This chapter tells a little more about what Mumei does now. What her home looks like. Sorry that I didn't go into a lot of detail about the inside of the town. It really looks a lot like Konoha except without the mountains and not as many apartments, more houses. The front room of the building I didn't make a big deal of telling you about because it is a really simple room.
Chapter 8.
Mumei grabs Neji's hand and pulls him along side her until they are running towards the city. Mumei has a huge smile on while Neji is trying not to trip on the various rocks and pebbles.
The reached the gate, which looked a lot bigger close-up, about 10 feet taller than the Konoha gate. The doors were concrete with a golden plate going vertical from end to end of each door.
They slowly started to open to reveal the city, everything was bright and everyone had to squint until they could get used to the light. The door pathway was clear until two guards dropped from the top of the gate and kneeled before Mumei and Neji after the rest of the group had caught up to them.
"Welcome back." Said the guard on the left, still kneeling with closed eyes and a serious face on.
"Thank you." Mumei said bowing and grabbing Neji's hand once more and running past them.
Mumei realized that she was running to fast and waited for the rest of the group to catch up. She lead them down the center street and pointed out the vary of buildings, all also typical in Konoha.
She stopped at a ditch with two parallel walls, stretching high, on the right and left of the ditch. She smiles.
"What now?" said Naruto who was bored at staring at the ditch for so long. He crossed his arms.
Mumei remained silent until she slowly raised her right arm and pointed at an eighty degree angle and everyone followed her point until they saw a shining orangish-yellow, metal building about one-hundred feet up in the air.
Mumei squatted down and launched at the wall to the left at top speed and landed about the middle of it. She immediately pushed off and launched at the right wall a little higher. She kept going back and forth until she could grab onto the land surrounding the high building. The rest soon did the same.
She briskly walked through the double doors, facing the front gate, revealing a tile-floor room with grey walls and a large desk with two stair cases on each wall behind it, leading to a dark hallway. Two doors sat on each wall as well, a few feet ahead of the desk.
Suddenly, a group of boys, about 12, ran through the door on the right, one caught a green and yellow vase. He threw it back to another boy who had just come out of the door. He threw it again but this time Mumei jumped up in mid-air and caught it, landing back down on the squatting with a frown.
"She's back!" yelled one of the boys who ran through the door on the left, leaving only the boy who caught the vase after just leaving the door.
Mumei walked over to the front desk and gave the women the vase as she turned and look at the boy with an angry expression.
"Who do you think you are!" she shouted at the boy. He put on a bored face and put on hand on his hip. The boy had dark brown hair that came down to his nose and the front and down to his neck at the back at lowest. He was wearing a white shirt covered with a blue, long sleeved jacket. He wore khaki pants and blue sandals, his headband on his forehead.
"I have just as much right to be hear as you do!" he shouted back at her pointing to his thumb at his chest.
"No you don't! I could kick you out now if I wanted to!" she shouted back at him which made him gave off a short flash of surprise, which quickly turned into an angry expression once more.
A man who had just passed the front desk and heading for the door to the right walked past the boy. "Just try," he shouted, "I'll be ten times better than you!" as he pushed the man down and took of up the stairs and down the hallway.
"I swear if you go in my office I'll kill you, you little runt!" she shouted extremely annoyed at him.
She soon discovered everyone was waiting on her so she ushered them up the stairs and down the hallway.
It got darker and darker until it was pitch black in the hallway. They could soon see a light up ahead kept walking towards it. Mumei, who was leading the group, reached out her hands in front of her and pushed the two doors inward.
A room with a roof of glass, red carpet, a wooden desk in the center, facing towards the door appeared. The chair was turned against them.
Mumei walked over to the chair and grabbed the back of a jacket. She pulled him out of the chair so he was hanging from it and faced him towards the group.
"This is Ben. My student." Mumei said with a face of disgust.
