She leads them out to a little courtyard area in an adjacent park, and indicates they can sit or stand wherever (the obvious seating is a few stone benches).

Chihiro will stand.

Permalink

Elieyha doesn't mind sitting.

Permalink

Hisame flops next to Elieyha.

"Alright. First thing, I want everyone to introduce themselves. Your name, something you like, something you dislike, how you spend your free time, your dreams for the future, and what your preferred fighting style is. I'll go first."

"My name is Inuzuka Sesshi. I like gardening. I dislike animal cruelty. In my free time I train dogs, garden, and meditate. I hope to see my students do great things. I prefer fighting head-on, using clan techniques in conjunction with my partner."

"Chamaru doesn't speak Japanese, so I'll introduce him, too. My partner here is Chamaru. He likes listening to humans read stories out loud. He dislikes dogs that are bigger than him. In his free time he mostly sleeps, but he also likes to play with the clan children. His dream is to become well known as a nin-dog. He prefers the same style of fighting as me."

"Now, you guys can go."

"My name is Chihiro. I like sparring. I dislike genjutsu. I do not spend my free time in any particular way. My dream for the future is to become a good shinobi and serve the village. I prefer fighting with a sword."

Permalink

"My name is Elieyha. I like history and learning new jutsu. I don't like big crowds. I mostly read during spare time. My future plan is to live forever. I usually use my sand to fight with."

"I'm Hisame! I like fighting and my brother Sasuke and my friends. My brother Itachi's on thin ice. I dislike it when people don't take me seriously. My goals - I want a flee on sight order from every village Konoha is at that moment enemies with. That'd be fun! And I like fighting with knives and fire jutsu."

Unfortunately a significant portion of the people she likes would pout and/or sigh at her if she got a flee on sight order from Konoha. Rude.

"All very good. Now, there's something the Academy usually fails to mention - there's a second genin exam. Usually, this just determines if you'll get a jounin as a teacher - genin who fail their jounin-sensei's exam are traditionally just taught by chuunin. Jounin can recommend their genin be sent back to the Academy or even removed from the program, but this is rare, and I've never had a reason to do it. I'd rather you don't give me one."

"What is the second exam?"

Permalink

"Something of the jounin's choosing. We'll meet tomorrow, early, and I'll give you the details then."

Permalink

"At what location?"

Permalink

She specifies a location and time - just after dawn, at a specific gate to the Inuzuka clan compound.

Permalink

They'll be there, then.

Permalink

She nods. "See you three there."

And gets up to leave.

Permalink

"I hate mornings," Elieyha says after she's gone.

Permalink

Hisame laughs. "Maybe we can ask for only evening missions once we pass."

Permalink

"Why does the time of day matter?"

Permalink

"People are more awake at different times of day, you know? I'm usually awake and energetic really early, and I sleep better if I go to bed sooner, and Elieyha's kind of the opposite there."

Permalink

"That seems an unfortunate weakness to have."

Permalink

"Weakness?"

Permalink

"Yes. If it is known there is a regular time you are less alert, your enemies may exploit that."

Permalink

"I think Elieyha's possibly more dangerous when sleepy."

Permalink

"How is that so?"

Permalink

"I am not happy when I wake up."
