The recently minted chunin sat in the medical library at the village's hospital, flipping carefully through a textbook. Since receiving a reccomendation from the Tanikage for a medical apprenticeship, mostly of Sasaki's time had been spent at the hospital studying. He'd found he had more talent for iryojutsu than he previously believed. With such a great teacher, he'd excelled and been a rather quick study. It'd given him a whole new passion in the subject, to the extent he'd decided to put his sealing studies on the backburner and specialize his talents in the medical profession. In his focused pursuits, he'd become so entranced in his reading that the sudden voice in the room startled him noticeably. "Sasaki Togeru. The Tanikage is requesting you meet her in her office immediately."
It took him a second to actually find the source of the voice, but felt silly when he located it. "Oh, hi ma'am. Sorry, what did you say?" The young man closed the book and looked at her again, ensuring her he was paying attention this time. The police chief sighed sighed slightly and repeated herself. "You're being summoned to the Kage's office. Now." Sasaki nodded and stood, collecting the book and replacing it before he left. The chief had left before he'd made it to the shelf, so he decided he'd better hurry along.
A few minutes later, Sasaki knocked on the Tanikage's partially open door and entered. He smiled at the woman and greeted her. "Good morning, ma'am! Chief Kiyoko said you wanted to see me?"

It had been some weeks since the sour faced Hasaki had her hands damaged significantly from the incident in the Weald. After a lot down time, treatments and short term rehab to get full use of her fingers again…., reaching a point where she could use them efficiently again but playing music in her flute seemed to still be out of the question. One more day and she would be consider fit for duty and the increasing boredom that had been mounting up would be cured from business again. For now she was “trapped” lounging in comfortable wear on the pillowed floor of her bedroom, surrounded by enormous sleeping ferrets while flipping through a book with undedicated focus. The lull would be unsurprisingly disturbed but by a more surprising source than what would have been expected, a knock at her front door making her perk up with a bit of uncertainty…., she had a visitor, Hasaki never got visitors.
”Mmmmmmmhh….., be right there…!” She called after kneeling up and stretching her arms above her head, arching her back to recalibrate her muscles from the prior lack of usage. Trudging over to where the knocking came from and offering her generally accusatory look as she simply asked ”Yeah, what do you need?” Her face not showing it but she was genuinely surprised that there would be a shinobi at her door today, tilting her head as Kiyoko offered the reason for their visit, which was not just some sort of social call. ”Hasaki Yozen, You have been summon to speak with the Tanikage at her office, immediately.” The police chief explained, hoping she’d no need repeat herself yet again or receive and dispute. Hasaki scrunched her face a little after the statement, not annoyed but a bit put off as she should be being asked for till tomorrow, still this isn’t something she would argue with, instead stating ”Pretty sure I’m not on duty till tomorrow, still…. I will leave shortly as I have to get ready first.” She said indicating to her ruffled state produced by inactivity, before turning and slamming the door shut behind her to do exactly as she said.
A short while later Hasaki strolled toward the main office, unaccompanied by even a single of her ferret partners, the lot of the totally out cold and would need an hour or so before they snapped out of deep sleep. She would be a strong 10 or so minutes later than Sasaki, her long tailed hood that was normally pulled up would not be, the woman instead in the process of brushing her hair to get it properly tamed and untangled as she strode in. In stark contrast to the polite form Sasaki offered as he entered the office, Hasaki true to form spoke much more casually. ”I was told I needed to be here.., what’dya need?… Tch dammed knots” The last part muttered a few instants after she spoke as the brushes motion jerked from getting caught and caused an unpleasant tugging pain from her scalp. Hasaki looked to her side, pausing the hand brushing her hair and gave Sasaki a narrow eyed look over, kind of like she was judging a piece of modern at and wanted to say something, instead just looking away from him to Usagi and going back to what she was doing.

Usagi tilted her head as Hasaki shuffled into her office, mumbling about her hair. “When… was the last time you brushed your hair?” With her hands no longer hiding her face, the bags under the woman’s eyes became more apparent. “Well, thank you for gracing us with your presence, Hasaki.” Usagi sighed and absently fiddled with some papers on her desk. “I know you’ve got an extra day, but we’re a bit short handed and I have a favor to ask.” The Tanikage was still fidgeting and, in an attempt to stop, she steepled her fingers together and rested her chin on top of them. “And thanks, Sasaki, for coming as well. I know you just got done with a mission, so I apologize for not letting you get a lot of rest. Hopefully you can get some during this mission.”
Usagi let out a huff as she tried to settle her heartbeat. Facing the murder of her family wasn’t something she’d actually gotten a chance to come to terms with, and it was becoming more and more clear in this brief conversation. Well, might as well rip the bandaid off. “As you may or may not know, my family was recently murdered.” It took all of Usagi’s willpower not to vomit just by saying that, let alone keep her composure. “So I’m taking a trip to Konoha to… see the damage for myself. Normally I would go by myself, but Kiyoko insisted I bring an escort. So I would like you two to come with me.” As she spoke, Usagi began tapping her fingers against the back of her hand. Even her leg started to bounce underneath the table.
“So that’s your mission.” Usagi wasn’t sure how to exactly finish her little explanation. “You’ll be traveling with me to Konoha, as bodyguards. Should you accept, we leave whenever the two of you are ready. Normally I’d tell you that I don’t think you’d need to prepare for much, but… the world’s kind of crazy right now. Between rampant Jashinists and… there’s something else that I need to investigate as well. A potential new problem that hasn’t exactly shown itself yet, but I’ve got a bad feeling about. If that makes any sense.” Usagi waved away her own words dismissively and rose to her feet. “So yeah. Let me know when you’re ready and we’ll be on our way.”
Shortly after arriving to the office, another person entered, apparently summoned there by the kage as well. Usagi addressed them, and thanked them for their attendance despite each of their own circumstances. Sasaki waved off her apology with a smile. "Ah, no worries. I've learned little naps here and there work wonders for me."
Usagi went on to explain her recent loss, a message Sasaki had been witness to her receiving. He nodded along as she spoke. When she finished, he thought quietly for a moment about what he might need, before speaking. "I'm sorry for your loss, ma'am. I can be ready to travel within the hour, I just need to let my mentor know I'll be leaving for a while, and grab some gear from home. Should we meet back here?"

Hasaki was to instantly answer the likely rhetorical question with ”I haven’t brush it in about a week, I forgot it’s so unruly..” She immediately responded to the more than likely rhetorical question, grumbling immediately after due to the tugging of some knots. She didn’t pay visual attention until turning her head back toward Usagi, opening her mouth to make a comment but the woman’s slightly haggard facial features gave pause to the ferret tamer. Now she chose to stay quiet and considering it not like she’d ever had the Tanikage ask a favour of her, movements of fraying nerves ringing loud to Hasaki’s keen vision and making her wonder what was going on. Then Usagi spoke toward the other person and hello and behold his name was a mere letter off from her own, an internal groan that only a person willing to be annoyed by something like that could make.
Giving him the second look as she was curious as to what the pair were needed for, something was up and she couldn’t figure out what, though there wasn’t too much prevalent information. That is until a bomb was dropped, one that even a grouch like herself could empathize with.., the fact is that it appeared as though Usagis parents were dead, murdered no less. It would be evident that this took the platinum blonde woman by surprise as her harsh eyes would lighten up, loosing the generally accusing nature they normally harbour. It was generally easy to assume why Usagi wanted them to be prepared for possible trouble what with the state of things as they were, the mission sounding simple enough beyond potential trouble but Hasaki was still kinda of stuck on how to acknowledge the whole parents being murdered thing. Out of the pair it was Sasaki would talk first, being as he had been grabbed from the end of one job it appeared he’d need to get some gear, something she would also need to do.
She would follow him up with face also filled with strain as this wasn’t something she did, sounding a little awkward or stiff in doing so. ”Like he said, sorry for your loss, it is no a fair thing…. I need to grab a little gear as well, didn’t realize I was going to be going on an excursion or I would be already prepared, it won’t take me long to collect it.” The woman said in a quieter manner lacking the normal displeasure and disinterest she tended to exude. Relaxing a little from her attentive stance, Hasaki grimaced a little while looking over the outside of her hands with a pang of anxiety and muttering ”Fingers crossed we aren’t going to run into trouble, I’d rather not be stuck recovering for another several weeks.” This all being said as she flexed her fingers in a mobility test, only waiting around at this point to hear Usagi confirm or clarify Sadaki’s final question of if they’d be meeting back here.
