After that our food arrived ae quickly before paying and heading out to find a jewel smith to socket this emerald into a proper neckce. With most of the vilge also celebrating the festival there weren't many shops of any kind still w that didn't want to take advantage of the festival to make a profit like Ichiraku. Even with the festival being a great oppurtunity for making moeuchi still po spend the st day enjoying the festival so the ramen shop will be closed then.-
Either way it took some serious searg for us but we eventually found a jewel smith that was still open for business. It was run by a man whinally hailed from the nd of iron so he didn't celebrate the festival. He also admitted that it didn't matter if closed or not as he didn't get much business anyways since he literally made jewelry and that wasn't in hot demand most of the time. When I showed him the emerald and told him what i wanted him to do with it he grinedly.
"A fine gem needs a fiing indeed! You're in luck too as I happen to have a silver neckce that I have been pulling my hair out about finding a stoo set in for but this is perfect." the guy said excitedly and took the emerald to a workben the back.
There were a few light "TINK!" sounds as he worked the stoo the neck question and soourned. He presehe neckd I saw that it was a beautifully woven silver thread with a ft like attat with a ripple pattern. In the ter of the "" was the emerald held io look like the source of the ripples on the neckce.-
I paid the man the rge amount of money he wanted before promptly handing the neckce to Karin.
"What?" She just gaped at the gift in fusion.
"What do you mean "what"? Did you think I was going to wear the thing? It was always going to be yours from the moment i bought it inally." I said holy.
"THANKYOUSOMUCH!" she squealed happily as she ed me in a tight hug that made me unfortable.
'Why is she always getting so worked up about something so little? It's just a neckce.' i thought aggrieved.
The day pretty muded there though as we weren't really ied in seeing any more pys or anything. We got dinner and rexed back at the house after that both relieved in our own ways to be out of those outfits and appearances. For me being in such a detailed transformation for so long was annoying and for her she had scalp ache from the disfort of putting her hair up when she wasn't used to doing so. The kimono was also not very fortable for her either since her normal clothes were much more rexed.-
The day of the festival any ninja with any renown in the vilge was out and about to receive leaves. I had a e on that job while I casually stealthed to various shows about the current famous shinobi and their exploits. Jiraiya ur target for story telling due to being so well known while my sensei also got her fair share nition though as a medic there weren't many tales worth telling of her. I got a casual mention in a few pces but not much else since I was rather o the se.-
Karin wasn't really all that impressed with the shows this time which was fair sinpared to the warring s period or Konoha's founding the modern shinobi didn't have as many super iing tales. I ended up only getting three leaves in total which erfectly fair while Kakashi wole this year with a total of two thousand five hundred and three leaves. My sensei had apparently thought she would win by a ndslide since she was Hokage but her vices had sort of killed a good deal of her "look up to" ness. -
She did take a close sed though so that was a bit of a sotion if nothing else for her. The third day of the festival I started the day by colleg flowers from my property and going to the Uchiha memorial. It was a simple stone sb that had the entire list of names for ead every Uchiha that had died during the massacre. The memorial was dirty and ill kept so I spent some time ing it up before I put the flowers in front of it and g my hands together to offer a prayer. -
"I hadn't thought I'd see anyone else here." Kakashi said as he joined me and put down his own flowers.
"I believe that even if the rest of the vilge likes to act as though they were better fotten that they were loyal to it in their own way and deserve at least this much respect." I said holy.
"Loyal in their own way huh? A good way to remember them." he said with a sigh.
"Now then I believe the memorial you are truly here for is over there, best not to keep them waiting." I said patting him on the shoulder as I left.
The rest of the day was a bunch of loud games and celebration for the uping year. Karin dragged me into pying a bunch of those games even if they were pretty useless for shinobi like us. I even ended up winning her a giant teddy bear bigger than she was in the rubber shuriken throwing booth. Even though the game was rigged with lopsided rubber shuriken I just adjusted my throwihod to pensate and easily aced the whole thing. The final part of the festival however was the fireworks which i had something special pnned for.-
"Are you sure we are supposed to be up here?" Karin asked as we arrived on top of the Hokage mountain.
"Rex, it's not illegal to be up here just not on. Besides this is the best spot for what I o do." I said calmly.
"You never did say what that was exactly you know?" she pointed out curiously.
"And ruin the surprise? I'd never do such a thing." I said with a smirk.
We waited until the fireworks started and she watched with wide eyes as they exploded above the vilge. I meanwhile was molding my chakra nid slowly for the big fihe final bright red firework went off about an hour ter and I fihe st of the frankly insanely plex chakra molding and breathed out to the air above the vilge. Immediately a massive set of several dragons made of pure fire roared across the sky and high above the vilge formed the insignia of the vilge out of fire that lingered for a moment before dispersing into thousands of embers that fell gently and harmlessly to each person currently outside to withe se.
