Two days had passed since Kiri had come to visit the youngest Santaru in her new place of dwelling, the Santaru manor, a place she still found uncomfortable to be in, let alone live, but the choice that Kiri had placed in her hands continued to bear down upon the young teenager. A mednin. It was true, her idealist thoughts were not rational, she knew that even more now after the exam, but it was still a dream and a hope, nonetheless. The thought of killing others really didn't sit well with her either, but she had so few skills and ninjutsu was all she was good at, particularly the elements. Could she really be a mednin? Perhaps Kahako was just feeling sorry for the pitiful performance, yet it did pose a number of questions.
She had scraped together what little money she had at the time and purchased a basic book on healing arts and started practicing, just for a test to see if she was even able to perform simple things and it seemed possible. It was that book, and the letter written by the med-chief. However, the names were something that she couldn't get out of her mind. Shinrya and Kogami. Of course, Kogami was the surname of the Raikage and Shinrya a noble clan, but also the clan led by Kitsune, the woman she had journeyed with and met Kichirou with as well. It didn't take much research to find the name as her daughter, not someone in position as heir who married the Raikage. The letter had been placed back in the envelope and brought along with her to the offices.
It was early in the morning, very early and only people just arriving to work would be out and about this morning and it was the desk clerk who had just arrived and pointed the girl towards the office of Shinrya-Kogami Kahako. It was a bit of a walk, the building was rather intimidating, though there was very little the youth did not find intimidating. The knowledge that she was a Jinchuuriki and had yet to register was still fresh in her mind. It rarely was not. The Lion Volt made sure of it, mocking her under it's locked seal which felt like it was weakening to the young Santaru. She...she should admit to it, though. Perhaps when finding out why Kahako singled her out to join the medics and if it was just out of pity. That was important to know for the young girl. Whether she was just feeling sorry for the inept, stuttering genin or truly saw potential. If Kahako believed in the possibility of Sayomi.
The office was empty, it was very early in the day, after all. The woman who directed her did mention it as well, to come back later on, but Sayomi feared that she would lose the nerve to do so if she left. So she would wait. The minutes ticked by and boredom grew and so did exhaustion. It was comforting to sit down against the wall next to the door, though it did not take long before her head started to droop and the girl to fall asleep, still holding both the book and letter in her arms.
