In the mean time...
The ride on the giant, white clay bird was a new experience for Elle, especially the way Deidara was holding her. Elle hadn't ever been in a relationship and hadn't even had her first kiss! Deidara and Elle arrive at a caravan and Deidara helps Elle off the clay bird. The blonde walked over, got his clay then walked back over to the bird. A small smirk crossed the blondes lips as he looked at Elle. "Hey Elle un, try getting on the bird without any help un." He said and smiled lightly, trying to hold back his to come laughter. Elle blinked but looked at the bird, gulping slightly before placing her hands on it, counting to 3 before jumping up into the air. She jumped pretty high into the air but had tried to quickly tilt towards the back of the bird. Her outfit ( . ?1 ) when she jumped up, showed a little of her butt but she wasn't aware. That made the guy watching blush lightly and look away. Elle luckily was able to turn herself in midair to the bird and landed safely on the clay bird. She smiled at her achievement and looked down at the blonde. "Wow, you actually did it.." Deidara said in amazement before jumping onto the bird next to her. "Now can you stay on.." He added with a devious smirk. The clay figure flapped it's wings before taking to the sky making Elle yelp and hold onto Deidara. Deidara glanced back at her and smiled as they headed back towards the base.
Kisame sat at the waters edge for awhile longer after his chat with Janice, thinking hard about what she had told him.'I'm gorgeous, huh?' He thought and shrugged it away, standing up and walking back inside the base. He was bored and didn't want to play any more monopoly with Kakuzu so he instead went to the training room. The training room was full up holes in the walls and cracks in the ceiling along with somewhat large craters in the ground. Janice had been training and improving fast along with her friend, Elle. Elle was still stuck on learning jutsu but had mastered the Kagebushin no Jutsu( translation: Art of the Shadow Clones ). Janice had already figured out how to do a few jutsu herself. Next in training, figure out the girls chakra nature.
Once back at the base, Sasori came out and Deidara sighed. "Alright ponytail, let's get to training her." The puppet said with his arms crossed over his chest as he reached into his cloak and pulled out a paper. He stepped close to Elle and handed her the paper. "All you have to do is focus your chakra into that piece of paper. Is it cuts clean in half, your chakra nature is wind. If it wrinkles, your chakra nature is lightning. If it burns to ashes, your chakra nature is fire. If it crumbles into dust, your chakra nature is Earth. And lastly, if it gets soggy and falls, your chakra nature is Water." Sasori spoke and Elle nodded. She looked at the slip of paper and focused her chakra to it. The paper was soon burnt to a crisp, making her look a little shocked. "Your chakra nature is fire. Meaning only Fire Style jutsu will be allowed to be used." Deidara added and yawned. Training and listening to people talk wasn't his thing.
Elle just nodded and let the ashes fall from her hand onto the ground, wiping her hands together to get any left over remains off her hands. Now the only questions going through Elle's head were: 'I wonder if Janice is alright.. or if she has her chakra nature..'
What do you wish for at night?
