"I should have stopped at that cave a few miles back and rested...The desert during the day is too unforgiving...even if you wear this depressingly neutral colored cloak. The village should be in my sights soon so i'll get some food and rethink my plan," the male mused to himself as he walked toward the North. He had just finished the last of his water a half mile back. Ibari had just dodged another cell of ninja trying to find him no doubt they had came from the village he had fled so long ago. With that in mind he figured getting to Suna would no doubt be in haste even if he couldn't gain asylum he would simply stop for provisions and keep going. There had been startling rumors surrounding the desert village. That it was overran by Missing Ninja and declared a haven for them. If that was the case then since the disappearance of the prior Kazekage and the joint exams between Konoha and Suna...things had gotten worse. On the same hand however this could also be something that could help him in his future plans. When it comes to this village however he had been going into the dark, an issue he might just need to look into.

Then again this could have played well into his plans and subsequently his aid in dodging Konoha if they were not going to give up pursuing him. If the village took him in as a missing ninja then why would they give him up? That was the chain of thoughts though his trust in people had been...flimsy at best. What seemed like hours passed as he stopped near the gates of the village, waiting for a small quell in the sandstorm that was brewing as he walked to subside. He hadn't wanted to try and slip in under the guise of the storm, that would be stupid and foolish. As it slowly died down the sight of crimson upon its walls caused him to blink for a moment before removing his goggles to see if he had been seeing right. The blood that had been stained into the sands caused him to whistle lowly to himself," So the rumors might have been true. This might be either good or bad for me but what else do I have.. Let's see if this goes as planned...hopefully it does. I hate wandering," tapping his chin he would continue to move forward, stopping 5 meters in front of the gate before waiting to see if anyone was there. Of course he would try to peruse the area with his chakra senses, trying to find anybody he could that was near. Whether or not someone had came to see him, Ibari would of course wait until he was addressed or talked to. With the current look of the village it seemed like whatever happened to the village was recent, but the blood looked like it was dried already....And that was indeed a lot of blood.

He looked around for the voice for a moment before he saw the person and walked closer to him, not too close so that he did not cause any reason to attack and also because he was a foreign ninja in their lands. Since he had only a single bag he would have dropped it on his left and nod to the ninja at the gate," Name? Ibari. I don't actually have a surname so its kinda hard to give that out, but my reason for being here? I seek asylum, rest and a pursuit of knowledge and power. I hear this is a haven for missing ninja and wayward souls so I figured why not try my luck here," he didn't give any reason to set off any alarms for he was being quite honest with his answer though many might have thought he had been lying. Luckily for him, Ibari wasn't and that should have made things a lot easier.

After the man had told him where to find the leader of the village, Ibari gave a small nod and thanked the male as he headed into the village gates. Finding the hospital would probably be the easiest and his best bet so he would begin to head there. For some reason he felt as if this would either go good or bad, only time would tell.
