The sun hung high above the sky, couldn't have been any more than 12 or 1. Though the day was at its peak, the natural frigid climate of Lightning Country seemed to overcome and overtake any warm rays the sun might have tried to cast down to the denizens of Cloud. Fortunately it didn't appear that it would rain and there were so few clouds in the sky today. A slight breeze would find its way through the cracks and crevices of Minako's outfit sending a shiver up her spine. Hopefully she had dressed warmly for this occasion, her very first mission was at hand! She already on her way towards the mission office, there she would finally see what it was like to be a shinobi... Sorta
As she walked through various neighborhoods and past miscellaneous shops and stores, a plethora of scents would invade her senses. The house just down the road had just baked a fresh pie and casually left it upon the windowsill. The fresh, sweet aroma of berry filled the air and clung to the insides of her nose. A nearby ramen shop had even more enticing scents coming from within, salty warm wholesomeness drifted about. Yes today seemed to be a, relatively speaking, peaceful day within the confines of Kumogakure.
In time, Minako would find herself at the steps of a large building, unmistakable to the likes of her kind. A visage of power, responsibility and opportunity, The Mission Office. Within its sturdy walls anyone can find work. Whether it be small or big, the assortment of odd jobs could range from miniscule garden work all the way to something grand and dangerous as hunting down a bingo book target. Given her young and newly attained title of Genin, Minako would surely have opted for something a little safer. Something that would offer some quick cash without much relative work involved. As she entered the room marked with the lowest mission symbol, a loud creak would emanate throughout the almost barren room. As she awkwardly entered the room, she only see a few other people within. A pair of freshly graduated students and the Mission Officer. He gave Minako a pleasant smile and waved her over as the pair of kids scampered away with their own missions. "Welcome, welcome. How might I help you today?" Brief and to the point, as one might expect people in a place like this to be. He would await her answer even though he essentially already knew why and was already sizing her up to pick the most suitable job for someone like her.
