Characters: Sakura Haruno & Akiha Tohno
Location: Brazil
Rating: PG-13 at the most
Time: April 11th
Description: Mission 170a: People in Brazil have reported giant slug-like creatures burrowing up from the soil. These large beasts have been known to consume an entire person whole on contact, and do not release their prey the moment they latch onto them. The Brazilian government has requested Shibusen’s aid with destroying this threat before too many of its citizens are consumed.

[ Traveling was a cinch for someone as adaptive as Sakura, so there was no immediate culture shock whenever they traveled through the mirror into a completely different country. She's dressed for a mission as expected of a kunoichi with various packs along her legs, hips, and back. Honestly, it's as though she came prepared to investigate the area more than actually beat up a bunch of slugs.

As such, she'll be proving said point to her partner for this mission. Pulling out a bottle of cloudy liquid, she'll give a firm nod. ]

It's as I was saying. [ She more than likely has been chatting her head off for the past few minutes... ] Slugs don't do well with salt, so I've brought a couple bottles of water filled with salt. We'll just toss one at a slug and see how it reacts!

Oh, but first I'd like to get a good look at them. [ Gently placing the bottle back into the pack on her lower back, she looks away from Akiha while continuing. ] Someone I knew back home was known for this kind of creature, so I'm wondering if there's any relation. You don't mind that, do you?

[Whereas Sakura had indeed been talking Akiha's ear off since they met up for the mission, the meister wasn't paying much attention. Her thoughts were turned inward, going over the exchange her and Sion had at breakfast regarding this mission.

It still didn't make sense to Akiha. Needless to say, she didn't quite catch all of what Sakura had been talking about and it showed.]

...hm? Mind what?

[Unlike the ninja, Akiha was wearing a long red skirt, white blouse and black fingerless gloves. She had her hair pulled back in a long ponytail and her shinguard/greave-like armor on her right leg. They didn't remotely look like they belonged together.]
