Nodake Residence

[Nodake Terasuke]

A dark house sits with a serene nobility as a lone figure enters carrying a sword. The shinobi enters the house silently and does not turn on the lights. He weaves his way about the house easily despite the darkness and enters the old training room. "IT'S GOOD TO BE HOME!!!" Terasuke yells in relief throwing his katana aside and falling backwards onto the semi-soft training mat. That was a long mission, I wonder if anything's changed since I've been gone? His thoughts drift from memories to ambitions to unexpected loneliness. I wish Netamu would've accepted my invitation to come stay with me for a while. His eyelids fall heavily though to him there is no change since the room was dark to begin with. If only..."YAWN!" for a little while.

Kenshi silently walked into the house. He turns on the lights and sees someone sleeping on the couch. Is this him? Is he finally back? Should I wake him? "Excuse me, are you Terasuke?" Kenshi looked at the man with a blunt expression.

[Nodake Terasuke]

Terasuke's eyes flashed open, but the instant he saw the Hidden Stone forhead protector they drifted closed again lazily. "That depends, what do you want?" he asked as he rolled over onto his side facing the shinobi. Hopefully this is interesting, it's been a while since I've found anyone interesting in this village to talk to. Terasuke yawned widely, quickly covering his mouth once he remembered someone was right infront of him behind his heavy eyelids. He peeked a little with his right eye, who knows, maybe this one's even got potential.

[`Arashi]

Kenshi got down on one knee. "I am in desperate need of a trainer and a jounin guide. I wish to serve under you as a pupil. Please do not decline! I have awaited your return so I may ask you." Kenshi held his breath as he awaited Terasuke's answer.

[Nodake Terasuke]

Terasuke opened his eyes and slowly rose to his feet every instant watching Kenshi with a solemn look on his face. He stood looking up at the shinobi. I was so rude to him, even though he still treats me with such respect. This genin seems to know how to get things done, and doesn't seem afraid to do them. Terasuke raised his hand to his chin looking very serious for a moment before bursting out, "OF COURSE I'll train you, what's your name?" Terasuke asked extending his hand before him in an obvious friendly gesture.

[`Arashi]

"I am Kazama Kenshi," said Kenshi standing up. He looked at Terasuke's hand and shyly shook it and retreated back a couple of steps. "Thank you for accepting me," Kenshi's eyes started tearing up. "I hope this will make me a great Shinobi."

[Nodake Terasuke]

"Well I assume you know who I am since you sought me out, but proper introductions are always nice," Terasuke bowed his head slightly, "Nodake Terasuke, and as for making you a great shinobi..." he lifted his face with a sly smile and mischevious eyes, "That is entirely up to you." Terasuke arched his back and rolled his neck around cracking a few joints, man I'm more beat than I thought. "Well Kenshi kun, you seem to have caught me at a bad time, as I just got back from a mission... but come wake me up tomorrow, and the real training will begin." With a wink Terasuke walked away, turning but once to remind Kenshi to close the door behind him.

[`Arashi]

"Yes, Teresuke sensei!" Kenshi quickly ran out the door, almost forgetting to close it. He ran back and closed it and rushed off wildly. I must get my sleep so I can train tomorrow. I am glad that he accepted me. Kenshi arrived at his home and quickly went to go to sleep.

[Nodake Terasuke]

"NOOOOOOO! DON'T EAT ME!!!" Terasuke sat up in cold sweat, what the hell kind of dream was that...? He looked out the window and saw that it was dawn, he yawned and streched his arms at the warm glowing sun. Well it's too late to go back to bed now, I probably just fell asleep really early last night. He began rubbing his face trying to remember what time he fell asleep, oh... that's right, that Kenshi ninja was here. As he wondered what time would be best to wake Kenshi-kun up he recieved his answer through the window. One of the Tsuchikage's assistants jumped through it landing in Terasuke's room. "This is an order effective immediately, you are to assemble your Genin team and report to the Tsuchikage's quarters before fifteen hundred hours this afternoon, that is all." The ninja gave Terasuke a paper with his team written out on it, Teraskue bowed as did the shinobi and then he left the same way he came in. Oh, so that Kenshi character is in my team, eh. "Well so far this is looking like a pretty interesting day," and with that he got up and left his house searching for his three man genin team.
