It had been one long blink, she realized as she looked at him. Long enough for him to move from beside her to in front of her. She hadn't dreamed. Now she looked at him and tried to figure out what he was saying.

Ninja 101. Lock picking jutsu. Right. She blinked again, trying to make her brain work. "You'd better be a very good teacher," she muttered, mimicking his pose until she realized how very open that left her, without clothes. Frowning, she shifted her legs around, curling them and sitting on one hip. "We've got, what? One shot at this?"

Her heart sank. She wasn't a star pupil. This wasn't going to be fun.
