Chapter 1: The Genin

__NOTOC__
==Chapter 2==
Kyo: -It was Mid Afternoon in Konohagakure and the Sun hung bright and blooming in the sky, sending its rays shimmering across the Village and it's occupants. The current Hokage of Konohagakure sat perched atop a tall building opposite her office, her eyes scanning the Village she had grown to love, her bright red hair flowing messily in the wind fit well with her new Deep Crimson Hokage cloak adorned with White flames. Lifting her hand she scratched the back of her neck gingerly as her legs gave way slightly and bent allowing her body to move down slowly into a crouch, her eyes still scanning. It was an overly hot day, Kyo Uzumaki hated hot days and yet here she was outside, unable to stay inside due to the heat and unable to escape it no matter where she went, it was indeed bothersome. The Village itself was filled with the hustle and bustle of merchants and people enjoying the day, Children running and playing and the far off sound of people splashing in the Village rivers, Kyo smiled gently to herself, Konohagakure surely was the most beautiful place in the world. Without a moments hesitation she dropped from the roof and landed with a small thud on the dirt road below, her bright White eyes shimmering against the rays of the sun as she began to walk casually down the road not sure where she was going as of yet.-
Nana: -I yawn sleepily as “morning” comes, and slowly make my way out of bed, then take a bath. After about 30 minutes inside, I get out and get dressed in my usual ninja outfit, grabbed a cooler with some ice, and headed out into the city to do some shopping for tonight’s dinner, only to find that it was actually afternoon, and I’d slept far longer than I thought. As I walked in the crowded streets of the shopping district, I began to think about what I was in the mood for. After debating for several minutes, I decided on Takoyaki, Salmon Sashimi, and a bowl of homemade Ramen. I already had some ginger and wasabi at home, so all I needed were the ingredients for the food itself. With my dinner in mind, I went around to the shops that I frequented, purchasing the food with some of the money I’d gained from my first D-Rank mission, gathering laundry It would not take long until the supplies were gathered, and I decided to begin return home, taking the scenic route. Along this route, I passed by the training grounds, looking in and admiring the nature of it, and stopped for a bit, and decided to sleep under the shade of a tree, despite having already sleep so long.-
Kyo: -Kyo's left hand lifted and ran through her soft hair slowly, untangling any knots that had been created as she'd slept, that's right, she hadn't bothered to brush it. Slowly but surely the dirt road began to turn into grass and the sounds of people grew a little quieter in the distance, she inhaled through her nose and exhaled through her mouth her chest rising and falling as she did so, she enjoyed the peacefulness of the outdoors. It made her miss Missions, being pushed into Hokage at such a Young as had been difficult for her and it was only on rare occasions that she was permitted to leave the Village and go on adventure, she missed the thrill of new Missions and new people. As Kyo continued to walk she sensed the presence of another, although they didn't seem to be moving, she turned her head slightly to the right "Byakugan" She whispered gently the veins around her eyes pulsing and throbbing as they grew, within a few moments she spotted the person that she had sensed. A small girl lay under a tree, Kyo blinked in confusion, didn't the girl know it wasn't safe to do such a thing, it was then she noticed the bags of food next to the girl and hit herself with a thump in the forehead with her palm. Did she not realize how unsafe it was to lay there? Not only by herself but with items that could potentially be stolen? Kyo, who was adept in the Body Flicker Technique, disappeared and reappeared next to the girl reaching down slowly and poking her nose with an eyebrow raised on her pretty pale face.-
Nana: -I was having a dream. It was one of peace and quiet, quite possibly due to having fallen asleep in the comfort of nature. I could feel the cool wind against my face, the drops of dew falling from the leaves as wind carried them away, and see the sparkle of sunlight on a calmly flowing stream. It was truly a paradise of nature within my dream. The only thing missing were the patter of rabbits running in the bushes, the chirping of birds and the flapping of their wings. But as I thought that, they completely formed within the dream, and a rabbit emerged from the bushes and cocked it head at me, then continued pattering back into its little rabbit hole. Soon after falling asleep though, I’d thought I heard something, and it caused me to lightly stir, but entirely wake up. However, just a few moments later, I could feel a soft, warm sensation on the tip of my nose, causing me to open my eyes and blink sleepily as I tried to get my vision readjusted. My eyes were still somewhat blurry, and while rubbing them, I softly spoke to the blur of red and white.- “What is it, Onee-san?” *Onee-san: referring to a young woman who is older than the speaker, generally a young child*
Kyo: -"Ya'know" Kyo said her voice casual "If I wanted I could just steal your food here" She had since plopped down onto the ground opposite the girl and crossed her legs her White Byakugan eyes, now deactivated, were observing the girl with some interest. "You shouldn't fall asleep out here all by yourself, if you get kidnapped it would be a huge hassle to have to form a Squad to go looking for you" Kyo then reached up and scratched the back of her neck again absentmindedly "So what's your name, Uchiha?". The Hokage's casual attitude usually threw many people off as, being in a position of power, people usually assumed she would be well presented and formal, Kyo was an ENTIRELY different kettle of fish, she was herself always and completely stubborn. She reached out slowly and picked up the bags of goods that had fallen over sitting them upright before flicking her eyes back to the girl with curiosity "I'm sure I've seen you before, ya'know" Her eye's narrowed slightly as she tried to rack her brains. Kyo was often so busy that it was impossible for her to remember everyone, she almost felt bad for forgetting as she sat there staring at the girl for the next 5 minutes her brain working in overdrive in an attempt to dislodge some form of lost memory that may give her the answer. She sighed after a few minutes and hung her head "Okay I don't remember" Waving her hand gently she looked back up "I'm busy a lot ya'know" Her facial expression turned to that of someone who is extremely sorry as she gave the girl a lopsided smile.-
Nana: -After rubbing my eyes and finally speaking up, I’d gotten a bit of an unexpected reply, from a very frightening voice. Yes. How could I possibly forget the voice of my own Kage? As a Genin, I of course looked up to shinobi. And the strongest of shinobi was the Kage of the village. I made a point of remembering her face and voice when I’d met her, receiving my very first mission. I opened my eyes, nearly feeling like I’d have a heart attack, and stared straight at her as she tried to remember me. For a bit, I didn’t even know what she was saying, I was just mindlessly staring at her. As she said “Okay, I don’t remember.”, I came to my senses. Somewhat.- “H-H-H-H-H-Hokage-sama! I a-apologize for my rudeness!” –I was blushing from the incredible embarrassment at having not only caused the Hokage worry by sleeping here, but having called her “Onee-san”.- “I-I’m sorry, Hokage-sama. I-I was just intending to take a short nap, and trusted my senses to alert me of incoming people.” –And then, practically flailing as I nervously answered her other question, which I’d nearly forgotten.- “M-My name is Uchiha Nana. I’m just a Genin that’s had but a single mission.” –After having rambled on about everything at once, I blushed heavily and sat up properly against the tree, looking down into my lap to avoid eye contact with the Hokage.-
Kyo: -Kyo, whose mouth was still hanging open from her last statement, watched as the girl blurted out everything all at once and blinked several times as she managed to keep up. It only took one mention of the name "Uchiha Nana" before Kyo's mind travelled back into her mind Palace where she witnessed the mission notes, completion, the girls face and the face of the Young Inuzuka who had been her Mission companion. After several moments of being in a trance like state Her eyes returned to their usual alertness and she looked back to Nana. "Just a Genin?" Kyo raised her right eyebrow "I wouldn't say that from what I hear you are one of the most promising Genin in the Leaf Village" She blinked "You shouldn't speak so little of yourself ya'know?". Tugging at the grass in front of her The Hokage felt slightly embarrassed for frightening the poor girl she hadn't meant to "It's a pretty admirable thing for you to sleep here knowing you can trust your senses I respect that" She looked back up at the Genin "And please, don't treat me like some kind of superior being, it gets to be a drag ya'know? People are always like that around me, I might be Hokage but I'm still a Shinobi" Kyo's face looked slightly saddened as she looked down at the small grass pile she'd made. It bothered her that she couldn't make friends or speak with Shinobi and Villagers like she always used to, they were either scared or to careful around her, she understood that she demanded respect but they didn't have to treat her like an alien, she sighed gently as the wind blew. Kyo had been treated like an Alien as she grew up within the Hyuga Clan due to her Uzumaki blood, the Village itself had been the only place she'd been accepted and now she was treated like an Alien there a swell.-
Nana: -I sat for a few moments as she began to think seemingly trying to remember me. After the Hokage seemed to remember me, I looked back up a little bit, and replied to her praise of both my mission history and my confidence in my senses.- “Ah, no.. That’s…” –I immediately began to blush more, and sufficed to say a simple “Thank you”. But after that, she’d said to treat her normally, saying that she was still a Shinobi. I felt kind of bad, imagining myself in that kind of situation.- “S-Sorry. I was just a bit surprised. I never expected to run into you, Hokage-sama.” –I smiled a little bit and gathered the courage to look up to her, trying to act as natural as I could, despite the overwhelming nervousness of being in her presence. I hugged my knees and kept smiling, thinking about the praise that she’d given me. I’d thought myself to be an average shinobi, and nothing special. But hearing words of praise from the Hokage herself seemed like a total dream. As I realized I was being quiet for several seconds, I blushed a little bit and spoke softly. “S-So, what brings you out here, if I may ask?”
Kyo: -Kyo, who had been staring at the mound of grass she'd been making in her silence, looked up her bright white eyes shimmering and glistening as a soft breeze rustled the leaves above them blocking and revealing small rays of sun. She had to admit, it had indeed been awhile since she'd been out and about like this and, until the question was asked, she didn't quite realize how seeing her around had now become an unfamiliar sight to her new Shinobi, she kept a note of this in the back of her mind. "Well to be honest I was just going for a walk, sitting in the Hokage office all day gets kind of boring, ya'know?" She tilted her pretty pale head to side, her messy Red hair flopping slightly with it "How about you Nana, what're you doing out here this time of day?" Even though the question was customary, the Hokage was genuinely curious and casually wondered if her curiosity would make the Girl uneasy. Kyo lifted her right hand slowly and pressed it down upon the small mound of grass resting at her foot, pushing the grass down into the earth and sighing as she did so before looking back up at Nana "Do you like Ramen?" She asked her head still tilted at an angle that was almost amusing, the young Hokage looked almost Childlike at present, her eyes lighting up with the thought of Ramen as she waited for the girls response to all her questions.-
Mugen:  - Mugen, was walking slowly on the top of the rooftops and looking down at the people that rushed from here, there and everywhere at ground, he was smoking a cigarette as he usually did and enjoyed the fresh air on the top. he didn't feel like to walk among all those poeple stressing about their daily chores. he had a day off and wanted to spend most of his time relaxing rest of the day, maybe fins agood spot to take a nap. he was humming the first tune that he could think of. he took a deep breath and mumbled to himself " what a wondeful day". he wore his usual set of clothes, his black beanie wich pressed down his long and darkbrown hair, his headband that covered his left eye, his mask ( wich at the moment pulled down) wich covered his neck,mouth and nose, his blue hakame that covered his jounin shirt and his jounin pants and standard shinobi shoes. all that he wanted today was just be able to relax and chill as much as he could-
Kyo: -Kyo couldn't help but chuckle slightly at Nana's question, generally if one asked you if you enjoyed something they usually liked it themselves. She pondered whether or not to insist that she loathed Ramen just to see the Girls reaction, but decided against it, it was cruel to tease the Genin so. "I love Ramen" Kyo nodded her head three times in quick succession before standing up in one fluid motion as if she had never been cross legged upon the grass. "Would you like to get some?" Kyo said her eyes wide and her head still tilted in a questioning way, much like a puppy "Oh I'm paying, ya'know?" Kyo grinned, her head breaking from it's tilt as she shoved her right hand behind her head and scratched her neck, strangely she wasn't nervous any more. What better way to get started than to learn more about a Genin of her Village right? Besides, she hated being stern and hanging out with Nana meant that she could be casual and not be considered odd, she turned slightly on her heel and bent down picking up Nana's things, she then pivoted on her heel and headed off back towards the Village carrying Nana's things as she did so. As Kyo walked she curiously peered into the bags, sniffing slightly "What were you gunna make anywho?" She asked not bothering to look over her shoulder, assuming Nana was following her "Are you good at cooking?". When Kyo was comfortable with someone she was usually quite open and rarely formal, she herself was unaware of how she acted during this time as she was generally seemingly oblivious to anything other than her current goal. It wasn't really a ruse, although many people called it just a cover up, it was really her genuine personality crawling to the surface, one she rarely ever got to show to anyone. As the dense green grass finally made way to the soft dirt road Kyo inhaled and then exhaled with a small sigh, the familiar comfort of the Leaf Village now visible in front of her, it would be nice to get a hot steaming bowl of Ichiraku Ramen and sit down to a conversation with this bright young Genin.-
