The Shinobi and the Shinigami(closed with AvaAssassin)

The sounds of pots and pans could be heard coming from the kitchen as Yano searched for the right kind of pan that she would need before finding the small baking pan. She then went to get a large side of tuna she had been thawing. She then cut it off in an odd shape behind the fin and put the bigger piece in the freezer again before she slipped it on an oil coated pan. Once the food was in the over she took a moment to recover from the pain throbbing from her wounds before going in to set the table for two. She managed before going back into the kitchen to take out the food. She then brought it out with soy sauce and lemon on the plate along with some smaller food items she had made to complete the meal and some water for him and sake for her.

Haru merely sat meditating in her living room for the time being. Though he could smell the scent of food from where he was currently sitting. His mouth started to water.

Once the food was done and on the table, she stepped back into the living room. She cleared his throat to get his attention before nodding for him to follow her. "Come and eat before it get's too cold." She said before turning and walking into the kitchen.

Haru followed her into the kitchen and sat down at the table. He closed his eyes for a time before he began to eat.

Yano ate in silence as she ate with him. Poring herself some tea she offered him some not wanting to seem rude towards him. "Kyō wa watashi o tasukete kurete arigatō. Anata ga kite inakatta baai, watashi wa shinde itadarou. (Thank you for helping me today. I would have died if you hadn't come.)" She told him as she sat the teapot down and continued eating.

Haru had accepted the tea and sipped it calmly before he looked to Yano. "Nani ka warui koto ga okotta baai, watashi wa jibun jishin o yurushite inaidarou."(I wouldn't have forgiven myself if something bad had happened to you)

Yano tilted her head slightly and arched her brow. "Dōiu imidesu ka? (What do you mean?)" She asked "Wareware wa bearly otagai o shitte imasu. Wareware ga nagaiai otagai o shitte iru yōde wa arimasen. Anata wa, hon'no sūjitsumae no ban ni watashi o mitashite imasu.(We bearly know each other. It's not like we have known each other for a long time. You only meet me a few nights ago.)" She said as she watched him.

Haru shrugged, pushing the food around the plate for a moment. "Anata ni tsuite nanika tokubetsuna mono ga arimasu yō ni watashi wa chōdo kanjimasu..." (I just feel like there's something special about you...)

Watashi ni tsuite tokubetsuna koto wa nani mo arimasen. Watashi wa anata no koto o yakusoku suru koto ga dekimasu. (There is nothing special about me. I can promise you that)" She told him without looking up from her plate as she continued to eat. She looked up as an old dog who had been hiding from the templars wandered in and looked at Haru before he began sniffing him.

Haru bent an arm down to let the dog sniff him.(No muse; sorry)

The old dog wondered over to Haru and sniffed his hand before giving it a lick. Yano smiled slightly at the old dog and Haru. She continued to eat her food in silence.

lol no worries.))

Haru smiled and began to stroke the old dog's fur. It was matted but still somehow soft.(Thanks.  )

Yano smiled at the old dog before taking a piece of food from the large piece of fish and sat it on the floor for the dog. "Ī ko. (Good boy.)" She told the dog before going back to her own meal.

Haru ate his own food as well, though kept glancing at the dog. He questioned her about him, asking her if she'd given him a home here.

Yuno nodded. She explained that she had found the old dog in the woods half starved to death. She had feed him and let him come in out of the rain once and now he just stays around. Smiling she reached out and scratched behind one of the dogs ears.

Haru watched the dog's tail wag as she scratched behind an ear. He couldn't help but grin. Not only could she fight, but she loved animals just like he did. Now he only had to find out if she believed in prophecies from the Great Dragon.

Yano went back to eating every once in awhile giving a piece of food to the dog who ate it happily with a wagging tail. He was the only family she had left and had been happy he had been wondering the forest when their home had been attacked.

Haru said nothing as he ate quietly. He definitely could see the bond between this Shinigami and this dog.

Once she was done eating she got up and took her plate into the kitchen and set them in the sink. She then came back with a bowl of water for the dog before sitting down and pouring herself some saki before offering him some.

Haru nodded and took a sip of the saki for a moment before he finished his food.

Once he was done she took his plate into the kitchen where she sat it in the sink to wash later. Walking back in she sat back down before taking a drink from the Saki bottle. "Osoku natte kita yo. Sōryo-tachi wa anata o kitai shite imasen ka? (It's getting late. Aren't the monks expecting you back?)" She asked without looking at him. Really she enjoyed his company. It had been so long since she had spent time with anyone.

Haru shrugged his shoulders indifferently. "Karera wa watashi no rūchin o shitte imasu."(They know my routine) He said simply with a grin.

Yano shrugged and ran her hand down her dogs back, scratching him some making his leg thump. She really didn't want him to go anywhere but she wasn't sure if she should ask him to stay. "Sonogo, yoru no yotei wa?(What are your plans for the night then?)" She asked as she glanced over at him.

Haru shrugged. He didn't know himself what he was going to do that night, so shrugging was all he could do.

Anata wa sanpo ni watashitoisshoni kitaidesu ka? Watashi no inu wa, maiban nerumae ni mori no naka o aruite toru no ga sukidesu. (Would you like to come with me for a walk? My dog likes to take nightly walked through the forest before bed.)" She offered as she looked over at him. She couldn't explain why she liked Haru so much but she didn't want him to leave.
