Sato was a bit surrpised by the rather abrupt way he was dismissed. Almost like a puppy the power hungry man followed after the Elder, and he found a small smile curling across his lips. Already it seemed the Elder had chosen, and surely they would want one of the clans best. He knew that was what Eito-sama was here for. He was well known for finding the best individuals, and Sato was proud that his son Daiki would soon be in a prestigious position. There was already a gathering around the training area, as often happened whenever Daiki tried to unlock the Dekisokonai.

His eyes leveled on the field as the pride started to swell in his chest, and then crashed with a gasp that echoed through the clan members present. "Honorable Elder, that is the Dekisokonai, she is wholly unsuited for your honorable presence. Please, any other clan member, I beg you. It would do us great dishonor for her to besmirch your presence with her inadequacies." Sato said as he stepped forward. "The only thing she is fit for is being made into an honorable Lady wife for somoene of station."

Daiki on the other hand was on attention almost immediately as the individuals stepped into his field of sight. He stayed stock still when one kept him from his sister, watching with an assessing gaze. Unlike his father, he was more calculating, but he found himself cocking his head to the side. "Father, wait." He said as he extended his hand, a look of sincerity on his face - one that did not reach his eyes. His smile was sweet, but his eyes held something else. "Sister, it seems that this Honorable Elder sees something that we do not. So please, go with him." He said as he swept a bow. "It seems you are Dekisokonai no more."

Kumiko was confused, even as she struggled to pull herself up from the ground. Above her was a man that was well known, one of the ones that she would need to await and answer from to begin her Specialization Research. She found a flush covering her cheeks, her lavender hair half fallen from it's messy bun. She was struggling to get up, but the way she had been pushed off balance, her lack of proper recent sleep, and her lack of proper physical prowess was making it difficult.

She stared up at the man in confusion, her teeth snagging her lower lip as she dropped the training kunai and took his hand. Lifting her up would be exceedingly easy, given how little she weighed. As she stood she drew her other hand towards her chest and bowed over his hand, shaking a little from exertion and fear of the moment. She was no idiot, though she was no shinobi, she knew the whispers and the power of those there. At least from the way others seemed to fear them. "Thank you, Honoroable one." She whispered, her voice shaking.

She slowly straightened, as the confusion started to lace her features. Looking over towards Daiki as he called her sister, which had not happened since she was quite small. Still her teeth kept her lower lip caught, as she twitched the fingers of the hand on her chest. She was slowly regaining proper breathing, and she adverted her gaze as she spoke. Her entire posture, to the astute observer, was nothing but submissive towards the members of her clan. "Daiki-sama, tha-thank you." She said her voice shaking. But there was still confusion in her tone.

"Honorable one, what do you seek me for?"
