Spicy noodles, a way to her heart {Open}

 Scarlet silk sheer against the form of a young red-haired woman. Her fancy gown-like kimono radiated against her white complexion and felt like velvet along her skin. This woman was quite young but the curves that blossomed from her slender waist would cause some to consider otherwise. Akira wore her favorite attire to give herself a break from her casual wear. Today she felt the urge to spoil herself to some good ramen from the Ichiraku Noodle Bar. This bar was one of the most popular buildings within the walls of Konohagakure. The rumors of the delicious broth accompanied with the soft textured noodles served from the bar owner didn't do the restaurant enough justice for its finery. Well this was in Akira's opinion. 

   The dressed up genin woman would have found herself seated at the main counter, upon on of the cushioned stools. Her vibrant hair of crimson curtained across her small back, and tend to always make her stand out everywhere she goes. Her legs was crossed as she sat seated, with her fingers delicately tracing the wooden countertop. She gossiped to the poor bartender who seemed to have trouble keeping up with her soaring energy. Spewing out words of her latest mission that she had completed and of how much she despised the splinters that came with the completion of her task. The bartender did his best to keep up with her speed in kindness, and was happy to see that her order was ready to serve after the passing of several minutes. With that the bartender excused himself to finish her meal's preparation. He gathered a black glass bowl from the shelves and used chopsticks to transfer softened noodles from a pot of boiling water to the empty bowl. He then proceeded to add shrimp broth to the brim. A soft boiled egg was added to the top along with cayenne hot sauce and red pepper flakes. The smell of spiciness wavered within the atmosphere. 

   Akira bounced within her stool with glee as the steamy bowl was placed in front of her, with chopstick to the side. She huffed in the lovely aroma and almost felt the need to drool for it. The woman batted her eyelashes at the bartender as she introduced a flirtatious attitude, "Domo arigato!" Then proceeded to picking up her chopsticks, breaking them apart and digging into the ramen of love. The sudden spice of the red pepper flakes was like heaven to her taste buds. She poked the soft boiled egg and allowed the yoke to mix into the cloudy broth. This was definitely a worthy meal to her heart.

The red haired kunoichi treated herself to her spicy shrimp ramen. Allowing herself to savor the flavor upon her tastebuds. After letting herself to eat upon the noodles with her chopsticks and finishing, she would pick up the bowl to take a sip of the spicy broth. She almost moaned as the broth felt so excellent as it bathed the inside of her esophagus. Akira had spoken to compliment the bartender's lovely cooking, when the atmosphere withim the noodle bar seemed to shift. It wasn't moments later when another woman settled at the countertop, some ways down beside her. 

Akira allowed herself to be somewhat weary as the air around them gained a chill to it. It wasn't until the woman spoke that the red haired female turned her gaze towards her. Her glowing ember hues took in the stranger's proper composure. It didn't surprise Akira that there was an absence of recognition. This woman seemed almost top class, at least in her eyes. Perhaps would be best if she did herself a favor and attempted to some decent manners. "Aye~ evening to you as well..." She did her best to be polite and  not act immature. 

Akira's wandering eyes then landed on the large mysterious bottle. Her curiosity having her ask the woman what it was. "Is that sake?" Tilting her head in wonder, before quickly adding a few more words after her question. "If you don't mind me asking."

Sai woke up one morning in a surpsingly good mood, he didnt really have much to drink or eat in his fridge, but he was alive. Still able to accomplish his goals and find new ways to advance his strength. As he got up he follow his normal routine like most people do. After it was all said and done, a hunger came upon him that the feeble food in his fridge was going to fix. He knew it was still to early for fried food, knowing his father would of been red in the face if he found out. Luckily for Sai he wouldnt be able to scold him for this.

Sai finished up getting dress and tiding up his home before leaving out to grab a bite to eat. As he walked out his front the sun was already shining bright in the sky, he never really realized how much time it takes him to be ready to meet the world. As he walked through the village the same people would great him as always and he would do the same. There was one street vendor that would always let Sai try some of his food without paying, today Sai was hungry enough to pay. As Sai walked to where the guy would normally be, he wasent. Sai just assumed the man took a day off. 

As he walked through the streets of the village wandering where he would eat at a delicious scent went across his nose. He followed it like a lion stalking down his prey, it ultimately led him to the ramen shop. He wasent a big ramen fan but today he made an exception. He went in and sat down in the corner by himself, not paying to much attention to those already in the shop. He looked over the menu and just told the chef to surprise him. While waiting for his food he happen to notice a beautiful red haired women, he was to shy to give more than a couple glances in her direction. He decided to just wait patiently for his food without looking like some kind of creep.

The woman who had recently obtained the mysterious bottle of clear liquid had Akira believing it was liquor of some sorts. Sake maybe? or perhaps something else... was the woman even old enough to be drinking?? The red haired kunoichi was left feeling dumbfounded. Her chaotic attention left the almost finished ramen that sat in front of her, to the thought of alcohol. The young woman lacked much experience in drinking such a putrid beverage, but her curiosity would be neverending. Akira began bothering the poor bartender once more. Batting her eyelashes like an innocent little girl as she pleaded for some fiery drink to quench her thirsty curiosity.

The bartender denied her for her safety, but Akira was determined to get what she wanted. Her lips moved to beg a few more times. As this occurred, her eyes would wander to the young man who entered. The bartender had moved to take his order. With this the red haired kunoichi lifted her bottom lip in a simply small pout, before allowing her eyes to watch the new young man more closely. There was no telling if she had passed him among the streets before. She was definitely interested in the dark demeanor he gave off. Maybe he would be fun to play with...

"Hey, who are you?" Her words was directed towards the young man. She spoke her question after waiting for him to give the bartender his order first. Waiting to see if he would respond to her, just as the bartender suddenly planted a small glass in front of her face. Her ember eyes grew wide as she gazed at the cup that was filled with a fiery red liquid. A new spicy aroma filled the air. It dawned on her that the bartender had truly given in to her begging.

Sai smiled and thank the man as he drop a bowl of ramen of in front of him. He immediately started to devour it, then suddenly the beautiful women sitting a couple chairs down from him hand spoken to him. Sai never really had an interaction with women before and the fact that she was so beautiful made his heart beat fast enough to give a old person a heart attack. Sai quickly put down his food and looked at the young women, who he was now able to get a better look at.

"Im...Im ummmm", Sai said as he couldnt gather the words that he wanted to say.He had never been in a more embarrassing situation in his life. He normally wouldnt get flustered talking to a women but this time he was left dumb founded. After a couple seconds he snapped back to reality.

"Im Saizou Uchiha, Pleasure to meet you", Sai said with a smile. He knew he made himself look like quit the fool just now, but it didnt bother him. Every bad experience is a growing experience. Sai knew if he was to accomplish his goals one day he would have to go through alot of things that will make him grow. "Who might you be if you dont mind me asking". Sai said, his confidence building up to actually have a conversation. The women looked like a kunoichi, but she didnt have anything on that gave her away.

Akira brought the cup of unidentified liquid close to her soft lips. Tilting the cup to take a daring sip. At first she had a feeling that the bartender might have been playing a trick on her, having her think that it was liquor when it wasn't. A taste of potent fire splashed onto her tastebuds. The sip brought a silly look upon her face. No doubt, it was definitely liquor.  The bartender had actually brought her what she wanted. With that Akira sucked up the courage to take a full drink of the bitter sweet beverage. The flavor was exploding with a texture of flaming hot cinnamon. The young woman almost had to fan herself for how intense it was.

To her surprise the young man responded, and in a very shy way. She tilted her head towards him with a gentle smirk playing upon her lips. His stuttering words definitely caught her attention. Akira took another drink of her cinnamon beverage, before making the impulsive decision to sit closer to the young man. Bringing her drink along with her. Now that Akira was sitting in the seat beside this Sai stranger, her small shoulders would roll as if a predator was about to bounce. Akira loved to take advantage of a shy person. Just to make them nervous, nothing more. "Sai is it?" Her words rolled along her tongue with a gentle purr, like a kitten. "Pleasure to make your acquaintance sir Sai~ you may call me Akira..." Her lips spread into a devious grin. Revealing her rather sharp canines.

Sai was extremely surprised that he was talking to someone as beautiful as her, he didnt have much experience talking to woman. His father passed befor he could give Sai any pointers on how to talk to them. As he tried to calm himself, while trying to engage in a civil conversation. She introduce herself as Akira, such a beautiful name Sai thought. He couldnt help but blush while she moved herself closer to him. He took a deep breath as he responded.

"Pleasure to meet you", Sai said. He couldnt help but smell the liquor on her breath and think that she must be having a rough day to be drinking this early in the day. If so he planned on changing that for the better. Beliving that she was a kunoichi , she  must like to train as much as men. With that belief he planned to ask her out to train or hoping to get to know more about her. After being awkwardly quiet for a moment Sai look at her and said  "Hopefully your good with your drinks, those look pretty strong", Sai said not knowing to much about drinking. 

He wasent a big fan of it, since it wasent good to be drunk in case a fight was to break out, you never know when things might go to hell. Sai would then begin to finish eating some of his food while he awaited a response from the beautiful women beside him. After a few bites though he wasent to satisfied with food so he just paid for it and decided to take it home. Sai wasent just yet ready to ask her out yet though, he still had to gather himself to make such a bold move. Without preparation he would just do something to embarrass himself.

The red haired kunoichi could see the flusher upon the young man's cheeks after she had moved to sit closer to him. To be honest, she could feel the warmth of her blood rising in her own. But for a different reason. The few drinks of the cinnamon booze left Akira feelings a little tipsy but nothing more. She let out a ring of giggles as she caught sight of Sai's blushing. The booze has definitely put herself into a good mood.

Akira would push the cup away, no longer interested in the toxic drink. "I don't plan drinking too much. Just simply was curious since I've never experienced it before." Her words coo'ed softly. Akira's fingers would run delicately along the countertop before she suddenly leaned in close to him. From this distance the man might have been able to notice the heat that seemed to radiate from her so intensely. This was thanks to her hot blooded bloodline.

Alira had noticed he no longer seemed uninterested in his meal of ramen. There was something about him that intrigued her. The dark attire and hair perhaps, or maybe it was the shyness that was drawing her curiosity in. She believed that he would be interesting to play with. So shy on the outside and laid back, but how would he be if angered? Akira did her best to push her pervertive thoughts down.

"Sir Sai~" Akira purred the name like a little seductive kitten, "would you be fine with helping me train?" She grinned as she spoke her question. Then proceeding to stick out her tongue in a teasing manner. Instead of him having to ask her to train with, she did the asking for him. Her glowing ember hues gazed upon his own. Wondering and waiting for his answer.

Sai was feeling proud of himself, he had accomplish so much in such short time. He didnt expect his first time meeting a woman he felt beauty out shined the sun. He was eager to be around her more but knew at the same time, he had more important things to do. He couldnt let himself get distracted by such a beauty, he had seen a couple people around the village who would do anything to feel the warmth of a beautiful women, luckily for Sai he didnt have to do anything but come inside and have a decent meal. She had told Sai that she had never experience being intoxicated before, but the way she handled herself you would of thought otherwise. 

Everything was going good up untill Akira leaned in closer to Sai, he wasent ready yet to be that close to a beautiful women. Blood gushed from both his nose and he turned red as a cherry in the face. Someone walking past would of thought he was seriously ill, unfortunate for Sai it was more embarrassing. He quickly grab napkins that was not to far from and began to plug his nose with the tissue. He quickly apologized for the unplanned blood leak.

Akira then proceeded to ask Sai to train, something that immediately made him happy. He knew she was kunoichi all this time, it was just hard to imagine. "Beautiful and Deadly", Sai said under his breath, accidentally speaking out loud.

"Yeah i would love to train with you, im curious to see how strong you are. If your strength is equal to your beauty you may just stand a chance.", Sai said trying to sound cool. He wasent going to go easy on her but he didnt want to try his hardest out the gate, that seemed kinda rude for a spar.
