Welcome to Gaia! ::

From her spot by the chalkboard, Haruko watched as Hibiki inwardly struggle to come up with an answer to Kenji's question and wished she could help him but knew that that would ruin the purpose of this exercise. 'This is one question that he has to find the answer to by himself, it isn't my place to step in.' Haruko watched as Hibiki's eyes went duller than before and listened as his voice changed from its bright happy tone to a cold, monotone kinda voice.

"I strongly believe that every mistake made is a life lost. That only perfection has the ability to lead one towards a better future."

Haruko's eyes narrowed at Hibiki as she heard his answer. 'Is that what he truely believes? That mistakes will bring nothing but suffering?' Haruko continued to watch Hibiki's facial and body expressions as he continued with his reply.

"The reason I wish to become a ninja of this village is to become someone who's capable of overcoming any and all mistakes, of anticipating when one will occur, and obliterating it completely."

Haruko's gaze relaxed when she heard the second part of Hibiki's answer and her mind thought about what she saw and heard in the last few minutes. Walking up to stand beside the teacher's desk, Haruko fingered the table edge as she spoke, "Is that how you trully feel Hibiki-kun? Is everything you just said really what you believe in? Are you so certain that mistakes can bring nothing but pain when most of the people around you learn and grow from their mistakes?" She turned her head to face Hibiki, "If that's what believe in, it's not my place to say you're wrong but are you so certain that a life without mistakes is the best way to live? Even perfection has its flaws you know, and nothing in this world could really ever be without mistakes since mistakes are just a natural part of life." Haruko looked at Hibiki with a curious glance as she awaited his reply.

Haruko kept a neutral face as she nodded at Hibiki's response 'If that's what he believes in...' Realizing that Kenji had no spoken in awhile, she turned to face him. "Hey, you've been pretty silent for awhile, you okay? Is there anything else you would like to add before we finish up this class?"

{Okay, your last lesson is...well, its up to you to find out, by now you should pocess the skills nessary to figure it out. Good luck! smile }

Seeing Kenji shake his head in response, Haruko returned her attention to their awaiting student and smiled, "Alright Hibiki-kun, you're lessons are almost complete, all that's left is a one on one battle with one of your instructors." Haruko paused for a few seconds to let her words sink in before continuing, "Seeing how I haven't fought in awhile, you're opponant's going to be me. So where would you like to conduct this test fight Hibiki-kun?"


{No problem, and since you've just recently got back, it must be kinda hard to get back use to things so I'll cut you some slack and tell you the final part of the academy classes. It...the writing review! And so I've looked over all your posts and they've all been written up really well so you pasted. Only one more thing left before you're presented with your headband.}

Haruko nodded, "Sure, sounds fun. I've never fought in the Ukude forest yet so this is surely going to be an enjoyable experience." Haruko began heading towards the exit but stopped right in front of the door, "By the way Kenji-san, you're on cleaning duty today, so clean up the classroom before coming to join us." having said what she needed to say, Haruko continued on towards the Ukude Forest.
