Yui Meets Rin[Rin]

Yui had met a lot of people recently and now that her body had recovered from the gates she had begun to study ways to make her body stronger. She read many theories but the biggest one was she had to eat a lot more and lift heavy amounts of weights to put on the muscle mass needed to handle the stress of the gates, a thin frame like her own using them caused a great deal of damage. She was now heading out to find a place to pile in the food, though she would need to get used to this eat a ton of food thing.

As she made her way to a closeby ramen shop she would step inside and look for the ramen with the most protein something she needed to build muscle it seemed. She would calculate the cost as she wanted to faint thinking of spending that much Ryo on one meal but this is what she had to do to build up her body.

"I would like twelve bowls of the meat extreme ramen, I know this may seem like a lot but I need to add muscle mass through consumption of a lot of protein."

The man would look her up and down and give her a concerned look, he could only imagine her getting super sick and vomiting all over but she placed the money so what else could he do. He would begin to prepare the food as the first bowl was set down in front of her, she was quite hungry from her day of training with Kanna so she would begin to scarf down the meal in a shockingly short amount of time.

Being tired after a long morning of training is a normal occurrence for Rin especially when it becomes a daily thing. The frequent pings of hunger is also another thing that Rin knows all too well. A certain someone would say that it is a bit unhealthy to eat ramen since while it quickly fills the stomach, but it is quick to process. However just getting something in his system is better than nothing. Luckily his favorite spot is open today, and as per usual there is someone sitting down at the stall. Most of the time it is somebody different, but other times it’ll be another regular to this place.

However this customer possessed long blonde hair, perhaps it is just Rin’s imagination, but she reminded the boy of his older squad mate. His sharp eyes noted how she quickly consumed her bowl of ramen out of impulsive hunger. Rin chose to sit on a stool about two seat down from Yui before she got her hands on the second bowl. The chef was quick with his work and serving bowls as quickly as he could.

“I’ll take the usual. The second bowl is for takeout.” Rin spoke to the chef who looked over his shoulder before presenting a warm smile.

“Ah, it is good to see you back Rin. Enjoyed your mission to Tanzaku Town?” Without skipping a beat he tossed the noodles with the pan and mixed it with lots of protein and diced vegetables. The boy only dipped his head in response as he was exceptionally tired today. His elbows propped on the wooden polished counter as the mouth-watering aroma reaches his nostrils.

“It was your first mission wasn’t it?” The chef was a bit nosy for sure, but Rin didn’t really mind it too much.

“Indeed. Though i am afraid i can’t say more than that.” Rin shifted his tired, hazel blue-green eyes over at Yui as the man chuckled and went back to cooking.

“Are you… perhaps related to the Kotoshura family?”

Yui would suddenly hear the boy next to her talk as she finished her bite quickly and drank some tea. She would nod at his question before she would begin to scarf down some more food, he likely was in a squad with her brother, she wondered how long he would be gone on his mission as she missed her brother being around.

"You likely had been on my brother's squad for the mission, I am of the Kotoshura clan though we have vastly different ideas how to use our bloodline. You see I am heavily Taijutsu focused where he will likely use the clay much more than I ever would. Sadly I cannot do any practice for a couple of days the price to pay for opening gates, thankfully Kanna had healed my wounds to make it faster."

She would go back to scarfing down her food, as she would motion for a third bowl but she was starting to feel a bit full, still she had to learn to eat much more food to build out her bodies muscles and also add weight to her thin frame, if she ever wanted to truly be a gate master and use her bloodline like she planned this is what it would take.

Rin listened to what the girl was saying, but he was focusing on the part where she said ‘brother’. The boy never pictured Taichi to have siblings since when Rin first met him Taichi was more like a lone wolf during training. Guess one can’t really know everything in the first encounter.

“So wait… you’re his little sister?” Of course, now that Rin thinks on it he never asked about Taichi’s family nor has anyone asked Rin about the Uchiha. The chef places the bowl of ramen with steam rolling off from the noodles. It held a mixture of meat and diced vegetables in a hearty broth. Grabbing his pair of chopsticks and taking them apart Rin says something else.

“To be honest i’ve never seen Taichi use his bloodline, or if he has then it was under discretion that my senses couldn’t pick up.” Which was unlikely because anyone especially using ninjutsu or advanced level of physical effort Rin picks up on those spikes without really trying.

“Like right now… you have the earth chakra element do you not?” It was nearly a passive thing, but Rin activated his sensory to familiarize Yui’s signature. While he was at it Rin searched for an element within her body and gets the doton chakra within her frame. Of course Yui did say that she was recovering from using gates which rose a bit of concern from him.

“You’re being taught about the Eight Gates? How far did you get if you don’t mind me asking?” If Yui answers or doesn’t Rin will take a couple bites from the ramen. It certainly was tasty and worth the walk to here.

She was not surprised did not talk about her the pair while they cared for each other were sort of at odds at the moment. She was a bit surprised he had yet to show his bloodline off, Yui had shown it in quite flashy ways even, so she wondered if he was hiding it as a trump card or if he just lacked being able to use it like herself. He asked her if she had earth element and she would nod her head yes, despite not often using ninjutsu she had the ability to if she so desired, it was just not her main focus. He would ask about the eight gates as a smile would cross her face setting down her fourth finished bowl of noodles, she would hold up two fingers but prepared to tell him she can go three if she truly wanted at any time. She was quite sure she could hit five given enough time to train her body correctly, but she had a lot to train and using gates made her unable to train her other things.

"I am not shocked he does not talk about me we butt heads a lot these days despite the fact I worry about him a lot. I do have Doton, but I rarely use ninjutsu as my bloodline lets me combine it with taijutsu making quite a powerful force. I have opened two but I can easily open three more if I so desired but the strain it puts on my current frame is a bit much. I need to focus on putting weight and muscle mass first before pushing myself to that extreme. My brother, I think plans to go our clan's traditional route and using the clay where my plan is to use it in combination with taijutsu doesn't go as far but the damage is still massive."

She would begin to work on the fifth bowl as her stomach felt so full, but she had to push herself hard in order to put on the weight needed to build into muscle. She likely looked crazy as her small frame began to have a rather large bulge where her belly was, almost made her look pregnant.

It sounds like… Yui and her brother doesn’t get along that much. What could have caused it that made them distance from each other? Rin thought of this as Yui patiently answered each of his questions. He did bombarded her with questions, and possibly personal ones too. Yet she was inclined to answer before she finished her fourth bowl. When she started to work on her fifth Rin had to say something.

“Eating a good amount if fine, but you also need to allow your body to process the food that is already in your system. Put too much and it’ll forcefully eject the contents to make room…” Was it too much to say? Rin isn’t going to judge anyone who can put away some food, but he noticed from small frame that her stomach was starting to bulge. “Slow down for now, drink something, and allow your body to process it.” Of course it was a suggestion for it was Yui’s choice whether or not to keep eating or not. However she is still recovering and overstuffing herself might not be a good thing.

“If you don’t mind me asking, but what exactly caused you and your brother to disagree so much?” A distraction, perhaps getting a story out of her will maybe give Yui some time to preoccupy if she listens to what Rin is saying.

She heard him mention eating slower as she wanted to laugh, no she had to eat lots of food in order to put on the weight needed for gates as well as the muscle mass she would convert from it. He was lecturing her on slowing down and drinking water, she had already planned to slow down as she finished her fifth bowl. As for why she and her brother did not get along, it was simply a lot of jealousy on his side and the fact she was praised all the time by the clan and he had not been.

"I know how to control my body well enough to eat food, I may look young but I am sixteen years old. As for why my brother and I do not see eye to eye, we have different visions of how to make the clan strong, mine is using Blasttai and he is using the actual clay. I am also praised all the time by the clan whereas he is often criticized and called lazy, he really isn't but I can't help what they say. I guess that's why we fight because he doesn't like the fact I am praised and seen in higher regard than he is, I do not care though I will become the strongest of my bloodline and someday I will become the Hokage."

She would begin to drink some tea before starting her sixth bowl but it was clear she was slowing down her pace. She was not sure if she could finish this amount she ordered but no way she would not try.

To find out that a cut- coughs young girl like Yui was sixteen comes to a surprise to Rin. Mainly because he assumed she was around his age, but today was a lesson that looks can be deceiving. Yui didn’t really seem to like being told what to do, but despite that she did take heed and slow down for now to drink tea. As Yui was explaining what might have caused the rivalry Rin could relate to that. His kin are always famous for the sharingan, and Rin is pretty sure his entire squad are eager to know if Rin ever unlocks it or not. Yet when it came to blades as a genin Rin is the best so far in swordplay.

“I see. Well maybe it isn’t really so much as praise that might be the trigger. It could be that you already have developed the ability to use the bloodline in such a unique way probably caused Taichi find it hard to protect you. I mean, I’m not gonna sit here and say i know everything about Taichi. But i know enough that Taichi protects his loved ones to the best of his ability. Perhaps seeing you progressing so far so quickly made him evaluate the changes?” Rin suggested before he starts eating some more of his ramen. Leaving his words to hang over Yui for just a couple of moments.

“Like for example, say you were trying to become strong to protect Taichi, but up until recently it has always been just him protecting you. Some people can adapt rather quickly to this change, but to others it’ll take some time. Of course mixing your gift in taijutsu is quite interesting and will definitely make an impression. Gates on top of that? Give it time and you’ll be a powerful kunoichi.”

When he spoke she realized that likely was the reason, he had always protected him and now she had no need for it he felt lost. She had become stronger and because of this, he had become the protected instead of the protector. When he mentioned she would become strong more than likely her face gained a wide grin, of course, she would become strong, possibly the strongest shinobi in all of Konoha.

"You may be right, he may feel weak now because I have surpassed him in strength, still I am sad we have grown apart of the last two years. I love my brother very much even if he doesn't speak about me much I think he also cares for me a great deal. Thank you for helping me figure out my issue with him sadly I think I am done here, I am far too full to eat more but ten bowls is a good start."

She would stand as her belly looked like she was six months pregnant rubbing her belly she made sure to pay before heading out of the door. It was nice to meet someone her brother knew, but things for her would be changing soon since she had little idea just how much her life would change soon.

Rin would only present a smile as Yui concluded what was the issue. In the end he can tell that Yui still cares for Taichi and maybe was now aware of the change within her. “Of course. I only hope that you two can overcome this obstacle in a good way.” The boy left it at that as Yui paid the chef for the food. Little did Rin know how things will quickly twist in the near future. Still Rin would proceed to finish his bowl before the chef handed him a box that held the other food.

“Your mom working late again?” The chef asked as Rin was producing the ryo from his pouch. “More than likely. Even if she's already home I know she gets tired to move around much. Plus if she already ate then she can take it with her tomorrow for lunch.” The man chuckled after hearing Rin's explanation. Rin said his farewells before picking up the box and leaving for the Uchiha complex.
