[color=0054a6]"How should I know? I'm not physic or anything. Probably something somebody wanted to get done but was too lazy to do or maybe construction work. Genin don't get action filled missions."[/color] Kuro said faintly annoyed by the random change of subjects as Akihiko whistled loudly. [color=fff200]"Come on pick up the pace I don't want to get in trouble because I kept you kids out too long."[/color] Akihiko grumbled as he kept moving along. Kuro nodded and picked up his pace determined not to let his sensei talk down to him. No one got to talk down to him. He may not be a jonin but he wanted to become one more than anyone else here.

Akihiko eventually led them near the front gate to the promised restaurant. It wasn't glamorous but it was homely and it was clean without much noise. In the corner two chunin ninja were conversing and there were a couple of older folks around. The older lady came up to them and bowed and asked for their orders before leaving the group to their own devices. She however came back shortly with some glasses of water and said it was free before leaving to go make their meals. The group sat around in a square booth with two people on each side and their sensei sitting by himself in the back half of the booth. Kuro sat on the left hand side next to their sensei and Mikone while Fukusho and Masatake sat on the other side. Kuro tapped his fingers on the booth as he drank his water and their sensei rolled his shoulders around in circles. [color=fff200]"So I hope you don't mind the place. It's where I usually come to eat out. TThe food is decent and the place is quiet. It lets me think and it let's me just chill out. You guys get it?"[/color] Akihiko said plainly as he looked at his students trying to be casual after just having beaten them down in the middle of the forest.
