Teamwork Makes the Dream Work [Training / Mikoto / Chaoris]

It was always good to take time and hone your skills. If you sat around for too with a carefully crafted blade and didn't take the time to sharpen it every once in a while eventually it would grow dull and rusty. The same went for anything, may it be mental or physical. Yumi was one of the more self conscious people about it, given her lack of one certain important skill. To make up for it, she had to train the others especially hard. It was why, today, she had called for some of her fellow genin to participate in a bit of friendly training. Perhaps some sparring, practicing, that sort of thing.

The Kaguya picked a certain spot for this little session, a clearing by the edge of a cliff within Kiri's territory, overlooking a slim stream down at the bottom. To be frank it was a perfect spot for training, secluded and holding a variety of stuff to train off of. You could climb the cliff or practice jutsu within the water. The possibilities were endless, if you weren't afraid of heights, of course.
The only person who she knew would be coming was Mikoto, although that was more for her own comfort than anything else. Having a person she actually knew there would quell nerves of meeting unfamiliar faces, no matter how many would end up turning up. The Kaguya had posted a request on the bulletin board so she wasn't actually sure who or how many would turn up. Hopefully, with some luck, it would be more than her and the Uzumaki, although her hopes weren't particularly high given her lackluster socializing.

Yumi sat upon a bare log on this sunny afternoon as she awaited for people to arrive, sliding a rock against her blade to sharpen it a little more before they got here. The ring rang out through the forest, undoubtfully alerting anyone who may hear it to her location.

Chaoris was not picky when it came to training with others. Nearly anyone would do, so long as they were willing to try and improve and take it seriously that was. The fact that he was so willing to train with anyone was why he followed the instructions of the posting on the board that spoke of another that wanted to train with any who showed up and gave the exact location that she wanted them all to meet at. Given it had been posted on the bulletin board he was inclined to believe that Yumi meant what she had posted up, and thus he had set off after gathering all of his things so he could practice anything. "Let's go Sif. We have some training to do."

It wouldn't take long for him to arrive at the location in question. As he grew closer he would hear a ringing sound and smell a single person in the area. It was to her he would approach, though within view and not too close, with Sif in tow. "Good day, I take it we're the first to arrive?" He had all of his gear with him, of which the heavier stuff would be placed to the side for now as he waited for her response and any others that might show up.

Yumi had a bad habit of bribing, demanding, or getting Mikoto's attention and dragging her off on either a mission, training or another fantasy during Mikoto's days off. Mikoto's life was never dull, but she would enjoy some time off to read once and a while. The venture to the spot Yumi had mentioned wasn't bad, but it certainly lacked for conventional sense. A cliff face and the possibility of a spar breaking out? A bit extreme is someone took a tumble, was that Yumi's plan in the first place? No, she wasn't malicious.

Arriving at the grounds, Mikoto was surprised but not by the obnoxious sound of a blade being sharpened but because another had arrived before her. Did someone want to hang out with their brand of crazy? The dude had a dog with him as well, Mikoto hoped Yumi wouldn't come up with any bright ideas that involved the pupper. "Eh, only beat me by a few seconds looks like, but I can give you the prize for being first if you want." Mioto stated as she moved out from the brush and waved towards the new guy, and then looked towards Yumi, "So, any brilliant idea for today's schedule Yumi, or is it just a free for all?" Mikoto stated, picking one of the larger rocks to lean up against in the oddly serene landscape. Mikoto really hoped the day's activities wouldn't involve crab oil again.
