Mission:

Syekren was on his way to the Daimyo's palace, his peach-skin glinting a bit with the Kaze no Kuni's beautiful sunlight. He was wearing only his black netted shinobi shirt with the Uchiha's clan symbol stitched into the back, his pants beign the normal shinobi tights he was accustomed to. While he wore his normal black shinobi tabi and sandals, completing the overall 'black' look. It was a beautiful day and his green hued eyes stared at the sky for a moment as he walked, listening to the sounds of a busy village. All the hustling and bustling around, it made him feel as thought people barely noticed the problems going on in this world. He shrugged a bit, denoting this and blinked to allow his eyes to refresh with their liquid from his tear ducts, making his green contacts a bit more comfortable. He had almost forgotten he was wearing them, mainly to hide his use of the sharingan. It didn't matter though, anyone who looked at the back of his shirt could tell he was an Uchiha.

His home was on the way to his destination so he stopped there first, walking inside the hut-like building to head straight to his bedroom. He pushed open the door, grabbing his sunagakure no sato tan coat from the bedside table, slipping into it.  As well as that, he grabbed his Sunagakure no Sato headband, walking back out of his home with that in his hand, closing the door behind him. He must look respectable if he were to convince the Daimyo to lend them one of his best contractors for the job of constructing the building in the village. Syekren continued to walk for a while, pulling his headband onto his forehead, tying the knot of it on the back of his head, keeping the hitai-ate in place. His bangs fell into his face every so often but he jerked his head slightly to flip them out of his eyes.

He arrived shortly after at the Daimyo's palace, and waited at the doors for the guards to allow him entry. They waved him in and he went forward into the foyer to meet the most obese man he had ever seen. The man had to be an easy four hundred pounds, with stretched ear lobes and a thick matted black beard with a grey stripe down the middle. The man was clothed in a long and loose kimono(thank god) and sat upon an elegantly crafted chair, waiting for Syekren it seemed. Syekren stepped in front of him, dropping onto one knee, putting his fist to the ground, and bowing his head. It was a sign of great respect, one he hoped would help him with what he needed to ask of the very large man.

"Lord Daimyo, I come with a request from the Kazekage. She requires one of your contractors for a building in the village, and promises her favor if you comply with our request." The daimyo stroked his beard quietly, looking over at a small man, about Syekren's height and wait, with thick spectacle glasses on and motioned him over. "I can give you Nagatsuki. But I must warn you, for the past few weeks I have been quelling and uprising of rogue ninja after my palace and her fortunes. The leader of this group is expecting me to send out Nagatsuki soon, as he is my top contractor. You may have Nagatsuki for your kage's project if you can kill the leader of this group when he will no doubt attempt to kill my contractor on the way back into the village. Do we have a bargain?" Standing the uchiha smiled, and nodded. "Good. Now go! And quell  their hopes of ever becoming more than what they are: scum!"

With that Syekren and the contractor left the Daimyo's palace, walking on their way back towards the village. The contractor seemed very worried about his life, so much in fact he had fancied to grab a suit of samurai-style armor, putting it on and insisting upon it before they left. Syekren turned to the contractor as they walked, smiling a bit to reassure him. "Don't worry so much man. I'll protect you regardless of what happens. Just the other day I had to kill seven ninja myself, only two of them being genin. So just relax and enjoy our journey, we'll get there without a hitch." It was true, syekren had been tasked with a mission requiring he kill seven ninja, three of which had sought to betray the sunagakure no sato to the Amegakure. But with his quick thinking and timing, he had quelled this thought and taken the stolen scrolls back to the Kage's waiting hands. He didn't expect too much trouble from this mission either, it all seemed rather too easy.

They arrived at the first checkpoint, conferring with the guard what they were doing and were soon on their way once more. They hadn't made it more than three yards before two chuunin-level rogue ninja jumped out of hiding places in the sand around them, trying to attack the contractor.The first ninja had gauntlets with razor-sharp claws upon them, slashing towards Nagatsuki. With his immense speed, Syekren was by the contractor's side immediately, catching the clawed hand by the wrist. He used his target's own momentum to pull and slam him onto the ground, forcing the claws into his throat. Looking up at the second rogue ninja, he saw handseals being stringed together in a rush. Not wasting any time, Syekren pulled the gauntlet out of the dead man's throat and off of his hand, throwing with all his might to the other ninja. Two claws, one to each, pierced into the eyes of the ninja, going into his brain. He fell forward, stabbing them further into his brain and died.

When the two were dealt with, they were on their way once more, making it to the second checkpoint without too much trouble. Save for the contractor wanting to turn around and go back to the safety of the Daimyo's palace. With Syekren's urging he continued the journey though and they stopped at the second checkpoint to rest a bit. The guard told them there was more guards at the last checkpoint in the village and that there should not be too much more trouble on the road. Thanking the man, they continued their journey, with the contractor flinching at every shadow they came across. How disappointing this man was so far.

They were nearing the village and were almost home free before Syekren sighed, hearing the sand shift. So there were four more enemies lying in wait, by the look of the moving dunes. He held a hand up, instructing the contractor to stop, stepping forward and triggering a wire trap he had not seen. Once he hit the wire, there was a great crash and the sand beneath his feet sunk in, showing a great pit with multiple spikes at the bottom of it, the Uchiha falling down, grumbling to himself. Concentrating chakra into his feet, he pushed them against the wall as he fell, stopping his descent, him having leaned back from the momentum. A spike was only a few inches from him being impaled upon it and he thanked his own dumb luck. Hearing screams from above, he ran up the wall, jumping high into the air out of the hole in time to see three chunin level rogue ninja running towards the contractor with swords. The leader himself was looking in the hole as Syekren came out, being a special jounin level rogue ninja.

Upon landing on the ground, he moved his body to the three attackers, catching two swinging swords at the wrists, one more he stopped by kicking his leg out, his foot hitting the hilt of the middle's man's blade stopping it dead. Without wasting too much more time, he brought his leg back, then up again to kick the bottom of the sword to have it fly up into the air, rotating to fall back, point down. With the two ninja he held struggling, he quickly pulled them to himself, slamming them together so they dropped their own blades in the sand, and kicking their legs from under them. After which as they laid on each other he jumped into the air above the falling sword, pushing his foot down on it as he fell to increase it's velocity, impaling through the rogue ninja on the ground, killing both of them.

He pushed off of the sword, bringing his knees to his chest and leaning back. He kicked both feet into the chest of the rogue ninja, pushing him to fall backwards into the pit of spikes, being impaled below and killed instantly. With that done, he was on his back and kicked up, landing upon his feet with a keep up, looking to the leader and smirking. Without waiting for a reaction, he leaped over the pit, tackling the leader to the ground. The man had no idea what was going on as Syekren pummeled his face into the dirt with many quick strikes of his fists. After a minute of this, he stood, pulling the leader up by his coat, and threw him into the pit with his lackey, watching a spike impale through his back and out his stomach. Pathetic worms.

Soon they were back on their way to the village, going there without any problems to be heard of. The contractor Nagatsuki was astounded at the amazing strength of his escort and admitted proudly that he would be honored to work for a village with such aspiring ninja. Upon reaching the last checkpoint just inside the village gates, he turned the cargo over to a few other ninja, watching them escort him to the work site. Syekren himself went to the kage's manse to turn in his mission and rest.
