The sun was setting as as lone dog jumped from tree to tree, his preferred method of travel. His golden eyes flashed with wisdom and kindness as they searched from the next branch to land on. Eventually the kai-ken stopped when he had reached the famed Koga dog's territory. The remaining "ninjas." At that he chuckled, for they were not the only ninjas around these parts and he came to prove that. Senshi was not here to fight, oh no, for he was against that, but he was here just to talk. He just wanted to find out whether this pack of ninjas were good or evil. If they were good, he might join them, if not, well he would leave. But being a ninja himself, he willed this other ninjas to be good, for the life of a lone ninja was lonely.
The male sniffed the air, he was close to their base, he just had to be with how thick their scent was. Heh, I'm kinda nervous, he thought with a quiet laugh. This was the first ninjas he would be meeting in what seemed like years. He had the right to be nervous about meeting them. What if these dogs were evil? Would he have to fight his way out? His teeth clenched at that, luckily he had his throwing knife with him.
"Hello there," he barked, hoping his hello came off as friendly, for he was in no mood to fight right now. As time passed, he wondered if there truly were ninjas here and it was not just a rumor. A scent is strong, so someone must be living here... he thought, perking his ears for any sound. His eyes flashed around, looking for movement...

Mashinkage "Hello There"Mashinkage slowly lifted his head, waking up from his nap in the sunlight. He didn't hesitate to dash out from under building and leap over the walls without slowing down. The Koga Ninja dog landed gracefully before the other ninja.
His brilliant green eyes seemed to shine as he saw the other before him. In his mind, he new to be cautious and wary, making sure to be prepared for an attack. As he focused and cleared his Mind's Eye to read the male, he kept his muscles tense and ready. After getting a positive reading from the ninja before him, the shikoku-ken's stoic expression broke into a wide toothy grin.
"Greetings traveler. I am Mashinkage of the Koga ninja clan. I'm sure you realize you are on our lands, and you are trespassing..." His eyes twinkled a bit as he chuckled warmly. "But! Seeing as your aura is pure and you seem to wish us no harm, then you are allowed in our land." The ninja's body began to tremble with excitement and joy; his tail began to wag happily. "So what brings you to our lands?"

As time ticked by, he began to have more and more doubts about this place, maybe it was better if her just left. His hindlegs tensed as he prepared to preform a back-flip to get onto the branch behind him. But a sudden movement caught his attention and then, before him was a a famed koga ninja. Senshi relaxed his muscles, but only slightly, for it was still unknown if this newcomer was good or evil.
"Greetings traveler. I am Mashinkage of the Koga ninja clan. I'm sure you realize you are on our lands, and you are trespassing..."
I knew I should of waited at the border... he thought, tensing his muscles in case there was a fight. Though he was wishing with everything that there would not be one. But then it suddenly hit him that he should apologize for trespassing; before he could do it, though, the other male spoke again.
"But! Seeing as your aura is pure and you seem to wish us no harm, then you are allowed in our land. So what brings you to our lands?"
He smiled at this and relaxed, it seemed like there would be no fight or any hostilities for him intruding on the kogas' land. "I am sorry to intrude on your territory, but I was just wondering if the rumors were true... That there was a ninja pack living here." as he spoke, his eyes shined and his tail began to wag slightly. "And the rumors are true, and I am very glad of that. And I was also wonder the nature of this pack, is it good, or evil?" Feeling at ease, Senshi positioned himself into a sitting position upon the branch; he didn't worry about falling, for being in the trees was second nature to him. "By the way, I'm Senshi the Ninja of Kai."

His excited grin never faded as he watched the other ninja. "Oh don't apologize, really. It's fine. The worst that would have happened was that you would be captured and brought to the leaders. We aren't blood thirsty killers." He laughed a bit and stretched on his branch. "We aren't evil. I'm not even sure if we are good either. We mostly keep to ourselves these days. My clan doesn't pick fights, we assist those in need, but we prefer to keep to our selves. A lot less messier that way." He nodded a bit, letting his mind wander before turning to the other dog, grinning still. "It's a pleasure to meet you, Senshi. I've never seen a Ninja Kai dog before...certainly a new sight for me. Something is telling me that you want to join our pack...Is this so...?" His sharp eyes zeroed in on the other ninja's eyes, still smiling.

"Oh don't apologize, really. It's fine. The worst that would have happened was that you would be captured and brought to the leaders. We aren't blood thirsty killers."
He smiled at that, glad to finally know that this pack that he had searched for was not blood thirsty. Knowing this made him feel that this place was right for him. Maybe is endless traveling was over and he could finally settle down.
"We aren't evil. I'm not even sure if we are good either. We mostly keep to ourselves these days. My clan doesn't pick fights, we assist those in need, but we prefer to keep to our selves. A lot less messier that way."
Ah, that is very nice to hear, he thought, licking his muzzle as he observed the other male. There was no need to fight in Senshi's eyes, most things could be solved through words, not violence. Bloodshed was not the way to go, not at all. This was the reason why there was not a scar on his body, for he talked, he didn't fight. But if he had to fight, he could and he would.
"It's a pleasure to meet you, Senshi. I've never seen a Ninja Kai dog before...certainly a new sight for me. Something is telling me that you want to join our pack...Is this so...?"
Never seen a Kai Ninja before, huh? she thought with a chuckle. "Now Mashinkage, it is hard to believe that a ninja dog could only see a ninja in their own breed," his golden eyes shined with wisdom as he spoke. During his five years of life, he had traveled all over and had been trained by many dogs of different breeds, only a few were ninjas, but all had much to teach. "And yes, I was thinking of joining, if this pack is as neutral as you say it is, for as it is, I dislike fighting."

Mashinkage grinned happily and nodded at the other ninja. "Alright then! C'mon, Senshi. Let's go introduce you to our leader and see what he says." With that being said, the young ninja dog leaped from the branches and ran to find his leader.
[Sorry for cutting it so short, I had no muse...]

[*pats* its okay]
"Alright then! C'mon, Senshi. Let's go introduce you to our leader and see what he says."
This made the kai ken chuckle, but he nodded his head in agreement; "Lead the way." Senshi skillfully followed after the koga; placing every paw in the exact center of each branch. He had learned the hard way that this was the best way to leap from one branch to another. Under the training of a Kishu Ninja, he had slipped and fallen so many times; if it wasn't for his teacher, he surely could of broke something. "You know, I'm not going to be here to catch you one day," his teacher had told him long ago. But the months spend with Kufu where not wasted, for now he was a pro at running through the trees.
"So what is your leader like?" he asked as he followed after Mashinkage. His thoughts swirled as he thought about the dog he was going to meet.

(So, I figured I'd join since you're going to Zehel anyway xD I'll reply again whenever you two decide to reach them.) Zehel Kurogane & Fai Watching as the sun slowly sank behind the far mountains, the Koga Alpha sat himself on top of the roof of the largest building. The building stood in the center of the Koga village, proudly proclaiming itself as the home of the Alpha and his beta’s. Shifting his gaze from the mountains, Zehel looked over his territory – or at least, what he could see of it. His blue eyes fell over the small pack that he had created here, each canine busying themselves with training, eating or just relaxing. A small smile wound its way onto his maw as he allowed himself to lay down, his paws dangling off of the edge of the roof, his pack was perfect. It was how he had envisioned it, aside from a few, minor details – but those didn’t matter, they probably never would.
Looking up at their newly returned Alpha, the two beta’s - Kurogane and Fai, felt overjoyed once again. It had only been a couple weeks since Zehel had returned to them from his journey, and his return held high promises for the continuing uprising of Koga. “Still bored, Kuro-puu?”Black ears twitched at the pet name the Kishu always used as a growl slipped from his maw. But for once, when he opened his maw, not a single retort was spoken, “Actually… no.” The reaction of the other beta surprised him slightly. First off, there was no ‘IT’S KUROGANE!’ or some other form of retort to his favorite pet name for the other beta, second of all… he seemed, for once, to be at peace. The canine who was always looking for someone stronger to fight had no whim to fight at the moment, he seemed very content sitting where he was, gazing up at their Alpha.
All was well, and with luck, it would stay that way.
Looking back up at Zehel, Fai stood and padded toward the building, leaping on the railing. Pushing off of the wood, he soared onto the awning and made his way to his alpha’s side, Kurogane not far behind him. Taking Zehel’s other side, Kuro smiled earnestly. “It’s perfect, Zehel.”Closing his eyes, the Alpha smiled once again. His beta’s were the only two who had ever seen his cool mask of the stoic slip, for they were the only two he trusted with his entire being. “It is. Thanks to you two.” “It wasn’t just us…” Fai’s voice faded off as his ears twitched and he shifted his gaze to the entrance of the koga village, blue eyes staring intently on the motionless opening to the wall.Opening his eyes and looking up at Fai, Zehel tilted his head slightly, “Fai?” “Someone’s coming…”

Mashinkage let out a enthusiastic howl as he bounded from the trees and over the wall. He landed gracefully in his clan's courtyard, bounding towards the building his leaders rested on. His swift movements a blur to the untrained eye. With one easy leap, he landed before his leader. Upon landing, he bowed, showing his deep rooted respect.
"Sir...we have a ninja who wishes to join our clan...He approaches now..." The loyal ninja never gazed up at his leader or beta's just staring at the tiles of the building.
