Hearing the six-year-old easily accept Minowa's excuse to depart the current situation was a relief he wasn't aware he was hoping for. He wasn't good at placating someone else's emotions, and his brief time spent at the Academy showed that younger individuals are more likely to start spouting off - be it in joy or otherwise. He gives the youngest girl a bow of his head and a word of acceptance for her request to climb trees. It was something he found natural to do, spending so much time learning from Itoko. Not getting anything further from Shikatsu or Hanae, Minowa began walking away, Itoko's loping stride keeping the same pace as him.
"Hey, Minnow," Hanae spoke up, her skipping steps audible on the stone road. Sky-blue eyes darkened slightly, preparing for another favor to be requested of him. Instead, the puppet user mentioned wanting to 'hit' a ramen place. His brows knitted down, and he looked down at Itoko, his closest source of guidance, but the bearcat had nothing for him. He half turns, appearing apprehensive with his confused frown and tight shoulders. He peers at Hanae for a long second, then his thin lips part as he hesitantly asks;
"I do not understand - why do you wish to assault a business?" The Kiri-nin's gaze flickers between the three other nin, even tries to read Botamochi. It couldn't be stealing - no matter the culture differences between their villages, a Jounin wouldn't allow such blatant thievery, right? Shikatsu doesn't appear upset, even summoning a clone so Chihiro, Botamochi, and himself could join in on this 'hit' straight away. Itoko's ears flickered back and forth, as though seeking something, picking up on the boy's confusion.

Chihiro; Chakra 160/160 Stamina 210/210 Raiton l Katon
Chi couldn't help but the young girl still holds the grudge over what happened earlier even if the nice boy seemed to forgive the rude girl. Chi's mother always tried to teach Chi to be kind. Have manners. Forgive. Her father? He was a wild one and Chi was picking up on his personality, fast. This was not a good thing, her father had gotten in trouble a few times due to his rowdiness. No matter. Both Chi and Botamochi tilted their head in pure confusion when the rude girl went off about some kind of food? Fish? YUCK. They both scrunched their noses and looked at each other with yuck expression.
As the little Inuzuka had given her goodbyes, the girl didn't seem she was going to leave anywhere which was a huge bummer. Her bright greens glanced and she found the headband. Ah! She wasn't from here! She should go back from where she came from! Before she could be mean to the girl herself, it seemed that Hanae wanted all of them to eat together. Now, Chihiro wouldn't mind that but the issue was that Hanae was going to be there. And Chihiro doesn't have any ryo with her. Her parents haven't entrusted her with that yet. Considering she had lost ryo like there was no tomorrow.
"It's rude to make food a game," Chihiro spoke up with a hint of snarl. If anything, it seems that this young female, even though she was the youngest of the lot was starting to display alpha tendencies and personalities. Then the orange-haired male she was with had managed to distract her away from the upcoming danger of her wild side and mentioned that they could go out to eat. Hanae, lucky for her, went towards the blonde boy as he tried to leave as Chi blinked in confusion before looking down at Botamochi who just simply shrugged one of his shoulders. He was trying to leave? This girl needed to be taught a lesson or two.
Minowa's response help distracted the duo from randomly attacking Hanae. "H-huh? S-steal a business? Oh! No no nononoonononono." Chihiro said really fast as she was appalled at the idea. Even at six years old, she knows what's right and what's wrong. Botamochi walked up to Minowa, tail wagging to show that he wasn't there to hurt or anything as he nudged up against Minowa's leg and then gave Hanae one nasty stink eye. Whether she would notice it or not, "Rude-y here meant to go eat. It's a slang that stupid teenagers use nowadays. It took me a while to understood what they meant too! I got in a couple of fights at school because of it..." Chihiro murmured as she rubbed her cheek, remembering one of the punches when she attacked a 16-year-old for saying she'll 'hit' up the sushi store. Chihiro was just wanting to defend her hometown!

Elation! Even if Shikatsu was a Jounin, he could totally read the atmosphere! What a wingman! Hanae made a mental note to tip him off to any crazy parties she might uncover in the future. Then there was Minnow. Such a fish out of water. It was so cute. Maybe if she weren't so committed, or if Ags didn't mind--no, no, she quashed that thought right there. Minnow was an acquaintance. Acquaintances didn't just up and start dating. Except when they did.
"Gah, you're totally right!" she groaned at Chihiro's rebuttal. "Meals are just supposed to be nice. Maybe a bit rowdy, but no playing with your food." She sighed and slapped her cheeks. "My apologies to the gods of food. May our tables be ever full. But yeah, Minnow, we're gonna-- come to think of it, Chii, I got in some fights over that same thing. Well, not at school, but. Did you win?"
She fixated her gaze on Chihiro, her grin showing she either didn't realize the girl was giving her the stink eye or didn't care.

Totally out of his character, Shikatsu let a small chuckle escape him as he listened to the 3 children talk amongst themselves, trying to explain the phrasing to Minowa. It was interesting to watch them as he remembered how he once had days like this with his friends when he were younger. He turned all of his attention to Minowa now. "Does that explanation make sense?" He asked walking up to him as calmly as he could so as not to upset the cat. " And would you like to join us, it's up to you." He tried to make him as comfortable as he could since he seemed to be out of his comfort zone around them.
══════════════════════════════════════════╩
"Your life is to short, so don't go throwing it away so easily."
Minnowa's look of suspicion and confusion persisted even after the explenation was given. It didn't help that Chihiro and Botamochi kept their aggressive aura, meaning Itoko - and extension Minowa - on edge as a consequence. Even as a story about Chihiro's past - recent past most definately due to her age - the Kiri-nin couldn't relax. The idea of the young girl getting in fights did make him wonder if that was normal, even more so as Hanae seemed to agree, leaving Minnowa speculating with a deeper frown on his fair features. Meals are meant to be rowdy and its normal for young children to get into physical fights? He didn't feel any agression from the animal nuzzling his side, and Itoko, while tense, gave no warning signs so a pale hand didn't even hesitate to gently rub his fingertips into the thick fur, allowing a more effective message of the puppy's head rather than just petting a thick layer of fur. He blinked, big blue eyes turning up to gaze at the Nara clan member.
"It was clearly explained." He spoke, sounding deliberately cold. "Chihiro said it is slang, that it means 'to go eat.'" He repeated back up at the Jounin. Minnowa had thin patience for being spoken to as though he couldn't comprehend basic language or where people tried to be overly soft with him as though he was fragile. He looked away, gazing up the road he had come from. The genin had been encouraged previously to build relationships with others, and his Pa would only grow cncerned if he didn't show up to dinner without prior notice. Add into that the Anbu shadow would watch over him, and what real reason did he have to refuse? He sensed no aggression, no outward hostility or insult, nor was he required anywhere. He looked back up at Shikatsu, hand still gently rubbing Botamochi's head, and nodded.
"I will accept." He clarifies. It was a good opprtunity to learn more about Konoha, maybe even about the Senju clan.

Chihiro; Chakra 160/160 Stamina 210/210 Raiton l Katon
Chihiro couldn't help but rose her left eyebrow when the girl was giving her full attention. What was going on!? She was slightly confused. The bewilderment look on her face faded just as fast when Hanae asked if she won. "Heck yea! Though mumma said she would file down my sharpie teethies if I bite someone again..." Chihiro grumbled as she seemed rather disappointed with this fact. Though she didn't win, and neither did the other girl. The teacher had to pry and open Chihiro's jaw more to have her finally let the poor child go. They had to do the same thing to Botamochi who was smaller and has his maw around the bully's ankle. Botamochi felt a hand touch him as it startled him for a moment before he whined and then barked happily as he started to sniff and lick Itoko's hand as he nuzzled his head towards Itoko's hand, wanting some more pets. But then, both Botamochi and Chihiro took one sniff in the air, "Oh no-" "MYYYYY SPPPPEEECKKKKLEEDDD FLLLOOOOWWWEEERR!" came a holler.
Those that dare to turn to where the noise was coming from, they would see a massive brute of a man, wearing only shinobi pants and the Konohagakure headband was around his wrist. His biceps could be easily bigger than the children's head, maybe even Shiki's. The thighs look like they could crush a watermelon. Easily. His pet? Was no better. He was huge, thinking chuck of muscles. Swooped right in, the hulk picked his daughter up and threw her up in the air as she became a tiny dot in the sky, and then placed his hand over his eyes as he pretended to look for her. Meanwhile, his pet, Soy, decided to sit on Botamochi. "Oh hello kiddos! I'm Chihiro's dad! You can call me..." He paused as if to add some effect, "Chihiro's dad!" He slapped his own thigh as he was howling with laughter. Then right on cue, he caught his daughter as she squirmed, "I said to stop doing that papa!!" She growled as he chuckled while setting his daughter down. Compared the two of them, Chihiro seemed tinier if that was possible. "SO! Made some friends eh? Wait till I tell- Oh is this your teacher?" He questioned as he held out his hand for the Nara to shake. The moment Shiki placed his hand into his, he grasps Shiki and pulled him towards his brute chest. Sadly being that close, the orange-haired Nara would get a whiff of this man's musk, sweat, mud, and wood chips? "Listen here," He said, low enough for only Shiki to hear, and maybe Minowa, depending on his hearing, "See my speckled flower?" He pointed out to her. Calling his daughter Speckled flower was his way of trying to get Chihiro to feel beautiful despite her condition.
Chihrio was busy trying to push the massive brute of a dog off of Botamochi. Botamochi was fine. His face just looks squished. No crying or whimpering was heard from him. "Git off, Soy!" Chihiro shouted towards the brute who only responded by licking her face which caused her to giggle and then frown. "Help me out here guys! Hanae! Get on this side and push! Minowa, pull! I'll get on his back! Surely Soy couldn't take all of us!" With that, she shoved with all her might that only ended up being a 'thump' against the muscle dog as she wrapped her arms around his neck and her hands couldn't touch but her teeth found the target, his ears. She started to gnaw away but Soy simply yawned as if he was used to this. "If she gets hurt, harmed, comes home crying.." He growls, threateningly. Then he laughs, releasing Shiki from the headlock and shook his hand but the threat was still there. With a turn of his head, he glanced towards his daughter and picks her up with one hand off of Soy's back and placed her down. It was then, his green hues had caught a little creature. "OH HEY LITTLE FELLA!!" He shouted before plopping down and taking his daughter down with him. With that, he rolled onto his back and drummed his chest as if it was a bongo drum, "Come here ya rascal! Give this old man a good play!" Meanwhile, Chihiro was stuck underneath one of his massive thighs and Botamochi was almost out of Soy's entrapment as his butt was wiggling his way out.

"Oh, that's horrible! You better keep those chompers in good shape! You win fights with 'em now and they'll become an awesome secret weapon later." Hanae raised her hand to give Chihiro a high five, then pulled it back instinctively when she heard the roar of a wild father. Then Chihiro went up into the stratosphere, the dad started lecturing, and then casually caught the wee lass like she weighed nothing. And throughout all of this Hanae was just stunned. This guy was just so cool! She... she had to get pointers. What was his workout routine like? What was it like to be such an absolute unit?! Could he crush someone's head using one arm?! How did he hurl his daughter like that, and could Hanae learn to do it so she could properly greet Minnow next time?!
"Ch-Chii!" she addressed the girl breathlessly, stars in her eyes. "How is your dad this cool?! Does he push this dog around all day, is that it?!"
She was at a loss for what to do until the mountain of a man laid down with his daughter and started to play with a dog. Hanae took that as an opportunity to approach; she squatted, then shuffled over, hands on her knees.
"'Scuse me, sir," she addressed him, "but can I ask how you got so jacked?"

As Shikatsu listened to Chi and Hanae talk he felt someone approach. He went and turned to look as a brute of a man came charging in with a holler. He was a bit confused for a second when he lifted and catapulted Chi extremely high into the air. Or would that be Chi-apulted? He was going to speak up but before he could the man quickly introduced himself as Chi's father..... And that is when everything seemed to magically make sense. Soon Chihiro came falling back from the stratosphere and was caught by her dad and he set her down. He extended his arm to shake the over sized hands of this man and introduce himself. "Nice to meet you sir, my name is ShikA-!" Was all he could get out before he was suddenly pulled into a weirdly deep embrace before being put into a headlock. Being the close to the giant of a man was very odd indeed, and unfortunately the aroma that came with it wasn't to pleasing either. All of his training to withstand most poisons and toxic fumes were not helping with 'burly man smell'. He listened as he started to quietly speak with him about his daughter now. He could feel that he was just looking out for Chihiro, but this was a bit excessive. He finally released him from the hold and properly shook his hand, albeit still firm with with his waning from before. Shikatsu pulled his hand free afterwards and cleared his throat. "Ahem. Yes, that is very well understood, sir, and i'll make sure to do my best to see that Chihiro is....~" And just like that he was of doting on his daughter again. This was nice to see, if not a bit irritating for Shikatsu because he was trying to reassure him that everything would be fine. He let out a small sigh and decided to give up on that matter since both father and daughter were now preoccupied with eachother to listen. Watching them, he clearly saw where Chi got a lot of her personality from. He would stand there and wait till they decided to rejoin the conversation or one of the others needed him. He did think on the mans original question tho as to what the relationship was between himself and Chihiro. He wasn't her teacher, or at least not as far as he knew, and he had only just met her before starting this mission. Pondering more on it, he was curious if the Hokage had an ulterior motive for teaming him up with Chihiro to begin with, This would come up the next time he saw the Hokage. With all of the constant conversations and intrusions that happened the clone he made earlier decided to just go ahead and continue on with the mission that was given to them originally and left for the hot springs.

"Your life is to short, so don't go throwing it away so easily."
Too loud. Both Minnowa and Itoko's body language shifted once more into a defensive posture, with the young boy's face pinching and Itoko's ears flattening. With an arched back, Itoko pressed its body tight against his human partner's side, front paws reaching up as the boy knelt down, shoulders tense, and an arm curled in front of his chest, allowing a perch for the Bearcat to perch its upper-half on, giving the both of them some comfort in this almost overwhelmingly loud situation brimming with a type of excitement neither of the Kiri residents were used to being so close to. Hanae, while quieter verbally, was practically vibrating for a reason the Senju clan member could not truly fathom - which only made him feel all the more alien in this situation. Shikatsu's calm acceptance held no reassurance for Minnowa either, being a foreign man with no reason for the boy to place any real level of trust into. Botamochi, someone that held the tiniest bit of mental support, being an animal and making its intentions obviously known, was now more like his name sake, squashed under a massive hulk of a canine rather than a wooden mallet, but Minnowa felt the end result would be the same, seeing it's incredible bulk. And, just like meeting Botamochi for the first time, meeting a new creature only brought tension into Itoko's frame.
Chihiro and... Chihiro's Dad, were both constantly loud. Even when the father figure was whispering, it could be heard over where the Genin and his Binturong were crouched on the footpath together, the padding in the bottom hem of Minnowa's shorts protecting the pale skin of his knees from the filthy stonework. Chihiro, meanwhile, was trying to coax the blond-haired boy into putting his hands on the hulk-of-muscle canine to try to free the puppy trapped beneath him. Which was not going to happen. Even with that calm, relaxed energy he was giving off, Minnowa and Itoko had not been properly introduced to Soy and to suddenly get in the dog's personal space without properly learning each other was not something either boy and Binturong were going to do. Narrowed blue eyes and matching brown orbs gazed warily at the situation, Minnowa obviously wanting to be not here and Itoko seeking just as much to protect the eleven-year old as he also wants to leave the situation as well. He could leave. Maybe he should. It's obvious he doesn't belong in this crowd of charismatic(?), energetic personalities. But he couldn't stay sheltered from this either - even he recognised that fact. He didn't spend much time in the Academy, and most people either avoided him, or he avoided them because he felt like they were trying to use him for his status as son of two Mizukages. But whether its his teammates or the requirement of a mission, Minnowa would eventually need to be unbothered by... this/.
He stayed. And watched. Trying to figure out how this is 'normal,' how he might even be able to respond appropriately, or just work on desensitising himself enough to not be so... apprehensive.

Chihiro; Chakra 160/160 Stamina 210/210 Raiton l Katon
While struggling to get the massive leg off of her chest, she thought Hanae was coming to help her! About time! Someone was going to help! "Wha!?" Chi was rather startled at hearing someone saying that her dog was just so cool. And if he pushed around the dog. Chi paused for a moment, her hands underneath her father's calves as she blinked a few times in confusion before Hanae went to talk to her father as he simply sat there with his legs still on the daughter. "HEY! Git back over here and help me!" Chi shouted at the girl. But it didn't work. With a growl, huff and puff, and whining sounds, Chi was doing all she can to get out. Botamochi on the other hand, with a small 'pop' he dug himself from underneath Soy as he whined and shook. Hearing his owner in distress, he quickly ran his way towards the father's leg but forgot how to stop. The puppy toppled over the father's legs as if doing cartwheels before plopping onto the ground. No matter! Botamochi got up as if nothing happened and tried to opened it's jaw as large as he could to bite the thighs to let Chi go but the muscles were too thick and the skin by no means was baggy enough for the puppy to get a grip of to bite.
Hearing the girl talk, the man glanced at the girl and roared with laughter. "Big as me? Well, any friend of Chi is a friend of mine! Let's see here." He patted around and ignored his daughter's struggle under his legs and the puppy slobbery trail on the leg. "Could've sworn... where did I..." He mumbled as he started to pull out different things from many pockets of his pants. Bubblegum, a shuriken, a rock. An old picture of Chi as she was a baby. Picture of a beautiful woman with her slender dog, one could assume that would be his mate, Chihiro's mother. A plastic bag, a dirty old rag, few more rocks, few more diets. An old shriveled up leaf. "AHA!" He had found it, pulled out a small notebook, he handed it to Hane. "There ya go! I eat about 20lbs of raw meat, no fruits or vegetables," right on cue, Botamochi, Soy, and Chi gagged a bit hearing this. The father continued on as if he didn't hear them, "I also bench press our house," He brought up. "Then pick up our house and use it to help my squats..."
It was hard to tell if he was joking. Or not. But the sad look on his face was very much real when the bearcat didn't go running to his chest when he banged on it like a bongo drum like he was hoping to as he winced when he realized that maybe, he might've been too loud. His mate constantly complained that he was loud, and when Chi arrived, she stopped complaining. Was she used to it? He was lost in thought as he was scratching his chin.
"Grr!" Chi finally got to where she needed to be as she opened her mouth and bit down on her father's calves as he winced and removed his legs. Chihiro sighed with relief before she got up and punched on her father. Her father? Acting as if he got tackled and his back landed with a thud, dust cloud flying everywhere. Soy, being the closest to Minowa, started to make loud sniffing sounds to get the blonde boy's attention as he wanted to sniff his hand. If Minowa allows it, Soy would sniff gently before nuzzling his hand. He seemed laid back and rather calm.
"Go away, we are going to go eat, and you are not invited!"
The father laughed as he figured maybe he should leave his daughter alone. But she was his speckled flower! He wanted to see everything! His mate had to pry him away from the daughter and give her a breather when he refused to put her down for three months, not wanting to miss one damn thing. "Alright." He got up, placed his daughter down after a big SMOOOOOOCCCHH on the forehead, and dusted himself. "We needed to go report to the Hokage anyways. Think we got a mission, come on boy." He said as both Soy and himself poofed.
"Ugh." Now dirty, muddy, slobber dirt marks all over their faces, Botamochi and Chihiro turned to smile at the group. "Let's go eat!" She had forgotten to ask her father for ryo.

This mountain of a man, this absolute unit, had deigned to pass on wisdom to one such as Hanae. His muscles radiated pure power, his smile boasted the casual strength of a man who definitely benched his house, his presence commanding her attention. He was the sort of ninja she'd always heard about growing up. He had the superhuman strength to lift all the villagers on his back and carry them to safety, to hold back a flood with one hand, to complete any task without even scraping the top of his limitless stamina.
She took detailed mental notes on everything he pulled out of his pockets, from the lowly leaf to the mighty stones to the beautiful pictures. In fact, she compared the woman and the baby in the pictures to Chihiro and concluded that, yep, this was a family. She took the notebook and held it up reverently for a moment before hungrily flipping through its pages. This man's diet, his routine, she would memorize everything she heard and pursue it to the utmost! No, she would have to improve on it! One house? She'd stack a thousand wooden men on it too! 20 pounds of raw meat? She'd eat twenty five, and cook it perfectly! With eggs!
Wait, wait. She had to wonder how Chihiro's father got that much meat every day without severely affecting local meat prices. She didn't remember them being seriously inflated around here, so maybe he was using a private butcher? Or maybe he was his own butcher? Or maybe he went out into the forest every day, hunted down a creature with his bear bare hands, then ate it right then and there? That was such a hardcore approach to survival! Could she possibly emulate it?
Such thoughts were running through Hanae's head as she wandered off toward the ramen shop.
As much 'fun' as Shikatsu was having here with the addition of Chihiro's father, he saw just how far into left field this was going. After everything had finally settled down and the giant man departed, he felt a little more at ease. There was just too much going on at once and with the differences of each of these children before him it got carried away. With a sigh he scratched the back of his head, a ping of annoyance defiantly present upon his face. "Well, that was defiantly, uh, interesting? How about we all get going then, 'before anything else happens', off to the restaurant." He wasn't one to normally help these things along, but not doing so would have been worse, and he didn't have the energy to deal with anymore surprises today. [Exit to ramen shop]
══════════════════════════════════════════╩
"Your life is to short, so don't go throwing it away so easily."
Minowa was glad to see at least the large canine and Shikatsu remained calming influences to this otherwise foreign - and slightly stressful - affair. After the Kiri nin allowed Soy to nuzzle his hand, the eleven-year-old gently offered it to Itoko to smell, keeping the hand at a slight distance to allow the Binturong to introduce himself to the scent, rather than having it forced upon him. Still, the marsupial remained staunchly attached to the boy's side even as people began to drift off the the ramen stand, Shikatsu seemingly dedicated to herding them to the new location. Hanae appeared too deep in her own thoughts to protest, the training regime offered to her seeming a cornucopia of wealth. Chihiro and Botamochi... well, Chihiro seemed please to be away from her father. Such affections he doted upon her - while far more dramatic than Minowa was used to seeing - were still that; affections. "Why would your father not be invited?" He asked, waiting until others had moved on, showing he at least understood that this conversation could be unwanted by a stranger, or at least talked about publicly.

Honō's mindset was far better after a night out in the red-light district and now he was helped by finding a mission to put himself to good use. More of a job than a mission but it pays good Ryo and could put Kumo in a higher position of opinion in terms of their culture. It was in the house of a more wealthy resident of Konoha that Honō was setting up in, making himself familiar with the kitchen's layout and utilities. A request had been placed into the Shinobi office to get some firsthand experience of aspects from other cultures. So Honō thought his experience as a servant to the Hari clan could be put to use. The kitchen was a large, open space with an island counter and a grand entryway into the adjoining dining room, already full of guests. [1/4]
A trey was already set out and loaded with what Honō needed to make tea for all the guests. The Hari clan member picked it up and walked into the dining area, his long robes and glass beads moving quietly along with him. His head was slightly bowed, but his taller than average height meant his calm, neutral expression was still on display. A few of the guests made comments or asked questions about Honō's upcoming display and his attire. Everytime the Kumo- nin spoke he did so with clear enunciation and soft tones, sea-green eyes slightly lowered all the while his pale, long fingers carefully went through the motions of steeping and serving traditionally done green tea. [2/4]
Under normal circumstances, Honō would have been riddled with nervousness. In this situation, however, he had entered into it with the permission to have a mindset to treat it as him serving his own clan. And so Honō did a small display of making and serving tea at a designated spot at the table and using his intuition to serve refills of not just tea but the other drinks and even serving plates of the various hors d'oeuvres as he notices some of the guests eyeing particular ones more than others. Every one of these actions are done with care and deliberately calm movements. During which he was more often than not speaking to one or more of the guests in regards to his training, clan, or the village itself. [3/4]
It was after the individual who had hired Honō had asked if the method which the Hari clan member had served the tea earlier was how he normally would that the Kumonin had to diplomatically curve his answer in a way to not cause any offense - though the host and their guest all appeared to be highly open and positive. Hono explained the subtle differences in the processes as well as the type of green tea often used. The host had close enough equipment for the Hari clan member to give as close an example as possible. By the end of the gathering, Honō performs once again in making tea for all those in attendance but this time in complete silence, focus almost solely get on the process and allowing him to make more of a show as he normally would, hands staying elegant and relaxed be it grinding the tea leaves or holding back one of his sleeves as he pours.

装 : Thigh-length, white, cotton haori has its sleeve cuffs edged in a blue strip of cotton. The hakama is cotton as well, with a gradient dye, going, top-down, white to a matching blue. The string ties, or 'himo,' are strands of glass beads, clear in colour and translucent. A matching necklace of these beads is worn around the neck. Underneath the haori, held up by a belt disguised under the tie of the hakama, are several pouches and a blade that, in any normal person's hand, would be would be described as a short sword. The hilt was clearly carved by hand, made of bone, yellowed with age. The blade bore jagged edges on the backside ( a boning edge ) while the other was razor sharp, curved wickedly at the end to act as a gutter. Stamped in the centre of the blade was a bear's paw surrounded in strangely shaped leaves. Traditional tabi, are also worn, marking this individual more of a civilian than a Kumogakure shinobi.
