niteo_logs | I Wouldn't Say It's Very Cold

Characters: Naruto Uzumaki, Canada (Matthew Williams), Open.
When: July 7th, 9am.
Where: Near the Nescrea-Credinta Bridge
Rating: PG, possible/probable swearing.
Summary: Naruto and Matthew go shopping in Credinta, breaking multiple laws in the process.

Matthew removed his glasses to rub at his eyes wearily. He'd managed to arrive near the bridge at 9am just as he had promised Naruto, but at the cost of sacrificing a large amount of sleep due to his freakishly late sleeping pattern. Oh well, he'd managed to drink alot of coffee before he got here anyhow.

He glanced around, watching out for the blond haired ninja. The Canadian was located at the crook of a building just out of sight from the guards located on the other side of the bridge. Even though they probably wouldn't notice him even if he did walk out, Matthew preferred to be cautious about these kinds of things. Matthew didn't know Naruto's personality that well, but hopefully Naruto would do the same about these guards. Still, Matthew knew that his semi-invisibility would make it difficult for Naruto to spot him, so he'd probably have to draw the ninjas attention towards him.

He was happy to answer the questions because it gave him an opportunity to talk about his world which-he's just beginning to realize-he happens to really miss.

"well not everyone can do the Shadow Clone. It's actually a forbidden technique that I got out of a scroll that the Third Hokage had." He's going to skip over the part where he was tricked into stealing said scroll. "So I think I'm the only one-in my village at least-who can do it."

"You managed to sneak inside of one of your major leader's hideouts?!" Matthew literally gawked. Naruto didn't really look like much, but...if he was talented enough to do something like that, well...Matthew felt like he was talking to a future Prime Minister, or Queen, whom would become the among the best in history. He would have to take Naruto very seriously!

"Wow, you're amazing! No wonder your going to become the next Hokage!" Matthew gawked. "If you can do something like that, there's no doubt that you'll become the next one! When we get home anyhow..." He muttered, before realizing that he was dragging up an unhappy topic.

"Alright, so we go to our right and travel north, where the Town Square should be!" He announced happily, hoping to distract Naruto from his previous statement. "They speak a language called Russian; I can speak Ukrainian, which is close to Russian, so I'll sort of be able to understand them, but still, once we start to see more civilians we should definitely try to keep our voices down. They might notice us if they hear us speaking another language."

"Well it wasn't all that hard, really." He grinned and scratched the back of his head, trying to play it down a bit. No one could say he didn't know how to be humble.

"Of course! I've worked so hard and come so far in my training Obaa-san would be crazy not to make me the next Hokage." He pushes all the reasons he's not likely to become hokage out of his mind. Those thoughts would only distract him and destroy his good mood.

"Uh okay. Lead the way!"

"Yeah! And...oh god the amount of paperwork that will be waiting for me when I get home." Matthew shuddered momentarily.

R-Right!" Matthew nodded, beginning to pace quickly down the streets. If one looked at the way he walked, he almost appeared to be mildly marching. This was because as the Canadian found himself trapped in this dangerous place longer and longer he began to feel his mind enter in how it had been during The Great War or Second World War. Of course this was only a little bit, and for the most part Matthew was how he'd been when he left Canada of 2010.

He glanced around, looking at the different shops and buildings as their sidewalk became increasingly crowded while they passed through the main office area. This place looked very similar to Eastern Europe, (albeit an older one of the late 90s), but even so Matthew found it utterly fascinating. An all new world, with new countries, cultures and history...he wondered if "nations" like himself existed in this world. Could he perhaps meet Credinta one day?

After they had walked halfway to the shopping district, Matthew looked at his PDA again, making sure that they were in the right direction. "Okay, half way there."

Naruto followed along behind Matthew, keeping to the plan to stay quiet even though the prolonged silence got to him. But luckily the sounds of the town where making him a little less tense and stir crazy and made him comfortable enough to not babble to fill in the silence.

He observed the buildings absent-mindedly, remembering the less then warm welcome he got when he tried to cross the bridge after his arrival. It had reminded him a lot of his younger years...

He shook the thought away and turned his attention to Matthew, who was glancing at a device in his hand. He nodded in response and whispered, "Do you know which stores we need to go to?" Naruto couldn't make sense of any of the signs.
