[Graded]Gentle Taps

<r>Hisao shivered as the girl's fingers touched against his hand and her tearful eyes looked up at him as if he could something. Hisao tried to stare back, but he felt his gaze slip and look away. As the girl opened her mouth to speak Hisao wanted to beg her to stop, as if every word was pulling som...

[Graded]Beats of a Village

<r>Placing the bag down next to him and stretching his legs against the dirt street Hisao found himself staring in the direction of the girl. He could see the red across her face even across the courtyard, he half expected to see steam bursting out of her ears. There was a determined aspect to her s...

[Graded]Gentle Taps

<r>Hisao had always thought he was one to know his path. He thought he had his place in the world and a target to keep on striving towards. He had left home with confidence, defied his father even after everything he had done for him and looked towards his dream. It had been easy, he had just truste...

[Graded]Morning of Bonds

<r>Hoten was surprised, Hisao was surprised, but the question had to be asked. Maybe it was jarring, maybe it was tough to suddenly just throw it on the kid but as a smile crossed the Shoshiki's face Hisao found a little bit of pride soaking into his view of the boy. The boy saw a future, and one th...

[Graded]Beats of a Village

<r>With a careful confirmation, both visually and from the girl's words, Hisao was convinced there didn't seem to be anyone else in the vicinity. Sure, Iwa was a village of Shinobi, but they had better things to do than watch him. And either way, he was just a Genin, the girl was probably enough if ...

<r>Hisao gripped a little harder as Hoten began to speak, making sure to keep the Shoshiki's head stable as he placed another plaster over a cut and smoothed it down with a thumb. It didn't seem Hoten was impressed with Hisao's answer after all, not that the boy was massively surprised. Hoten raised...

<r>Everybody grew up. Some grew faster than others, some learned their god given place from day one and some had to look for it a little bit longer.

<r>Nibbling a bit more at the snack, Hisao closed his eyes before he heard a thump a few paces away. With more difficulty than he expected he reopened his eyes and cocked his head to the side as he caught sight of the small book. From a distance he couldn't read what it was, in all honesty that didn...

<r>Tired hands pushed against the entrance to the library as light spilled over Hisao's heavy eyes. The dark wood of the entrance into Iwa's library heaved as Hisao pushed against it with what little energy he had left. The little cracks in the wood creaked but all the little sensitive noises were l...

[Mission]Wisdom buried in the deeps.

<r>Hisao's eyes casually moved from the small lake as the woman spoke for the first time. Her voice sounded rough, raspy and faint. Something most definitely seemed off about her presence but within the cave that just made her as natural as the rest of the surroundings. True the place was beautiful ...

Turning with a loud sigh the boy went to break i...

Each word soaked in the girl's voice made the boy more and more quiet until he could barely hear his own breath. Each time he thoug...

<r>The Iwa library was unproductive, it didn't seem to have anything Hisao was looking for.

It would have been worth it if he could find a clue but there didn't seem to...

Hisao was fading but, even after such a long day, still found it in himself to allow the S...

<r>There was a pause between the two, at least it felt that way. The man was respectable but increasingly Hisao got the feeling that it was silence that made up his character. An introvert? Maybe, or perhaps he just thought more could be explained in silence than in words. Hisao knew the mind-set wh...
