At this very moment, Kain felt strange, a sense of warmth filled his soul as his lips curved into a genuine smile, This sparkle in the man's eyes matching the stars as he looks to the smiling figures of whom which shared his company, Throughout the years of his life, Never had he felt so.. Calm, and at peace, Kain's life was filled with constant worry and fear, and even now in this particular moment, With the world's fate hanging in the balance, The quest and journey and sure perils that lain strewn across his future like a scarlet river of blood. He couldn't muster the need to even worry or frown.

Kyraii smiled as she looked to Kain, Her statement causing him to shake his head in slight disagreement, The words that he was too speak soft and gentle, Like the smoothest silk. "Indeed, I might be a warrior by trade Miss Kyraii, But that doesn't mean that your company would bore me in fact, I am sure we could enjoy simply conversating together, Besides I prefer peace over war." It was true, Kain wasn't a man to quickly jump into battle and shed blood for no reason at least. He wished to try and convince the women of such things, As he was sure by her reactions that, His trust was yet completely learned.

A bit of relief filled his soul when they both agree in unison upon touring the man among the village, Which in turn meant that his goal of earning their trust to do so was at least earned. "I would love the company of you both, So long as you do not mind traveling with a stranger who will surely get many weird glances for carrying a large scythe along his back." Kain chuckled slightly as he walked his way out to the main room of the inn, His eyes looking over his shoulders to confirm that they were following along. Hashirama, This monument you speak of, I assume that it is open and away from most of these villagers, Considering you mentioned an amazing view, I also assume it to be high up. "Perhaps we should travel there, I wish to show you something, That you would enjoy." Kain grinned as he motioned the man to lead the way.

One at a time the group seemed to file out slowly out of the inn, Kain's eyes once again admiring the beautiful landscape that was the village around him, It felt as though he would never get tired of it. His gaze quickly changing to that of Hashirama before speaking subtly. "Shall we?"
-------------------------------------

The wind was still among the top of the mountain which beheld the monument as the group rounded the corner to the top, Kain's eyes widened from the simple beauty and amazement, Hashirama's earlier statement of the view was no jest, As Kain stepped to the edge of the cliff hanging over the new founded village, His amazement was enough to nearly take his breathe away. "It truly is a sight to behold Hashirama, It is quite impressive and beautiful, But I must admit, I didn't ask you to bring me here to see the view." Kain turned as his eyes seemed cold, His enjoyment and child like wonder completely wiped from his face. "In all honesty, I wanted to test a theory of which I had heard recently. I've heard that the hearts of men can be interpreted in the heat of battle as their powers clash, I wish to see your true heart, If you so allow me." .

Kain was filled with happiness and determination as the man seemed to smirk, and respond with an agreement to the proposition. Kain walked forward to the man standing a mere foot from him, Waiting for Kyraii to get to a safe position before speaking. "Since I am new to your customs, I wish we battle on my terms. First the bow." Kain backed up to a bowing distance, His fist pressed hard against his chest as he signaled Hashirama in a way to imitate him as he bowed forward and once again arose. "The terms are simple my friend, We clash and spar, No holding back, No hard feelings at the end, and most of all, The first to admit defeat must kneel before the other as one would a leader or superior, Upon one knee with their fist to their chest, And as I said before, No holding back, Which means you and I are allowed to use anything in our arsenal including weapons and jutsu. Let us begin.

Kain took a deep breathe as he turned to Hashirama, Walking a few paces away, causing a small gap between him and his sparing partner before unsheathing his scythe, Placing the hilt against the dirt below his feet, The pure weight of his dragon tooth weapon alone cratering the ground slightly. Soon enough, Kain sprinted forward, The scythe leading behind him as it became parellel with the ground, The crescent curvature of the blade clearly pointed at the his foe, Kain's feet carrying him quickly towards Hashirama, But not to attack head on, As the man nearly became almost withing striking distance of his foe, Kain quickly slid to his knees, sliding past Hashirama, The blade sweeping towards his feet, Clearly an attempt to catch his foe off guard, Knowing the man would most likely find a way to dodge, Kain would follow up by trying to swiftly stand back to his feet in time to have and use the small advantage to gauge his opponents speed, and strength, In preparation of the next move.
