Welcome to Gaia! ::

Haruko looked on. She was like a kid in a candy store. "Oooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooh... COOL! DO IT AGAIN! DO IT AGAIN!" She began to hop up and down on his lap like a happy little child and squeeled at seeing the display. She'd never seen a fist of wood...of course..the owners of the establishment probably wouldn't be too happy that they had a huge hole in their floor with a wooden fist sticking out of it.

Roy looked to the old man then over to the fist. He walked up to it and kicked it a few times to see how solid it was, "Yep...this things solid...so umm. Hay old man. Exactly how do you plan on paying for this floor and the ceiling? According to you guys you don't have any money...sooo...yea...Don't think it was too smart to make a hole in the floor and ceiling of the ANBU Leaders cafe..." Roy sighed thinking about how, if they didn't want any trouble from the ANBU, making an enemy of the Leader was the 'perfect way' to go about that...not.

Haruko looked to Roy and got a crossed look on his face. She then moved up to whisper in the old mans ear, "Oy oy, Grandpa. Hit my cousin with that move. Pllllleeeeease!"

((Oh where will Shika land...?))

Satoshi made his way inside his gaze searching for someone in particular. He wasn’t exactly sure who he was searching for, but he knew that they were here. Even from way back in the market area of the village he had seen small explosion. Someone had knocked someone out of the restaurant using wood and then like magic repaired the damages. Satoshi might not have actually known how to perform any of his clan’s jutsus or a lot about the clan itself, but he knew his clan’s handiwork when he saw it.

Eventually his eyes fell upon someone he did recognize if by name only. It was Senju Zephyr. Satoshi had never met his clanmate personally, but during his travels with the small band of refugees he had watched the Senju master in action. Satoshi had never really gotten the courage to ask him about the clan or anything for that matter, but seeing as how very few Senju there were now it was an inevitable thing. Satoshi took a big gulp as he made his way over to Zephyr. When he was finally standing before him he gave a deep bow to show his respects. Satoshi finally rose saying, “I apologize for bothering you Zephyr-sama. My name is Senju Satoshi a fellow clansman. I came here after seeing a bit of your doing and I couldn’t resist introducing myself.” Satoshi then went quite hoping the powerful clansman would not brush him off.

Roy blinked for a moment. Think that was the happiest he had seen the old man today. He shrugged for a moment and sighed as he scratched his head. It was no big deal to him really. He looked forward and smiled, "Well now, why don't you guys go on and spar. I'll go collect Shiki-boy and get started with my training. Not that I don't want to watch but..."

He glanced over to Haruko who was over on the rafters poking at the wood that had been replaced. A sweat drop appeared on his head. When had she climbed up there and how did he not hear the rest of the rafters creeking? He sighed without much of a word and headed out with a bow to the older gentalmen and a wave.

He then stopped and turned. "Oh, and my name is Takamichi Roy. If you need anything while your staying in Iwagakure, please come find me. I'm the Tsuchikage's assisstant sort of. Heheh, anyway, I'm sure I'd be a bit easier to deal with than the ANBU. Toodles." And with that, he was off.

[exit Roy: Going to Academy to pick up Shikimori]]

Zephyr beamed brilliantly at Roy. He doesn't have to worry about dealing with Shikamori's rant for now! But...then he realized something very important...but Roy had already disappeared. A sweatdrop appeared on the older sannin’s head. “Eh...so...does Iwa have training grounds somewhere?” He asked Yokou, since she was probably here around the village longer. The Hyuuga leader simply shook her head. “The group only arrived last night.” Zephyr merely grunted again and looked at his three charges - the pale-haired boy, Ryoko, and Satoshi. “Well...the spar will have to wait until we can find proper training grounds... I think you know why, Yokou. So...we shall head for non-destructive training for now! Follow me, my little duckies!”

((exit Zephyr, Yokou, and Shinratsu to Main Village))

((oh god haruko run away crying ))

Ame blushed slightly as Zanza got up and left. Was it something she did? Hopefully not. She fiddled with her food a little bit until Houka broke from his own thoughts and spoke something that she had no clue about. "Wait... what...? Are you ok, kid? Hungry....?" She looked at him, examining his face, he didn't look too good at all.

''No, I'm not hungry. I'm angry...after carefull consideration.''

He was talking to Ame but is whole speech was aimed at both of them, Ame and Sensei.

''I'v been thinking about the mission...and that sensei probably know now that we mostly all hate him for it. The more I think about it, the more I found that this mission was suicide. That bandit was ranked B...a dangerous mission, suicidal for inexperienced genins. Lucky for me, you and Zanza had enough of it. Still, that bandit took more then a tool on us. Zanza was hurt....''

Houka took a short break, his voice was shaking now.

''And if that bandit would have turn his sword on me when I was resting to regain my limited chakra, I would have died. Frankly, such mission usally have rewards and detailed information for the most part. Engaging in it require preparation...but we where told we would ran on bandit when it was to late for that. Above all we where all focus on finding the scroll and we lack the part of hiding. For the most part, we didn't lowered our voice and didn't try to do less noise, until it was to late. Ground noise and cave sound carry far way...I'm sure Sensi heard us a mile away. Mind you, I know that we are all at fault here. Still, we where lucky that bandit was stupid enough to attack us, instead of ambushing us. Whorse, the fighting sound could have brought much more attention...leaving only two option, finish the job or leave the cave with due haste. We did both.''

A long sigh came out of Houka's mouth.

''The only thing I deplore is the whole lack of covering. Sensei should have monitered the whole thing...to make sure we where safe...sense this was just team training...I supposed.''
