A group of four. Three innocent minds- one not so innocent. One of them was around the Tokubetsu Jonin level, with her specialties laying in the plant growth abilities.
A smile came to her face as she studied the three behind her. Mere children... so easy to mold into killers. The smile on her face was far from gentle, as she eyed each child hungrily.
The first one in her eye sight was a boy, not a day over 8 years old and already he had a massive amount of Chakra flowing in his lean body. He had soft brown hair that covered his soft golden brown eyes, that gave him the look of a puppy dog made to grow up to fast. His skills laid so far in Genjutsu, and a fair bit of them in Taijutsu.
The smirk on the woman's face darkened slightly as she eyed the second child. With a quick thinking head on her shoulders, the 9 years old girl guarded the other two whenever the eldest wasn't about. She was highly protective, and proved her chakra absorbtion abilities to be off the map. She could strip a person of their chakra if she got close enough to grasp them with her palms after preforming the jutsu. She was tending to breakfast, poking the flames under the pot to make sure they didn't center and burn the food. Sweat from the heat accumulated on her brow, making her soft brown hair stick to her skin above her bright green eyes.
The smirk became a nearly insane smile as she eyed the final child. This one was only seven years old, and the youngest of the group. She had an air about her that dared anyone to try and tell her she could be beaten, and the truth was she was strong. Like an ox, the young child could flatten her teammates in any of the arena's their teacher made them battle in. She was fast as lightning when it came to genjutsu, ninjutsu, and taijutsu.
The youngest pushed her spikey red hair back from electric blue eyes before looking up to her teacher and 'parent'.
"Kiriko-Sama, are we leaving after breakfast?" The child's inquisitive voice made Kiriko look up from her musing.
"Are you questioning your Sensei Aniue-kun?" Kiriko asked as her lips pulled back in a feral grin, a hint of insanity in her dark blue eyes.
"No... I just wanted to know when we can leave and train some more Sensei..." the youngest said as the boy just snorted.
"Aniue-chan, you're just going to get yourself into trouble." The boy pointed out as he grabbed the canteen near the small camp's fireplace to quench his thirst. "Sensei has been kind giving us a break- and all you want to do is go right back to training..." He shook his head in disappointment.
"There is nothing wrong with her desire to train more, now is there Dario?" Kiriko asked smirking as the boy looked suddenly nervous and ducked his head.
"No Sensei..." He mumbled, his eyes giving Aniue a soft glare as the girl fiddled with one of her Kunai.
"Good." Kiriko said as she pushed her teal colored hair from her eyes before looking to the last child. "Jaliso-kun... is breakfast ready yet?"
"Hai, it's almost done." The girl said as she fixed the final touches onto the creamy stew she had created for the group. "Plenty of herbs and such in there to flavor and increase our energy..." Jaliso said handing bowls about.
It took Aniue 4.5 seconds to finish her bowl and ask for another when she was handed one, which only caused the group to snort in laughter. With Aniue... everything had to happen now now now now...
Kiriko leaned back against a tree, savoring the flavor of the stew that her hyper student was asking for more of... These three would grow up to be amazing killers.
A wicked smile played over her face... she couldn't wait.
