Mission:

Sasijimi was out and about, making his way slowly but surely towards the Kazekage's tower. He had been assigned to a mission to get a cat off of the tower for some client that had let it off of its leash and subsequently chased it up the tower. Some people should just not be allowed pets. He wore his mesh shinobi shirt, black tights, and black sandals today, leaving his hitai-ate belt as well as his weapons at home. He didn't really need them for such a simple mission and it honestly had begun to wear him down a lot toting those things around with him all the time. It was nice to take a breather. He quietly put his hair into the usual ponytail, leaving his bangs out a bit to flow freely on either side of his face, framing it perfect with the long black locks. The man sighed as he neared the tower, looking up at what he could only hope wouldn't be too much of a climb for him.

Sure, he could use jutsu to reach the top, or he could climb it normally but that didn't change that he hated these types of missions. He wasn't going to grow powerful rescuing cats from high places, but he supposed that everyone, even the most powerful ninja, had to start somewhere. And with that he enabled chakra into the soles of his sandals, activating the supernatural walking practice jutsu. After a moment he placed his right foot to the side of the tower, bringing his other foot up as well to have himself standing on the side of the tower, leaning back to be standing straight. Relatively speaking, of course, as he was horizontally inclined at this point. Sasijimi made his way up the tower at a leisurely pace, step by step. He was clearly in no hurry and by the time he reached the top and walked back down the client would be back to take her wretched fur ball home, hopefully to take better care of it. He shook his head at the thought of someone being careless enough to lose an animal so easily and then chase it up the largest building within the village hidden in the sand. It was pretty moronic if you had to ask Sasijimi. The fact that he had to get someone's pet back when he could be training just left a bad taste in his mouth and he was definitely not happy at this point. With a sigh, he quickened his stroll a bit so that he could end this mission quickly.

He eventually reached the top of the tower and walked slowly over to where the cat was laying in the sun, quietly napping upon the ground. He kneeled down, softly stroking the cat's back down to the tail and back up to the back of its head, scratching behind its ears. A soft purring ensued and having distracted the animal, he moved his arms and hands under the beast, gripping it and bringing the fluff ball to his chest. He sighed, continuing to stroke the small and furry animal, beginning the trek back down the tower to the bottom where hopefully the client would be waiting for him to bring her cat so she could pay him and go about her business. The angle at which he was walking down the tower made it a little difficult to hold and stroke the cat but it was nothing he couldn't manage. After a while he reached the bottom, handing the client her cat and watching her walk away with the poor fluff ball. He shook his head and headed to the kazekage's office to turn in the mission report.
