Kagome took a moment as she stared down at her food, her stomach felt fill enough as she glanced from side to side. Standing slowly she bowed, "Excuse me please."
Kakashi turned his head quickly to her seeing her eyes run over the ground and looked at her walk out of the house. Naruto stared down at his food taking small bites yet quickly. Sasuke crossed his arms after finishing his meal and Sakura stared at them all as she sat respectfully. Kakashi whispered, "I apologize for her."
Tazuna shook his head with a smile while Tsunami spoke, "Its fine really, Kagome is a good person we know already there is no need to vouch for her."
Kakashi nodded, "Yes but…"
Kakashi stood, "I'll meet you all outside, thank you."
They nodded while Kakashi grabbed his crutches walking out slowly. Kagome heard the hobble from far off as she stopped at the end of the dock far from him. She turned while he stood firm. She glanced back slowly for a second then bowed her head. Blinking a few times she walked forward once more only to hear him yell, "Stop right there."
She cursed herself then turned her head quickly to him, "Yes? I thought you weren't speaking to me."
Kakashi eyed him while he limped towards her. She walked towards him as well almost as in a favor. They stood staring at each other seriously until he asked, "Where were you last night?"
Turning away she muttered, "I was out on a walk, I couldn't fall asleep."
"Really?"
"Yes, really Kakashi, why don't you trust me anymore?"
She almost felt foolish for asking such a thing when knowing the answer fully. With a sigh she turned her head away. Calling gently she heard him whisper, "its only concern, when Zabuza brought up that information from before…it was not so much of a wise thing for me to see you going off…for all I knew you could have done harm to yourself."
"I could have and yet I did not please Kakashi, trust me once again."
He stared at her then nodded turning away. Kagome put out her hand to help him back to the house. He thankfully took it seeing Naruto and the others waiting for him. Kagome stopped there as Kakashi allowed her to leave and speaking that she may go with Tazuna. Smiling Kagome turned to him, "Shall we go then Tazuna?"
"Yes, let's head out. Good luck training you all."
They nodded while Kagome bowed to her leave turning and following Tazuna away. Kagome glanced back once more than looked to the trees seeing a familiar glare of light far off from glass. She smiled knowing Kabuto was there. She glanced to Tazuna, "Lets hurry shall we, and I could help and guard you at the same time, good deal?"
"Wonderful."
Kagome smiled to him softly as they went on. She looked up to Kabuto from the trees reaching into her pocket dropping a piece of paper on the ground walking along continuing. As they escaped out of sight Kabuto ran towards them reaching for the piece of paper quickly and nodding then disappearing.
Kagome sat for a moment while she finished moving the last of the wood and steel bars. She turned her head back carefully watching as the last remaining few people who stayed loyal to the building of the bridge took a lunch break. Kagome bent her head slowly as she heard them call after her. She shook her head smiling to them, "I am here to guard you but I think, if it's okay I put some precautions around the area alright, just for your security and the security of this bridge."
He nodded smiling, "Hurry back then Kagome, I want you to have a decent meal before we head back to work."
Waving him away she smiled walking away from them. Turning her head she lifted her hands slowly walking behind the tree glancing to the side, "Aiko, you have been watching take my place while I got pay a visit to an old friend."
Jumping now she nodded smiling brightly as Kagome disappeared. Aiko looked back whispering softly, "She trusts me, I won't let her down!"
"Transformation Jutsu!"
