Amaterasu stood at the gates to Kumogakure, her arms crossed over her chest. Ares was in full form, laying on the ground by Amaterasu's feet, resting his head on his hooves has he dozed. Both of them still weren't used to early morning missions such as this. Eleven years on the road had made them both enjoy sleeping, so to say that even Amaterasu was having hard time not dozing off was an understatement. Shaking her head, she let out a heavy sigh, rubbing her eyes. "Early morning missions are seriously the scourge of the Earth," she muttered, stretching upward and then rolling her shoulders back. She was waiting for not only her partner in this mission, but also the man they were supposed to be escorting. It was a very simple mission. Escort a businessman to his meeting, and possibly take out some rogue ninja who might be targeting him. With jobs like this, you could almost guarantee that there was someone out there looking for blood. This mission would probably be no different, however, being a medical ninja, they served more of a chance again any enemy. That's what happened when you put a combat medic on the field, after all. They knew every weak spot, pressure point, and the position and location of every vital organ. This would be an easy mission... hopefully. Staring down the road into the center of the village, Amaterasu kept watch for either her charge or her partner. She was sure that she'd met her partner at some point, as his name was vaguely familiar, but she really couldn't put her finger on when and where they would have met. She also could have been imagining things, which wasn't abnormal for the Raikage's little sister. Spotting someone on the horizon, Amaterasu was absolutely sure that it was her partner. Lifting one arm, she waved it in the hair, showing that she was waiting for him. With him on the way, that only left the businessman. Knowing those stuffy men, they were always late to things, but Amaterasu wouldn't let him be late to his meeting, even if the man had to ride on Ares's back. Also spotting the figure on the horizon, Ares lifted his head, watching with mild interest. Letting out a great yawn, he pushed himself to his feet and stretched, starting to trot around Amaterasu in circles to stretch out his muscles. He chanted a small song as he did, making Amaterasu giggle and pat his back as he passed around her. "We'll get going soon, I'm sure. Then we'll be really awake, huh, Ares?" she asked with a chuckle. "The ram goes round and round~ Mhm, right~" Ares said with a shake of his body. "The ram goes round and round~" |
