Haru Himura, The Yukikage
Haru sent a gentle smile to both Sayuri and Byakuya, he then looked at bag of food placed on his desk. He never really liked eating from that lady, usually he would end up giving it to paps. "Byakuya lad"! The tortoise shouted, rising its head and smiling. "It has been a while, we need to catch up." Haru rolled his eyes and raised an eyebrow, he turned to Sayuri and then to Byakuya. " I Hope your morning has been pleasant, if not, then the hard banter belongs outside." He gestured Sayuri to stand on the left side of Byakuya.
" I don't know whether to be impressed or worried. 6 out of 20 candidates are Genin and waiting for action, the others are staying in for couple months." He inhaled from his pipe, and let out massive screen of smoke from his mouth. " These coloured pads in front of my desk are information on the 6 genin, you will each have 3 like always. I alo expect them to be Shinobi under both of yours care, especially you Byakuya, give them a head start if you can, I doubt even you mastered the way of the blade in a day." He said, staring him down with a smile. "Sayuri, I don't expect this to be a hard task for someone like you, i picked you both because you two are the best this village has to offer.
Haru put the coloured pads in front of him, closing his eyes the man let his hand hover over the pads and placed his hand on a random one. Opening his eyes it the colour was revealed. "Well then, seems we got a pink. Now Byakuya i know you aren't a fan of pink so i think i will let Sayuri take it." He chuckled at his own jokes, regardless if nobody laughed. "Give it up Haru?" The tortoise yelled. Haru would sigh and turn over the pink pad. " Shinka Arishmo". He read out loud. "Seems to be youngest out of the 6 that have graduated. So he's the Storm release kid, what luck." The stream of of smoked ran like a fountain from the kages nose. " He lives by himself in a apartment it isn't far from here, and it seems Sayuri will be babysitting the banterous kid. It says that his Ninjutsu is nothing much to worry about, just a needs polishing. However his Taijutsu, Genjutsu ,and aiming need a lot of work. How you choose to tackle it Sayuri is it up to you."
Haru picked the next following colour, blue. The Kage would turn over the pad and raise an eyebrow. "Itsuki Yudai, age 15. The guy looks like a ladykiller with that big coat. Says he was born in small village in Snow country, graduated at 12, so he's been a genin for 3 years. His dream is to become a proper Shinobi, always maintaining the code of honor". "Right up Byakuya's alley", the tortoise rudely interrupted. Haru nodded his head slowly, his lips forcefully pressed. "You know code an honor Byakuya, so he is yours, apparently this guy is my biggest fan, I do see a bright future for him alongside you Byakuya, heck he's almost got the same haircut as you."
Haru picked up the red pad and turned over. "Psh, I'm not surprised about this one, after all he is from Konohagakure. From the Kazeno clan, his name is Marcuzuko or Marco, very foreign name. The guy looks like a flirt with women, you can tell he's cocky just by the way he's posing in his picture, I want to see his ego vs yours Byakuya, show him what its like to be a true swordsmen, it is said that Kenjutsu is rather strange, quite unique, maybe you can identify to us what style it is. He is actually the oldest out of 6 to graduate."
Next was the white pad, Slowly Haru turned it over to reveal a very sassy Kunoichi by the name of Kyou, Kyou Hasegawa."She works hard, don't be fooled by her sassy image." Haru said, revealing the picture. " Its unknown where she was born, her father was merchant that use to pass through Snow country sometimes, so i'm guessing she is a traveler. Teachers say they've never seen an academy student so desperate to answer a question, that they almost jump of their chair. She seems smart, I'm sure Sayuri will make her look dumb though, says she is a prized swordswoman, and one of the few to actually care about Genjutsu, I put her in your hands Sayuri, you will make her fire even more deadly.
Turning over the purple pad the kage would slightly frown. [b]"Melayomi Kazumi, like Marco she is from the leaf..However i didn't expect her to come this far, she isn't completely bad skill wise. she has great reflexes and good chakra control, i've seen her myself. But it's her personality, listen she may fool you with her angel like attitude, but look beyond the mask she puts on. She took quite a tumble at life, was said she came here to our village, feet bleeding, her parents did not care for as much as they should of. Sayuri, take care of her, don't let her do anything stupid like risk her life, harden her too, make her appreciate life a little more."
Finally the last one, his hand reached the black pad. " Now time to complete team Kato." Haru said with a grin, he would turn over the pad and then turn back, his left eyebrow raised. "All i needed was to look once and know that this was going to be a handful. Unlucky team Kato, your last team member is none of other than Akane Himura." He glanced at Byakuya, his eyes solid and darker than usual. " You know she is a trouble maker round the village, stubborn too, so i doubt even you could make her change Byakuya. However she deserves a chance, maybe she will learn the hard way, maybe this will teach her to appreciate the village life a little more. You got to watch her at all time, she's sneaky, and quite good at holding her own, not to mention she's the rowdy type, may not attack you, but her peers, i'm guessing it would result quite bad."
He put all the pads aside, and looked at both bodies in the room. "Bad or good, i like the outcome of this, i have feeling that this is the beginning of change. Not just for village, or the genin but for the 3 of us in this room. The tortoise doesn't count, they never change." He refiled his pipe before he would continue. "I don't know how you both feel about your teams, but i expect you to try your best with them. Before anymore time is wasted, i'm going to let you both go, you can go meet your genin and do what is appropriate, perhaps getting to know them a bit more, after all not everything on paper is true." Before the Sayuri and Byakuya could leave, Haru put out his hand. "Forgive my rudeness, I forgot to ask you if you have any questions as right now is time to ask."
