"I'm never... riding... on your back... ever... AGAIN..." Chee said, obviously winded, she had to lean against a tree to keep her balance. Puppet giggled at her, "I didn't want to be late for the big... well... you know..." She gave a nervous laugh and skipped through the village, Chee and Adrian grudgingly stalked behind her.
Puppet stopped at every store, every shop, every stand. She had perfect navigation of the place.
"Hey Puppet... how do you know your way around here so well?" Chee asked, now right by her side.
"Well see, in my 500 years or so, I've lived in many places. I used to live here as well... about... 100 or so years ago. For about 30 years... then I met a complication, and had to leave." Her voice lowered at the end, Chee could barely make it out.
"Care to elaborate?" She asked.
Obviously ignoring Chee, Puppet twirled and walked to the Raikage's office. Which was quite obvious with the Kanji of Lightning painted proudly on the front.
'What the hell is she hiding?' Chee wondered, following behind with Adrian.

Wind blew through the Raikage's office, and he put the papers down he had in his hands. "She's here." He glanced to the Jonin he was just assigning a mission to and in a quiet yet extremely threatening he barked, "Out."
They left without another word.
"You may enter Puppet." He called out the window, she was there in a split moment. "I thought I told you to call me Haha." She teased, and hugged the old man.
Chee entered the room with Adrian, the Raikage nodded at her, "One of the Hayashi's. Welcome back home." He glanced back from Puppet and Chee, "Is she here to help you? Haha?" Puppet nodded, "Yeah! She's a good friend of mine, she'll be of good use to you, I promise!"
'Haha? He doesn't sound like he's laughing at her... is it Japanese for something?' Chee thought, eying the two.
~~~~~~
After a long conversation, Chee needed to know, she walked up to Puppet, determined to figure out what the Raikage was to her. She looked right up at her, "Puppet, what is he to you?"
"Kare wa watashi no musuko desu." She replied in Japanese. Chee could only make out, "He is my ___" What the blank word was, she didn't know... But all she could do was wonder, when Puppet dragged her from the office.
I know that was insanely terrible, had absolutely no real substance to it... and it overall sucked.
