A tiny pinch of displeasure engulfed her as she found out that the two Genins knew each other already. She seemed misplaced, almost like standing in the way of their friendship.
Quickly, Misoka decided to shake off this feeling, telling herself that she was being ridiculous. Only because she didn't know them yet did not mean she wasn't going to. They were a squad now and they had to work together, to become a team and as for that embrace teamwork. This, in turn, required getting to know each other, their strengths and weaknesses, simply turning from strangers, in her case, to friends.
It didn't matter whether she would have to take one more step towards them in order to achieve that.
Preoccupied with her thoughts, she almost overheard the little girl introducing herself. With a surprised face, she turned to her - Jezzi, as she said, - and noticed the small smile on her lips. Although it was a bit cracked, Misoka felt relieved to see that Jezzi didn't dislike her at first sight. Or at least, not completely.
The green-haired spoke in a soft, yet firm tone. Still, the fact that she had even bothered introducing herself put a smile on Misoka's face.
"Thank you for letting me know, Jezzi-chan," the Karisuma replied. Her smile softened and she went on as if she was an adult talking to a little child. She even bent down a bit, thinking Jezzi might be uncomfortable with her height.
"I'm Misoka. I also use Earth Style so it seems we have something in common! Isn't that great?"A small laugh escaped her lips. She obviously tried very hard to cheer up the girl or child as she still liked to think about Jezzi. She hoped that her good intentions would be noticeable to her teammate.
Just then, Jezzi's mouth formed a soft
"Oh" before taking a black tablet out of her pouch and swallowing it.
Misoka couldn't believe her eyes. She backed away ever so slightly, the same thought running through her mind over and over. Drugs. Not only was the little girl a bit grumpy today, she also seemed to have a drug problem. Oh. My. God. But she was so young and already an addict! And.. and she wasn't even embarrassed about displaying this issue in public. Something must have gone badly wrong in Jezzi's life.
Misoka bit her lower lip, musing whether or not she should speak her mind about how exactly she felt about drugs.
The decision was out of her hands when her male teammate, Kaizen, broke the silence.
"The only q-question I have, Kazekage-sama, is w-what do you plan on having u-us do today?"A slight grin spread over Misoka's lips once again. First, Kaizen had some kind of stutter problem. Secondly, he hadn't even bothered to ask what her name was and instead immediately focused on the training they were here for.
'Yes, Hi to you, too,' she thought, but was more amused than offended this time. The boy seemed just like a n-... um, smart teen wanting to know everything about the technical ninja stuff. Or shinobis in general. She was sure he was a little shy as well, considering his stutter.
Then Gin announced their first training and created a transparent shield around her.
"All you three have to do is break it. Sounds like a good warm up, no?"Misoka blinked in astonishment, seeing that Gin just plopped down on the ground and started reading a book. The young blonde stepped forward. She would be the first trying to break this shield. In her mind, she already went through all the things she could do.
How about she took the chance to train her new jutsu, the Fire Dance? The next moment, she almost dismissed this thought because she knew she was nowhere near to accomplishing this technique yet. But then again, how was she going to learn it without training?
So she took a deep breath, sending chakra to her feet.
'I'll just try to ignite at least some tiny flames'.After that, she rushed forward and spinned in one of her favourite dances while she glimpsed a few sparks coming from her legs. Not enough for a proper attack, obviously. She stopped her dance, which hadn't lasted long anyway, and instead used up the chakra in her legs to perform another Katon technique.
~Fire Style: Small fire~ Since she was close enough to the shield now, the small fire she spewed out hit the target perfectly. However, it did ... nothing. The shield didn't even show any signs of a crack.
Misoka stood there, dumbfounded, but slowly, her expression was replaced with amazement. She didn't expect any less from the Kazekage. Problem was: How would they actually break through that shield of hers? Ninjutsu didn't seem to do much, if any, damage.
She turned around to face her teammates and shrugged.
"I guess it's your turn to take a try." A slight smile appeared on her face.
She felt a bit embarrassed for failing like that, but then again, this was the Kazekage's jutsu they were fighting.
