With how much time she had enjoyed roaming around the outdoors, taking in all the sights, sounds, and smells that come with being immersed in nature, Kazumi had honestly neglected spending time within the village and mingling with the people who shared her home. She had spent so much time outside of the village walls, chasing animals through the underbrush with Tomomi, or jumping from tree to tree feeling the breeze in her hair on the way to explore some old ruins they had heard about while passing by strangers that, aside from her parents and her best friend and ninken Tomomi, she really didn't know anyone in the village all that well. Sure she had a couple of friends from the time in the academy, she even knew some of the Jōnin who were her her teachers too, but she really hadn't talked to any of them for an extended period of time since they all became genin. They would pass each other in the streets and exchange greetings, but it was only ever for a fleeting moment, as Kazumi was always rushing through town trying to get done what she needed to for that day to free up the rest of her time for exploring.
This was the day that was going to change. Kazumi resolved that today she was going to spend her time within the city, walking through the market, eating at the restaurants, hoping against hope that maybe she'd make some friends along the way. "I'm going to be put in a squad soon and I don't know a single other ninja in this town!" she thought to herself, "I need to make some friends quick." This was her goal for today, make friends with at least one Leaf shinobi.
So off she went. It was a beautiful day outside, the kind that makes it seem like the world just took a break from anything evil. The sun was high in the sky with nary a cloud to block it, but yet, it's heat was not beating down on the people below. It was accompanied by a cool breeze out of the north, which caused the day to be a perfect balance of warm and cool. The village was a bustle with all manner of people and activities. On days such as this it was no surprise everyone wanted to be outside as much as they could to enjoy it. Everywhere you looked there were adults buying groceries from the market stands, children playing all manner of sports through the streets and alleys, even the academy was holding classes outside today. You could hear the instructors critiquing the students out in the training yard.
Tomomi yelped in excitement as she spied her favorite dish to share with Kazumi. She ran out in front of her partner and turned to give her a look that said "I'm hungry! Come on!" Kazumi just had to laugh and follow her. There wasn't much you could do when Tomomi spotted food. They ran a little ways together up to a little stand that was selling sweet rice cakes. Kazumi bought for small ones, two for each of them and together the walked over to a small table with a pink umbrella on it to provide some nice, if a little un-needed, shade. Kazumi sat down in one of the two chairs and placed the cakes on the table. Tomomi quickly claimed the other seat and placed her front paws on the table, ready to be served. Kazumi giggled again at the cute little pup as she slid her portion of the meal over to her. They both sat there for a while, eating their food and watching all the different people walk by, observing all the different activities happening in such a small area. She'd make friends with one of these people, she was sure of it.
