Seth glared at Izu before he said, “I understand how the Mist train their ninjas, But damn it don’t you dare bring my ability into this. I’ll lay my life down for my comrades! I’d gladly be that sacrifice so my comrades and my village survive. So don’t you EVER bring my ability into this!” it seemed Seth’s hangover had faded because all the fuzziness was gone and replaced with anger towards the Mist ninja. He might have misunderstood Izu’s intentions when he talked about Seth slacking off.

“I’ve changed my mind Rin. Count me in on training,” Seth said. He wanted to show Izu how wrong he was, but mostly it was because of what Rin told him about the war. He remembered the Pain invasion and remembered how helpless he was to Akio. He would never show it, but when Rin talked about the war. He could feel his body overcome with fear and it didn’t help that Izu was kind of right. His drinking and smoking was affecting his ability to fight and that scared him. Not because it could get him killed, but because it could get someone else killed. That’s what he feared the most: having someone die because of him. That’s why he ran into battle without thinking. His comrades where like his family, but again, he’d never admit it.
