Kaito appeared at the border of the Fire Country, behind him a mass of trees that was the dense forest. It kept the numerous villages and towns within the Fire Country hidden from potential threats. The boy stood there in the grass plain, watching the Sun set below the horizon. A soft gale brushing through the area gave him a nice feel before he'd set off again. Truthfully, this would be the first time he'd actually leave the Fire Country to venture out to another land. He'd turn back and stare at the line of trees, remembering his upbringing and childhood. Good memories, and bad. Still, he could not forget the fact that this was his home. That he was a shinobi of the Fire. He'd be sure to come back again. "Thank you for everything you've taught me. I will return to you some day. Hopefully, I'll be back stronger and wiser." Kaito smiled and closed his eyes, turning his head in the direction of his destination, the Water Country. He'd let the breeze pass by him again before setting out.
In the Water Country was the fabeled dragon palace, Ryugu-Jo. Legends say that the underwater palace is home to a monstrous force. A king that is only spoken about to scare children of the country; Ryujin, the dragon god. It may sound risky to even consider trying to find this legend, but Kaito was not one to cower at some fairytale. The boy moved quickly, running on the path that would lead his way to the Water Country. He was anxious to learn about Ryugu-Jo and possibly learn about its secrets! And who knows, maybe he'd bump into some other people there as well. There was no telling what would happen once he got to the Water Country, but Kaito had a feeling his life would forever change. "I'm coming for you Ryugu-Jo." Hopefully, he'd arrive by midnight. It all depended on his speed, and right now he was moving fast!
