Alex sighed sadly, looking down. It got quiet until Shiizuya started to cry. "Im going to go train Alex." Eric said, and with that they were gone. 

James looked down at Shizuya and bounced him a little. "S'ok. Mommys gonna be ok..." He told him. Shizuya cried louder. "I know... Imma bad daddy huh?" He asked. He hugged Shizuya.

-

Eric made sure Alex wasn't dizzy before he did anything.  

Soon Kankuro and Temari appeared with Tsumai in their arms.Naruto and Kib had went to go train."After we fought Deidara,Tsumai threw up the just pas.sed out"Kankuro said as the laid her on the bed.Temari looked at Shizuya."So this is the famous Shizuya,huh?"She asked."May I hold him?"She said,smiling.

~

 Maru appeared behind Alex. 

"Sure." James said, handing Shizuya to temari then checking on Tsumai. 

-

Alex wasn't at all aware the Alex was here, too preoccupied in not falling to hear him. "Maru's here." Eric said, stepping away from Alex. "..." "Right behind you." Alex nodded.  

"Some advice Alex.Don't thinking about falling.Imagine yourself standing on the ground"Maru whispered in his ear.

~

"Hey there little guy"Temari said.Tsumai jumped up,accidently kicking James."Oh my god!James!?I'm so sorry,love"she said.

"Easier said than done." Alex said, maybe a little harder than he meant to, but his advice made him feel better. "Mar, could c=you stand back a little?" Eric asked, trying not to upset him or anything.

-

 James groaned, rubbing his jaw. "Yeah. i'm good." james answered.

Maru nodded and quickly kissed Alex's cheek before moving back.

~

She crawled over to him and sighed."I'm so sorry"She said,tears flowed from her face.Kankuro chuckled,but quickly shut up as he was pinned to the wall by five kunai.

"Stand up straight." Eric commanded, Alex did what he was told. "Good, now, deep breaths and clear your mind completely. There shouldn't be anything on your mind right now." Eric said. Alex started to breath deeply and clear his mind. "Alexander?" Eric asked, "Hm?" "Mind clear?" He asked. "Yeah..." Eric moved forward, "I need you to listen to where I am." Eric said, taking Alex's hand and putting something into and stepping back. Alex felt it and realized it was a kunai.

"A kunai?" Alex asked. "Yeas, mind clear Alexander." Eric warned. Alex nodded. "Ok, I want you to listen for me, and when you pin-point me I want you to throw that at me." "THROW it? Im not gonna throw this at -" "Clear mind." Alex sighed. Eric moved and Alex gripped the Kunai, listening intently. He pinpointed him and threw it with impressive speed and force. Eric manged to dodge it last minute and it lodges itself into a tree. "Eric?" "Excellent!" Eric laughed, "You almost had there!" He said excitedly. "hats not good!" Alex argued. 

-

James laid Tsumai back down onto the bed. 

Maru smirked and smiled.

~

Tsumai wouldn't let James go as she slept.Temari laid Shizuya in his crib,smiling.

Eric tried to get the kunai out of the tree and failed, "Again." Eric said, giving Alex two kunai this time. "Eric i really don't wanna -" "Forget about me! K? Concentrate. Clear your mind." Alex cleared his mind. "ready." he said and Eric moved, much quieter this time. But this time Alex got him almost immediately, throwing one kunai, listening to which direction Eric dodged before he threw the next one. Eric jumped back, the kunai ripping his jacket. He smiled excitedly. "Again." Eric said, giving him more kunai. Five this time. "You didn't tell me how i did." Alex said. "Genious." Eric answered, "Now, again." Alex brought up the kunai. 

-

James cuddled back, thinking about what he was gonna do in the future. 

Maru watched and smiled.

~

Soon she woke up.Temari and Kankuro had left.

James smiled. "Hey." he said quietly. "How do you feel?" He asked.

"Im just thinking." James answered, holding her hand over his face.

-

 Eric moved, making as little noise as there was possible. Alex threw kunai, one to make him move and make a bigger sound. Two more to try and hit him, another to move him again and the other went for were Eric was gonna be instead of where he was. The last kunai hit its mark and cut Eric across the cheek. Eric drew a quick breath, "Excellent! You got it!" Eric exclimed, wipping off his cheek.
