Ryouchi had another day off. He seemed to be getting more vacation time since getting his team of genin. He figured he'd just go out fishing so he can make some sushi. He brought his pole and bait along as he brought a lunch with him and some tea he had in the fridge the night earlier. He was looking forward to a nice calm spring day where he could be alone with his thoughts.
Out in the woods by the river was the best place to fish in his book. Many of the others who went fishing cast their poles over the bridge in the village, but not Ryouchi. It was better to fish in a place with not so much town interaction. He cast his line and waited. He poured a cup of tea from his thermos and heated it up with his chakra. He took a sip and was overcome by the delicious concoction. Nope, absolutely nothing could make this day a bad one.

Vayne groaned as he limped out of a cave now and was blinded by the sunlight. He was dressed in what looked like rags dirtied with holes all over the place. He blinked some adjusting to the light now and then limped on outside taking in a deep breath of air. He couldn't remember the last time he had had some fresh air. Four long years was how long it had been. He couldn't recall much other than the intense training and torture he had endured. He was starving now that he thought about it and limped on down the path hoping to find someone to beg from. He grabbed his neck rudding it as he felt his curse seal burn a little bit now.
"No...I wont let you...take over...right now," Vayne muttered now taking deep breaths, The threat seemed to make it relax but only for now. He limped on some more and spotted a river that would at least quinch his thirst for now. He broke out into a run now through the brush stumbling a bit and finally reached the river falling to his knees now. He began scooping up some water into his hands and drinking it rather hungrily now. He could sense a presense nearby but he didn't care he was more focused on drinking right now.

As Ryouchi whistled as he fished, he turned his head to notice a dirty young man in rags. He looked hurt, he was thirsty as well. He put down his pole and slowly approached the boy so as not to scare him off. He seemed familiar, but he couldn't quite figure out why. He brought out his lunch and offered it to the boy as he attempted to wrap his blanket that he was sitting on around the boy.
"You alright kid, what happened?" Ryouchi asked as he offered the boy his tea. He really did look familiar. However, the person he looked like was dead Ryouchi believed. It had been four years since his disappearance. Ryouchi didn't want to hope for that to be disappointed. Afterall, it may have not been family. Ryouchi let out some smoke from his mouth to regulate his internal body heat that, he as a Sato needed to keep in check.

He could feel an uneasy feeling in his stomach now but continued to drink. Then the feeling intensified before he suddenly threw up some steam coming out of his mouth and nostrils now. This seemed to make the feeling go away for now. He then felt the presense near and his curse seal began to burn again but he simply grabbed and shut his eyes wincing a little now. He then took a deep breath and let more steam out his nostrils before opening his eyes again as the stranger seemed to wrap him in a blanket and ask him some questions now. He nodded slowly and wiped his mouth off now with his torn shirt.
"I finally...escaped my captivity," Vayne replied coughing a little. He then took another deep breath and let out some more steam now. He then relaxed and looked at the older man again. "My name is Vayne Sato by the way. That's bout all I remember from my life. I was tortured and experimented on by Orichamaru for the past four years." He then closed his eyes letting a little steam out his nose now. The man felt familiar to him as well but he couldn't remember him for some reason. He couldn't remember much for that matter. He would hear Azal rant endlessly about things he claimed to know but he shrugged him off tuning him out whenever he could manage to.

Ryouchi once had a cousin by the name of Vayne. Vayne's father was the brother of Ryouchi's meaning that Vayne would have the same direct bloodline as his own. That would explain the heat being released from the boy. Ryouchi could still hardly believe it though. Sure, many people that Ryouchi had thought dead in his life had appeared again but Vayne was captured by Orochimaru. People don't come back fro Orochimaru. He was certain that Vayne could not have survived. Certain until now at least.
Ryouchi figured that Vayne couldn't remember him. If he had, Vayne would have ran up to him asking for help rather than Ryouchi having to make the effort. He wanted to tell the boy right away that they were kin but he wouldn't. He figured the boy was startled enough for now. He'd lay that on him once he was comfortable and in better health. Ryouchi, as best he could spied around Vayne's body without him noticing. He spotted the cursed seal of heaven, Orochimaru's apprentice curse. As Orochimaru does with all of these curses, he likely panted a small amount of his essence within the boy's chakra. So in a way, Orochimaru was alive inside the boy, though not likely in any significant capacity as say, Sasuke had or as Kabuto was now. Mostly just chakra.
Ryouchi did basic first aid on Vayne and had him sit by him to rest. After, Vayne regained some strength, he'd travel with him to the hospital where he could be treated for his wounds, and to hopefully exorcise the curse from his body.

Vayne sighed now laying his head on his knees as he wrapped the blanket tighter around himself now. He was starving his constantly grumbling stomach proved that. He then looked up at the man after being checked out and smiled weakly. "Thank you for your help," Vayne replied weakly letting a little steam out again. He felt a small headache coming on now and rubbed his forehead a little bit before looking at Ryouchi again. "Forgive me if I ever say anything bad to you. My mind is a little broken and sometimes Azal says things I never would. I'm not insane or anything just a coping measure my mind created. He does the things I never could!" He sighed again letting out a little more steam as he thought about it.
When he had been captured and thrown into one of those arenas of orochimaru's he had wished for death to take him. A part of him had refused to die though a part of him that wished to be stronger and to surpass all before him. That part evolved into Azal Sato a sadistic cold blooded killer who would kill friend and foe alike to get what he wanted. He had tried hard to change him or at least surpress him but while in captivity that had almost been impossible to do. He was surprised Azal hadn't taken over now but he was probably just asleep or plotting his next few moves. He could tell Azal was uncomfortable around the man for some reason. He would have to ask him later if he even felt like talking to him atl all.

As a ninja, Ryouchi had seen several cases of Ninja suffering from psychological conditions due to the trauma of the job. Normally, developing a split personality wasn't the common effect. The cases Ryouchi mostly saw were those paralyzed with fear, or more often than that, ninja would suffer from flashbacks of horrific events and lose account of where they were. Although Ryouchi was unfamiliar with how to deal with someone with another personality, he found comfort that at least Vayne was aware that he had a problem. Because Vayne was aware of the threat, he'd have more control over it than someone who didn't know. Even, if some violent alter ego popped out, Ryouchi was sure he could handle it without hurting his cousin.
He laughed. "Don't worry about that. You've been a perfect gentleman. Help yourself to the rest of my lunch and tea and relax for a bit. We should take you to the hospital for a general check in to how you are but nothing major. Don't feel rushed." Ryouchi said with a smile as he picked up his fishing rod and fished while talking to Vayne.

"I didn't want to impose but thank you," Vayne replied. He grabbed the sushi offered and began stuffing his mouth rather ravenously like a wild animal now. Being in that dungeon he had always had to fight for his meal so it was just a reflex he ate that way now. "Um sure that's fine by me. Azal wont like it to much though!" He did make sure to sip the tea slowly since he wasn't as thirsty as he had been before. He sighed happily now letting more steam out his nose now. Once he had finished he laid back on the ground laying his hands on his stomach now closing his eyes. He could feel himself drifting off to sleep as his headache began to grow now and he knew Azal was going to enjoy his freedom now. He prayed that he didn't mess with Ryouchi at least. A few seconds passed before his eyes opened again revealing the whites of his eyes to be black now as his curse seal spread leaving black fire shaped marks all over his body now. He then glanced at Ryouchi a cold expression on his face now.
"It's rude y'know not telling me your name. Weren't you taught any manners?" Azal scoffed amused with himself now. The brat had finally relented control and he was free for now. "Where the hell are we at?" He sighed he hated asking fo directions or help but he was lost and this guy must know everything he needed to know. He would have to ask the guy everything he needed to before he could formulate a plan of action. As much as he'd rather kill Vayne's cousin he needed him right now.

Ryouchi didn't feel like talking to stupid Azal. He smiled and ignored him for a while. He then paused to respond to Vayne, not Azal. "Oh no problem at all, eat as many sushi as you like. I was hear fishing for a new batch anyways. It must be nice being at the surface again back here at Konoha. Prettiest little place in the whole world in my book!" He said as he began to hum a little song. He felt, a nibble on his line and pulled up. "Oh darn, just missed that one!" he said light heartedly as he re-baited his line and cast out again.
He ignored Azal and waited patiently for Vayne to return again. He wanted to talk to his cousin, not some psychological construct of repressed violence. Ryouchi was out to have a nice peaceful day, and darn it, it was going to happen. "You know Vayne, I make the sushi myself. Good right? Maybe later I can teach you how to make some yourself!"

Azal sighed so the guy was gonna ignore him then causing one of his eyebrows to twitch now. "He can't hear you right now he's out cold. if you'd like to leave a message I may or may not give it to him. Now tell me where the hell we are or I'll make you tell me!" Azal growled the silent treatment got old fast for him. The last guy who had done that to him was left decapitated. No one disrespected him and got away with it for long. He was pretty sure he could kill the guy if he wanted but he was trying to be reasonable by asking for help. He was smart enough to ask questions first and kill later unlike some people he had met and killed. He sighed rubbing his face a few times before smashing his head facefirst into a tree leaving a small crater in his wake.
"Look I said he can't hear you dumb***. He'll be out for a couple hours at least so you'll talk to me or I'll make you!" He crached his neck a few times before crossing his arms against his chest letting a lot of steam out his nostrils now. if he wanted answers he was going to have to force them out if he wouldn't cooperate with him. He doubted he would need curse seal level two to deal with him he had dealt with stronger looking opponents than him. "I don't wanna mess you up but I will if I have to!"

Ryouchi in way, thought this was kinda cute. Like a kid throwing a tantrum to get a toy he wanted. "I could have sworn I just told Vayne we were in Konoha. Didn't get the memo? As for me... my name is Azal I get off beating trees with my face!" He said with a childlike smile and giggled. These cocky tough guys didn't really intimidate him. Those were the types to get flustered easily. He felt a tugging on his line and pulled up a fish. He had a satisfied look on his face. "Looks like I'm right on the money!"
He then took out a kunai knife and began gutting the fish as if to say subliminally to Azal that it would be that easy to kill him if he wanted to. He then ate the guts bloody raw in front of Azal to psyche him out. He then drained the blood back into the water.

"Yeah yeah he got the Konoha part. I wanna know more in detail you twit!" He sighed eyebrow twotching again now. His result was Ryouchi mocked him before taking a fish he had just caught and gutted it sending him an obvious message now. "You kill me that's a laugh. You wouldn't kill your cousin now would you?" He smirked confident he was right. He took a step forward getting right up in Ryouchi's face. He then sighed letting some steam out through his nostrils again and turned his back on him walking away a few feet before stopping again scratching his chin.
He couldn't actually kill him so he'd have to let Vayne in control for now. He'd let him take him to Konoha where'd he'd get the information he wanted. Then he'd make a plan. Azal then smirked and relented his control causing Vayne's body to collapse eyes shut. A few seconds later they opened again normal and Vayne groggily sat up now rubbing his aching face and head. "Ugh what happened? Sorry about that like I said before!" He then stood up and stretched letting out a small yawn now.

Ryouchi would have killed his cousin if he had to. In fact, Ryouchi's fishing wire was a ninja cutting wire. He brought that in case of the need for defense. He could have wrapped Azal up and when Azal tried to break out, his hands would be sliced off. Ryouchi would have then whacked him over the head with the rod which was actually hard steep covered in a bamboo casing. Ryouchi wouldn't want to do this of course, but he would if he had to. Ryouchi knew what it took to survive. He put it out of his mind though.
"Oh don't worry about that A-hole.... I mean, Azal. Despite his bark, he can't bite. A punk who doesn't get that I would be the only way for him to find a place to heal. Your body is too weak at the moment to put up an actual fight at the moment. Well anyways, how about, we head down to the hospital now and fix ya up?" Ryouchi said with a big smile.

Vayne laughed lightly at his comment he knew so little about Azal he didn't expect him to understand him yet. Azal would kill anyone who stood in his way. He could tell how bad he wanted to but he needed help right now so he was only sparing him. He wouldn't let Azal ever do it though he'd fight him with every ounce of his strength now. Azal did know that but he would fight regardless he didn't care if it meant he might die along with Vayne. "Yeah um that'd be nice. I guess I'll be interrogated wont I?" They would want to know everything about what had happened to him. Having been under Orochimaru's influence they would no doubt test his loyalty. That would be kinda hard considering he had Azal to deal with. Knowing about him could they ever truely trust him? He was unstable right now and he doubted they would ever trust him much.

Ryouchi chuckled. "No. Interrogations are for criminals not victims. A couple of questions will probably be asked though just to learn more about yourself and what you went through. Don't worry about it though. If ya need me then I'll be there!" He said as he packed up his gear. and began to walk. He helped Vayne to his feet.
"Can you walk alright?" Ryouchi asked in caring tone. Ryouchi figured, Vayne was good enough to walk, but he wasn't a medical expert. Also, if he was still tired, he put him over his shoulders and carry him. He began to walk on ahead, and stopped to wait and see if Vayne could keep up. He didn't want to overexert the kid. He was starving still, and he was battered about so he had to be careful. It was, his cousin afterall.
