Nakazo Ashitaka
D-rank
The other day Nakazo had been assigned to handle a problem within his own neighborhood in the Sand Dune Slums. He had lived here his whole life, and for that reason alone he was given this mission. The Genin was asked to take a partner with him for this task, in case of extra trouble. He didn't have many friends or allies that he could trust, but he instantly thought of Chiaki when given the opportunity to pick someone. The last time he saw Chiaki they were being carried off to the hospital with a bloody gash over his eye as a result of their sparring match. He hoped he would be forgiven for that, and that Chiaki wouldn't mind being Nakazo's recommendation for this mission. The Ashitaka wanted him along on this mission as a way of apology, and also because he knew he was skilled and would rather have those strange summoning powers on his side than be against them. Nakazo double checked his ninja pouch to ensure his kunai and three shurikens were still there. He tied his forehead protector tight and walked out the door of his house into the cool crisp night of Sunagakure. It was almost midnight, and the ninja hurried to make sure he wasn't late for his rendezvous.
The meeting place was a theater near the outskirts of the Slums. The building had seen better days, but somehow the place was still in operation. Nakazo leaned against the stone wall while he awaited Chiaki's arrival. A Jounin would have delivered the mission details to Chiaki, and he hoped they got them in time. The mission was rather simple. There were a few gangsters causing trouble in the Slums, and their hideout was recently discovered: a ruined hospital in the center of the urban sprawl. The Slums were littered with old ruins and half standing buildings, and they were just as common as normal houses in the rundown neighborhood. The two Genin would need to get into the hospital and then teach them a lesson, rough them up and then bring them to the village jail. If necessary and for their own survival they could kill the gangsters, but it would be considered a last resort. Nakazo didn't take the act of killing another lightly, and resolved to complete this task with as little bloodshed as possible, though he had no idea how Chiaki felt about such things. It's midnight now, he thought, the moon above the only thing illuminating the outside of the theater. He looked around for any sign of Chiaki and remained alert and guarded as he awaited his partner's arrival.

(Just for future reference because I'm not sure on Chiaki's gender, how should I refer to your character going forward? I've called Chiaki a he a couple times in my post above and just want to make sure I'm getting it right. It's hard to write not knowing a character's gender lol. I know my character wouldn't know exactly, but just for my own sake what would you prefer I write?)
