You, Ryu and Tsuki have been friends since you were 8 and you formed a ninja team at 12. You are now 17 and are strong, mature, closer than ever.

Ryu isn't as much of a mommy's spoiled boy anymore, he's only a mommy's boy. Tsuki is still the smartest, but now he has a sense of style and he's not a scaredy cat anymore. Your sensei, Taku, has settled for a girl finally and he's still a good father figure to you three.

It's a day in Konoha today and you three are gathered in the village gates. It's 7 am and Taku is late yet again. Probably being lovey dovey with his girlfriend.

Ryu yawns:"I ate in such a hurry so I wouldn't be late.." Tsuki:"Good morning, you two."
