Welcome to Gaia! ::

"Huh?" Haruko turned to look behind her and smiled, "Good evening Kyoma-chan, so how was you're nap? I hope it went well. By the way, don't worry, you didn't miss much except for Akio-san's and Narkosa-san's fight."

Seeing that the two ninja were done their fight, Haruko excused herself form the others and walked towards them. She knelt down between the two and smile. "Amazing fight back there you two. It was a very interesting fight to watch. Chakra repleshing pills? You both seem to really need it." Haruko reached into her medical pouch and pulled out two round chocolate looking pills and offered it to them.

Entering into the training ground, Death noticed the multitude of genin. He also noticed someone he couldn't recognize. This person obviously wasn't a threat since he had befriended the others, but his intentions were still unknown. Death decided it would just be best to confront him straight forward. "I have arrived!" Yelling, Death tried to get everyone's attention.

Kyoma jumped up on her feet as she heard the familiar voice of Death. "Death-sensei! You took forever!" She laughed waving at him. She then looked to Kenji who had a confused look on his face as he watched Death announce his arrival. She dragged him up with her and then let him go, pointing to him with her thumb, "This is Kenji-san! He's new here, and has been hanging with me and Haru-chan. We told him that if he stuck with us, he could meet you. He's been wanting to talk to you ever since we first mentioned you."

Haruko looked up when she heard Death's voice and smiled, "About time Death-sensei. Glad you found us okay." From behind Death, Haruko noticed Rei flying close behind and her smile widened, "Haruko-sama!~ I've successfully brought Death-sensei here. Are you pround?" Rei cried out happily as he flew past the others towards Haruko. Haruko stood up and raised up her index finger for Rei to perch himself on. Once Rei landed on her finger, she pulled her hand in and began rubbing his fur with her other hand. "Good job Rei, I'll give you something special once we get home okay?" She felt Rei nudge against her hand happily and she smiled.

She looked up to see Kenji and Kyoma talking with Death, Haruko decided to walk over to them. "You know Death-sensei, Kenji-san really is skilled and will be a fine addition to our village. Both Kyoma-chan and I can vouch for him. I've even faced him in a fight, he's an honorable opponent with alot of skills. So, can he stay Death-sensei?"

"Hi Kyoma! Sorry, I got held up," he apologized. As Death neared closer to Kenji and heard him introduce himself, Death was confused. He looked this boy up and down before responding, "You may have the same name as that shorty, but you're definitely not the same person. I'll have to call you Nice Kenji, and of course you can stay!" Death grinned wide and gave a friendly smack to Kenji's shoulder. It was much harder than necessary and would probably give him a bit a a shock along with a taste of Death's personality.

Death stood smiling for a while, he had no idea what he was doing anymore. He had found Kyoma... and then what? What am I doing here again? Death wondered hopelessly. Umm... maybe we were going to fight. This was the best idea that had floated into Death's brain at the time, so he went with it. "Haruko, speaking of fights, I'm in the mood for a nice brawl. What do you all think?" Death addressed the whole group, especially (Nice) Kenji. Haruko had said he was worthy, but Death wanted to fight him and find out for himself.

Kyoma gave Death a quizzical look before asking her question. "Do you mean all of us, or just one of us?" She felt her heart jump at the thought of fighting her sensei. I hadn't fought as a team before, especially against Death-sensei. She then smiled, looking to Kenji and waiting for his reply to Haruko's question.
