-Cue See My Tears-

Huff huff "Get up Naruto, redo the katas from the top" demanded Minato Namikaze coldly. Naruto had been training for hours under the tutelage of his father, wiping the sweat pouring down his face he glanced up into those ice cold dark orbs that normally held such warmth when they usually fell upon him. But this was the side of the hokage only seen by his students, though he was kind and caring, he was brutal when it came to training. Easing his breathing, the young namikaze shifted into his stance. Learning the animal styles of the Liu he ba fa (6 harmonies 8 methods boxing). A form of internal Chinese martial arts. He was nowhere near proficient but that was to be expected in one so young. His father thought it best to teach him the styles before helping him create his own fighting style, contemplating having Maito Guy give Naruto lessons when he could.

Leaving his thoughts Minato witnessed his son incorporating weapons into his kata. Brandishing two seventeen and a half inch partially serrated short swords. Handles black as a starless night reflecting no light, they were gripped for comfortable handling, no gaurds with a blade being bright crimson. On the flat sides of each blade were the etched images of a fox, a gift from his mother when he turned 6. It had been her intention to teach him kenjutsu but she was always away on missions. Naruto was graceful as he flowed through the kata, his blades held in reverse grip as he went through the Dragon kata. Turning into a left heel kick he slashed with his blades, twisting with each slash he crouched low while sweeping both short swords parallel to the ground before rising up on his right leg, left leg raised and poised perfectly with his left sword held horizontal in front of his chest and right sword over his shoulder defending his back ready to swing at a moments notice.

Clapping to signify the end of the days session, Minato beamed at his son for his hardwork and the ever so elegant display. Dropping to a knee Naruto bowed his head before speaking "Tou-sama, may i retire for the day and visit the other clan heirs?" It was no surprise to the elder blonde that his son wished to play but he felt like prying information from his son. "Which clan heir would you like to visit specifically Naru-kun? Is it the Hyuuga heiress or maybe the Yamanaka heiress? Hmm no if i remember correctly you were close the the Kurama heiress just the other day... maybe you were planning on finally confessing your crush on her, hmm sochi?" Blushimg madly the young Namikaze just kept his head down while denying anything of the sort. stating that he just wished to gather his fellow heirs and heiresses of the clans for some quality bonding time, after all they were going to be classmates in a couple days.
