Home was the only thing on Kazu's mind at that moment - the warm embrace of the fireplace would be the perfect place to deliver his bad news.
The prospect of being a shinobi was dwindling on Kazu at this point and the idea seemed increasingly less enticing, needless to say he was going to settle back down with his family until he felt his time was right again. All the way home, he rehearsed to himself how exactly he would say and what way he could say it that wouldn't lead to a scolding.
The young Uchiha's house loomed over him threateningly, a place that was once warm and inviting to come back to but now it seemed he would be confined to this place for a few months.
"Mother, father....." he began, setting his things down and getting their attention, "I..er...I need to tell you guys something..."
Kazu's father raised and eyebrow, looking at the shinobi's mother in a confused manner, "Yes?"
"I don't....want to be a shinobi anymore..at least not now. I failed my Genin exam and.....I don't think I'm ready yet...." he said slowly, looking down.
"It's okay....Kazu. We understand you might feel this way....you've given us a lot of hints," his father assured him, setting a hand on his back, "I took a break from my career too when I was your age."
Kazu smiled up at his father and nodded. He had taken his failure pretty hard but he felt as though he had to mentally prepare more. Maybe in a few years, he'd rejoin the programme.
