Spoiler:

Well, getting a mission that needed a lot more priority than the regular missions wasn't all that exceptional, except for the part that it was a mission involving the Fire Nation's army, which always had a division near and around Konoha, both for internak safety as well as for the good relations between the Hokage and his staff and the Fire lord and his council, making sure that both would always know their place and keep believing in eachother with the outmost respect and honor.

Getting a mission to work a bit for the fire nation's army seemed a lot more interesting than the day to day routine of catching lost pets, solving some weed or mole infestation and even the mission she once did to retrieve a big ape seemed to fall to nothing compared with missions that specifically where stated to be priority missions, so they were more important than normal ones involving probably more enticing and more diFficult and more dangerous tasks...at least that was what Risu thought earlier that morning.

earlier that day:

"I think these missions could suit you very well, Risu," The handsome Ouroboros regent laughed, while placing signature after signature on documents he had to be processing as part of the Hokage's advisory council. "These priority missions are having good wages compared to the regular missions for your rank, that way you'd be able to afford something extra, which you should've been able to if you just came back living here."

"More pay sure sounds interesting, not to mention them being army missions," The young kunoichi said calmly, though with a soft grin on her face, which showed how glad she was with the idea of having some decent wages for something more than those regular, mostly boring missions. "And no, I'm perfectly fine living on my own, you know well enough that this place gives me a bad mood, uncle Enaka."

present time:

Oh she could not have been more wrong about the oart of those missions seeming more interesting, in fact these priority missions were even worse than the ones she had been doing up til now, but in her mind the only thing remaining for her to look out for, was the higher paycheck she would be receiving at the end of this mission and the other one's which Enaka had passed to her via the council, showing yet again how sly he actually was.

If she had only thought about it more clearly and if she had only looked ta the papers before signing them, then she would not have been hauling with a truckload of boxes through the village, making sure not to stumble or drop any of the boxes as the directory did tell her that these boxes contained valuable equipment for the army division she was supposed to be supplying.

It was said that the army was doing their usual wargames, simulating actual combat at the best they could, to train young recruits and to sharpen and maintain their own training for the veterans.

Finally, after almost ten minutes, with her arms almost burning up because of the strain the weight of those boxes gave her, she had arrived at the designated patch of land, where an officer came up to her and relieved her from the weight, surprising her with the fact that he told her...the equipment she was carrying, were boxes with icecream...

"What, I've been hauling around with boxes of Icecream!?" Risu yelled slightly frustrated, but just couldn't help her eyes from sparkling when she could see the creamy freshness inside the boxes, nor deny herself the pleasure of it when the officer told her that she would be getting an icecream to.

So this was a boring mission, but at least she had gotten a good pay and an icecream to enjoy.
