yours -Rōgan
i seal the letter in an envelope and walk down to the hidden leaf post office, i breathe deeply, im leaving everything i know for an unknown amount of time to try and become stronger. i drop the letter off and walk slowly down the streets, the sun is starting to set and this is my final night in the village.
"instant transmission!" im now at the training grounds, im going to practice until hashirama shows up. as i train i reminisce on my life up to this point and it feels like mere minutes go by when i hear mikku
"yo Ro you been up all night training?" i completely zoned out and trained for nearly 10 hours straight without realizing it. im drenched in sweat and my shoes feel soggy from it.
"yeah i wanted to be ready for hashirama" i smirk keeping up my cocky demeanor.
"i hear hashirama has been training someone in secret" mikku tells me, "i wonder who it is"
"dont worry about it" i shrug
"you seem different, less hostile" mikku looks me up and down.
"im just tired you baka!" i bark at him. he laughs and i grimace.
"well well well you two are here already, lets get started" hashirama walks our way from the entrance of the training grounds, someone is following along side him.
"who do you think that is" mikku whispers to me. i shrug.
"ahh i see you noticed my other pupil, he will he the third member of this ninja team, his name, is jeiku"
