Ice Style Training

[uzumakiuchiha]

Miyako would stand in the dojo, waiting for his student, Hinata Amaya. but, he thought to himself, if anyone else were to show up he'd train them too.

As he waited, he would sit down and pull out a package of instant ramen, and begin to cook it over the small portable stove he carried for just that purpose.

It may have been training time but Hinata was asleep. She had taken to sleeping a lot, though not inside. Like usual she had snuck out and made herself a crude little shelter outside between a couple of trees. She was curled up inside, her fox toy clutched tightly to her chest. The chakra cat had taken to lying on the girl's hip, head resting on her side, but awake. Ruion, after all, didn't need sleep.

If you're looking for Hinata she's over here. Asleep. Though you'll have to wake her yourself. It was almost a challenge, and it could be at times, especially when Hinata was exhausted.

[uzumakiuchiha]

Miyako would jump at hearing the voice reverberate in his head, spilling his ramen. He looked down in despair. "NOOO!!!!" As his precious ramen seeped into the floor, he sighed, stood up and started to where he now knew his student was. after walking through the forest for a few moments, he quickly found the shelter she had made for herself. He crouched down at the entrance, grabbing a small stick. He promptly began poking her in the side with it. "hey....hey......hey......" he would shout everytime he poked her. when her eyes opened slightly, he stopped poking for a second. but then her eyes closed again. He sighed and thought for a second. He chuckled slightly and made a handsign. water would condensate from the air and then splash onto Hinata.

The moment someone poked Hinata with a stick she lashed out with her hand in an attempt to grab the stick. If successful she'd then roll over and tuck said stick to her chest. Though if she wasn't she'd still roll over. Unfortunately rolling over wouldn't do anything, for a large... something, of water was soon dumped onto her head. With a snarl she lunged towards Miyako, kunai in hand. Though once she realized who it was she simply squeezed past him and hissed. "Do NOT wake me up you jerk."

She then flopped down by the base of a tree, arms crossed, and glared at him. "Next time I see you, and you're asleep, I'll put bugs in your bed." The look in eyes said she was serious as well. "What the hell do you want?"

[uzumakiuchiha]

Miyako couldnt stop laughing. he slumped against a tree. and when she mentioned him sleeping he instantly stopped. he looked at her, and glared. "no you wont. if you ever see me asleep, you run, because i wont be asleep for long, and when i wake up, it wont be me." he sighed, "I cant sleep. If i do, my other side comes out. and if that happens, you get out and hide. ill be able to find you again later. For now though, its time for you're training."

[Selena]

Hinata snorted. "I'll still put bugs in your bed. I'm not afraid of you. So threats won't help." She continued to sit there, arms crossed, glaring. "And if you didn't sleep you'd either be dead, or so tired you couldn't move." She then grunted, stood up, and began to walk in the opposite direction of the training area. "Besides. You'd probably be better off training a dog. Though even a dog might not listen to you." Well seems like her temper was getting the better of her this morning. Probably a mistake, but she didn't much care at the moment.

[uzumakiuchiha]

Miyako thought for a moment. words didn't seem to be working, so he only had one recourse, and that was to use a show of force. as she turned to walk away he made handsigns, "Ice Style: Hailstorm!" blue balls of energy would fly from around him and towards Hinata's legs, freezing her in place. "Now listen to me. I have my ways of not having to sleep. i could have killed you any of number of times before without batting an eye. you arent as strong as you think you are. dont get my wrong, you will eventually be a force to be reckoned with, but right now, you're just a kid. Ruion can't save you from everything. If you don't want the akatsuki to take her, you better get strong enough to stop them. Thats where I come in. i will train you whether you like it or not. it can be easy, in the dojo, or i can constantly attack you out here and have you do everything on your own. think about that while you wait for your legs to melt"

[Selena]

Hianta's entire body tensed the moment the ice encased her legs in a cold prison. Her head slowly turned and her glare was hot, burning, and it would have been dangerous if she hadn't just graduated for the academy. "You'll regret that. One of these damn days you'll regret that." She then crossed her arms and tilted her head, watching as the ice began to melt faster than normal. She blinked, a bit confused as to why it would be melting that fast and she gave Ruion's mind a prod. The giant feline was simply watching though, not saying anything. This was Hinata's battle.

"When has life ever been easy for me. I never had a father or a mother or any family to baby me." She jerked her body in an attempt to pull a leg out of the ice-case, but was still stuck. "The only one I had was my fox." She jerked to the other-side. "And now she's gone as well." Hinata hissed in frustration and pulled out a kunai and began to jam it into the ice and pry small chunks off. "The only one I need is Ruion. I don't see why I came here." She was finally loose enough to escape, and she did so, and once out she quickly grabbed the low branch of a tree and swung up into it.

"I'm not just a kid. I got the top scores in all my classes. But everyone thought I cheated. They academy instructors even forgot I existed and forgot to assign me to a squad." She moved up a couple branches higher. "So why should I think that some stranger actually cares about me? You're probably just like everybody else. They lie, and then they dump you on the side of the street."

[uzumakiuchiha]

Miyako looked up at her. " you got the top scores you say? so what? Academics don't have anything to do with intelligence. And you probably did cheat anyway." he scratched the back of his neck. "Either way, prove it to me. from what i've seen you and your so called "Demon" are nothing but weak crybabies. you think my life's been easy. do you even know why im after the akasuki? i told you, ive been where you are. but unlike you, i had the strength to deal with it instead of running away." he turned around and started walking, but he called back "If you think you have what it takes, ill be in the dojo. if not, go home to mope, like you have all you're life."

[Selena]

When Miyako began to walk away there was the sharp whizzing sound of Kunai being thrown. None of them hit him though, but they landed in a perfect "hall way" in front of him, with one in the very center as if it was blocking his path. There was no sound, but an anger thicker than syrup seemed to perculate throughout the branches and leaves of the trees. The animals around had grown quiet, and the birds no longer tweeted.

The only sound was the soft 'shhh' of the wind, but even that seemed muted. "You're on." The voice seemed to echo throughout the forest, as if it came from multiple directions.

[uzumakiuchiha]

Miyako smiled and continued to walk towards the dojo, without looking behind him to see if she was following. He entered the dojo and sat down in the middle. he motioned for her to sit across from him.

[Selena]

Hinata followed Miyako along the roof-tops, making sure he didn't see her. When he entered the dojo she groaned. She hated those places. "You think I'm gonna train in there? How often do you run into an enemy in someplace like that?" She crossed her arms and tapped her foot on the roof of the dojo. "Though you'll probably just freeze me again if I don't."

[uzumakiuchiha]

Miyako continued to wait for her, sitting on the floor. His breathing was even and he seemed calm.
