It wasn't to early in the day, and not exactly noon yet. The sun was still in the east, it's rays still stale, not yet warming the snow laden earth. Though it wasn't much, snow had fallen over the thin layer that lasted a few days, making it look fresh and new. But, it was not untouched. There was a trail of clumsy foot prints leading to a place well known as the Maruishi River, going in a destict straight line. The one making the trail was female, a genin, and probably no older than fourteen.
Her head was covered in a gray, wool hat, her brown hair let down and flecked with a few snow flakes. She was bundled in a coat, black , wearing a sort of plaid 'sleeping' flanel pants - Dark blue, white, and green - that fell over in an odd pattern onto silverish snow boots. It was an odd combination, but she still managed to blend in with the few people that wandered aimlessly around, and some children cheering and playing. She was walking, it seemed as if she was very determind to reach her destination, what ever it was.
"Ah!"
She sounded pleased with herself as a puff of hot air billowed from her open mouth, and her thin, red lips broke into a smile. Her pace quickening to a brisk - slightly unsteady due to her heavy boots - jog. Reaching her destination, she slowed to a stop, panting. Her house was a long way from here! Looking towards the now white pile of rocks, she smiled triumphantly. She'd made it here, yay~
The genin took some more steps, extending her red gloved hands out to steady herself, grasping onto the rock. She took one unsure step onto the rocks, then another. Making her way down, she grew more sure of herself. Haha! This was going okay! Getting just a rock or two away from the water, that looked frozen, but she wasn't sure, she sat and slid to the next one down. Looking more hesitant this time, she strenched out her leg and pressed a foot to the ice, and seeing cracks appear rapidly, and the ice move, quickly withdrew it.
"Man!" [/size]

Kuro came by the river and sw the genin. He was surpirsed that he wasn't the only one out there. He too a couple of more steps before saying anything.
" Hello. Who are you?" He wanted to be friends already.

[ Remember- Your posts must be at least three lines! Hehe. x3 ]
She blinked for a minute, twisting her body around to see the Chuunin. For a moment, a spilt second, her mind processed seeing the other there. Her mouth hug slightly open, chest rising and falling as she took in the cold, but life giving air. Her lungs stug slightly, and then she spoke. Much hot air came from her mouth, coming in puffs.
"Oh, hello there! I didn't see you. I'm Karma, by the way! What about you?"
Her voice was jovial, and she was smiling quite broadly now. Some hair had fallen into her green-amber eyes, and she raised her right hand to brush it away boyishly. It was annoying when it was down like this- always getting into her face, blowing around! She refused to get it cut, so naturally, she would have to keep it up. But, unfortunately for her, she had failed in looking her her hair tie this morning when she woke up. Her mother didn't give her one; she insisted on having her daughter's hair cut. But as normal routine, Karma had- venomously, almost- refused. And her she was now! [/size]

He was glad that the genin had responded to his call. He was cold. The wind was getting to him. He usually resided in warm, dry areas. His training though, required him to train in all weather conditions.
" My names is Kurobashi Akigawa, but people just call me Kuro for short. I am a Chuunin."

"Cool!"
She chirped, rubbing her hands together for some more warmth. Her head was tipped to the side, and she was still smiling despite the cold. True, she was shivering like mad, but hey. She was bundeled up, and it could be colder. She could've sworn that it had warmed up since yesterday, but wasn't ready to bet any money on it. Maybe that last bit was because she didn't have any money to bet, and that was her excuse. It wasn't that she was unsure of herself, really!
"So what 'cha doing out here in the cold? I wanted to see how frozen the river was." She nodded, her teeth chattering a little bit as she spoke. If the lake was frozen enough, to a certain point , she might've been able to go skating. But it wasn't... [/size]

" I usually get up this early in the morning and train. Would you like to train with me?"
He would love for a genin to train with him. He would be able to hone his skills even more with help. The bitter cold was killing him though. How could he do his normal routines with the weather. He started to walk to the river to test the ice. " How thick do you think this is?"

She listened intently, then turned to look at the ice agian with a visible shudder. Then she turned back to him, wrinkling her nose a little bit. Twisting around on her position on the rock, spinning around and re siusting herself, the Genin Girl got into a much more comfortable postion. Her green-ish eyes blinked as she looked at him more directly. Then listening to his question, she was surprised. Someone invited her to train with them! Sweet!
"Cool! I think that'd be fun. Rinoku-Sensei gave us a day off today, but working on my skills would be good for me!"
Karma nodded. Wait till Rinoku-Sensei heard about this! I bet he'd be really proud! A ninja of a higher rank asking me to train with them! Her thoughts were rapid and exited, and she didn't stop smiling. Not once! [/size][/color]

He moved his arms in away noone knew. He the created clones of him. " Your move." He wanted to take it easy on the Genin. He did't want to hurt her and amke her Sesi made. This was to be fun. He wanted to train with her to feel what it would be like to become a Jounin. This was his goal. This was his dream. This was his life.

{ Go ahead! And Kuro, I liked those last to sentences. :3 }
She blinked, suddenly surprised by the fact that they had already begun! She scrambled to her feet, and tensed. She was no good at fighting, and prefered to just move around. It kept her warm when it was cold like this, and not exactly the best idea to go back home (Considering that she had a yelling match with her mother that morning). She asumed a more stable position on the rock, taking deep breaths. That was her move, and she was satisifed with it.
{ Bleh post. >> } [/size]

He took out his knives and rushed in for the attack. He wanted to surprise her. This was a chance to see what a Genin would do to him. Was he good? This was it, time show what he had. " Watch this." he ran in circles around her. This was his tactic to confuse her. He then started to think Attack dont kill. No wounds. No marks. (Thanks for the comment)

A boy with silverish blue hair and mystifying gray eyes watched closely and intently. He stood close; Standing on the limb of a strong snow covered oak tree. He watched the battle with interest, and remained silent and unmoving. He could not feel the cool air around him, and the snow just felt like hard ice shattered into tiny pieces, not bothering him.
His right hand was holding onto the trunk of the tree to help with balance, but he could do without it. He kept quiet and remained still.

She tensed, and seeing him run towards her, veered to the side. Karma yelped, slipping backwards when he began to run in circles. Ala scarcasm: This was perfect! Just perfect. With a swear word, she realized how stupid it was to agree to this: She didn't have any weapons with her! Stupid, stupid! Muttering things to herself, she watched as he ran in circles, already getting a pounding headache. Augh, she was no morning person.
Oh well, she'd deal. She'd agreed to it... And here she was. Taking deep breaths, She flexed her fingers and silently promised herself that she wouldn't chicken out. Shifting her eyes back and forth, she waiting for an opening. Any thing.
For a moment, her search was in vain. Then it wasn't! There! Hah. She bolting, swearing that she had seem a more solid form. Hoping to tackle it to the ground, she smirked. Whoo! [/size]

Kurobashi had fell to the ground. How did she see me! No matter I will win. He got up and said to her, " How did you see me?" This anwser would help him solve all his problems. He started to breath normal now. His breath were white puffs of smoke. If you didn't know that it was cold outside tthen you would think that he was smoking. The cold was getting to him. He now started to wish he knew more.

Nice move... Luck.
The boy watched still with cold eyes. He felt fine in the snow, seeing as he couldn't feeling the biting sting of the cold. Slowly he blinked, his hair waving in the soft winds that blew along with the slow falling snow. He has to try harder... Before he gets himself beat.
