Jaymaru walked into Kinaga's office and sighed. "Kinaga," she said. "I need to speak with you," she said. She was very aggrivated at the moment. Especially after that mission with Chorio. That little brat of a ninja had pissed her off very well. Jaymaru clenched her fist as she waited. If Chorio came anywhere near her she'd possibly be kicked out of the village for murder.

Kinaga looked up at the paperwork he was doing and smiled as he saw Jay. "Yeah, sure what is it?" His smile faded a little as he saw her expression. "Something wrong?"

Jaymaru gave a small sigh so she could calm down. "First off I wanna say that if Chorio Culkly comes with fifty feet of me you're going to have a missing ninja," she said. "Second I would like to sign my retirement papers for a ninja and become a teacher at the ninja academy."

Kinaga looked at her. "Listen, I'll tell him to cool it." Kinaga blinked in shock at her second statement though. "So, you're retiring, huh?" He smiled. "Bout time you finally settled down," he said jokingly, taking some papers out of his desk. "So what made you decide this?" he asked, handing them to her.

Jaymaru smiled greatfully. She then picked up the papers. "I'm getting old. I'm freaking 43 for God's sake," she said. "I can't be fighting everyone I see," she said with a smile. "Besides, I prefer little kids who no nothing over teenagers who decided they know everything when they don't." She said.

Kinaga smiled. "I see. And one of those 'know-it-all' teenagers would be my assistant, wouldn't it?" He said with a small grin. He chuckled. "So, do you want to start teaching right away, or did you want to wait a little while?"

Jaymaru smiled. "Precisly," she said as she walked over to the window. "I guess I'll start now," she said looking towards the academy. She could see a few kids playing outside. She smiled. She missed training little kids to be good ninja.

Kinaga sat back in his chair and turned it as Jay walked over to the window. "So how're things going? I mean other than the problem with Chorio. Is everything okay?" He asked with a light smile. He'd been worried about Jay ever since she'd got back. It was just a bad habit he could never break.

Jaymaru smiled. "I'm doing good," she said. "I'm settling in quite well," she said. "I got to meet the kids agains, Sukai had a birthday party," she said. She gave a smile. "He's gonna be leaving in four months," she said. "Suppose to be meeting Haru, a relative of his." Jaymaru grinned and turned to face Kinny. "How've you been?"

(I just remembered Shen existed.)

(WOW, rly?)

Kinaga held back a sigh and smiled. He was happy that she was doing good. She seemed so down when she'd first gotten back, but it seemed that everything was going back to normal for her. Kinaga gave a small laugh. "Most likely the same as you when you were Kage. This paperwork is a killer though, how did you ever get anything done?" He said with a grin.

(yep.)

Jaymaru smiled. "I didn't do it at all," she said with a small chuckle. "I left it to my faithful companions. Bell and Two," she said. "You should really get that know it all to do it for you," she said. "Kage's need a break sometimes you know."

Kinaga gave a small laugh. "Yeah, well, Two'll do anything for you." He shrugged. "I really think Chorio uses the title of the assistant more as a bragging right than an actual occupation. I think I need to start being a little harder on him." He said with a small laugh. Of all people, Jay would know better than to take that seriously. Afterall, how many people actually knew Kinaga to be hard one anyone?

Jaymaru smiled. "Maybe he does, maybe he does," she said referring to Two. Then she grinned. "Kinaga shows some discipline to Chorio," she started to laugh until she was crying. "That would be something I'd love to see. Everyone knows you're like a feather," she said in a teasing voice.

(You're mean.)

Kinaga blinked. "Now that- that is not true," he said with a laugh. "I'm not like that, I can be hard on people if I wanted!" Perhaps, not so true. He gave a glance out the window. It was raining again.

(lol, Kinny can't even defend himself.)

Jaymaru grinned. "It okay Kinny," she said giving him a small pat on the back. "It'll be okay," she said trying not to chuckle. This was a funny day though it had started out rotten.

(Sh-shutup!)

Kinaga grinned and looked at Jay. "You really need to stop doubting me like that. I could so be mean if I wanted to! You just haven't seen me on a bad day, that's all," he said with a grin.

Jaymaru grinned. "Oh sure," she said. "Name one person who's seen you on a bad day, because in my record book there is none." She then sat in a chair and crossed her legs so she was sitting indian style. "Just one and I'll leave you alone."

Kinaga grinned. "Fine then, one person? Kenjiro Hatario. Ask him about that one day at the grave place. He'll tell you." Kinaga gave a small laugh. He remembered that day. Poor carver almost wet himself.

You'll love this.

(lmfao! Lol, that was funny as hell. I'm laughing so hard I can't breath.)

Jaymaru blinked. She then crossed her arms. "Whatever," she mumbled. "What did you do to scare someone," she asked. "Because I'm guessing you're scary when angry," she said smiling. "Because you're cute when you're a feather. Oops, I said I wouldn't tease you anymore, sorry."

(Lol, breathe Jay, breathe!)

Kinaga shrugged. "Not like it matters," he said with a grin. He raised an eyebrow at her. "You think I'm cute, huh?" He grinned. His turn to tease her a little.

(oh you evil.)

Jaymaru smiled as he said it didn't matter but it quickly faded when he commented on her remark. She turned her head to the side. "Sh..shut up," she said. She avoided looking at him. He had her this time.

(See, now you got me laughin so hard I can't breathe! lmfao!)

Kinaga grinned. "It's okay if you do you know." He was loving this way too much. Now he saw why she teased him so much. He shrugged. "You already said so anyways."

(breathe Kinny, breathe.)

Jaymaru couldn't turn or else he could catch her in the act. She stayed facing the other way. "Shut up Kinaga," she said her voice unsteady. "And when the hell did I say you were cute besides this moment..."

"But you're not denying it Jay, what's that say?" He said, still grinning. "And why are you getting so serious huh? Why don't you turn around?"

Jaymaru took a deep breath and then let it out slowly. "Whatever," she said as she turned around and directed her attention out the window where there were birds flying past. "And I do deny it all," she said as if she were in court.
