“The 4th Battalion have been reporting signs of unauthorized camps on the Southern border suggesting bandits near the highway.” With a large folder and a checklist of the latest news in his left arm, Kinko blinked his eyes and without further hesitation. “Shall we deploy 12th squad of the fox scouts to investigate? They returned from a mission three days ago but reported no injuries. The troops should be capable of the mission. We can categorize it as low ranked.” His tone suggested he was becoming more comfortable in his role briefing the hero of Sunagakure. His eyes were towards her in a way that he could convey this information but without him seeming as staring. While Kinko is still new to this position, a position that was created with no set precedence, guidelines, no advice, his confidence was growing. Kinko was realizing that Izumi was much easier to talk to than some other higher ranked shinobi. However, the young Uchiha knew that she had very high expectations, he must never cross boundaries and must be prepared at all times. He was slowly getting into the role of offering suggestions but realizing the responsibility behind the plans. Shinobi have died under his watch before, and he certainly would not want them to die under Izumi’s orders. Kinko knew he had to match the intensity of Izumi if he was going to make it. She was seasoned, a true veteran.

His blonde hair swayed in the wind as eyes examined his checklist. Footsteps from the two shinobi tapped the new stone foundation of Sunagakure. The sun was rising with a light, cool, and welcoming breeze that warmed one as much as a morning cup of tea. The street was lonesome and distant from activity but serene through its nature. “Additionally, there have been no other significant movements outside the village. Patrol units are reporting positive trends on their rotation schedules. However, the newly graduated genins are reporting their training and mission schedule is too taxing. If you ask me, the genin are getting soft. However, they do not realize what they are training for. They have never been to war.” His tone exclaimed disappointment and with a shrug, he moved on. “Lastly, the Academy has requested if you could hire some more assistants. We may have to begin interviewing.” Kinko’s eyes rolled as he dreaded the interview process. They were often so formal that judgments could not be made about the personalities of individuals and everyone had similar skill sets. Kinko was hoping that Izumi would allow him to sit out of them and work on other issues. “With increasing enrollment, will come costs, like jobs.” Kinko said in a plain but annoyed manner. “Though, the Academy does help boost the economy, international recognition, and supports the culture of our village.”

His eyes looked down onto his checklist to see a highlighted, circled, and urgent message to relay to Izumi. His body jolted into a quick sense of nervousness and a gulp screaming out of his mouth. This news surely would upset Kinko, but he would wait to share the information for last. As the two continued to walk, his eyes shifted towards Izumi to see if he had been caught. Imagine being the guy to let Izumi know the Shinobi Academy of Sunagakure was ranked 4th out of the major villages.

Izumi was enjoying her morning walk, dressed casually to watch the sunrise and enjoy the cool morning breeze. The light wind softly moved her hair around her face in a pleasing manner. The sounds of the sea in this new village could be easily heard in the tranquility of morning. The waxing and waning of the waves were soothing. When it came to find Izumi’s inner peace there was no comparison to her morning walk. As she made her way listlessly about the sound of footsteps deliberately approaching her alerted her senses. Izumi let out a sigh, it seemed the world had caught up with her. Based on the weight and gait it could only have been her assistant Kinko. Izumi did not break her stride, she would require her assistant to come to her if business had to be done this early in the morning. Kinko wasted no time starting his briefing, his stack of papers removing any hope for peace with what remained of her day. Kinko at the very least understood Izumi. The reports of bandits brought a smile to her face, maybe she could have some fun today after all. Izumi would deal with this herself and send a survivor into the desert with the message of what happened to his compatriots. She’d want the bandits to know that just because she lead the Academy didn’t mean she wasn’t still a threat to their existence should they stray too close to the village. ”NO Kinko, no need to wake anyone up for mere bandits. We will handle this one ourselves. Send the message that Izumi still roams the sands and watch the incursions of all bandits plummet. Besides it’s been weeks since I smelled blood. Tell me the rest of your business before we go though.”

Izumi rolled her eyes at the reports of newly minted genin whining about the strictness of her curriculum. Izumi felt she was almost too soft on them. “If they had the audacity to complain clearly the training wasn’t hard enough. Let’s bring in some ANBU to help teach, a harder hand might be what we’re missing. Cost is of no issue to me, Myrddin isn’t the only rich clan head in the village. I trust you not to destroy my finances Kinko, use my funds as you need.” Izumi could sense Kinko’s discomfort, there was something else, something he was scared to say. Izumi knew when the man was hiding something, she also understand that she could be somewhat terrifying if roused to anger. She would use a sweeter tongue to draw out the words he withheld. Teasing would likely do the trick, “What’s the matter Kinko, scared of some bandits? You know I’d not sacrifice you over a mission you yourself classified as low ranked.” The playfulness in her voice would suggest she didn’t seriously intend her words.

492 words.

The sea salt from the coast teased Kinko as he loved the crisp morning breeze. A bright smile exposed how Kinko truly felt about Izumi. Her orders and commands to take matters into her own hands. She truly earned the respect of Kinko. Many shinobi fail to remember they are shinobi and will likely have others do a job. However, Izumi is willing to get her hands dirty and Kinko hopes to be able to maintain her pace. The young Uchiha had only heard of her power and abilities and was certainly excited to see her in action. However, he did not want to get his hopes up. He knew most bandits had low skill, inferior equipment, and poor tactics. Either way, Kinko was excited to get back into the field, especially with a legend. His smile exposed his canines, similar to that of a dog that was hungry for blood. His fingers rolled up and down the senbons attached to his legs. While, Kinko was not bloodthirsty, he loved the rush of battle. The risk between life and death was a high that no other experience could get close to. Perhaps, he knew he was a war junkie. However, he continued.

Another grin grew on the face of Kinko as he realized how intense Izumi truly was. Just after deciding to send a personal message of the death penalty to bandits, she orders ANBU to smoke the hell out of some Academy students. Special forces may actually be able to help the students and Kinko saw some reason in the decision. However, he also saw the potential liabilities with the process. Either way, Kinko was learning more about Izumi's decision making process and reasoning. Kinko was certain he could strike a deal with the ANBU program to supply some special operators to provide some enhanced training. Despite his nervousness, he figured this would be a good time to drop some unfortunate news.
However, a laugh broke out. "Of course I am not afraid of bandits. If I were to fail on a low ranked mission then I deserve any punishment that follows." He said in a way that was fairly honest. "Hopefully those ANBU nin can help raise the rank of our Academy from fourth to first." Kinko tried to use the casual conversation to drop off some heavy and disappointing news. Additionally, he tried to use it in a way to make a quite escape to enter into the missions.

While quickly flipping through his papers. "I have the bandit reports if you'd like some more intel." His eyes quickly scanned the brief. "Hmph, these rouges may be stronger than I thought based on their routes. They seem to be able to cover more land and they are able to break down a camp to hide their presence well. Perhaps, they are trained." Kinko looked back up to Izumi to see her reaction. For all he knew, he might have be talking to himself. Either way, Kinko was interested in what the mission had to offer.
