Meeting of the New

I nod at the relaxed scene and i bow " I will see you soon rizu...there is much to dicsuss..i believe we may need to gather the captains i have a feeling that worrys me..." I vanish from the area to the lab. I pray my feeling is wrong...

*Rizu nods to her father before he vanishes, turning her attention back to Tachi. She releases the bakudo and places a hand on his arm gently.* You're going to be fine. *Casting a cold glance at Itami, she sighs impatiently.* You will do nothing of the kind, Itami. I will remind you that Nayamasa-san saved your life after your death certificate was practically signed by that...that man. Had he not provided you with medical attention, you would have been dead within the hour. You consented to the conditions of his assistance. So no, you will not touch Nayamasa-san. Is that clear?

I glare at Rizu for a minute before softening my expression. Apparently something had occurred between them and she respected the person. I give a sigh in defeat.
As you wish Rizu.
I then turn toward Tachi. I see in shock and not acting right. I smirk as I go forward and headbutt him.
Better. Now suck it up. You will learn to control yourself. Besides, I like that other side of yours.

*Smiling softly, she bows her head towards Itami.* Thank you. You and I are going to have a long road ahead of us getting you into commission. *Rizu clenches her jaw slightly, looking off to the side in thought.* -If it works as planned...a cakewalk for him, a long road for you...- *She shakes her head and smiles again.*

I give a reassuring nod at Rizu. She was willing to help me. I knew this would not be easy on her part.
Don't worry Rizu. I will stick by you through it all to make this easier on you. I am grateful that you are willing to help me and I won't let you down.
I then turn to smile at Tachi. He acted shy and timid, but I believed it to just be a front so that people couldn't see the real him.
What I like best about your other side is the psychotic nature about it, but also because I know it's the real you and not the you that you pretend to be.

*Rizu lets out a quiet laugh and smiles half-heartedly.* Thank you, Itami. Though your efforts won't be necessary. Just don't push yourself for right now until I get this done, that is all I ask. *Biting her lip as she glances over at Tachi, she sighs.* ...Also. Do everything you can to help Tachi-kun gain control. I will also help however I can. *She looks up at Itami with darkened and pleading eyes as she thinks of her mother.* I do not want him to struggle as she once did...

I gazed into Rizu eyes, trying to let her know that everything would be okay. I gave her a reassuring smile to accompany this.
Rizu you worry to much. Don't worry about a thing.

*Rizu sighs and nods hesitantly.* Thank you, Itami. *She peers behind Itami, looking at Tachi*. Tachi-kun. You're in capable hands. Remember, my door is always open for you.

I give Rizu a quick nod before turning to look at Tachi. I pondered his question a little before turning to Rizu.
Rizu did you plan on anything right now. If not I think I shall begin Tachi's training. You're welcome to join or watch.

*Rizu shakes her head, looking up at Itami.* As much as I'd love to see Tachi-kun train, I really should go check up on papa. He might need my help.

I give Rizu an understanding nod.
Do what you must Rizu. We will see you soon.
I then turn to Tachi and give him a smile.
Hope you're ready, it's time to train.
Without waiting for an answer, I begin to walk in the direction of the squad 5 training grounds.

*Rizu nods and bows her head slightly towards Itami, smiling over at Tachi.* Good luck, Tachi-kun. *With that, she turns around towards the direction of the lab and disappears.*
