The Genin wandered down the village roads. He had left Haku and the two kittens at home just incase the large beast of a dog was out and about. More and likely Tsubasa was with Tesou but you never could be too sure. Eyes scanned the shops for someone to talk to. Hopefully someone familiar to annoy. Grin spread across his face slightly at the thought. Irrell didn't know weather or not to scream out loud in boredom or continue wandering. He stuck with wandering. Screaming would make him seem a tad on the insane side.
Hands were by his side as he continued down. "So bored!" he mumbled to no one imparticular. Things had been interesting to say the least when he had talked Tesou into teaching hi and two other Genins. He had yet to see the two after their first meeting and Tesou had seemed to disappear from the face of the Earth. As far as he could tell at least. Many random thoughts drifted through his mind. What would his first job as a Genin be? Was there anything to do in this village other than wander? A sigh escaped his lips as he zig zagged through the small crowds.

Tesou paced through the crowds, normally blank face holding a slightly cloudy look to it, as if somethin were bothering the man. He didn't know what to do after that... less than normal encounter. Gritting his teeth, he decided to just forget for the time-being. It would be best on both nerves and sanity. The only thing that still confused him to no end was the fact that he laughed. He could barely remember the last time he'd ever laughed....
Mentally shaking his head, he put his attention back to the situation at hand. He needed to train the three genin he'd been assigned to, and that job was top priority at the moment. His left eye glanced around the crowds, wondering if he'd actually see any of his students out and about. His right eye remained hidden behind his ever-present cloth mask, forever left blind, the only story told about it being the long scar that stretched down the right side of his face. When he didn't see any familiar faces of his genin, he glanced forward again, continuing on his way.
The question at hand... what should the next training be? The kage wasn't available, and wouldn't be for some time, so there were no missions to be handed out right now. Perhaps the hunter-nin could find a mission from a citizen on his own? It'd probably be the best bet, and it wasn't something they were told they definitely couldn't do. Hmm... that seemed like a good idea.... He glanced up, and saw on the other side of the street a face he recognized. Irrell. The one with the cats. Tesou didn't like cats.

"So bored!" he said a bit louder this time, throwing hs head back as he did so. If Haku was here the cat would find something to do by pissing someone off and getting him in trouble. At least this way he wan;t getting yelled at. that was a plus. His head lowered again and his eyes found someone he did recognize. It was Tesou. His sensei and the person he loved to annoy the most. Grin grew on his face as he thought about that to do. there would always the possibility of sneaking up on him but knowing Tesou he most likely already spotted him. That got rid of that idea in a flash. Well, good thing was he didn't have Tsubasa with him at the moment.
So it was time for the next best thing. Weaving in and out of the crowds he made his way towards the Jounin/Hunter-Nin. Grin toned down to a smile as he reached Tesou. "Hi!" he nearly yelled out, looking up at the taller man. "About time I saw someone I knew!" Hands went behind his head in a lazy manner as he turned to match steps with Tesou.

Tesou almost winced at the voice yelling at him. He'd been spotted. He glanced back as he continued with his slow pace, regarding Irrell for a moment with his typical expressionless face. "Hello, Irrell." He left it at that for the moment, choosing to continue on his way until they got a less crowded street, and weren't being constantly jostled or run into.
Tesou glanced back again. "By chance, have you seen your other teammates recently? A group training is definitely needed, but I seem unable to get ahold of them." With pursed lips, though the action appeared as only a slight movement of the cloth covering his mouth, he added, "If need be, we can attempt to find some training activity without the whole group."
After a moment of internal debating, he finally decided to just share his idea. "The kage is temporarily unavailable, and thus, no missions are being handed out at the moment. It may be possible to find a mission by asking around town and seeing who needs something done, if it comes down to it."

Ah yes! an answer and hs name ctually being spoken instead of 'kid'! It must be a miracle of some sort or Tesou had been torchoured in some way. Latter seemed more probable at the moment with how he acted. Confusion spread over his face. "Not that I can remember. they like disappeared ina cloud of smoke."
Training? Without the whole group? Man, this was one hell sure strange day for the Genin. Head went forward as he contiued walking. "Eh. Training would be fun but I think I'd like to have whitnesses aroud should something happen 'accidentally' when training." Eyes went to Tesou in an accusing manner.
"The Kage is unavailble? Huh. That's unusual. but then again, what is usual these days?" Smile crossed his face. "And what type of mission would it be? Cleaning? Pet sitting? Or some random form of torchoure only your mind can come up with?" He spoke in rememberance of the first time the whole team had met. No breakfast and chasina dog through a forest with wet paint.

If Tesou was prone to outwardly showing his espressions, he would have laughed at the comments of needing witnesses. But, he kept his amusement at the idea from showing on his face or in his actions, merely regarding Irrell with a slightly raised eyebrow. "Witnesses, eh? What, do you expect me to sic my dog on you?" Come to think of it, that may actually be amusing....
Tesou pretended to ponder Irrell's words. "Whatever mission it would be is whatever we'd be able to get. Whether it be cleaning, pet sitting, or running around through forests, it's all up to whoever we ask. And I do not torture people." The last sentence was said with a slight tinge of amusement to it, something easily missed by someone who didn't know the hunter-nin. He could guess exactly what Irrell was thinking about when saying that, and remembered that day fairly well.... The first training had been an... interesting experience, to say the least.

"He nearly ate me the first time I saw him!" He stopped walking as he spoke, just waiting to see if the large wolf/dog was there in the shadows waiting for a command. When he was satisfyed that Tsubasa wasn't in the shadows Irrell ran to catch up with his Jounin sensei.
"You keep telling yourself that." Irrell replied with a small smirk. His mind kept wandering off to ideas of that mission Tesou could prossibly get for him. It wasn't like there was much to do in the village anyway. And then all the good missions are given to the higher ranked ninjas. Oh well. He'd find some way to have fun. He kept a few paces behind Tesou just in case he did try one thing or another. It was his job to teach him.
With another small sigh he asked, "So, are you going to look for something to do or just walk around all day?"

Tesou just shrugged slightly. Tsubasa liked Irrell, in his own evil, weird way. The dog just liked hearing the strange sounds people made when he acted like he was going to jump them, or bite them. It was amusing. The dog was the espressive side that Tesou never seemed to get, Tesou's closest friend always said. His friend, Vine, would talk to the dog because of this, since he'd get more of a reaction from the dog than from Tesou himself.
When Irrell spoke up with a question, Tesou's eye, turned away from Irrell, glittered slightly with amusement. He chose to not reply to the genin, and instead continued on his way. He'd find something. In fact, he knew there were quite a few people out and about with small tasks perfect for a genin, annoyed since they couldn't get their requests into the kage. It simply would take the effort of going around and listening for such tasks, then approaching the person with an offer to complete the task.
When the got back to a main section of town again, Tesou glanced down at Irrell as he stopped walking. Motioning towards the crowd, he stated, "Go look for a job, kid. The faster you find one, the faster we can find a way to tie it into training."

When his sensei didn't answer his question Irrell got a tad bit irritated. He should have known that the Jounin wouldn't have answered him by now. He rarely did as it was. The main part of the village was up ahead and he knew this was where they were going to look for a job.
"My name is Irrell not kid. Get it right." he growled slighty as he spoke, casting a small glare up at Tesou in a playful manner for making him do the work of getting a job to do. Sort of immitating Tesou telling him to find a job the Genin put on a smile and wandered out, ears open for someone who might be talking about a task that needed completeing. Hopefully someone had something to do at the moment. If not there could always be training by himself but that was no fun at all.
He made a small circle before going back to Tesou. "What types of jobs should I be looking for? You should know since you are my Sensei. Besides, I habe no clue what I am doing." He wasn't embarrased for admitting he needed help. Everyone did they were just to damn full of themselves to ask and admit it. Hands went behind his head again as he looked up at Tesou waiting for an answer.

((I sorry, I sorry >.<;; I've been gone over the weekend))
Tesou nearly snorted at the kid. To Tesou, the kid would be called kid, unless the reason called for otherwise. Tesou didn't even like kids; they were too noisy and annoying. He didn't know how he'd been managing to put up with three.
He watched the kid run off, then started glancing from side to side, taking in all that was going on. Something had been bugging the Hunter-nin for the past two days, but he couldn't quite place it.... It was just a bad feeling. It almost felt like something bad was going to happen, but at the same time... it didn't. To one that knew him, he'd look nervous; to one who didn't, they wouldn't see the subtle change in his appearance and see him as being blank. He finally glanced over his shoulder, staring behind him. What was it...?
A voice behind him caused him to whip his head back around. He glanced down at Irrell, gritting his teeth for a minute, then replied, "Something that sounds D rank. We're looking for maybe something that requires heading off into the forest to find something, or to find something that's lost, or to take something somewhere in the town... things such as that." He glanced back over his shoulder, the feeling that had been growing was suddenly gone. He made a small 'hm' sound, still staring intently behind him.

((It's alright. I have writers black so it might be short. Also, what should the job be? I'm at a lost. Too many things on my mind.))
Head tilted to the side at his sensei's attitude. Was something wrong? He did do something wrong? Shrugging it off and mouthing the word 'oh' Irrell went back into the crowds of people to search for what Tesou had told him would be an appropriate job for him to do. Head turned from side to side as he loked from group to group. Not many people were talking about jobs to do or things that were lost. It was mostly about the days weather and thoughts about what was going on in other places. The usual talk. With a sigh he stopped and turned around in a small circle.

((perhaps someone's pet got lost in the forest?))
Tesou watched as his student wandered off yet again, and briefly pondered where the other two were. He hadn't seen them for a while.... He'd go the next day and pay them housecalls, to see what was going on.
A nagging at the back of his head, like before, drew his attention once more. It was akin to the cold feeling you got at the nape of your neck when someone was watching you, and you knew, but could never find; it was akin to the feeling that made a dog's hackle's go up, that made it bristle with nervousness. What was going on?
It seemed to slowly fade again, remaining only as a small, nagging feeling in the back of his mind; he easily pushed it away. Turning attention once more to the crowd, he scanned through the people, making an un-Tesou-like gesture by crossing his arms and frowning under the mask, frown even reaching his visible eye.

((Alright. Now just to rp it out. semi long post coming up))
The Genin wandered around for a few more mintures before stopping and sighing. Still no sign of anyone missing something or needing something to be done. What he wouldn't do for something to do at the moment. Tesou seemed to suck the fun out of everything. Well, except for annoying him.
"Someone help! I can't find Yase!" someone called from the crowds. Bingo. Something to do! With a smile he wandered over to where the distressed call came from. There was a frantic woman running around hystarically calling out for her pet.
"Can I help, ma'am?" he asked as she stopped.
Looking at him the lady nodded. "Yes. I lost my cat. She got out of the house. Yase is a pure white kittty with one black ear. Oh, please help find her. She gets so scared when she's alone."
Thinking that maybe the woman was overreacting Irrell still stood and lsitened as she described the cat. Not like any other cat he had ever seen and e lived with three of them. "Don;t worry ma'am. I'll find Yase." Reassuring her that she would find the cat and after getting all the information needed the Genin went back to his sensei. "Well, I got something to do. Lost cat." He smiled as he spoke grinning up at Tesou. Hopefully the Jounin was at least happy that he had found something to do other than wander around and annoy him.

Tesou scanned the crowd, gaze landing finally on Irrell and the woman he seemed to be talking to. Ahh, good. The kid had found something. The way the kid was returning affirmed Tesou's guess. After the few moments it took for the kid to talk, Tesou nodded. A pat on Irrell's shoulder was followed by, "Good work, kid. Now, on to the job.
"Since this is your job, I'll levae it to you to decide where to search first, and on how to search. I'll be keeping an eye on you to see how you work, and I'll keep a note on things you could do to improve. If anything happens, I'll be nearby to help." He didn't specify what those 'things' could be, nor did his tone imply that those 'things' would likely occur.
With a nod of his head, he stated, "Off to it now."

Surprised at first by his sensei;s actions it took a while for him to realize that Tesou was speaking. Again with the kid! How he hated that name but he would have to deal with it for a while longer. But at least he got some sort of compliment out of Tesou no matter how short it was. It was something.
Looking suspiciously at Tesou like the older ninja had something up his sleeve Irrell merely nodded. "Alright then. I say try the lake first. It's a lot quieter there than here and perfect for a scared animal to go." Smiling and without waiting to see if the other ninja was going to follow Irrell started towards the lake. Hopefully the cat was there and not lsot in some big crowd or being chased by a dog. A picture of Tsubasa eating the poor cat came to mind. "your dog wouldn't eat a cat if it didn't prevoke him, right?" he called back over his shoulder, hoping and praying the answer was no.
