I made my way a good bit. I stopped by a tea shop located just inside Amegakure. I order a glass of tea, and looked over a map I had.
'The last known location I remember seeing Risa, was at a hidden village located in between the lands of Earth and Fire.'
I drank down my tea, paid my bill, and headed on. It had been two days since I left the village, and know it looks like it'll take at least two more to get there.

(2 days later)
It was about 2 in the morning when I got just outside of the location. I set up a place and got some sleep. I woke up to the ground shaking. I quickly sensed around to see if there were any ninja's close by, but there wasn't.
"What in the world is going on?"
I focused and began scanning the area and found a trap door that had to lead to the old village. I hid and watched to see if anyone would came out of it, or go in it. After waiting for two hours, and not seeing anything I decided to go down it myself. I climbed down the tunnel unto I finally was standing on the out skirts of the village.
The Village was deserted sometime after the First Great Ninja war, by what I could tell. Me, Markus, and Risa had found this when I was a kid traveling with them. It had not changed in Twelve years. I focused and tried to sense for anyone that was in the village. There was one person, and I knew that chakra pattern well. I took off running in the direction of it. I turned the corner, and there he was...
"I see you had the same idea as me, mon ami." He said as he was putting out a cigarette. I couldn't control myself and a dashed next to him and punched him square in the jaw. He feel to the ground.
"How could you do something like that to me!?! I thought you were dead!"
He just got up and rubbed his chin. "Man what happened to the little kid that use to chase me around everywhere? I had to, it was the only way to get a message to you."
I tossed him his sword, and he caught it with one hand.
"So I take it by your message you found her?"
"Yeah, mon ami, she is her under the village trying to gain access to some bull crap power." He said.
"Well I think it's time we go and say hello."
He nodded.
