A four man squad from Konohagakura ran across the dessert of the Land of Wind, towards Sunagakure."How much more?"the only female asks.
Activating their lavender eyes looking straight ahead."At least 200,000 yards or so."
A tired sigh escapes their lips."Man, this is trying...I can never get use to this weather."they wipe their brow.
A boisterous voice with a huge grin thrust their fist in the air."Just think of it as this instead, the sun beaming down is a excellent way to train! Let your youth EXPLODE!"A hearty laugh follows behind their words, and speed up faster.
"Yes!"one agrees and runs after their sensei. Leaving the other two shaking their heads.
"Come on."the female tells their member speeding up to follow them.
In the village, you where in the Green House with Kai, tending to the plants watering a few while Kai documented each one. Touching the leaves on a few noticing some where brittle, so you heal it back.
Kai counted a few of the plants looking at you working on some of them."Well, don't we have a green thumb."he jokes with you.
You look to him."Sorry."you tell him quickly grabbing the water can and pour the water on the plants.
"No, it's alright."he walks over to you looking at the plants you've healed."Just means we don't have to worry about run out of any herbs. Still we will need a few so have to take a report to request more herbs to grow."He finishes jotting down what he needed."Well, we're done with that for the day. Meaning you're pretty much done, I'm not still have to work."
Understanding, placing the water can down."Kaito, isn't out yet."you think of what you should do, Temari was sent on a mission after you both returned from a small mission. Leaving you in a sense alone, which was alright. She wasn't back just yet but she should be soon. Following Kai out of the Green House to the Hospital, when you hear someone call to you.
Turning around find Kankuro, this was a surprise normally you never really saw him during the high afternoon. He gestures for you to come over to him. Kai knew there was a reason, he says bye and heads inside. Reaching Kankuro looking up at him.
"Yes, Mr. Kankuro?"you polite asks. He cringes from your words but holds it down, coughing dismissing it.
"You're being requested."
Blinking at him confused."Requested?"
In the Kazekage's office, Gaara hosted the team from Konohakagure that recently arrived to his village. They came and requested a certain person to accompany them on their mission. It was a certain busy brows idea along with their Sensei.
While they waited, bushy brows looked around the office marveling at the flowers in Gaara's office."I did not take you as a flower person, Gaara."He touches a few."They are well taken care of. Who gave them to you?"
Gaara gets ready to tell him, when the door to his office opens everyone looks, Kankuro steps in first."I have her, Gaara."stepping in all the way and to the side, you follow in dressed in casual clothes just something simple black palazzo pants with light cream colored loose fitted cut-of-shoulder top, curtsey of Temari. Who picked out most of your clothes, wearing your ninja shoes, your hair which you put into two pig tails.
Coming into the room, about to address Gaara when you see Guy Sensei and his team. This surprised you and delighted you."Sensei Guy, Lee, TenTen and Neji?"you smile at them, greeting them."This is a surprise, I was not expecting to see any of you for sometime."
Before anyone could say anything, Guy burst out into tears and rushes over to you with his arms out, Kankuro moves out the way just in time at the creepy man. Who engulfs you in a tight, really tight hug crying on you with snot coming down. Rubbing his cheek onto yours."OH, my beautiful daughter!"
Hearing him say that stunned, TenTen, Neji, Kankuro and Gaara. They look at him like he was crazy, watching you suffer from Guy's over emotions. Lee soon joined him, jumping into the crying as well. With Guy on one side and Lee on the other becoming wet with their tears and your ears starting hurt a bit from their cries.
Tenten shakes her head in embarrassment and irritation."...Those really." growling under her breath having enough she snaps at them to let you go. Going over to pry you from them, but their grip was like iron and would not let you go. And you started to become crushed by them, trying to get them off you, even tapping them.
But they didn't hear you at all."I am very happy to...see you..."you try to tell them, but they didn't hear you at all. It wasn't that you didn't mind their hug, it was the fact you where becoming wet with their tears and soon their snot, something you did not want.
Having enough of this Kankuro gets ready with his chakra threads to use on them but Neji beats him to it, activating his byakugan and strikes the two in their pressure points. They let go fall down to the floor.
Looking down at the twitching two men, gasping."Sensei Guy! Lee!"
Neji looks down at them."They'll be fine, I barely did anything to them. Give them a few minutes."he assures you. Turning back to Gaara.
You kept your attention on Lee and Guy feeling bad, getting down to their level and heal them. Tenten and Kankuro shake their heads at you smirking lightly at your gesture. While Kankuro watches you, Tenten turns her attention to Gaara and Neji's talk. It didn't take you long to finish healing Guy and Lee, they had such an abundance of energy, it was really no surprise to you, yet it still was.
"Are you well?"you ask look at them both. Both of them flex their arms and strike a few poses before giving you the thumbs up.
"Right as rain."Guy tells you, standing up with Lee who helps you up off the floor.
Dusting yourself glad to see them alright."That is wonderful."
"That is the mission, nothing more nothing less."Neji says, finishing up his talk with Gaara."Well?"
Gaara takes in his words, while you wondered what it was that Neji said about the mission. From the look on Gaara's stoic face he was weighing if he would agree to it or not. So you spoke up."I do not mind going."you step in-between them both. Surprising the two, Tenten looks at you, didn't you realize what you just agreed to, without evening know."It only seems right, it would be rude not to go."turning to Neji and his team."You came all this way to require my assistance on your mission. You need a medic-nin, am I correct?"
"Yes."Neji nods his head.
Smiling at him."Then I will be happy to be, your medic-nin."
Tenten puts up her hands in protest just a bit."Whoa, do you even know what the mission consist of? Or what rank it is?"
Looking to her, thinking about it shrugging your shoulders with no care."No, I do not. But I am a medic-nin and is it not my job to offer assistance to those who need. As well to make sure all return. Safety of others come first, so Tenten. I do not mind level of the mission that it is, all that matters is doing my job to protect all of you and bring you back home safely, it would not be kind if I refuse."Turning to Gaara smiling at him."So, I do not mind going. Please Mr. Gaara allow me to accompany my friends."Bowing to him for a few seconds and come back up.
"..."Kankuro smiles to himself at you.
Everyone looks to Gaara waiting to see what he would say. Gaara looks straight into your eyes, reading every bit that emitted from you from what you just said. Without a word he agrees. Nodding his head."You may go."he agrees.
Sighing softly in relief that he agreed, thanking him turning around to Lee and the others informing them you would meet up with them after you changed which prompt Guy to some how take out an extra green jumpsuit for you, just Lee and himself. Before you could say anything, Kankuro smacks it out of his hand."I don't think so."he looks hard at Guy, telling you to go and change.
Quickly you leave thanking Gaara once again.
It didn't take you that long to fly back home, it was the getting dressed part that took a bit of time. Since you had to wash yourself from Lee and Guy's tears upon you. Only a 7 minute shower, drying off changing into your shinobi attire taking your hair down to it laid on your back. Collecting the items you needed in the pouch from Kai, which you attached to you, grabbing your Grimoire, putting it away in your side pack that you filled up with just a few things. Wrapping your scarf around you, slipping on your shoes and arm warmers. Looking at yourself in the mirror smiling, seeing everything was good. Turning to Onyx, who was up looking at you wondering what it was you where doing. Going over to him, nuzzling him with your nose.
"I must go, do not worry. I will be back. Mr. Kankuro and Mr. Gaara will take care of you."you tell him.
His hard focused look told you he understood. A knock came to your door, it was Kankuro."May, hurry up their waiting for you."
Moving away from Onyx winking at him, your little friend silently watches you leave. Almost running into Kankuro if he didn't move just in time, apologizing to him hurrying down to meet with the others who where waiting for you outside with Gaara. Once you come out everyone looks at you, Lee greets you first.
"I am sorry, for having you wait."you apologize to them.
"That's fine."Guy doesn't mind."Are you ready?"Looking to him, nodding your head. Next thing he starts to get pumped up thrusting his fist in the air."Great! We can now carry on with our mission! With the power of youth we'll have this mission wrapped up in no time!"
Lee joins his sensei the two of them really where into it. Tenten sighs shaking her head."What can you do..."she looks to you."You're going to be in for a treat."
"God, their loud."Kankuro covers his ears irritated.
Watching Guy and Lee still getting bumped up, Gaara gets your attention."Yes?"you look to him.
"...Be careful"he tells you, nodding your head.
"I shall."you tell him, Lee calls your name waving for you to come it was now time to leave. Saying good-bye to Kankuro and Gaara, and go over to Guy and his team. Before taking off, Guy looks at you and gushes over you. If not for Tenten who pulls you away before he could engulf you in his iron hug.
Pushing his face back snapping at him."Distance!"
Guy chuckles at her, regaining himself pointing a finger forward."Let's GO!"he runs off, Lee follows quickly grabbing hold of you wrist taking him with you. Before Tenten could say anything, she hurries after him. Leaving Neji, who groans and sprints off after the group.
Gaara and Kankuro watch the group leave till they couldn't see them, but they could hear them. Kankuro comes to his brother's side."With that team, this mission might be much higher."
It didn't take long for Tenten to catch up with Lee, whom she smacks hard for just yanking you away like that. Guy stops running realizing Neji was not with the group. While Tenten berate Lee for his actions, Guy just laughs jovially at Tenten and Lee.
Neji caught up eventually, by then Tenten had finished berating Lee for what he did."Alright, we have everyone here..."Guy takes off his backpack, and pulls out five wireless radios. He gives one to each person, putting one on himself."Everyone should be on channel, six."he tells everyone turning to it.
Putting yours on, it went around neck and the ear piece in your ear. Turning the dial, to the channel that Guy said. He tests it, everyone conforms they where on the same channel."Good, now we're headed to Amegakure."
"Amegakure?"you repeat unsure what that was.
"It's a pretty deary village ."Tenten tells you."Always wet and nothing but storm clouds over it."
"It sounds cold."you tell her. She nods her head in agreement.
"It is, and we have a mission to go there."from the tone of her voice, it was clear she was not very happy of going there.
Looking to Guy Sensei, he was doing some stretches."Alright, we're meeting up with Team 10 there. So let's get a move on, it would be ashame if they arrive before us."He turns around quickly inhaling hard, you saw his nostrils flare up. Yelling loud, he runs off at high speed, Lee doesn't waste anytime and follows him doing the samething.
Rubbing her temples from the stress those two where giving her."Let's go..."she takes off, you fly after them with Neji behind.
