D-Rank missions were typically boring. They consisted of what were typical very mundane instances of manual labor and odd jobs. Missions to find a wealthy woman's lost cat were not that uncommon. Volunteering as an assistant at the academy wasn't either. Chigetsu had expected work of a bit more dignified caliber after finally finishing his training in the academy, but what he got instead were this strange assortment of inconsequential missions. None of them felt like they actually had any real significance. He was sure that helping find those lost cats really made that woman happy, but was that really the job of a ninja? He had expected missions that felt a bit more important. Missions that felt more like they were for ninjas. There were no complaints from Chigetsu though. He needed to take these missions just for their meager payment so he could afford rent. D-Rank missions didn't pay very well, but with his excessively cheap lifestyle he would only have to do a few each week to get by. His belly was full and he had a warm bed to sleep in, so could Chigetsu really complain?
Things were different now though. This mission had a very different aura about it. It was still just a D-Rank mission. It wasn't as if the pay was significantly better than usual either. The entire thing was ranked the same with a "Find a Missing Cat" mission, so how important could it be? The fact that Chigetsu was currently camping out in a bush in the dead middle of the night might point towards an answer to that question. With the moonlight being his only illumination, the white-haired boy would glare down towards the mission directive scrolls he had been entrusted with. His composure was completely different from what he would have on any other D-Rank mission. There was a much heavier sense of tension. The text of the scroll would barely be visible to him with his limited amount of light. He would look up, moving in the bush as silently as he could to not cause any unnecessary noise. A quick scan around determined that nobody seemed to have noticed him. With his concealed status confirmed, Chigetsu would turn back to the scroll.
D-Rank Mission: "Convert a Troubled Ninja"
The contents of the scroll would read over one last time. Chigetsu had nearly memorized them at this point. It was obvious just from reading the mission statement of how important this mission was. Compared to teaching at the academy or collecting raw resources, this had a feeling of having actual significance. This was important. He was making a big difference in somebody's life and maybe doing something that had a good deal of importance to the village of Kirigakure itself. Looking back up from his position in the bush he would see his target. Kiya Satosha. The male would be awkwardly staring out into the ocean. If there was a method in which they were looking to abandon the village it would probably be something like this. The external walls would be too difficult to sneak through to leave. Swimming a short distance around them would be the only option for somebody looking to get out.
With Kiya silent under the moonlight, Chigetsu would steel his nerves. He would slowly stand up from his position from the bushes, and then he would approach.

D-Rank Mission: "Convert a Troubled Ninja"
- Satoha, Kiya has been discovered to have active plans to desert Kirigakre no Sato. The details and fully extent of these plans are currently unknown. Satoha, Kiya's desires to abandon the village were discovered after reports from his sister, Satoha, Hanako. She had described Satoha, Kiya's motivations for wanting to desert being their lack of morale and doubt in their own abilities. Satoha, Kiya status as a recent academy graduate and new genin would result in very little threat to Kirigakure no Sato from their desertion; their low rank and status as a clanless individual would result in very little loss or vulnerability as a result of their absence. The precedent that would be set by young ninja being able to freely desert would bring shame to Kirigakure no Sato.
Without using excessive force or threat of bodily harm, convince Satoha, Kiya to remain within Kirigakure no Sato. After the reaffirmation of their loyalty, they will put under Class-E probation in case of future incidents.
