What a nice day for training [open, nk]

Itami sleepily rubbed his eyes and rose from his bed. Looking out the window he noticed the day was beautiful, cloudless and sunny with small occasional gusts of wind. Perfect for training.
He pulled on his black pants and put on a light blue shirt and then picked up his weapon holder. Walking downstairs, he put it on, grabbed his purple jacket and went outside. It was one of those days when he prefered training among other people, because more often then not it ended with him finding a sparring partner.
He ran all the way to the training grounds, to warm up his muscles and get his blood flowing. He felt good and ready for a whole day of hard work.
When he arrived, he noticed quite a lot of ninja were training today, most likely because of the nice weather. Quite a number of them were academy students, like him.
Itami went over to the training dummies and started off with a simple exercise - leg punches. He did a couple hundred of them and then switched to moving around, jumping and delivering all sorts of punches, like in a battle. He made sure he had enough of room to move around freely ...

Mezurashii was bored, the day was so nice and she didn't want to hide away at her usual training ground. She cautiously walked into one of the more used training grounds to find it practically fool, she eyed the ninja's for a long while.

Deciding that these kids were within her skill range Mezurashii walked in looking for a sparring partner, all the lone training she was doing couldn't be good for her. A flash of white caught her eye and she smiled, jogging up to the familiar boy she waved.

"Itami, it's good to see you" he paused in his training and turned to her "sorry for interrupting your training but I thought you would like that spar now, seeing as we're here" she smiled politely at him, waiting patiently for an answer.

It was a bright and sunny day in Konoha as its vast people were out living there daily lives. One of which would be the clan leaders son, Kuoga Nakara, jumping from roof to roof looking for something fun to do. He came to a roof that was high up as he looked down into the village," I wonder when i will be paired up with a new cell, my last one disbanded but i need excitement or my skills are going to go dull," sitting down with his legs crossed.

He would be wearing his clans traditional clothes, which consist of a black kosode, black hakama, black fingerless gloves, black tabi socks and traditional sandals as his short spikey hair blew in the wind. Although he had the training version of his Raitonin Otome on his arms, he would be yearning for the day he could get his actual wires. Looking around he would look in the direction of the Academy and sigh," those were fun times..at least i had something to do then. Now i have to wait on a cell availability and also for new missions to come in so that i can take them," as he scratched his head, he would snap his fingers in a brilliant idea," i will just find some people to train with and have a little fun with that...hopefully i do not get to serious," chuckling to himself as he used the wire to grapple onto the building and swing off. From there he would use the roofs to swing to the training grounds, where he would land and slide to a stop," Now where are all of the challengers," as he looked around the training grounds.

As he looked he would see two other ninja and walk over to them," hey do you mind if i Spar with you two..i hope i am not imposing," as he smiled and looked at the each of them. One was a girl who was pretty cute and the other was a guy, he wondered what their abilities were but he guessed he would find out soon.

Mezurashii turned to the boy who spoke and smiled politely, he seemed nice enough, she nodded.

"That's okay with me, we can have a three-way battle. If that's alright with Itami" she turned to him, truthfully she was a bit nervous fighting him alone. She could sense his strong chakra and even with the layers of clothes she could tell he was strong.

She just hoped he wouldn't be the type to either kill his opponents or mock them if they lost, but he doesn't seem to be the type. Hopefully.

[just so you know mezurashii it is Itamis' post....keep in mind that as long as no one new enters the topic or some one enacts the 48 hr rule you dont break order. im not a mod just trying to help you out if i can. ^_^]

[OCC: thanks demetri! we really need to mind the posting order]


Itami just delivered a well planned fist punch to the dummy when he heard a familiar voice call his name. He turned around curiously and upon seeing Mesurashi, he waved a little. "It's no problem." he replied and wiped the sweat off his forehead and ruffled the hair that stuck to it. "And sure thing, sparing would be great."

Just then, a tall black haired boy approached. Itami observed quietly, narrowing his eyes. He was wary among strangers. Mezurashii greated him politely though and Itami didn't mind having another sparing partner so he nodded at the question: "I'm fine with it. Are we going two against one, or each alone?"

He cracked his knuckles and turned solely to the stranger. "My name is Itami by the way. Itami Himitsu. And this is Mezurashii. What's your name?"
He crossed his arms on his chest and looked the stranger over. He was all in black, wearing some sort of traditional clothes. He seemed more his age that Mezurashii's. Knowing this was just a friendly spar Itami was sure he could be a little more trustful towards the stranger. So he smiled politely then and waited for his response.

(OOC: Sine Mezu-chan already posted i guess it is my go)

Nakara would look over them both as they spoke, his Dark purple eyes examining them thoroughly," I am Kuoga Nakara it is a pleasure to meet you both," as he gave a polite bow. His sleeves would move with him as he looked back to them. Scratching his head he would smile," every ninja for themselves...makes it more interesting to see who will attack who," as he cracked his knuckles.

He would look to the both of them curiously for a moment," Err pardon my asking but what rank are you two..I just recently became a genin," which was the truth. He would jump back ten meters after they answered his questions and he squatted and assumed a fighting position," lets have some fun shall we," as he waved to the both of them to get the spar underway/

[OCC: hm ... so who posts next, Mezurashii, or me?]

(OOC- we should get back to the normal order so... it will be you...Mezu...then me

"I agree, that will definitely be more interesting" Itami replied and smirked. He was going to enjoy this. he never held back in a spar and when he fought alone, he had the freedom to make the choices purely on his instincts and he didn't need to cover anyone. He was glad it was each of them alone, fighting the other two.

"We're both academy students" he said and moved his finger, pointing at Mezurashii and himself. "I'm taking the genin exams tomorrow though. And i'm positive I will pass." he added and smirked again. As Kuoga jumped back and prepared, Itami did the same, jumping swiftly up and back, landing silently a couple of meters behind the spot he was standing in. Pulling a kunai out of his weapon holder, he put one finger in the whole, twirled it around and grasped it tightly.

"Mezurashii, you ready?" he yelled in the girl's direction, still smirking. Once the fight started, they wouldn't be friends anymore until it was over. This was just simple sparing, but Itami usualy didn't make differences between spars or fights. To him, they were both just oportunities to improve.

[OCC: remember both, to only make moves for your own characters and not write how the others moved to make the spar fair:)]
