The day was early in the land of fire, the sun barely peaked it head from over Hokage mountain, casting a shadow of their heads down over the small leave hidden in the leaves. On this very morning a young member of the Hyuga clan had set out with yet another scroll aiming to teach himself another Jutsu, the young Hyuga wore his usual attire of a white tunic like shirt with bandaged legs with a slightly purple coloured kilt which kept his outfit together. His feet wore a pair of opened toed rubber shinobi typed shoes and upon his lower back a pouch which contained everything he needed. Slowly making his way to the Konoha training ground on the outskirts of the village, passing through the forest rather than the main road was said Hyuga, Dante. As he passed by the trees his shoulder was still wounded pretty badly but it wouldn’t going to stop him from getting his morning training, every time he moved it he felt the scab breaking and slight bits of blood leaking from it once more placing his hand upon it applying pressure to quickly stop the little bits of bleeding. As he appeared from the shrubbery one piece of his body at a time, looking around the area to see if anybody else was about, noticing nobody at first place he made his way to some wooden dummies, taking a stance and proceeded to pound on them, wincing a little each time he used his bad shoulder, feeling it becoming worse and worse until he took a small break but continued doing so until someone appeared at which point he’d turn and look over in their direction with a scowl on his face already being in a bad mood.

Wato : -The echo of Ryu feet hitting against the ground echoed through the streets of the village hidden in the leaf, Today was a big day for him. He finally aquired the scroll that he desired for a long time, Ryu ran towards his home and rushed through the door and quickly into his room, pulling his white training pants and black boots quickly changing his attaire accordingly, over his torso he used bandages just in case he will get hurt during training or one of his fellow genin who train in the training grounds along with him get hurt, he than opened his closet and pulled out his most prized possesion, the chakra enhanced metal guantlets he got from the weapon smith, the metal specificly designed to channel chakra through it, one of the perks of being the sweetest kid in konoha you might say, Ryu pulled the gauntlets on his arms, the leather underneath the guantlets reached over his elbows and allmost got up to his arm pits, Ryu than pulled his Konaha head band and tied it over his neck, firmly but loose enough not to choke himself, Grabbing the back of his hair and pulling it backwards and tieing it with a rubber band, making a nice pony tail, Ryu than grabbed the scroll and his bentu box and rushed off from his house, running through the streets and up the steps until he reached the training grounds of the village hidden in the leaf, he scanned the area with his eyes to see if there was anyone else, only noticing the hyuga boy from before, he didnt say much just waved his hand and opened his scroll slowly reading and memerizing each step

HarleeVanity: There was the sound of hurried footsteps as the youngest of the Hyuga House ran from the compound. In one hand was a packed breakfast for herself and for Dante while in the other was her side pouch that she simply grabbed on her way out the door. Her hair bounced off her shoulder blades as her quick steps caused her skirt to wrap about her legs and be thrown back out and out of the way. “Dante! Wait for me!” She had sad but knew it had fallen on deaf ears. The path that he had taken, she knew that he had taken a thousand times before. Then as she came to stand at the entrance to the training grounds, she slowed down and walked to where her brother had begun his training. Kneeling, she got the rest of their breakfast ready. Taking care to make sure that everything was set up and ready when he was ready to take a break. With her small companion around her shoulders, she turned and smiled to him. Taking a small finger, she’d scratch the top of his head before kissing the end of his rodent nose. “Okaasan said for you not to push your shoulder…” She said as she looked from the ferret to her older brother who was more than likely going to ignore her. However, she watched on as he trained. It was perhaps the closest that she’d ever get to him. Or that he’d allow her to be. Her eyes looked to the other boy that was in the training area and watched him for a moment. She’d never seen him before. Slowly, her eyes fanned between her brother and the other boy. She had begun to wonder if this boy would attack her as well. It seemed to have been a running trend with new people she had met.

Apparently his sibling had followed him to the training ground this morning, though recently Dante seemed to become softer, not enough to actually talk to her like a person but the recent events sure got to him. His priorities had shifted slightly, his old self would believe that he’d do anything to clear the Hyuga name from any and all slander, and this was the only thing he needed to care about, but since the death of his comrade on a mission he had a new goal, to become stronger and not to let another person die in his place. Just the thought of this made him slightly angry, thinking about how weak he was, the pain in his shoulder a reminder of how weak he actually was losing to Kei the following day. As he mulled these thoughts over his training before less training and more random acts of violence on the dummies, moving from having calm speedy jabs to have vengeful fully strenged punches. This lasted for a few seconds before turning to see that Hitomi had placed out breakfast, sighing to himself, keeping the same emotionless expression as always he moved to sit behind the tree she was near, away from her as not to look at her, taking the scroll from the pouch across his lower back, opening it and beginning to read, his eyes keeping a look out for the other male who seemed to appear.

Wato : -Ryu continued reading the scroll, going throughh it therally, every little detail he made sure he memorised to the point he can say it back piece by piece without reading, he than fell back and shouted-"Maaaan this is way harder than I imagined"- Rolling on the ground annoyed and iritated, a little frustrated things arent going his way, Ryu never was the talented kid in the bunch, but with hard work and dedication he managed to come up between the top students in his class, Ryu's gaze shifted to the young hyuga girl, he raised his body from the ground and closed his eyes smiling, as he did so he waved his left hand then returned into looking at his scroll-"Cant give up now Ryu"-he said and sighed-

HarleeVanity : Hitomi had noticed the small shift in her brother. Though she wouldn’t say it out loud, she thought it was a good thing. Her eyes watched the movements of his body. Watching his shoulder and the bit of a flinch that would come when he extended out his arm just right. “You’re going to push it too far…” She had said to herself as she raised a hand up to touch on the still healing bruising that had been around her left eye from when Kei had punched her the other day. She’d watch him come over to her and gave a soft sigh of relief. Even though the tree was between them, he was still closer to her then he had ever been on his own or willingly. Her eyes then looked up to the other boy and she smiled a bit seeing him roll around on the ground. It caught her off guard a bit to see his smile and wave. No one ever waved to her. It was normally the other way around. With a soft smile on her face, she waved back to him before looking to the tree to see if her brother had caught her.

<span style="font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">His eyes cashing back and forth over the scroll he had out in front of him, taking in all the information one bit at a time until he fully understood the Jutsu, but understanding how to do and actually doing it that was another thing as he had found out in the past. <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique was the Jutsu he was currently attempt to learn the signs read <span style="font-size:14px;font-family:Meiryo;color:#3a3a3a;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">  <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">Snake → Ram → Monkey → Boar → Horse → Tiger. He quickly stood to his feed and did said seals, whilst he did so he took a deep breath, looking away from the tree he was just sat against, kneading chakra in his stomach then infused with his breath as he exhaled upon forming the Tiger seal and holding it to his mouth, blowing the air out over the seal. Upon the air leaving his mouth he expected a foot wide fireball to extend from his mouth slowly growing as it traveled and he blew more chakra filled air into it, but to his surprise nothing but a small flicker of fire appeared that quickly fizzled out, he felt quite exhausted for some reason, though Jutsu wasn’t a hard one but maybe he was overdoing it. After the failed attempt at the Jutsu Dante quickly turned to Hitomi and spoke in a clear crisp voice “Friend of yours? He’s probably got food too, I seen him here yesterday, go eat with him and let me train.” Attempting to sound like his normal self but seemingly failed, he began to a walk away from the tree back towards the dummies to attempt to the jutsu once more.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:#f8cd46;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">HarleeVanity <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">: She looked up to her brother and shook her head softly. “I don’t know him...” She said softly as she’d raise her hand up and offer him a pork bun. “… and I’m just trying to spend some time with you…while staying out of your way.” But the movement of the boy caught her eye and she turned to see him coming towards them. A small but warm smile crossed her lips hearing the boy speak. He was like she was. Shy but excited. She wondered if he was like that with everyone that he met. She smiled and waved to him once more as she moved to keep her ferret companion from trying to eat the pork bun that she was offering her brother.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">He’d ignore the offer of the pork bun walking away from the two, ignoring the boy too. “If you two want to do something, then fight, train. I’m ready when you are, if not just leave the training ground and go do other things.” Walking towards the dummies but stopping half way to look behind him at the other two, if they followed he’d lead them to an open part of the training ground and turn to face them, waiting for one of them to make the first move if they wanted to train with him. He wasn’t about to “Teach” them anything but he’d fight with them if anything it’d help him more to learn a jutsu against a moving target rather than the dummy. If they didn’t follow him he’d return to the training dummies to start pounding them once more.

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">-Ryu Rolled his eyes-"Why everyone are so angry all the time?"-he whispered under his breath, he hated the idea of fighting without a purpose-"I just need a pointer"-he said and turned-"I guess its to much to ask from the mighty hyuga to help a fellow genin out"-he said and lowered his head as he started heading back to the spot he left his scroll and bentu at-"ILL DO IT ON MY OWN THEN"-He shouted as he kept walking away, some may call him coward because he decided to avoid the fight, but being raised by his older brother, he caught the ideals of avoiding any conflict as much as it take, not to harm anyone without a cause, and espcially if its a fellow leaf village shinobi0

<p dir="ltr" style="line-height:1.38;margin-top:0pt;margin-bottom:0pt;"><span style="font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:#f8cd46;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">HarleeVanity <span style="font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:#000000;font-weight:400;font-variant:normal;text-decoration:none;vertical-align:baseline;white-space:pre-wrap;">: She lowered the food offered and sighed softly. The sound of the boy’s voice didn’t go unnoticed as she heard him speak and lowered her eyes to the ground. Her thought of spending some time with Dante was once more nothing like what she had hoped. She should have been used to this by now. But still she’d hope and try. One day, it might be different. At least he wasn’t looking down at her or calling her a disgrace. She’d look up to the boy that was walking away and focus on her chakra. With the water behind her, she’d continue to focus until two water spindles came to be floating in the air near her. With her continued focus, she let them fly towards the boy’s stuff. Not to harm him but to simply get his attention. If it had worked, she’d look to him and tilt her head towards her brother in an attempt to urge him to follow after him. She then picked up her book and opened it up to where she had left off. Holding her book open on her knees, she brought the pork bun up to her mouth and began eating silently while looking up to see what was going on every now and again.

<span style="font-size:16px;font-family:Arial;color:rgb(0,0,0);font-weight:400;white-space:pre-wrap;">Noticing Hitomi’s attack Dante didn’t have time to waste on the boy but instead just stayed at the dummies, weaving the hand signs for the jutsu he wanted, attempting to fire another fire ball this time at the dummy. As he inhaled as before, and exhaled, trying to keep a steady flow of air escaping his lungs, the air ignited, lending a small yet self sustaining fire ball towards one of the dummies, this making Dante a little excited although you couldn’t tell from looking at him, the excitement forced him to push more into it, a little too much as the fireball fizzled out before it even made it to the target. Again another failed attempt, he caught his breath, though it didn’t seem to take as much out of him this time, the only thing he could do was attempt a third try, this time he attempting to feed it enough chakra to sustain but also keep an even amount of flames. This time not aiming for the targets but up into the air above him, breathing the fire like a dragon, it was ever do it or get burnt, upon breathing in another time, and exhaling a fireball shot into the sky, a trail of fire lead from his mouth sustaining the fireball and as he stopped the fireball burst into a flaming mess, letting bits of flame fall around Dante, Dante putting them out as they fell on him.
