Heiwa no Saiten [OPEN to the Genin who may or may not have been traveling with me]

平和の祭典

It only took a day by way of speedboat to get to the Land of Waves. She slept for a full day with her fellow Genin ninja, some of them were her friends. She remained trapped and enclosed from all sides by girls, so that no men could try to lift up her skirt and receive a throbbing boner just by looking at her panties. That would be lewd and perverse.

She finally woke up, still well preserved and all. She stood up as she was one of the last ones to get up, and patted down her dress, making sure her ninja pouches were still there. All of Kirigakure's ninja got off the boat. It seemed as if they were the first ones here, for she saw no sign of Konohagakure or Sunagakure's insignia. She composed her outift, hair, and face. She was fabulously perfect.

"Hm..... what should I do first?" she whispered.

The festival had lasted a week. Or maybe it was two weeks. It was just right either way, because she felt satisfied with the way things went. She bonded closer with her Kirigakure friends, and met up with some foreigners, and to her delight, none of them tried to touch or bad-talk her, although she could not help but blush as some boys checked out her body. But being more than a day away from her baby was not a very pleasing thought. Sometimes Oko was nervous about taking back Otsu after being away for an extended period of time. There was this dreaded gut feeling that she might have grown up faster than she thought while she was away, and either was no longer the playful child she once knew or had resented her completely. Sometimes, Oko could not help but think of Otsu as a temporarily play mate while she herself was going through her adolescent years; looking at someone who came directly from her comforted her and gave her hope. She often asked herself how bad of a mother she is?

Oko got on Kirigakure's boats and rejoined her fellow Genin who entered the land of Rivers with her. Oko looked back, the images of faint ice festivals and soft, snow flower decorations that was omnipresent throughout the markets that it nearly overwhelmed her. Oko sat back on the boat, awaiting her journey home. She overheard something.

"Ah, did you hear? The Mizukage disappeared a few days ago. News reached back home. They had already appointed a new Mizukage. And I heard it was a Lady Mizukage!"
