Hokage 's first words that came were :" I didn't expect she would be like this with you around. She did the same with us."
That brought Kushina from her thinking :" What do you mean by that Hokage- sama"
Hokage answered :" Mito has a trust issues. They are uncurable. The person that raised her taught her to not trust anybody, to hate everybody the same. That person she said was named Hagoromo, he was taijustu expert training the Uzumaki royalty in Uzushino. He was master for both of her parents. Unfortunately he betrayed them. "
He looked at Kushina with a look saying I will explain :" He tooked the Uzushino map with seals barrier, because he was greedy for money. He wanted to sell this information to Kumo. But he didn't. Mito parents were trying to hunt him down, but they couldn't, he always was few steps ahead of them. They chased him for few months. Not knowing that village had already fallen. After few years when they learned that information they had Mito. This time they were hunted by Kiri and after few years they were ambushed so they summoned their masters summon and gave it Mito who was then taken to Hagoromo. That was their end. Hagoromo couldn't kill Mito because she was last legacy from his students. He told her the truth over the time, but never spoke about her parents. Mito said he wanted her to hate him. So that is her story. The Hagoromo died soon. And Mito wandered around waiting for a chance of revenge. "
Kushina was shocked that this girl was cold because of that. She saw through her, Mito was still hopeful she was still pure but she always wanted to be trusted, that's why she would tell the most terrible things about herself and then over time you would see her true form and trust her regardless of the first impression.
She saw that Mito wanted to firm strong relationship with her. She allways answered her questions. She only avoided one. And that was because she was distracted. Kushina asked Hokage :" How old is she."
Hokage answered :" she just turned 11 three weeks ago."
Kushina was troubled by the her age and behavior. She still had to cook dinner for her boyfriend team. She did learn something about Mito but it was obvious that team 7 would speak for themselves. They knew Mito probably for 3 months. She still didn't know who would beat them every week or who trained Rin her taijustu. Rin had built her muscles a lot. She decided to cook Ramen she didn't want to make any of theirs favorite foods because she was pissed about not telling her about it. She did understand reasons. She still was mad she after all was a emotional person.
Meanwhile Mito was at her apartment she was thinking what was going to happen next. She will have to wait for Kannabi bridge mission. She had to talk with Isobu about her using some of his jutsu. They could train those skills in her mindscape. She now would train during the day. Mito was happy because now she could just walk around the village and besides she had a lot of time for everything. Still she would need to go once a week to Hokage to help him with paperwork. Hopefully he won't just stack them all for that day.
The whole team 7 was going towards the Minato's house when they came across Genma who greeted them and asked Rin for few minutes of her time. Obito was pissed he was jealous, did Genma have crush on Mito and Rin. Was that possible. Kakashi did not pay much attention to it.
Rin and Genma spoke quietly. Genma was trying to find out what Mito liked the most. He wanted to give her a present so he could show Mito his affection. Rin did have a few suggestions but both of them said that they would meet tommorow because Rin obviously had something to do right now.
Rin cached up with rest of team as they walked into the house. Obito was sulking through the whole dinner. He was ignored by everyone. He wasn't listening to corvensation. That was also the reason he was glared at because Kushina asked him something and he didn't respond.
After falling to get any information from Obito she moved onto Rin :" What do you think about Mito"
Rin answered :" She is someone who is extraordinary, she is nice as friend, she is scarry when she doesn't trust you, she is good person i think. She would sacrifice herself for somebody she finds worthy of that. I am very grateful for her training me in taijustu. While she feels like she is far away she is allways good at hearing your feelings and problems. "
Kushina smiled and asked :" So you trust each other."
Rin answered :" I believe so, she doesn't seem to be scared about taking to me about anything. "
Kushina was satisfied with her answer she didn't know that Mito trained Rin in taijustu. She then asked Kakashi the same question.
Kakashi answered :" I believe she is strongest person I fought besides Minato - sensei. She fights with everything she has, she is the only reason we saw the importance of teamwork, while sensei try he never pushed as she did. At first I didn't, I couldn't trust her, but over time I could recognize when she said something she meant and she would say to piss us up. I consider her a friend, an excellent shinobi and nice person. "
Kushina was surprised by his answers. While in last months he did speak more she never heard him talk this much. She thought that he maybe had a crush on Mito. It would explain.
Then Obito exploded asking Rin :" What did Genma want. "
Kushina was intrigued she didn't expect that Obito was jealous and wasn't ignoring her questions she now knew he was thinking torturing himself inside.
Rin calmly answered :" He asked me to meet up with him tomorrow."
Kushina could see color drain from Obito face, while she enjoyed drams she didn't want Obito to be hurt.
Obito asked :" Why. What will you guys do.."
Rin again answered :"We are going to buy a gift for Mito, she did become a genin."
Obito was revealed :" For a second there I thought he was crushing on both you and Mito."
Kushina smiled she now knew how to tease Mito. But she also saw how surprised Kakashi looked. Which only comfird her theory.
Kushina asked:" Is Genma - kun really crushing on Mito, I mean did he ever seen her without henge, because I was told she wore it every day."
Rin answered :" I don't know about that, but he was there with me and Mito when we bought the dress she wore today. So he probably knows. "
Minato nodded his head :" Well almost all of the genin teams know he likes her. They probably knew before Genma even realized."
Rin then added :" only really dense people didn't notice, like Mito or Genma himself until recently. "
The look on the Kakashi face said that he didn't know either. He looked troubled. Like he couldn't accept this fact, but he also couldn't go against it. Kushina was aware he had a crush on Mito too. And now Kakashi - kun was involved in two love triangles.
