"Thank you." Kira quickly said, dashing to a large stone. Her ankle burned but she ignored it completely as she took the stone and smashed the glowing bird. It crumbled to ash, and in an instant everything stopped. The shadows faded away and it was silent. Kira sat kneeling on the ground in the position she'd smashed the bird, catching her breath.

Itachi sighed. He evened his breathing even though it would have seemed calm the entire time by the way he was able to hide it all. He was by her in an instant. "Let me see your ankle." he said.

"I told you I'm fine..." Kira insisted, looking away. She sat on the ground, buying time for it to start healing. She wasn't the type to whine about little things like that. "Are you alright?" She countered.

His sharingan faded until his eyes were back to it's charcoal color. He simply nodded and picked her up. Even if she told him she was fine, he had a feeling she just didn't want to make a big deal about it.

Kira's eyes shot open as he lifted her up. "I...hey..." She disputed. "I'm fine...it just needs a little time..." She mumbled. "Wounds like that vary...it'll probably take about 20 minutes since it twisted a bit...stupid plant..." She finally admitted.

"You would rather wait on the ground for twenty minutes..?" he asked looking down at her.

She blushed a bit and looked to the side. "N...No..."

He smirked lightly. "I prefer this method.." he said. "..Is there any more danger ahead?"

"It should be calm for a bit...but don't be fooled by it." She admitted, holding on comfortably. "And with your level...I'm almost sure that it won't be for long..."

He resisted the urge to sigh and just nodded his head instead. He prepared himself for whatever would come next, even though he looked completely calm. He activated his sharingan again, and scanned the area.

Reaching up, Kira covered his eyes. "Turn them off." She smirked. "I remember this spot now...there's a break around the corner and it branches into three paths."

He deactivated his sharingan and waited for her to remove her hands. Once she did he looked towards the direction she spoke of and made his way towards, making sure not to waste energy.
"Three paths..And if we choose the wrong one?"

"If we choose the wrong one, I will cheat...there's an escape after all." She smiled. "Don't strain yourself."

"Interesting. And..I will not strain myself.." he said though it was halfheartedly, even though his voice was blank. There was no way for a ninja not to strain himself in these kinds of situations. For some it seemed inevitable.
They approached the corner with the paths. He chose the one to the left and began walking towards it, making sure to reserve any energy he could for what ever battle or trap would come next.

Kira sighed with relief and relaxed in his grasp a bit. She was glad he didn't choose the 'right' path...that would've been brutal and she wasn't up for that. Moving her ankle, she closed her eye as a twinge of pain ran up. "Takes so long..." She muttered quietly. "How embarrassing...my own plant." She laughed.
As they continued walking, the path was calm. Straight, albeit narrow...but calm. No traps, nothing in sight. Along the hedges though, there were several new and colorful flowers, their scent flooding the air.
