Team Bonding (Artura, Calin, Tsubasa)

The teen was right outside the restaurant that their new jonin instructor had sent for him to meet him at. The messenger had arrived right when he had been contemplating a late lunch. His sapphire eyes took in the sushi restaurant and he briefly wondered what his sensei would be like. He had asked the messenger of the description of their sensei, so he could find him. So he knew to look for a white haired guy about twenty with blue eyes. Which shouldn’t be too hard to spot. He wore his favored cobalt and silver trimmed kimono. The sleeves short for his clans particular method of fighting. Although he was considering switching the attire up a bit. Especially considering that while his kimono worked wonder for fighting from the front, it didn’t do so much for the back and knees. He’s have to replace them every time he used his techniques, which simply wouldn’t do of course. The young man would look up at the sky at this point and judge it to be a few minutes from three. Time to head on in then.

He’d enter the sushi bar and look around, searching for the white haired man that had been described. He found him near his current location with his back to the wall. He would walk up to the man and nod his head respectfully “Shin-Sensei?” He’d ask simply, wanting to confirm his suspicions. If the answer was yes he would bow politely before sitting down. “Calin Kaguya, it’s nice to meet you.” He would say politely, as they waited for the other two teammates. The young Kaguya had taken a moment to look at the mans features closer. He could’ve been a pureblood Kaguya with how pale his skin and hair were, as well as the eye colour. Something the young man found liking. Of course he didn’t really care about anyone’s colouring when it came to outside of the clan. However that didn’t mean he wasn’t happy to see someone else with the qualities of the higher born Kaguya. Figuring that getting too involved in conversation would be a waste of time since they’d have to get any more in depth introductions done with the rest of the team anyway the sapphire eyed genin would simply wait in silence unless prompted otherwise.

Artura was a bit annoyed by the fact that her study session had been interrupted when a messenger had arrived at the Doctor's Office that she had spent the last several weeks inside of, learning the ways of Ijutsu from a young man who she often referred to simply as 'Seto-Sensei' as they were both very formal in nature and Artura was not one to step out of her place unless it was warranted. The Messenger had told her that her presence was being requested by the Jounin who would be leading her along with a few others on a Squad, something that Artura was none too fond of but felt necessary if she were to advance through the ranks of the village as she had planned.

And so with a sigh, Artura took off the white gloves she had been wearing in order to work on a cadaver that she was studying alongside Seto and then bowed to her medical sensei before leaving him in the office as she made her way toward the restaurant she had been told that the Jounin would be awaiting her presence along with the others. She took care, however, to stop on the way and use a pane of glass from a shop along the way in order to double and triple check her uniform for any imperfections and straightening out the badges and various other small tidbits on the uniform before she arrived at the meeting location.

She stepped inside, producing another pair of white gloves from a uniform pocket and placing them on her hands before then taking a look around the area and eventually settling her gaze upon a table where it seemed that one other member of her team had made it along with her Sensei - this presumed by the fact that the two were seated together and that one of the individuals matched the brief description she had been given by the messenger that had arrived for her earlier.

Artura would approach the table, giving them both a brief yet respectful bow of her head along with a few soft-spoken words: "Shin-sensei I presume?" She asked toward the older male, before then turning her attention onto the other and giving him the faintest hint of a smile. "And one of our team-mates, am I correct?" She asked toward them both individually, before then taking a seat at the table beside her team-mate if she were allowed to do so and then spoke up in order to introduce herself in turn if the two had confirmed her previous guess:

"Artura Nyx, Genin: At your service, Sirs." She would say in a manner that was both curt yet seemed to carry with it a hint of discipline to it that suggested she was doing so out of respect for the others rather than being purposefully short with them for the sake of it. After she had introduced herself, however, Artura would then fall silent for the time being and allow the others to speak as they wished unless prompted to do otherwise - waiting to see if the other member of their team would arrive soon.

"Get up and get ready for work boy."

The sounds of a voice that the boy knew all too well. Tsubasa stood from the bed he had became accustomed to , a few thrown together straws and a pillow with a ragged cover were all the small boy had. It wasn't as if he could get anything better since he was an orphan. From behind the male was thrown a pair of clothing, nothing fancy nor was it comforting. A pair of shorts, a frayed shirt and what couldn't be called sandals. Thrown right into work he began to clean the floors while the other kids in the household ran about playing and laughing at him, but did he care? No. He was far too detached from what many people had called a normal life to care about being laughed at or being poked at. Even if he was a ninja of the Mist he had nothing.

It was only a few moments after he had finished cleaning that a knock at the door had been heard echoing into the main hall. Of course he was the only one to have heard it, no one else in this house knew what work was or even bothered to go out and get what was needed. With a quick waddle he appeared at the door and stared at the messenger who had asked for him specifically. There was a small tilt of his head before he simply nodded confirming that he was indeed Tsubasa. A child of few words, the messenger went on to notify him that his team leader had been waiting for him at the sushi restaurant. Of course it came to a surprise that he was put on a squad, but with another nod he closed the door behind the two of them and left to go to the side of the house. Hidden among the rubble was a small bag with his only good pair of clothing. A nice pair of khaki shorts, a small shirt and long white jacket. Of course he didn't have enough time to wash himself properly so he splashed hs face with some water and took off in the half broken sandals to make it on time.

Arriving just before 3 pm, the small male walked into the establishment looking around for someone who had fit the description of his new sensei, and sure enough after a small look he spotted his head first and slowly walked over. Of course he needed to introduce himself, but when he saw the other two he just looked at them blankly before taking a seat and looking down at the table. Making eye contact from his own experience had been met with punishment so unless Shin had said something to him directly he would just stare at the table, but would fully be paying attention to his surroundings by listening.

The Yuki next to him would say nothing after he spoke, neither confirming his name or even that he was the man the teen was looking for. As such when the other two teammates arrived he would be standing and confused. Still the tall Yuki did nothing to acknowledge their existence. Shrugging his shoulders Calin would simply leave "I think he has a lot on his mind for some reason. I don't think we'll get a lot out of him." He'd say to his two teammates as he left.

Artura was disciplined when it came to her attitude toward superiors, though, if there were one thing that managed to irk the young Genin it was being ignored; and so, with a sigh, she could not help but agree with the Kaguya who had spoken up in regards to the matter:

"It seems to be that way." She would add in confirmation before her eyes flickered onto the Yuki across the table and she gave a small bow of her head. "My apologies, Sir, for interrupting your thoughts." She would say with a hint of annoyance in her tone before then moving to stand and walking out of the restaurant in turn. Artura mentally noted the appearance of the other two that had arrived with her, doing her best to commit them to memory in the event she was ever fortunate enough to encounter them again.

Adjusting her uniform again in the reflection of the store's window from the outside, Artura would take a moment to close her eyes and take a deep breath: This was indeed a misstep, but it did not mean that she was on the wrong path - it only meant that the village had failed her in this regard - and that, she would definitely remember.
