The four benders stared with curiosity at their guests. Taarlok was extremely interested in them thinking of the possibilities they had to offer.

"First off let's start with introductions: I am-"
"Councilman Tenzin" Asuma finished
"How do you know my name?" He asked slightly shocked
"We've been watching you ever since we got here" Zabuza answered
"How long have you been spying on us?" Lin asks with concern
"Bout a week" Naruto answers sheepishly
"Oh that is discerning" Taarlok says with a raised eyebrow.
"Do you know we are?" Lin asks glaring at them
"Yeah, you're Lin Beifong Chief of the police skilled earth and metal user daughter of the creator herself" Zabuza answers
"Councilman Taarlok:rep of the northern water tribe and a skilled water user" Asuma answers

They all glare but are suprised at how extensive their knowledge was of them.

"Okay, since you know who we how about you introduce yourselves"

Asuma speaks first

"Asuma Sarutobi a shinobi of the Hidden Leaf Village" he said taking a drag of his cigarette

The Zabuza and Haku speak next

"Zabuza Momochi, member of seven deadly swordsmen, and former assassin"
"Haku former assassin and underling
Of Zabuza"

Finally Naruto speaks last

"I'm Naruto Uzamaki shinobi of the Hidden Leaf Village, Toad Sage, one of sannin and war vet"

War vet? Lin thought
Sage? Thought Tenzin with suprise

Tenzin began thinking about an idea that would greatly benifit for Korra as he glanced at her which she took notice.

"I have an idea" Tenzin said calmly

This grabbed everyone's attention with raised eyebrows.

"Korra has been improving in her training, but I feel that she needs more than my help"

Korra began to look at him still unable to get what he's saying.

"So Naruto was it?"

Naruto nods now listening more intently

"I would like you to assist with her training"

Korra looks at him in suprise and looks at Naruto waiting for his answer.

"Umm.. Okay I guess I can help"
"Good now since it's been such long day let us retire to sleep"

Lin and Taarlok leave while Tenzin shows his guests their rooms.

He showed Asuma, Zabuza and Haku their rooms last was Naruto. Tenzin opened the door showing Naruto his room that had strange style to it.

"This is your room"

Naruto goes in and has a feel for the room.

"Please don't hesitate to ask for anything while your here"
"Oh Okay thanks"

Tenzin nods and leaves his room. Naruto was now alone with his thoughts. He had laid down in the well kept bed. His thoughts were racing back and forth with how things went.

I have to help her with her training? I mean I've had a student before, but... Naruto thought and as he did he finally drifted off to sleep

The Next Morning

Tenzin had awoken and gotten dressed he was also on his way to wake up Korra so that she could get her daily training in. Tenzin was in front of Korra's room and knocked opening the door.

"Korra"
"Yeah?" Korra asks with a groan
"Time to wake up and begin training"
"Oh okay I'm up" she responds

He then leaves her room and goes to wake up his other guests assuming that they weren't used to waking up early. He first stops at Asuma's room and knocks after waiting a few moments there was no answer.

"Asuma are you there?" He asks opening his door to see no one there

He then goes to Zabuza and Haku's room and does the same.

"Mr Zabuza, Haku?"

No response and sees the same. He then rushes to Naruto's room not bothering knocking and opens it to find no one there. As he was bout to put an order to find them he heard the sound of metal clashing against each other. He notices it coming from the training ground.

As he made to the area he is suprised to see his guest training. Asuma and Naruto were sparring, Zabuza was sharpening his blade with a nearby stone he found, Haku was watching the other two spar.

"You all are up early"
"Yeah?" Naruto asked seeing the question as odd.
"Oh sorry it's just that I'm used to myself waking up early"

The two had decided to have a break and Tenzin saw this as an opportunity to get to know his guests starting with Asuma

"Asuma do you mind if I ask you a couple of questions?"
"Not at all,shoot" Asuma says lighting a cigarette
"Your fighting style is unfamiliar to me what's it called?"
"We call taijutsu"
"Taijutsu? It seems very unorthodox what's the goal?"
"The goal is to keep you opponent unbalance to make sure they don't get a solid footing"
"Hmm I see is there just one style?"
"No there is many one might be more focused on breaking bones while another might focus more on hitting pressure points.." Asuma explains
"Is that all shinobi have in their arsenal?"
"No, there are three styles of fighting one is called taijutsu which I just explained, another is ninjutsu which gives us the ability to preform elemental attacks.."
"So like bending?"
"Yes and no, you see we use what's called chakra or the manifestation of physical and spiritual energy working together to use them"
"Huh I see"
"Then finally there's genjutsu which is basically having the ability to cast illusions on the enemy either distracting them or subduing them"
"Interesting... so your village why is it called the Hidden Leaf Village?"
"That's self explanatory"
"Are there other hidden villages in your elemental nations?"
"Yes, in the land of wind there is the Hidden Sand Village, in the Land of Lighting there is The Hidden Cloud Village, in the Land of Water there is the Hidden Mist Village, and lastly in the Land Earth there is the Hidden Stone Village...."
"What's land is your village from?"
"The Land of Fire"
"So who lead these Villages?"
"They're called Kage"
"Kage?"
"Yes, the shadows that watch over their countries, there is the Cloud's Raikage, The Mists Mizukage, The Sands Kazekage, The Stone's Tsuchikage, and then us our leader is known as the Hokage.."
"Huh"
