It was early, barely past nine in the morning, but the market already had quite a few people. Kagayaki stood at the edge, waiting for her assigned partner for this mission. She'd recently gone on a similar one, though it seemed this time the perps were stealing more than food: bags, and other possessions of the like, things she'd have to get back as part of her assignment.

She stretched out, and groaned slightly. She had her forehead protector around her neck, an easy way for her partner to identify her, and her short blonde hair and braid matched the light orange band quite well. Her blue eyes scanned the crowd, just in case something happened while she waited, though she had to admit she was pretty bored as she waited.

She took the time to let her mind wander a bit. At first glance the market seemed lively, like nothing bad was going on, but in reality she could tell people were scared as she looked at their faces when they walked past her. The war worried her too, but all she could do to help right now was stop these thieves who were taking advantage of a difficult situation.

The robe covers just one of his shoulders; it leaves the other uncovered and flows down into a tasteful semi-sweetheart neckline. It's a tight fit which accentuates his muscles, but it does so in an elegant manner and isn't skin tight.
His arms have been covered till about the elbows, the sleeves are simply, yet elegant. A perfect combination of grace and style.

The robe's waist is narrow, and it's a slim fit. A obi bow has been wrapped around his waist and positioned slightly to one side.
Below the waist the robe fits snug around him and has a dress style. The robe reaches to just above his ankles and is longer at the sides and back of the robe.

Aikura scanned the market looking for his partner; he'd been paired with another shinobi to complete a mission - even though it was early the market was full of activity, merchants shouting the prices of their wares and the ear numbing hum of many people talking.

With a yawn Aikura decided to walk deeper into the market, even though it was a nice day a little sweat ran down Aikura's face - a strand of hair kept sticking to his face, pausing for a second he tied his hair into a ponytail. As he stopped he could see another shinobi standing around; he had a feeling that was his partner.

Tightening his obi he walked up with a smile, "Hello my name is Hannetsu Aikura. I think you're my partner for today's mission," Aikura pulled a scroll from a satchel he had tied around his body, "Hunt down thieves right?"

Aikura placed his hands on his tanto's and chuckled, "I'm ready when you are! Sorry that I kept you waiting, I got lost in the crowd and couldn't find you."

Aikura paused and frowned, "Need to do anything before we go? I know the mission is an easy one but this war has me nervous - even on an easy mission like this one never knows if we'll run into a rouge. Don't worry though, if we're on a mission together I'll put my life in the line for you..."

Kagayaki spotted the other shinobi headed her way as she looked over the market. "Geh!" She blurted out as she noticed his fashionable outfit, pausing to look down at her own... An oil-stained beige long-sleeved shirt and some cargo pants with plenty of pockets, she felt like she'd lost a battle she hadn't even signed up for. 

She felt some relief when he got close and smiled to her, thinking he didn't seem to be that bad. She noticed he wasn't much taller than she was, she was used to people towering over her short stature, so it was a nice change of pace. "Aye! Aye! That's me! Ressha Kagayaki, feel free to call me Kagayaki, Hannetsu-san. " She answered with a large grin on her face, making a small, two-finger salute.

She blushed a little and covered a chuckle with a hand as he said he'd put his life on the line for her, she knew it was just his job and she'd do the same, but saying it out-loud without feeling any embarrassment was something she might struggle slightly. "Thanks, I'll watch your back too." She answered with a smile as she returned to normal. 

"I'm good on supplies, though we should probably take off our Noragakure headbands now that we've grouped up, least the thieves notice us and bail." She said, undoing the knot on the one around her neck before neatly folding it and placing it inside one of her many pockets. "We'll have to follow the thieves back to their home base, so if one steals something we should probably just follow him and retrieve the stolen things afterwards. How does that sound?"
Armand
Aikura nodded as he untied his headband, "Sounds like a good plan Kagayaki-dono," Aikura smiled as he slipped his headband into his robe - starting to walk he turned back around and scratched his chin, "Silly me, we should probably inform eachother about our abilities; i use Kenjutsu and earth release, i like to attack by surprise and immobilize my enemies. I have a basic understanding of medical Ninjutsu and genjutsu and I am pretty nimble - will I can fight head on I usually try not too. As you can see I have a pretty small stature and frame so I'm not the strongest guy around."

Aikura folded his arms and continued to walk forward, "Most of the jutsu i know are catered to my fighting style, the best technique in my arsenal is earth release: hiding like a mole technique so I can catch people by surprise. How about you? What is your strengths and weaknesses and what techniques do you have in your arsenal?"
Renee
Kagayaki listened as she walked beside him, not having to strain her neck looking up was a big plus. She chuckled as he finished, keeping an eye out as they wandered around. "We seem to be polar opposites. Unlike you, I specialize in long-range fighting. Throwing shuriken and long range ninjutsu, though I can kind of-" She waved her hand side to side, "-hold my own in close combat and I may be small but I can pack quite a punch." She made some shadow punches for dramatic effect, "Though when it comes to running, I ain't the fastest, nor can I do it for very long."

She quickly signaled a couple of hand seals, the speed somewhat impressive. She opened her hand in front of her, lightning coming out of her hand, between her fingers for a bit before dissipating. She wanted to show off a bit, but not enough to draw attention from the people around her. "As you can see I use lightning element jutsus, and I have a few in the pocket, mostly for medium-ranged attacks. And though it won't be useful here I always like to mention it, you need anything built, I'm your girl!" She proudly proclaimed, a big smile on her face. 

Only a few moments after she was done talking a clearly female voice shouted out, "Thief! He grabbed my bag!" Several people turned towards the sound, as did the genin. A lanky male was running into an alley, stolen bag in hand. Kagayaki jogged after him, assuming Aikura would run behind her as well.

Chasing him wasn't particularly difficult, he seemed so busy running at his full speed that he wasn't really paying too much attention to those following him from afar. Eventually he led the genin to an abandoned two-story house, he entered through the front, closing the door behind him.
Armand
Aikura gestured to his left side, and held up his fist signifying to stay close to him, he took a step back and weaved a couple of quick and seals, "I'm going under, in two seconds kick the door down," Finishing his jutsu he slowly sunk into the ground.
Renee
"I like the attitude!" Kagayaki commented and shot towards the door. *1, 2!* She thought as she gave the door a mighty kick. It was old it seems cuz it didn't burst open, but it's hinges broke and the door was flung into the building. There were two people inside, males. 

One of them was holding open the bag while the other searched and they stopped to look dumbfounded at Kagayaki as she tore the door off it's hinges.

"You're under arrest!" She shouted out, trying to look cool.
Armand
Aikura clapped his hands together, "Genjutsu: Bell ring," As he finished weaving his hand seals he could see the one holding the bag stumbling and grabbing his ears, sprinting over he quickly pulled his tanto and hit him in the temple with the hilt - the thief collapsed to the floor and Aikura looked to his partner, "I'll leave the other to you!"
