| - The fiery Eikage looked around at the city that she now stood in. It was the village of her husband, the presiding Ryūseikage. Part of her grinned at how much it had grown, much like her own had over the past few years. Some of it stemmed from a fruitful alliance with Ryūseigakure and Tokugakure, but it also came from a growing distrust towards the Great Nations, a distrust that smaller village were benefiting from in order to increase their own power and standing within the shinobi world's hierarchy. Aka shook her head to release such political thoughts, before continuing to walk through the large city. She had decided to leave her Eikage attire at home, considering it too formal for such an affair. After all, she was going to talk with her husband, and catch up on things. With their demanding jobs, they didn't have much time to see each other or their children. Their children. A dark cloud descended over Aka's mind at notion. She was worried about them, they had been going on so many missions lately, and rarely interacted with any one besides themselves. As such, she had begun having Ei shinobi tail them discreetly. Part of her suspected that Makaze was doing the same; despite the distance between them and their careers, they always shared a powerful understanding, particularly when it came to their children. It was one of the things she loved about him. With this in mind, she stepped through the doors of the building before ascending to the top floor where Makaze normally resided. The staff waved cheerfully; they knew the fiery woman well, and respected her for the title she held and the love she shared with their beloved leader. Calmly, Aka let herself into the office before smiling, seeing her husband bent over stacks and stacks of papers. "It's been a while brain fart," Aka said, using her nickname for her husband before playfully tackling with a hug. "How have you been?" she asked. "The core is coming along fine we'll get to the schematics later Genei." Makaze sighed as he waved him off. "Whatever clown man." The other replied as he warped away. The Ryūseikage looked down at his piles of papers and sighed. He had promised his wife to start doing paperwork without machines at least once a week and was regretting every word of now, especially with the state of the world. He smiled a bit as he stared out his window and smiled at the bustling street as waves of people moved through the sea of buildings. His smile quickly faltered as the thought of his children reached his mind. It had been so long since he had seen them in the flesh, no masks or disguises. Makaze slumped back into his chair and bent down to finish the rest of his paperwork. At least Aka will be here soon. He thought as his smile returned. A loud crash was heard as Makaze was knocked to the ground by a flying Aka who fell on top of him. "Real mature." He spoke in an overly stern and serious voice before his face and words melted into laughter and a giant hug. "It's so good to see you again, work is now 24/7 ya know." The genius laughed as he helped Aka to her feet and motioned for her to sit wherever as he plopped back down on his chair. "So how have you been doing?" Makaze asked. Aka laughed as they stood once more. Pulling out a nearby chair, she sat down next to him, allowing her head to rest on his shoulder. "I've been doing well," she responded, releasing a sigh of contentment; she had missed him greatly over the past months, their work serving as a constant separation. Aka allowed herself a few more seconds before straightening up once more, reclining in the chair she had chosen. Her face turned serious and her expression became grave, one only had to guess in order to know that their children were on her mind. "I'm worried about the Nagisa and Kenzou," Aka admitted, knowing that her husband shared the same preoccupation. "Lately, they have isolated themselves further and further from society, and I'm worried about the repercussions such an action will have on them." Internally, her mind drifted to their anbu deployments, one that had increased recently by their own digression. "It might be time to pull them out of the anbu, the nature of the missions aren't good for their psyche." A thought continued to trouble her however, as she wondered if their current actions were the results of how they grew up. Their conversation would be interrupted by a shinobi bursting in, one wearing the Eigakure headband. He was accompanied by a female shinobi with the Ryūsei symbol on her forehead protector. Both of them were extraordinarily out of breath, as if they had run a great distance from somewhere. "Eikage-sama and Ryūseikage-san, we have a problem," the female gasped as the two attempted to regain their stamina from the long hike. Make's face turned serious as Aka brought up their children. "I see we are on the same page then." He spoke as he put his arm around her. "Kenzou is becoming increasingly unwilling to talk or even appear near me but he seems to be happy when he's giving advice. Nagisa on the other hand I barely ever see, just like Kenzou she gives the report and leaves. Sometimes she doesn't even sound like the Nagisa I know." Makaze sighed as he looked at his lovely wife. Just then two shinobi had to burst in shouting, if not for their screams for help and frantic pace Makaze would have probably punished them for ruining a moment he barely had with his wife. "What is it?" He asked to two. Aka paused to think. "So you've noticed that too. I'm not sure if I like the way the missions are effecting their psyche. It's seems like Nagisa at times if sifting through multiple appearances and personalities as if she were still partaking in a mission. Kenzou.... well he's been pretty abrupt lately and seems like he's teetering on the edge of a cliff." Aka pondered aloud. With the interruption of the two shinobi, she turned around, about to punish them for ruining this moment. However, the frantic look on their faces stayed her hand. "What is the issue?" Aka asked. The male had finally gathered himself. "It's the twins. We tracked them as promised, before realizing they were headed for a barren portion of the Land of Focus. They got into an argument, and then Kenzou....snapped. Nagisa tried to stop him initially, and it looked like she would have succeeded, but something stopped her. The scary part is...she joined the rampage. So far there's been no collateral but, we don't know how long such a notion will hold," he reported, the female nodding her argument. The apprehension on their faces were evident; it appeared that they had witnessed a exponential amount of damage, and were greatly distressed about the health and safety of their villages and the surrounding communities.
