PT -- Good for me, Good for you

Oh boy... another summons by Lady Hokage... He was nervous, as was his wont, but this time was slightly different. This was not to discuss the Chuunin Exams nor the realities of some obscure cosmic horror (which the young Uchiha was still trying to forget); no, this was about training. He had only come to appreciate it in the last few months, but god damn did he come to enjoy it!

As he arrived at the facility, he was a little disappointed that there would be a floor instead of the nice dirt that was available outside, but that was fine. Dressed in his ever-present orange haori, his hair unkempt, and carrying both of his swords, Natsuki climbed the stairs and met the seated Hokage. As he did so, he began to sense for signatures, but only one was to be found. He was the first to arrive.

"Lady Hokage," he started, with a respectful bow, though his voice betrayed a certain unease at the awe of her station.

"Shadow after seeing the hokage annoncement thought well i will have a lot of personn might be a good opportunity to try to know other uchiha… just hoping that not to much person will talk to me i hate people and by the time he finish is tought he arrive at the training ground "

"He just try to recognise the person wich he did successfully for the two that are present by that time "

« Then he sit quietly in meditative state to work on is chakra control »

As she leaned back, Natsuki realized that he had never seen the Hokage from this angle, was she always this cute?

"Oh, hi Natsuki,"

He blushed as he turned his head anywhere else; the walls, why not. He raised his arm up and scratched at the back of his head while she continued to speak. He hadn't really thought about whether or not the swords would be part of these exercises- like the rest of his attire, it was autopilot. "Oh!" His voice cracked slightly and he cleared his throat reflexively. "Oh, of course! I'll just leave them over here." As he spoke, he walked over to the corner furthest from the doors and laid them down.

He would be keeping a keen eye on them. As he walked away, he turned a 180 while walking backwards, observing the surrounding area. He noted the windows(?) and any other potential avenues that would be thieves might utilize before turning back towards the Hokage and returning to her.

"So what kind of training is it, exactly?" He asked earnestly, trying very hard to maintain eye-contact. It was then that he noticed Shadow arriving, and he'd give a wave to his training partner. "Oh, hey Shadow!"

[OOC: We can consider this thread to be after our other training topic, Shadow, so we can know one another.]

Being in the village Burittsu couldn’t help but wonder why the announcement was made yet it gave him an opportunity to meet more interesting characters. Appearing in his usual set of armor the blue haired Yuki had nothing to do but train until it was time for the search indeed he’d take any sort of activity. With two golden rings one placed upon each respective hand the Yuki had nothing more to say besides hearing out the situation. Walking in the atmosphere itself would cool down just from the presence of the shinobi yet to him he wished the sun wasn’t always glaring down upon his skin. Thinking back even Blitz didn’t seem to care much for the atmosphere of other places yet he took on the heat.

Compared to other places this heat that he currently felt was nothing but a little warmth. Studying everyone besides their Hokage it seemed meeting new people indeed was the task at hand but seeing what this was all about would be more interesting. He wondered how many shinobi would attend this grand event sitting down upon the grass of the land by himself. Burittsu gave himself a good amount of distance from the others as he ran his hand through the grass, his cold touch freezing some of the blades of grass he touched.

Minding his business until it was time Burittsu didn’t say a word to anyone remaining observant of the grass and the nature around him. Returning back to Konoha only meant the wheels have started rotating now was the game of patience and understanding something he was needed for if he was ever going to start such a difficult mission. Yet he had time to learn once more what made this body react and what type of beast he needed to truly become to understand the mindset of Blitz.

What he didn’t realize was that he slipped away subconsciously for a brief moment living in the memories of Blitz before resurfacing. There was no grass. He as lost and angered at the fact he couldn’t understand how his could enjoy the love of combat to the point his body does it regardless of his decisions. At the most unexpected times during a fight. The mysteries indeed began to grow a lot more questions needed a lot more complicated answers.

There was a spring to her step as Sera walked to the grand training facility. The weather was beautiful and she had caught a fresh rabbit this morning for breakfast. It didn’t look like there were many clouds in the sky and the day overall just seemed to be starting off great! All of that being said though, Sera was the most excited about the summons she got to train with the Hokage and other leaf ninja. The blond kunoichi wore her hair in a ponytail and she sported a purple tank top with black gym shorts. As she approached the building she could hear people talking from the fourth floor. With a mischievous grin, Sera would jump onto the side of the building; using chakra to stick to the exterior, and would walk straight up to the fourth floor. She would look for a window and see a couple of people she recognized! With a swift motion, Sera would open the window and jump through, landing with a fun little summersault.

“Hello everyone! Wonderful day isn’t it?” She would say with a smile.

Drakon was just minding his own business and having a smoke when a announcement came over the speakers saying to come to the grand training facility for some training. Exhaling the smoke drakon grinned a devilish grin as he began to make his way towards the grand training facility. As he arrived he walked up to tye 4th floor where every one else was already at and drakon noticed a few people standing around.

He saw the hokage standing around in sweat pants and a tank top. She was looking very cute but even drakon was not stupid enough to hit on the strongest person in the village. there was also two uchihas and a ninja that was not part of tye hidden leaf.

Drakon arrived in the same clothes he always had, he had a pair of black cowboy boots with a red pair of pants. He wear a red jacket with studs on it with the front of the jacket opened showing off his great physical condition. He had short silver hair that spiked back with a bang flowing in the front of his forehead. He had blood red eyes with a slit for a pupil and his canine tooth looked like a vampires.

" My my my, what a lively crowd we have here. "

Drakon said as he blew a puff of smoke into tye air as he put out his cigarette.

This seemed to be an order. It wasn’t that Nakaba was unsure if the words themselves held the order or not. He was simply taken aback by the use of the announcement system to call all of these ninja to the training grounds. He had found it weird that there were so few missions available today. Nakaba had taken a rare day to sleep in today. With a start he would wake up to the announcement, and quickly shuffle through for some appropriate clothes.  He’d grab a pair of red shorts, a maroon shirt with the Brass Tacks emblem on the front (a sun on an anvil), and the newest pair of Hue Balances (Imported from Kirigakure the are rainbow colored sneakers). As he began to calm down he quickly fell into his routine. He’d grab inherent balance on his way out, strapping the blade to his hip.

Strolling in just behind Drakon, Nakaba would respond to the genin. “I don’t think we’ve met. I’m Nakaba.” Nakaba seemed unfazed by the smoke as he was talking. “The Hokage called. It better be lively.” Nakaba spotted two of the other Konoha 7 nodding at them and his kage as he entered. He would wait for instruction to begin. Until he would try and start small talk with Drakon noticing his exposed chest. “Do those get cold?” Nakaba casually pointed to his abs before realizing how inappropriate his statement was.

"Probably be for the best to keep them on you. Might be a bit annoying but better than someone knicking your weapons,"

"Heh," he chuckled. She was right, of course. How could he have been so stupid? Well, he knew how, but it was embarrassing. As he began to walk back over to the swords, he heard the Hokage complain about someone and, turning to see her complain about that man he had seen on the beach sparring with Nao. "Well, fuck..."

As he picked up his weapons, Sera came right through the window! ""Oh, Sera, Hey!" He'd wrap them back into his belt with a smile on his face as he greeted her. When he turned around and caught another glimpse of the ice cold man from the beach, however, his smile faded. "Watch out for that one," he continued, lowering his voice as he leaned close to Sera, "I don't trust him."

Another stranger showed up as he made his way back towards the Hokage with his friend, this one dressed much more flamboyantly than the others. Natsuki couldn't help but give a slight shrug, this whole thing seemed to attract a strange crowd. In, too, walked Nakaba, and Natsuki gave him another nod.

He didn't have much else to say, so he simply began to stretch. His loose clothes offered him much mobility, though the swords that clambored at his hip were less than ideal.

Details:

Hyde had recently graduated from the Konoha Ninja Academy and had taken his post up as an official Genin in the village's armed forces. Since then, he had been kept rather busy with activities such as standard Genin missions, assisting his parents in running their ever-expanding business conglomerate, and of course, his auto-didactic studies including his mad science research. However, there came a break in this routine he had fallen into as of late, with that being a summons from none other than the current Hokage herself, a woman called "Airi Ohara". The contents of the summons scroll that one of his maids had brought to him when she had come down to his research lab in the basement of his family mansion to wake him up now told him that he had to head over to the "Grand Konoha Training Facility" to join the Hokage and a group of other Leaf ninja in some sort of mass training exercise.

Therefore, Hyde thanked the maid and dismissed her before dragging himself out from underneath the giant pile of jutsu research notes, puppet blueprints, and other items that he had somehow fallen asleep under without realizing it the previous night. Once that was done, he quickly readied himself for the occasion by completing his daily rituals and then donned one of his more casual outfits rather than his usual panoply of personal protective equipment and formal clothes that comprised his physician-scientist attire. Said casual outfit ended up being a loose, white muscle tee on top of equally comfort-fitting sweatpants with both of these having all the usual properties of clothing that were meant for use in physical exertion scenarios like the one he was going to be attending soon.

With that done, Hyde informed his support staff of maids and butlers of his intended whereabouts for the day and then headed off toward the "Grand Konoha Training Facility". Upon arrival, he entered the building and was summarily directed to the fourth floor where a sizeable group of people had already gathered near the Hokage, presumably to hear her instructions and to begin whatever exercises they were going to be doing in this training session. Thankfully, he entered just when she was giving out her instructions, so he went to work heeding them by joining the roughly circular arrangement of other Leaf ninjas and one foreign ninja that had been arranged with her in the middle of it all. After taking up his position, he ensured to greet the Hokage first before doing anything else so that he could maintain his carefully developed facade of being a proper, upstanding citizen of the Leaf Village

"Greetings and salutations, Hokage-sama...I apologize for the delay in my arrival...I had been engrossed thoroughly in my research and had lost track of time until I noticed your summons. I am here now, though, and am ready to participate in this training session you have set up for us here today."

Hyde spoke thus to Airi in greeting and bowed to her briefly as a show of respect before falling silent and doing the light stretches that she had instructed the group to get into first before the actual physical training began.

Burittsu saw the others arrived yet he minded his business only studying them from afar before their Kage and his host called them into a circle. His cold presence was enough to disturb them if they allowed but Burittsu was only there to train and handle the enemies of his allies if need be. Yet on this day whatever the training routine seemed to be the results of the shinobi slacking and not being serious.

Burittsu could only chuckle a little as he watched around, seeing new faces and a couple familiar faces. Regardless he had nothing to say unless spoken to his mind wandered endlessly thinking of how the boy tried his best to belong to the usual groups of people. Watching the others stretch as it seemed everyone had five minutes to get themselves prepared for whatever training the Hokage had ready for them.

Watching each individual before chuckling to himself he only made sure to pay attention to what was being said. Leaning in and stretching his legs Burittsu had no concern for anything else but his limbs making sure he didn’t pull a muscle or anything else. Gazing at one person then the next, each was there for their own purpose and nothing more or less Burittsu could only wait in silence. His mind roaming the world around him seeing what he saw but more.

More folks strolled in through the normal door as Sera walked over next to Natsuki and prepared for training. She would greet each person with a smile and a wave as they entered the room. It was exciting to see several new people that she didn’t recognize! Natsuki made a quiet comment about one man in particular that gave him a weird feeling. Sera didn’t think that she knew him, but if Natsuki was alert then she would at the very least keep an eye out. Until he had proven himself a threat, she would act friendly. There was no need to assume that they were up to no good just because they were a stranger after all.

The hokage instructed them to get into a circle and begin to stretch; explaining that she wanted them to get together for a community training session. Airi specifically called out Sera and thanked her for wearing appropriate clothing. Sera happily complied with her instructions and helped form the circle. She would then begin to stretch in her workout attire, watching everyone else as she did so. There were many people there that donned full combat gear which she understood, but it seemed that this wasn’t the time for that type of training.

With so many different people and different personalities in one room, Sera would give a little cheer to encourage everyone as they were about to start. “Let’s do our best everyone!”

As drakon stood there another ninja walked over to where he was and introduced him self a Nakuba. He noted that the hokage called them all here it was sure to get lively.

" No I don't think we have, I'm Drakon. If we can get a few more ladies here I'm sure it can get even more lively."

Drakon said as he chuckled and grinned while talking to nakuba. That was when he asked him if his abbs ever got cold. Drakon could see how some might think that and yeah at times they did.

" Well I would be lying if I said no. But it's a price to pay to be this good looking for the ladies."

Drakon said as he began to stretch by taking his hand and grabbing his other hand and bending side ways then done it the other way as well.

Nakaba would earnestly listen as Drakon explained smiling at his ‘for the chicks’ style, chuckling along side the other ninja. With a deep inhale Nakaba would circle up as ordered beginning to stretch with everyone else. Lady Hokage would reprimand half the group for their dress or bringing weapons. This happened every time, but Nakaba felt like it was good for his image. Being one with your sword started with people perceiving you as one with your sword, right? He’d close his eyes and begin doing a series of standing and sitting stretches to target all of the muscle groups he knew how as he could feel his tepid blood begin to heat up.

« Shadow do the the 30 jumping jack with difficulty » why this always physical training… mental is better…

OCC: 150 xp gain

Jumping jacks? But wouldn't that mean...

And there it was. Natsuki watched in awe of the Hokage's... let's call it "physical form" as she conducted the exercise. She got about 5 jumps in before the young Uchiha shook his head and snapped himself out of it. He hoped his being late to start would go unnoticed but, as he began to do them himself, the clanging of his weapons on his hilt would do little to keep a low profile.

For fuck's sake, Natsuki...

Hyde took a brief respite from the multi-directional stretching he had been doing to give a respectful nod to Airi as she waved at him, acknowledging his presence in their group. Then, he returned his focus to the next task she gave the group, namely doing a brief jumping jacks session where the goal was to do at least 30 reps.

So far, so good...My body can keep up with these exercises despite my relatively low stamina and aversion to physical activity outside my Gentle Fist training which I only engage in due to my academic interest in its mechanics...

Hyde thought silently as he started doing the jumping jacks and managed to complete 30 repetitions successfully while letting his eyes roam about the group and trying to memorize the faces of each of his peers and betters from the village since he would probably be working with them at some point or another on missions and the like.

Watching everyone follow the lead of their leader Burittsu studied each of them closely from the one who started a little bit later due to some rather expected distractions. To the others who would soon be taking this physical training themselves it was a simple task asked of everyone this was a good way to see the next generation for himself. Burittsu chuckled at the thought of it all before reaching for the skies completing his own stretching before closing his eyes and starting the advised session slowly doing each jumping Jack.

Stretching each part of his body as far as he could while doing jumping jacks was the only way forward. He minded his business like always and continued until completing the thirty that was requested from him by the Hokage. The sound of clanking came from one of the shinobis weapons; it wasn't loud but a light touch to the atmosphere.

As per her leader's instructions, Sera would follow suit and begin to perform jumping jacks. The electrical impulses that constantly passed through her body helped move her body in the exact ways that she wanted it to. So each jump and movement would seem almost robotically perfect and uniform to each other. While she had been focusing on getting her form down perfect, there seemed to be a bit of commotion with some of the other genin. Sera would chuckle to herself about the scenario, but mind her own business. If someone looked over to her while she was jumping, she would give them a wide smile as she continued to jump. After she finished she would look to her workout mates and do a mini pump of her fist. Sera would then turn to Airi cheerfully. "Alright! On to the next one!"

After he had completed his set of stretching the hokage asked all of the shinobi there to do 30 jumping Jack's. This was gonna be a fairly easy task for Drakon so he instantly began to do them. He was tho a little distracted by the way the hokages body moved especially her upper half. But he would be slick not to let her notice that he was looking, it took him maybe a minute or two but he got the 30 jumps in, there was a slight noise happening as they was all jumping and looking around Drakon noticed that it was just the swords on that long haird boys side clanking together as he jumped.

Once he was all warmed up, he go with the flow. Next Lady Hokage asked for thirty jumping jacks. He would reclip his sword, so that it’d be a little steadier. It now rested on his butt instead of his hip. Should be fine. Counting in his head, he’d begin jumping jacks. He wasn’t going particularly fast, but that wasn’t really the point, right. Bounce. Bounce. Bounce. His sword kept bumping into his butt, and Nakaba got a little annoyed, a small vein popped up on his brow. His annoyance was balanced by seeing his fellow shinobi sweat. It made his heart warm.
