Welcome to Gaia! ::

"erm... Ms. Otogawa? what exactly are we to do here?, we were uninformed about this mission"

Kugen suppressed a laugh as Ms. Otogawa handed Daichi a pair of pink overalls and gloves. "That's definitely your color." He muttered to Daichi with a smirk, hoping that Ms. Otogawa didn't hear him.

"You'll be pruning the nettles, here's your gear." The old woman said as she handed Kugen a matching suit, sheers and a plastic bag.

"Be careful not to cut to much off, any dead plants are comeing out of your pay." She added with a sour look.

"An you young lady will be watering and fertalizing the orchird area." She said, handing Ukya a vomit green set of coveralls and a shovel.

"The manure is by the wall next to the house." She said then locked the storage unit back up.

"Alright everyone, you may have seperate assingments but try to help eachother out if you can. Now get to work, dismissed." Arashi said, sending them off to do there assinged tasks with a sigh. It was already rather warm which ment it would probably be blazeing hot by noon. It was the unfortunate sort of unseasonable weather she had been hopeing wouldn't happen.

Kugen sent a nasty look in Daichi's direction before wandering off to his own assignment, luckily out of Ms. Otogawa's line of sight. He sighed and tossed the pink coveralls to the side...as if...He readily glared at the nettles and sat down on the ground next to the patch. He measured up their size and extended his hand toward the plants. Blades of air rose up around the plants and cleanly cut them down to size in one swift movement. He smiled, relishing how easy this would be. He looked around himself and frowned, noticing the vast amounts of pruning that was still left and realizing that it may take a bit longer than he had first hoped...

Arashi remained inside the green house for a moment, watching her students go with a slight frown. Behind her Ms. Otogawa opened a locked storage cabinet and removed a vial and needle.

"Your stupid to do this to yourself." The old woman grumbled.


"My immunities have come in handy more then once." Arashi said but didn't offer any other defense as she took the now full syeringe. She tied a pice of rubber tube around her arm with practiced ease and gave herself the shot. She didn't trust the old woman not to pretend to screw up and stick her with it a bunch of times.

"I ment choosing losers like them on perpouse. They'll never learn and you'll get yourself killed trying to protect them." The old woman replied sourly.

"Your orchids look a little under the weather this year." She said, changing the subject because she didn't care to piss off the woman resposible for giving her posion injections. No one would even blink if she 'accidentally' gave Arashi the wrong one. Not that Ms.Otogawa would kill her, she'd just leave her hospital ridden for a month and unable to controll her bodily functions.

Kugen was lying on his back upside down by now. He would vaguely measure the distance before lazily trimming the nettles with a flick of his wrist...he sighed when he noticed that it probably wasn't smart to waste his chakra on something so pointless, but in the end, his extreme laziness won and he sighed as he trimmed the next row.

Kugen sat up abruptly, staring at Ms. Otogawa as if she had five heads. "Uhhh...pruning..?" He asked and blinked dazedly, not sure how to react to the woman's outburst.

"That using sheers would require too much effort and have no significance in training." He said, shrugging off the fact that his pay was in severe jeopardy or possibly nonexistent anymore. If she wanted the nettles pruned properly, she shouldn't have called in a fourteen-year-old ninja to do it for her...it just didn't make much sense to him...but then again, he was lazier than most...
