"Forty, forty one, forty two," Raku counted out as he did his set of fifty push ups for his daily regiment. He had already done all his other training this was the last of it before he could leave the battle plateau and go to grab himself something to eat. "Forty three, forty four, forty five" Raku continued out loud since no one else was around him. The Battle Plateau had been empty for the last hour, which is around the time he had stopped practicing his kenjutsu and began his physical training with sit ups, pull ups on the hanging bar that was there on the plateau, etc. Considering the fact that Kenji was holding a tournament in a couple of weeks he had to ensure that he was ready for anything that could be thrown at him. "Forty six, forty seven, forty eight," just a few more and I will go get something to eat he thought to himself as his stomach let out a growl, he had not eaten anything since this morning when he had breakfast and it was now late into the afternoon. He knew he was pushing himself a little hard, but considering what was coming he did not have much choice in the matter he had to improve if he was going to win the tournament. "Forty nine, Fifty!" shouting fifty a little higher than the rest of the numbers that he had counted. After which he jumped up to his feet and walked over to the bench where he had laid his coat down before he had started his training. Throwing on his white coat he walked to the nearby water fountain and grabbed himself something to drink, before leaving the Battle Plateau and heading out to get something to eat. He had passed by a couple of restaurant along his walk but he did not stop, "quiet down" he said under his breath to his stomach as it began to growl again the smell of the food was getting to him. He knew where he was going, in his opinion as well as the owner it was the beat food in all of Kumo 'Ouri's Place' it was a restaurant close to the entrance to the village and so it was usually very busy as a lot of tourist often went there to eat. Despite it usually being extremely busy the owner Ouri had become one of Raku's few friends within the village and always makes a place for him to sit and enjoy a meal after a hard day of training.
As he drew closer to the restaurant he could see that it was packed 'a very busy night for Ouri,' Rakurai thought to himself as he walked through the door of the restaurant. "Welcome to Ouri's place" came a quick greeting from the hostess as she approached him with a smile, "I'm sorry but we are packed its going to be a thirty minute wait at the earliest." the hostess continued. "That's fine, just tell Ouri that Raku is here to see him" he told the hostess returning her smile. "Oh Raku, I'm sorry I did not know it was you, Ouri has a seat reserved for you, please follow me." the hostess was quick to apologize before turning around and walking towards the back of the restaurant and showing him to a seat in a corner booth that had a sign saying reserved. The woman took the sign off the table and motioned for him to sit, "someone will be with you shortly to get your order, is there anything you would like to drink?" the hostess asked. "Just some water, please." Raku said as he grabbed the menu and tried to decide what he was going to have to eat.
