Uzumaki Ritsuka, Inuzuka Unaru, Yamanaka Akatori
==Title: Lost Connections==
IlRitsuka: It was fairly early in the afternoon that Ritsuka Uzumaki had found himself wandering the streets of Amegakure No Sato in the direction of his boyfriend Unaru Inuzuka's apartment. He was finding himself quite bored and it was something he found unbearable. Being only a crow clone of himself it didnt limit the things he would be able to do. He was not able to spar or fight, as getting hit by an attack would cause him to disperse into a Murder of crows. He had finished what he initially was there for. He was created to oversee the spar of his genin team to its finish, Gauging the growth and progress of his two original teammates Tetsuo Hyuga and Unaru. His newest addition to his team he had selected himself was another male, Ban Nara. He had chosen him to fill the place he had left as the Medium to far range fighter on their team. The spar had given him the information he had needed. Tetsuo and Unaru had progressed well. He was sure they would do well in the upcoming chunnin exams. Ban however showed signs that worried him. His lack luster attitude as well as his attempt to seriously injure members of his own team. The verdict was that he had much more to learn and might be reckless in the exams. He would have unaru try to talk to the boy though at the serious attempt on Unaru's Ninkin he figure that might be a bad idea so decided best not to bring it up. His blue eyes raised to look a few feet ahead of him to rest on the building that Unarus apartment was in. He sighed lightly, brushing his red hair with his hands in an attempt to look good for the other boy, Also straightening out his Blue and purple Flak Vest. Before proceeding in to Unarus door and tapping upon it lightly and awaiting an answer*
UnaruInuzuka: -Listening to his pups talking softly to the side of the room on the large chair he had been sitting in the middle of it working on using a whet stone to sharpen his weapons the soft rubbing sound as he worked on them a soft addition to the two pups light voices. He had been lost in his thoughts, a fact he often did when by himself like this and couldn’t help each time a train of thought spoke of his team that he had to immediately pause his actions to take a slow breath. He used a cloth to wipe one kunai down from its sharpening and set it into a pouch holding most of the others he owned, all sharp and ready for anything. He then took one of the last ones and went to start work on it moments before he heard the knock of his door. His head lifted up and cocked to the side questioningly, he didn’t see it but his pups had actually stopped talking and had echoed the same action as their leader. He set the weapon down on the floor near the others and got up rubbing his hands on his black pants before slipping on his fingerless gloves. He gave a sniff past the slight oil scent that was on the weapons and realized who it was even before opening it. He couldn’t help the turn up of the corner of his lips. He knew it wasn’t the Ritsuka he really wanted, the real one that he almost craved being around but it being him none the less was letting him stay calm when the world often felt like chaos to him. And knowing that this clone was here, walking breathing and all meant that his Uzumaki was safe a fear he couldn’t shake no matter what, and honestly didn’t want to, if he did it would mean he has lost caring. He didn’t bother with the bracers leaving part of that burn exposed but unnoticed to him at this point. He pulled his short sleeve black hoodie down a bit leaving his sleeveless jacket to the side as he walked over to the door. He ruffled his hair a little knowing some strands were sticking up since his hair was quite dry before he opened the door to look upon the clone. His silver shards showing how happy he was to see it even if his expression seemed a little dull, but that was normal for this Inuzuka and he knew deep inside Ristuka would know how much he treasured the moments around him. He had paused a moment and cantered his head softly it was a gentle question. He didn’t know if this was shinobi related or for personal reasons yet and was quite patient enough to wait and see. However he did lean forward and lightly kiss his lips none the less. He knew all the information this clone has inside him will be given to Ristuka as soon as he releases it later so he took complete advantage of that fact.- “Hi Tsu-kun.”
IlRitsuka: As the door swung open to reveal unaru waiting for his a grin formed on his lips before they pursed to meet unas kiss, returning the gesture happily. - “Hey Unaru, I am doing good, How are you?”- He asked him quietly as they stood in the doorway of his home. He could not help but admire the boys handsome features, His silver eyes always tended to lock Ritsukas blue ones on them. He looked behind unaru to spot the tools he had set out. He figured unaru had been cleaning or sharpening his tools. Something Ritsuka usually didn't do. Was easier to just buy new ones when need be. He reached his hands out to grab unarus own holding them lightly before his gaze caught sight of a Burn on the others forearm. His fingers reached to brush along it lightly. He hadnt noticed it before as it would normally be covered by his bracers. He pondered if he should question it. Knowing unaru to be thrown off by thing he figured he would ignore it instead, knowing the boy would likely tell him in his own time when he was ready. He was also being more careful of thing he asked and requested of the other. He didnt want the other to answer because he was a jounin and a superior to the other, He wanted him to answer because he trusted ritsuka with the information. The recent Promotion had been sudden anyway.In his opinion it had greatly decreased his popularity among some of the genin. Most of them beginning to avoid or interact less with Ritsuka. It was a painful reality but one he would never let anyone know was bothering him. The one thing that did visually bother him was the doubt they cast on his ranking. He tried harder and harder to prove to them he was worthy of the title and constantly was pushing his limits to show them what he was capable though it didnt appear to matter much. Unaru however was someone ritsuka wasnt afraid to be himself with or speak his mind. The one person beside his father who could more than likely guess the doubts and insecurities he was tormented by. He tilted his head with a light smirk at una and looking behind to the pups he asked them all in a general manner. - “You guys wanna go for a walk around the village?” He really needed something to get his mind off of the things eating away at him.*
UnaruInuzuka: -He had let his hands be taken by Ritsuka’s own, he let himself hold them as if he didn’t want to let them go again. He considered his words, he knew Ritsuka’s affirmation to his well being was to keep him grounded, knowing those words wouldn’t just mean this clones well being but the real Ritsuka was doing fine. His soft silence for a moment lingered as he let his thumbs brush over the top of those hands as if the touch kept him calm, soon enough those words finally slipped to the air.- “I’m doing ok. We’re doing ok.” –His short words including his ninken in his answer not wishing Ritsuka to get worried over his restless sleep and the reminders of how close he had lost himself that day not long ago. Most would be feeling guilty for having such dark thoughts slip to mind in that free for all fight however for Unaru it was more like feeling guilty for those dark thoughts being noticed more than having thought them in the first place. He let his eyes continue to trail over the clones face enjoying those brilliant blue eyes, those soft features. He took note of the other teens look over his shoulder farther into the room clearly taking note of his activities. He prided himself in keeping his weapons as long as possible, he was use to saving cash where he could and if it meant taking a hour or two of his time to sharpen them periodically he will. The small hint of his boyfriends features as he looked was read easily by this Inuzuka that prided himself in reading the smallest things from a person and it said he never did such a thing before, as if it was foreign to him, and he had no doubt it was. He was the Amekage’s son, he would have had the best and never wanted for anything beyond skills. That was part of what he loved of the crimson haired teen… he could have anything but he had picked this screwed up stray… it made him feel like he meant something far greater than his Uzumaki probably even understood. He watched as those blue pools had lowered to look at him his heart thudding in his chest as he took notice that he looked upon his left arm. The burn was wide and long, it started three inches below his elbow and trailed down to under those fingerless gloves he wore. It covered the whole top of his arm and hand, and if he had looked carefully it even was on the tops of his fingers. It clearly had been a bad burn if it had left scaring like it did. He remembered the day he had gotten it and he had vowed he wouldn’t get hurt like that again. He had never gotten angry at the one who did it, he was more angry at himself for letting it happen in the first place, even if she had been punished for the actions that had scarred him. He glanced down at the scar himself… he hadn’t avoided showing Ritsuka the mark, but he doubted he had taken note of it at those times, not like this moment. He had only one reason he never mentioned where it came from, and it was because of who had done it. How could he tell him that his little sister had been the one to mar his boyfriend like this? That the pink haired girl they both had grieved over and had brought them together was the reason he was now marked? He could see the question in the other teens face but also saw him holding back on asking. He was often thankful for this, it let him try to ignore his past sometimes… to try to deal with life as they had it and not have to remember things he went thru. As for Ritsuka’s promotion to Jounin… he only treated him as a superior when it was needed, when orders came up and he had no choice but to listen, beyond that he treated him equally… He didn’t want to loose him and tried his damnedest to make sure Ritsuka knew that he meant the world to him. He heard the question of a walk, and behind him the two perked up eared pups cried out a “yeah” and “ye’ plea’e” the sound of Anryoku trying to say those S’s quite cute, they still sounding almost silent in his ears.- “ I Would like that.” –Before the other could move away he let his hands go and let his hand slowly remove the glove of his on his left hand and spoke up softly looking down at it silver shards trailing over the skin there.- “You don’t need to ask… it… just was a bad sparing accident when I first came here” – After a moment he let himself shrug his shoulders and slipped the glove back on and went to grab his things to take that walk as if he had just talked about the weather rather than a life changing moment for him. Ever since that day he has only been hurt badly once more, and that was from the Kage and his Anbu commander in a training session. His words were matter of fact as if the memories didn’t hurt like they likely should for such a thing, but knowing Unaru, Ritsuka would know he rarely showed emotions verbally, all his care, love, pain and anger was always in his eyes and actions, sometimes so small one had to hunt for it but other times like a billboard blazing behind him when one finally learns how to read him or knows how to see those small signs normally.-
IlRitsuka: *Ritsuka smiled slightly as the pups spoke up, the action lightening his mood a bit. He didn’t bother entering the apartment since they would be heading out to the Rainy streets of the village momentarily, he settled for standing near the doorway hold The Inuzuka's hands in his own. He breathed in deeply through his nose, taking in the familiar scent of the rain as well as the scent of his teammate which was always a comfort to him. He peeked behind Una at the pups who were probably eager for them to begin their walk. As the other released his hold of Ritsukas hands to prepare for the walk, Ritsuka moved his arms up above his head stretching lightly. His head tilted to the side in a curious manner as Unaru explained the scars *"A sparring accident, I see" *Was his simple reply. He wanted to avoid pressing the issue further so he left it at that. Whatever had happened was in the past, He would do his best to prevent any of those "accidents" from happening to him again. Unaru was one of the few Ritsuka allowed himself to care for, it was something that had dwindled greatly since the loss of his sister Nakara. Besides the Inuzuka the others were his parents, Akatori, and his team. He had hardened himself in case of the inevitable loss that is a risk to all shinobi. As the thoughts of his sister made their way into his mind he turned away from the group, looking through the open door behind him, sighing in attempt to let the anger and hurt that had crept up on him, out. He looked back over his shoulder looking at the boy and two pups again letting his gaze linger for a moment before speaking * " Alrighty, Are we ready to go? " He walked out of the door standing to the side so the others could pass him on their way out. Trying to think of a decent plan for their walk. Maybe they would walk down the main street today. It wasn’t something he did often. Usually he tried to avoid contact with the villagers if he was alone. But today it would be a nice change to walk and see the various storefronts and shops along the way. He did secretly hope their walk would remain uninterrupted, wanting the private time with his boyfriend. He knew that even with the clone here, Unaru was worrying over him while he was away on his long mission. He waited for unaru to lock up and grabbed the other hand again before beginning the walk he had looked forward to. He did his best to make casual conversation as they walked. *"So what do you think of the new genin Nara Ban" * He was curious to see what the other had to say after the Spar he had team 4 partake in. Hoping that he made the right choice to pick the shadow user for his replacement. He turned to look at una as he answered hoping to get some honest clues from his facial expressions, knowing even if there was some they would be hard to find from the young Inuzuka.*
UnaruInuzuka: -He had shifted and grabbed his weapons, including the kunai he was sharpening just before Ritsuka had come, and scrolls and placed on his bracers and shin guards. Settling the pouches into place, both hip and thigh ones he flicked the sleeveless jacket he had thrown over a chair to around himself slipping arms within those holes before moving towards the doorway where he had left his boyfriend. He had heard the comment of Ritsuka but had just let it be softly settled in the air and hopefully forgotten, he had the scar, and it was done with, the memory of how it came to be his own. It was before they even had been on the same team let along met each other, even then he had hid it from sight, he didn’t want pity over it, it was a reminder and a lesson in of itself and he hasn’t let himself be hurt as such again. Just like… just like he was learning to start trusting his team… or… at least was trying to… a scowl formed on his lips, barely there before he wiped it away glancing at his pups that came to already wait at the door. He motioned for them to head on out, a small sign of a hand and they were out the door on a flash, he knew they wouldn’t stray, likely Buruu would tire of walking soon enough but for now the two were wound up to enjoy the stroll. He locked up the door and let his fingers intertwine with the uzumaki’s own as he settled a trap within the door jam before closing the door, he was too paranoid not to place traps to protect his home from others. He walked with him down the road and soon had found themselves in the main streets. He won’t deny it, he rarely took to the streets on his own, he preferred the roof tops or the more quiet areas of the village, or even the more unknown ones so being where the crowds were felt odd to him. However he didn’t comment, or complain, this walk was with Ritsuka and it kept his mind at peace, he knew it was just a clone but it spoke volumes, he was alive, and at well as far as he knew. He had glanced over at Rituka when he asked about what he thought of the Nara in the group. It wasn’t hard to see the agitation of the thought of the guy, his eyes had instantly narrowed and a small curve of his lip had dipped down before he finally spoke, his words flat clearly showing the fact of him not liking him but still not going to lie.- “ He fights alright… however his attitude towards the people who will be on his team doesn’t sit well with me…” –The comment was clear, and Ritsuka would know it well enough, Unaru didn’t trust easily, and dealing with someone like the Nara at his back made him uncomfortable and in turn wouldn’t give his back to protect any time soon. He was trying to learn team work… he really was even if it wasn’t yet instinctual yet… however he almost felt this holding him back… the guy clearly had no pause to make sacrifices out of the people he would work with… so it made him edgy and made him unable to trust what the guy may do.-
IlRitsuka: He watched carefully as Unaru locked his door, allowing his hand to be taken and moved freely as the Inuzuka set the familiar trap on his door. The traps had been one of the other things Ritsuka had never felt the need or desire to ask about. They actually hadn't even come as an unusual action to him, His own home in the tower itself remain sealed to prevent those who didn’t belong from entering. Just apart of being the Kage's child he supposed. He's always felt a tad coddled and knew he was always being watched over. As they began their walk down the road Ritsuka remained proudly holding the others hand his fingers interlock with unarus. He knew the comfort it brought to be with him. The other seeing himself as some sort of monster, the negative view bothered the young Uzumaki. He saw the other teen in a different light. He was patient and protective. They together had been through so much. He had been one of the two others who had been at his home the night he had unlocked his first tomoe, and had lost his sister. It was something he believed brought them closer. He listened carefully to the others response to his question. Before addressing what had been said, thinking carefully on his words.*" I agree, not the worst fighter, His technique comes off as a tad desperate . Hid additude is one that I personally find unfavorable. He shouldve introduced himself properly, but you know how it is meeting new people. All we can hope for is that he improves with time and proves a good fit for the team." He gave the other a reassuring smile. He also had been thrown off by the awkward interaction between his genin squad. He had though that Ban would be a better choice but he supposed he would only know after time. Ther wasn’t anytime to find a replacement before the chunnin exams anyways, so this would have to do for now. He squeezed the others hand and smiled again, looking round at the scenes of the busy village around them. The sound of the pups following close behind. He sighed heavily looking to his boyfriend curiously.*" You think you can hold out till The chunnin exams?"* he hoped that this did cause to many problems, his main concern was getting his team through the chunnin exams. That and finishing getting his summon so he could come back and really be home.*
UnaruInuzuka: “Hnn…” –The non committal sound had passed his lips as he was asked to hold out till the exams. The fact of the matter he knew what that comment entailed, ‘try not to get into a situation where you want to kill him till the exams’ was more to the line of thought. He wasn’t the best person, he knew he had the tendency to loose it, and as much as his Uzumaki wanted him to believe he himself isn’t some kind of monster inside he had a bloodlust that was a mile long that spoke differently in his unstable mentality. He knew he would have gone for the kill that day… he knew he wouldn’t have regretted it either, it scared him a bit inside to know this fact but it wouldn’t have changed a thing, if Ritsuka hadn’t been there to stop it he would have lost himself and been out to destroy him. Ban had been willing to blow him up and in turn kill or maim either him or his pups without blinking in a spar that was between teammates. Sure he had attacked hard and was willing to harm him also but had been keeping it civil… the other hadn’t. They had walked a bit and found himself scooping up a pouting Buruu from the ground that clearly was done with the running around. He took a slow breath and finally spoke.- “He leaves me alone I’ll leave him alone, if I am ordered to fight along side him I will but don’t expect me to like him any time soon.” –There was a sharpness in his almost monotone voice as he said this, Ritsuka knew the Inuzuka well enough to see the signs, people learnt to earn his trust or not find it in him at all, Ban had hit a cord in him that had placed him farther than most at this moment and it showed.-
IlRitsuka: He expected the reluctant response from the guarded Inuzuka. He knew the last battle wasn't something the genin was taking well. He didn’t blame him, He would react the same way if not worse if anyone had tried to seriously hurt Unaru, or his Parents. He watched as the other bend to pick up Buruu a smirk almost forming but fading quickly at the sharp response from his partner. He wasn't used to this sort of interaction will Una. He averted his gaze and continue walking along side silently for a moment. His dark red strands hanging around his face. He knew he had to let it go. What ever happened between the two would just have to be monitored. Unfortunate but apparently unavoidable at the moment. As they traveled further down the road he slowed his pace slightly, glancing at Unaru slowly before speaking in a general tone. "Lets turn back, It will still be a decent walk. I will cook us something to eat." He turned on his heel giving the other a quick smile as he bent to pick up Anry gently as he began walking back along the same path. His hands randomly petting Anry's soft fur as he slowed for Unaru to catch up with him, allowing them to walk side by side. He set Anry back down when they were a few meters away from the apartment. Just as he began to stop near the entryway of the home. A strange look would cross his face as he turned to get a final glimpse of the Inuzuka before he burst into a Murder of crows they swirled around the area of Unaru's apartment before gaining altitude and flying away from area, eventually disappearing off out of sight.
UnaruInuzuka: -He had been walking in silence with Ritsuka after his sharp reply about Ban and himself he said to his boyfriend letting the quiet linger just letting the moment between them be there for now. He turned his head to Ritsuka when he mentioned to head back home, and that the clone would make a meal for them to enjoy that day. He gave a nod of his head and with Buruu tucked close to his chest with one arm his other hand still entwined with the clones he turned to head back home. These moments of contact were there to keep him calm and connected to his boyfriend so he didn’t have his mind spinning in worry over him while he was gone. It also let them both have a little something together between any training he wished to place on the team. He watched as his Uzumaki slipped his hand from his own and picked up Anryoku who was soaked to the skin from splashing in puddles. They walked the distance that would have taken a few minutes at a good fast roof top dash would do for a good twenty at a snails pace before he watched Ritsuka put the pup down not far from his front door. Unaru had moved towards the door to remove the trap and unlock the door but his eyes caught a strange look come upon the clones face. This was when he turned around quickly only to see the clone burst into a murder of crows and split off. He stood there a moment blinking his eyes, the scent of the clone was spread, no concentration anywhere close by. At first he had hoped that he just was taking off to grab something but that look, it was as if something unexpected had come to be placed on him before the disbursal. The clone vanished, and with this fact in mind thousands of things ran in his head, was it an accidental pop? Was he out of chakra? Did he loose concentration and had it pop untimely? Was he hurt? And last but not least the worst one came to mind…Was he killed? He didn’t move from his spot a moment trying desperately to let his mind work, it took him a minute or two before he realized something, Tori had also set up a clone in the village… so that’s what he went to hunt out, dropping Buruu to the ground he closed his eyes and concentrated on his nose, even the smallest trail can lead him towards the Yamanaka of Amegakure he knew. He leapt to the roof tops the moment he caught it knowing his pups would be in his wake, his feet tapping softly on the tiles as he dashed head long into the city village. He knew where she was, she was just leaving the training fields he wouldn’t be able to miss her in the main streets near the front gates.-
Akatori2: ~Akatori stood there, head shaking side to side. She was in the heat of a training session with her genin team, Team Three. It was a rough training for them, as they did not shine so bright. The boys were all beat up and have made many rookie mistakes. She couldn't blame them though, as two were fresh out the academy. However, blame fell onto one member, A Kemono Hoshigaki. Based off his actions so far, he seemed unfit to become a shinobi, and needed more time to develop himself in the academy before he was ready for any course of action. With him leaving, a spot opened up in Team 3. ~"Well, boys. Dismissed. I expect to see a better showing from you two next time around.."~ Akatori would give them a small nod as she walked off towards the main road. She was a bit tired and needed some loosening up. She debated on taking a trip to the Hot Springs to relax, but a nap sounded good to her too. The clone though about the trip she was on, biting her bottom lip as the walked. A bit nervous for Ritsuka, she felt the need to possibly cut back on some chakra in order to give the real Akatori more to work with, but she knew it would be handled. She walked down the mainroad, footsteps rippling through puddles when he reached the General Shop. Her apartment was just upstairs and she was ready to relax, when she felt a disturbance. Shaking it off, Akatori walked inside and gave a small wave to the girl she hired to work at the shop. Not feeling very social, and knowing it was best to lay low out of the public's eye, Akatori proceeded to slip upstairs to the Apartment Complex, twisting her key into the door of her apartment. She opened the door and smiled at the feel of her warm home.~
UnaruInuzuka: -It didn’t take him long to realize Tori was heading into the general shop and if he remembered correctly she lived upstairs so he was quick on his feet. His form almost blurred in action as he finally gave into his wish to know and slammed his hands into the ram sign and body flickered from just outside the general store to just in the hall behind her door herself, he took note of her back and that the door wasn’t closed just yet. A silent sigh of relief in his form was made before he would have spoke up. He wasn’t worried about the pups they would already know his destination by the scent he was tracking and he figured as close as they were to them they could hunt him out themselves. His form paused before finally speaking up almost as soon as he had taken only a single breath after appearing there.- “Tori, what’s wrong with Ritsu?” –He knew clones would be connected to the original and had no problem being blunt on why he had come to her, if she would have turned around she would have seen maybe not in his features but his eyes having worry in them, like a child that was afraid to loose something and unsure of how to deal with this situation.-
Akatori2: ~As she took a step into the apartment, she sensed a familiar chakra flash up the hall. It was Unaru. She tilted her head when he came, a bit shocked why he came. Not many really knew that she lived above the General Store, or even that their was a row of apartments up there. However, as soon as she noticed the look of worry on the boy's face it made sense. ~ "Don't worry, he merely got the wind knocked out of him." ~She said in a pleasant tone, extending her arm out to place a hand on his shoulder. Sure, it was a white lie, but if she tried to explain it as head trauma, the genin could easily be startled and assume it was much worse. Although Akatori was still doing a field diagnosis on the situation, it was not going to be all too bad for the young Uzumaki. ~ "I'm taking care of him as we speak, he'll be better by morning at the lastest." ~
UnaruInuzuka: -Every time he has ever gone shopping his nose could catch the scent of Tori thru the second story window stronger than just passing by as if one spent much time there, a reminder of how a home seems to gain the persons scent. He didn’t talk about it, but he probably could pick up almost everyone he knew’s scent and find their homes without twitching. The fact of her scent trail also leading him right to her wasn’t a hard thing to realize either when his nose could find anyone in a quarter mile radius easily. He was silent as she spoke of it being the wind knocked out of him, his lips thinned at this analysis, he wasn’t dense like some honestly believe Inuzuka to be, however he wasn’t medically efficient either… a fact he desperately needed a little help with eventually… And with Tori considered a medical nin she knew what she was talking about… right? He took note of the hand that was soon on his shoulder, he seemed to pause the muscles in his shoulders tense both from the scare and the fact he was being touched by someone. The reaction he couldn’t help he always was a little distant from others, even if he has shown Tori, hell even Tetsuo his own group member, that he was trying to understand them better they still couldn’t touch him without seeming to question the touch itself. He hadn’t noticed his two pups finally reach him till he felt the unmistakable leaning of one against his calf. He’s being taken care of… Morning… no longer than morning. The fear seemed to dim a little but it never left there was many monsters of his past that made him quite nervous about things when it came to people he cared for… and Ritsuka was at the top of his list right now.  after a few slow breaths only noticed by the rise and fall of his chest did he finally speak up.- “Ano… Can you tell me if he gets worse or better?” –The way that was said was as if he has said this phrase before… multiple times and found it to be habit…  he blinked his eyes to clear his thoughts as he waited for her answer.- 
Akatori2: ~She kept her hand on his shoulder until she could read and sense the discomfort from the boy. He seemed tense about the situation, a bit too tense. Surely he would be worried, but after hearing he was going to be fine, that would ease him, not make him lock up more. She smiled a bit, looking down as his two ninken had joined them. Although the smell of wet dog was filling the hallway, she loved the way the youngster pups trotted around. Una seemed to be struggling with his words before asking her if he could inform the boy about if and when Rits got better. She gave him a friendly smile as she nodded slightly. ~" Of course Unaru. If I don't see you around, I'll contact you telepathicallly.."~ She would take a step for the door and pause. She was about to invite the boy in when she realized that she had not stocked up on food since the real Akatori took most of it with her on the trip.~ " Heh, my apologizes..I'd invite you in, but I haven't stocked up in quite awhile. "~ She'd take another step in before reaching for the door, a bit in a hurry to contact the real Akatori of what had recently happened. ~" Don't worry Unaru, he's going to be well soon. Was nothing major what so ever."~ Akatori waited for his replies to her remarks before giving him and the puppies a friendly way goodbye and reasurring smile.~
UnaruInuzuka: -He took the time to consider this and then paused. He knew if she seemed alright with what was going on, one of the few medical ninja's that he knew could deal with things, that he should really relax and be willing to take it to heart that Ritsuka was actually going to be fine and that Akatori will actually tell him if anything changed... He slowly sighs and gives a nod of his head and heard the comment of inviting him inside but couldn’t really do anything for him for now. He wasn't that social so he really wasn't going to push such a thing but something he had been considering for a while suddenly came to the forefront of his mind after the scare finally left his system.- "Umm... I need to ask you something else... is there any chance you could help me with some medical training... nothing major like all that chakra healing stuff... but if you have any training in poisons and herbology I would really like to know them..." -He wasn't use to asking for help in things, but with some things he has noticed there really was no other choice for him but to ask for such from someone in good training in medical for him to even comprehend what he needed to...-
Akatori2: ~She tilted her head as he asked about medical training. Why such a sudden interest in an art that was already studied by one of his teammates. Usually she would be excited when someone took an interest in Medical Ninjutsu, but she took it with a grain of salt as this could just be a heat of the moment type of thing. Why would he just be interested in poisons and herbs though? Was he planning on just being another one of those assassin types that use poisons on everything, or was he more interested in herbal healing? Akatori ponded her a moment, before giving a small shrug.~ "Of course Unaru. In time I'll be able to help you. Been a bit busy as you can tell..but eventually I'm sure we can set up a time for a series of lessons."~ She answered truthfully, not wanting to over excite the boy in case lessons didn't come until after exams.~
UnaruInuzuka: -He didn’t complain, didn’t even give a grin but that was normal for him but his eyes seemed to soften a little in gratitude and gave a nod, almost bow of his head. His interests were of both natures honestly, he wanted to be able to do something if there wasn’t a medical ninja present. The thing was he was stumped on the medical field, it felt like he was on pins and needles when it came to even trying anything in it but the herb aspect seemed to be something he could possibly understand, and well the poisons was different, he knew he could work with such a skill in many ways both in being able to know antidotes to such a deadly attack but also be able to attack with such a thing as well… He had his reasons to know this information however all of it was in the consideration of making himself a better shinobi for the village itself, if it made him a deadly assassin or someone to help if the medic is down so be it…. He gave one last nod before speaking one last time.- “Thanks, and that’s fine, I just figured since I caught you now that I could ask… Good luck on the trip.” –With that he scooped up the two pups that had settled to just sit and watch and soon body flickered out of the apartment and half way home. He still had a aching worry in him about Ritsuka himself and seemed to feel his mind constantly drift to it but he let it linger in the back of his mind, his pups were no doubt hungry and he needed to get home for such… even if he didn’t think he will be eating anything himself, not with how his guts were tight with worry.-
==End Results:==
Ritsuka's Clone disapeared. Unaru went to Akatori to see what came to be and in the end asked if she would be willing to train him in some medical skills.
