"Um, I don't think he's done anything bad. I think this other guy needs his help but he couldn't find him. But if we make Hiei mad then I heard he can get violent." Hotaru replied. Hopefully, they wouldn't have to fight him.

"Then don't get him mad, and if someone upsets him, you had better run away somewhere safe, understand?" So he was needed by someone else less capable of finding him on their own. At least he was less likely to put up a resistance in Keno's head. There was no telling for sure how true that was though. Some people just liked to get mad and stay that way.

Hotaru nodded. "Well, my friends Neji and Tema-chan are coming and they are really stong ninja. They probably won't let us genin fight the guy if they think he's too strong." She replied and shrugged. "Oh! I'm started to learn about chakra and stuff so I can do jutsu."

Finally he paused, completely confused at what it was she just said.
"You only just learned about chakra? Under whose authority did you become a genin?" He didn't mean to insult the child, but she didn't even know the fundamental building block of the shinobi before she was able to be promoted. Worse still, she hadn't even perfected throwing until after her graduation. All of a sudden, the village seemed like the worst possible place for a ninja to train.
When he was a student, there was no way in hell he'd end up having received any mission without first learning how to hit a target, defend himself, and mold chakra and yet this six year old...
It was too mind boggling for him to keep thinking about it, but the look of sheer confusion lingered on his face as he eyed her with furious concern for her well being.

"The hokage." Hotaru replied then put her hands behind her head. Hotaru never could figure out who she was put into the genin rank so quickly. She was no where near qualified in truth.

"What the hell was she thinking..."
For a moment he lay there, his back against the tiles, thinking. His mind needed a moment to make sense of all of this, but of course nothing came of this and he had to accept the fact that it did not and would not make any sense whatsoever. Of course that sort of thing usually only pissed him off more.
"What are you doing to catch up to the others? You can't wait to be taught anymore. You need to practice harder and study more than everyone else in your rank, and that's just to catch up. It won't be any easier once you know what you're doing." There was a serious glare of malcontent coming from him, but there was nothing else he could really do about it and he wasn't upset with her anyway. Still though, for her to be so carefree was not a good thing at this stage and passive education was an option she gave up when she agreed to the promotion.

Hotaru blinked, wondering if Keno was upset with her or something. "Um, I was going to start by reading about what I need to know at the library." She replied. That was all she could really think of. If she learned the basics then she could build off that.

"Why haven't you started yet?" Slowly, he rocked to and fro on his back until he gained enough momentum to roll to his feet. Standing up a bit stiffly, he shook his limbs loose and picked the tiny girl up, cradled in his arms. There was a still a hint of irritation, but he was clearly not dwelling on it too much.
"We're going to the library now and we're not leaving until you know everything you need to know about chakra. Do they have a library in the village?" If not, he'd have to look elsewhere, and he already had a good idea for a plan B, but he wasn't so sure the mage would have books on such things.

"Well I promised Maru-kun's mom that I wouldn't go by myself and I haven't found anyone to go with me. I don't know where the library is." Hotaru replied as he picked her up.

"Well we're gonna look for it and you're gonna study." Surely the academy had a library. How could it not? On the off chance that he was wrong, an instructor there would know where to find it so either way that was their first destination.
Carrying the kid, he wandered into the hallway, through the main floor, and out the doors. If for some odd reason there was not a single library in the village, he'd have to return and find Epithany to see if she happened to know of such books in her own library. There was a chance she did. So much for training.

::Unks entered the arena slowly feeling the the remaining lingure of Keno's energy and a much smaller on. He saw that Keno left his hat, shirt, and scarf behind. He stepped onto the ring and moved torwards Keno's stuff and bent down to move it off the ring so he wouldn't ruin them.
As he moved the clothing he saw Keno's smirk and a slight smirk came to his lips as he picked it up. He looked around to see if anyone was around before he reached behind his neck holding the scarf and began to tie it around his neck.
He stood up straight a smile on his face as he placed his left hand on his new swords handle and walked to the center of the ring that goofy smile still on his face. He got into a stance still holding the handle::
"Wow this scarf is really comfortable. Well time to start training."

He watched from the side, his arms crossed and what looked like eyes never glancing away...

::Unks felt a new energy in the Arena. It was one he rarely felt and almost forgot who it belonged too, but after a moment realized it was Tama's. His ice blue eyes scanned the arena quickly before his right foot slide on the stone of the ring.
As his foot slide forward he made a quick upwards slash with the blade and then continued to make the blade flow in a downward slash, and did another upwards slash. As the balde went into another slash he sheathed it and did a back upwards strike with his right leg.
As his leg touched down the blade was no longer in it's sheath but in Unks' hand as he held the hand to the blade was behind him and he crouched down his left hand with his thumb, pointer, and middle finger up, and his ring and pinky down, over his left knee. He began to bob back and forth slightly::
