[hr]

Takeshi smiled at Suburo's antics, perhaps they were not so different, trying to makes friends at this age was every uncommon. Maybe he would invite the black haired shinobi for dinner of some poker....it would seem to be fine hanging out with him. [color=00a651]"Keep up the good work, do you mind lending me your notes as well?"[/color] he wanted to get some tips of him...if he would accept.

When Saburo had given his greeting, and Takeshi his reply, Akio had hesitated a good long while before finally walking from her corner. Her hood was up and covering her face, the only thing really visible from underneath the shadow was the gold of her eyes, her mouth, and a few locks of shiny white hair. She nodded at the two of them without a word, then slowly raised her fist and added it to the center. 

[color=fff200]"Name's Akio, nice to meet'cha and hope we get along."[/color] She then put her hands back in her pockets and lean against the wall, staring at their team leader to see what he'd have in mind for the mission.

Takeshi looked at her for a moment before nodded [color=00a651]"I remember you....you used to hand out where i trained and wanted to be by myself, nice to see you again.....did you change you hair or something?"[/color] he pointed that out [color=00a651]"Oh well...doesn't matter."[/color] Akio was still a loner, maybe talking to her more after this would get her to open up? Takeshi made a mental note on that to follow up on.

Saburo would speak up. The words flowed rapidly from his mouth and it would be hard to keep up, but Saburo maintained a friendly face the entire time, smiling slightly when he paused and keeping his eyes closed in pleasure. [color=0072bc]“Yesterday, I had to pay the bill for my electricity. It was quite a hassle, but it was a new experience. Is electricity useful? I don't know. I never see a shinobi running around powering my devices! It's so strange. So I called their headquarters and asked about it. They said they don't use shinobi to power my devices, and when I asked why, they said they aren't allowed. Strange, right? I can cook my food without gas, though, cause I've got fire jutsu. I learned that in the eleventh co-”[/color]

Takeshi mind had the blue screen of death in his mind, his brain could no process what he just said..something about electricity and fire?

[color=00a651]'I need to pay the bills soon...'[/color] another note to follow on.

Before he could continue his talk he suddenly opened his eyes and had a shocked expression on his face - something was wrong. [color=0072bc]“I can't tell you about that. I'm sorry, please accept my sincere apologies for the sudden break off of my sentence, I hope you can accept and forgive me, denoting that I am very sorry and hope we can still be friends!”[/color] he said as he dropped to the floor and sat at their feet, begging for forgiveness. 

[color=00a651]"Dude, relax, no harm done." [/color]he pulled him up right and patted his shoulder [color=00a651]"Just don't do that again...for the slightest thing: you don't have to bow, there is always a proper time and place for that."[/color]

[i]"Nice to meet you all." Hideyoshi walked forward till he was standing only a feet away. "It seems we are to work together. I would like to discuss this with you farther. Saboru, Akio, and Takeshi." Hideyoshi purposefully left out their honorifics as his voice took a serious turn. "We are being allowed in Kumogakure to find the thief. I'm going to split us into two and we will question individuals in the area, they've allowed us that much. Please do not harass anyone. Kumo is rather aggressive so I would prefer if we held off on garnering their ire. Akio will be with me. Saboru, I leave you with Takeshi. Be ready for anything. Once investigations are over, we will meet in-front of the Raikage's office. If there are no objections then I would like to get moving to Kumo. The sooner, the better. It will take us around a day or two to make it to Kumogakure with non-stop moving, periodic breaks in-between." [/i]

[color=00a651]"Yes!"[/color] Takeshi nodded as the team grabbed their gear and started the long road towards Kumo.

[color=00a651]"I guess i'll go first: My Name is Takeshi Ruzuzaki, i abandon the Hanami name because they guy who carried that name died: he was too weak." he shrugged "I'll be honest: i blindly joined the Jashin Cult when i was young and didn't know any better, it left a big mark on me: you'll see why later on."[/color] he sighed [color=00a651]"joining that shitty cult fucked up my life bad and now because of it: i'm trying to rebuild a new me..hence why i i'm the anti social you see now."[/color]

[color=00a651]"I enjoy cooking, cleaning, going to the arcade and playing Piano and Guitar. At a young age i self taught myself to do these thing and it's payed of greatly." [/color]he nodded [color=00a651]"As for my fighting style i lean towards my Taijtusu instead of my fire Jutsu, i guess i don't have a real reason why...."[/color]

[color=00a651]"I used to have family...but the abandoned me when i was young, i don;t mind it at all: I wouldn't care if they came back and tried to make amends: you don't betray blood."[/color] his voice was dark for that. [color=00a651]"So what about you guys?"[/color]
