After a lengthy exercise, Gemini finally got tired. Walking towards the camp once again she grabbed a few more fresh branches of leaves and dead pine needles, thinking always better to have too much than not enough. Once she got back and placed the pile down near Ryogen she decided to take a quick bath in the pond. She was sweating from her dance in the trees, and since she hadn't seen Aki in some time, and Ryogen was still passed out, she figured it safe enough. She walked a little bit away from Ryogen, just in case he woke up, or was faking it, so he wouldn't be able to see any details when his eyes opened. She placed her blades on the ground gingerly, knowing they could withstand most any blow, but loving them too much to dishonor them. She stripped her clothes off down to her under garments, figuring this way, if Aki did come back he wouldn't be getting a show. The cool water wrapped around her lithe body as she lowered it into the water, reveling in the feeling of it touching her skin and rinsing off the sweat from the day. It felt as if she was washing away all the pain and suffering she had felt during her practice. Always when she was able to go into the wood and do her dance did she envision the trees as the men who had taken her husband, and always did she end with tears in her eyes. She brushed the water over her strong but slender arms, getting the grime from the day off. The water felt good when it hit her muscular stomach, making the heat of her body cool to a reasonable temperature. She splashed some of the water onto her face and dipped her head in, getting her long dirty blonde hair soaking wet to keep her cool. Walking out of the water she used a long piece of leather to tie up her hair in a pony tail, the end of her hair brushing the middle of her back. She sat on the ground for a bit, letting the heat from the sun dry the under garments she had worn into the water before putting her clothes back on. Once dressed and with her scimitars sheathed she let out a long sigh, letting all her pain out, and took in a deep breath, bringing in any good she could think of. She walked over to where Ryogen was and began setting up for the fire. They had time before they needed to light it, but she wanted to have it ready to go when they did, and she needed to hunt. They had brought no food with them, and while the next town was not that far away, she knew everyone would be hungry, especially Ryogen. As she glanced over at him again while making the fire she gave a small smile. He seemed to be such a good brother to Abandi, she wondered if she would have done the same if it had been her in his place. Leaving town after town, not ever having steady work, and not because of his own making, but because of Abandi. His sister. Gemini understood how it was to not work, she had been doing that for awhile, taking odd jobs here and there whenever presented or when she needed coin. She sighed as she finished placing the smaller branches over the larger to form a tepee of sorts, just crouching there and staring.
