Lights twinkled. They twinkled everywhere this black night, every building boasting a sign of some form or nature. Shades of scarlet and equal hues of lemon illuminated and added emphasis to the severity of the downpour which pelted the city with moderate vigor. The moon, in a city like this, had been shrouded by the gray giants which lofted above who would send their numberless armies onto the earth below them, not discriminating the least bit as they continued their attack.
Speeding in unmatched haste through the vacant alleys and streets had been a formidable being who sought no shelter during nature's attack. He wore a scowl on his aged face, ashen eyes sharp as they scanned passed the veil of rain. Hair and clothing clung to his body, a sage top now moss green and salmon hakama now velvet as the rain fed to his clothing richness. His blades would clank every now and then as they struck each other; a warning to his foes.
With a huge splash he would come to an abrupt halt, a foot half submerged in a puddle as he surveyed the area around him. His halt had been prompted by a reason, but what reason specifically? He would hopefully figure that out himself soon. All he had known was that an awkward feeling sat in the air around him, a feeling that casted on him an uncanny uneasiness.
The steady rain of his village was always a sound that was most calming, it was really the only thing you could depend on around here. Drops splashed incessantly along the streets, bouncing off the many tall buildings, and of course all over whoever was not properly sheltered. Had it not been fairly mild outside, this weather would be dreadful to sit outside in - but regardless, Aki was here for another reason, and it seemed he'd not needed to wait very long at all before his 'guest' would arrive. Grey slates had found their target up ahead, but at this distance (40 meters) it wasn't exactly easy to get a good look at him, even harder when you considered Aki sat atop a billboard 10 meters up.
"Oooh?"
His right hand rotated in slow circles, index finger pointed straight out; slowly spinning the single paper-hilted kunai in his grasp. A rather eager grin etched itself into his features, and with a sudden surge of excitement his left arm was thrown up, where he would tug down on the fur-lined hood of his jacket. The beads of water falling from above brought a refreshing rush through his body as the first few struck his head and face. A pleasant sigh was given, and with but a simple motion of leaning forward he would allow himself to drop downwards, landing on the ledge just in front of the billboard; his silhouette now surely noticeable with the bright red lights shining from directly behind him.
"Yo!"
He screamed towards the new-comer, loud enough that his voice would carry over the distance between them, and loud enough to be heard over the splashes of rain and occasional wind. Although several small buildings, streetlamps, and billboards dotted the path to Aki, all it would take was but a simple gaze upwards to notice him standing there - the street did lead directly to the building he was on top of anyways. Kunai still twirling, he'd await to see just what exactly this man's moves would be - did he try something for a distance, or would he continue up the street and towards the building? We'd just have to wait and see.
