Sayuri meditated a bit before being dried off. The meditation helps her clear her mind of things, not to mention it helps her with her abilities.

Taki looking around, seeing everyone meditating. "Why is everyone so intent on building mental strength? Oh right, chakra." Taki sighed and finally allowed her ball of water to seep into the ground. Soon, she joined Mizu, Tsuki-sensei, Kai, and Sayuri in meditation.

Sayuri opened her eyes after meditating for a while. She was surprised that everyone in her squad was meditating as well.
((Yeah...writer's block ><))

Kai opened his eyes, glancing over at the twins, smirking after noticing they were asleep. Tsuki-sensei noticed that too.
"Training's over for today then," she said, giggling, "It'll be dark soon, the sun's setting."
"Taki," Kai nudged the sleeping figure. Taki awoke immediately.
"Mizu. Mizu. MIzu. MiZU. MIZU. MIZU!" Taki attempted to awake her sister, nudging her harder each time. Mizu finally awoke at the last push. The umi twins and Kai returned to the compound, and Tsuki-sensei told them to be there at 7:30 the next morning for their next mission, before poofing off to wherever jonin poof off to.

Sayuri went inside the compound. Scracthing her head as she went inside, until she heard a faint sound that sounded like an ocarina.
"Hey guys, do you hear that?" she said, stopping to hear.

"Your mom? And no, i don't mean that as in the response to an insult like when people say your face or your mom, does that sound like your mother's playing?" Kai asked.
Mizu gasped. "Kai has a sense of humor?" Taki just giggled.
((350th post!!!!))

((Woot!))
Sayuri looked again. "It does. I recognize that tune."
She followed the sound of the instrument, which became louder as she went to the back.

Taki began to follow, but was held back by Mizu. "I think they need some...mother-daughter bonding time, you know? I mean..what at least 5 years without seeing her mom...let's go into the garden and wait."
Mizu, Taki, and Kai sat on the marble bench of the up-to-now non-existent garden of the Umi compound. Taki was swinging her legs and humming slightly, and Mizu just took in all the sights and smells of the garden, beautiful flowers, and star-filled sky, and fireflies flitting about. Kai stared up into the sky.

Sayuri finally made it to the back porch of the compound where her mother was. She was playing her ocarina, as she usually does at night. The tune, Sayuri recognized well. When she stopped for a moment, she turned to her child and smiled. Sayuri can't help but to hug her long-lost mother. "Sayuri, my child. You have changed a bit." she said softly "I've been here, mother. The Umi's took me here. It was a surprise to see some of the other members here," said Sayuri "It's been so lonely without everyone here, till recently." Sayuri's mother nodded, looking up at the night sky. "As a kunoichi, you face many challenges in life. You go on missions, you protect your home and your family. I, myself was a little scared back then. But Sayuri, I'm glad to see that you're safe." Sayuri laid her head on her mother's shoulder as she continued playing her tune. She continued to play until someone called her. "Ayame-sama, time to call it a day." he said, then he walked off. Ayame got up from her spot, and smiled at Sayuri. "Don't stay up too late, okay my little flower?" she said "Okay, mother." said Sayuri. When she left, Sayuri continued to look at the stars. ((Disclamer: I do not own the tune! Obviously!))

Taki poked Kai. "Why do you stare at the sky so much?"
"It reminds me of something...rather, someone...also, I think of stars in a different way than you probably do." Kai explained, his voice softer than usual.
"I see...oh look, there's Gemini. Mizu and I are both Gemini." Taki pointed out. ((Yes, i do realize this is a western zodiac that that constellation wouldn't be in the western hemisphere where...well, ninja...but kirigakure's special, in some parallel universe. Ok? ok.))
Kai chuckled. "Ironic."
"Did you just...chuckle?" Taki paused a moment. "Oh, right. It's night."

Sayuri walked to the garden where the others were after her mother left. The flowers in the garden and the night sky welcomed her greatly. Seeing her squad, she walked over.
"What are you guys talking about?" she asked when she came close to them

"Nothing...really. Doing some stargazing," Taki giggled, looking back up at the stars twinkling down on her.
Mizu smiled, and turned her head upwards to look at the moon. It was full, and she felt what the Umi clan called their inner ocean come to life. Mizu began to glow golden, then ended in the shape of a glowing golden fox. Taki looked over at Mizu, then up at the sky. She began to glow silver, then became a silver wolf.
"Oh? Full moon tonight?" Kai looked up at the sky, not seeming the least bit worried. "They can still think like themselves, It's a Umi clan thing, once the look at a full moon they turn into a certian animal, not like werewolves as they still think the same and can talk."

"Really? How unique!" Sayuri said, looking at the stars. "They say at the night of a full moon, one acts differently that they already do. I wonder if that's true. I mean I've been hearing that a whole lot now."

We gain psychic powers for a night too. Taki and Mizu thought into Sayuri's head. Taki's eyes glowed an azure color, Mizu's red.
"Vision time...they have one every month that will come true in the next month. Taki's is always a positive happening, and Mizu's always a negative one. I remember Taki's vision last month, they'd meet a new friend. Mizu's was that a threat would happen involving her as head." Kai explained. "They don't often share them though. Last month was an exception because Mizu was really freaking out, and Taki just gave hers to cheer Mizu up."

"Wow, psychic powers as well huh?" Sayuri said softly. "That's a change." She sat down on the bench, still admiring the stars.
