Raiden stood facing a steep rock wall now. He made a few handsigns then opened his mouth as rock began to spew from it and eventually formed a large bear. He then made a few more handsigns and the rock clone of his Yajuu charged at the rock wall and then began smashing it's fists into the rock wall leaving small craters. He then made a few more handsigns and the rock clone of his Yajuu then collapsed into a pile of rubble. Raiden then coughed a few times spitting out a few small pebbles now. He then gagged make a few funny faces as he dusted himself off now. "Gah you'd think I got used to the taste of that by now," Raiden replied dusting himself off again. He then nodded his head with a sheepish grin and turned around to face the village.
He then disappeared in a flash reappearing in the treetops and ashed from branch to branch towards the village now. He passed through the city gates after verifying himself and headed downtown. He spotted a restaraunt he knew served good barbeque and headed inside. "Can I help you out sir," asked a waiter now. "Um sure a table for two. I'm suppose to be meeting a blind date though I hope she aint actually blind!" he laughed nudging the waiter who seemed unamused as he turned around and led him to a booth in the back corner now. "When she arrives I'll bring her back here.!""I do know her name is Makoto Storm so direct the woman with that name to me!" He then leaned back in his seat now. "And something to drink? Maybe an appetizer too?""Um sure bring some Sake and a couple of your appetizers out!" The waiter nodded and then walked off.

Makoto sighed as she flattened out the skirt she was wearing. She wanted to appear nice for the gentleman she was meeting today. So, that along with pair of green earrings and pulling her hair back was the best that Makoto could do for Raiden. People looked her way, surprised by her getup as Makoto walked to restaurant she was suppose to meet Raiden in. "I wonder if this man will perk my interest." She mumbled to herself, remembering how many dates would end with the guy shocked, literally.
She then stood outside the doors, hoping she and the guy were on time. Once more she fidgeted with her skirt and entered. "Hello, how many I help you." Makoto put on her best smile. "I"m looking for a person." She pointed her finger up to make a point. "Ah, you must be Ms. Makoto Storm." Makoto giggled and nodded her head. "Please come this way." She followed behind the waiter as he showed her were Raiden was sitting at.
Makoto rose an eyebrow at the man who was sitting and waiting for her. He seemed interesting enough, even taller than most men she had attempted to go out with. "Ah, hello there." She said with a smile, sitting down.

Raiden had briefly closed his eyes to ponder something when he heard a commotion and looked up to see the waiter approaching now leading a blond haired woman over. He felt like his breath had been taken away upon laying eyes on her and if it had been a crime well she would've been a smooth criminal. He could feel his jaw starting to drop now so he straightened himself up and then stood up smiling sheepishly. "And you must be Makoto Storm," Raiden replied. He then gestured for her to sit before resitting himself. Another waiter walked up to their table setting down some Sake and little saucers to pour it into. Raiden nodded a quick thanks before the waiter walked away.
"My name is Raiden Yajuu. Your reputation proceeds you Miss Storm you're far more beautiful then they say you are. I hope you don't mind I ordered Sake but if you prefer something else I'll order it when a waiter comes back!" He smiled sheepishly feeling a little nervous now. He had been surprised when Shido set him up on a blind date and made him clean him self up. His hair was gelled back and he was wearing a nice dress shirt and pair of pants. He didn't want to screw this up and he prayed he didn't. A waiter then returned to their table. "Are you ready to order something," the waiter asked now. Raiden nodded and opened his own menu now.
"I'll have some smoked salmon with a order of shrimp on the side." Raiden then snapped his menu shut and looked to Makoto. "And you Miss Storm? What will you have?" He would then walk away after taking her order. Raiden then rubbed his hands together getting a little more nervous now. "I guess while we wait we should ask each other stuff about ourselves. I'll go first I guess. So Makoto what is it you look for in a guy?" He hoped it was some good qualities he posessed.

After Makoto sat herself down, she smiled and nodded. "Yes I am." She laughed as he complimented her. "I don't mind sake at all." Makoto still considered herself a new dinker, there were a few things she didn't like, but she did enjoy sake. When she was asked by Shido of the Yajuu clan to go out with his brother, Makoto was quiet shocked but took the offer to meet his brother. Raiden did have some good looks, she remembering seeing him around briefings before missions.
Makoto quickly skimmed the mean. "I'll have curry rice with chicken." She smiled up at the man. Makoto watched the waiter walk away and then turned her attention back to Raiden. "Heh. What I want in a man. Well, he has to be kind and gentle first off. He can't be intimidated by a woman, but he also has to understand the woman to get past that wall. A man lastly has to be able to balance both his work and romantic side." Makoto nodded slowly at what she just said.
"What about you? What do you want to see in a woman?" She rose a brow, shooting the question back.

"I'm not a heavy drinker just the occasionaly drink or two," Raiden replied. He was surprised Shido had known someone like her and would have to thank him later if the date went okay. He knew she was familiar he had often seen her on mission briefings but hadn't had the time to approach her because of the briefings. "Hm that's a good choice I hear that's one of their best meals here. Personally the barbeque is my favorite. It's the only real things that satisfies my hunger after intense Yajuu training!" He then watched the waiter walk away and poured her some Sake before pouring himself some. He then looked at her sipping his little saucer now as she began answering his question now.
"I know I'm pretty big like a bear but I can be gentle when I need to be. Women don't intimidate me it's usually the other way around because of my height and muscular build. I think I can manage to balance the two should I be dating someone at the time!" He looked serious now as he sipped his sake. When he had been with Angelica he had treated her like a goddess. He would do anything to appease her and got her gifts every chance he got. He was intimidated sometimes by her serious demeanor but he had loved that most about her. He smiled when she spat the question back at him now.
"Well for starters a great personality. It's not all about looks for me it's whats underneath that exterior. Second she has to be ambitious and determined. Not afraid to stand up for herself and take control when she needs to. Lastly like you said for a guy she has to be able to balance her work life with her romantic one. I don't expect a dinner waiting for me every night. I just want to know she cares about me and how i'm doing." He sipped some more Sake now then set his little saucer done. Angelica and been all of those things and more. He knew he'd never find another woman like her but he wanted something close enough.

"Yeah, same here I don't like to drink too much." Makoto nodded slowly, taking a sip of sake. "I love getting that meal when I have the chance." She then laughed at the end after he mentioned his Yajuu training. Makoto then eyed the water as he poured more sake into her small saucer and quietly thanked him.
She then laughed when he said that many women were intimidated by him and his built. Men were only afraid of her reject or unamused look that she would give them when they tried to show off. So far the Makoto, Raiden was doing a good job on not showing off. Makoto then quieted down after seeing his serious face, but smirked when he smiled again.
She nodded slowly hearing what he wanted in a woman. To her it was almost the same thing that she wanted in a man. "Those are good things." Makoto smiled big at him.

"I'm glad you think so Miss Storm," Raiden replied. It was a relief to know that she shared the same interests as him. His biggest obstacle would be her accepting his Yajuu. If she wasn't afraid of that like Angelica she they might have a future together. He nodded setting his Sake aside as the waiter approached now with their entrees. He smiled fighting the urge to lick his lips as he eyed his smoked salmon dinner now his Yajuu threatening to take over his eating habits now. He grinned sheepishly grabbing his silverware now. That was one of the reasons he had earned the nickname bigbear was of what he ate. He mostly ate things a bear would and that made sense since his Yajuu was a bear after all.
"So what have you heard about my clan Makoto," Raiden spoke up now. He then cut up some of his smoked salmon now taking a bite now chewing with his mouth closed. He then swallowed it and glanced at Makoto again. "I do know you come from the Storm clan and had a falling out of sorts so I wont bug you about that." He had also heard about her reputation with men but he wouldn't bring that up either for now. Shooting them down it must've been apparent none of them had the qualities she mentioned earlier. He then ate another bite of his smoked salmon.
