It was mid-day and it was raining, as it normally did in Kirigakure, and I was standing outside in the completely empty training field of the village. I was wearing a simple dark blue t-shirt and black shorts with my headband strapped tightly to my right bicep. It was weird to think that after being on my own as a genin for damn near a year that I was finally going to have a group of people to hang out with, a forced family of sorts.
I was leaning against one of the stationary logs used to practice taijutsu, and I was impatiently tapping my foot against the ground while I began scanning the tree line looking for any sign of someone else being here. I swear today was supposed to be the day we got together right? I decided that standing around doing nothing wasn't very productive so I pulled out three of my kunai knives and decided to try and work on incorporating my feet into my juggling routine. I stepped away from the log into an open space and put one kunai in between my biggest and second biggest toe on both of my feet by the handles. I then began to kick my feet one at a time passing the knives from one foot to the other. This is something I hadn't done very often so it required a lot of my focus. It wasn't long until mother nature decided to throw a wrench in my plans as a huge crack of thunder caused me to completely lose focus and drop the knives. I smiled and laughed at the unexpected out come and bent over to pick the knives up while whispering to myself "Well fine then, I guess I'll go back to what I know best if you hate my foot juggling so much." I took out a third kunai and began to juggle them all flawlessly with my hands, this type of thing had become so menial to me, but at least it was something to help me pass the time while I waited for my slowpoke teammates to arrive.
