Dark Discoveries (MinatoXTentenXKurama)

The what now?

It hadn't been hard to find Kakashi, nor to really get to him. With Minato in her mind he had immediately tracked the Jonin down with little to no issues. Kakashi had sensed her before she was even halfway up the mountain they were up. Though he didn't acknowledge her until she was standing directly in front of him and Sasuke, who currently didn't look to stressed. The boy seemed relaxed even.

"Tenten, how may I help you?" she huphed at him, crossing her arms over her chest. Flickering her eyes from Sasuke to him three time before finally locking eyes with Kakashi. "I see, Sasuke, why don't you go right on ahead and keep training, ill be right back."

The Uchiha scolded. "Wait." They were already gone in a swirl of leaves. Minato immediately appearing as soon as they were in the forest. A barrier going up around them that Tenten blinked at. She probably should have realized he could do that to.

"Just in case someone tried to stumble upon us." Was his answer to her confused look, she nodded. Head bobbing as she did so. "Sensei, what do I owe the honor of this visit?"

Kakashi's presence was lazy yet attentive, waiting to hear what Minato had to say. "You're my student, as such, I need you and Jiraiya to take credit for anything I teach tenten. Also, your female student has began to train with Tenten, you should find her an instructor that could help further."

Minato's face morphed in annoyance as he continued. "I don't understand why you would take Sasuke to train by yourselves, sakura and Naruto should have a detailed training schedule for them each to follow." Kakashi blinked, turning to Tenten blankly.

"Sakura came to you asking for training?" Tenten nodded in conformation. "Yes, she wants to be stronger." Kakashi sighed. Looking from Minato's slightly annoyed face to Tenten. "My apologise Sensei, I hadn't been thinking, there is no excuse for me neglecting to see to Sakura's training. Naruto I left with a trusted Jounin-sensei. One of the best, ill find a suitable teacher for Sakura immediately."

Minato narrowed his eyes, but nonetheless nodded, accepting that Kakashi made a mistake as a first time Sensei, one he hoped wouldn't happen again. If it did he had a good feeling he could set him back on the right path in the future. Tenten who had been mostly quiet slightly curious finally let her curiosity show.

"So, what exactly are you going to show me how to do?" Minato glance a her a second, then to Kakashi, who seemed just as curious as she was, only in a lazier manner. "You'll see."

She narrowed her eyes at him in return, while Kakashi just shrugged, disappearing in a swirl of leaves. Minato gave her a smile, one that was maybe a little to happy. One that made Tenten shiver, "Wai...." She didn't get to finish her sentence. With a flash of Yellow they were no longer in the forest.

She sucked in a few breaths to steady herself, she didn't think she would ever get use to using that jutsu. "Alright, first things first. Here." She took the water balloon from his outstretched hand with an eyebrow raised. "What am I supposed to do with this?"

"Well." She watched in utter bafflement as he formed the spear in his hand. Eyes wide as he slapped it into a training dummy, said training dummy flying off it's post and several inches into the concrete wall across the Hokage training grounds. "Minato, what was that?"

"It's what your learning to make, the first step in learning the rasengan is rotation, you're going to learn how to spin your chakra in different directions at once. You need to learn the natural direction your chakra turns in during this step. And when you can pop the water balloon then you'll be ready to move on to the next top." Tenten looked from the balloon to him, then back a few times.
