Mission: Information Gathering - Rank B - Kaname and Paksennarion

[Kaname]

Mission: Information Gathering
Rank: B
Description: Rogue ninja have been spotted two days travel from here. You must go and observe them. They have been classified as highly dangerous, Jounin level ninja, so do not engage them no matter what. Find out why they are there and what their plans are and any other important information. If possible find out who they are and where they come from along with any useful information for the Bingo Book. They must not know that you are observing them. You have a week at most before you must return.
Mission parameters: Get close and observe the ninja. You cannot be found out at all costs. Return when you know what their purpose is.

Kaname walked towards the Village gates. This would be an interesting mission! She hadn't had a B rank for awhile, stuck teaching those brats at the academy. Kaname grinned to herself at the thought of her students. She missed the kids when she wasn't holding class. It was so fun to annoy them.

Sighing Kaname looked around, she really didn't want to do this mission alone. It would be hard to observe everything by herself if there were more than one ninja in this case. Kaname spotted a few Genin wandering the streets as she passed. Now Genin were fun to bother too, not as uppity as her Academy Students, but she could deal. She waited until she found a Genin that she wouldn't mind taking with her, she didn't want to bring along an idiot after all. After a little bit, Kaname spotted Kiza's student. She heard that the kid was a pretty good ninja, and it would be fun to annoy a student of Kiza's. Kaname grinned even more, maybe the kid would be so annoyed, she would complain to the Kazekage afterwards. That would be funny. With that in mind, Kaname stalked over to the Genin.

"Oi! Gaki, you're helping me on this mission, okay?" Kaname shook the mission scroll in the kid's face, smiling.

[Paksennarion]

Paks had been walking home after training, when she spotted a kunochi staring at her. She continued walking as if she hadn't noticed, subtly shifting herself so that she would easily be able to grab a kunai if she needed to.

After a minute the kunochi waded through the crowd towards her. Paks paused in mid-step and turned to face her. She spotted a Suna hitai-ate on her arm, and relaxed her guard slightly. When they kunochi began waving a mission scroll in her face and talking about Paks going on a mission with her, Paks was intruiged. She had gone on a mission with someone only twice before, and judging by the scroll, this one was a B rank mission. She had never gone on a mission so highly ranked.

Paks nodded at the woman, who was beginning to scare her with her perpetual grin and by the fact that she was clothed in a garish green color that burned the eyes.

"Okay. May I read the mission debreifing?"

The kunochi tossed her the scroll, and Paks scanned it quickly. She looked up at the kunochi, "I am Paksennarion. I should know your name before we leave."

[Kaname]

This gaki was so weird! She didn't seem nervous at all, which made Kaname grin even wider. That meant that it would be so much more fun making her crack.

"Yeah, yeah. I'm Kaname, you can call me Kaname-sama or Kaname-hime or something like that!" She smirked down at the kid and then walked off, not looking back to see if she was following. They needed to leave like two minutes ago if they were going to get to the missing nin in time.

Kaname showed the correct papers to the guards at the gate and they were let out. She turned to look at the kid, who was being silent. Well, two days travel was a long time. If the gaki wasn't going to talk, she sure could.

So she did. For several hours. As they ran towards the location depicted in the mission scroll. Somehow, Kaname guessed that it was divine intervention or something, the kid remained silent as she talked about the most boring or inane things she could think of. Most kids would have gotten irritated and yelled by now.

She finally stopped talked after they got close to their location. Kaname stopped grinning, and got serious. This mission was going to be hard. At all costs she couldn't let them be noticed, because Jounin level missing nin against one Jounin and a Genin were not good odds. And Kaname was not about to let some gaki's death be on her conscious, not when she hadn't even made the kid crack yet.

Kaname used some hand signs to signal the kid to be quiet and stay behind her, as she quietly edged forward, towards the missing nin's camp. Luckily there were enough trees around for them to hide and observe.

Usagi Kinzo carefully bent down and walked away from his large tent, while rubbing his forehead protector. He was a very muscular man indeed and there were many who feared him back in his old village. He rubbed his forehead protector again with a battle weary hand. There was a scratch across it. He sighed while gazing towards the sun before grabbing a cigarette from his pocket and lighting it.

"Pssh, it is getting dark, we should be moving soon," he said softly while in front of a large tent, "We wouldn't want to be caught by that man..."

His companion quickly walked out, a red faced man who resembled a water water melon in terms of his physique. The man gave a large burp before replying,

"Usagi, you shouldn't be such a spoil sport, I just ate dinner! I can't travel on a full stomach!" laughed the large man, "Besides we've already walked many miles today!"

A puff of smoke came out of Usagi's cigarette as he arched his eyebrown in disapproval. He coughed slightly.

"Fool, do you want us to be murdered by that man! He's Akatsuki! You've seen what happened to Gozuka and Nobunchi," replied Usagi fiercely, "We also need some supplies, maybe we should rob a nearby village?"

The fat man burst out laughing, his red face growing redder than ever as he waved his arms about. Gozuka! Nobunchi! Both of them were fools who were too thin...

"Akatsuki?! Akatsuki!? Haha, I laugh at the name Akatsuki. I am Gorufu, the great devourer and the legendary fat man!" he shouted and laughed louder and louder.

"Shut up will you? Your being too loud...remember we're not that far away from konoha...there could be people watching us," said Usagi gently, "We should pack up the tent and our bags. Then we'll make our way toward some farms and villages to steal their food."

Suddenly he jerked his head towards a clump of trees. He had sensed something, possibly a bird or fox. Usagi dismissed those thoughts before throwing a bag over towards Gorufu who failed to catch it and fell down.

[Paksennarion]

Paks followed Kaname, and watched the two ninja. She tried to catch a glimpse of the insignia on their forehead protectors, noting the slashes.

Paks tried to commit to memory their names, and the name of the other two that were supposively dead. They were running from Akatsuki? Why? If they were planning on attacking nearby towns they would need to get back to Suna and inform the Kage, although by then it would be too late. Paks wondered at the protocol in situations like this. Did it not matter so long as they weren't attacking people allied with Suna? She glanced at Kaname, not sure what they were supposed to do.

When Usagi glanced at their hiding place Paks froze, she stopped breathing and tried to still her heart beat along with her chakra signature. They were too conspicious in their current area. As soon as he looked away Paks quikly preformed henge to blend in with some of the bushes near the trunk of the tree.

Paks didn't want to do something that would endanger the mission and since she didn't know the protocol for something like this she would stay put and wait for a sign from Kaname.

Usagi sighed as Gorufu tried to get himself back up from falling.
"Come on, we need to hurry up and you could use the excercise." Usagi said almost laughing, while Gorufu grunted angrily.
"I'm not really that fat..." Gorufu replied looking at his stomach.
"Forget about it, let's just get out of here already." Usagi said starting towards Gorufu.
After helping him stand back up they both starting walking.
"So, when we get to Konaha we will just kill off two people and Henge into them. Then we will enter the village as them and depending on who the people are, we will find out a way to get to the Hokage and kill him. This will defiantely be fun." Usagi chuckled looking around him, to make sure nobody was listening in on the conversation.

[Kaname]

Kaname watched the enemy closely. They seemed to be heading towards Konohagakure. She needed to get herself and Paks out of their soon. Otherwise any and all of their information wouldn't matter by the time they got back to Suna.

Kaname slowly shifted, glancing down at Paks only to see that she had Henged to blend in to their hiding place. Kaname grinned slightly, well at least she hadn't picked a totally incompetent Genin to come with her. She waited until the ninja who seemed the most aware out of the two calmed down before carefully signing to the Gaki that they would retreat.

Usagi stopped looking around as Gorufu tripped and rolled on the ground. Usagi sighed, while thinking in his head, 'Can this guy do anything besides fall?'
He got distracted and bent over to pick him up once more.

[Paksennarion]

Paks watched as the two missing nin talked and then started walking off. The large one seemed almost comical, how had he become a ninja to begin with? Paks slowly let her guard down, they hadn't been spotted yet and it was unlikely that ninja such as these would notice them now.

She saw Kaname signing to her and nodded slowly, straightening out and getting ready to step backwards and behing the tree. Paks was watching the two ninja intently and she failed to check the ground behind her, unluckily she stepped on a twig, which due to the arid climate was very dry and snapped with an audible sound. She froze, eyes wide as she stared at the two ninja.
