Kyo stared down at the counter top, trying to keep her cool. Her annoying older brother, Haru, was being irritating. Not like that was new, Kyo and Haru don't usually get along. They have to argue and snip at each other for every little thing, and it just gets so tiring. Haru smirked, seeing that he was succeeding in out-annoying his little sister. He poked her lightly on the arm. "You gonna order, or what?," he asked, his voice light. Kyo turned to glare at him, her usually bright orange eyes dark. "Sure," she said icily. She turned to Ichiraku himself. "I'll have the chicken ramen, please." Her voice was still coated in ice. Haru chuckled slightly it was sometimes so easy to irritate his sister. Haru ordered beef ramen and then settled in, Kyo still seething next to him.

Leler was walking next to Hibiki, both cautious. They were in an unfarmiliar village, unfarmiliar shops and people. Leler sighed as she saw a farmiliar shop. A ramen one. Leler grabbed Hibiki's arm, and pulled him into the seat next to her as she slid into one. Quickly the two ordered. Leler side-glanced at the people next to her. "Hello?" she murmured, shy as ever.

Kyo brightened, finally glad to have someone to talk to besides her brother. Turning her full attention to the girl next to her, she chirped, "Hello!" Haru rolled his eyes slightly at his little sister. 'She always has to say hi to people she doesn't know,' he thought. 'Making friends is good, but not with every-freaking-person you meet!' Haru muttered a hello as well, not wanting to be rude. Kyo smiled. "My name's Kyo, and this is my older brother, Haru," she said, tossing one of her short black braids out of her face with a flick of her head.

((ooc: Can you please not post in orange? a tad painful on meh eyes!)) "I'm Leler!" Leler exclaimed, turning to her. Hibiki watched them, his icy eyes regarding the new friends. Leler stuck out her hand to shake as the ramen shop owner placed down their steaming bowls of food. Delicious smells mixed as the flavors mingled in the air, irresistible to most. "I love ramen, what about you?" Leler asked Kyo. "Oh, and this is Hibiki!" she added as he coughed impatiently behind her.

Kyo's eyes widened considerably in excitement as her ramen was placed before her. Breaking apart her chopsticks with a clean snap, she scooped up some of the delicious noodles and scrumptious pieces of chicken and popped them into her mouth before replying. She savored the taste, then replied, "I luuuurrrvveee ramen! And hi, Hibiki!!" Haru discreetly rolled his eyes. "Yes, you loves ramen," he said to Leler, his green eyes flickering mischievously. "As you can tell by the way she devoured it as soon as it was put down." Haru snapped his chopsticks apart, and then carefully scooped up some noodles and blew on them to cool them before taking a bite.

Hibiki quickly ate his ramen, his flute resting comfortably in his lap. He was finished far before the others, for his mouth had to be clean of food to play his weapon, in case it was needed. Leler, however, ate hers slowly. "So, you guys live here?" she asked, after swallowing another choptickfull of ramen. The young ninja watched them both, in case an ambush was made. If it was, by the fluency of their movements, she was able to calculate who would take down which and, if all four were taken on, which was the strongest of the four. Leler sometimes loved ebing able to calculate so easily.

Kyo nodded, with another mouthful of ramen. She swallowed, and then chose to reply. "Yep! We've moved around a lot when we were little, but we came back here over a year ago." She neglected to mention the reason why they moved back. But Haru, being the annoying older brother, didn't. "Our parents died...," he said. Kyo looked down at her ramen. "Yeah, they died on a mission. It's the best way to go, honorably." Kyo quickly finished off the rest of her ramen, setting down her chopsticks delicately. She took a sip of her water, and then looked at Leler and Hibiki. "What's you guy's stories? We've told you ours." Kyo was being blunt, but not in a mean way. She was innocently asking, as usual, very curious.

Hibiki spoke up, before Leler could. "My story? I'm from the Sound village, paired with her for now. My dad killed my mom, playing his weapon, and then ran off, never to be seen. I'm the only one of my siblings to have a flute!" hibiki finished proudly, holding up the delicate instrument. He took a quick sip of his water. "My 'rents are both home, tending to my brothers." Leler smoothly mentioned, not letting the fact that she was the only one of the group to have parents show clearly on her face. Leler finished a few moments later. "Though." she gulped down a sip of water "I'm not fond of short people. Long story."

Kyo twirled her chopsticks around on the countertop absentmindetly as she listened to them speak. Picking up both of them, she looked from the chopsticks to Hibiki a few times, and then flung them with a flick of her wrist at him. It was merely out of boredom, Kyo often did things like that at random. Haru rolled his eyes at his little sister's love for surprising people. The other day, Haru himself had been ran over by a mattress when he was walking past the stairs in his house. Kyo had decided to pull her mattress from her bed and slide down the stairs on it. And boy, had Haru been shocked. Kyo poked Haru in the cheek. 'Oh I am so the queen of being random.'

Hibiki saw them coming, and immediatly and instinctively brought his flute to his lips, focused on the chopsticks, and played a single note, holding it out. All at the same time. The chopsticks froze in midair, until his breathing ceased through the flute, and the sticks dropped to the ground. Hibiki and Leler watched them fall in unison. "Hibiki plays a flute as a weapon.... manly...." Leler muttered, turning over to Kyo.

Kyo raised an eyebrow, then laughed. "That is so cool!!," she exclaimed, getting up and retrieving her chopsticks. Kyo tended to find excitement in everything. "A flute as a weapon...That's creative," she said. "But I prefer my trusty katana," she added, fingering the hilt of her blade that was tied to her waist. She rarely left home without it. Haru also raised an eyebrow, flicking some of his untidy red hair out of his eyes. Letting his curiosity get the better of him, not unlike his sister, he asked Hibiki, "What else can you do with that thing?"

Hibiki looked over at Haru. "Just about everything. It all depends. I can kill people with it, but it's extremly difficult and requires most of my energy. Also, I can summon beings by playing their song. No two songs are the exact same, even for twins." he told the other guy, his eyes sliding from Kyo to Haru. "You too? Someone I know in Iwagakure also uses swords." Leler said to Kyo, chewing lightly on the rim of her glass.

Kyo tilted her head to the left, a quality of when she was confused or curious. "Everyone has their own song? Everyone?," she asked, twirling her chopsticks in her fingers, so fast they were nearly a blur. Stopping suddenly, she put them down on the counter. "And how might that work out?" Haru nodded. "Both Kyo and my little brother, Taru, use swords," he said. "I prefer the traditional kicking-someone's-face-in technique, or maybe the stabbing them through the stomach with a sharp kunai. Or something along those lines." Kyo made a face at her detailed older brother. "Nice detail," she said, wrinkling her nose. Haru shrugged.

Hibiki sighed slightly. "Everyone is different, right? Down to the last attitude? Intrest? What someone likes, and what they are like, influences their song. Of course, some songs are quite long, and some are simply around 30ish notes. Nothing big. Now, Leler, go stand a few streets off, please?" he asked. Leler quirked an eyebrow, and went off. 'What did he want of me?' she thought, her hands crossed loosely as she gazed at the shops. ~back at the ramen bar~ Hibiki, at feeling she was far enough away, began to play his flute. The notes were light anf flutery, some dark ones, though, plaguing them. Minutes later, Leler walked back, her eyes slightly hazy. Hibiki put his flute down, and Leler walked the rest of the way back at a slower pace. "See? That was Leler's song." Hibiki said, motioning to Leler as she sat down.

Kyo watched, slightly impressed as Hibiki summoned Leler with her song. Leler looked slightly out of it as she walked, until Hibiki stopped playing. Then Leler looked normal. Not wanting to be put out, Kyo's competitive side took over. With a slight smile, she said, "I have this jutsu. It's really funny, and yet effective if you go about it the right way." Haru rolled his eyes. "And very irritating. She-" He was cut off by Kyo's whining. "I wanna show them not teeelllllll them!!!" Haru rolled his eyes again at his little sister's childish antics. Kyo made the handsigns, and concentrated on manipulating her chakra. Four identical copies of herself appeared, each one looking slightly different. One appeared bored, slightly sad, unsmiling. Another was impatiently filing her nails and checking her reflection in a spoon. Another kind of stood behind Haru, peeking around him, looking frightened. The last flitted around, smiling and asking people how their day was. The original Kyo chuckled. "They all have their own personalities."
