[Graded]The New and the Old

[Niro]

Tei, Kawa was sitting in one of Konoha's parks, thinking about the upcoming exams he and his team would soon he participating in. He had also learned his former mentor, Izigin, and received a new team. Kawa wanted to meet one of his new students so he had sent the boy a message asking him to join him at the park at 12 P.M. At the current moment the time was 11:55 A.M. so the kid had a little while to show up.

[Tsedas]

Toshio was trotting down the street, he'd almost forgotten about the meeting he had with... some guy. Tosh couldn't remember a thing that was in the letter but he had Makoto, Ayame, and Ranma 'hanging out' in the park. After all, Tosh receives a mysterious letter for a meet after all the shit that has gone down in the past month. He wasn't taking any chances now, especially with Kikyo out of the pokey and ready to hunt his alter ego down like a dog.

"God that woman is a psycho hose beast. What did Subaru ever see in her?" Tosh huffed and puffed as he made his way around a corner, entering the park. He stopped as he took a moment to catch his breath. Tosh regretted that he didn't bring the letter with him since he didn't know where where exactly he was meeting this person. "Ugh, what time is it?"

Tosh caught sight of a clock and he had one minute to go. He had made it with a minute and some change to be precise, but Tosh's only concern now was identifying whether or not the man he was meeting was really a 'friend' of his Jounin teacher or not. He caught a glimpse of Ranma buying something to eat at a portable stall. Looking around he also saw Ayame and Makoto sitting in the grass while they placed look out. Tosh didn't bother lingering on them since he didn't want to give them away as his look outs.

"Who is it?" Tosh asked himself quietly before he remembered to keep an eye out for other threats. Tosh watched for anyone watching him, He watched for Kikyo or Oburi, and he watched for anyone making a move in his direction that he didn't recognize. He was glad he brought his batons with him, he didn't need to get beat up again after what happened with Oburi.

[Niro]

Sitting in front Toshio about 10 meters away was Kawa. He pulled down his eyepatch from his forehead and undid his scarf a bit because of the building heat. You'd think a person would get use to Konoha's heat if they were a natural citizen. Kawa scanned the park and saw the boy.

Kawa quickly got up and dusted himself off before he slowly approached Tosh. he had been the only kid to enter the park around 12 and so he deduced that it should have been him.

"Hello, Toshio?" Kawa asked with a small smile and a wave. Truth be told? The kid looked a bit feminine, probably a late bloomer. "I'm Kawa. You have Izigin-sensei as your jounin instructor, right?"

[Tsedas]

Tosh's eyes locked on the person coming his way. He felt his legs tense a bit as they readied to bolt in some random direction. He faked a nervous glance around but in actuality he was making sure his friends saw the threat. They did and ever watching the young man from behind, awaiting either a safe sign or a diversion sign.

"Yes, I'm Toshio." Tosh nodded before the teen asked if Izigin was his teacher. The first thought in his head was something like *I doubt Kikyo would hire a hit man for 'Tosh' when she'd rather kill 'Chiyo'. Oburi would probably have his friends slit him up a treat, or have them help him do it. Maybe he's the real thing... fuck that, I'll keep the others on stand by.* Tosh swallowed as he nodded to the second question. "Yeah, Izigin is my Jounin. Who are you?

Tosh got a look at the young man's face, trying to use his peripheral vision to take in other notes about the teen in front of him. The main thing Tosh noted was that the person was taller than him, about the same height as Tosh's friend Nabiki. He also noted the eye patch on his face. If anything he was more fit and in shape than Tosh judging from his frame, but that was only a guess and one Tosh wasn't willing to test. "So why did you call me out here?""

[Niro]

'Jumpy little fucker, eh?' Kawa thought as he saw Toshi look around nervously like he was readying an escape route. Either he was easily nervous or something had happened to scare him a bit. Kawa figured he would ask, but later and not now. Toshio looked like he would run if he asked now.

Kawa noticed the boy sizing him up, checking him out, whatever people called it nowadays. Kawa had to look down to actually face the boy but that was a given as he was probably a bit older than him and the boy looked to be lacking testosterone right now.

"I wanted to know because technically? You're my kouhai. I was one of the genin Izigin-sensei had a while back but our team was disbanded because of my former team mates. They just..dropped off the map and I haven't seen them in forever. We might not have been the greatest students but I still respect Izigin as a teacher and as a friend."

[Tsedas]

"Kouhai? How old are you?" Tosh was curious now because he hadn't heard about any past teams from Izigin yet. Then again he hasn't had much face time with his Jounin teacher to begin with so it's hard to know anything about him. Tosh reached back and pulled his hair tie off, scratching his hair out as it fell about his face. HE looked almost like a girl with it down but it was the best he could think of for a 'safe' sign for his friends.

"So is losing an eye some sort of thing his teams go through?" Tosh asked motioning at his eye as he rather enjoyed the use of both eyes. In all honesty Tosh wanted to shove his foot in his mouth as he realized what he asked, wanting to slap himself in the head for it. But then again people always say "Young lady" and "Miss" to him all the time so he decided to fuck it.

Tosh looked down as he fiddled with his hair tie, straightening it out and pulling off the stray strands of hair that happened to come off when he removed it. Tosh looked back up quickly as he decided not to take his eyes off the cyclops of a man.

[Niro]

"Heh, believe it or not? I'm only 13. Still, doesn't matter. In most social matters? I probably wouldn't be your senpai, but when it comes to Izigins' teams? I am seeing as I came before you." Kawa commented and mentally laughed. DAMN! He really did look like a chick with his hair down, he looked like a guy with it tied at least.

"Huh? Oh, this thing?" Kawa pointed to his patch and grinned. "Yeah, Izigin drove a kunai through my skull and plucked my eye right out." Kawa pulled his patch off to reveal a perfect, functional eye. "In case you didn't notice, that was a joke. I wear it because I think it makes me look cool plus it's always fun to see people comment on it and think I'm handicapped."

[Tsedas]

"You're only 13?! You're fucking tall as hell!" Tosh exclaimed in a hushed tone as he pointed at him. Tosh felt inadequate even more now knowing this person was younger than him. He heaved a sigh and ran his hand through his brown hair, almost looking a bit frustrated as he looked at the other boys shoes.

At the comment about Izigin plucking out Kawa's eye, Tosh went white as a sheet and looked at him in horror just in time to see him pull the patch off and show a working eye. Tosh rubbed the bridge of his nose, "Awesome, I'm gonna have nightmares of that particular mental image for weeks."

"Yeah I'm more concerned about you being out to get me at someones request than if your eye patch is fake or not. I also thought you were older than me." Tosh sighed a bit disappointed both in himself and in his genetics for not hitting puberty that early. He would be a chick magnet if he was a bit more like his Dad in appearances. Or at least Tosh hoped so. He certainly hoped Nabiki could find him more attractive that way.

"Fucking puberty." Tosh muttered as he looked at the ground.

[Niro]

"I'm not tall as hell, you're just short as hell." Kawa grinned as he watched Tosh basically freak out at finding out his age and knowing he was older than Kawa. "Ever since I could walk my dad, who is a bastard, decided to force to train me so me being taller might stem from that a bit."

Kawa laughed mentally as he saw Tosh go white and then rub his nose again. He commented on now having nightmares. "Meh, usually nightmares are caused because of stress and sometimes eating habits."

"Oh? And why would someone be after you?" Kawa asked with a serious face and a raised eyebrow. Even if he was older, Toshio was still his kouhai in a way and he would help the older teen if asked.

'Puberty does suck, doesn't it?' Kawa thought to himself and mentally shrugged.

[Tsedas]

"You tell my subconscious that." Tosh scoffed at the statement about stress and bad intake being the cause of nightmares. Either Tosh was just that fucked up in the head or he had a shitty life. Either way he was trying to keep from junk punching the guy for rubbing in his shortness.

"Well..." Tosh didn't really wanna say who was after him. Mostly because he didn't know. Then he remembered his family motto: "The less you know, the less you can testify to."

"Besides I don't think you came here to see if you could beat up faceless enemies. Speaking of which, aside from telling me you're my 'senpai'," Tosh made air quotes as he said that. He still didn't like the fact that Kawa was taller than him let alone younger. "Why did you want to meet me?"

If anything Tosh hoped his friends were still keeping an eye on him as he looked up at the taller boy. Tosh felt even worse about how tall the other boy was, considering Tosh was wearing heeled sandals like girls wear. *Even with my stupid petite heels, this is guy is taller. Why the hell couldn't puberty be that kind to me?!* Tosh mentally wailed at the facts, but he wanted to know what his friends would have to say when they discovered the big guy he was meeting was some 13 year old. Tosh snickered without realizing it as he thought about how their jaws would drop.

[Niro]

"Sorry I don't have the ability to go into your head and tell it that." Kawa shrugged as Toshio complained about nightmares. He doubted Toshio had a shitty home life seeing as he looked like he wasn't being beat or abused on a regularly basis. Maybe he was just fucked up a bit more than others.

"And the less who can testify on your side means you'll lose. Whatever, someone is after you for something you did. Doesn't matter to me." Kawa shrugged again. Seriously, Toshio was one weird kid. Nightmares and people wanting to hire hit men against him? He was only a genin, how could one get into such trouble?

"I wanted to meet you because I need to you ask Izigin-sensei to come and meet with me. I don't know his house address but he should know mine, him being my former teacher and all." Kawa answered as he saw Toshio snicker.

"Oh, what's so funny?"

[Tsedas]

"Oh, uh, I'm just thinking about the look on my friends faces when I tell them how old you are." Tosh cleared his throat as he motioned to about the park. "The less you know bit is mostly cause you're an outsider and frankly I don't know you that well."

Tosh pulled his hair back into a pony knob again. Tosh scratched the back of his neck as he let his head wobble a bit. "So basically you only reason you called me out was to get Izigin to pay you a visit? Couldn't you have just looked in the village registry. They should have that kind of thing written somewhere."

Tosh saw Ranma tossing his trash into a bin out of the corner of his eyes. He looked discreetly over Kawa's shoulder as he pretended to pop his neck. He saw Ayame was sitting on the bench Kawa had been on and Makoto was at the food stall Ranma had walked away from. Tosh righted his head as he licked his lips. "Why aren't you a member of his team anymore? You can't be a chuunin yet.... Can you?"

[Niro]

"Heh, that might be funny if you lead them to believe I'm older." Kawa grinned a bit. "Whatever, your shit is your shit. I'm not one to judge."

Kawa was starting to pick up on some subtle things about Toshio. He kept fiddling with his hair and scratching his neck when he was nervous. Tiny little things but they could tell a lot about a person. "Basically. I tried the registry but because of my rank I can't see anything but his registration number, name, and rank within the village. Also, it's nice to see his newest team member."

Kawa continued to watch as Toshio cracked his neck a bit and he eyes kind of narrowed as he looked over Kawa's shoulder and at something else. Either the kid had seen someone that freaked him out or he had brought some friends because of his earlier comments about being hunted down.

"I'm not a member of his team because some things had gone awry." Kawa shook his head. "Nope, not a chuunin yet but my team and I are done with the requirements and just need to take the exam. Going back to me not being on his team anymore, Izigin-sensei had a relapse or something and then my other two team mates fell off the face of the earth so I had to find another group of people to take me in."

"Oh, do you like nacos or tacos?"

[Tsedas]

Tosh blinked, a bit surprised at the last question. "Uh, yeah. Why, did you want to get something to eat?" Tosh was a bit baffled by the question, it had popped completely out of left field. Of course didn't know what was left or right field in concerns to this guy.

"Well my teammates are kind dropping into oblivion themselves. I think I'm gonna get shelved with a different team soon or something. I haven't really done much with Izigin either. It's kind like I know his name and little else aside from what he told me. I can try tell him about you but there's little else I can do." Tosh shrugged. It was the truth, he knew very little about his teacher and his teammates seemed to be gone. Tosh felt a bit down about it since the first team he had and it's looking like a bust.

"Seems like a trend for his teams doesn't it?" Tosh asked as he slipped his hands in his pockets and stared at the ground. He wished his teammates would show up again, it was nice being around his friends all the time but they kept talking about their teams, their missions, their trials trying to go higher through the ranks. Tosh felt like he was getting left behind somehow.

[Niro]

"Maybe eventually, I'm only a bit hungry right now. You?" Kawa asked with a tilt of his head. Kawa was usually the oddball.

"Yeah, I understand. We had another jounin after that but none of us liked him. Big Akimichi, scary motherfucker. Thought he was gonna bite my head off." Kawa shuddered as he pushed the thoughts of Haidou from his head.

"Yeah, seems like most of his members fall into family problems or something of the sort..." Kawa frowned and thought of it. He had been thinking for a while now, asking the kid something. "The reason I was wanting to see Izigin was because of that. I wanted to know if it was possible to add you, Toshio, and himself to my current squad. I'm 96 percent sure my team mates will say it's ok if I vouch for you two. What do you say about it?"

[Tsedas]

"Not re-" Tosh's stomach made a quiet noise. "A little..." Tosh said turning red in the face as he looked down. *Traitorous organs and their wants.* Tosh thought to himself as Kawa went on. What he said next made Tosh snap his eyes to the taller boys as he gaped.

"What?!" That certainly baffled Tosh, he was getting an invitation to be shifted into another team. "You want me on your team?" Tosh didn't think that it was something most people reacted to like he was, but he was barely on one team and now he was being, scouted for lack of a better word in his mind, for another team. It was rather shocking to him because he's practically green as grass when it came to teamwork but he always wanted to try.

"I mean, don't get me wrong!" Tosh started before Kawa got the idea in his head that he didn't want to be on his team. "I do want to be on a team, and mine is kind of dead in the water, but can I really do that? Just switch out like I'm changing shoes or something?"

Tosh didn't notice his friends were looking at him quizzically, neither did he notice they were practically right there behind Kawa listening in on the conversation.

[Niro]

Kawa looked dead on past Toshio for a second at the others gathering behind him. He had noticed the group slowly getting closer and pointed at the group as a whole. "You guys are fuckin' creepy."

Kawa looked back at Toshio and offered a grin. "Yeah, just let me clear it up with my team mates and I'll somehow drag Izigin's lazy ass into this and he'll agree. Somehow. Yeah, genins nowadays seem to be switching teams like some people who have amazing stamina rip off one condom and put on another."

"It doesn't matter if you're new to the whole thing. We're a decently experienced team who'll, hopefully and if they say no I'll punch Katashi in the balls, help you out even if you mess up." Kawa looked back at the group and gaze a quizzical look before he shook his head and turned back to Toshio.

"So, if they say yes, you want to?"

[Tsedas]

Tosh noticed his friends when Kawa commented on them and shook his head. "These are my friends, they were watching my back in case you happened to trying to steal my corpse as proof of the hit. They're cool, terrible at staying hidden but cool." Tosh said introducing the sole female as Ayame, the taller and more tanned teen as Ranma, and the last being a shabby dressed teen named Makoto.

"Hey, you gave us the safe sign, don't complain if we wanna know what's going on." Makoto said as the group came around and stood to the side of the two teens as they talked. At Kawa's mention of condoms and stamina they all looked at Tosh before snickering. Tosh looked at them as he leaned away a bit defensively. "What?"

"How was your date with Nabiki anyway?" Ranma sneered as Tosh looked away, red again returning to his cheeks. "None of you business is how it went." Ranma chuckled almost evilly as Ayame stated she'd just get the details from Nabiki eventually.

Tosh, wanting to change the subject quickly nodded to Kawa. "Sure, why not? Hey! We were about to get something, care to join us?" Tosh ventured to his friends trying to keep them from asking about Nabiki at least for now. The last thing he wanted was them knowing the details of his sex life, at least for now. *Man... I have a sex life! I'll bet Makoto hasn't done it yet though... Subaru has, the way he keeps getting threats like that he has to be hitting and quitting. Is Ayame even... No, don't even ask you'll just get an ass kicking.* Tosh shook his head before he looked to Kawa.

[Niro]

'I'm guessing at least one of them is a decently skilled ninja if he brought them along to make sure he wasn't beaten.' Kawa thought. The chick kinda reminded him of the older sister type who forced you into doing shit or else you'd regret it. Ranma seemed like the joker of the group and Makoto seemed like the kinda quiet kid but the kid who'd have your back no matter what.

"Not complaining, but you could have came up to us earlier." Kawa commented with a shrug and a wicked grin formed on his face at Ranma's comment.

'He is totally getting some from this Nabiki chick.' Kawa mentally chuckled as Toshio turned red again. He nodded at Toshio's comment about getting something to eat.

"There's a nice little restaurant by my house that's owned by a couple from Sunagakure so they have recipes from here and there. It's a nice place with a nice service."

[Tsedas]

"Sure, sounds great." Tosh nodded. Ayame faked some stomach pain as she pleaded for food like she was about to starve to death. Ranma just tickled her and she spazzed for a bit before slapping at him while he dodged. Makoto just shook his head before just pointing them while looking at Kawa. "Kids these days."

"Can't live with them, can't sell them on the black market." Tosh chipped in with a mock shrug like, 'what can you do'. Tosh and Makoto motioned for Kawa to lead they way. "So what are the people like on this team of yours?" Tosh asked as Ranma came back and Ayame looked flustered while she huffed and puffed a bit.

Ayame made a rude gesture at Ranma, he came back with a more sexual one and she slapped at him again. He dodged and the chase began again as Makoto sighed. "When we get to this place, lets not let them sit together." Tosh nodded in agreement at that.

[Niro]

"I am not sitting between them." Kawa immediately said as he saw the two. He would be caught in the crossfire, no doubt. "Yeah, kids nowadays. Not good for anything besides crying when they get a scrape."

Kawa started to walk out of the park, towards his house. The walk wouldn't be too far and they would be able to get a decent amount of conversation hopefully.

"Well, my first team mate is Katashi. He's a Hyuuga. He isn't one of those really stuck up ones though and can take a joke or six. He's really strong too, probably the strongest of the team unless I can blow his chest open or Shikari binds him good." Kawa easily withdrew a kunai and lightly cut a pattern into his hand. He held it above him for a second and concentrated chakra. A burst of chakra shot out that if it hit someone directly in the chest, neck, or face they'd be out. "My another team mate is Shikari. She's a Nara. Instead of using normal shadows she uses animals made from them and can switch them into normal clan techniques that can hurt. A lot."

"Meanwhile I'm the overall Ninjutsu specialist of the team. What I just used was a fuuinjutsu, really simple and I have scrolls of higher ranked ones at home. I'm Raiton affinitied so I'm naturally strong against Doton and weak against Fuuton." Kawa explained as they reached the establishment.

It was a diner with a bar and several booths and tables in it with several staff around. About six people besides themselves were in there too so it wasn't empty. Kawa grabbed a booth at the far left end, away from everybody when he thought about Ranma and Ayame.

[Tsedas]

"Well... I use Ninjutsu and Taijutsu, never did bother with Genjutsu." Tosh shrugged as he walked beside Kawa. "I use Doton and the SKitter Step Style. Frankly I think without it, I'd be kind of cowardly in a close quarters fight." Tosh sighed as he knows that despite how much he knows about fighting and defending himself, his body can still lock up in a fight. Even after training with his giant of a father, Tosh still had his doubts about himself.

Entering the restaurant, Kawa got a booth away from everyone else. Looking back at Ranma who as holding his crotch suddenly as Makoto held Ayame back as she made a crude gesture with her middle finger at him. "You're such a pig sometimes Ranma, how did you ever get a girlfriend?"

"Guys, please behave." Tosh sighed as he tried to avoid making a scene in public. Sometimes he wished he had normal friends. Of course normal friends would have probably forced him to wear a dress just for their own amusement. Tosh slid into the seating next to Kawa, putting himself between Ayame and his new teammate. Makoto was next to Ranma, both of them sitting in the other booth..

Tosh tried to calm Ayame down as she listened to him more these days ever since Chiyo entered the picture. It was like she confided in him now that he was 'one of the girls'. Tosh patted her shoulder and leaned back in his seat, "Hoo boy. So what's good here?"

[Niro]

"Well, anything here is good from what I've tried and what I've heard from my neighbors." Kawa shrugged as he didn't even look to his menu. He already knew what he was getting. Kawa looked around and turned to Toshio.

"What kind of Doton? Defensive? Offensive?" Kawa asked. "Being Raiton, I'm mostly always attacking or if it's a one on one I'll play defensively. I don't use any actual taijutsu style but I might pick one up. Maybe Strong Fist or Shock Fist. Breaking bones or paralyzing the hell outta something."

Kawa waited a bit and then spoke to the group. "Does everybody have an idea of what they're getting so I can call a waiter over or no?" He asked as several people shuffled into the establishment and several more left.

[Tsedas]

Tosh looked over the menu as his friends did the same. Tosh had decided on something that should shut his stomach up. The brown haired teen looked at Kawa as he continued on. Tosh shrugged, "Mostly offensive Doton. I'm kind of learning stuff from my Dad at the moment. Honestly I've only thought up one jutsu one my own so far. I feel kinda bland sometimes."

"I'm ready to order." Tosh said in response to the question of being ready. His friends likewise spoke up about being ready. Tosh was starting to get thirsty more than anything with all the talking they were doing. He looked over the drink selection before deciding on something quickly.

"I've only been with Izigin a bit so I don't know how his training regiment is like. Have you bee through one before?" Tosh asked, wondering how much more Kawa knew about Izigin. He hasn't had much interaction with his teacher safe for some minor gatherings they attended as teams. He honestly felt a bit like an outsider when they talked about Izigin or Kawa's team since he was still pretty much an outsider. "Honestly I don't know what I could bring to your team."

Makoto lightly whacked Tosh on the back of his head and the girly teen made a rather unmanly noise before he turned to start yelling at his friend. Makoto merely shoved a finger in his face and gave him a stern look. "Stop belittling yourself. You're better at things than you think." Tosh wanted to protest but his mouth flapped like he was on auto pilot to reply but didn't have any proper audio output to respond with.

[Niro]

"That's good. We're a hyper/heavy offensive team anyway. I've started on my own jutsu too but it's hard to control. I can only do so much with it right now. Don't feel bland. Sometimes the blandest become the best." Kawa commented on Toshio's downing words.

"Alright then." Kawa called over a waiter and he asked for everyones' drinks and their food. Kawa ordered nacos. Yes, tortilla chips with cheesy goodness on the side to dip in while ordering a class of water to wash it down.

"Yeah. He won't go too hard on you because of his injuries so he might even get an assistant to help him because of it." Kawa shrugged. He seemed to be doing a lot of that today. Hopefully Ayame and Ranma wouldn't start their antics again during the waiting time.

Kawa chuckled when Makoto hit Toshio and told him, basically, to stop being a whiner.

"It doesn't MATTER what you can bring. We all bring something unique, even if we don't think it is. So, who's this Nabiki chick that was mentioned earlier?"

[Tsedas]

Tosh ordered some Tacos and his friends ordered their dishes. He listened to Kawa go on about the team and how blandness can turn into something more with time. Tosh had ordered lemonade to go with his meal and when the drinks arrived, the brown haried teen quenched his thirst.

At the mention of Nabiki, Tosh fidgeted a bit. "She's his girlfriend." Makoto said before taking a swig of his drink. Tosh was about to protest but Makoto gave him a look like, 'you're going to deny it'. Tosh just clapped his mouth shut as he nodded. "Yeah she's my girlfriend."

Tosh turned back to Kawa as he shrugged. "We met through Ayame and a buddy of mine that isn't here. We kind of just kicked it off, you know?" Tosh snorted as he smiled, remembering the blonde he'd become smitten with.

[Niro]

"Haha, yeah. Katashi kinda likes Shikari but he's too uptight t-well, was too uptight until I forced him to come true to himself." Kawa grinned as he ate. It was nice to hang out with a hopefully-new team mate and his friends. Even if they were a bit stalkerish.

Time passed as the group ate and messed around and soon the clock inside the restaurant rung Three o' clock P.M. Kawa looked to it and sighed.

"Alright, guys. I gotta go. Time to go get my ass handed to me by my dad in 'training.'" Kawa grumbled with air quotations. "Basically, it's just him kicking my ass in for a bit and then my mom actually teaching me a thing or two before I get healed up. Ciao."

Kawa got up from his seat, waved to the group and went to the counter. He handed over a decent-sized bill to a waiter and gave their table number before he walked out with a tiny grin on his face.

[Tsedas]

"Sounds like training with my Dad!" Tosh laughed before Kawa took off. He'd listened to him talk about the other team mates and all that during the time they'd spent together and actually looked forward to being around them. As Tosh finish munching on the last piece of the his third taco when the waiter approached them. "The other young man paid for you meal, so please take your time and enjoy."

Everyone just looked surprised before they nodded. Tosh finished chewing and looked at Makoto who merely shrugged before Ranma flicked an ice cube down Ayame's cleavage. She shrieked and flailed a bit as Tosh sighed and shook his head. "Ranma, you should behave before Ayame and Nabiki decide to put you in a dress like they did me."

Ayame glared at Ranma as she smirked, "That's a good idea Tosh, thanks. Ranma will make a great redhead." Ranma and Makoto both froze in horror before looking at each other. The two boys quickly scrambled out of their seats and ran as the Ayame and Tosh giggled.
