Kisa chased her friend into town. Unable to beat her friend for she got a head start, And Kisa had never really ran through bamboo. How Esha was so fast, She may never know. I guess it takes some getting used too. And she has lived here her whole life. Kisa then looked at Esha smiling. "Wow, This place is So cool!" Kisa exclaimed as she looked around. She could smell something in the air. It smelt so good. Maybe that is the place Esha was talking about earlier.
"So, Where is this place you were talking about?" She asked as she then looked back at her friend.

"It's over there, though I think we should change here first. Even though there are quite a few of us here in Kumo, it's against the rules to go in this form." Esha said while her ears were perked, listening in the usual bustle of the town. The rule was obvious because having a tiger, or any large cat for that matter, walking around the city streets was distressing especially to those who weren't used to it.
Esha let her tail flow and transformed into her human form. Her red orange coat transformed into deep red hair. Once finished, she adjusted the harness of her sword and placed the sword just under the small of her back. With a small stretch, Esha turned to her new friend and smiled, waiting for her to do the same. If Kisa was anything like her kind, she should be able to transform like she did.

"Oh, ok!" Kisa nodded, It was understandable. She could see how a lion or a tiger walking down the street would be odd. Kisa then transformed into her human form standing strait up. While doing so, Kisa then dusted herself off. She looked around the town as she waited for her friend to change as well.
The smell lingered in the air. It had a familiar smell to it. It reminded her when she and Takato would run through the town chasing each other. One of her fondest memories. It was also fun to watch Odessa and Takato go back and forth. She never did quiet understand why they didn't get together. They made quite the couple. Or at least in her opinion.
She turned back to her friend, she was kind of anxious to see what she looked like in the form of a human. She was sure that she was just as pretty as her fur.

"Alrighty! C'mon!" Esha grinned and hurried into the town streets. Looking around, she chuckled at the fact that the town never did change from when she was still a kid. Kazuo still ran the tavern and Mana still ran the grocer. But the store that Esha was most interested in was Mrs. Yao's dumpling store. Looking back to see if Kisa was following her, Esha said, "Have you tried dumplings before? They might not be as good as the pork buns but they are worth tasting at least once in your life."
Esha started to walk backwards while facing her new friend, "What do you guys get to eat in Sougen? I've never been there so...hehe... tell me all about it while I show you around!"

Kisa smiled at her friend as she was watching her friend walk backwards. "Dumplings? Why no I cant say i have" She said, What the heck is a dumpling? Well she was about to find out.
"In Sougen, we eat steak! Ribs! Tri Tip! You name it!" Sougen served a very wide variety of meat, One of the reasons, Kisa chose to live there, It gave her a very wide variety. "You should come visit! I know you would like it" Kisa said excitedly. She was liking the way how her and Esha got along so well. Ok so not everyone was excited to leave home like Kisa and her brother were, but it was worth a try!
"Theres also plains that seem to go on forever!!" Kisa exclaimed. Some could say it was all farmland! But Kisa could tell you all about how there was so much more land out there! And out there you're free to chase what ever you want for how long you want.

Esha tilted her head, "Well, Sougen is a grassland so it's not surprising that there will be a lot of meat there. Here in Kumo, it's either vegetables, poultry, pig or fish...we sometimes get some venison but people aren't good at hunting deer. I'd say 80% of the deer meat here are caught by my clan members." She chuckled at telling the story. She was glad that there were no animosity between the normal people of Kumo and the Tiger clan.
"Hmm...maybe I'll visit Sougen in the future." Esha smiled and turned around to walk normally again, "But for now, I'll show you Kumo! Dumplings are meatballs or fishballs wrapped in a very thing egg wrapper. They're steamed or boiled but since the meat inside is seasoned, they're delicious. Oh, look! Over there!" Esha then took Kisa's hand and quickly led her to Mrs. Yao's dumpling shop. Already, the smell of steamed sweet meats, garlic, onion, and leek were apparent and Esha's appetite was starting to make itself known.

Vegetables never sounded appeasing to Kisa. Pig, fish and poultry was something they normally got back at Sougen. But Deer was a rarity just like here in Kumo! Deer was more toward Ianne. Or at least you would think. Kisa followed the sweet smell threw her nose, Oh so that's what she's been smelling this whole time. Kisa's keen sense of smell only magnified what she smelt and it sounded good By Esha's explanation.
Before she sat down at the booth like thing when she noticed a very familiar person sitting there. Kisa blinked, She just saw him A few days ago and he sounded like he was staying home... for a while might she add.
"Taky-kun?" She asked as she stepped closer to the man.

Takato was sitting there trying one of the dumplings. He was lured in by the smell of the food and lets just say he hasn't left since. Takato was minding his own business when suddenly he heard his name being called. Or atleast his nick name. Takato turned around only to notice his sister standing right before him. "Oh!" He said swallowing the last of his food. He then noticed the red head standing next to her. She was kinda hot. Takato took a glance at her.
"And whose you're gorgeous friend you have here" He flashed his flirtatious smirk at her.

Esha blinked and looked at the hooded man. "Hi," She responded before turning to Kisa, "Friend of yours, Kisa?" She didn't think that Kisa would bump into familiar faces all of the sudden since she said it was her first time here in Kumo. Apparently Esha was wrong. From the man's scent, he wasn't human so Esha wondered if the man was also a feline.

Kisa sweatdropped. Havn't even mentioned her name and he's already hitting on her. Of course he was thats what he always did. Kisa laughed nervously as she turned to her friend. "Uh close, He's my brother" She could only imagine how this day was going to end. "Takato, This is Esha, Esha this is Takato" She said making the hand movement. She really hoped That her brother wouldn't scare her off with all the flirting he's probably planning to do.

Takato looked at the woman. What is she flirt repellent? Takato stood up only to greet her once more. "Its a pleasure to meet you, Esha" He said with a smirk plastered on his face. It was then Takato noticed that she had a particular scent. One of feline but not quite the same as him and Kisa. Maybe she was a different breed? He wasn't going to find out just starring her down.
"Please have a seat" He said offering them the two the two spare seats not too far away from him. He was intrigued, And better yet, how did she meet kisa?

"Whoa, you're her brother? What coincidence..." Esha blinked and sweatdropped a bit because just what were the chances that they'd meet Kisa's brother in Mrs. Yao's shop of all places. "This is turning out to be a very interesting day for you, Kisa. Did you even know that your bro would be here? Nice to meet you by the way, Takato."
Esha then sat on one of the shop's stools, her usual seat, and pulled her sword out to lean it against the counter. It was uncomfortable to eat with it poking her back or the person sitting next to her. Leaning over, Esha looked at what Takato was eating, "Ooo, you tried the dumplings! Good aren't they?" The tigress grinned then pat the seat next to her, "Seat over here, Kisa." She then pointed on the menu that was taped flat on the counter. "You should try the gyoza, kinda hard on cat noses but they're really good."

Kisa was amazed that she didn't start blushing, Thats what he always says to get girls to like him. But no instead she just sat down and greeted him. Kisa then sat down in the empty seat in between Takato and Esha. "Nope had no idea" She said responding to her first question. She then turns to Takato "What are you doing here?" She asked him.
"gyoza...?" She repeated as she looked at the menu. "Hm, Ok! Its worth giving a try" She giggled with her friend. Though she was worried about the smell as she mentioned She reminded herself that everything is worth trying. Kisa lived by those words, given to her by her mother, In fact, it was something both her AND her brother lived by.

"Well, I didn't know you were going to be here either" Takato replied. He looked at the girls raising an eyebrow at the Esha, It wasn't often that his flirts were ignored like that. Usually they either flirted back or rolled their eyes but never had they just continued where they doing.
"Actually, Their the best dumplings i've had" He smirked eyeing the two girls as they went through the menu. She mentioned something called gyoza. Takato raised his eyebrow he didn't see that on the menu? Takato was curious himself. maybe he should try it?
"What am I doing here? Oh, I stopped by to say hi too a friend but go figure he's busy" Takato said. Of course Sasuke was busy, He was at the dojo, probably going to bed right about now. To this day he still wonders how he manages to get up so early.

Esha chuckled, "Then we'll order three sets of those. Lucky for us that Mrs. Yao's stuff are affordable." If she was in her tiger form, Esha would have purred in anticipation but since she wasn't, only a smirk decorated her face as she ordered their food to the middle-aged woman behind the counter.
"You say that as if your home isn't a country away, Takato. Who's this friend of yours? I might know him, I've lived her all my life after all." Esha said before sipping the cup of tea that was given to her.
