The pain was intense.

Shikaroku was nearly doubled over as the migraine sent a new wave of pain crashing through his head. Once again he vomited violently. This had been one of his worst migraines in a long time. Steadying himself, Shikaroku wiped the vomit from his face. The pain subsided ever so slightly and Shikaroku finally managed to stand. His legs shaking underneath him, Shikaroku made his way to the door of his room. He was supposed to have met up with his new team already, but he had stressed himself out, and as a result, the migraine had coming sweeping in. Not for the first time that day, Shikaroku considered taking the special pills that he kept hidden in his pocket. It would remove the pain he knew, but he also did not want to rely on the medication, especially when he was meeting his team for the first time.

Pausing at the door, Shikaroku calmed himself. The migraine had dulled to a steady throbbing pain, he could handle that for now. He'd have to. Leaving his room, Shikaroku grabbed his tools and equipment, and headed out the door of his home. 

Making his way down the streets towards the training fields, Shikaroku tried to keep his thoughts flowing, rather than focusing on anything in particular. It usually helped to stop the migraines. By the time he had made it to the fields, his migraine was almost entirely faded. Stepping out he noticed his whole team already there. Shikaroku looked around sheepishly at his new teammates and his sensei. Raising a hand he spoke briefly. [b]"Hi, I'm Shikaroku Nara. It's... nice to meet you all."[/b] He lowered his hand slowly and waited for them to respond.
