Houfu Gouken Spa (Bountiful Health)

[Chuunin Examiner]

.:Houfu Gouken Spa:.

A health and spa clinic, one will enter to find the warming atmosphere of the spa to immediately begin to calm their senses. Stepping up to the front desk, they will find that this spa has offered its services to the Chuunin Exams this year as well. For the small fee of 500 RYo per visit, a traveler will have complete access to any of the Spa's services. Bathing rooms will be seen to the left or right of the front desk, and the assistant will direct you to your appropriate room. Otherwise, two doorways, also on either side of the desk, will lead to other rooms within the spa.

Following the tiled paths, one will find, scattered amongst the floor of the massive room, several mud baths for one to rest themselves within. Around those are also placed hot tubs, with many tables being set up around the area for massages and the like. To the left, one will see a door to a small sauna, and to their right, one will see bathrooms for one to use for whatever purpose. Towel racks are also placed around the area, and a pool is located in the back of the spa for swimming. Another room at the left of the spa is a room where one can get pedicures or manicures, as well as special massages that are used to relax the muscles and mind. These special massages cost an extra 100 Ryo, as they are more effective than that of the regular ones offered about the main room.

A secondary room offered at the right also provides certain medical practices that are said to soothe the body. An example of the several services provided here would be acupuncture, and many other services are offered as well. This room is the area to go to when you have high blood pressure, allergies, ailments, or disabilities for whatever reason. Facials, wraps, and other services are also located in this room where it is not otherwise provided. This is a more high-class spa compared to the spa offered at the Hotel's of Sea Country, as it contains more professionals than the Hotel would. It is generally preferred to come to this establishment rather than the Hotel.

After the mentally taxing first exams, the Hanakora felt drained from the difficult questions she had to answers. Where they the right answers? It would be embarrassing if she were to lose in the first round…her entire country would be let down. All the worrying was getting to her…she needed to relax. Hotaru found herself in the luxury spa recommended by the examiners to find some peace and quiet. After paying her fees, the receptionist escorted the kunoichi to a hotspring. Small tea candles floated in the crystal clear water, and the tubs were tiled with small aquamarine stones. Stripping her clothes and wrapping herself a plush towel, her problems melted away as she stepped into the almost too hot water. Closing her eyes in bliss, she held her breath and submerged her whole body in the healing embrace of spring. A few bubbles of air escaped her lips as the tender stroke of undine’s fingers ran through her hair. Lifting her head back into the air, her eyes remained closed as she simply relaxed in the spring.

The pungent aroma of scented candles and rubbing oils filled Issacs nostrils, the smell bothered him a little it was unnatural compared to the fresh air of the grassy plains. But in an odd way the smell was relaxing soothing almost. Issac stood in the middle of the luxurious locker room. He was setting himself to make use of the facilities, his cloak and gourd were tucked away and he began to remove his bandages thinking back to the questions he had answered in the first round of the exams. Had he done well enough? The questions seemed almost top straightforward. Shaking his head clearing it of any doubtful thoughts there was nothing he could do about it now. He would simply have to wait to see the results.

Issac would leave the room donned only in a robe. The towels didn't quite leave him enough privacy in respects to the various holes located throughout his body. The hallways seemed to be too empty as he made his way to the hotsprings the attendant that was supposed to be waiting for him outside the locker room had abandoned his post leaving Issac to hind the way on his own. After a few minutes of walking he finally found them, and what a surprise. They were empty. Or so he thought few bubbles would be seen upon the surface of the water as Issac looked for a place to put his robe. His body would stiff as he would see the kunoichi's head emerge from under the water. Issac would swiftly turn on the spot facing the other way, his blood would rush as he blushed profusely realizing she was most likely naked.

"Beg my pardon I was unaware this spring was occupied please excuse my intrusion."

Issac would quickly made his way down the hall bumping into one of the attendants he would request to be brought to a vacant spring. The young man would lead him down a few doors before waving his hand for Issacs entrance. Issac would wait for a few seconds to be sure he was alone before discarding his robe and submerging himself slowly into the spring. It was time for a good soak.

Entering the Spa himself, the large Hoshigake would hand over his five hundred Ryo at the counter. With a nod and a polite bow he would move off into one of the changing rooms and swap out of his gear. A towel would adorn his lower half as he sighed and felt a little less tense already. The sounds of the water in the springs made him feel at ease, everything about the water was comforting to him. I wonder if I'll run into any Shinobi here. Naota would move out of the changing rooms and slowly make his way to the edge of the springs. His eyes would peer about looking for a sign that seperated this thing by gender but would find none so he decided that it was okay to get in. Sliding his muscular bulk into the water, Naota would sink up to his gills and sigh with a grin.

That however is when he'd hear someone start speaking, his eyes turning slowly to find the source. Several holes lined his torso which made Naota slightly curious. Lazily his eyes would then shift over to see a woman floating in the springs herself. So that was the cause of the boys outburst, Naota didn't quite have any reaction for it. Whenever he let himself relax this far in water, he would take on a slower, sleepier state. So it was occupied. Oh well. The young Hoshigake felt as he closed his eyes some. It was a good thing he was a more respectable boy, or else he could have went under the water and his excellent eye sight would have shown him more than he cared to see at the moment.

"Comforting.."

[Kusa's Vine]

Issac felt amazing, the deep soak in the spring had really eased his tension. His mind was no where near the first round but instead looking forward to the next. He had to be out of here and at the transport spot by morning. Issac slowly lifted himself out of the spring and walked over to his robe. He hadn't been in there for very long but his skin was soaked through, he wrapped himself in his robe making his way back to the dressing room. Issac decided on leaving his bandages off tucking them away after throwing on his pants and grabbing his cloak. The strap for the gourd slung across his chest he made sure he could securely close his cloak before heading out of the spa. He walked through the quiet halls getting one last breath of the aromas filling the air. He would thank the receptionist heading out the front door and making his way to the transport location.
