Participants:
Hitomi Hyuga
Aki Inuzuka
Hitomi let the pup have the toy after nuzzling against the side of the small pup's muzzle. Sitting back up onto her knees, she'd brush off her forearms and torso while smiling to the two of them and letting out a soft but warm laugh at the growling that came from Miki.
"I actually have a ferret at home. Meeko. He is an old man now but for the longest time, he was the only companion I had in this world. Him and I did everything together. Now he prefers to be in his cage, living out his golden years relaxing in his hamoc bed with the cage door open so he can leave it and walk about my room if he so wishes to."
“Ohhh, Ferrets, yea!..Ha, they’re more like toys to dogs. Don’t do well together usually. But I think they’re really cute. I wanna meet him some time!”
Aki reached over, resuming the play with Miki by tugging on the rope. Miki was entirely unhappy that her toy was now under siege again.
“..I was thinking about getting a bird, one of the ones that can talk if you train them.”
She flopped back onto the grass which prompted Miki to spring onto her chest.
“Oomph!"
Smiling she sat back and watched the two quietly as she relived the play time that Hoshi and Tsuki had with one another. The growling and the rough housing sat well with her and she was at peace for once in a very long time.
"Be careful of what you say around them. They are horrible mimics. The last thing you'd want would be for it to hear you say something about your family out of anger and then for the bird to repeat it at the wrong time."
She laughed softly and watched the pair. A slight nod from her was all that was given as she slowly took her metal finger tips from her side pouch and placed them on, one by one. In a way, it was a reminder that she was not the same girl that she had been but she was alright with that. Now she was one that could stand on her own two feet and perhaps she could be one that would be able to help someone else.
“Shiiit, if my dad heard it cussing I’d be fucked royally. Or if I ..aw man..Maybe one that doesn’t talk..”
Aki rubbed the back of her head and watched Hitomi place the claws back where they had been before. In a way she was intrigued, she’d seen lots of weapons but never ones like these. Claws like a cat’s that would deal a ton of damage with a good Taijutsu skill and Hyuga were all about that.
“..Where’d you get those?”
She inquired, sitting up. There were leaves in her hair. Miki had finally won her toy and tromped off a few feet away to tear it asunder in peace.
As she placed the metal clawlike fingertips back on, she smiled hearing the inquary of the girl.
"Back when I had my Chuunin exams, I cut off the tips of my first two fingers in order to continue my attack against my own brother of Thirty-two palms. Which allowed me to win. After the exams, a friend of mine, Keldran Fuma to be exact, made these for me. Seeing as he had seen that I don't use weapons and I had lost a good portion of my first two fingers, he made these for me. Not only to correct the loss of my fingertips but to give me a deadly weapon. They are the most precious gift I have ever been given and the fact that he made them because he wanted to makes them even more special to me."
She said as she looked up to the girl with a bright smile.
“Woaah…you seriously cut your own fingers off?!..That’s savage!! I bet it hurt, holy crap.”
She exclaimed, astounded by the idea. Then cringed, that really would hurt. For sure! No way getting around that, Hitomi was a real bad ass and seriously wanted to win. She did what was necessary to.
“…You’re amazing. You’re gonna have to help me train for sure! After my Sensei of course!”
Mike’s head lifted off the tattered remains of her play thing. It didn’t last long in her tiny fangs. She was bored again, wondering when things would get interesting, Aki seemed amused.
Hitomi smiled and stood from the ground brushing herself off. She'd look to the two and gave a nod.
"I am only myself and that is all I can ever ask anyone to be is nothing more then themself. But I will gladly help you train if that is what you wish."
She said with a smile and a tilt of her head that was warm and welcoming.
"However, I need to be going. My shift at the hospital is starting soon." She moved to make sure that all her stuff was gathered up and then looked to the two that were there. "Are you two staying here or would you like to walk back to the Village with me?"
“Huh? Oh!..Nah, Miki and I are gonna do some exercises out here for a while. You have a good day Hitomi! See ya tomorrow or uhh..maybe later tonight!”
She waved her hands at her friend and she made her way to her feet. Miki bounded over, yapping away all of her goodbyes.
“..I’ll be stronger when we train so you better watch out!”
Her hand balled into a fist rather tight and she pumped it into the air, a shit eating grin plastered on her face with canines showing.
“Bye Hitomi!!"
She smiled and waved her hand in the air. "Take care and be safe." With that she went on her way to go to the hospital where she would shower up and get ready for her shift to start.
