The mushrooms were cool underneath his fingertips as he freed them from the base of the large Oak tree. Shaking them gently to dislodge the dirt, the ‘young’ med-nin placed the prized ingredients into a large brown leather satchel that hang over his shoulder.
“Only a couple more to go Mikki. Then we can leave this place”.
His earstwhile companion, a small wooden puppet named, for some unknown reason, Mikki, limply hung out of one of the many pockets on the satchel, not saying a word.
“No its not pretty. Its damp and cold, and smells like... well… like wet wood,” the white haired shinobi muttered. Standing up, Migoya brushed off the dirt from his blue-clad knees and stood. He wore the traditional Konoha shinobi attire, although this was accompanied by an oversized brown robe, open at the front, which now seemed dirtier than it should. His white hair was messy – he didn’t bother trying to tame that beast when he was gathering ingredients. After all, who would see him out here?
Migoya’s keen crimson eyes scanned the forest floor, looking for more mushrooms. Annoyed at not finding any, he slumped a bit in his gait and started to slowly wander, kicking loose earth from the ground. He might have looked in his early 20s, but his attitude was rather childish to say the least.
A noise quickly brought him out of his childish outburst, and the one loose med-nin seemed to raise his hackles, preparing for whatever was coming towards him.
“Identify yourself”, he muttered, a stray hand reaching towards Mikki as his gaze wandered around the forest. "I... I mean. Please identify yourself."
