Rhaim watched as the kid who had momentarily sent him soaring through the air was now helping them move through the compound without detection. He wasn't exactly happy about putting his trust into a guy that was a part of the family that they were trying to steal from. However he soon noticed that both Tairu and Tenma were following his orders without any question. In fact it seemed as if Tairu was even thanking the guy for his assistence. He couldn't figure out how someone who had rushed to imprisoning and striking them would be so quick to aide them. Then again his scoial skills weren't exactly on par with a four year old so it was to be expected that he wouldn't understand the ability to simplely talk to someone. He had always simply assumed that a mission would be completed through stealth and fighting.

Since the other two members of their makeshift team had already undertaken the Henge forms, Rhaim followed suit. Though once again his eyes were squinted. The boy sighed as he could feel his flaw and lowered his head hoping that that act would hide his eyes better. Considering the state of his shoulder he felt about as frail as he now looked. He sighed and stared at the ground before him.

"I don't feel well."

He ignored Rhaim's complaint. Well, it was the other's fault for not announcing his presence first...

"Hyuuga." Reminded Haru, suddenly. "Anzu slouches a bit when he walks, to what the common folk will refer to as 'a carefree stance', and does not care much for proper posture unless absolutely necessary in the attention of the Elders." A little frown played on his lips, as the golden-haired boy continued, deep in thought. "Anzu speaks also less formally. It'll be more, as I shall quote: 'how...troublesome' or 'goddamned old geezers on the Council...to the deserts again...' meaning, strictly speaking, mostly incomplete sentences."

He nodded curtly to Tenma. "That is correct. Ryuko also speaks highly formally. And this is to all of you, but only Ryuko and Shirogane really uses honorifics (Hyuuga, Anzu has unfortunately taken up our head of family's habit to refer to our revered Elders as 'old geezers', 'old bats', or something else of insult). In the case we meet a member of the Council..." Haru did a small nod, and made a gesture to form a "zero" with his left hand's fingers.

"I will do that, and this. That means, we all have to bow on the same time." He showed them the clan's formal bow, because the three will play the role of male heirs, Haru showed them the oriental way of courtesy, the hands, the right over the length of the left's arm, and the other underneath - where as Tenma as Ryuko the elegant long sleeves will swoop down with the heavy fabric - and stepping forth, unlike the women's version of bending the knees, bowed very - very - slightly, just barely lowering the upper torso forward.

"To keep matters simple, for the Elders of the clan only, utilize '-sama'. For all other people, I'll try to make names obvious...(do pick up on that!) and '-han' should be fine. Obviously, to me or my sister, our uncle, and also our cousin Hanami (if we run into her)...in such cases familiar, or, familial address is enough. But since Hyuuga isn't the brightest bulb, I grow rather worried, so here they are: "Haru-kun" (that's me, naturally), "Touka-chan", "Zephyr-jiji", and "Hana-chan". And in the worst event, if great-uncle shows up...by Senju Kannon, PLEASE, JUST DON'T TALK. He'll know if something's off..."

...

Haru huffed. The children before him do not have significant chakra, and so...

"All right. Let's get going then...I hope you guys remember all that."

...after he had sprung into the waters as if for dear life, the attendants thankfully left to fetch more bathing things and supplies. Quick as a dart, he snatched the bubble bath bottle and emptied half of the bottle into the pool. Contentment curled his eyelids up in almost-happy 'upside down Us' because, very quickly, with the warm water from the tiger-head shaped faucet, foaming bubbles spread across the pool's surface.

A shinobi must be a shinobi, and make use of the situation.

Wading over to the dragon head, right below the streaming water from its mouth, Zephyr poured the other half of the bottle. The effect was instantaneous: with the fog from the steam throughout the chamber and all that could be seen was foam as far and wide as the eye could see on the surface of the pool, Zephyr, taking a deep breath, ducked underwater as soon as he heard footsteps approach the chamber.

As they approached, at first surprised at seeing no one, they scanned the pool with frenzy. Only an empty bottle floated their way from the other side. One of the maids, the one who held his robe, screamed. She dropped what she was holding, all the while screaming something about him having committed suicide and had drowned himself. While they panicked and began hurrying to and searching the other side of the pool for him, Zephyr hand snuck up to the edge of the pool and snatched the fallen bathrobe. And, protected by the steam and bubbles that had risen with the draft from the open chamber, he snatched the robe and quickly slipping it on, secured the sash with a hasty strong knot, and fled the bathing chambers.

No way in hell was he going through the rest of that...

Half of the robe had touched water and soaked, he shivered, all of the sudden, it was damned cold in the estate. His long, raven hair that framed his face, black from the exposure to water, clung uncomfortably and also to the nape of his neck. Zephyr grumbled, trying to push soap-laced bangs away from his eyes, which stung them and was certainly neither good or wise...

"Yuuko!" Said Zephyr, as he burst into the reception chamber. "Don't ask any questions, look..." He held up a palm, demanding silence. "We've got to-"

And that was when he had turned, as if to make a serious point, but instead met face to face with the golden muscles of a certain statue.

"GYAAAHH!"

Apparently someone had been too busy commiserating in his own woes to realize the statue was there in his forced entry.

"...w-wha-..."

Peeling himself away from the statue's chest, and emerald-golden eyes as wide as saucers in shock, Zephyr's jaw had dropped, and he was rendered speechless, pointing wordlessly at the statue.

For yes-...

"NO! He can't put it here - NOT HERE, of all places!?"

What on earth was his old man thinking!

Having broken out of the momentary stupor, Zephyr had rushed over to the statue, and in vain tried to lift it from its firm post in the ground - was this really made out of gold? - why, it seemed to be heavier than the greatest boulder! And pushing, pushing, and pushing in vain - even with the chakra limiters, his normal physical strength was certainly more than adequate for a statuette! But no no, the statue would not budge from the ground.

Did his family perhaps rig the statue with some sort of seal?

The thought in mind, he toyed with the idea: it was possible. Unfortunate as it was, his family were seal masters. And seal masters tended to love to incorporate seals into every area of daily living.

An idea popped into his head.

"Yokou." He said. "Can you remove the limiters?"

If the statue was stuck there...

Who said only the statue have to come out of the ground?

Saito quietly stared as his sensei once more brushed him to the side. He realized that at this point there were more important matters to attend to, but this was ridiculous.

The boy walked to the statue and raised his arms, reaching for it, exhaling, his jade eyes wide. "Let us hurry with this!", Saito proclaimed. He could hide it-- or something. He wasn't keen on the situation, but realized that this needed to get to the Genin. Zephur currently seemed to be far too excited to realize that it wasn't supposed to be disposed of.

Finally, with a huff, he gave up and sat down, crossing his arms. He'd hit the point of not caring. Why did that Senju have to make the genin exams so hard that the Hokage himself was helping out the kids. He seriously hoped that it wasn't this hard. He shook his head. In addition to this, the man said that only one student was going to become a Genin.

"Aye..", the young Yakedo muttered to himself, simply sitting down, clearing his mind. He just decided to wait this out. It really wasn't any of his buisness, in fact.. he needed to get the Bunshin down....

With an amazingly low attention span, the kid's eyes focused up, pondering. His mind wandered to the bottom of the scroll where the Bunshin No Jutsu was explained. The first part asked for him to get his hand-signs down... easy enough-- right?

His hands moved together... Tiger! The little hands shook, one hand taking charge, the other moving against it, symmetrical. 'Pig..', his mind raced, the hands suddenly moved upside down, closing, symmetrical~ Ox! Pinkies up, the two middle fingers bowing inside the other hand; the dog following right after.... palm above closed hand.

'Not too bad', he managed to perform these in a second or so, however, this wasn't going to happen over and over... this was simply chance.

Again Saito-kun...

"Ox, D--", suddenly he heard a scream, his hands messing up. He looked up, sighing, to see what the commotion was. The boy wasn't exactly sure where said scream came from... oh, Zephyr maybe?

The boy's light emerald eyes focused on the statue... woah~ He didn't realize what it was at first, nor did he care. However, upon further inspection one would notice that the reason his sensei was having a personal melt-down-- was-- well the blunt-- well.. he wasn't sure how to exactly word it.

It was just odd. Naturally he had done nude paintings before and while studying anatomy the boy came to appreciate the humane art, but this was simply odd. He wouldn't go so far to say it was disgusting, simply odd...

However, if his father was in said pose and bearing his clad shining chest, he too would want to dispose of it quickly. Goodness.. and once more he was distracted from his training...

He repeated the seals a few more times-- messing up over and over on the dog. He looked down, raising a brow as his hands repeated the combination over and over. 'Oh...', his voice trailed off. He was sitting cross-legged as the commotion around his escalated. The boy moved his shaking hands to his face, trying to get the nerves to calm down. The dog had to be perfect-- or he was simply wasting his time, but it was proving hard because his hands were feeling a bit numb to positioning right above the back of the hand in the proper manner...

"Mmm..", came a noise from his mouth as he continued to think. He wondered if this would happen during a battle...

Saito is seen fighting some sort of large dragon with 233,463 heads. Saito imagines himself being a rather buff /creature/ with a huge ax. 'Indeed I must defeatith this creatureith!', he screamed as the ground shook. 'Quickly! I must use a jutsu that requires the use of the 'dog' sign!'. So he messes up the jutsu and dies, failing. The End.

O_o came the expression. Wow... fatigue really got to him....

He wished he would take an electric shock every time his mind wandered off like that...

Saito's eyes simply moved back to his hands as he held his tiger sign...
