[color=fff200]"First off kid I won't touch on your family issues, but you're all full of shit. You think you're the only one who's lost a love one through some under handed bull shit? It doesn't make it fair but it doesn't make it right by seeking to live through vengeance. Once vengeance is gone what is left? Look I'm not asking or telling you to do anything. What I'm asking you to do is think about what comes after that next step. What comes after that man or woman or group is dead? Are you going to kill their family? Make them suffer the same as you have? What if they had kids or were just following orders? Can you look up at the mountain over looking our village and say to the first hokage's face that you will be proud of what you did?"[/color] Nara said as Kuro groaned. [color=0054a6]"We not here to listen to my teammates sob stories and whining about their dead families sensei. We're here to meet you."[/color] Kuro said bluntly as he stepped up to Nara boldly as Akihiko looked down at him and groaned before rubbing his head. [color=fff200]"I was just getting there. Second thing you need to know is that we're going out to the training field to do some group and singular exercises. I want to spend today learning how you four act as a unit and what you can do separately. You want to be better ninja? Then I need to know what I'm working with. Some assholes would make you wait until the dawn of morning to do these exercises. I'm not an asshole. You'll learn how to become a stronger person later for now you need to hone your skill sets. Do you all understand this or do I need to grab a hammer to make it fit into your heads? What I'm saying isn't complicated and what we're going to do isn't complicated. However before we start I'll let you ask questions and make comments if you want. Just be warned I am petty so if you ask or say something smart I'll work your butt ten times more than the others. Oh and one more thing. Mikone. I want you to know that's a fine goal. Don't stop working forward and don't stop to let others pass you. Keep reaching out and training till you reach that goal. Unlike Kuro over there you aren't motivated by a sense of 'I'm a better than you' mentality. And as for Fuku over there you'll need to try a lot harder than you think to make friends with some of your squadmates. And while it is a noble goal you should be aware that you need to set a goal for yourself personally."[/color] Akihiko said looking over to Kuro expecting some sort of comment from the kid with a chip on his shoulder. Kuro however was now shaking a little and holding back to urge to question their sensei. His anger and his bitter rage was now welling up inside of him. He'd prove he was better than his team and he'd do so in a way to make it clear to their sensei he was no average weak genin.
