Chapter Two: Mission
"I'm surrounded by fools." Tsunade growled to herself as she bandaged the gashes on Kakashi's arms where the Shadow Shuriken had sliced him open. Raiji had simply grabbed some bandage and some salve, choosing to heal herself.
It had taken the teenager mere seconds to bandage her arm and shoulder, using strings of chakra to wrap the strip of bandage around her arm correctly.
"Hurry up with that idiot, Suna-Chan, he has a cell to send on a mission." Raiji said, using the nickname for her former teacher as she turned to the door. A tray clattered to the ground as Raiji successfully knocked into Tsunade's newest assistant.
"Oh! I'm sorry, I'm such a klutz!" Raiji claimed quickly, swooping down and picking up the empty tray. Tsunade laughed, "I guess that'll never change, ne, Rai-Kun?"
Raiji blushed, a hand behind her head as she twisted to look at the sennin. "Guess not."
"Ano.." The girl Raiji had bumped into kept her head bowed, looking at her toes as she tried to avoid the Death Goddess' gaze. "I'm sorry. You must be new here, any of the other assistants have gotten used to me by now..."
Raiji took quiet note of the child's strange hair color. Green and blue. How often did you see those colors on one head in Konoha? Pink hair, yes, green, yes, blue, yes. But green and blue?
"Where do you originate from, sweetie?" Raiji asked, trying to appear the ever asbsent minded Jonin that she'd made herself out to be in the other countries. The girl's voice was young, to be expected from her appearence, but... "Hiding in Mist."
Raiji cast a look at Tsunade, one eyebrow raised at the mention of the country. "She has a headband, Raiji. I took her in when I found her in the forest. All we really know is that she's from Kiri and that her name is Sasha. Nothing else really came up when we searched all of Kiri's shinobi files."
Raiji let out a small 'hm', looking back at the child's bowed head lightly before glancing at Kakashi. "Let's go."
"We've got a mission." Kakashi announced, looking at his students. Raiji leaned against a tree, a bored look on her face.
Of course, Raiji would have no idea what the mission was. She was still waiting for the Hokage to assign her a cell of her own. She did know one thing.
The mission was a simple asassin and save.
"There's a man who's been collecting young girls. Lately he's taken a liking to girls who have demons cased inside them." Gaara read off of the slip of paper, casting Temari a strange look.
"Who else has a demon cased in them?" The multi ponytailed teenager asked. Kankuro looked up from his spot against the wall, pulling his headphones off carefully as he stared at the paper in his brother's hands. "What's going on?"
"There's two girls that we're supposed to save from a slave 'pleasure house'. This has to be done before the full moon, before tonight." Gaara said, balling the slip up and throwing it at Kankuro.
"This place is right down the street." Kankuro said, frowning as he read the address. "So maybe these girls are from Suna?"
"Maybe, but unlikely." Temari mummbled, looking at her insomniac of a brother.
