Kohaku chuckled, amused by his apparent "Senseo's" title. After the brief greeting he was directed to join his new teammates. He walked away with a short wave and sauntered over to the two awaiting him. As Kohaku approached the two he could overhear them discussing what he could assume was their test. [color=darkorange]"Forty laps, huh? That's rough..."[/color] He said in a matter-of-fact tone.

The notably taller of the two seemed a little tense and decided to introduce himself. [color=00746b]“My name’s Ryuukaze Keita, by the way. I specialize in ninjutsu, but I also know a bit of taijutsu and have been trained to use weapons as well."[/color]

[color=darkorange]"Yo, Kohaku's the name and I specialize in afternoon naps, but I'm good with ninjutsu and a blade as well~"[/color] He said with an amused grin. After introductions Keita and the quiet girl continued to try and make a plan. Standing with his hands on the back of his head Kohaku's let his eyes wander over their sizable track. He found it a little silly that they were strategizing over running laps. They seemed more stressed about it than the situation really called for.

[color=808080]"It's not just that we should be stressing about. We should be worrying about how we're going to get through this entire course alive rather than pondering on how to chop a tree to be able to cross a lake. We have to think of the bigger picture here. Could there be traps? Land mines? Hidden holes perhaps? And on top of all that we have to figure out how we're able to complete this test without depleting so much of our stamina."[/color]

Looking back to the others Kohaku gave a quick chuckle. [color=darkorange]"Just deal with it as it comes~"[/color] He spoke in a lilting voice as if the answer was as simple as it seemed to be. [color=darkorange]"Traps, no traps...we don't have enough info to know for sure and no way to know where they might be. So there's no point in sitting around fretting over things we can't avoid without more intel. We might as well just deal with it as it comes~"[/color]

[color=a36209]"Alright-o. Get set.....GO!"[/color] Senseo's got the right idea even if he did up the laps to eighty. He seemed to think it was an improvement. They weren't gonna get anywhere by just standing around speculating.

[color=orchid][i]Kyu![/i][/color] Kohaku seemed oblivious to the slab of earth rising up behind him. Even after Keita darted out of the way and the quiet girl leaping to the side. [color=darkorange]"If there are traps as long as we keep an eye out for each other we should be fine~"[/color]

[color=808080]"Tsukarei-san, above you-"[/color]

[color=darkorange]"Hm?"[/color] Kohaku looked behind him with an unnaturally relaxed expression for his situation. With little in the ways of distress the Tsukarei clan prince jumped out of way of the slabs fall and barely avoiding being turned into part of the soil. [color=darkorange]"Yeah, like that. Thanks~"[/color] His necklace shone with a heated magenta glow momentarily. [color=darkorange]"What's got you so ruffled?"[/color] He asked obliviously as he followed after his squadmates.
