Nine and Five.

Echo's smile merely widens and if she allows it he begins leading her towards the exit his grasp on her hand not loosening unless she attempts to tug free, the Kyuubi stirs slightly in it's cage the feelings the bloodlust that was allowing it to poison more of Echo's mind beginning to recede..causing it's vulpine eyes to narrow in barely restrained rage as Echo feels more at peace with every passing moment.

If the two leave unhindered a promise of opening a tab from Echo who will in fact be returning here soon, Echo glances up towards the sky which begins to dim stars becoming visible with the mix of blue and orange that is the dusk.

His smile is peaceful before he turns his gaze towards the girl and gives her a small wink from his left eye if she returns his gaze.

Minorin continues to hold Echo’s hand as he leads her towards the exit. She notices that his hold on her hand hasn’t loosened in the slightest, she doesn’t mind at all – actually it makes her very happy that he’s continued to hold her hand. A soft smile began to spread across her face as she noticed this, the smile unbeknownst to her for the time being.

She looks around for a little while as they near the exit, she spots the elderly couple – who, by chance, see her as well and wave to them as the two exit the restaurant.

Her blush intensifies, her free hand twitching upwards before the girl forces it back into its stationary position as she turns her face towards the horizon.

An orange band is wrapped across a small portion of the sky lowest to the earth, a dazzling blue making a last stand against the red tinted canvas of sky. The girl found that if she focused hard enough she could clearly make out a couple stars peeking through hesitantly, waiting for darkness to fall upon the canvas so they could shine their brightest.

Soon she notices through her peripheral vision that Echo is looking at her, she turns her head towards the boy to look at him as well – to find him winking at her.

She feels the butterflies in her stomach again; they seemed to be multiplying now. Her eyes widen a little in surprise, she really needed to find a way to match his flashy actions.

But for now she’ll squeeze his hand playfully.

Wind surrounds the two and begins floating them upwards with the wind currents he creates, he smiles and chuckles as they begin flying towards the Konoha village gates and towards her home of Tengakure.
His flight pattern is much slower then his earlier burst of godlike speed, he hums a strange tune as they fly through the night sky.

"..Huh...wonder where I cam up with that?" He blinks once his eyes tilting upwards before he glances towards the girl and grins "Ah sorry...music just seems to pop out every so often!" He says chuckling sheepishly before leading the two in a single spiral through the air.

She still panics a little as her feet lift off the ground, her heart going into overdrive. Flying was just so unnatural to her, then again she wasn’t in control at all and it would only be her second time, so no wonder the small girl would panic.

As Echo flew them towards the gates of Konoha her panic was slowly fading, her body slowly adjusting to flight and her brain reminding her that he wouldn’t drop her… Probably.

Soon enough they were past the gates, heading towards Tengakure at a much slower pace than when they had been flying to Konohagakure, giving her plenty of time to ogle at the gorgeous skyline as the two flew. She smiled as she heard him begin to hum an odd tune she hadn’t heard before. She wondered if he might be musical, perhaps he played an instrument of some sort or was simply a fan of the art. It didn’t matter much to her, just another thought. She would glance at his face as he lead them through the sky, smiling contently as she saw him blink and wonder where his muse had suddenly come from.

She giggles softly at his apology as they spiral, there was no need to say sorry to her, she’d rather enjoyed his humming, “That’s fine with me; do you happen to play an instrument or anything?” Her tone was mild and playful as she inquired about his musical talents.

He chuckles softly again and nods at her question "Yeah..I used too..but haven't been able too for awhile.." He states her frame being pulled closer to his own so she can cling to him in case she wants to feel a little safer.

"What about you? You got any hobbies?" He asks his eyebrow arching upwards in curiosity as they speed up slightly the clouds being swirled around once upon a whim of Echo's shaping them into a spiral well out of their way, Echo's eyes trained on them for a moment before his gaze moves back to the girl he's flying with as the forests and plains of the Fire Country roll past them.

She smiles at his response, only to blush uncontrollably as she’s pulled in closer to him. She’s glad that they were closer now, it felt safer this way, but it was just so embarrassing. She clung to him, turning her red face to the side as she timidly spoke, “You should start up again. Oh, and I guess I don’t really have hobbies, well, I train almost every day, but that isn’t really a hobby… I really like bunnies though, if that counts for anything.”

As she spoke she noticed the clouds being shaped into a spiral, with her face turned the way it was she’d only just barely seen it, but it had been an amazing sight to see.

He chuckles softly his eyes focused on the girl in his arms now as her arms cling to him, he smiles softly at the act and listens as she speaks of him returning to his music..
That's a thought...he could quit being a Shinobi...he could live out his dream...Konoha no longer needs him...these are times of peace..

His smile widens "Milady, has anyone ever told you that you're as clever as you are beautiful?" He asks simply before increasing the speed of their flight and spiraling several times through the air..he hums once more the tune becoming a bit more pronounced as this epiphany hits him.

Her face reddens, a tingling hot sensation filling her cheeks. No one had even called her beautiful before! And he's called her "Milady" again! Suddenly she turns her red face towards him, flustered and stuttering slightly, her eyes wide - “Um, no! I’ve, uh, never heard anything like that before!” She wants to turn her head away again, but she is so extremely flustered that it isn’t possible for her.

She just barely notices their spiraling motion through the air as she looks into his face.

He chuckles again his eyes flickering with amusement as they fly past the gates of Tengakure no sato, he glances down at her and asks calmly "Which ones yours?" He states while circling a small section of the village near the housing in their flight...after all...just floating is kind of boring.
His eyes take in the sights of the village as he waits for the girl in his arms to answer, another date is definitely a must this ones cute....really cute actually...and not just her looks, she's like the definition of cute if he had to say something about it!

She looks around, face hot as he chuckles and asks her a question. She’s trying to figure out which floor her apartment is on and in which building; everything seemed different from the sky. Soon she found the building she was looking for. The only way she’d been able to figure out which floor and building was hers was due to a faint pink light emanating from one of the rooms on the fourth floor of a reasonably tall but plain building. The reason why she even knew of the pink light was because that room was her mother’s - who was, regrettably, a huge fan of pink who Minorin had visited recently and, fortunately in this case, noticed her taste in obnoxious lighting.

She would point in the direction of the glowing pink window, “See that one, the pink light coming through that one room’s window? My apartment is two rooms over to the left… Do you plan on entering through my window or something?” She really was curious, Echo seemed full of surprises though, so who could be sure?
