Shiva wasn't surprised to see Esmerelda shocked by the blood clone technique. Few outside of the Chijoumae clan were able to use such a technique and she had managed to learn it from her fiancee. It came in handy when she wasn't able to use her other clones. All it took was a little blood, great focus, and a summoning seal to make one. She then smirked when her dome trapped Esmerelda inside feeling her chakra being absorbed into her body and then back out into the dome creating a circulatory system of sorts like one for blood. She could hear her shouting at her now and smiled at her determination as she soon heard her attacking the dome which would repair itself each time struck. "That's the kind of spirit INTEL looks for. The determination to never give up to fight on to protect everything that matters most in life even when it seems hopeless. You may have lost this fight but I know you will train long and hard to ensure you don't make the same mistakes again." Shiva then removed her hands and cutting off the chakra the self repairing and chakra absorbing effect would stop allowing Esmerelda to break out now. She had absorbed a good bit from Esmerelda but only enough to leave her a little fatigued and tired. "Congratulations you passed my test. Let us go down to the small village nearby to discuss your job I want to give you and the responsibilities that come with it my dear." She then gestured to the path down the mountain wanting Esmerelda to lead the way. There was much to be discussed once there.

Esmeralda was surprised as she struck the dome and was able to break out of it. It wasn't until just a second ago that she heard she lost the battle and at first she was disappointed in herself. Even trying her hardest she could not win but was more surprised when she was told that she passed the test even with losing the battle. Her eyes watched as the woman started down the path back to the village before something occurred to her. Why exactly is the INTEL even recruiting members for? They wouldn't be if they didn't need them so something must be going on. "Excuse me? Why exactly is the INTEL looking for members? I mean it not like you need them at the moment." she asked before looking over at her with curious eyes.

"Come and let us talk as we walk." Shiva replied stopping when she heard Esmerelda's question and following comment. She turned around to face her a serious expression on her face arms crossed against her chest now. Maybe it was true they didn't but that wasn't a reason not to recruit people and prepare for the future anyways. "Do we really need a reason to? Better safe than sorry and sitting around doing nothing when we could work to prevent future incidents from happening ahead of time. That's good enough reason for my organization to recruit people." She said simply nodding at her own response. She would nod for Esmerelda to follow her now and would continue on heading down the path. That was her reasoning for recruiting and she felt she needed no greater reason than that. Just because there was peace didn't mean one had to go back to sitting by idly and doing nothing. She still had her earth spear technique up which she was sure Esmerelda might notice but she only did it to keep warm in the cold weather.

Esmeralda wasn't trying to question the motives that the INTEL had if she did then she wouldn't be joining. She nodded her head as she looked forward but soon looked down at the snow covered ground. There are rough times ahead but she just wished that she knew what that was. Her emerald colored hair flowed behind her as she looked over at the woman. "Your part of the Ryuuji clan are you not? I heard great things about the clan and I was always curious about the Glass Release you guys use. Pretty amazing if I say so myself." she complimented as they finally made it back to the village.

Shiva knew that Esmerelda wasn't trying to really question INTEL's motives but her own. She just wanted to get her point across to the woman so she would understand what INTEL was about. Her motives were what drove INTEL forward so their motives were her own original ones. At Esmerelda's question of her being from the Ryuuji clan she slowed her pace a little to fall in line with Esmerelda remaining silent as she went on about how she was impressed by them and the work they did using their kekkai toutai. "I'm the second born of the clan head Evelyn Ryuuji. My younger sister Marianisa was set up to become clan head next until she took leave to travel the world so it's back to me but I may pass. Thanks for you appreciation though towards my clan." She then dug into her weapon's pouch and pulled out a glass kunai to hand to Esmerelda. "Made that with my kekkai toutai you mentioned. Sharp as hell around the edges but light so it slices through the air twice as fast." She looked forward again realizing they had reached the small village at the base of the mountain now. She would then lead Esmerelda to a small pub located in the center so they could talk over some drinks.

Esmeralda took the glass kunai in her hands and examined it. It really was a piece of art even it people consider it nothing but a weapon. Though she tried handing it back to Shiva to see if she wanted it back or was it a souvenir or something. They found a place at the small pub as the waiter came over to see what they wanted to drink. "Ice tea please and whatever my friend wants." she stated as she thought it would be a good idea to buy Shiva a drink and not the other way around.

"Keep it if you want it." Shiva would simply reply as Esmerelda seemed to want to give the glass kunai back. She had plenty more stored elsewhere so what was the harm in giving her one of them. They held no real sentimental value to her and weren't worth much for resale unless an artist wished to buy them. Noticing Esmerelda change course towards a pub now she would follow her inside taking a seat across from her at the table they sat at now. "No alcohol for me so Herbal tea if you have that or some fruit juice will do." A downside to being pregnant and one she loathed. Moments like this she really needed a drink to calm her nerves. Looking to Esmerelda she pulled out a photo now placing it facedown on the table. "Right so the job I am offering you now is commander of INTEL's medical corp division. Your medical skills are top notch so who better you is better for this job. I hope you will accept it Esmerelda I wont offer it again if you refuse."
A once in a lifetime deal for sure she thought. Grabbing the photo she then flipped it over and slide it towards Esmerelda revealing it to be a photo of Katherine Storm. "Your first job will be to recruit Katherine Storm. I understand you two have a past together so who better than you to do it right? I need you to have a clear head so please settle whatever issues you two have together before returning." Soon enough their drinks were brought to them a iced tea for Esmerelda and for Shiva a blended fruit mix drink.

Esmeralda nodded her thanks as she slip the glass kunai into her right thigh pouch. Her eyes drifted over to the woman and she had just realized she was pregnant. The woman had to wonder exactly how much longer does Shiva have until the baby comes. That was when the mention of this offer to join INTEL being a one time offer only. If she wasn't sure about joining then she would have never put in her papers.
"INTEL is the only place where I see myself being the most useful. Kirigakure has a amazing medical staff so they don't need me. I want the job no matter what it entails." she accepted with a determined look on her features. That was when her eyes drifted down to look at the newly shown picture of Katherine Storm. They haven't seen each other in a long time ever since Esmeralda entered that coma.
"It will all be settled no worries. I hope you don't mind me asking this though when are you due." Esmeralda asked finally taking a sip of her ice tea.

Of course she hadn't expected Esmerelda to refuse joining INTEL since she had put in a request with her kage. She just wanted to see if she thought she could handle the greater responsibility of being one of the commanders INTEL's top brass. Sure she might have a little less authority because she led the medical corps but it was still a great honor nonetheless. "Glad to hear it my dear and I love your enthusiam. I'll leave recruiting medical ninja for INTEL to you then since it is now your job." She smiled looking up as a waitress brought them their drinks now. She remained silent as Esmerelda spoke of handling the issue while recruiting Katherine Storm taking a few sips of her herbal tea now letting out a soft sigh of joy now. "Not that it's my business to pry. You two seemed quite close you must have been in love. She's been a emotional wreck ever since from the reports I read." She fell silent at the mention of being asked when she was due. She was a medical ninja after all so she should've expected her to notice it somehow. "About eight months to go now and the worst part is yet to come. I'm a Ryuuji though and we are strong women so I will endure it all." She replied chuckling lightly just because she said that didn't make it feel any easier. Thankfully she wasn't alone in all of this she had her husband to be to support her unlike the last time she got pregnant.

Esmeralda features took a saddened look to them at the mention of her and Katherine relationship. They were madly in love ever since they first met though things might be a little rough for them at the moment. For the past few months she has been in a coma and has yet made contact with her since she had awoken. "We were in love at one time. Though I don't know if we still will be once we get back together for the first time since the coma." she added as a smile finally returned to her lips when she heard how much longer to go for Shiva pregnancy. It must be nice having kids and who knows maybe one day she too will have children with the one that she loves. "I hope you child is blessed with good health and a amazing life." she stated with a smile as she raised her iced tea to that before taking a quick sip.

Shiva would note the saddened look confirming her suspicions. It said more than words ever could. The two had been quite in love and with the incident her fiancee Katherine had been left devastated. She had attempted to date according to reports but all attempts had been self-destructive. Eventually she'd given up it seemed and became obsessed with work as a member of her village's anbu black ops. "If your love was true then it will presevere through anything this I know from experience. Hold your head high and hope for the best when you meet her. That is all you can do in the end." Shiva would smile in response to Esmerelda's smile. She then glanced down at her own stomach rubbing it a little now. It wasn't that big or noticeable yet but sure enough a small life was growing within. The thought made her want to cry thinking about her miscarriage before but things were better now so she felt she could finally move on from it all. "Thank you for your blessing Esmerelda-san. I was hoping you might help me along with my pregnancy. To give me regular check-ups to make I and the baby are both doing fine." A personal request but not one she'd force onto Esmerelda if she was too busy for it. She hummed gently taking a few more sips of her tea now.

Esmeralda being a medical ninja indeed had the right knowledge to give regular checkups on pregnant women. Shiva will be her first patient like this and she always liked trying new things to test her medical skills. Though at the same time she was worried about the kunoichi being pregnant while trying to fight in her condition. It was a little unsettling but it just made it more important for her to accept this proposition. To make sure that the fighting isn't taken that big of a toll of the health of the baby. Wetting her throat with a quick sip of her iced tea before placing it back down on the counter in front of them. "If you have nobody else to give you regular checkups then I would be glad to. That way I can make sure the fights you get into isn't taken a toll on the baby. Regarding to that please be careful when you fight people okay." she stated her concern as she pushed some loose strand of hairs behind her ear.

"I have someone in Konohagakure to care for me. I'd just like you to handle everything for me medically while I'm on duty away from the village. You don't have to worry about me fighting too much longer once I'm about two to three months I'll start taking it easy on myself and the baby." She had thought everything through already and formulated a plan. She had wanted to push it a little longer but Roronora had insisted by two months she gradually start to ease out of physical training and sparring with others. She didn't want to worry him so she had relented and promised she would so no complications would arise later on. She'd take a few more sips of her tea now before setting it down again. "So did you and your fiancee ever plan to have kids? I've wanted to have them for as long as I could remember until my miscarriage. Was afraid to for awhile after that until I met my fiancee. I decided to try again for him and well here I am." It took a lot of courage but Roronora was worth it. She was curious if Esmerelda got back with her fiancee would they want kids? If so well she figured Roronora might be willing to donate to their cause if they had no one else to go to.

Esmeralda was glad to hear that her new patient had somebody close to her to take care of her. You never know anymore if just because somebody is pregnant that the father is actually around. She nodded her head in agreement to everything before the word miscarriage came up in the conversation. It must be difficult to lose a baby in a traumatic experience like that. Just the mention of that word always made her sad no matter who it had happened to. "I don't know about Katherine but I would love to have kids someday. I have looked at some donation clinics but maybe it would be easier just to adopt." she stated as she sipped at her tea before glancing down at the picture of Katherine as she stared at it. Esmeralda doesn't know how the reunion would go exactly but she can only hope that it goes off without a hitch and they can get reengaged together again. She called over a waiter and order a small class of sake as she nodded her thanks and awaited for her drink to arrive.

Shiva knew Esmerelda was just a little concerned about her since she was pregnant. It was more stressful for single moms whose babies fathers had abandoned them. She would admit that had been her initial fear until Roronora proposed to her that night at the festival in Konohagakure. He would never leave her side for too long unless it was for a mission or she had to leave on her own mission. The two were practically inseperable when they weren't training. "Whose to say unless you ask and well adopting is just as good as having your own. They might call me the iron Maiden but I have a huge weakness for kids. They just get to me." She smiled sheepishly at admitting that to Esmerelda. She moved to grab her cup of fruit juice taking a few more sips of it now. She then sighed lightly in content placing a hand on her stomach now rubbing it a little now.
She couldn't wait until she found out the sex of the baby once it had developed enough. She knew Roronora was looking forward to it just as much as she was. "If I might ask how did you two fall in love? File only mentions you working on several missions together." Shiva would ask curious to hear about what she had asked. It was always nice to here how two people had met and fallen in love. Most might frown upon a gay couple but Shiva had been there herself before so she didn't mind it one bit.
