Hiroshi Hon & Sayuri Cho
Konohagakure Team Six
Team Six, new formation!
" Sayuri! You will be late again!"
The red haired girl gritted her teeth at those words, as they belonged to the ones she heard most often. But this time, they were totally unjustified - she had more than an hour until she had to meet her new team and teacher. Her team is going to be the old team of her uncle, Team Six with a new Sensei - Hiroshi Hon, also a relative to her uncle. So all that remained were her teammates - she was excited about the prospect of meeting them but kind of nervous about working together with them - so far, she had to do everything alone and got used to it. But then again, having somebody reliable at her side, covering her back and entrust her back to be covered to Sayuri. She will have to work extra hard not to disappoint her family, her aunt and uncle. Smiling and worrying at the same time, she finished working on her final scroll - two of them contained a net, another one several explosive tags, and the last filled with two dozens of kunai and shuriken sealed in it.
Smiling and carefully placing it into their respective places on her belt, After those, she picked up her other tools - her kunai and shuriken pouch with wires. Carefully checking her katana, she then proceeded to zip her sweater a bit and then placed her katana on her back. Satisfied that she had everything, she left a note to her parents that she is leaving. Opening her window and taking the first leap, she hought she heard complains about her never using the door. Smirking a bit at the thought, she made her way towards the Hon Compound, where she is to meet her Sensei, Hiroshi and her new teammate. What is she going to be like? Will she be likeable? Will she be annoying? Will she like Sayuri? Will their Sensei be alright? THese and more popped up in her head as she made her way towards the compound.
The Hon Compound
Hiroshi was sitting inside of one of the dojo in the compound. He was sitting in the middle of a circle composed of several smaller rings, each one containing an animal - horse, snake, crane, tiger, praying mantis, lion, dragon and a bear. Several small notes were written arond each one of them. Next to Hiroshi was Hirudora, one of the famed ninja tigers." That´s interesting, Hiroshi. I see that you worked on it so much, but can you imagine using it in actual combat?" The tiger spoke up with a deep, slow voice - a wise voice that Hiroshi respected each time he heard it." I thought about it, Hirudora. While it looked promising, it is not suitable for actual combat. But it excels in preparing you for combat. Preparation is the key to victory, Hirudora. We all know that." His companion remained silent for a while, as if considering the words it just heard." True. I´ll take my leave now and get myself prepared for the next time, Hiroshi."
Hirudora disappeared in a puff of smoke, leaving Hiroshi alone. The circles represented a new way of finding inner balance - and by finding that, finding an edge over one´s adversaries. He worked on it for the past few days, but he also prepared for being a Sensei once again, leading a two member team. Both of them will be kunoichi - Chinatsu Hon, one of his own kin and a fellow wolf of whom he had great expectations, and also just happened to be his niece. The second member of his team will be Sayuri Cho, Aiko´s niece, of whom he also had great expectations. A promising team what he was very happy to train and give them everything they can ask for, and maybe even more. They were to arrive any minute for their very first mission as a team - a very dangerous one. The mission will thoroughly test their ability to rely on each other, as well as on their own skills. Just as he thought this, Hiroshi was turned his head to the sound of knocking on his door.
" Looks like Team Six is assembling. "
