Shadow Walked towards the Hokage Office with a huge smile on his face. His team was doing fine and they seem to have gotten along pretty well. But now he had to leave them for a mission no doubt seeing that Hokage never did call him over for tea or something. Shadow tapped his pole to the ground as he walked toward to office door his thoughts wonder what mission was he going to get or who we was working with. It really didn't matter as long as he can get the mission done and not mess up due to his lack of vision
Shadow also wonder if what his/her abilities were and if his would help or hinder Him/her. Shadow Made it to the the door and opened it to find to Hokage and A Women stand there. His vision allowed him to see the person but he wasn't able to tell it was a girl until we smelled her. It wasn't a bad smell but his experience though him that men and women smelled different. Shadow then spoke "you wanted to see me sir".

It had been a while since Neena had worked with anyone. Normally she was just sent off on her own to gather information or deliver something important. It wasn’t uncommon for her to be sent off on far away missions that would keep her gone for days or even weeks at a time. Although she loved feeling useful, she hated long missions. The time she had spent at home recently was a well deserved break. Now it was time to get back to it and spread the pride of Konoha the best way she knew how; with a kick ass mission.
She had arrived early, mostly do to her enthusiasm, but partially because of her lack of patience. The redhead was filled with energy. It felt like she was ready to face any obstacle, any test. After being told she would be working with someone new, someone slightly older. Neena was a little disappointed that she wasn’t being sent out with subordinates. One of her goals was to have a team of her own, a small group of bright eyed young ninja who looked up to her as if she was someone, people that she could possibly leave an impression on.
It had been a long enough wait, and a hard reminder why one should show up on time instead of early. For a little while she sat in a chair in the corner. That got boring, and she walked around for a bit. Then when she got bored of that she started humming random tunes. Neena wasn’t worried about getting on anyone’s nerves, though this kind of behavior often did.
“Oh, my, gosh. How much longer do I got to wait?”
The door opened behind her, and the redhead turned on her heel. The guy she was waiting for, or at least she hoped so, had arrived. So this was the person she was teaming up with. Another guy that made her feel short. Grinning, Neena put her hands on her hips. He might not have been super early or anything, but he was here and now they could get the show moving.
“Yes! Now we can start. So, whatcha got for us?”

Hiruzen Sarutobi, known far and wide by titles such as "The Professor" or "The God of Shinobi" turned to the two ninja that had entered his office. The elderly man had been working on a large canvas of paper and was in the midst of completing a elegant character. His eyes looked briefly confused, having lost time in his work of art, before a flash of recognition crossed his eyes.
"Ah, yes..." He carefully brought his brush away from his work, not to make any careless errors and set it aside. Getting up, he briefly grumbled as his legs shook beneath him. With how old and frail he seemed many who had never seen him in battle would have wondered if the tales were true. However, a sure step carried the man to his desk where he produced two slips of paper. Keeping the meeting brief he started talking.
"A bandit camp was spotted in the surrounding forest. Not close enough to be a threat, but enough to give worry. We're sending the two of you there to 'scare' them off if necessary. A jounin level rogue ninja is believed to be leading them. He or she is the only one with proper training as a shinobi, but be careful nonetheless." The old man was wise and gentle. Yet the ninja before him should have had no trouble catching the steel in his voice. With how sharp he had said 'scare' one would never miss the meaning to kill the bandits should they be any form of thread to the locals.
Having finished the man quickly dismissed them and returned to his work in order to relish in one of the rare peaceful moments during his job.

Shadow bowed as he left the building with a smile. He was very happy to have a mission after all he really haven't done much since he had students.So having mission after so long was appreciated, plus it gave him time to figure out how to handle his students when his team when they went out for a mission.Shadow then thought of the mission itself thinking of how to Scare off the bandits. He then looked at his partner and figure if he was going to work with her he might as well get to know her.
"Hi I'm Shadow Goon-Ju, A Wind and Lightning user with a special Bloodline" He said as he continue walking."My clan are born with powers of our animal spirit" He said ." Mine happens to give to powers of a bat but I'm also blind" He finished motioning towards his pole.Shadow smiled as he gave out his info after all the only way to work with someone was to give them both their strength and weakness.

Neena waited for the old man to finish talking. It sounded like a pretty straight forward mission, and was close enough to home she might could make it back by dinner if she hurried. Scaring people was something she honestly enjoyed, although she hated to admit it because she kinda liked most people. However, since it was bandits, this was a perfect time to go overboard showing off. Maybe her mission partner would tell the Hokage how awesome she was and recommend she be given a team. Yes, that was the perfect plan.
“Heck yes! This mission is going to be great! Thanks, old man, we won‘t let ya down.”
She followed the guy she was to be working with, exiting the building right behind him. He seemed to be a proper kind of guy, much like her father. Those types annoyed her, but it wasn’t too bad. At least those kind of people were normally respectful enough to not take her for granted. The kunoichi listened as he spoke. It seemed as if he was trying to learn something about her. A smart move for strangers working on the same team.
“Everyone calls me Neena, old name from childhood that I find easier to use than my actual name. I’m a tijutsu and fire ninjutsu user, but on the books I’m all about kenjutsu. The only cool thing about my blood line is the bright red hair and purple eyes. I’m scared to death of spiders, can’t move an inch when I see one. Let’s hope all the guys we fight are ugly because if there’s a single pretty boy in the bunch, he’s all yours. I dunno what it is about attractive guys, but they make me all weak and crap. It sucks.”
It was true, every word of it. If this wasn’t a Konoha ninja, she wouldn’t have told him about the spiders. However, he awkwardness around men was usually pretty obvious. In fact, she was known for not dating and some people had at one time spread a rumor that she wasn’t into men. Anyone could see that she wasn’t even looking her mission partner in the face. Her eyes were focused on his chest or weapon when she looked at him, which was almost never. Her short statue was helpful here, all she had to do was not look up at him.
The redhead whistled. “Bats are pretty damn cool, wish I had some kind of animal affinity. Something that flies would be… wait. Did you just say that you’re blind? Tell me I heard that wrong.”
Certainly he had said he was ‘fine’ or ‘kind’. Could anyone ever make it as a blind ninja? If so, why was she being sent out with him? If she had not misheard him, surely this was some kind of test to see if she was capable of protecting her comrades on a mission.

Shadow listened has she spoke and smiled as she seem to shocked at the fact that he was blind. With a slight chuckle Shadow said"It's the side effect of having a bat as your Animal Spirit.""We have all our animal's strength and weakness""\ he said with an smile."Hell I know a cousin with a turtle as an animal that makes him naturally slower then most people" he laughed "though I would say, what I lack in sight i make up in hearing" he said looking towards the sun. "You see my bat like hearing creates images of my surroundings,The more sound the better i see but at the same time if it's too load it hurts me" he said.
"Like now i can see the buildings and some of it occupants and you but i can't tell there gender unless I'm really close" Shadow now Turing to Neena. " So now what can you do" He said with an curious look

The red haired ninja was confused at this point. It was super cool that there was a blood line that took on the power of their animal spirit, but it wasn’t cool that someone was blind. She wasn’t that unhappy about having such a lame blood line trait as a simple physical feature, anymore. In fact, she was grateful it wasn’t something that took away one of her senses. For a moment, she reflected on his ability to ‘see’ sound.
“I believe that’s called sonar, or something like that. I didn’t pay attention in some of my classes at academy. Hey, at least you got some sight. I’ll have to remember your sound sensitivity and I’ll try not to be so loud. I‘m curious to see how you fight.”
When he asked what Neena could do she frowned and looked down. The curiosity in his voice was clear enough that she didn’t need to see his face. “Well, like I said, tijutsu, fire ninjutsu, and kenjutsu. I hit, kick, burn and shank people. It’s nothing special like an animal affinity or anything. Honestly, there’s something I’ve been working on but haven’t quite perfected it. A jutsu that combines taijutsu and my fire ninjutsu. Well, now that I think about it, there is something cool I can do. I can set my sword on fire with my chakra; but that’s a new skill that still needs practice.”
Neena kicked a rock and linked her hands behind her back. Her mission partner’s special circumstances required thought, and might require a bit of work around in how she did things. He could see with sound and not his eyes. The fact he could see the inhabitants of a building was a remarkable skill in itself. She would have had to find a window or something if not for him. He would hopefully be able to hear how many bandits were in the camp. Then they would run them out, set it on fire, and head home. Well, that’s if things went well. They probably wouldn’t, but that’s what being a ninja was for.

Shadow,listened as she spoke and was interested in the move she was trying to perfect. It wasn't rare to see a Jonin trying to learn new moves but, hearing about one trying to was always good to hear."So,any Idea on how to get rid of our bandits" Shadow Said with smile.
He was very curious on how to scare off bandit that may have been lead by a Jonin level ninja after all the leader was trained and likely forced the bandit to hold there ground because of his skill.His second." Personally I thinks Blitz creed tactic might working tactic might work because i can summon a small army of bat to mess with them" Shadow said as his mind Played out the events.HE wasn't sure if that might work after all bats might scare off Kids but these guys were grown men and that might only anger them more then scare them.

He asked her for ideas on how to get rid of them. If it was up to Neena, she would just set everything on fire and be done with it. However, the fire wouldn’t last if they really had a talented ninja leading them. Why would a ninja leave their village and live as a bandit anyway? Did they not have any pride? She wanted to get her hands on this ninja bandit and teach them what it meant to have pride in something.
Shadows suggestion at summoning bats to mess with people almost made the red head laugh. It wouldn’t work as a way to scare them out unless they all seemed to have the same fear of bats, which was highly unlikely. Neena tapped the side of her cheek with a slender finger.
“Well, I think that to form a good plan, we need a good guess as to how many they have in that camp. After that, we can decide. As much as I want to just torch the place, a high ranking ninja with the right skill set could counter that easily. Save the bats, we might need em for something. They would probably work well to round up stragglers.”
The last thing that the kunzite wanted was to run straight in, fire blazing. They needed a plan. If there were not many of them, they could always round them up one by one and make them watch until their camp burned to the ground. However, that ninja would be a problem. If they could pick off the bandits, they could take out the ninja without too much problem. After all, Neena knew that her pride in Konoha would give her the strength they needed to win such a fight.
“How would you feel about tricking these guys into thinking you wanna join up? I think it might be worth a shot if you’re up to it. You get inside, signal me for how many are there, and I can pick them off from outside while you pick them off from inside. We could work our way to the strong guy, kick his butt, and send the others home crying to their mothers.”

Shadow thought about the plan it was legit after all having a trick play like that would be the best plan.Shadow only concern was how to convince a possible Jonin level ninja to fall for it.Shadow though about it until he finally figured it out." That might work but i don't think i can pull it off due to my lack of viso-" Shadow Stopped as he realized that it he something. "Never mind just thought about it, what if we set them up after all whats more easy to rob then a blind man an old blind man at that" Shadow Said with a grin.
The duo had mad it to the village gate and was already heading out into the road leading out towards the forest.He was thinking about work in that plan after all no one would expect and ambush by a man that's really blind."What do you think about that" He said.

A smirk seemed to have permanently fixed itself to Neena’s face. She nodded as Shadow’s brain seemed to be working full steam. This was the perfect set up for them. This whole mission looked to be a bit too easy, which made her worry even more about the leader of the bandits. The easier things sound going in, the tougher they usually were coming out.
“I’ll be waiting for them to ambush you. When they do, I’ll swoop in and help you clean up.” Neena looked around, there were a few trees along the pathway that would make perfect hiding places, and a nice escape route. “This sounds like the perfect plan, but I see possibility to fail hard if we’re not careful. We don’t know shite about their leader and this worries me. Also, I worry about the threshold for your sound tolerance. As for my problems, they‘re bandits so I don‘t think we‘ll have to worry, unless they can summon spiders.”
For a moment the redhead thought, trying to piece together everything in her mind before putting it into action. This could still be a test from the Hokage, and thus she needed to not only think about her own strengths and weaknesses, but those of her team as well.
“I can’t think of anything else to add to this. I’ll be in the trees until they come at you. I’ll wait until you’re surrounded and start fighting before I jump in. I guess, this is it unless you have something else to say before I hide.”

Shadow nodded as he got ready to execute their plan. With no more then a Hmph Shadow said "Transformation jutsu,"Nothing I can think of just keep close after all we still don't know how many their numbers" as he turned into an old man carrying a Large bag full of shiny metal that resembles ryo. Shadow had a feeling that this plan would have a few hitches seeing that the bandits may or may not show their leader's face. Shadow figure he leave that up to fate and keep focus on making this plan work.
Shadow Kept walking as the old man whistling a small tune as he walked down the path. He was a bit nervous as he walked down the path. It was weird taking on a mission with very little info but if the hokage wanted down then he wasn't going fail him.Shadow tap his cane to the ground and let the sound reverberate around him aloing him to see the forest around him.
