      A B-rank Escort mission. Simple enough. It'd explain the rather...odd assembly of shinobi for the task. This was a time of high traffic in Konoha. Many young teams had been sent out recently and the more seasoned shinobi were absent, several assigned to goodwill missions with the other hidden villages. This was a time of rebuilding and healing after the Fourth War.

      Kaizu Ageshio, Tokubetsu Jonin, aged 20. A former member of Root who's offensive abilities and Water affinity complimented Mika's defenses. A reasonable choice for the mission.

      Yasu Kurusu, Genin, aged 15. This was a rather odd decision from the Hokage. If pressed, they'd probably say it was because Yasu was a budding shiobi with a good variety of skills who needed valuable field experience. Besides, the mission wasn't expected to be difficult and if nothing else Yasu would provide support.

      The first meeting was awkward. Mika was suffering a hangover and attempting to alleviate the pain with coffee. How that would work she didn't know but it made her feel better. The crankiness led to terse, huffy replies from the young woman. She wasn't normally so grumpy but the previous night had been another binge. She knew better than to let herself go before a mission. It would pass in a few hours anyways. After receiving their information and the location of the meeting place with the team, the trio set out. Mika stopped by a shop to get some more coffee and a few pills for the headache. [The coffee tasted like piss but she never put cream or sweeteners in her drinks.] If it were possible her mood got fouler and by the time they were finally departing Mika was barking out orders like a retired veteran yelling at children playing in his yard.

      ."Keep up! We're expected before nightfall! Yasu, mind the bags! They better all be accounted for when we stop!" Yasu being the youngest and male faced the brunt of Mika's anger for now. She'd simmered down by the time they arrived at the meeting point but was still not feeling her usual self. When they met the archaeologists Mika quickly excused herself to be in a quiet, dark room for the night. Unfortunately she was sharing that room with her teammates. She would have to apologize sooner or later...

84.

"No!" She screamed and her team looked at her, startled. Hinata ran towards the boy's fallen form, refusing to leave it at that, refusing to let someone die, just like that, in front of her, especially someone as young as him - someone who still had much, too much ahead of him to go now. The life of a kunoichi was hard, cold, cruel and it stripped away one's innocence in a matter of seconds, but if Hinata could avoid the worst of outcomes, if she could at least save this one then maybe...

"Hinata, he's dead. It's no use." Kiba said behind her, but his voice held too much emotion to be considered indifferent. She shook her head - the blood that soaked tips of her raven hair flying everywhere. "No," she repeated pathetically and placed both hands on top of the boy's chest, pushing at the same time that she locked their lips together and tried to breathe some life back into him. She was no medic and it was no miraculous procedure but it was something and it'd have to do. The act was repeated once, twice, three times. Shino stood quiet in the back but even he watched the scene with something that could only be interpreted as pity. It didn't matter, though. She wouldn't stop. 

"You can't die on me." She whispered in the boy's ear as she continued to push one, two, three times. Four. Five. 

Kiba and Shino remained silent, tired, mournful... 

And unable to hear it when Yasu Kurusu sucked in a breath.

"Ehi, be quiet and c’mere Sue-chan!" closing the gap between the two he simply made way and hugged the other male the best he could with that single appendage.

-- - "Tch." Although reluctant, the male let his frame sink into the hug, however stiff he was. "Like hell..you're the one about to bawl your eyes out for no apparent reason..." Begins to pry himself away from the others grasp.
