Midnight walk in the forest

Mana walked in the forest while looking around at the trees. She wasnt wearing her military outfit, but a blue and white kimono. She hid her hands in her sleeves while walking towards a lake. She wasnt familiar with the area, but an old lady told here about the lake. She arrived at the lake and looked up at the sky. The moon was bright white, making the white on her kimono glow a bit. Mana walked up to the rock at the edge of the lake and sat down on it. She looked around a bit, at the water, the grass, trees, moon, everything. She felt comfortable when the wind blew trough her hair. She looked up at the moon again and closed her eyes as a tear rolled down her face. All of the sudden, she pulled her knees up to her chest, wrapped her arms around her knees and started crying.

Ushsi was laying in a tree that touched the water on the lake. She wasnt wearing her normal, but she was wearing a pair of jeans with a low cut black fighting kimono. Her form was covered by the tree's leaves but her hand clumsly played with the water, creating ripples. As she heard a girl near the lake, she quickly pulled her hand back and yawned slightly. Watching she knew who the girl was. Mana Shinmen. A slight growl escaped her lips before she noticed the girl was crying. She pulled her black hair back and slid out of the tree and walked over to the girl, sitting down next to her. "Hello" a chimey whisper escaped her pink lips and she looked at the girl.

Mana heard a voice and quickly wipped off her tears. She waited a bit until she turned her head. "Hey. What are you doing out here this late?" She asked with sadness in her voice. She tried to hide the fact that she was crying, but wasnt very good at it. "I saw you at school, didnt I?" She pulled a bit of hair out of here eyes and noticed that the girl looked very diffrent without her school uniform.

Striker was sitting under a tree located by the lake, leaning on his elbow on his right arm and plucking grass with his free hands. The light wind blowed across his face causing his hair to do a mating dance with the wind. He had heard the cries of the girl but knew better than to ask questions. He turned his head to face her when he heard the other voice. Striker had no idea who these girls were but knew that one was in the military as was he. Unlike her he had his rank patches on but hid them when he could. like now for instance. When he saw the stretched out ripples make it his way he lifted his form off of the ground and moved it to the edge of the lake. He put his "toys" (guns) down on the ground and removed his shirt. In the blink of an eye he had dove into the lake. Luckily he had been sitting by a deeper area then a shallow one. Striker was really good at diving getting it from school practice. when he surfaced he was more towrds the middle of the lake and he just looked at the girls. He wanted to know why the girl was crying but at the same time didn't really care. That was striker for you. Wants to know but doesn't really care. If he knew the girl then maybe he would have but he didn't.
