News spread rapidly down the genin grapevine that the Raikage had returned and begun assigning squads again.Hiromasa was both pleased and anxious at the news. One the one hand, it was good to know that they weren't alone. One the other, it was the end of what he'd taken to jokingly calling Team Hiro, consisting of just about everyone he'd met in his brief time as a ninja. As various peers swarmed the board where the squad listings were, cheers and groans echoed through the streets in equal amounts. Hiromasa smiled. The Reign of the Genin had ended.
Patiently waiting until the sea of ninja had ebbed, he walked up, his curiosity finally getting the better of him. Skye was listed under "Raijin," a name he wasn't familiar with, Hikaru was going to someone named Luca. Near the bottom of the page he finally found Sanosuke, under the Raikage himself! Not too surprising given that they were in the same clan, he supposed. Looking slightly down, Hiro's eyes bulged. Right beneath his partner's was his own name! Barking out laughter, he shook his head. He hadn't even been sure if he'd get a squad, so recent was his graduation, but here he was assigned to the best of the best. He briefly pondered whether this was a good sign or not, before deciding it was unimportant. The fact was, the Raikage himself was going to be his teacher.
The paper had been partially torn by overzealous ninja and thus he could not make out what exactly they were supposed to do after being assigned. With no one else around, Hiro decided to simply go introduce himself. After leaning against a wall for over an hour as he waited, his legs could use the stretch anyway. After some internal debate, he began heading to the administration building. As he neared his destination he felt more than a twinge of nervousness. The only time he'd seen so many guards at once was a tour through Anthos Keep in his academy days. Seeming to sense his apprehension, more than one of them smiled ever-so-slightly as he passed, making no move to impede him. Arriving at the door marked with his sensei's name, he knocked carefully, hoping to be not loud enough to sound demanding, but not so quiet as to be unheard.
