Murano was currently perched in a tree top just above the shrine and was immersed in yet another medical textbook as he waited for Kana to arrive. He had asked her to come in hopes that she could help with a technique he'd been developing, one using the chakra scalpel he had recently learned. He of course had no intention of hurting her, he simply needed a training partner that wasn't a wooden dummy ~~and instead just a dummy~~ to spar with. Having arrived before her, he decided to play a small trick on his friend. He hid himself in his tree-top perch to the best of his ability and would land behind her when she arrived. It'd probably earn him a punch to the face, but it'd be worth spooking her.

Kana was honestly quite looking forward to catching up with Murano. A lot had happened since the last time they'd trained and having a familiar face to train with would be a welcome sight right now. The moment she heard him land stealthily behind her, she spun around with a potentially devastating round kick. Spooking Kana right now could honestly prove to be a fatal mistake... Luckily, the moment she realized who was "Attacking" Her, she'd freeze mid-kick. With a sigh of frustration, she would put her leg back down, fixing him with a stern glare. After her last two dives down into the caves, she was a bit more... Jumpy than usual. 

"Murano! Don't sneak up on my like that, I could've taken your head off!"

For a split second, Murano's entire life flashed before his life. It was short, way too short in fact, which is why he was so thankful when Kana stopped her kick from completely obliterarting his skull. He raised his hands up in slight surrender as he chuckled nervously. 

"S-sorry, just thought I'd get back at you a little. Y'know, for all those kicks." He made a mental note to never try something like this with Kana again, or atleast not until his reflexes were *Much* Better. 

"Anyways... How've you been?" He asked, with a tinge of reproach. He knew that she wasn't probably in the best of spirits, he'd heard what happened to Aikuru. It was nearly unbelievable that a guy like him could just up and die on a mission, considering how powerful he seemed. He hoped Kana wasn't taking it too badly, or gods forbid, blamed herself.
