Jirou gave a bow of respect to his sensei, smiling widely, knowing that while today was amazing when it came to his developement of ninja skills, his journey was only beginning. "Arigato, Yamauchi-sensei! Dewa mata ashita!" He said in farewell to Akemi before breaking off into a run towards his clan home, eager to let his family know what had transpired while he was being taught by the private tutor, Akemi Yamauchi.
Sufficeth to say, this was a cause for celebration. A feast was held among the Kyuuzaki family which, while causing more work to be put into the hands of Jirou's mother, was enjoyed by all the members of the family. Even Hideo Kyuuzaki, Jirou's father, was slightly stunned at how quickly his son was learning. He even got to see his offspring perform the technique, which was quite well executed.
That night, Jirou fell asleep with a wide smile on his lips and the promise of a future filled with adventures of the shinobi Jirou Kyuuzaki, performing tasks for the Hokage. Fighting enemies of Konohagakure, travelling to new lands and, most importantly, making his family proud.
This day would forever be ingrained into his memories.
