    Mission: High Value Target:



    The sun was already falling over the Western Horizon, golden hour--dusk. Standing at the gates of Sunagakure no Sato would be the young Jounin Azuma--the man standing with his arms crossed and leaned against the tall walls surrounding the entire village, awaiting for his client. His mission was simple, but risky. The person he'd be escorting tonight was a uprising Architect, a wealthy woman maybe only a year or two older then Azuma. Something like a mission to escort someone to another land may have been deemed boring by some overly eager Shinobi, but it didn't bother Azuma any. It was a simple mission, and should hopefully pose no risk. But still, they'd decided to travel under the cover of night, to not only escape the heat of the sun--but to also limit how easily they could be found by bandits or wannabe kidnappers.

    It wasn't long, and the VIP herself would show up. The architect stepped to the gates of the village, a backpack on her back carrying what supplies she'd need on her time away. Azuma pushed himself off the wall and would see the woman approach him. "You my escort to the Land of Rivers? You match the description." "I am. We should probably get a move on." "Alright."--their exchange was brief, and it wasn't but a moment later the two of them would pass through the pathway leading between the walls, the defended gates of the village, before it opened up and shot them out into the Sunrise Desert.

    The man, dressed in his outfit made by the fox-like female Inari, kept quiet as the two of them begun their journey into the desert. They had a fairly long way it go, it'd be a while. Luckily the person he was to escort didn't seem bothered by the stoic Shinobi. Azuma was in Mission made, keeping his eyes out--keeping his sensory up. He wanted the mission to go as smoothly as possible and would make sure that happened to the best of his ability. He was focused. A while passed, and the two traveling under the cover of night had made it a long way from the village--not even Okane's towering beacon over the village could be seen now...

    The Desert Rogue and his client would continue on under the moon's light, every dune crested was another step closer to their eventual destination. But, as they crested another dune, Azuma's eyes narrowed--a glimpse of movement in the distance, quickly hidden by another dune of sand. He'd take a deep breath. "...We may have company soon, please keep close." he'd warn the architect, the slightly older woman nodding simply and staying close to her bodyguard's side. Azuma would continue to lead them on, keeping his sensory active as he did.

    It wasn't long and he'd pick up something...him halting in place and putting his arm out to stop his client from proceeding any further. Lowering his arm back down the man widened his stance and drew his Chokuto. He charged it rather quickly with the power of Chidori Katana, and stabbed it straight into the ground in front of him. The sound of the blade piercing something...or, someone, was a dead giveaway he had already taken out an enemy whom had been trying to sneak up under the sand beneath. Realizing they had been found out, two more burst up from the sand--two thugs who was the underlings of a bandit leader. They had a third...but he now already lay in his grave as Azuma pulled his sword from the sand, blood coating the tip of the blade.

    Narrowed eyes shifted side to side, from one too the other, as the two surrounded Azuma and the one the man was to protect--who now was nearly hanging off of the man hiding behind him. With her now behind him, the man slipped his Chokuto back into its sheath and quickly extended both hands out to each side, palms out. As he did this both Bandits would slam palms to the ground, both flipping a wall of earth to either side of Azuma in an attempt to 'clap' him in the middle. In a flash, taking very little time to charge up, a dual set of Raikiri would form. This was Raikiri: Unmei no Ketto ('Lightning Cutter: Duel of the Fates'), a variant he'd been working on for the past few days. Now put to use in practice. Both hands wielded a deadly Lightning Cutter, azure arcs of pure energy lashing out in all directions from both the man's hands. These pierced right through and destroyed the walls of earth on contact, keeping him and his client safe.

    The thugs grit their teeth and one drew a katana, the other a kunai--thrown in Azuma's direction. In a smooth movement Azuma caught the kunai, and redirected it to the katana wielding bandit. Bullseye...they dropped to the desert floor, their buddy's kunai between his eyes. The last bandit charged Azuma and his client, another kunai drawn to use as a stabbing weapon now. Azuma slid his sword back out, and in a single movement, drew--sliced--and sheathed his blade....letting the last bandit fall now in the space between himself and his client, after he'd moved so quickly they couldn't even see it.

    Azuma sighed and looked back to his client. "You okay...?" "Y-yeah....guess money well spent...your reputation seems earned, Sabaku no Akuto..."...with a nod between the two they would continue on towards the border with the Land of Rivers. They took a couple more hours...but eventually hit the border with the other land, and met up with a team of shinobi...with a handshake, The Desert Rogue was on his way...back to Sunagakure.
