[For Konoha Squad One members only]  "Ho? I get to teach the little ones. How interesting!~"Chouhiko sat comfortably in his squeaky wooden chair. His back faced the pristine glass through which he could see the vast, lively village he administered. He leaned over onto his smooth desk, holding a small folder in his left hand, opened, and a small pile of forms in his right hand. He smiled as he placed the folder onto the desk in front of him, then leaned backwards and relaxed. The chair gave its usual screech, but Chouhiko did not mind. He felt immersed in his duty for once. The forms that he gazed at from under the umbrage of his goofy-looking hat were detailed reports on the Genin he would soon teach. The first form showed a picture of a stern looking boy with long, black hair and interesting white robes. The appearance of his eyes immediately told Chouhiko that he was a Hyuga. Knowing his village's clans well, the Shodai Hokage understood that this Hyuga fledgling was not a mere child. Rather, he was the heir to his clan, the son of the head of the Main Branch. Chouhiko would have to tread carefully when teaching him. If he did not mold the boy into a powerful and honorable shinobi, the Hyuga clan would be breathing angrily down his neck. "Yare Yare, I already have a lot on my plate," he sighed, placing the Hyuuga's report on the table next to the folder. He glanced at the next Genin. This one rivaled the potential of the other. Chouhiko knew that he was examining the reports of an Uchiha, a clan known for their spectacular bloodline and respected for co-founding the village. The boy looked like most other Uchiha. Chouhiko could see a hidden fire in his eyes, even though he was looking at a mere photograph. This "Uchiha Ion" might prove to also be a handful, with certain consequences for messing up his future. Another Genin that required skillful, cautious handling. "Geez. No one makes it easy on me, now do they?" He remarked, placing the Uchiha's form down on top of the Hyuga. The last form in his hands was most peculiar, but Chouhiko recognized the subject. The Genin--Heishi Noa--was a refugee Konohagakure had accepted, one who fled from Kumogakure no Sato. Apparently, the Raikage had wanted to remove Noa because of the threat his bloodline had possessed. His recent affiliation with Konoha gave it more potential military strength. Noa, with his different physical skin tone, appearance, and background, would be an odd one to train. Chouhiko feared possible conflicts with his teammates. After placing Noa's form on top of the other two, he pulled out a drawer in the desk, took out three sheets of paper, some ink, and a pen. He began slowly writing out three letters while humming to himself. After twenty minutes, he finished. The documents read: With a snap of his fingers, an ANBU member suddenly appeared, kneeling in respect to the Hokage. "Hokage-sama," he said, his voice portraying strength and steadfast devotion to his duty. "Hello!~ Could you please deliver these letters to these three Genin?""Uh...Hai," the ANBU replied, secretly shocked and surprised he had been given such a low-level assignment. He was hoping for something more. "Thanks a bunch!" Chouhiko said, waving off the ANBU with a laid-back smile. The ANBU departed with a puff of smoke. He would hopefully deliver the letters very quickly. "Well, I guess I'd better head over there." Chouhiko said, opening the lowest drawer on the right side of the table. He withdrew a bottle, full of sake, and placed in inside the pocket of his outer black coat. He then stood up and walked out of his office, humming as he strutted to the exit of the village. The time was 4:30 PM. Talk about short notice. |

It was around 5 o'clock when he got the letter from the Anbu man. Apparently his squad had finally been formed, and their sensei was the Hokage himself. Excitement ran through his veins as he quickly darted out of his home not telling his parents, or anyone where he was running off to. They had to meet at the training grounds at 6 o'clock, but that was all the information that he was given. He didn't know who his teammates were only that he was to meet the sensei at the appointed time. Grinning wildly he leaped on top of a nearby building, and started to sprintjump towards the training area.
The first Hokage wanted to train him. Him the noble heir of the Uchiha clan was going to be trained by the strongest ninja in their village. He was already on his way to becoming the greatest ninja in the world, and no one would stop him. The heir knew that he was stronger than most, and he was only rivaled by a few. He hoped that his team was strong enough to earn his respect though he doubted that they would. The only way to gain his respect was by beating him, and only one clan in the village stood a chance at beating him, and that was the Hyuga. He respected them for their powerful techniques..
Leaping from building to building he soon came upon the training grounds. It was about 5:30 now so he was a bit early, but he was eager to stop. He saw the Hokage already there waiting for the rest of the team, and he landed on a nearby shuriken log standing on it looking down at the man. "So when can we start Sensei?" he said to the man smiling.

As always, Iris had been in the open area between the old style homes of the Hyuga district, training just as much as he always did. Every minute of every day was spent pushing his mind and body to their limits to grow as strong as he could be. He was currently trading open palmed strikes with his father, desperately trying to overpower his elder, yet his young body and lack of true experience would not allow such a thing for many years. Sweat dripped from his brow as he frantically struck with deadly precision time after time, though each one was blocked by a nearly identical style from his father, the head of the clan. Although he normally would have continued until it was time for sleep to prepare for doing the same tomorrow, this day would be different. Their training would be interrupted by a fellow Hyuga walking over so stand beside the two only a few feet away, bowing as he spoke without standing, a sign of unending respect for the leader of the clan and the next in line of the title.
"I apologize for the interruption, but a letter was just delivered by the ANBU. It is addressed to you, Airisu-San."
He would remain bowed, not standing until he was acknowledged and allowed to leave. The two would stop dueling and Iris would look up at his father, silently asking permission to stop training and read the letter. A nod from the elder would let him know that it was allowed, which Iris would thank with a nod in return before turning to the side to grab the letter. Opening it delicately, he would read it slowly, carefully taking in each word it had upon it. Immediately, a grin of excitement would sweep across his face as he saw that the Hokage himself would be his new sensei. Though upon reading the last sentence of the letter, he sighed with disappointment, placing the letter away and handing it back to the one who brought it to them.
"You are free to go." Iris' father would say to the branch servant that had brought them the letter, though his eyes remained on Iris the entire time. Curious about the obvious joy followed by a complete lacking of it, he spoke to his son. "What is it, Airisu?"
"A notice from my new sensei, the Hokage himself, to meet up in just short of one and one half of an hour for our first meeting. Though he repeated himself in his writing. Either there is an idiot on the team, or he has been drinking again."
A soft chuckle would emit from Iris for a split second, yet it would quickly vanish with what seemed like fear as he saw his fathers face. Having to repeat oneself was something that never occurred amongst the Hyuga, their elitist and hardcore views on power leaving no room for error. Repeating was a sign of belittling someone's intelligence or underestimating their dedication to listen. Iris bowed before his father without another word and ran off, having no time to waste. It was rare that his father and him actually exchanged words, for the pride of the Hyuga made many actions obvious without explanation, and this was even more true with their rare ability to read basic intentions just from looking into one another's eyes. Iris would rush out of the compound after grabbing his few supplies from his room, certain that if he was late, he would suffer severe punishment, as this was what he was accustomed to. Though arriving early was just as bad, something that could ruin the detailed plans of a team or bring an overly prepared person into danger. Leaving the district, he would quickly rush away toward the designated area. It would be a while before he arrived, thanks to the massive size of the village hidden in the leaves. Arriving almost a half hour early, he would sit over a hundred meters away and just watch, waiting until at least someone else arrived. Once he saw a saw a second figure approach, he hopped up and walked over. It was the heir to the Uchiha throne, one of the few people that Iris would consider a "friend." Pacing over slowly with his arms limp at his sides, wearing traditional robes and the cloak bearing the eight trigrams symbol upon the back, Iris would speak out just after the Uchiha spoke, expressing his anxiousness to begin.
"Immediately, I hope." |

"Wow! You gotta be kiddin' me! The Hokage! This is amazing! Hokage-Sama wants to train me? Me of all people? Why? I mean, really? You gotta be kiddin' me! There's no way. Not Hokage-Sama." These were the words that escaped Noa Heishi's mouth as he stood in front of his closed, front door reading over the letter given to him by the ANBU member. It was the most amazing thing that had ever happened to him. His reaction could best be compared to that of a teenage girl recieving a personal invitation to her favorite singer's concert. A six feet tall man walked into the living room area and glanced in the boy's direction. It was Noa's father. His father walked over to him, stopping three feet in front of Noa. He easily towered the boy at six feet tall and his wrestler-esque build made him look all the more menacing, or at least to Noa. "Do you have any idea how much noise you're making? Tell me what this is about, and I hope it's good." For a moment Noa began to cower under the suppression caused by his father's voice, however; pride and dignity brought his confidence to surface as he adressed his father, "It's a letter from the Hokage. He wants to be my sensei!" The man before him cocked his eyebrow high in amazement. "Wow! That's an honor. Were are you to meet him?" Noa re-read the letter in his hands to obtain the information he'd forgotten. "The training grounds on the outskirts of the village," Noa replied excitedly. "Well," his father began, "if I remember correctly, that area is about twenty five minutes from here if you walk. You should be there by five twenty-five if you leave now." He would watch as his son stood there idly. "What are you waiting for? To be early is to be on time and to be on time is to be late. Now hurry!" Immediately Noa would run up stairs and get dressed: black trousers held up by a black belt, black footwear, black forehead protector, and a red, sleeveless shirt underneath his black, turtle-neck overcoat. He was soon out the door and on his way to the rendezvous point. He wasn't in a hurry, for he knew he would get there before five forty, but, for some odd reason, he was still worried. He was worried about how the Hokage would view him. How would his new squadmates view him? I really hope that my teammates are average joes just like me. I just can't understand people that have important roles in society. Or, better yet, I can't understand people with "special" histories and backgrounds. Time passed by as he lost himself in his thoughts. Before he knew it, he was at the designated area. Hokage-Sama was off in the distance and a few feet in front of him were two young boys. "G-Good evening Hokage-Sama." Aw crap, I already messed up. Man, I hope my squadmates are as normal and average as me. It would make this experience a whole lot easier. Little did Noa know that he and his squadmates all had something "special" going in in their lives. |

 "Looks like all the kiddies are here..."Chouhiko had reached the training grounds before any of the Genin, even with his strutting. He mumbled while counting each Genin that showed up. The first was the Uchiha, who lept onto a nearby shuriken log. In response, the Hokage jumped, although this reaction was somewhat faked. He had known that the child was approaching, yet decided to be entertaining to the young one and act surprised. He was surprisingly early. "So when can we start Sensei?""Ara? Anxious, aren't cha? Well, we--"Before Chouhiko could finish, he was cut off by the second Genin to arrive. "Immediately, I hope."This time, the Hokage actually did jump. He did not sense Airisu approach at all, since he had been listening carelessly to Uchiha Ion. "Heh heh, you're a bunch of energetic ones, eh?" he remarked, smiling and chuckling. He did not dislike their enthusiasm. It was certainly a different approach to training then his own. Finally, the third and last member of Squad One arrived. The refugee of-sorts from Kumogakure no Sato, Heishi Noa, approached nervously. Chouhiko watched him silently, already aware of his difference in attitude compared to his more punctual teammates. But timing was not important, since they were all plenty early. "G-Good evening Hokage-Sama.""Good evening!~" he replied happily, his eyes closed as his mouth curled into a friendly grin. He began walking slowly toward the middle of the field, moving past Noa and farther away from the three Genin. He stopped in the middle and turned around on one foot. He was completely sober and his movements were already weird. "Uchiha Ion, Hyuga Airisu, Heishi Noa--now that you are all here, I can begin.~"He paused to look at all of them. His amiable grin turned into a devilish grin as he plotted what to do with them. His eyes lightened up when he decided how to "play" with them. "Now that you're all Genin, I have to test you in order to see where you currently stand. So, we're gonna play a little game!"Chouhiko pulled out the bottle of Sake that he took from his office and pulled off the cork. He took a quick chug and then looked back at his underlings. "You have until midnight tonight to steal this bottle from me. You should try to steal it before I finish it, but it doesn't make any difference. If you dont...then you'll receive a punishment."Chouhiko looked from one Genin to the next, monitoring their reactions. Would they tackle their challenge with determination, or would they complain, or would they even be afraid? The Shodai Hokage, leader of the Akimichi Clan, had no idea what to expect from these random bunch of children. "And...start!" he announced, taking another gulp from the bottle. |

Listening to his sensei talk he smiled slightly as the man jumped a bit at his arrival. However while the Hokage was paying attention to him the next person of his squad a Hyuga boy was able to sneak up on him, and scare him even more. It was amusing to watch their so strong sensei get scared so easily. It didn't take long for the last member of their team to show up. Ion didn't know much about him, but he did know that they Hyuga boy was the heir to his own clan, as Ion was heir to his clan. This team was powerful enough with just himself, and the Hyuga boy. They wouldn't need the other one, so he wondered why he was necessary.
Listening to his sensei talk to them he evaluated the personalities of his other two teammates. The Hyuga was a lot like himself which he could respect, but the other boy seemed so nervous. Ion could tell that he was going to hold them all back. "Listen we have six hours to get it back from him. Our best bet is to surround him, and then enclose. I can hit from afar, and just from speculation of your clan my Hyuga friend you can hit him up close. So why don't we mix, and match our abilities to catch him off guard. However I know nothing of your abilities kid so do what you can. Lets do this quickly because I don't feel like getting punished. Oh, and my name is Ion Uchiha heir to my clan." he said to the others, and he smiled at the Hyuga boy.
Staring back at his sensei he knew that he wouldn't be able to play around with him. This was the strongest ninja in their village so holding back would be useless. Activating his Sharingan his coal black eyes changed to a deep red with one tomoe each. It was the most basic level of his bloodline inheritance. It would allow him to tell if any of his teammates were under a genjutsu, and see the flow of chakra in a person. Smiling he reached behind his back, and quickly took out his giant Fuma Shuriken. Stealthily attaching a wire to it he smiled, and he launched it at his sensei.
He would be able to control the movement, and path of the shuriken this way using the Manipulate Shuriken Technique it was one of his favorites. His plan was to tie up his sensei, and then have the shuriken lodge itself in a tree to prevent him from moving. Grabbing the wire that was attached to his arm he began to pull on it, and maneuver the shuriken so that it was going in a elliptical pattern around the Hokage. He was of course moving with it kind of like a kite.

Iris saw the third member approach from the corner of his eye, his Byakugan having already been active as it often was, a way for him to train it further and increase his stamina with it. Weak body movement, confidence lacking in his eyes, mumbling when he spoke. This kid was everything that the Hyuga trained their young not to be. Iris sighed heavily and shook his head with disapproval, though it quickly snapped back to attention and focused on the Hokage as he spoke, listening closely to what he had to say. Iris glanced at the bottle, pondering the entire situation in his head. He was playing over every possible detail in his head: how long they had, the best way to get it, what happened if they didn't get it before he finished the liquid within. Though all these thoughts imploded to nothingness the second that Iris heard the word "start." Just as soon as he was ready for action, Ion was already mentioning his plan, and though they had never worked together so their teamwork would be entirely lacking, his idea was the best they could come up with. The ninjutsu specialist would attack at range while the taijutsu expert would go in close, ensuring no safe distance for their target.
"Hai."
It was the only word that would escape Iris' mouth, having already been introduced by the Hokage's statement, while not laying an eye on the third kid. In his eyes, this kid was useless, yet such speeches would be saved for a moment when they were not on a timed mission. Iris knew what he should do and thanks to his Byakugan, he would be able to keep an eye on the others so that at the very least, he could work with them based on their own actions, though he would likely ignore Noa unless he surprised him by doing something useful. Racing forward, his loose clothing and the cloak gifted to him by his father, the head of the Hyuga clan, would flutter violently behind him as he rushed forth. He would carefully ensure to avoid the hidden wires that his eyes picked up from Ion's own attack as he ran at an outward arcing angle, aiming to come in a few meters away from the Hokage's blind spot. Of course, he knew that this would not be easy, so he was expecting nothing to go their way. However, nothing would be able to stop the heir to the Hyuga throne, and he was certain that the Uchiha was just as stubborn and determined as himself.

Aw man, a Hyuga and an Uchiha. Just my luck. These guys are anything but Average Joe-ey. Noa was slightly disappointed. He wanted at least one squadmate that he would be able to relate to. It kind of made of him feel out of place too, for it was Akimichi, Uchiha, Hyuga, and then him. Although he was down, the hokage returning his good evening immediately made his spirits rise. The large Akimichi rose to his feet and made his way towards an unknown destination somewhere behind Noa. The young Genin turned around so that his gaze could stay on his sensei. Noa listened as the Hokage began to speak. After giving the squad their objective, he gave them the signal that the task had began. Unfortunately, the Uchiha would assume the leadership position, telling them what to do as well as what he was going to do.
He listened as the Uchiha spoke. He watched as he felt the vibe of the Hyuga. Like a few of the villagers Noa had met in his short life, he could feel a vibe emitting from them both. Although he couldn't yet tell what form of prejudice it was, but he suspected that they were biased towards already. He let out a short sigh as the Hokage gave the cue to begin. At that moment Noa's attitude and atmosphere would change to that of confident warrior. Whether or not Hokage-Sama or his squadmates could feel this change, Noa didn't know and, quite frankly, he didn't care. His squadmates had judged him already and that small tinge of jerkwad would begin to arise from his personality. He wouldn't speak. He would continue the charade that he was overly nervous and lacked confidence.
Unlike his two squadmates however, Noa wouldn't immediately engage his target. He was a thinker, something of an analyzer. He would perform a short, quick sprint, stopping about fifteen feet to the left of the Uchiha. Upon stopping he would remove the black overcoat and tuck it into the back of his pants. For now, he would examine the battle field, removing six shuriken from the holster on his right thigh, three in each hand-- each hole occupied by the index, middle, and pinky finger.

 "Ah...they're trying to flank me. How cute!~"Chouhiko stood still, amused while watching the squad's aggressive start. The Uchiha dove toward him in a linear charge, while the Hyuga veered off to Chouhiko's left, trying at a flank. Noa seemed more reserved, preferring to analyze the Hokage rather than charging in preemptively. However, Noa would still run toward the Uchiha before stopping abruptly and changing course, heading a bit to Chouhiko's right. Uchiha Ion even threw a large Fuma Shuriken at Chouhiko. The Shodai Hokage could not discern whether the projectile was to force him to move or to actually inflict damage. In either case, it wouldn't do much of anything. "La dee da..." the Hokage hummed as he side stepped the Shuriken to the left. Simultaneously, he formed the handseals for the Kawarimi no Jutsu--the substitution technique--and prepared to switch positions with the Shuriken Log that Uchiha Ion had lept upon during his energetic entrance. As the Fuma Shuriken whizzed by and the Genin came ever closer, Chouhiko would caught a shimmer out of the corner of his eye. Ho? A wire? Manipulating the shuriken, eh? Smart kid. As expected of an Uchiha."Chouhiko's side step brought him closer to Hyuga Airisu. He was also still close enough to the wire for it to wrap around him. Doing so would not make too much of a difference, since a substitution was prepared. It was not like Chouhiko would completely raise his guard or go entirely serious on a bunch of Genin. He did want to play around with his students, after all. Immediately after his side step, Ion had pulled the wire to curve the shuriken's path. It formed an elliptical shape, circling around the Hokage. Eventually, it would fully bind him, the wire completely restricting his movements. His arms would be tightly pressed against his sides, with the bottle of sake still in his right hand. "Not bad, not bad. But no!~" he remarked cheerfully. Once he finished speaking, his figure combusted into a cloud of smoke. The wire that had once constricted him now bound a wooden log, one with scratches from shuriken impacts and Ion's footprints on top. Behind the Genin stood Chouhiko, now where the log was once embedded into the earth

It didn't take long for his Hyuga teammate to take action, and they started their flank attack. His attack had succeeded in wrapping up the Hokage, and he was actually kind of excited. That was before the poof of smoke appeared, and the Hokage had used the Body Replacement Technique to change his own body with that of the shuriken log he had just been on. He needed to get that bottle, and they had to act quickly, because he didn't want to sustain any punishment from the Hokage. Staring at his other teammates he noted that the boy Noa had done nothing. Looking at him in disgust he wanted to yell at the boy, but figured that it could be saved for later.
Yanking on his wire he brought back the Fuma Shuriken to his own person, and put it back in it's strap that was located underneath his cloak. Instead he looked at the other two, and jumped backwards observing his opponent. He was now between his two teammates, and he had taken up the leader position, but he figured that him, and the Hyuga would share that spot. "Hmmmmmmm we have to keep him still somehow. I could launch a fireball at him, but that would deplete my chakra faster than I care to have. I almost had him that time so I am thinking if I can detain him again with a similar technique then you can get up close, and take that bottle." he said the plan already formulating in his mind.
However with their Sensei using the replacement technique that would make things even more difficult instead he would have to stop him from using his hands to make hand signs. Leaving his giant Fuma Shuriken strapped to his back he pulled out an assortment of smaller shuriken, and these already had the wire's attached to them. It had almost worked last time so this time he knew that it would have to work. So he quickly launched the four shuriken that he was holding towards the Hokage. Two from each hand, and once they were close enough he started moving his hands in various motions making it look like he was making hand signs.
He was making the wires wrap around the Hokage's arms so that he could constrict his movements, and prevent him from using anymore jutsu. Then he pulled harshly on the wires, and caused the shuriken, and the wire's to constrict. The shuriken buried themselves into the ground, and he waited to see if his attack would work so the others could make their move.

[[OOC @ Noa: Mind explaining how your characters' mother gave him info on the most well protected and least known clan fighting style in the world especially since the villages were just founded and your character was only a few months old? Not to mention nobody knows about the Hokage's drunken style either...]]
Iris was seeing the entire battlefield before him thanks to his Byakugan, not needing to look forward to see his target like the other two. For this reason, he turned his head to look at Noa, glaring dangerously at the failure of a ninja. They had a set time limit to act and he was simply standing around and watching rather than attempting to help. Growling quietly, Iris watched as the target that he was rushing in toward was captured, only to be replaced by a log. Sighing, Iris knew that it wouldn't be this easy, yet he always hoped it would be. The Hokage had appeared behind Ion, so Iris quickly changed course, now directly opposite from their target with Ion between himself and the Kage. Running foward, he would duck down directly behind Ion to make himself completely hidden from Chouhiko's sight. He would press his hands together to form a few quick seals as created a regular Bunshin whom would appear to step on Ion's shoulder to leap over him from behind, soaring through the air in attempts to crash down on the target whom his partner had attempted to bind once more.
Ion would feel no weight on his shoulder as the regular clone technique was merely an illusion with no substance, though this same fact would also let the Hokage notice the detail easily and know it was a clone even without a doujutsu. Of course, this was part of Iris' plan, for the Kage to realize it was a harmless clone, one that could not possibly inflict any sort of damage. That was because Iris too had leaped forward from behind Ion, yet not stepped on his shoulder, hiding behind the clone as it moved through the air. He hoped the Kage would realize that dodging a clone was a waste of energy, in which case the real one would be right behind him, ready to deliver an open palmed Juken strike to end this fight. Although this kid was miles behind the Hokage in terms of skill, knowledge and power, while also having to engage in hand-to-hand combat to be at all effective, there was one benefit he had greater than any of his peers. The Jyuken could take down someone of any skill level with a single successful strike, as the internal organs did not get any tougher as one grew stronger. Iris, just as nearly all other Hyuga, would use this powerful fighting style to his advantage.

Noa had a feeling this assault wouldn't work. It was just like the previous attempt at restraining Hokage-sama. The principle was good. The execution was above par. However, the thought was too primitive. That was the reason Noa decided not to attack and watch instead. He knew the plan would fail and he wanted to see what everyone would do. Maybe it was becuase their Kekkei Genkai gave them greater sight that they lost the ability of insight. Maybe it was because their Kekkei Genkai gave them so much power that they were used to not needing to think, but his allies were approaching this task as if they were actually on the Hokage's level. Winning against someone of this calibur would be like performing magic. You would have to have a slight of hand, effective distractions, and you would have to put on show. All these attributes were involved in Noa's plan. However, it seemed as if his allies were approaching this very one-dimensionally. Not that Noa expected any of them to successfully obtain the sake bottle-- he was pretty sure the Hokage didn't expect them to obtain it either-- but he did expect his squad to at least impress the Hokage with the thought process that they put into retrieving this item.
Alright. So, because of their rash decisions we have no idea what to expect of the movements of Hokage-sama. I don't know what to expect of the movements of Hokage-sama. Which is bad 'cause it seems as if I'm the brains of this team. Well, I'm pretty sure I'll have to adjust fire. Since I can't observe his movements from afar I'll have to experience them up close and personal. Which means...
Noa would prep the six shuriken currently in hands to be thrown. He would bring them all up to his neck and throw them towards the Hokage, all except the sixth which he place in his left pocket. He would then follow the Akimichi's movements as closely as he possibly could, for he would dash towards the Hokage and perform a flurry of rush punches. These punches would serve two purposes. The first purpose was to attempt to drive the Hokage's attention towards him while his allies found an opening. The second purpose of this feeble attack was to fuel the charade that he was naive kid incapable of being on this team. If he kept this charade up long enough he would be able to spring his real plan very soon.

 "Hm? Do I already sense tension? My, oh my. How sad."The Shodai Hokage caught a glimpse of the subtle hostility among the teammates. The heirs of their respective clans, pompous and assured of their perfection, seemed to project the assault's fault onto Noa. Chouhiko saw things far differently from his more experienced perspective. The children had over fives hours to complete the task. He felt that Noa's hesitation was acceptable. The Hyuga and Uchiha made the wrong move, attempting to rush the Hokage from the start. However, Noa was not doing what he wanted, either. In fact, Chouhiko had hoped that they would first take a moment to fall back, hide themselves, form a strategy, then ambush the Hokage. Honestly, they did have all evening. Quickly pondering these tiny mistakes and mishaps, Chouhiko frowned. Makes me wanna drink,, he thought as he toke another chug of Sake. The dryness of the liquor burnt his throat, a feeling akin to his burning disappointment. Well, perhaps that was too exaggerated. But he hoped the children would not be so harsh with one another. As Chouhiko took delight in his alcohol, the trio continued to apply pressure. Airisu, standing behind Ion, duck behind him to conceal the activation of the Clone Technique. With the illusion leaping off of the Uchiha's shoulder, Airisu would use it as a diversion to hide his own body behind that of his clone. Simultaneously, Ion would throw more wired shuriken, and Noa would charge forth with a series of random, rushed punches. While Airisu's plan made initial sense, he might not have taken into account that Ion had thrown wired shuriken. Chouhiko knew that the newest batch of projectiles, aimed his way, would also be wired. Moreover, he had enough experience to recognize that deflecting wired shuriken would not stop the wires from being able to constrict him. With Noa also charging forward, Chouhiko would surprise Airisu. Chouhiko would actually move, taking a giant leap off the log, landing diagonally left of its position. In his aerial movement, he would noticed the real Airisu hiding behind the clone's figure. Once he landed, he was now five meters behind Ion's right side. When he landed, Chouhiko stumbled a bit. He held his hands out to catch his balance as his sandals crushed blades of grass, attempting to find sturdy ground. But what was sturdier than the earth? It was a clear sign. The Sake Shinobi would soon awaken. "Ara? Did I really drink that much?" Chouhiko questioned. He suddenly felt hotter and dizzier. The Genin had no idea what a dilemma they would be in if Chouhiko managed to finish his drink. |

The Hokage soon jumped in the air after taking a drink from the Sake bottle, and Ion watched as all of their attempts failed once again. Becoming frustrated he grabbed the wires that were attacked to the shuriken that he had been previously manipulating, and he launched them full force towards the Hokage. Not aiming for him, but merely launching them past him. The shuriken lodged themselves in the tree's that were behind him, and he smiled with his red Sharingan eyes. That trick hadn't worked, but he didn't expect it to work a second time. He needed to catch this guy off guard, but he couldn't do it by himself.
"Team meeting! Quickly." he said to the other two before sending a burst of chakra to his feet, and jumping back out of earshot of the Hokage. A plan was formulating in his mind, and as he waited for the other two to join him he deactivated his Sharingan so it wouldn't drain his chakra. His long black hair went down well past his waist, and he was already thinking of his next move. However while he knew his, and the Hyuga's strengths he couldn't tell a thing about the other guy. He didn't have much respect for the other guy either as all he had done so far was send random punches at the Hokage.
We need to formulate a plan because what we are doing isn't working, and if we are gonna make this work I suppose I will have to stomach that Noa guy.. he thought to himself as he waited for the other two to come to his side so that they could talk. Without even checking to see if they had gotten there yet he figured he would start. "We need to formulate a plan so we can get that god forsaken bottle. I have one, but I wanna hear your ideas as well." he said to the others.

Iris had been watching as the whole team attacked in their own way, something that normally was fine for him. As a Hyuga, he was able to see what was happening across the entire battlefield at all times, thus he could work his own plan in amongst it all without having to speak a word. Unfortunately, the others did have this ability, thus the whole idea of teamwork was not quite as efficient. Iris came down amongst a flurry of shuriken, spinning himself in the air kick the top of two shurikens and smack two more away as he came down, creating a small opening for himself to ensure that he would be unharmed. The Hokage had already avoided the attacks completely, thus messing it up further would have no ill consequences. Just as he was about to turn around, the Uchiha yelled for a team meeting, a thought that made Iris furious. Sighing heavily with annoyance, he leaped over toward him, deciding to suck it up and talk rather than attacking.
"This guy..." Iris said rather angrily as he extended an arm to his side to point at Noa, though his eyes remained on Ion. "Thinks he is smarter than us. Meanwhile, each time Hokage-Sama drinks, he becomes more worried... About us."
Iris stated, obviously confused by the situation. He did not know of any person that became cautious for the safety of others when intoxicated by any means. Not to mention, despite not knowing anything about the Akimichi clan, he did know that the Hokage was the only one of his clan he had ever seen that wasn't a fat tub of lard. Though it was only a few seconds before his uncertainty vanished and a smirk crept across his face. Speaking his new plan, he still would not lay eyes on Noa, seeming to speak only to Ion.
"We could stab him? The Hokage will be worried and want to get him medical attention right away. We take the advantage of him being caught off guard and distracted to take the bottle."
Iris said with a grin, having no problems with his own plan. Sure, it meant stabbing their own parter just to trick someone, using their own morals and value for life against them, but Iris was raised to believe that the mission was more important. It was obvious that Iris was feeling impatient, wanting to keep attacking to figure out all the weaknesses and potential openings of his opponent. He was a taijutsu specialist, which meant he did not really need to worry about running out of chakra during the fight, though he doubted that the other two had this benefit.
"That, or we keep attacking. Each sip is making him stumble more, which means even he won't quite be up to par to dodge all three of us."
