Osuteno had transported the young Shinobi elsewhere, he was till unconscious. Now laying in the patch of grass next to Osu and his children his mind wandered, body wiggled, slowly he was coming back. First audio would return, baby blabber would be all he could hear, it gradually grew more louder and clear. Next he began to feel the soreness of his defeated physical body. Every slight move reminded him of Osu's blinding speed and attack prowess. He cringed, tightening his rows together and mumbling. He began to blink his eyes open, his sight returning to him yet his hues were only slightly open.
He could see they were no longer at the coliseum. He could see Osu, laying on his stomach, murmuring to little young ones, with white and black hair. Hoshi gave out an, "Oooohhhh?" in response and then rolled into the direction Osu had asked. Hoshi said nothing, still being with little strength, he knew what he had to do. Rest... rest until his full strength has returned. Although, the kid's eyes would begin to water, wondering if he had upset Osu.
Hoshi introduced his little ones, Hoshi turned his head slowly to look at them once more, he gazed in awe. Was he jealous? No, proud, and maybe he did envy and wanted something like this for his future. He turned back over to Osu who began to speak on their youth. Quickly, he adverts to Shouyu, who he claimed was young in mind and attitude. Hoshi paid close attention, his brows furrowed together, this was surely key information he did not want to miss, though he was prepared for the worst coming from Osuteno.
Osu broke down the ranking system, what they were called to do and what they were entrusted to do. Apparently from what he could understand, he was lacking the mental capacity to lead himself and others, and to think before every action. Osu also gave insight to Hoshi's state of mind as a ninja, maybe his thought process about this was all wrong. He was called to look out for himself, and others, while being in a position to inspire and protect. Hoshi looked away still listening.
Osu continued, by stating he had much work to do, Hoshi responded with a weak nod, although he began to feel a decent amount of strength returning in waves. Hoshi would then roll to his stomach as Osu spoke, and push himself to a sitting position in front of Osu he started to speak on Hoshi's trustworthiness. With this, Hoshi almost paused, his eyes widened at Osuteno, wiggling and wet from his sensitive emotions. He had heard of his bout with Kiri, along with that his deduction concluded that Hoshi was too brash and immature to properly protect this village he had grown to love. Hoshi's forcefully closed his eyes, several tears dropping and he inhaled holding his breath. Once Osu finished, suggesting he find a teacher to mold his youth into a strong leader, Hoshi would slowly rise, eyes still closed as he wiped the remaining liquid free from his hues, he sniffles, straightened up and dried his eyes before looking at Osu with determination.
"Your words are always direct Osu-San. I thank you, for showing me my flaws, and the way I must endeavor to become a leader, and someone trustworthy. I will learn from this Sensei, and learn to control my emotions, to keep myself in check. And, I will not only just train my body, by mind and spirit to act as one. I understand now, thank you, Osu."
Hoshi would bow from his sitting position and hold it there, an extra amount of tears flowing from his face, but these in grace of Osu's words that would ultimately help guide the youth onto the right path. Hoshi then stood, gave one last slow bow and made his way back to the inner village.
