About a day has passed after Masaaki completed his exploration of the land of fire before he took up the last two D-rank Priority missions, supply run and setting up camp. Laid out on bed he read out the note of his first goal, supply run.

“The army training camp located on the western side of Konohagakure is running war games and needs somebody to do a supply run for them. Pick up the supplies from the administration building and take them to the Army Training Camp as quickly as possible.” Muttered the boy as he read out the note before reading the part about the ice cream, oh so he can’t afford to stall or linger can if he is to get a chance to have a taste of ice cream, and the uchiha looks anything yummy.

He pushed himself out of bed and made his way across the city to the admin building to collect the supplies, his eyes ever vigilant as it automatically scanned everything around him, from the children playing in the streets, to the birds on the wires, and the dogs lying down on the streets. It never fails to make Masaaki smile, how the animals enjoy their non-complicated lives with little strife, not like humans, everything is fragile and easy to knock down.

Along the way, Asura talked everyone’s ears off (well eyes when it comes to Masaaki) about how utterly important ti was to have these camps, how they would contribute to the war effort and protecting Konoha. While Masaaki is all for that he couldn’t help but think the man should give it a rest for a little bit so as a result, he did end up spacing out. Eventually the group reached their location and met the other half of their comrade within the forest, Masaaki observed them all, each are different in both appearance and personality. Overall there was three males and three females and one male child, each with different shades of hair colour, facial features (except for the eyes of the Byakuga clan.) and three of them owned nin dogs and the rest used summons and seals. They seemed like genuine good people if not a little ignorant to his deafness. He bowed politely and introduced himself as Uchiha Masaaki, the name tasted like venom on his tongue. This brought forth a rather somewhat unpleasant reaction from the group (In Masaaki’s eyes) he could already tell they were impressed with a uchiha Genin and no doubt already forming unrealistic expectations in their minds. The troops introduced themselves as Sora, Taki, Kimitada, Ichigo, Amino and Mia. Again, they seemed like pleasant people.

Asura explained their goals of the mission before the group set off towards various sites of the camp, the plan was for each forest, they are to set up one camp and one look out as a precaution. Each of the members carried their own supplies and Masaaki was lumped with the job of carrying all the radio equipment. It made him kind of happy, that he wasn’t being treated as a genin and was given a rather (well somewhat) important duty. One day he will reach their level, and afterwards? Well who knows what the future holds for him. They did it this way for the rest of the day and before Masaaki knew it, the sun was beginning to set just as soon as they arrived at the last site. He thanked the troops and before heading back home spent some time by the camp fire with them, lip-reading their stories war heroics. He normally doesn’t like war, but heroic acts he can listen to. By dusk he thanked the troops again and exited the camp and made his way back to the village to receive his gold and the knowledge he completed yet another mission. Maybe he isn’t doing too badly at this shinobi thing after all.
