A man could be seated on the side of the Naka River as it flowed, he admired the beauty of nature and could be sitting their for hours and not care as he just loved staring at nature. This man was Maito Uchiha, a Special Jounin of the Hidden Leaf Village. After several more moments he stands up and looks around and suddenly disappeared into a nearby wooded area. He stood in a tree and again stood still admiring nature until he saw a couple of local kids playing around and he hears them talking about a group of ninja's in the forest and one of them begins describing Seme Sarutobi, Maito recognizes this and realizes it's a chance to visit his old friends. Semmei and Mie, Maito turns and immediately disappears. He is seen hopping through the town and towards the house of his friends. Maito arrives at the house of Semmei Sarutobi and Mie. He knocked on the door and the door is answered by Semmei. "Hey Old Sarutobi, how ya been?" Maito grinned. Semmei smiled "Well it's good to see you again Maito. What.....it's been 2 months?" Maito chuckled "Yeah, I've been busy with a lot missions lately." "I bet I could still take you on even with being out of practice for a few years." Semmei sarcastically remarked. Maito's gaze became more serious but kept a grin and chuckled "Is that a challenge?" Semmei's gazed had the same look "Of course." Maito motioned for Semmei to step out and he obliged. Several hours passed and we saw both Maito and Semmei breathing heavily. "Damn, you've improved Maito. You have the brawn to go with the brain of yours." Maito stood up and popped his neck and then replied "Yeah, pretty sure I'm better than you now old man." Maito noticed Seme returning home in the distance and nodded his head towards Semmei and disappeared in a flash. After several minutes Maito could be found back by the river, worn out from the spar, laying along the river.
