Theme Song: A Theme of Peace...he wouldn't have noticed the slightest wince, because years had long harshened her eyes to the world. It was a foreign feeling, slightly constricting around her chest, as if a serpent wrapping its thin but deadly body around her small bosom or...no. That was not quite how it was, right? She had strong suspicions if it had not been Rokugi to say this...any other would've made her blood boil: so expectant, so used to, she had learned to distrust, distrust, distrust, and to weight every word, seeking mockery, hatred, in either veiled pretty words, or as it was for her, not even that.
The villagers could show their hatred as much as they wanted, and, she found that she didn't care.
"Gan...?" She repeated, her voice soft. Her pale iridescent eyes looked more distant, as she recalled a text from the Uchiha library. One that had caught her interest, after she moved in upon joining the Academy...because she had a sudden urge to really want to know what exactly about the damned eyes made the 'family' so proud.
"Gan, Hiragana for 'eyes'...of the 'three great Doujutsu families'...Rikudo Sennin's own line...?" There was a soft pause, as she weighed the importance of this new piece of knowledge. It was interesting, needless to say...Rikudo's descendants was thought to be lost to time, a lineage as blurry in the pages of history to her as the Uchiha line was. She hesitated, as he waited: it was proper to introduce oneself in turn.
But she didn't want to.
Not for this boy to judge her by a name that did not even belong to her really. Her eyes met his evenly - she noticing that his was a strange color that was golden, no...a red-gold, almost orange - but when the gentle smile slowly tugged at his mouth, in turn, then, a small smile crossed her own lips.
"Haruka." She said. "I'm Haruka-..."
...of no one's.
No, that was not quite right, was it...?
"...of Shimagakure no Sato."
But his words were...almost...warm? Well, then...if he was so sure...
Nothing to lose but all to gain.
She contemplated his explanation of the balance between mind and body, and for a moment, would almost - could almost - laugh aloud. Oh, the irony, how this boy guessed...she wasn't certain, but there was definitely something wrong with her beloved family's heads. Chakra was a balance of mind and body, but the Uchiha clan had always leaned very strongly to the energies of the mind...almost too strongly, even.
Learn to train the energies of the body?
To harness absolute control?
But it was an interesting thought. She moved her fingers. All right then, she'll try it.

Theme Song: A Theme of PeaceAnd her hands had found the position, the seal of the ram formed proudly and cleanly, not a tangled mess. She might have been still practicing, but there was no doubt that this child greatly valued perfection, however ironic it was in truth. The careful meticulousness with which she formed the seal, yet the gradually increasing speed with which she formed them - deadly accuracy - would've made those watching wonder if this truly was the child's first time practicing seal formation speed.
But, there was also without a doubt, that Haruka used all her efforts too. All her energies she conentrated, for such rare moments and at such lengths so calm, and the child was so deeply in concentration, but she took Rokugi's word too, and did her best not to let her mind overthink, but for her slim, pale fingers, to find their own way too. Gradually, slowly, she learned to correct mistakes (and of course she made them too, but she would stop, think, and attempt to fix the seal or otherwise remake it wholly).
It would all pay off, when learning the Jutsu arts.

Rokugis meditation was cut short at the mention of some words, a name, a person. Rikudo Sennin, the Founder of what was once his clan. The girl knew his name, something that most people didnt even care to know. His eyes opened in a flash but then turned towards the girl slowly trying to examine every inch of her. " How do you know of his name? Do you know anything about my Doujutsu? or about Doujutsus at all?" Once again Rokugi's ancestors had spoken to him. first in his dream of the temple in the far north, then the strange feeling of coming to this place and now the encounter with somone who knew about his clan. The wind blew and Rokugi could swear he heard voices of the spirits watching over him and guiding him somewhere, all was not lost. " Ive been searching for some answers If you could help me. Ive made a lot of mistakes in my life, I think i waited too long to pursue my real self but I learned. Thats what im doing and thats what you are doing right now. I believe my ancestors help me meet you for a reason" His stare was one begging for answers but nota mean one. It was a gentle face and a more thah gentle heart.
+1 to Haruka's next roll
Daily meditation
As part of his Buddhist beliefs Rokugi is supposed to meditate into the being he is at the start of his day and later on, once the day is over, meditate on who has he become after the day is done. In order to do so he must block all exterior influence and focus on his self as a being. That way trying to achieve perfection as a human being.
1d20 +(8 ) Focus = 24
DC: 10 + (8 )Focus 18

Know that he knew someone with an idea of what his clan was Rokugi felt self assured of his position. He was going in the right direction for now and had some help long the way.Speaking of help there was something he was forgetting. Just like that a small wind blew on his face and the smell of smoked wood came over his nose as to alert him. " Oh no i had totally forgotten" He looked up to the sky to check the time of day and by the sun's position he confirmed his guess. The people where supposed to gather at the housing district to help rebuild the burned down buildings and consumed in his meditation the young boy had forgotten. " Haruka, I know you seem to feel rejected by the others as well as I but theres no reason for us to not be helpful. I saw a boy who rejected chose that path of lonelyness and only brought hurt to others for no reason at all. I ask of you. Would you come to help me give a hand at the housing district? You dont have to come if you dont feel like it, ill come back either way to help you on your training after im done, just think about it ok? Ill be there waiting" He got up from his spot in the floor and placed a hand on Haruka's shoulder before turning around. He knew the girl didnt feel right about the others in the village for some reason but if he could help it, he wouldnt let her become like that Kazuma boy.
Convincing Haruka to come help

Theme Song: A Theme of PeaceA soft breeze passed, gently suspending for a long moment ghostly strands of flame-red hair as it played with crimson locks: for a long moment granting the girl the ethereal image of a forest nymph, or perhaps a fledgling goddess surely. But her body stiffened, however, as Rokugi questioned her. It took all self-effort for the child to stifle the gasp that had threatened to escape soft lips - and all discipline to resist not looking away from the other boy's intently peering gaze.
Well...what was she supposed to say...? Of things that were better left alone.
And doujutsu? Ha. She would make do, that mattered little to her...after all, she was only half Uchiha.
Talk.
But to this boy...to this boy, clearly, it was...important.
Just...say something.
But nothing left her lips, and she held her silence.
A pensive look crossed her face, as Rokugi got up and took to his leave.
But she could not ignore his words.
Moisture...on her cheek...?
She closed her eyes.
He left, and when he was out of earshot (or so she believed), she opened her eyes again. Crystalline droplets of cool liquid had gathered - ironically warm - filling stunningly iridescent eyes, before the warmth spilled onto her cheeks.
"What..." She whispered, to herself.
Oh, how foolish. A fated meeting? It made Haruka want to laugh, to scorn the very idea. However...however...another part, if just a tiny bit...a small spark of flame in the cold ambers of the hearth...
A small spark wanted to believe.
Lie.
...even if it's just a little longer.
Lie.
Just keep lying...
...a little longer.

Theme Song: A Theme of PeaceShe watched, as the boy's figure retreated down the forest path - back to the village - and slowly grew smaller and smaller. In those moments, many thoughts went through her mind: the first voice, the familiar coldly cruel voice of a child abandoned and hated by the world, condescended the very idea of being extended to by that hated hand "kindness". It was ridiculous a notion...hadn't she always been all right alone, and managed just fine...?
What would change now?
But yet still, she found herself unable to concentrate, and any intent to ignore the boy-...
Back there, he had called to her first.
Just like that strange Ashi girl, in this forest, the very previous night.
She hesitated, her eyes never leaving the boy's retreating back, and then... Her gaze cast down to her hands.
Children born from rape were an abomination.
Her beloved family had never failed to remind her that.
However...
Her lips parted.
"Don't..."
However-...
And perhaps, what possessed her to sit next to Rokugi overtook her here too. She stood up, her sandal-ed feet barely making any noise on the forest ground, and hurried after him. The unsaid words were left to the wind, unheard, but at the moment, there was no need for words.
For even the most eloquent of words would fail to accurately describe all that was wondrously beautiful at that moment.
