• Boredom before the storm (with Yuudai Uchiha)
  

The clan ritual is underway and soon Akimoto will receive his living sword. Having failed almost every mission so far (thanks to being rash and quick to anger), the boy's been rotting in the Siren's Den, slowly drinking his boredom into oblivion...

• Patrol [D-Rank Mission]
  

The young member of the Hoshigaki clan has been sent on a mission after quite the wait - to patrol the village. This may be his long-awaited chance to finally do things as prescribed, and the task is quite simple too - he should register some issues, leaving the rest to the authorities. No place for improvisation, right?

• Flower Delivery [D-Rank Mission]
  

The ambiguous success of his last mission may be the reason for this sudden change of village priorities. Having a ridiculous errand to run, Akimoto feels underestimated, yet he knows that a shinobi's gotta do what a shinobi's gotta do...even if there is a disturbing plot twist at the end of the line.

• A friend
  

The ritual is finally complete and Akimoto's about to meet a close friend with whom he'll share his struggles from now on. Oh, there's also an ANBU.
