Some things had changed since her absence. Mostly for the fact there were pups running around. Maybe some other minor things here and there, but for the most part, everything else seemed to be relatively be the same. Perhaps if her clan had been a little more secluded and kept to themselves...maybe they'd still be there. As it was, the mountain clan was gone save for her, and she knew it'd be a while before she could put that behind her. Approaching the straw dummies, Sakura began to practice sparring the inanimate objects. While she was no stranger to fighting, she wanted to keep on game in the event she ever needed to fight for her life like they had.

"Sakura Haruno"

Kaizen didn't know Sakura, but he knew of her. He had managed to work out that she'd been gone for a while and had only just returned, that most importantly she'd been away at Nihon, the homeland of his parents. He'd asked questions before of course and he'd learned a lot about his heritage, but none of it felt recent, they simply didn't know exactly what it was like there now. What had changed, and whether it was for better or worse. Finding Sakura in the training area, he stood there awkwardly for a moment, limbs too long in a gangly pup sort of way.

"Hello." He finally greeted, a little stiff in the way you'd expect a son of Hattori to be. "Can you show me how they fight in Nihon? You were there not long ago, yes?" He had other questions of course, but he thought better to work up to them, not just foist them all in her face at once.
