[hr]

	Tsukai slept like he was dead to the world.

	[color=f49ac2]"Hey, Honey its your big day! You might want to get up and get ready, I already have breakfast made and at the table."[/color] His mom called to him from his rooms partially opened door. Of course he replied with a groggy, muffled, grunt and flipped over in bed. Lazily letting himself dose back off, closing his eyes for what felt like only another thirty seconds. After opening his eyes again and seeing the time had somehow jumped almost a half hour ahead he flung himself out of bed and got dressed in a frantic flurry making sure he geared himself up. He busted open his door and came flying out hitting the wall opposite his room before stumbling down the hall towards the dining area, throwing himself down at the table where his mother just finished eating and was clearing the table for herself and his father. They both gave him a disapproving look as he scarfed down his food and hastily said thank you. Giving his dad and his mom a quick hug and a kiss on the cheek he bolted out the doorway.

	[color=bc8dbf]"He might be like that the rest of his life."[/color] Trailed his dad.

	[color=f49ac2]"Without a doubt"[/color]

	Tsukai was almost late already. Not to mention the Hokage themselves were supposed to be giving a speech to all of them before the exam. He dodged the crowd the best he could, shamelessly running into people apologizing over his shoulder as he quickly lost them in the crowd. He cut into a back alley trying to shave some time in hopes of not arriving mid speech. Only after it was too late did he realize the two shadowy figures step out from behind him before he felt a something wrap around his ankles and throw him to the ground. Catching himself just barely and scraping up his hands in the process he looked down to see some crappy homemade bolas. He didnt have time for this. Some thugs trying to mug just a kid? Especially today? He looked up to see the shadows. It was two kids right around his age, Both wearing headbands but he couldn't see what they displayed. 

	[color=8dc73f]"You should just go home now squirt, you'll never make it through the exams."[/color]

	[color=Purple]"I'd watch your mouth if I were you pal! You don't even know who you're talking to!"[/color]

	Tsukai retorted as he untangled his feet. 

	[color=8dc73f]"What did you ju-"[/color]

	Before he could finish Tsukai was on his feet and had sucker punched the kid right in the gut. The assailants partner just stood there in shock. Tsukai used the opportunity to climb to the roof tops and took off towards the exams. Checking behind him only momentarily to see if they were in pursuit, they weren't. The rest of his run there was uneventful, jumping from roof to roof. Once he reached the exams his heart was racing, after all the running and the little bit of tussle, it was expected. His headband had fallen down around his neck as he entered the room where everyone was already gathered. Just as the door closed behind him the Hokage started her speech. Tsukai listened intently and was revitalized by the encouragement to achieve and do well. He maneuvered his way around the outside of the crowd looking for his teammates, shouldn't be hard since Emon was so tall but most of the other kids were taller than Tsukai himself making the search rather difficult. Maybe he would check the corners first to see If he could catch Nemu taking a pre-Exam nap.
