She was grinning from ear to ear as she walked through the somewhat crowded streets. Unlike a few days ago, she had a new piece of equipment which made her standout just a little bit more than the typical girl. That being a shiny metal plated headband which now rested atop her head, proof that she had passed the genin examinations and was recognized as a sand shinobi. Just the thought of this made her cheeks become a vibrant red which only encouraged her smile to widen. It had after all been an important moment for both herself and her clan as she among a few other Goremu children had been the first shinobi produced by the newly established clan. What she did and the decisions she made would effect her clan's reputation and that weight was without a doubt not forgotten in her mind. It had only been a few days since she'd passed her exam and for a gift her father had given her a good amount of money to spend. With it she had purchased some equipment from several shinobi patron'd shops but today she was using what was left to goof off. It was after all the day before she was to meet her sensei.. To this end she found herself walking among the crowd, barefoot as typical of her clan, with a small sack of various candies while holding onto a dango stick. Finding a good stopping point, which was basically her leaning against a walkway that overlooked the lower levels of houses and shops below. Her eyes glanced over these layers of buildings, the streets all bustling with activity while chewing on a dango. She would sigh after swallowing and dropped her head almost in a defeated, second guessing type sense. "I am supposed to protect all of this...I hope I can become something great." [MFT - 311] |
