"Is it a cat?"
"Nope." Airi replied as she spotted the same cat which had prompted the suggestion from her brother. "I thought as a Shinobi you were supposed to be observant"
"Sorry, I must have missed the class on 'I spy with my little eye'." Hiraku replied as he cast a weary look towards his cherished sibling. The dull morning sky was sapping what little energy he had at this hour, he tugged at his clothes to try cover any areas which were failing to keep the piercing cool air at bay.
As the pair continued their walk through the village streets there were many sights to see, people going about their lives, children running around without a care in the world, their parents running after them trying to keep them under control. Hiraku stopped, he caught sight of a scruffy looking man bundled up at the side of the street, another look revealed a translucent blue figure next to him. The pair shared a look which told them exactly what the other was thinking in an instant.
A few minutes later Hiraku emerged from the nearby shop with a steaming warm cup of coffee, as he made his way over to the man the comforting warmth of the liquid radiated through the cup into his hands. Upon reaching the man he leant down and offered the beverage to him, "Here, you look like you could do with a hot drink." He said with a smile. The man thanked him and took the drink, grasping it tightly with both hands. At this close distance the blue figure was much more clear to Hiraku, it was the spirit of a large dog sitting next to the man, panting away happily, "Good boy." Hiraku said quietly as he made eye contact with the late canine.
"What did you just say?!"
The scruffy man was on his feet in an instant, the cup he was holding onto so tightly before now discarded on the ground in fury. Hiraku backed away quickly, holding up his hands as he realised what had happened.
"No no no, I was talking to the dog."
An argument which wasn't exactly well thought out or delivered seen as he was the only person here that could actually see the animal. As the man approached looking even more angry by the second, Hiraku continued to back away while trying to think of a quick way to explain the situation. Airi on the other hand, continued to roll around on the floor laughing at the mess her brother had gotten himself into. She was so useful sometimes.
