Hiro was once more surprised by this girl. "So you want to go to the Snow country eh?" Hiro thought for a moment, rubbing his other scar, the one that passed over his face. "Alright then, let's go." Hiro reached down and grabbed Meimei's hand and pulled her to his side. Looking down, a smile crossed his face. "Trust me, okay?" With that, the pair vanished from the street and started out towards the snow country.
They storm had long since dispersed as Hiro flashed across the ground at a breakneck speed. The sky was now a vibrant blue and the sun warmed the land, making the trip easier for Hiro. "It's going to be a fairly long trip so if you get tired, tell me and I stop." For the first time in his life, Hiro wasn't having to fake emotions.

Meimei nodded to his question, looking up into his face, trying to decifer his emotions. But all too soon, Hriro pulled her to his side, flashing her a smile. "Trust me, okay?" Meimei could only nod, eyes wide. As soon as they left the streets of her village, Meimei realized that she needed to tighten her grip. Hiro was was going at speeds she couldn't think of reaching yet. Meimei wrapped her arms around his waist. "It's going to be a fairly long trip so if you get tired, tell me and I'll stop" Meimei heard Hiro say to her. She smiled up at him. "Don't worry; I'll be fine!" she replied laughing as the wind wound its way thorugh her hair.

Hiro looked down at her with his blue eyes, which could be seen as the wind had blown the hood off. "I admire you. No matter what comes your way, you still manage to smile and stay positive. Someone will be lucky know you." He turned away before she could answer and went back to focusing on the matter at hand. The village had grown much smaller on the horizon as the pair moved away. When the ground finally leveled out into and open plain, Hiro slowed down and then stopped. Even though he had stopped, he still held Meimei close as he looked around. "This should do nicely." Realizing that he was still holding onto Meimei, he quickly released her. "Sorry about that. Anyway, this should do nicely as a first step in training. Now, we are going to fight again. I'll slow down a fair bit let you practice you jutsu on me. Don't hold back and use your head. I won't hurt you but others might." Hiro paused to give her time to think this over. "Begin."

"Someone will be lucky to know you." Hiro told her. Meimei blushed slightly, not knowing what else to do. His eyes were nearly the same colour as the sky now, the wind having blown back his hood. Hiro slowed down as soon as the land began to level,keeping Meimei close to his side. Meimei did her own survey of the land. It was a nice flat plain, a few sparse trees out to the side of the meadow. Hiro suddenly let her go, Meimei slightly off blanced. He described the first bit of training. "Don't hold back and use your head. I won't hurt you but others might." Meimei took the given moment to think it over, going over the geography again. "Begin" Meimei covered her hands in electric-chakra, dissappearing in a cloud of smoke. Reappearing in a tree, she sent a grid work of fine, silk-like electricity. She made the hand signs for Raikasui. A crackling whip of white chakra poured out from her, serching for something to scorch. She readied her chakra holds for the power needed to use Gian. "I'm ready."

Hiro watched her move towards the trees and got himself ready. "You know what, on second thought I think that I'll actually try." As Hiro removed his white robes and let them fall to the ground, he was giving his complete and total focus to the fight. Reaching down to his waste, Hiro unbuckled the training weights and set them on the ground. He then proceeded to remove those on his arms and legs and placed them neatly on the ground. In the sun, his forehead protector glimmered brightly as it slid out from the pocket in his cloak. "Alright, lets get this started." In and instant, Hiro vanished from his spot and appeared behind Meimei. His speed was so great that cloud of dust he raised only appeared after he was behind Meimei. Lifting his right hand up over his head, he brought it down towards Meimei with impressive force. "Dodge this..."

Meimei blinked as the plume of dust rose quickly. "Dodge this..." she heard Hiro say. Taking the quick glance over her shoulder, she realized this definatly wasn't a double. "Fine!" she laughed, falling purposfully out from her station on the branch. Landing with a thud on the ground, she winced at the sickening crunch as Hiro's hand hit the crook in the tree. Poor tree she thought in the back of her mind, but spun around quickly, whiping her electric-rope around, aiming at his chest.

As he pulled his hand from the crater that was now in the tree, he cracked his knuckles. "A little clumsy but very effective. Now, let me step it up another notch." With blinding speed, Hiro made his hand signs. "Katon: Hosenka no Jutsu!" From his mouth, dozens of small fire balls flew out and speed towards his target. But these fireballs had another little surprise in store for Meimei. There were shuriken inside everyone, so even if she stopped the fireballs the shuriken would still hit her. This open field setting would also make all of Hiros ranged attacks more effective.
As Meimei fell to the ground, she spun over onto her back and threw something at him. When he finally saw it, it was to late. The rope hit him straight chest and instantly gave him a shock. It had so much force that it actually knocked him out of the tree. As soon as the first bit of electricity had entered his body, he was immediately knocked out. Landing hard on the ground didn't help his situation either. As he laid there unconscious, he could only think about his aspirations and what was going through Meimei's head.

Meimei didn't wait to see if the hit landed, but her ears picked up a hard thud. She assumed it was Hiro. Ha ha, she thought quickly, then set her mind to the fireballs headed at her. She doubted she could dodge them in time, therefore making the needed hand signs. "Mizu no Muchi!" she hissed, a small strand of water flew to her hand from the surrounding grass, making them dry. Meimei swung the strand of water at the hurtling fireballs, dissfusing them. But the shuriken passed through, hitting her open arm and opposite shoulder, one grazing the skin above her eye, just breaking the skin. Meimei winced, not able to hold back a small scream of pain.
Meimei stood, carefully pulling out the shuriken that had dug theirselves farther into her skin. Hobbling over to where she assumed Hiro lay, Meimei sat down cautiously, watching that the cuts didn't get too much dirt in them. Setting the few shuriken she'd gotten out so far on the ground, Meimei laughed feebly. "So who wins this round, huh?" Meimei smirked, wincing as she pulled out another d**n shuriken. "I hate these things." she laughed.

Unfortunately for Meimei, the jolt hadn't been enough to keep Hiro down. He had wandered a little ways further into the trees so he could give himself time to recover from the little shock she had given him. When he was sure that he was out of earshot, he stopped and rested. "That d**n electricity of hers. I gotta learn how to do that." He looked around for something to sit on and finally saw a large rock. As he stumbled over and sat down, he tried to calm himself and get his thoughts back on track. "I new there was a reason I like her. She's got moves and with some training, she could be real good. But, right now I have to get her back for that little jolt." Groaning as he stood up, Hiro made his hand signs and started. "Hyoton: Souryubo Fusetsu!" Hiro let his hand fall to his sides and faced his palms towards Meimei when two black dragons with red eyes burst from them and streaked towards her. "Even if you dodge this, you won't dodge the next move."

Meimei heard a hiss from behind her. Jerking her head around, she saw two black dragons streaking towards her. "Oh, shoot!" she hissed. Leaping up, she pushed herself up and over the first, just grazing her back against that of the dragon's. She wasn't so lucky with the second. Just as she pulled out of the flip, the second dragon took her full-on in the stomach. Meimei cried out in pain, the wind knocked out of her. She felt the hard slam as she was rammed into a tree, heard it splinter as the force from the dragon tore it apart like paper. Meimei used the last bit of stamina she could pull in the situation to shove herself away from the dragon, and off to the side, sending her into a freefall of about twenty-feet. She landed nicely, but after the full weight and her weakened body, her knees buckled, sending her falling to the ground, lying on her stomach. Meimei pushed herself up onto her elbows, spitting out a mix of blood and spit. She panted, the punch to her stomach an the landing taking almost all of her energy. She growled, pain shooting throughout her whole body. Meimei forced herself to a coruched position, muting a gasp, then, screamed as the pain set in fully, falling back to the ground. She hissed, muttering every profane word she could think of.

Hiro watched as Meimei fell and cut the jutsu short. "d**n it, I over did again!" Not wasting anytime, Hiro broke out into a run and headed for where Meimei had fallen. His head was racing with thoughts about what her injuries were going to be but he hoped that they wouldn't be that bad. "Why the hell did I use that jutsu? d**n it. I might have killed her and christ what a problem that would have been." As he approached the spot, he saw that Meimei was in terrible pain. Slowing down, Hiro stopped above and crouched down. "d**n it. I guess I over did it a little eh?" He gave a weak laugh as he tried to see if she was okay. "Just hold still and I'll try to repair some of the damage." Focusing his chakra into his hand, Hiro tried to fix her as best he could and it would have to do until he could get her to a hospital. When he finished, Hiro gave a weak sigh. She was still conscious, but Hiro didn't know how. even he would have blacked out from the pain. Sliding his arms underneath her, Hiro picked Meimei up and held her tight. "No worries, I'm not gunna let you die. I would be bored without you." With that, Hiro and Meimei vanished.

Memei's breath was coming short from the pain. Trying her hardest not to remember it, she foucused on Hiro approaching. "I guess I over did it a little, eh." she heard him laugh. Lifting her head up Meimei gave back a wry smile, trying to keep the blood running into her mouth. "'A little' is something of an understatement." she coughed. Meimei felt Hiro lift her up, holding her tightly. "No worries, I'm not gunna let you die. I would be bored without you." Meimei could only manage a smile, curling up against his chest. He was warm she realized, hearing his heart pounding. Christ, what's going through this man's head? she asked herself, before closing her eyes and falling into a comfortable sleep.

The sky once had once more turned dark. Every so often, lighting would light the sky up and make it easier for Hiro to see hi surroundings. "d**n it, what was I thinking? That jutsu is way to powerful to be used when ever. I wouldn't blame her if she didn't want to come with me after this, but first things first." Hiro looked down and saw that Meimei had fallen asleep, at he hoped. Hiro sped up as the village appeared on the horizon. "Almost there, just stay with me Meimei."
By the time Hiro had reached the village hosiptal, the rain was coming down in sheets and had soaked Hiro to the bone. But he had managed, however, to keep Meimei mostly dry save her legs. As soon as he went into the hosiptal lobby, Meimei was taken by a medical team and brought to the emergency room. Hiro waited out in the hall and stared at the white walls the whole time. When the doctor did finally come out, he told him that she would be fine. The doctor also told him that he could go see her. Walking into Meimei's room, Hiro stopped by the door. "So how are you feeling?"[/color]

Meimei sat up, groaning. She examined her arms, noticing they had been wrapped up. "So how are you feeling?" she looked up to see Hiro standing in the door way. Meimei smiled. "I've felt better, but they did a pretty good job here," she said with a laugh, holding up her one arm. She winced slightly at the pain in her side, slightly subsided by the anestetics. She sighed, leaning against the head board on the bed. "Well, that was interesting!" Meime commented, rubbing her head. Looking back up, she could see worry streched over his face. "Seriously, Hiro, I'm fine. I don't think you would've killed me with that, anyhow. It's mostly my fault anyhow. I wasn't watching!" Meimei smiled warmly at Hiro.

Hiro shook his head. "No, it was my fault and I very well cold have killed you had the attack finished. For the attack to have finished, the two dragons would have formed a large black tornado and I'm sure that would have done it." Hiro signed and walked over and sat down on the end of Meimei's bed. "So, do still want to come with me even though I could have killed you?" Hiro new the answer before he even asked, but he wanted to make sure. Getting up to leave, Hiro turned and faced her. "By the way, that rope you hit me with gave me quite a jolt. I'm surprised that you don't have a team, you're very skilled. Anyways, I'll be off. I think I'll head back home and get some training in. You should rest, you deserve it after all that."
