Bao shook his head as he looked at Madara sit down, Now now, who would want to serve to a person like you... , He asked him, putting his lightning like sword to the back of Madara's head, Since you've killed so many of Konoha's ninja.. He added, with a scowl on his face, Someone Like you should never return to this place..

Crystal's brow furrowed and her tone took to an almost too cheerful tone, something that happened when she became annoyed. Sumiyaka ruffled his feathers more as young girl spoke towards Bao, her teeth almost clenching together as her arms folded, one hand carefully reaching inside her robe.

Leave and put yourself in danger? Oh I do admire your nobleness, Oki-san but....

That specific hand moved in a quick motion and the table leg of the table that the pair was sitting at fell off, as if sliced by a sword. She made another tucking motion into her robes and just stood there, a now apathetic tone to her voice.

I assure you, I can take care of myself very well. I'm not just some helpless and weak female that will sit back to watch while the big strong male goes and gets himself injured!

Sumiyaka screeched his approval as Crystal walked over to stand behind Bao, then reached up to tap the side of his face gently with a finger. Her voice dropped in tone and harshness, becoming almost a whisper.

Besides, if you get too wound up we won't get to spar together...have you forgotten that? Please stop this, Oki-san.

Bao watched every movement Crystal made, as she came closer, he stopped his sword from sparking, as it turned back to normal. He put the sword back into its sheath and looked at Crystal. He listened to her whispering voice, the one that he loved. He calmed himself and nodded his head. Alright, why stay when he is just going to be stubborn anyways.. He might as well end up dead if he stays... Lets just let him find out on his own.., he said calmly as he took off his mask, and hooked it onto his beltloop.

Her reply was curt, a hidden smile flickering across her lips as she coughed almost politely into one of her hands.

Good then. We're leaving, ninja style. No arguing from you, Oki-san or I will be forced to do something I probably do not want to. Elements forbid.

Bao chuckled and nodded to her, Well then, ladies first. He said and smiled a bit, waiting for her to lead the way of their next destination.

She needed no further bidding and promptly swept out of the ramen shop like her robes were the most elegant of dresses, Sumiyaka clacking his beak as if he were laughing silently.

Yes, yes. All in good measure. Now come along, my good friend.

Bao smiled and closed the blinds to the ramen shoppe, leaving Madara behind like the past. He then held Crystal's hand once again gently, feeling her finger prints, as his fingers slid through his. He smiled more, wanting it to stay like this.

( Crystal and Bao have left the conversation...ON TO TRAINING! )
