*Just outside the Forest of Death*
Hokori's feet pounded gently into the earth, the Sand Genin running alongside the fence isolating the Forest of Death from the rest of the village. She wasn't stupid enough to enter the forest, but there was one spot outside the forest perfect for her techniques. The sound of running water brought a faint smile to her face. Here she was... A wide, sandy beach hugging the river which ran into the forest and out the otherside.
Hokori spared a glance for the ominously labeled fence and settled on the beach again. Focus on the now. Let the anger keep you warm. She took a deep breath, one hand resting her headband for a second, and took up her stance. A few hand gestures and an earthen replica of herself rose from the beach in response to the Sand Clone Jutsu. It mimicked her every motion, the grey-clad Genin running through a basic Tekken drill and directing her clone to do the same.

Yoh was walking around the Forest of Death for this is where he was going to meet Kazuma for the prank on the Hokage. Yoh looking at the sticks he used to make a sundial, "Damn it three hours already I know hes usually late an hour or two, but this is to much," he said to himself as he heard something. He walked around the area to a different part of the fence at first seeing only the stream, but as he got closer he saw some girl. The shinobi continued watch and saw as she created a sand clone.
Yoh continued to watch as the girl fought her own clone seemed kind of useless to him because the clone knows the same attacks that the user knew. Part of him found it odd on why she was using sand based jutsu because not many in Kohona did, but after a while it didn't seem to matter he continued to watch to see her fighting style since she was a fellow Genin he would have to fight her one day.

Punch. Punch. Kick. Punch. Kick. Kick. Sweep. Punch. Rise. Bow. The simple rythm of the Tekken drill was made more difficult by the task of controlling her clone. Hokori tried to make the clone act as exactly as she did, but differences kept cropping up. She frowned, resolving to begin again. Get it perfect.
The plop of rocks hitting sand informed her that she was no longer alone. The Sand Genin looked toward the other, a male Genin, her clone standing dumbly for a moment while she focused on the boy. "I hope you're enjoying the view," she intoned softly, eyes quietly angry, "but it's polite to say hello."

"Huh? Oh yeah sorry" he replied scratching the back of his head continuing with a smile on his face, "I just didn't want to interrupt so I thought by standing back and saying nothing I wouldn't diterub you." He then walked closer across the river an idea popping into his head. Once he got closer to her he offered a hand to shake, "The name is Kaguya Yoh, nice to meet ya. So who are you?"

Hokori's eyes scanned up and down Yoh's body, gazing settling on his hand, voice soft, "I am Ashita Hokori. A pleasure to meet you." She took his hand, gestureing vaguely at the Sand Clone which melted into the beach. The Sand Genin considered something, tilting her head to one side "I have only seen other people here a few times. What were you doing here before spying on me?"

Yoh shook her hand having a smile on his face. He let go as he watched the sand clone melt into the ground then turned his head toward Hokori as she spoke. "Oh I was waiting from my friend Kazuma since we were going to play a prank on the.." he quikly stopped himself since he was going to say Hokage, but he knew it would be good to tell someone he just met. " The.. Copy-cat ninja ever heard of him?" he asked as he thought, "That was close."

Hokori raised an eyebrow, suspecting that he had almost said something else. "Yes, I have," she replied, "He's legendary after all. I heard of him even before moving here from the Sand Village. You're going to fail though."
She smiled thinly at the other Genin, amused despite herself before the expression died a quiet death, "After all, he's legendary. If you can't sneak up on a fellow Genin..."

"Well aren't you a downer," he said in a sarcastic tone following it with a laugh. He contained to listen feeling kind of insulted as she said that he couldn't even sneak up on a fellow Genin. "So why are you practicing here? Not alot of people come here do to the feeling they get from the forest." he asked wanting to know

(Heh. Bitter sarcasm is just her way of dealing with a gaping hole in her soul. Oh, and major invatation here.)
"The sand," she commented with a gesture to the beach, "Not a lot of places have this much of it loose. The forest doesn't scare me. All the REAL monsters live outside it." This last was acompanied with a darkening of her eyes, thoughts drifting towards Gaara... Hokori shook her head, letting the anger settle, tone soft, "I should get back to my training. Desert knows when I'll have to undergo some form of sadistic test with my Juunin Sensi."

The shinobi listen to what the sand ninja had to say a confused look going onto his face. "Real monsters?" he thought to himself saying nothing about it not wanting to upset her anymore. When he heard the part about that she wanted to get back to training a thought came into his head, "Hey want to train together I got nothing to do, and its alot funner than training with a simple clone." he said with a laugh.

The Sand Genin considered, measuring her desire for solitude against the benefits of multiperson training. Yoh's ignorance of the difficulties of controling a Sand Clone would have to wait for another day should they meet again, another irritation to supress. The latter won hands down, prompting her to answer with a nod. "Okay," Hokori ventured monotonely, "Should we start with competive drills or a no holds barred duel? Either works for me."

Yoh smile on the fact that the sand ninja accepted the battle, "Great!," he said in excitement jumping back. The Kaguya took off his robe not wanting to get any holes in it. Just then the skin on his back opened up. A bone like strucher started coming out of his back. He then grabbed it taking out his spinal core spinning it around like a whip. "What do ya think?" he asked same grin on his face as he entered his battle stance wanting the sand ninja to make the first move.
(yay my first time fighting with Yoh!)

(Oh. So you have THAT bloodline trait... Hmmm, where have I seen this fight before? Amusing.)
Hokori blinked a few times at the disgusting weapon in Yoh's hand, honestly surprised. She recovered quickly though, letting her anger out in a invigorating tide. "Anei," she breathed, triggering the Desert Coffin with her eyes closed. The sand fountained up on either side of her opponent in two massive, curving waves, the teeth of a monster which could swallow her foe whole. The sand shadowed Yoh before crushing in at him with the serpentine hiss of a thousand snakes.

Gai not wanting to interfere jumped in a tree.He then decided to watch it...and if one of them were to take things to far he would step in then. ok know all i have to do is watch thought Gai.
