobi of every rank, each one almost visibly armed to the teeth, so much so the walls looked like they were being patrolled by angry porcupines more than anything. As such, it's not much of a surprise when Asuma is stopped a solid thirty feet from the gate, which is sealed shut. “State your name a business,” a chūnin with bandages across his nose demands. He and his partner, another male chūnin, are tense as …show more content…
Not-Bandages gives a nervous chuckle at the answer and disappears without another word, leaving Bandages to peer nervously down at Asuma. It makes the jōnin feel like a ticking time bomb, if bombs had feelings that is. Not-Bandages, whose apparent lack of real humour has earned him the name Chuckles, reappears less than a full minute later with a familliar if very sodden silver-haired jōnin next to him. “A greeting from the Copy Nin himself,” Asuma says once they're within talking range, voice purposefully mild, “I've really gone up in the world it seems.” Kakashi's body shifts in a way that offers the suggestion of a grin beneath his mask, a real one not that stupid eye-thing he's perfected over the years. “There just weren't any other bastards unlucky enough to recall your ugly mug, Asuma,” Kakashi says. From this close, ten feet or so, Asuma can feel the faint prickle of Kakashi's chakra indicates that if Asuma is tired, Kakashi is a few minutes from passing out. He's always had stellar chakra control, if Asuma can feel him from that far he's not in a good place. He seems genuinely pleased to see him though, or as pleased as Kakashi ever is. “Ha fucking ha,” Asuma says, stepping up closer. Chuckles shifts nervously, sagging in relief when Kakashi raises a hand. “Yeah this is him,” he says – and now he does the eye thing. “And I'm sure he'll play nice while he's here.” Or else, is very clear in
“Yeah, well Akemi's not here, trust me and give it a try. I'll back away and you can swing it around a little.”
“Your cut up, and bruised, we need a doctor.” Irene told the man, “What’s your name?”
“What’s da’ matter? Looks like you’ve just seen a ghost.” he started chuckling at this.
They both chuckle and then a brief awkwardness occurs. The boy looks at the girl and smiles. The line moves up just a little.
During the Revolutionary Era from 1765-1815, slavery existed in thirteen colonies. Maryland went from white servants to slaves. There was an agricultural economy that existed in the South that was dependent on the labor of slaves. Although slavery did not exist in the North exclusively; New York, Philadelphia, and New England were involved in the trade of slaves; so although the South was exclusively using slaves as an economic gain, the North also had financial benefits as a result of the existence of slavery. In the aftermath of the Revolution, slavery began to cease in the North. In Massachusetts they ruled slavery as not in concordance with the state. Other northern states like New York and New
The two stared at each other for a moment before laughing it off. Kairi stopped and sent Tsuna a serious look. “I meant what I said. This tickle spot is a no-touch zone.”
“Kaneki, perhaps... you're... a ghoul” Hide laughed teasingly as he attempts to in jest him.
“No, I think I can handle it ma’am,” Tony said as he let another small grin come across his face.
Clementine tells this to Joel twice, two years apart from each other – the first time, when they were falling in love with each other, and the second, after the Lacuna procedure, when they realized that they were once together. The fact that Joel is so drawn to her for the second time despite having all his memories with Clem successfully eradicated insinuates that Lacuna is a recursion, for it fails to eliminate the habits, main characteristics, and tendencies of the characters. Overall, those who undergo it would have no recollection of the memories that have been removed, but will ultimately revert back to their old ways, as they will be unaware of their mistakes and obstacles from the past. With no previous experiences and knowledge of
The beautiful campus of Oklahoma Christian University has just recently built a long, paved walking trail. It equals to almost five miles that winds around the campus. Not only can it be accessed by students of Oklahoma Christian, but also by the locals that desire to walk, run, or even bike. However, the trail even offers much more than that for individuals who do not want a five mile workout. A variety of tall trees and small bond circles a part of the trail called ,”The Loop”. Over the years athletes, people who walk their dogs, or even just people who cherish and adore nature, and a healthy lifestyle utilizes it .On the west side of campus near Bryant Rd., “The Loop” contributes to a scenic, relaxing landscape, as it links together exercise
Armin pulls in a shaky, stuttering breath as a futile attempt to compose himself, but when he sees Jean sitting there, laughing and phone in hand, he immediately breaks down and shakes with suppressed, barely audible sobs. He drags in a long breath, wipes his eyes for what seems to be the umpteenth time, chances another look at Jean and lets out a terse, unexpected laugh.
Kakashi ran and ran he had started to breath hard but knew he couldn't stop considering his family and the village that he had grew up and loved was attacked and was his duty to protect it. There was no time for him to stop and take a breath he had to move fast, his house was coming into sight he could see Osoka soldiers walking and running through the streets killing Kyoto villagers and then burning houses down he had seen a soldiers going into his house. This had fueled him with rage he had ran faster than he had ran before quickly gaining ground, Osoka soldiers had seen him and his mean running at them. They had started yelling and running in the direction of him. This aggravated Kakashi even more making his blood boil knowing that these men were trying to kill the people he loved and destroy the place he loved. He had ran through all of the men swiping left to right with his katana killing all of them men
“Hey!” Flich exclaims, offended. I crack at smile at the dirty joke, unable to stop myself and Flich instantly notices. “Oh, so you can
I believe that many other students like me that would like to believe that if a student got a good memory then his or her college life will be much easier. Having a good memory means you can easily remember and recall what you have heard from professors, or what you have read from textbooks. So, what is memory? Is that really so mysterious? In definition, memory is an organism's ability to store and retrieve information over time. Nowadays, people already know that how importantly and complicated the memory works. Simply saying, there are three functions of memory, which is encoding, storage, and retrieval. We transform what we perceive, think, or feel into an enduring memory, then maintain
