Hitomi smiled. Back home people were pretty grim, most comradely was in the form of life threatening training. Half of her had wished she had been born to this village. [i]I like it here the people are so nice...[/i] she thought as she took a bottle of soda. [color=lightcoral]" Thank you very much,I am Hitomi pleasure to meet you."[/color] she said bowing slightly. Hitomi was taken back by Rin's sudden placemnt of her arm on her shoulder[i]"Third wheel huh...I could think of worse things I suppose[/i] she thought with a smile.[color=lightcoral]"Yay for thrid wheels" [/color] she said with a giggle

As Hiro Neared the training area, he already knew his sister was slacking off. [i]These weak willed leaf...not even strong enough to defend their homes...[/i] he thought [i]We struggle every day for survival...yet here they thrive in ignorance to the harsh nature of the world... their villagers live in peace and were wholly unprepared for the invasion...they deserved death...they shouldn't have returned...would have done their village a favor/i] as hiw thoughts grew darker a sudden voice sounded in his head [i]Hiro, the nature of our way of life is harsh yes, but we live and die for our people... so that they may live ignorant to the darkness of the world... the day we forget that, or the day we forsake that oath is the day we are no longer fit to wear the headband of our village.[/i] the voice was that of a woman, of Hiro's old Sensei from the time he was a Genin. [i]I am trying to keep to that oath...but its not easy when people become complacent[/i]
