[atrb=style, opacity: 0.8; margin-bottom: -10px;] Boredom had taken over her body again today as it did almost every day now that she found herself waiting some sort of extra special mission that would get she and her team up and going. However as the days continued to roll on she found that they still were unable to find anything to cure the boredom. Her last straw turned to a fed up sigh before she took off in order to find something that might strike her interest along the way. The thought crossed her mind to perhaps take up mountain climbing in order to boost her skills of ability and agility but then the idea of such a thing and the amount of work that would take and also the idea of having someone to come check on here every now and again to make sure she hadn’t fallen and cracked her skull open really seemed to deter the girl from furthering the idea any more. Ahead of her she noticed a few older groups having found themselves a place to hand out with each other, wanting none of that trouble Zakuro decided that an alternate route. Her new path seemed to be a be more harsh then the current one but it got her to the point she was going to and in the nick of time to. Her newest hobby had been following one of the other genin she hadn’t been assigned a team to, his name was Hanzo and well she just thought he was the cutest thing she had ever seen. She couldn’t explain it but the boy had caught her attention early in their academy days and had since then began to encompass her thoughts whenever she saw his team mates or him even if it was just for a brief moment. Though however now anyone she thought looked like the boy was now starting to remind her more and more of him and that was a dangerous thing indeed. However she was content with her sight seeing from afar, Zakuro had never actually been able to approach him face to face and had always made sure that their paths never crossed or at least she tried to anyways. It never mattered what the situation was Zakuro could never muster enough strength to speak to the boy let alone stand close to him and pretend he never existed. made by prism of btn and ls~

Dull, that was what today was in a single word he didn't have any missions to go on and his dad was to busy with his own work to help him train. He had thought about heading over to Izumi's and see what she was up too, but doing that might make her think he had some kind of motive to get ahead. The two of them were at odds most of the time trying to beat each other, if she knew he was slacking off so to speak she wouldn't let him live it down. He sighed and continued walking along the street trying to decide just what it was that he was going to do today.

Hanzo waved a some of the villagers as they went by that he know before making his way toward the training grounds. He didn't really have much else to do and since he had the time he might as well get some practice in with the new jutsu that he had learned recently. He took two quick leaps forward hopping onto the railing of a nearby bridge walking along it keeping his balance. He started forward thinking to himself just what he would do once he hit the training grounds.

He was about to hop onto the roof of the closest building when he got the feeling that someone was close by watching him. He stopped and turned around but didn't notice anyone or anything out of the ordinary so he figured it was just him imagining things. "I really need to find something to do, it seems this boredom is starting to make me paranoid or something." He was mumbling to himself as he picked up his pace heading to the training grounds.

He finally hit the roof and ran along them until the training grounds where finally in site. He leaped off and jumped down to the ground his hand moving to his side as he felt for his weapons pouch. He reached in about to grab a kunai when that feeling made a shiver roll up his spine. He turned around once again not seeing anyone but called out anyway "You know coming out and talking would probably be a lot better then lurking in the shadows." If there is even anyone there that is, he didn't say that last part out loud or he really would fill crazy.

[atrb=style, opacity: 0.8; margin-bottom: -10px;] She felt like such a creep as she followed him an unintentional outcome to say the least, she hadn’t really wanted to follow after him because then the chances of them coming face to face would be to real to come to terms with. It wasn’t like she was afraid of him no it was more along the lines of she was to embarrassed to say anything to him on the of chance that she would say something stupid and find herself looking like a fool in front of him and if that were to happen there was no chance in hell he was ever going to take her seriously or even respect her for that matter. she was losing her confidence in herself and it wasn’t helping that she was keeping pace wit him even though she knew that doing something like this was going to get her caught and yet she couldn’t help but follow him. On the brighter side of things she found that in doing this she was getting rid of that lovely boredom that had been following her like a plague for so long. Zakuro felt like an idiot already when she realized her brain was stuck on such meaningless thoughts like how she had found something to do that was keeping her entertained. This was not something she wanted to think of as a sport and for all intents and purposes she really needed to stop and find something else to do. It was to late for turning back as she found herself stuck with him at the training grounds, now at least she could have an excuse for being here and why they were here together. She watched as he turned in her direction and she did her best to use her skills to hid herself, it seemed she had escaped his view once but she knew his instincts would tell him she was still here if they hadn’t already. As predicted like clockwork he turned once more though this time he addressed her, well not her particularly but the person he knew was watching him. Not wanting to cause any more tension within the situation Zakuro timidly stepped from her hiding spot, she could only look him in the eyes for a few mere moments before her gaze turned to the ground before her, she wasn’t sure what to say not that she was sure her body would actually let her say anything in the first place. She thrusted her hands up quickly allowing the long bell of her sleeves to cover the lower half of her face “hi” she muttered softly from behind her vale of sleeves. made by prism of btn and ls~

[Hayashida Hanzo]

For a moment Hanzo thought that he really was imagining things and that there really was nothing at all there. That was when he spotted the movement out of the corner of his eye. He noticed the girl step out from her hiding place and greeted him. He smiled at the sight of her, so he wasn't crazy and she didn't look like someone that would be any problem. He was half turned to her now looking at her and tilted his head to the side as he looked at her. His hands slipped into his pockets as he looked her over. He was sure that he knew her had seen her around somewhere but he couldn't place it. He needed to get a better look at her and he was sure that it would come to him.

For a moment he turned back around his back to her then bent low and leaped backward with a flip to land next to her. He landed easy enough and smiled as he looked at her, it came to him where he knew her from she was one of the other genin that had been in the academy with him. She hadn't ended up in his squad however so he hadn't seen her much since their days in the academy. Now that he thought about it, he hadn't even seen her much then just a few times in passing and classes. He shrugged and turned to completely face her.

"Hi there, you should have just come out from the start, It's not like I bite or anything, and I wasn't busy so the company is welcome." He ran his fingers though his hair then turning from her to the side looking off into space thinking for a moment. His mind had once again wondered to they training that he had come there for before he shook his head blinking and focused back on her,

"Oh sorry about there spacing out a bit there, that's pretty rude of me." He expended his hand to her and smiled "I remember you from our days in the academy, but I don't think we had many times were our paths crossed. I'm Hanzo by the way."

[atrb=style, opacity: 0.8; margin-bottom: -10px;] She had been afraid of this moment and now here it was in the flesh smiling back at her as she stood there looking like a fool attempting to hide her face from him. She watched as his eyes quickly scanned over her and she couldn’t help but feel the red heat spread over her face, this was the moment of truth the deciding factor to see if she could handle being next to him or if at any given moment the fight or flight response was going to well up within her gut and cause her to take off like a bat out of hell in order to get away from him to calm the nerves that were so tightly clenched within her body. He seemed so casual towards her even though she had practically been stalking him this whole time, he had even smiled once he had saw it was her standing before him. The idea of thinking that he possibly knew who she was and was actually happy to see her was almost enough to knock Zakuro on her butt. However Zakuro had practiced enough breathing and training exercises to keep somewhat calm while Hanzo continued to stare at her as though trying to see right through her. When his body lept into the air with such grace Zakuro almost swooned at the sight of it, he was so talented that it made her feel dull compared to him. Again he flashed such a cute smile to her and she couldn’t help but flush an even deeper shade of red, she felt as though the skin on her face was going to melt away. Every action he made caused Zakuro to gaze at him as though he was a god or something, truly and Adonis in her eyes. His voice was like velvet and the fact that he had came out and told her to join him from the start had made her legs feel like jello, honestly if had any inclining to the fact that she was so utterly infatuated with him Zakuro might have been in trouble. The moment he turned running his fingers into his hair and looking off with such a distant stare Zakuro’s mind went into overdrive as the overactive imagination deep within side her began to play out some deep seeded fantasy in which he would turn slowly his head tilted as she started to confess his love for her and how he would watch her from afar when she wasn’t aware of his presence and bask in her beauty. Being stunned by such a confession would then leave her speechless and with one swift move he would envelope her with his arms and quickly kiss her. Instead however she was jerked from her thoughts as he began to ask about her name and his hand quickly shot out to catch her own. Not wanting to be rude Zakuro quickly grasped his hand with her own and shook it as quickly as possible, pulling back she let her sleeve drop to cover the flesh of her arm and hand. The other still covering up her face as she tried to unnoticeably step back a few steps “Zakuro “ she meeped out as loudly as her voice would let her. made by prism of btn and ls~

[Hayashida Hanzo]

As Hanzo looked at her he was debating on if should would even be interested in what he was planning on doing. He couldn't really remember that much about her from their days in the academy, just moments here and there. It kind of made him feel bad that he hadn't payed more attention to his surrounds and her. Well now was the chance to fix that at least, it never hurt to have more friends and it wasn't like they hadn't ever seen her before, they were both genin together now.

He took her hand even if it was a pretty fast shake, he noticed how small she was compared to him. However he knew that could mean little to nothing in the ninja world since the smallest person could be the most deadly. He started to walk toward her a bit staring at her for a moment his hand reaching out toward her. He was still staring right at her as his hand went for her "Don't move alright." His hand closed around something in her hair as he pulled it back still staring fairly close to her.

He smiled and opened his hand to show her the small bug that had managed to find it's way there. "Seems you had a friend there, but it's harmless and gone now. Anyway Zakuro, not sure if you have plans or were here to get in some training yourself. That was probably it wasn't it you had come to train and didn't think anyone else would be here, I probably should have thought of that before."

He felt a bit stupid for not having come to that conclusion before, to think he had thought she was watching him at one point. He looked away his hands in his pockets as he thought then nodded to himself as if having decided on something important. He turned back to her "So since you are here, as well as I and you probably wanted to use the training grounds why not do this together. I mean I don't really have any other plans so if you aren't busy we can train together. Would be a great way to catch up since we are on different squads and don't get to interact often right?" An invitation the only real question was if she would accept it or not.

[atrb=style, opacity: 0.8; margin-bottom: -10px;] He looked serious for a moment and her heart began to pound she was sure that someone would be able to hear it as it seemed to be ringing so loudly in her own ears. Zakuro felt nervous when he asked her not to move and watched as step by step his body began to move closer to her own. She was sure that if she passed out right at this moment he would most likely be confused and startled by the whole situation and in doing such a thing she would leave her body open to having to be carried by him to wherever he assumed would be the best place to take her. Then when she would awake she would have to explain to him what was really going on or pretend like she was sick or make up any excuse in the world so that she wouldn’t have to admit that just having him near her would cause her to faint like a stupid little kid. Then again she would be required to speak to him and that was going to be the most difficult of problems to take care of, though taking care of such a thing was going to be rather hard. However when he only pulled a bug from her hair she couldn’t help but let out a soft sigh of relief and couldn’t help but notice that he hadn’t moved away even after he had gotten the bug out. Before she could even attempt to make a reply to his sudden conclusion of why she was here in the first place he had started off yet again, she couldn’t actually speak this time now because the boy she had just been following and had such a crush on now wanted to train with her. He had just asked her to … Zakuro couldn’t even finish her own thoughts as the idea of being stuck here along with him was almost to much to handle. Zakuro’s legs gave out without any warning and she dropped like a fly to the ground, completely embarrassed her hands quickly rushed to cover the hole of her face it began to turn crimson. It took her a few moments to regain her composure before she stood up again, dusting off her legs she stared at the ground with such intensity she was afraid she might burn a hole in it “ I suppose that sounds like an acceptable arrangement” she replied to him. made by prism of btn and ls~

[Hayashida Hanzo]

Hanzo just watched her wondering if she was going to turn him down or join him. He couldn't really be upset or anything if she did turn him down, she might have had a jutsu she wanted to practice that she didn't want anyone else to know about. There was also the chance that she wasn't in the mood for training and had come here for other things like to relax or something. He knew that some girls didn’t always want to do rough things like train or things like that, it was something that his mother was always telling him. He would usually just shrug it off but he was starting to wonder if he should have listened to her more when it came to things like that. He was still going over things in his head when he noticed Zakuro’s legs give way and went down.

Hanzo quickly turned to her and was going to try and help but up, but after a moment or so she was on her feet again. He blinked looking her over not sure if she was alright or might need some help or to be taking to see a doctor or rest. That was when she had agree to train with him saying that she didn’t mind, he tilted his head a bit staring at her. He leaned in forward and placed his hand to her forehead then the other to his own “You know you really should push yourself if you aren’t feel will. It would be better to just rest when you are sick that way you can come back at 100%.”

He let his hand rest there for a moment as he tried to feel if she had a fever and was sick. He did notice that she was a bit warmer than he was but it didn’t seem that bad at the moment anyway. he pulled his hand away still looking at her wondering if she really was ok or just trying to act tough. He ran his fingers through his hair looking at her debating on what to do, if he should still try and push for the practice together or just let it go for something easier and more relaxing, he really didn’t want to push her more if she wasn’t feeling well and make her worse.

“Well as long as you are alright, and not trying to push yourself then it’s alright. Though if you start to feel sick or something just say something and take a break don’t want you getting worse if you are sick.”

[atrb=style, opacity: 0.8; margin-bottom: -10px;] God was unhappy with her that was the only reason she could think of as she watched Hanzo place his hand to her forehead then like clockwork his other hand moved to his own. Her body once again had stopped responding to any of her commands and she could do nothing else but watch the man check her temperature and tell her to take it easy. The fact that he had been in an attempts to help her or catch her had been one thing but the fact that boy in front of her was actually checking her temperature and telling her not to push herself if she was sick well that just made it harder not to turn into mush before him. She really couldn’t just flat out tell him that he was causing her strange actions and that she didn’t know what was wrong with her exactly. Zakuro knew she wasn’t sick or that any bug had gotten to her which would cause such a reaction. No Hanzo was her virus one that Zakuro didn’t see an end to any time soon. she gulped quickly and as quickly as she could flashed from before him to a few feet away. Trying to play it off as cool as she could zakuro placed her hands above her mouth once more " did you wish to practice jutsu or hand to hand combat I an suitable in both as a sparring partner though my speed with jutsu is quite astonishing since no one can tell what exactly I am doing because of my attire” She would do her best to change the subject and turn her attention as full as she could to just worrying about keeping up with him or well keeping pace with him. She knew nothing really about his skills or how well he was when it came to one on one battles, though she figured now she was going to find out a little bit more about the boy she was so hopelessly in love with. “ whenever you wish to being please let me know” made by prism of btn and ls~

[Hayashida Hanzo]

Hanzo was still looking at her debating on what they should do, if he should just take her to get checked out or not when she moved quickly back putting some distance between them. It seemed that she wasn't as sick as he had thought, or she really did plan to push herself for his sake. Either way it didn't seem like she was just going to admit to being sick or something being wrong and back down from the training. He would just have to go with it, and watch to make sure that she didn't pass out on him or something. He'd make sure not to go to hard with this, after all it was just a simple training between to fellow genin.

"Hm.. well if you are sure that you are alright then I guess we can continue with this. As for what we practive, I'm not to picky, I'm pretty good with ninjutsu myself so you don't have to hold back there on my account. So How about you come at me any way you like, and I'll take you on." From the quick chance Hanzo figured she didn't really want to focus on the illness that had made her fall to the ground just a moment ago. Maybe it was just a lack of energy thing, and moving would help her out.

He couldn't help the slight smile that formed over his face as he stared at her seeing that she was indeed ready to start this thing. Well he would give her just what she wanted and if she really was sick then he'd get her to the doctor as quick as he could. He nodded to himself accepting his decision, he'd help her keep her mind off of whatever was bothering her with this practice while watching to make sure that she was alright.

He raised his hands figuring he would start with hand to hand, since he would have to get close to her would help him to train in closing distances quickly not that that that had ever been much of an issue for him. "Well then lets do it Zakuro, here I come." With that he was dashed forward straight at her his arm thrown forward in a quick punch, before he swept his leg out to try and unbalance her.

[atrb=style, opacity: 0.8; margin-bottom: -10px;] She wasn’t sure of anything at the moment just that she needed to keep her thoughts on the training at hand if she wanted to keep from fainting at the slightest touch of him. Though it gave her cause to set out for a goal for this session, she wasn’t going to let him set another finger upon her she would dodge and keep her distance from him until he gave in. not only would it work on her evasion skills but her worry of what her body might do the next time he got so close would be less stressful. “ you are forgetting the first rule already Hanzo, you should never assume you are good at anything when dealing with an unknown appoint and their abilities. Perhaps you might be surprises after our little bout “ she was sure he was going to be distracted by her oddness but once she got started it would be clear to him that there was nothing really wrong with Zakuro, other then the fact that she was a girl and hopelessly in love with him. But she doubted he was ever going to be able to figure out that little bit about him, which unless he learned mind reading. He had announced his start which made no sense to her now she was going to be on guard for his attack, he came straight at her with no signs of darting in either direction a move to easy to predict. The only thing she noticed however was how close the boy was coming to her something she wasn’t at all happy about. She quickly threw herself backwards allowing one hand to catch her body as she threw a kick up towards his face. With a few tumbles she was about three paces from him Zakuro returned to her straight posture, “ perhaps you do need to work on your ability to make contact” made by prism of btn and ls~

[Hayashida Hanzo]

Hanzo grinned to himself more than her as he listened to her words. He shook his head, it wasn't that he forgot about that, more that he didn't have any real plan to go all out against her to begin with after her collapse a bit ago. He wasn't completely sure that she was fine, and going all out would just be wrong in his mind. Well that was his thoughts at first anyway that was until actually got started and he found himself being put on the defensive, She had avoided his punch backing out of it, and Hanzo found a foot coming at his face. He fell back adding a bit of a jump to it so that he could avoid the arc of her foot as he landed on his back.

He let out a slight breath and used his hand to push himself back onto his feet. He stared at her for a moment and dusted himself off, yea it looked like he wasn't going to be able to hold back much during this training. She didn't seemed to be as sick as she had moments ago. "I think I might have misjudged you a bit there, but I won't be doing that again Zakuro." Hanzo took a breath and looked around the area making a plan in his head then moved into action.

He dashed forward at her once again this time a bit faster than before but instead of attacking her head on he dropped to the ground in front of her and swept his leg out to know her off of hers. He wasn't worried about that blow landing, if dodge it meant she would have to go up or back again. He followed through with the attack and kicked up pushing an open palm thrust upward toward her moving in which would put his face close to hers if she didn't get away.

He would come at her the way he would any other ninja he was training with, and worry about if she was sick afterwards. Hopefully this wasn't a bad idea that would make her worse.

[atrb=style, opacity: 0.8; margin-bottom: -10px;] Apparently he was having fun with her as the smile that crossed over his face was that of amusement, it seemed that for the time being he was going to take her seriously and not hold back something Zakuro had hoped for. She had apparently surprised him with such a burst of energy after her little legless bout however he seemed to be recovering his senses quickly and found that taking it lightly on her was only going to make him look like a fool. She smirked at his comment knowing full well that everyone misjudged her in the beginning as she looked nothing like one would expect of a ninja and then once they began to test her abilities she always surprised the lot of them with just how well she could perform. She tried to stay as calm as possible pretending like she was going to be motionless and unable to take a straight on attack again. However she found that if she waited long enough she could read his movements and figure out just exactly what he was going to do or well that was the idea anyways sometimes it backfired and Zakuro was left in a tight bind. Her eyes dropped just as he did and his leg flashed out to take her legs from under her, she jumped them like a rope her body lifting off the ground for only a moment or so. However when his palms came upwards towards her she used the move to let her foot catch his palm, using the momentum she allowed herself to lean forward using his shoulders as braces as she flipped her body up over him. Coming down she dipped low and tried to use his own move against him her leg sweeping out to catch him off guard from behind. He had a few options of movement if he went forward she could easily use a flip to kick up at his face. Should he choose to flip back and essentially over her she would strike an open palm at his knee caps, then their was left or right and in those cases she would have to quickly straighten and a few twirling kicks sounded rather effective, either way kicking was the best way to keep him from her that and being on the defensive. made by prism of btn and ls~

[Hayashida Hanzo]

It was a good thing that Hanzo had decided to take this seriously now because Zakuro wasn't holding anything back. Even knowing this Hanzo couldn't help but be excited at the challenge. it was something about unknown challenges not knowing just what your opponent could do that was both risky and exciting. Hanzo know that this was only training neither of them would be seriously hurt after this but that drive and excitement was still there. Hanzo trained whenever he could, sometimes with his dad most of the time with Izumi, but the thing with training with the same people, you get use to their moves, and actions. So even when they do something different something you haven't seen it's not that big a surprise since you know how they are.

This was different he was training with someone completely new and that added to the challenge. He had thought he planned out his attack well enough that it would all flow and he could finish this a bit quicker, but her counter had caught him by surprise. She was left with only two options like he had planned but he hadn't accounted for how high she was able to jump. She had leaped higher than he had expected and used his own attack to add to her momentum. It was indeed a good move one that he hadn't expected even if he should have. He had to regain his thoughts as he watched her start to move behind him.

It was the move likely choice, to attack from the back in hopes of attacking your opponents blind spot. It was a classic and most of the time when done right effective move. The only times it wasn't was when someone saw it coming, and Hanzo had the moment she started forward leaning on his shoulder. He turned his head and looked out the corner of his eye as to were she had landed and watched her attack. She was going for the same thing he had gone for with her the legs. He grinned to himself at that as he moved to avoid the attack.

He flipped backward his feet leaving the ground just as her legs swept pass. However instead of jumping behind her he let his has hands land right on her shoulder his face looking down over hers. He grinned slightly before pushing up off her shoulders to build momentum as he came back down planning to try and land a hard axe kick to her shoulder. If she managed to avoid the blow he would kick back a few steps and recover himself.

[atrb=style, opacity: 0.8; margin-bottom: -10px;] There was no way Zakuro was going to be able to keep this up much longer she was already running out of energy just trying to keep from freaking out and panicking every time he got close to her. With ever touch of his hands upon her clothed skin regardless of where she felt a bit of her restraint begin to crumble. She just needed to wear him out first and then the matter of keeping up with him wouldn’t be a problem, she was going to have to give it her all in order to either kick his butt or take away all this remaining strength and end it. She prayed to whatever god would listen to her utterly ridiculous rant that she would make it thought this day and hopefully never find herself caught in such a situation again. She needed a few off hand moves that would get her out of his reach and would allow her to watch him and keep a eye on his movements. So he was going to use her own moves against her as well? Zakuro watched as his face came within inches of her own as he used his hands upon her shoulders to gain air, the bastard was just asking for her to hurt him. However when he turned attempting to come down on her shoulder with his leg Zakuro bent back allowing her legs to be freed from their position, when he was close enough her legs wrapped around the one he was attempting to use and she twisted on her palms. Allowing the motion to give her momentum she leaned forward attempting to drop him on the ground and to allow herself to land over top him. If he could catch himself on time countering would be easy though he had to time it just right in order to throw her off her game and if that were to happen Zakuro was sure she could catch herself in a few flips which would also give her more ground to free herself from his close radius. made by prism of btn and ls~
