1 D-Rank Mission: Lost Pet Lizard Mon Jul 13, 2015 2:04 pm
Tsugumichi
D-rank
The mission dossier was crisp, as if freshly printed off the press with a sense of urgency and high alert, but of course that would prove not to be the case. He was a genin, and an unproven one at that, it would be a long shot to open its contents and reveal that the fate of the village rested solely in his inexperienced hands. His icy blue irises took in the green and red trimmed scroll with anxious emotion as his adolescents finger tips ran across it’s near slippery smooth textures. There was of course a little bit of drama in his mind with regards to this monumental event, so much so that he had imagined exotic drum crescendos in his mind as he peeled back the tab and began unraveling its contents. He had originally thought that missions were hand given by the Kazekage, which was sometimes true, but today he had learned that walking into the mission center with a simple request for duty sufficed just as much.
“A lost lizard? Seriously…” The contents of his task were disappointing to say the least as he gazed upon the basic kanji with an irking eyebrow. He was under no false illusions that D-Rank missions were less than glamorous and sometimes a drag, but he had in mind things that were a bit more exciting. Taking down bandits, fighting rabid animals running loose in the village, espionage, hot pursuits, destroying an enemy base camp, any of those things. But as he had ran through his realm of expected scenarios he realized his expectations were much more mislead than he had originally assumed. It seemed that the bulk of his rookie ninja career would be fated with rescuing cats, cleaning hot springs, and sweeping the dust from around the gates.
With a heavy sigh of realization the young genin began to read the mission dossier further, looking for any details that might give him an area to begin his search and what this lizard might actually look like. According to the scroll, the pet lizards name was Ryu, and was predominantly black with with lighting like streaks recurring variously across its body. Ryu was also described as roughly a foot long and was last seen evading the sun inside the Medicinal Greenhouse among several of it’s protected plants. Ryu’s owner, Yukimi, was also said to be an employee at the greenhouse, explaining that Ryu had escaped his confines the other day and had yet to be located but was certain he could not have fled without being seen. The consensus seemed to be that Ryu was hiding, and was doing his best to keep from returning to captivity within his tank.
“Fine, to the greenhouse I guess…”
