OOC: this thread, timeline wise, is after Takao became Hokage but before he travelled to the summit.
The waters of the Naka river were unusually calm. Typically, the flow was rather intense, the waves crashing over each other violently, creating a beautiful white foam, and an even more beautiful thundering noise. Tatsumaru laid a few feet away from the shore, staring into the clouds. It was a fairly warm day, with an overcast sky obscuring the sun. A few feet from Tatsumaru, a few weapons were laid out in a tidy row; a jet black Sansetsukon, a red oak Bo staff and a matching pair of Nunchaku. Tatsumaru had been waiting for his mentor for over an hour now, but he didn't mind. Takao had recently become Hokage, and as such his free time was reasonably limited. He supposed he should be honoured that Takao was making time for him at all, considering his new position was so demanding. The previous kage had been assassinated, and the entire political world was a powder keg, waiting to explode into another world war at the slightest provocation. Hell, it was a miracle he was showing up to spar with a Special Jounin at all. If anything, the time to himself for retrospection was pleasant. It gave him time to reflect upon the world around him, and perhaps, if he was lucky, find some degree of peace.
