Nao Gave the new comer a brief glance. "Yo. Morimoto Nao." He said, "That guys teammate." he pointed at Hitori while saying that. He barely gave the technique used with the matter any mind. 'Water manipulation i guess. Note to self: bug Hitori for more Wind manipulation training.' he thought to himself.

He Had a small tinge of red on his face, whether or not the cause was the spicy food he had been or some other reason would be unknown ; he did not show any other sign that he was embarrassed by the declaration Ryuu had made. "Your lucky she is more concerned about stuffing that instable hunger of hers for the moment. If it weren't for that, I could swear she would hook up the two of you." He gestured towards where Miyako had dashed of to. "And if she failed, shed probably tell my sis." He shuddered. "If sis and Ryuu put their heads together, it's scary!"

His hand moving expertly with the chopsticks, he grabbed one of the shrimps from his own bowl and stuffed it into Ryuu's mouth, shutting her up for a few more moments.

"I appreciate your concern, but I do like the attention a little." He finished his bowl, set it down in front of him and turned around to face the covering of the booth. "Also having a girlfriend helps allot with my sis, since it gives me a very acceptable reason to dash off when I really dun wanna be with my sis at the time." He grinned a little. "At least my sis finds it very acceptable, and who am I to contradict her?"

Hitori smiled, "Ah, you've got an older sister? I had one too, she was quite a pain sometimes...but she still looked out for me. She was a great Chunin, and her ability at wind manipulation in our clan was only bested by my oldest brother and my uncle.

Hitori had a small smile on his face, and took another bite of his ramen, enjoying the spicy curry that caused the boy to let out a satisfactory sigh. He would have offered Ando some, but she was busy admiring the Genin's water technique, and besides, the ramen was probably too spicy for her to take. Hitori was said to have a stomach made of iron according to his brother, seeing as he ate any food that was made, even if it was burnt a little. Hitori had lived in the wilderness and in small villages in his couple of years of running from the Kumo hunter nin, so anything edible was taken with thankfullness.

He looked at Ryuu, and laughed, "I take it she's the eyes and ears of your sister while you're away?"

[Khezgaan]

Nao chuckled lightly. "Yeah its nice to have someone look after you." He paused for a moment. "I do believe that my last girlfriend dumped me because of her." He shrugged before his eyes widened slightly. "That reminds me, I haven't had a girlfriend in..." He silently started counting of his fingers "7weeks and 5 days! Thats a new record!"

Ryuu looked at him. "Has it really been that long?" She hissed thoughtfully before adding with overblown cheerfulness, "Well, we better change that!".

Nao's eyes widened. "Oh no you wont!" he exclaimed, "One word of this to sis and no more shrimps for you!" He threatened her. His voice had turned desperate though, he knew that it was a hopeless uphill battle against a clearly superior enemy.

Her only reply was a long drawn out hiss, it came out much like a cats purr...

Zoro just said his name and slightly bowed his head. His voice has Mexican accent with a slight southern tone to it. When the conformation started to head to girlfriends he really didn’t want to say any thing about it.

‘Too many things about that are too hard think about right now’ he thought to himself. He kept on playing with the small girl moving the water with his left hand eating slowly with his right. He started to make the water look like different things, first a little baby dragon then a phoenix, a flower snowflake and other thinks. Memories started to come back to him.

[Denim88]

Hitori smiled at the manipulation skills that this Zoro boy demonstrated. He truly had a grasp of using water...the amount he was capable of wielding, well that remained to be seen.

"Zoro, if I might say, you seem to be quite talented in controlling water. Are you a water jutsu user?"

Hitori leaned back a bit, and spoke to Nao and Ryuu, "Water specialists tend to be the ones with the best control over their chakra. As you can guess, controlling an element with such an unstable state requires the person to have a good grasp of their chakra capacity. It's almost like artwork with the way some users manipulate it. I have only a basic knowledge in water jutsu, but I do know that using water jutsu requires smooth flow of chakra."

Hitori continued to watch Ando with a watchful eye, and took another bite of his ramen.

[Luis]

He listens to him and what he said. “ A “smooth flow of chakra” you say savy” he said in a Spanish tone, and a very confused look on his face. He kept on playing with Ando using one hand. “I just thought of it no more than a using what you have to or see fit to use “smooth flow” as you say,” he thought for a sec to think on what to say next. “I myself look at it like water” he said wile he polled more water in to the class. He drank some then said “Drink as much as you need” then he refilled the class to the brim of the top. “Or” he jugged down all the water “as much as you want.” “People have there own way of doing how to control it or use as you see fit” he stated. “I myself bass my control on how I fell some times I use to little some times to much” he said wile swaying his head and body left to right in a slow clam way. “ but why do you ask?” he asked the Man.

[Denim88]

Hitori shrugged, "Heh, just a guess. I have an interest in chakra affinities...I just thought your chakra may have been tied to water, kind of how mine is tied to wind. That allowed me to shred this napkin into ribbons while applying chakra to it."

Hitori smiled at the boy, intrigued by the newcomer's continous applying of chakra to the floating liquid. He then looked to Nao, "Okay, Nao, I just had an idea. Now, since you asked me to teach you some wind techniques, I guess we can start your training right here." Nao gave Hitori a confused look, "It's simple really, you can do it on your own time, and it requires a thin object, and your chakra. Take this napkin for instance..." Hitori picked it up, and began to apply chakra with the hand gripping the napkin, "Think of this like the drill Ikari-sensei gave us with the chakra paper...visualize your chakra flowing into the napkin. Make it flow in swift, yet smooth movements up and down the cloth and..." the napkin ripped into two pieces.

"Now, it probably will take some time to even get a small tear in the napkin; it took me a while to get one when I first discovered my affinity. Don't be discouraged if you have trouble. Even though you're a shinobi, you've been using your weapons more than jutsu...at least that's what I assume." Hitori handed another napkin to Nao, and smiled, "Remember to apply not too much, or too little. You've barely scratched the surface of your wind affinity, so it may take some time to get used to your wind chakra. However, when you finally get it down, I'll be able to teach you a simple C-rank wind jutsu that can be used in close combat." Hitori noticed Nao frown upon mentioning 'close combat', "You can use it as your first step in learning your affinity's powers."

Miyako had been listening closely by the door to what was going on untill she had gotten the mop. Smiling she mopped up the mess as easily as what she did with Ando's spills and scrapes. after she rnsed it out and went and sat down again, watching everyone, espically her joy in life Ando. She wondered what happened to what's his name...the sensei guy. Akani maybe? She shruuged and ordered another bowl of ramen.

[Denim88]

Hitori noticed Ando looking at his bowl of ramen with pleading eyes. Hitori laughed, "Eh, Ando-chan...I don't think you should eat this ramen...it's really hot...'big people food'..." he sighed as she continued to give him a pleading look.

"Um...Miyako...not to be rude, but do you think you could explain to Ando-chan that a double helping of curry in beef ramen might now be the best thing for her...?" Hitori gave a nervous laugh as the woman returned to her seat, "Oh, by the way, this is Zoro, a fellow Genin." Hitori nodded to Zoro a few seats down.

[narusakulover2468]

Miyako smiled over at Zoro and looked to the small curry begger,"I told you not to beg." She sighed and asked for a very small portion of curry. "I'm only giving her this to show how hot it is. Learning isn't always fun," she grinned happily.

[Denim88]

Hitori nodded, remembering his first encounter of curry...not a pleasant memory. He watched as Ando took a little of the curry, and prayed it wouldn't burn her tastebuds too much. He had taken a liking to the young girl, and he didn't want her to get hurt. Yet, Miyako made a valid point; learning is an important part of raising a child...yet curry was not fun for little kids...

[Khezgaan]

Nao chuckled softly. "My sis, and sometimes Ryuu, do the exact same things to me when we go out to eat something. I find it quite amusing to see that it is a practice used more commonly among Very young kids." He gazed at The little girl. "I wish the sampling of some hot spicing would deter them from it, but it never worked." He sighed...

A sleeping Aikani was always a good thing. Well, he considered it to be. A sleep-walking Aikani was a very bad thing. Cause you never knew what kind of destruction you could run into. I mean, the guy has trained with some of the most record breaking shinobi of Konoha. And such was the cause as he walked through the streets of Konoha towards a certain ramen stand. Not many people noticed due to his head hanging down. Once he arrived he took a seat on the far side and sat there. Sleeping...

[Denim88]

Hitori was about to respond to Nao's comment on sisters when he noticed a familiar face walk into the ramen stand that was bordering on maximum capacity, "Ah, Ikari-sensei! There you are!"

...no response...

"Ikari-sensei?" a light snore could be heard from the Jounin...and Hitori turned to Nao, "Nao, Ryuu...is Ikari-sensei...sleeping???"

Hitori gave the Jounin-sensei an incredulous look, "...and to think that this man is supposed to teach me how to be a proper shinobi..." he sighed, the man was indeed intelligent, and a great shinobi...but why did he have to be so odd as well?

"Uh...well, everyone, this Aikani Ikari...he's the Jounin sensei of Nao and me..." Hitori said as he introduced the sleeping Jounin. Indeed...odd...

[Khezgaan]

Nao went over to the sleeping Aikani. He poked him in the face once and snapped his had back. When the only response he got was a low grunt he started poking him repeatedly. "Wow, he is really into it!" he laughed hard.

"Ayame-san, some shrimp ramen please." he added, one of his wicked gleams in his eyes, " and do NOT hold back on the spice." he grinned, shoving off his whites.

[Denim88]

Hitori sighed, "Nao...what are you planning on doing...?" Hitori gave his teammate a disapproving look, but did nothing about it. If Aikani was half the Jounin that Hitori thought he was, Nao would be in trouble one way or another.

Hitori yawned a bit, and rested an elbow on the table while propping his chin against it. It always amazed him how fast time went by. The sun was already on its last hour or so before in set.

[Khezgaan]

Nao waved off his team mate. "Chill mate. Were just gonna have some fun on Aikani-senseis's expense." He grinned toothily.

He looked at the ramen placed infront of his sensei and sniffed the air. "Hmm. not hot enough." He reached into his bacl pouch and dug up a small steel vile, he uncapped it and let a few drops of a dark red, blurry liquid fall into the ramen. Stirring it slightly with the chopsticks, he put them into Aikani's hand and retreated to his seat.

He was chuckling evilly the whole time. "Aikani Sensei! Your ramen is ready. Dig in!" he said cheerfully.

He leaned over to Hitori. "That was my sisters special concoction. it even makes her sweat and thats something!" his eyes seemed to be gleaming.

[Zero BD]

-sniff, sniff- His eyes shot open as the ramen scent squeezed its way into Aikani's nostril. He looked around to find that he wasn't at home but rather at Ichiraku's.

"Oh well, itadakimasu!" He picked up a bunch a noodles and devoured it with no problem. Then he... wait a sec... somethings off here... something with the ramen... His eyes started to water and soon he knew the probelm. "Ayame-chan... this ramen... its... its... DELICIOUS!!! Do you have some more spice around? Its good but not nearly hot enough."

He looked around to notice his two students were also at the stall, along with another shinobi he didn't know and the woman and young girl he had met earlier. "Yo guys, what's going on?!"

[Denim88]

"Hmm...better tell your sister to make another batch of that stuff...looks like she has a fan..." Hitori joked, then noticed Ayame giving the Jounin a curious look. Hitori waved to her, and made a gesture not to worry about it. She shrugged, and went back to continue with her work.

"Um...Ikari-sensei...you do realize you were sleep walking...correct...?" Hitori stated while looking at the small vile Nao had. Hitori had always been a fan of spicy food...maybe...? Perhaps later...

[Zero BD]

"Yes, I know. That's actually not a good thing. According to the village reports I'm actually a very violent sleeper." He wasn't sure why he hadn't gone berserk yet but was relieved that nothing happened this time.

"I think the last time I slept walk I destroyed a building housing a porno shop. It took three teams to wake me up! Hahahaha! Good memories!" It was then that he noticed the stares. "C'mon, it wasn't that horrible." He continued with eating his ramen.
