The Perils of Courtship

A place a continuous prosperity. A village that held an influence that shaped the world into what it was today. All contained within the very heart of the Fire Country; this was Konohagakure. A name very befitting, given its almost warming atmosphere. He was expected to be somewhat amazed at the sights it had to offer but no words could explain the admiration he held when looking toward the Hokage mountain. It was simply spectacular. The teen began his wandering, taking in the noise of the busy streets while dodging crowds of people. Before long, he came across their meeting place; it was a ramen shop and supposedly the best in all the land, one being heavily advertised by Konoha's Seventh Fire Shadow. It was an event that was rather exciting and slightly unnerving all at once. Meeting an potential colleague in a place he was so very unfamiliar with. Of course the person in question would have to serve as a guide of some sort. After eyeing his watch for the time, Kiyoshi let out a tired sigh wondering where this "Katoku Hatake" kid was.

"He must have some potential," Kiyoshi thought aloud to himself, looking at the identification card he was given to verify the person. "To think they're starting to recruit 'em so young." The statement came out as if he himself was a seasoned veteran on the United Shinobi Forces, despite only being apart of their special ops for a few months now. "Then again it isn't very surprising considering the guy's lineage. Talk about powerful genes." Placing the card atop the table, Kiyoshi's eyes scanned the stop in hopes of finding the Hatake among the people present.

Ahem.

It was a sound that pulled the teen from his hunt, bringing him to gaze upon a waitress's gleaming smile. "After you ready to order, sir?" She asked with an infectiously bubbly manner. He could help but smile lightly in return, rubbing his head before replying. "Ahh, not quite, I'm kinda waiting on someone." To deny himself the enjoy of food on behalf of another, drove him mad. Who meets at a ramen shop to order nothing? He couldn't help think whilst sinking down in his seat.
