Training for justice.

Kiru could nearly feel the nature chakra now. This boy's clan.. passively gathered it? The transformation looked like a failed sage form, but without turning into a statue. It was amazing, and exactly what Kiru was looking for. "I will give you all of my money for your DNA..wait that didn't sound right.."
He thought for a moment, considering his words character. "Ok, let me explain a bit. If you haven't noticed, i'm not from here. My village was way up north, a peaceful town known as Yukigakure. Until recently I had lived and served there as a ninja, until one day I was called away for a mission. On my way back, a Demon man named Youka invaded. He slaughtered everyone and hung their bodies up on display."
Kiru had to give himself a minute to gather himself. "I've sort of been wandering with a small band of survivors, trying to get strong enough to survive a fight with him. That power you have, it feels exactly like sage mode, and ability I can't learn. But if you let me do a, completely safe I add, surgery, I may be able to perfect it and gain the power to stop him from hurting anyone else. I could also pay you around 20,000 ryo, as well as a piece of armor for your help. I know this sounds like a weird request, but i'm willing to do anything to stop him from hurting more innocents."

He stopped to let the boy think. The question was ludicrous yes, but this power was almost neccesary to Kiru.  If he could get even close to the power of sage mode he would be a lot stronger. He knew the boy would be safe during the procedure, and he could join if he so wished. Kiru imagined with the training he already had he could teach him a lot.

James was taken aback for just a second, as Kiru made his request. His first thought was, "No way in hell. we just meet."
But a little voice in the back of his mind said, "He's like what you could become if that monster Youka actually existed and came here. Imagine that maybe we can help each other out. He'll even pay us, which will go a long way to help improving ourselves, plus he might even train us."
James debated with himself, back an forth, for a little bit, then he smiled and looked at Kiru and said, "I want in. I want to come with you. I don't want this demon to hurt Konoha. But I need to get stronger first before I can do so, so instead I agree to your terms. And whenever I get strong enough, I'll come find you and help you."
He then put out his hand and said, "Do we have a deal then?"

Kiru was, admittedly suprised the boy said yes. He nodded and smiled. "Ok, i'll have to set a few things up. While you wait on me, you should be able to complete your genin exam. I'll also give you this as a down payment."
Poofing into his hand was a small bracelet like thing. Its previous owner hadn't gotten the chance to use it, so Kiru figured this kid would have some use of it. Handing it to him, he'd turn to leave. "Just press your chakra into it and it'll activate into armor. I'll see you soon, make sure you're all good and ranked up when we meet again."
He would wave and body flicker away, disapearing in an instant.

EXIT

-1 Titans Bane

James takes the item handed to him, and grins.
"Awesom-," he starts to say, before letting lose a gasp as Kiru seemed to just disappear. 
"Wow, I want to be taught that." He smiles and laughs. "I wonder what that move of instant disappearing is even called. Might have to look it up or ask him when we next meet him."
He then looks at the item in his hand and says, "A wristband, and one that changes into armor. Sounds awesome."
He puts the wristband on his left wrist, and then presses his chakra into into it. The armor springs into existance around him. James looks down and sees, silver and black.
"Awesome. This is pretty great. I'm really glad that Kiru was willing to parts with such an item." Kaos says outloud to himself.
He presses his chakra into the aror and it transforms back into a wristband on his left hand.
He smiles and then says, "Let's go take this genin exam."
He leaves the training ground.
