Spoiler:

Sakumo was just quietly chilling in a tall tree that towers over his home, call him strange but he sometimes like to take a nap in this particular tree. Out of all the trees in konoha, this one has to the best due to the height, the position and how it gives him a good view of everything from all angles. Plus he enjoy the wind, and somehow up here, he can just forget about the world and all it’s troubles.

“Yamamoto” echoed a voice, Sakumo opens one eye and lazily looks down to see a fellow genin. Casually he waves down at the boy. “Hi!” greeted the white haired boy, the other genin looks up with squited eyes, trying to ignore the blinding light of the sun. “We have a mission.” Replies the boy and then he push up his glasses. Sakumo immediately climbed down the tree halfway before jumping off to pouch on on the boy, the other boy yells and pushed Sakumo off “You’ve got to stop doing that!” scolded the boy, but Sakumo merely chuckled. “And you have got to dodge more.” teased Sakumo as he stood up and helped the other get back on his feet.

Sakumo is curious why the other boy, whose name is Daisuke, came to him with the very same mission he was assigned to.
Crossing his arms, Sakumo eyed the other “So this mission?” started the boy before he elaborated “What do you want with me?” Sora took a while to reply before answering “Find a lost shoe mission.” Sakumo stared at him for a moment “Really? A lost shoe? But that’s easy” but Sora’s steel glare says otherwise.

Sighing Sakumo reluctantly accepts, but he didn’t make it obvious that he rather sleep because despite what the mission is, he is a ninja. And this is mission, and he must complete it, no two ways about it. “I want us to work together, it’l be quicker that way.” Said Sora and Sakumo nodded in agreement “So how about this, you search the upper of Kumogakure and I will check out the lower areas.” said Sakumo, already hatching a plan on how to go about this. “And if the shoe still isn’t found, I’ll search the sewers and the roofs, you check out the market and shops because someone might have picked it up and try to flog it off.” Instructed Sakumo, one thing he is good at is planning but Sora probably didn’t think so. “Why?” questioned the other boy, Sakumo made a face before answering “Because if we each check out areas, it’ll be done quicker like you said, plus exploring is what I’m good at and you? Well you’re good at talking to people and you have keen eyes.” Explained the younger boy as he grins.
Sora stared at Sakumo with silence disdain before letting out a exhale of breath, surrendering to the younger boy’s plans. “Fine, I’ll check the markets you do whatever you have to do.” Said Sora, and with a short wave he was off.

Sakumo grins and waved back before dashing off as well, first he checked out the lower areas and dodged the amount of crowds and kept pestering people about a missing shoe but little no success came from it, mean while Sora was doing the same thing albeit less leg-work compare to Sakumo. Sora simply went around casually looking for the shoe and asking people about the shoe randomly.

Sakumo heard from young boys that they saw a gang of cats hurling off a shoe, so Sakumo followed the boys direction and noticed with his brown eyes a set of cat tracks. Before he knew it, he had crossed into the ginger cat’s territory.

Venturing into the underworld of Kumogakure proven to be harder than expected, Sakumo is aimed with nothing but torchlight as he searched the confusing passages of the sewages, trying to ignore and avoid the shady looking people that live down here. Although he does to some degree pity the people here, for many have fallen on hard times and have now taken to living down here in the dirt, but some of them at least a majority of them, live down here so they can hide from police and avoid getting caught for their crimes. He has heard a gang of thieves, a group of underage kids had taken to living down here in order to survive.

Sakumo wondered how different his life would be if he was born down here, and forced to live like this. Although he imagines such conditions would push people to rise above their social rank, and become something more than what they were born into.

To his surprise, a young lad came up to him and handed him the very shoe he put so much effort into looking for. Blinking, Sakumo reached out and with a smile took the shoe from the other, the young boy appears to be mute so Sakumo instead hugged him, ignoring the scent of dirt and bile emitting from the other. He grinned, and gave thanks left the sewages, now believing in Karma. Do good deeds, and good things will happen to you. He returned back to the surface and soon reunited the client and his shoe.
