After a few hours later, Itachi did as he said and came toward the village gates. It was around midnight so the news of the clans wipe-out will be heard around the village about the time when Itachi and Kyoshi were five miles away from Konoha.
Itachi came up to the traumatized Kyoshi, he hadn't given in to the fact he was with the man who just wiped out his clan, but he couldn't turn back now.
"We should head out." Itachi said simply, Kyoshi nodded and they both disappeared, reappearing at a checkpoint of Itachi's in the middle of the forest that leads to the general direction of the Waterfall and Lightning village. They continued to walk until they came near to the Waterfall village's gate, which was a huge waterfall. They were on a rocky hill that sort of looked like a mini-cliff. Itachi looked at the huge waterfall, then at Kyoshi.
"Here is the plan, We are going to go in the village, and to a dojo that is at the far right of the town, the password is red dawn, there is a man there, his name is Jourin, he's going to train you so that your physically capable of doing my training. I'm going after escorting you." Itachi said, he was still wearing his ANBU armor which was blood stained due to the Uchiha slaughter.
Kyoshi looked at Itachi after nodding then he asked "Itachi, you said you had some business to take care of and for me to go to the gates, what did you do?"
"I had to take care of my brother, unfortunately I underestimated his skill in dodging, and when I tried the finishing blow it missed him, barely" Itachi said not wanting to re-cap that even though he of course was holding back.
Kyoshi and Itachi went through the waterfall, and started walking down the path to the dojo. The villagers gave them looks as Itachi put his ANBU mask on, and Kyoshi just looked straight not making any eye contact with anyone. They reached the dojo and said the password, Jourin let them in and they sat at the main chamber of the dojo. Jourin made tea for his guests.
"Itachi, it's been awhile has it…and I see you have a follower?" Jourin said taking a sip of his tea, he had black hair but you could see that it was graying, he had a blue tunic that looked old, and it had some stains. His eyes were like an ice color, in other words almost white. He had a sword strapped to a black sash, and had a black hakama, which is the bottom part of the samurai clothes.
Itachi nodded, he took his mask off. "I want you to train this boy, just like you trained me when you did your monthly visits to Konoha, I have a…plan, and making sure his training is complete is a part of it." Itachi said then stood up and looked at Kyoshi who looked at him, they both nodded slightly and Itachi disappeared.
"Hmm, well ok, shall we begin your training?" Jourin said and finished his tea, seeing that Kyoshi hardly touched his, he picked it up and poured it out, then motioned Kyoshi to follow him to the backyard of the dojo. The backyard of this dojo looked real peaceful and calm. Jourin through a bokken at Kyoshi, who caught it and looked at the wooden practice sword.
"You're a young boy, I see so you haven't been in the ninja academy at your village am I correct?" Jourin said seeing the boy nod.
"Ok, so you must not know chakra control, but first were going to start with kenjutsu, or the art of sword fighting." Jourin said and got in a proper fighting stance for a sword, seeing Kyoshi mimic his stance.
Jourin showed him the basic's of sword fighting with the strikes defenses and movements without hurting yourself. It was harder than it looks as Kyoshi was experiencing, but Jourin was surprised that he was learning quicker than Itachi did. It had been hours since they started practicing with swords, and they called it a day.
Jourin opened a sliding door in the right side of the hallway to show a open room with a sleeping bag for a bed, and some scrolls on the shelves and stuff. There even was a kettle in the corner of a room for tea apparently. There was also a stand for a sword and other weapons.
"This is your room, make yourself at home." Jourin said stepping to the side looking at the boy.
"Thank you" Kyoshi said and walked in.
"By the way, I didn't get your name, what is it?" Jourin asked not remembering any time Itachi introduced him, but that wasn't surprising.
"Oh, my names Kyoshi, Kyoshi Uchiha." The boy said and saw that Jourin slowly slid the door after waving good-night, and then Kyoshi walked to his sleeping bag and turned off the lantern.
