Training in Konoha

"....ah....I don't know," Toshi admitted, and took a bite out of her bread. "I haven't ever seen the Hokage... But I think it's a man."

"Maybe after this we can go find out?" he asked. "It seems weird to me not to know the kage of the village."

Toshi shrugged. "He's a very busy man, I'm not sure if he leaves his office much. I wonder what else he does in there." She grinned and started splashing the water. "Oooh, hey, a pineapple!" She pointed up.

Fallens started on the second dango and looked up at the pineapple. "That one looks like a mouse" he said pointing up. "I should start training soon the chuunin exams are coming up fast and I barely know any ninjutsu."

"Oh, you're participating? Good luck!" Toshi grinned and gave him a sweet (literally sweet since she ate melon bread) good-luck kiss on the cheek. "But be careful, okay?"

"Thanks, well my expectations are not to die at least" he said grinning. "I need to learn more I'm starting to think I might not survive" he said worried.

"You'd better!" Toshi said, frowning. "Or else I'm going to go there and save you. Then I'll make you suffer!" She was just joking about the second part. The first was very serious. "And you'd better show them you're strong, too!"

"I'll show them something they will never forget if they get out alive!" he said jumping up. "Wait are you participating?" he asked.

"Nope," she said, grinning. "I tried an exercise - and it was confirmed I would get seriously injured with my level of strength. And there was a high possibility I would die."

"We can't have that happen now can we" he said sitting back down and soaking his feet. "It would be really bad if you died" he said blushing a little.

"Nope. I don't know why, but as soon as I told a friend I would most likely die, they would tell me not to go. Is something wrong with me?"

"Ok maybe you can help me train because I don't think I will last very long without ninjutsu" he asked.

Toshi nodded and finished up her dango. "Okay, then! Um, as for ninjutsu, ah... I'm not good with that..."

"Do you know anyone who is?" he asked smiling.

"...no, not- oh, yeah, I do!" Toshi grinned, and took out a whistle.

"TOSHI-CHAAAAAN~" A woman, around her late teens, appeared. She had short brown hair, wearing a pair of shorts and a denim jacket. "Eee, you're so- who are you?" She eyed Fallen suspiciously.

"He's a friend! So, Fallen-san, meet Persephone Akuma. Perse-san, he wants to learn some ninjutsu."

"Ah, okay. What's your element? Water, fire, earth, wind or lightning?"

"Element?" he repeated confused.

"Yeah, element. Chakra nature. What kind of ninjutsu you can use," she said, as she purred and hugged Toshi tightly.

"Umm I don't know I don't know any ninjutsu" he answered. "How do I find out?" he asked.

"How to- hm, I really don't know. We need to experiment, then." She went over to Fallen, and handed him a scroll. " Katon: Fireball Jutsu. Try it."

"How do I do the jutsu" he asked standing up. He looked at the scroll and read the instructions and said "oh ok". He turned to the pond and channeled his chakra and released it letting out a small fireball.

"Then, it's fire," Persephone said, patting the boy's shoulder. "I'll leave you in Toshi's care. Train hard, now!" She went over to Toshi and kissed her forehead, leaving a bunch of scrolls in her arms. Then disappeared. "F-fire?"

"Is your friend ok I don't think it's fire I mean after all I barely let it out and when I did it was pretty small. Maybe we should test some more?" he asked.

Toshi nodded. "Um, okay. Try the fireball again, but try making it bigger."

"Ok it's worth a shot" he said turning to the pond. "Katon: Fireball Jutsu!" he said channeling his chakra until he's ready to burst and released it revealing a slightly bigger fireball the size of a chair.

"It's fire!" Toshi said, from behind a tree. She gave him a thumbs up. "But it's not the biggest size. You should make another. Add more chakra!"
