Name: Pursuit!
Rank: C
Ninja needed 1-3
Mission info: Important scrolls was stolen from Mr Yanhai who resides in a neighboring village close to Kirigakure and need to be retrieved immediately. Find, catch, and bring them to justice. Return the scrolls to Mr Yanhai and report back.

Kaine would hold the scroll for the mission in her hands, the afternoon light shining upon the scroll as she read it. She understood the goals, self-explanatory. She would just need to come up with a strategy. She bit her lip, deep and lost in her thoughts. She would begin to walk, making her way to the village in which the scrolls had originally been stolen from. Kaine, was of course, a shinobi. She had no idea what these scrolls contained, but for someone to steal them it must be something special and important. Kaine decided to leave her thoughts behind and sprint on towards the village. Once she got the whole story, she would devise a plan. As a new shinobi of Kirigakure, she wanted to prove herself, but hell, didn't everyone want that? Kaine would sprint through the forest on the way to the village, only glancing at the map two or three times. She would slow down when she knew that she was only a ten minute walk away, and a smile crossed her face. It was time for showing her abilities. She would make her way into the village and try to locate the man named Mr Yanhai's home.

Kaine would make her way down the worn dirt roads of the small outskirt village. People threw glances at Kaine, but they were reluctant to help her find the correct home. Finally, one stepped up to Kuroi, a younger looking woman with a small kid clinging to her pants leg. "Excuse me? You seem new, can I help you find something, or..." the woman would say, a friendly ting to her voice. "Ah yes, actually. I am looking for a man by the name of Mr. Yanhai. I'm from Kirigakure." Kaine would say these words, one hand trailing to her headband, showing her Kirigakure pride. "Oh, is that so? I can help you. See that bend in the road? Well, you want to take the fork to the right and he is the first house on the left." The woman was helpful indeed, and Kaine smiled. "Why, thank you very much." Kaine would give a friendly nod of departure and follow the directions that the woman gave her. Once she found the home, she would give a few raps upon the door. An old man answered the door, looking at her over his glasses. "Why, yes? Are you the shinobi that I requested to recover my scrolls?" Kaine would offer a quick nod, taking in the man. He wore farming clothes, but he seemed much to old to be a farmer. She shook that thought out of her head and came back to reality just as the man spoke once more. "Well, come on in and have a seat. I can explain everything to you." the man would say, stepping aside and holding an arm out towards the inside of his home. Kaine made her way inside.

Kaine would take in the surroundings of the small home. The old man seemed to live alone and she could see in the back of the home was a door; chained many times, and a thought crossed her mind. Perhaps that was the scroll room. Mr. Yanhai showed her a place to seat herself as she did so. She would fold her hands on top of the table she sat in front of, looking at the man, waiting for him to speak. The mission scroll was indeed at the ready for whenever she happened to need it. "Well, I believe you know the jist of it. I had important scrolls stolen from me sometime last night. Around two or three scrolls he took. I got a brief profile of the guy. He wore cloth on his body, so I didn't get that good of a description, but the look he gave me was one of death. He had hair that covered nearly all his face, leaving holes for eyes. When he left, he gave me a smirk that chilled my bones. He was average height and slender. Those scrolls have secret information on them, and I don't want them in his hands longer than necessary. Please do help me. Oh, he also seemed to not be a shinobi of any village, which perplexes me as why he would want scrolls in the first place..." Then man spoke and Kaine watch attentively, nodding as he spoke. "Well, I'll be sure to get your scrolls back soon. I know what its like to worry about your information leaked. Do you know where he went at all?" Kaine was trying to obtain more leads. "Well... He ran eastwards into the dark. As I said, it was night when he broke into my home while I was outside tending to my plants. I think he might have a place where hes at near here though...." The man would continue. Kaine stood herself up, ready to go find the culprit. "Well, Mr. Yanhai. I'll be sure to find this guy. And turn him in. I'll get your scrolls back to you whole, don't worry." Kaine made her way out the door and headed eastwards, just as the old man had told her the culprit headed; as she ran she kept the information about the man in her head.

Once Kaine reached the area with trees, she would silently jump into the branches. It was becoming fall still, but at least the leaves were not all gone. They provided good enough cover for her so she would remain undetected. She cloaked herself within the setting sun and stayed above the dying summer leaves. She was careful not to make a sound as she bounded from branch to branch. She could not alert her enemy, having stealth was futile to this mission. She was indeed only a genin, but the girl knew enough about life of a ninja to stick to values. Kaine would soon slow down though, once she saw the lighted area ahead. It seemed someone was taking residence in this area. She would sneak upon the trees, keeping her stealth, trying to locate the culprit. She stopped in her tracks once she saw movement. Matching him up with the description the old man gave, this guy looked like who Kaine was looking for. There was a lit fire nearby and she studied it. A few feet away from the fire were rolled up scrolls. Her line of vision matched up with two neatly wrapped scrolls. It seemed as if the man had not the time to look inside of them quite yet. A grin slowly crossed her countenance. Ah, there is my objective. She could perhaps sneak down there and retrieve the scrolls, but the mission scroll DID in fact say bring the culprit to justice. Kaine smirked; Oh this would be fun.

Kaine used the back of her hand to brush her bangs from her eyes. Thoughts quickly ran through her head, deciding a plan. Simplistic ideas of a more evil nature crossed her mind at first, but once she realized that authority may not like it that she killed the guy over some scrolls, she pushed those thoughts from her mind. She had to do this like a true shinobi. She took pride in her skills and planned on increasing her skills so she could get any little bit of recognition. Mmm.. Perhaps I can just get down their stealthily, distract the guy with a clone and then snatch him from behind. As the old man said, I really don't believe this man belongs to any village. He probably doesn't have the skills of those like me and won't see through this little plan of mine.. She smirked at this thought. It seemed as if it were the perfect plan of action. As quickly and as quietly as she possibly could, she would perform the needed hand signs and summon a simple clone of herself. Academy level was all. At this point, her elemental clones were not needed. Once her clone stood next to her, it accidentally brushed against leaves, causing the culprit to look up. Shit... now he's alert. They both would press themselves as flat as they could against the tree trunk, holding their breathe. Finally the man went back to doing whatever it was he was previously. Time to carry out with her plans it seemed.

Kaine would send the replica of herself across a branch, a few meters away from the man. Her clone would jump down. Kaine watched the duplicate make its way towards the fire, the expression upon its face curious and interested. The headband on her clone had been taken off, no need to alert the man she was attempting to catch. She planned for her duplicate to seem curious in why there was a lit fire from the woods, just a curious civilian was the role that she was playing. Her clone made it to a few feet away from the man before he noticed. "Who are you? What are you doing here?" The man's voice seemed to sport a nervous zing to it and this made Kaine smirk. "Me? Oh, I was just wondering about this fire. It's getting chilly, so I hoped to catch a bit of flame to keep warm on my way home." Her clone spoke as calmly as possible. The guy seemed to relax and Kaine saw her chance. "Well, I guess that you're okay then...". There... He let his guard down. Now I strike. Kaine would silently and stealthily make her way a few meters across the trees and making her way to a branch where she could easily jump down onto the man. She would position herself perfectly, making sure she would hit her mark. The two below continued conversation while she readied herself. Once the moment was right, she would let herself fall down gently, reaching out with her hands, landing on the man. A kunai was in her hand, held against the mans throat. "Come with me without a fight and you keep your life." She would quietly murmur this into the man's ear. She stood them both up, holding him tight, keeping the knife positioned. She watched from the corner of her eye as her duplicate picked the scrolls up, dangling them by their binding strings. Her clone drew a kunai as well, holding it would towards the man as they walked back towards the village. Heh.. I did it. Once returning to the village, she would return to Mr. Yanhai, handing over the scrolls and going back on her way.
