She was just finishing up her shift at the Konoha hospital and she was excited to be leaving finally. Though she loved working there, she knew this was going to be one of the last times she'd be here in a while. An hour ago, a messenger nin had stopped by and given her a small scroll that was a message from Tsunade, saying that she was finally assigned a team. She'd been expecting it for a while now, but knowing didn't lessen her excitement much. As she finished washing her hands clean, she started her routine of properly wrapping her arms. She reached into her hip pouch and pulled a jar out. Inside was an ointment that smooths skin and reduces the harsh look of scars over time. She spread it over the burn scars on her forearms and palms a few times a day if she could, hopeful that they would fade in time, though they hadn't made much progress. Afterwards, she started to wrap some white bandages around them, when a medical ninja came and spoke to her. [b]"Kyoko-senpai, would you mind helping out with one more patient. The students are having a bit of trouble."[/b] he told her. Pausing in her wrapping of her arms, she turned to look at the man and hesitated. [color=#8E4560]"I kind of have to be somewhere..."[/color] she started, though sighed a moment later. [color=#8E4560]"But I suppose I can take a quick look and show them what to do."[/color] she finished, nodding when the man smiled and thanked her. She hoped the process would only take a few minutes. She undid the wrappings at her hands but continued to cover up the rest of her scars, since she could still heal with just her hands exposed. The bright red blotchy scars on her forearms made Kyoko embarassed to have anyone see, so save for a few people, she kept them hidden from mostly everyone. The process of helping the other students heal a man with a leg injury proved longer than she'd thought, though she refused to simply do it for them. She led the two girls step by step, being patient until they'd done it correctly. When she was done, she bid everyone a farewell and left. Kyoko had to stop off at home and gather her equipment, though that didn't take much time, and before she knew it, she was all geared up. She made sure to take her sword and special gloves with her to help protect her arms before she left her small, lonely home. As she walked, she pulled her black gloves on and noticed her hands were shaking quite a bit. She clenched them into fists and willed herself to calm down. The mixture of excitement and nervousness made a sensation like butterflies start to form in her gut. She laughed at herself for being so silly and shook the feeling off. She wondered if they would perhaps be there waiting, and so she sped up her pace, going at a light jog as she made her way to the Academy. Her home was not too far from the building thankfully, so she reached it in no time at all. Kyoko entered the building and looked around the familiar space. She reached into her hip pouch and checked the scroll she had, making sure she went to the correct room. When she made it there, she took a deep breath and reached out to push the door open, using both hands as she did. When she stepped inside, her eyes landed on the three boys who were casually waiting. They surprised her at first for a moment and she hesitated in her greeting. She was expecting three little squirts of students, but the three all appeared tall and mature looking, more so than her that was for sure. Smiling kindly, she reached up and rubbed the back of her head, the look on her face was apologetic. [color=#8E4560]"Sorry for being late. My name's Kyoko Suzumori. Hopefully you three didn't wait too long."[/color] she would say, reaching back behind her to close the door. She stepped over to the middle of the room and leaned her hip against the teacher's desk. [color=#8E4560]"Let's not waste any more time. How about you three introduce yourselves. I want to know,"[/color] she raised a hand and held up her thumb. [color=#8E4560]"Your name,"[/color] she extended her index finger next and said [color=#8E4560]"Why you chose to become a shinobi, and lastly, what do you expect from your teammates and myself as your teacher."[/color] she finished, holding up her middle finger as the third one. [color=#8E4560]"There's not a wrong answer here, so answer truthfully."[/color] She tapped her chin for a moment, thinking she should go first, though she decided to wait.
