Welcome to Gaia! ::

"I got it!"clicking the last three photos, Tai exclaimed to Tenrai, before realizing his mistake, and slapping his hand over his mouth. <********>. With that, Taiji had hopped off of the wall, landing on the surface area of the water, His chakra holding him up. He waved to Tenrai madly, as if giving some sort of signal before bounding off to the front desk of the hot springs. A quick look to the old man, and a smile passed between the two, was all the sign they needed. Tossing Taizo his share of the bonus Ryo, Taizo gave him a thumbs up, and tossed him his camera before speedily running out of the hotsprings, unwilling to allow himself to be caught doing that!

Making his way back into the Hotsprings, he eyed the area around him. There was no sign of the women who were chasing him before hand, Taizo imagined that they would rather not be in there, considering that there were already perverts in the hot springs. Tai chuckled to himself at the thought that he was one of those very perverts. Stepping up to the front desk, he rang the bell, and after a few moments, a man came from a back room, and waved to him. "Ahhh you must be the Genin that they sent to clean up here eh? That boys section is gettin' pretty dirty, so why don't you go and clean 'er up for me?"

Taizo nodded silently as he walked over to the supplies closet. Opening the door from an awkward angle, he made sure that no karate masters with thick Japanese accents would punch him in the face while yelling "Supplies". Taking a mob, and a scrubbing sponge in one hand, he snatched up a bucket with the other. Balance off, he staggered to the males spring, and dropped his bucket and cleaning supplies. "This place is filthy...ugh. I'm gonna be here for ******** ever, considering the shape of this place."

And with that, Tai began to scrub with all of his might.

Tai looked up from his scrubbing to see the pink haired boy who was watching his and Tenrai's Spar. Smiling, he threw the sponge to him, and chuckled "It's Been like twenty minutes actually, This isn't as hard as I had imagined, dirt doesn't stick very well with all of this steam. Gimme a hand will ya?"

((I did two posts of cleaning, so you throw two posts on it, and we're good!))

"H-he..he's like some kind of mopping Demon!" Taizo snatched the mop from his hand swiftly, and in a slightly frightened tone, addressed M. "H-hey..dude, look." Tai pointed to the spa floors, to reveal, that they were spotless! perfectly shining and clean, Tai grabbed the supplies and threw them in the closet, before gettingthe reward and splitting it with M. "Here's your fifty, thanks for the help!"

Tenrai barged in, slamming the door open. "What's next? Why my dear. We will go on mission!" Tenrai said, he had a crazy look on his face, he had a sudden burst of determination. "Taizo, whoever you are, patrol the village, just make sure every single place is checked! I'll go check everywhere you're not checking! If you see Suzume, tell her too!" Tenrai quickly disappeared, going off to make a quick patrol of his village.

Sneaking around to the back of the hotsprings, Tai met with a man wearing a hat, and sunglasses, as well as being covered up by a very heavy looking jacket. He thought that it was rather hot this time of year to be wearing something that big, but he quickly thought differently when he realized what he was gong to be doing. The old man held out a camera, and from behind his coat collar, Tai could make out a mischievous grin. Rolling his eyes, and placing his hands on his hips, he questioned the man, "This stuff again? I swear dude, If I get caught, it's your a**."

Wandering back around to the front of the building, Taizo hid behind a sign post, waiting for attractive girls that met the description on the piece of paper that the man gave him. It wasn't a very broad list, but it still was kind of, picky. After catching sight of two girls, who both fit the description perfectly, he face palmed. "I know them from the academy..Ugh, This is gonna be awkward." Giving himself a quick moment to clear his thoughts and think about the task at hand, Tai stood, and agreed with himself to just suck it up, do it, and pretend like this never, EVER happened.

Taizo was back at it again, more perverted requests from that awkward looking elderly man. He had no idea what was going to happen to him if he got caught, but he was well aware that it wouldn't be pretty in the slightest. Walking casually into the mens side of the hot springs, he made it seem as if he was really interested in the idea of bathing even taking the time to talk to one of the attendants. After receiving his towel, he went in, and removed his clothing, sitting himself in the steamy waters, until he heard the distinct sound of his old classmates voices.

Something struck Tai as odd though, he heard a third familiar voice, but he couldn't quite place the person. He ran through his head, over, and over again; about who could be behind that familiar tone. "O-oh god....no...Sensei Kanoko.." No good, A frightening shiver rolled up his spine as he remembered the the yelling, and the scolding, and the punishing. He knew now that if he got caught by her, he would never see the light of day again. Scrambling to get out, Tai made his way towards the door, about to head for the hills, when a little voice in the back of his head beckoned him to stop.

He wanted to run as fast as he could,and he knew that he was breaking the rules, and that his mortal enemy was waiting on the other side of that wall. One simple slip up, and it would be all over, she would kill him, Figuratively of coarse. The little voice grew louder, and called out to him, to aim his focus, so that he could pass on to a Chuunin. He didn't exactly like the idea of this, and this had actually become his most "Dangerous" mission so far, but as a shinobi, there would be more danger later. He couldn't just hide every time he felt scared, or was faced with a problem he did not want to face. He had to turn around right now, and finish what he started, He had to get those photos!

Running rack to the wall, Tai began to climb, unwilling to use jutsu, as his old teacher would become immediately aware, and know that something was up. He felt it rather difficult considering that the wall was slippery and wet, due to all of the steam build-up on the smooth rock surface. After several minutes of calm, patient, and careful climbing, he made it to the top, and eyed his fellow ninja, picking out his classmates first. Snapping once, and then twice, and then a third time, before he noticed Kanoko-sensei beginning to turn her head. He sunk as low as he possibly could, sweat beading down from his brow into his eyes, as he shook terribly.

The sound of happy women chatting alerted him to their attention to other things, rather than he. Lifting up slowly, and ever so cautiously, he eyed them again, waiting for the right moment to catch a nice pose, Snapping a fourth shot as one of his classmates bent over to get his towel,and a trickle of red ran down his nose. Snapping the fifth and sixth shots as the other classmate helped the first clean her back, as she was unable to reach it. "This better be worth it to that pervert", Taizo thought to himself as his former teach lined up for the perfect seventh shot.

Leaning over onto the other students, Tai made a clever analysis, as it became apparent that his teacher was drunk! She would never realize what was going on in that state, and as her rather large chest rested atop the head of a student she was becoming rather friendly with, Tai snapped the eighth shot. Hopping down from the wall, Taizo slipped, and banged his rear on the rock. "YEEEEEAAAAAARRRGHJ!" he exclaimed, before trying to save face. "I'm..okay, I just, slipped while getting..out of the springs.." Dashing out with his clothes in hand, covered in only a towel, Taizo snatched the coinpurse that the man held out and tossed him the camera, not stopping in between as he continued to the Dojo.
