All trees have bark

Hiroki Senju

Hiroki had connected himself with the tree as he sat atop it, this was of course part of a much larger technique, however he preferred to practice the basics, as to make the more advanced techniques easier. Today was of course a training day for Hiroki and of course being a Senju he was working with trees. Most notably a technique called "Tree warp" where he would transit through a group of trees faster than he could get around them, becoming on with the tree and traveling through the network of roots. It was a very advanced technique, but if he could master it he would add a huge level of overland speed to his list of useful skills.

Sometimes however the lonely Senju wished that he could have a partner to train with. Then he felt it, the tree was communicating something to him, there was someone else present here. He'd not even noticed them, were they a Shinobi? Hiroki jumped from the height of the tree landing with a small dust cloud just beyond its branches, and standing up from a squat he leveled a friendly "Hello." at the person whose arrival he'd just noticed.

Saki Himura

"Alright, Chu, today we should practice our attack pattern beta," Saki said, punching her fist into her hand. She and her partner had been working on a variety of different attack patterns recently, as different ways to counter various enemy styles. Beta was a pattern where they would each run at a target in an arc from two different directions, starting from the same point and then converging again for the attack. It still needed some work, though, to get the timing right. "Alright, now remember, we both start here, and you run at the dummy from the left, while I go right."

Chu jumped around Saki's feet excitedly, eager to try out the attack. However, before they could get the chance, the boy who had been in the tree jumped down to greet them. Saki and Chu had both known he was there--they could smell him--but they hadn't wanted to disturb him since he was being so still and quiet. "Oh, hello!" Saki gave the boy a wave. "I don't think we've met before...are you a shinobi, too?"

Hiroki Senju

"Yes." The young man responded, looking to the top of the tree from which he'd just jumped down, it was quite a height, perhaps even enough to imply shinobi training. "My name is Hiroki. What's yours?" He asked with a simple bow.

She was obviously an Inuzuka, though he'd not caught the part about attack patterns that she'd said earlier, he was certain that she was here to train. Hiroki been practicing a fairly boring but intricate building-block technique. He'd been so engrossed in it that he didn't hardly notice her until she approached the tree.

Saki Himura	"Oh, I'm Saki!" she replied, with a friendly smile. It was always nice meeting new people! "And this here is Chu." Her canine partner looked up at Hiroki and tilted his head, then yipped a couple times in greeting. "So were you doing some training, too? Chu and I were just about to practice our attack patterns."

Hiroki Senju

"It's nice to meet you Saki, and Chu." Hiroki responded, It was really nice meeting new people, especially nice ones like Saki. "I was just practicing a very boring technique." Hiroki admitted, important but very dull. "Would you like to train together?" Hiroki offered with a smile on his face. He might actually be able to spar with Saki.

Saki Himura	"Oh, sure!" Saki replied, bringing her hands together with a smile. Training with someone else was always better than doing it by yourself. Chu expressed his interest as well by running around Hiroki's legs and jumping up and down excitedly. "What kind of training do you want to do?"

Hiroki Senju

Hiroki relaxed a little bit. "Alright. I haven't had a Taijutsu sparing partner in a long time. Would you be interested in a little warm up?" He asked interested, he of course would be out numbered, but that would make this experience that much more fun. Of course, she was an Inuzuka and most likely specialized in such techniques, making it even more in her favor. Hopefully she'd hold back enough not to abuse him too much.
