((hmph, you and your grapple skills razz ))
Huh? Eri looked vividly confused as her tiny hiding place had been so expertly plucked from her arms. She blinked several times before realizing what had happened, frozen in the same position. She looked up at Hana first, then smiled nervously, straightening her posture while waving her hand over her head to curl a few strands of her hair around her fingers while she turned her back to the two. She crouched down and played with her hair with her right hand and grazed the fingers of her left hand across the ground while she thought.
"Well that was unexpected, now what am I supposed to do? I probably should have tried a more subtle approach. Or maybe something more direct. But now this strange one is here." The only thing strange about the situation was the fact that, even with her back turned, Eri was speaking in a tone that could easily be heard by the other two girls.
"OK!" Eri flicked her fingers at the buckles on the straps of the backpack still containing all her personal belongings. Once she slipped her arms free of the straps, she turned around and pulled at the string holding the pack closed, immediately fishing through it. Once she found what she wanted, she stood up, holding a toy tiger in both hands, its 'claws' propped up by her fingers and her arms stretched out at Tanu like the creature was actually pouncing at her.
"That wasn't nice, you'll make Hero-chan angry." From Tanu's perspective, Eri's face was once again hidden, but the enchantress slowly lowered the tiger so that just her eyes were visible to the Kun'kumo.
"I was here first." The high pitch of Eri's voice was gone now, replaced with a low growl as if taking out the tiger had some affect on her personality.

Hanabira blinked a few times, not knowing why the girl in front of her had become bashful with red blushing cheecks. The gesture made Hanabira feel a little more comfortable talking to a stranger, which allowed her to open the door just a little wider and step out into the afternoon sun just a bit. She still kept most of her body behind the door though. The girl was rather cute and acted younger than Hanabira as well, which made the Yamanaka see her in a different light as she began to introduce herself. "Good afternoon," Hanabira said shyly bowing her head to the girl and then the teddy bear. "I'm Hanabira..." she said softly just before the girl began dishing out her sad story. "O-oh," Hanabira said, not really sure what to do with a weeping person, since she had always been the one crying and someone else was their to comfort her. The girl was at a lost of words for a moment. Then her mind drifted to Shinobu. 'This is how Shin feels when I cry. I want to help her, but I don't know what to say,' Hanabira thought to herself as her olive eyes drifted t the floor.
As they did, they shot right back up the moment a crude 'HEY' sounded out. Hanabira panicked at the sight of Tanu and slammed her door shut right in front of Eri's face. With her back against the door, Hanabira squeezed her eyes shut, feeling rotten that she had left Eri to the wolf. However, she didn't hear arguing or yelling at first. Instead, she heard Eri talking... to herself? Hanabira peered out the window to see Eri holding a tiger out at Tanu and began to feel nervous. Limping over to a pre-arranged bouquet of flowers that Kane had most likely worked on, Hanabira gimped back to the door and opened it. "Little Girl," Hanabira spoke softly, knowing that the girl would be in a world of hurt soon if she didn't leave now. The taunting with the tiger was more than likely to tick the Kun 'Kumo bully off... "Here," she said softly holding out a bouquet of Shimagakure grasses and bright purple orchids that had been grown inside the house during the winter. "Take these," Hanabira said, hoping the girl would take them and go before things got too out of hand.

Kazuma followed a short distance behind Tanu, he wasn't really sure why he'd even followed her. Boredom maybe? But really it boiled down to the fact that his family was all he had even if he didn't get along with his cousin. Tanu had cooled down a bit, or atleast he thought and anything was better than hanging around on his own. Even though he still wasn't sure why Tanu wanted to see Hanabira, personally he didn't think much of her. It didn't take much to remember back to the time they both got in trouble for stealing juice for Tomoko, She had cried all the way through Ichi's punishment and then... Well he couldn't really remember what happend after... Or the next day for that matter. " That was some baaaaad juice" He shook his head and the thoughts away. Who knew what she was like now? It had been a long time since he'd seen Hanabira. Or more likely Tanu had made her cry... Her sudden bullying of the girl with the toy pretty much confirmed that, so that was why she was here then? To harass someone else to make herself feel better. " Whatever..." He muttered to himself as he stood to the side, not getting involved.

"Hana!" Tanu yelled out as the door slammed shut just as Tanu had expected. "Ugh!" Tanu groaned in anger. She wanted to kick at the door and bang on it, but she kept her anger in check and just gritted her teeth while taking a deep breath. As she did, she heard the little blond twit in front of her talking. Tilting her head and raising an eyebrow, Tanu looked at the strange actions and weird speech the girl was giving herself. "What?" Tanu said outloud in utter puzzlement as the girl began digging in her back pack to bring out a second stuffed toy. The little girl used it like a puppet to speak to Tanu, which made Tanu's face just turn read with anger. The Kun 'Kumo was pulling her fist back to punch into the stuffed tiger and have it follow straight through to the little girl's face, but the action was stopped as Hanabira limped out of her house. Slowly... very slowly... Tanu put down her fist as the Yamanaka spoke to this annoying little brat in front of her. As Tanu opened her mouth to say something to the freckled faced ninny, she felt her jaw pop. The Kun 'Kumo had been clenching her jaw so tightly all this time while gritting her teeth that she had locked in place. Taking her once balled up fist and rubbing her jaw, Tanu gave the blond an opportunity to take the flowers and leave before she began speaking. "Yamanaka," Tanu started with a firm voice, which the girl was actually attempting to sound soft and nice! "I'm very sorry for the way I acted in the forest. Ugh!" Tanu started, coughing at the end as she grew extremely nervous and very out of place as she did this. "Please forgive me, and continue teaching me the academy jutsus... and let my cousin join in?" she asked the Yamanaka as she turned aside to point out Kazuma who had just come up to the group. Tanu wanted the two of them to learn the techniques the others had and to become even stronger then those that insulted their clan and hit them with sticks! The girl wouldn't explain her reasons behind learning these techniques, but she would try to avoid any reason besides one that would be obvious; graduate the academy.
Please! Intimidate Tanu? Ha! 1d20 + Sense (2) = 20

((Eri hasn't told anyone her name yet, she introduces herself to everyone as Princess, since it's her first day no one should know her name.))
"Ugh..." Eri's arms limply lowered to her sides, her tiger dangling from her right hand. This girl had withstood her tiger leer attack? Definitely a formidable opponent. She was about to prepare another attack, going through the back of her mind to pick out her next toy, but she immediately caught a pleasant scent before any other thought went through her. She started to reach her free hand for the bouquet timidly, turning her head away as if ashamed to be seen, although she was actually a little embarrassed that her face wasn't covered in the tears she had portrayed earlier.
"Well..." Soon reaching both of her arms out, she took the bouquet in both her arms and held it like a baby, taking a deeper sample of their fragrance.
"Thank you very much Hana-sama." Turning her attention to Hana with a bright smile, she decided to show the girl the utmost respect. In such a situation, this girl wasn't the type she needed nor wanted as a rival. Instead, maybe she could use her... or even better, if she could mimic her, how cute would it be if they walked around like twins? Eri nearly giggled over the idea, scrunching her cheeks in a squirrelly manor, making a brief curtsy before placing the flowers on her backpack. Rearranging the contents, she placed the flowers on top and pulled the straps back over her shoulders.
"And... um..." Hana had introduced herself, but this strange one had yet to reveal her name. She seemed to be somewhat of a hothead, but if she was apologizing to Hana, she couldn't be all bad... but where was the apology to Eri?!? Giving Tanu a slight leer, the enchantress held out her tiger once again, but this time more of a shield, gripping it with one hand. Her expression turned to a smile once she lowered the toy.
"I hope we can be friends... Steel-chan?" Tanu seemed strong, there had be a way she could make use of that... some day, but for now...
A dark smirk crossed Eri's face as she pulled her right arm back, "HERO-CHAN ATTACK!" Eri made a rapid sidestep and tossed the toy in Tanu's direction, although not really intending to hit the girl. She used the distraction to run for her toy dog, the real target she had thrown the lion toward, so that she could scoop both up as she left. The maneuver completed, she held both the toys in her arms and walked backwards while facing Tanu.
"That's for mistreating Bear-chan!" Eri hopped into the air as she made a perfect 180 degree turn and made her best attempt to flee.

{Edited the Eri part.}
There was no smile as the curly haired girl took the bouquet from Hanabira since she was scared and nervous as Tanu approached her. The girl with the freckles all over her face could tell that this was painful for Tanu to do, but a small smile crossed her face at the fact the Kun 'Kumo was going to apologize. "I'm sorry as well..." Hanabira said, bowing her auburn head in apologizes for her weak actions. The quiet one did not explain herself, but hoped that Tanu would understand why she was apologizing. As Kazuma showed himself, Hanabira felt an air of awkwardness settle around her and him. "Kazu-kun..." she whispered gently, bowing her head in his direction. Hanabira hadn't seen him since the attacks on the villge when she and he were stuck in the clinic taking care of Tenmoki's baby girl. Hanabira had gotten very sentimental about a little pen, but has learned to grow and move on since then.
The girl with the blond curly hair stole everyone's attention once again as she packed up her things and began to leave. Hanabira's eyebrows turned upside in a sad expression as the naive girl hoped to be friends with Tanu. As she left, she did one more action before going and Hanabira had an insecure feeling that Tanu would actually go sprinting after the little girl and attack her. Quickly, Hanabira reached out for Tanu's arm to hold her back slightly. Almost losing her balance due to her ankle, she tried to coax Tanu to stay. "I'll teach you the last techniques," Hanabira said quickly, hoping the promise of learning the techniques in the academy would keep her here at the Hanaya. "You too, Kazu-kun," Hanabira said, flashing a very brief smile at the boy, who she had considered her only friend for awhile in the village. "Let's go to the back yard?" Hanabira suggested as she began walking back to the house in order to cut through inside to head to the back yard.

As Tanu stood in front of the wounded Yamanaka with her eyes screaming out insecurities and fear while being present in front of the Kun 'Kumo girl, she was more than surprise when Hanabira actually whispered out an apology as well. Tanu wasn't quite sure what she was apologizing for, but it had taken her mind off the annoying brat with the blue eyes and dumb stuffed animals. As the freckled face girl turned towards Tanu's cousin and spoke his name, the Kun 'Kumo could tell that the two had met before and definitely knew one another. Cutting her green and red eyes over to her cousin, Kazuma, she wondered why he hadn't said anything when Tanu had mentioned Yamanaka Hanabira's name. As the blond thunder came into the spotlight once again, Tanu bore her teeth like an angry animal as she called her Steel-chan. Tanu actually liked the nickname, but she did not like the request to be friends some day. "IN YOUR DREAMS!" Tanu yelled at the top of her lungs at the girl, steamed that the little brat would even think of being in the gray of Tanu's black and white scale! What the little girl did next sent Tanu off the deep end as she threw the ridiculous animal at her. It didn't hit Tanu, but fell on the ground in front of her. "YOU LITTLE BRAT!" Tanu began to yell, but felt an unfamiliar tight grip on her arm from who she thought was Kazuma. "I'LL KILL YOU! I'LL KILL YOU IF YOU EVER TALK TO ME AGAIN!" Tanu screamed, her face turning red from the lack of oxygen while she yelled and from just anger alone... While she was being held back, Tanu kicked out her foot and stomped on the dumb toy lying in front of her until it was tearing at the seams and stuffing was coming out. Huffing and puffing once she was satisfied with the destruction of the stuffed toy, Tanu turned to the two and was shocked when she realized that the frail, pale Hanabira was the one holding her arm. Tanu glared at the Yamanaka's skin contrasting against hers. 'How is she that strong?' Tanu thought to herself before Hanabira invited them to the back yard. "I wanna learn that Kawamaku technique," Tanu said to Hanabira as she followed her through the shop, gazing at the flowers and how homey the place felt. "Kazuma, what do you wanna learn?" Tanu asked her cousin as she turned her head back at him.

A hand raised in a slight wave was the only response to Hanabira muttering Kazuma's name and bowing. He really didn't know her at all anymore, they'd known each other during the attacks but no friendship had developed after that time. Besides he wasn't here for attention anyways, Tanu was taking up enough of that on her own. He wasn't really here for any personal reason other than maybe Tanu would soften up towards him a little bit. He didn't want to fight with her but on the other hand he didn't agree with her on alot of things, which made getting along difficult. He didn't' really know what to do to change things, he felt like he wasn't in control. Which is probably what brought about the sudden and very unusual quietness from his part. It was painfully obvious that Kazuma wasn't really himself at the moment. His silence quickly turned to a vocal annoyance as Tanu flipped out at the other girl. She was so caught up on keeping the pride of the Kun' Kumo name yet she made a bigger fool of herself than him. He doubted she was aware of that either. He'd always acted out on purpose because he knew it went against what his family wanted but Tanu seemed genuinely unaware of her hypocrisy. " If you care so much about our clan you wouldn't act the way you do Tanu. You're worse than me. Why don't you settle down for once?" He tried to speak with as little of the annoyance he felt as possible, he was trying to persuade her. Not get in another yelling fight with her. Or a physical one. "... And I think you mean Kawarimi." He corrected her. " I learnt that one a while ago." He finished with a bit of a sigh, knowing she'd probably lash out at him for trying to correct her.

As Tanu came out to the backyard of the Yamanaka house, she heard Kazuma's voice once again. Rolling her eyes around to the sky, she turned to meet his critiques on her attitude. "What are you talking about? I have a more respectable attitude than you! And I shouldn't be quiet since everyone should know that we're here and we're powerful!" Tanu said, backing her own rude and obnoxious behavior up with the skewed perspective she had on clan nobility. The younger cousin definitely hadn't learn what it truly meant to represent your clan and it didn't seem like Kazuma was the one to teach her today since the words he just spoke went in one ear and out the other. The girl wanted to get into his bad behavior towards the clan, but she held her tongue and merely raised an eyebrow at her cousin, thinking that he was acting rather calm and quiet since they arrived here. Before she could comment on his own attitude, she heard him correct her on the technique's name. For a moment she was taken aback and speechless that he had picked up on her little flaw. "That's what I meant!" Tanu said with a rush of words, not quite sure what to say to Kazuma since he was the one correcting her. Tanu's face turned red after that. It wasn't from embarrassment, but from her own disappointment and anger with herself that Kazuma had known the correct name and not she. Her color deepened when she heard that Kazuma had already learned that technique. "Yea! Well, I learned Nawanuke!" Tanu shouted at him like it was some sort of competition. Feeling a bit stupid, Tanu whipped her head around to Hanabira. "What do I do first!?" she nearly demanded more than asked in order to get her training started to save her from Kazuma showing her up even more.

Quietly moving through her house while Kazuma and Tanu spoke, Hanabira concentrated on holding onto counter tops in order to make it to the back yard. As she did, she heard Kazuma try to straighten Tanu out a little bit. Hanabira was a little hesitant to chime in, but she did truly agree with what Kazuma was trying to say to his cousin. "Mm," Hanabira shook her head towards Tanu as she went back at Kazuma with her rebuttle. "Kazu-kun meant you shouldn't act out so much, Tanu-san... The way you shout and cause a ruckus is very disrespectful," Hanabira said in her very quiet voice and then shook slightly, thinking of what she had just said to a very intimidating person. "U-uhm," Hanabira choked as she opened the notebook she had picked up from one of the counters on their way to the backyard. Her olive eyes made a small glance at Kazuma, saying that she was trying to help, but wasn't strong enough to say anymore.
"For Kawamiri no jutsu... We were to learn the handseal first," Hanabira said to Tanu, knowing that the girl probably didn't have any experience with seals and techniques, since Nawanuke had seemed to be her first one. "Using the seal of the ram, execute your chakra by a means of stealth, so the opponent cannot see your technique coming," Hanabira explained to Tanu. The shy girl took a moment to let Tanu think about it and ask any questions before she turned to Kazuma. "What technique would you like to learn?" Hanabira asked him, hoping that he'd ask for a genjutsu, since that's what Hanabira did best.

Tanu just couldn't avoid being kicked down another notch as Hanabira chimed in with Kazuma to give her a vocal hit on the wrist. Scrunching up her face in reluctance, Tanu couldn't block the words that were making so much sense to her. She was disrespectful? Kazuma had also said that she was worse than him. While Tanu slowly began to unscrunch her face, she started to accept that the two may be right. "What did you mean by the way I act?" Tanu asked Kazuma without looking at him. Hanabira said that she shouldn't act out so much, but to not cause a scene about the strength of the Kun 'Kumo clan seemed to be letting them fall in the shadows of everyone else. Tanu really didn't know how to carry about anymore as she thought about it. Scratching her head, she just turned her attention towards what Hanabira was saying about the seals. "The ram?" Tanu asked, not knowing hardly any names of the seals that the shinobi used. Yet, she did know that perticular seal. In her first day of training, she had learned the ram seal for concentrating chakra onto the piece of paper. Trying to fumble her fingers together in the seal that Hanabira had shown her, Tanu tried to remember just how they went that day she had trained so hard.

As she tried to place her hands in the right spot, Tanu felt an uneasiness fall over her. Hanabira's words that had backed up Kazuma's had really gotten to her. She was calmed down on the outside, but on the inside she was a nervous wreck. The girl was so distraught that she couldn't keep her hands still while trying to remember the seal that Hanabira had just flashed at her. With her mint green brows furrowing in concentration, Tanu felt rather vulnerable at the moment and she did not like the feeling at all. For the first time in a long time, she had accepted someone's else point of view on her attitude and behavior. Her mother had always scolded her for such things back in her own home village, but she had never listened to them. The only person she had listened to was her father and once she had trusted Kage Ichi's words. "Ugh," Tanu sighed for the first time instead of groaning in anger or throwing a fit of frustration. Calm. Calm. Calm. Those were the words that Shin had been yelling at her while they had been training earlier today too. "Yamanaka... Can you show me the seal again?" Tanu asked with her voice cracking at strange moments as she dropped her hands to her sides.

Kazuma was surprised when Hanabira took his side and spoke out against Tanu, he'd failed to convince her on his own but together, it seemed like they would make an impact. He noticed Hanabira glancing at him and he nodded at her with a slight smile. She'd grown then too if she was willing to stand up to Tanu. It seemed like everyone had grown except for him. The question of what to train in was put forth and it took him a moment to think. He hadn't come here to train so he wasn't really expecting it, but it would be better than sitting around watching Tanu. "Mmm what's that one that makes you look like someone else? I always thought it would be cool to be able to do that! " He grinned as he thought of all the trouble he could cause if he was able to learn such a skill. It was an odd train of thought to go between thinking about ways to cause trouble and trying to be responsible and get Tanu to settle down and there was definitely hypocrisy there. " You completely exploded at that girl, Tanu. Do you think a proud Kun' Kumo would act like that?" He put the question forward, although not really caring if he got an answer back, the point was that she thought about what he said.

"Henge no jutsu?" Hanabira asked with a little bit of excitement in her voice. She smiled a little shyly. "I like that technique," she said happily as she brought out the seal of the ram. "Both techniques use this seal," Hanabira said holding up her hands to the two as she took a seat in a chair out on the back porch to watch them train and to take weight off of her foot. "Its the ram seal. Its the seal used to concentrate chakra the best and for a variety of techniques," Hanabira explained to the two. "Uhm, for Henge, you use your chakra to bring a cloud of smoke around your body. Its not real smoke... It has so scent or taste to it. Its more chakra bending light to create an illusion of smoke," Hanabira explained to Kazuma, hoping that he would understand or catch on a little as to what genjutsu was. Hanabira was surprised by how comfortable and how much she was speaking to the two. Hanabira hadn't even spoken this much when Shin had been around.
