 ~ Suzume Kinjo ~ Kumogakure ~ Jounin ~ Bukijutsu ~
Chakra Pool: 295 ~ AC: 7650 ~ Ryo: 800 When one had to run away from her mother and live on her own, one usually matured quickly. There were plenty of things to be taken care of on her own, making sure she had money, buying food and such. She would certainly say she was maturer than most people her age. After Apollo went into the bathroom to take a shower, Suzume moved over to the bed and found the photographs. Picking them up, she smiled softly as she lied down on the bed. It had certainly been a fun night and Apollo had been the right amount of sweet. Had it really been sort of a date though or just comrades enjoying a night out? Argh, why did things have to be so confusing?
Setting the pictures on the nightstand, Suzume pulled the covers up to her waist and lied down on her back. Should she really be thinking about this anyway? This was an important job, an S-Rank mission, she needed to stop worrying about this for now and focus on the mission. Maybe after when they had a break she could ask someone. There had to be someone in Kumo who could give her an idea on this matter. Right now she did think that Apollo was handsome, nice, and sweet without being too sweet. Not to mention he was an excellent swordsman. Was it just admiration or what?
Taking in a deep breath, Suzume let out a long sigh as she stared up at the ceiling. Why couldn't they prepare you for this sort of thing? There should of been a class somewhere incase a person's parents weren't around to help. Hearing the bathroom door open and Apollo walk out, Suzume leaned up onto her elbows so she could see him. She had not quite expected him to be shirtless though but it was quite a sight. Apollo's body was quite fit, yet not so much muscle that it was just freakish. Plus he had a few scars that did look good. Mentally knocking herself off this current train of thought, Suzume focused on his words. "No, we're going to sneak past everyone on the first floor, enter the second floor through a window and use our speed. By the third floor the cameras should be knocked out, we silently take out the guards, take out Shima, then we're on our way."
It was easy enough to recite, the hard part would actually be doing it. "We don't have to move out until tomorrow evening, that'll be plenty of time for me to ask any questions I might think of or to get ready." Whether she really did or did not was not the most important thing at the moment. They had a mission to focus on, Suzume figured she would just keep doing missions with Apollo and see how this went. Lying down on on her right side she asked "Are you coming to bed yet? I'm ready to fall asleep."~Cloud ~ Male German Shepherd ~ Ninja Dog in training ~ "There are no limits. Only plateaus, and one must not stay there, you must go beyond them.”

Apollo listened to Suzume speak up about the mission and nodded to the list she made. Everything sounded together and good, the only real issue was accomplishing the needed things in order for the mission to be a success. His hand slid to the towel, tossing it onto a chair while lightly sitting on the edge of the bed. He could feel his bodies tiredness weighing down on him. That's when Suzume chimed in asking if he was coming to bed. In that moment Apollo realized that he had ordered a single suite. There was only ONE bed and that meant they'd either be sleeping together or one of them would have to sleep upon the floor. "Erm.." His eyes wandered to everything but Suzume as he turned to crawl. "Well...yeah..I'm pretty tired.." He didn't know how Suzume would feel about him sleeping with her. Well, not like, ya know, SLEEPING with her, but like...sleeping with her. Gah, it was so confusing. His hand reached the edge of cover, pulling it back lightly. He'd already turned all lights off and the only thing that could be seen was his outline. Apollo moved lightly, squeezing into the bed with a scrunch or two. It felt realy...awkward. "Umm.." He turned, looking at Suzume as his body stretched out. "I...uhh..I.." Apollo wasn't used to being this clutz like. He wasn't that accustomed to women. Ever since the old days Apollo didn't really know what he was doing with them. If it weren't for his late wife he'd still be a virgin. "Ahem, goodnight.." Were his last words. His body turned to face the wall without saying much else. Though his hand sat there, touching Suzume's lightly. He hadn't retracted it yet to see what she might do. Would she grasp it, turn, and begin kissing Apollo widly, which he wouldn't mind, or would she simply move away. His heartbeat quickened to the thought of such things happening.

 ~ Suzume Kinjo ~ Kumogakure ~ Jounin ~ Bukijutsu ~
Chakra Pool: 295 ~ AC: 7650 ~ Ryo: 800 It would be the first time she ever shared a bed with a male. Not counting Cloud or the one time when she was a child and slept in her parent's bed after a nightmare. She was a bit nervous about accidentally elbowing him in the middle of the night or something. Although she was not nervous enough to suggest one of them sleep on the floor. They both needed to be well rested for tomorrow evening after all.
It would not take someone sharp to know that Apollo was nervous. Suzume had a sixth sense and she was watching his movements. Not only did he seem nervous but he also sounded nervous. Perhaps this meant that he also had his mind on certain events tonight. At least she was not the only one or that might of been awkward. Not that this was not a little awkward right now either though. Or at least this made her feel a little bit more nervous.
The red head turned her body so that she could better watch the blonde. Apollo seemed like he wanted to say something to her but he was losing his courage apparently. She did not know why but she felt... dis-satisfied. If they were going to both be nervous then someone had to bring up this subject, right? Suzume did feel his hand still touching hers and she moved her own to lightly grasp it. It was calloused and strong, something that Suzume found she liked. "Apollo... look at me."
It was not a harsh command nor was it a plea, it was just something she wanted and sort of expected him to do. When he finally turned his body around, Suzume moved his hand up to her head. She lifted her head up and then rested her cheek against his palm. It was just something she wanted to do and his palm felt nice there. Plus it might keep his attention. "I've never dated anyone or liked anyone before and I could be wrong but... do you... well, like me? And I mean that in a way, you'd want to... date me, I guess?" It sounded a bit juvenile but this was the best way she could put it right now.
"I just think we should talk about this now. Since you seem nervous for some reason and we have a mission to do."~Cloud ~ Male German Shepherd ~ Ninja Dog in training ~ "There are no limits. Only plateaus, and one must not stay there, you must go beyond them.”

Apollo was the stern type. To the death of him he'd never admit he was wrong in anything or under any assumptions from which he'd protrayed. Even if it felt wrong for him to hide whatever feelings had developed over the night, he thought himself right by hiding them. He couldn't tell her anything. That would only complicate things...right? As his body began to shift from laying down she had grabbed his hand which did in turn cause him to turn around. His tarn eyes looked to her, watching her movements and the way she placed his hand against her cheek. What would he do? What would he say? His face began to drift, but it seemed Suzume demanded attention. From her light yell Apollo turned, looking over to her. His eyes perked up lightly to her questions and he honestly didn't know how to deal with his feelings. He hadn't been interested in a woman in so many years that romantic cobwebs had built up tremendously. "Suzume.." What would he say....whatcould he say? "I...like you.." Was that it? C'mon Apollo! Don't stop there. "Your an amazing and talented young lady. Your beauty sometimes leaves me captivated and your maturity only adds on to all which was said." I haven't liked a woman in such a long time that it's hard for me to deal with all of this." A huff escaped as he finished, eyes looking to her gray ones. He was sure a little bit of tension might add to what was going on. His hand cuffed her cheek lightly and Apollo's body had moved further in to the point of them being almost completely face to face. "Do you have anything to say?"

 ~ Suzume Kinjo ~ Kumogakure ~ Jounin ~ Bukijutsu ~
Chakra Pool: 295 ~ AC: 7650 ~ Ryo: 800 It did seem a bit sudden for Apollo to have developed feelings... if he really had. Suzume was determined to find out what was really up with the man so they could get it out of the way. It seemed she had successfully gotten his attention and now the other was looking at her. She had not lightly yelled, she was sure her voice had been soft enough. Enough that she kept his attention and made it clear she wanted an answer. Apollo did not seem to want to answer but now he probably would say what needed to be said.
When he said her name, Suzume waited for him to say what he needed to say. When he finally got it out, it was sort of unexpected in a way. She'd of thought he would deny it or something. Then he went on to compliment her, something the red head was not really used to. Sure, she felt pleased in a way, that Apollo was actually complimenting her. Yet she also felt a little embarrassed for some reason. She could feel her face growing hot and she hid her face behind one hand. Not all of it of course, mostly just her eyes.
Since he was finished and obviously wanted her thoughts on the matter, Suzume had to take a moment to gather her thoughts. It sort of felt like she was under pressure and she did not know if she could say the right things. "W-well... this is... kind of sudden." she mumbled out, although she was speaking loud enough he could hear her. "I mean I don't know... but I do like you too. I mean... like you enough that maybe... I'd like to try? I dunno like, try doing whatever people do when they want to start a new relationship... see how it goes, you know?" God she sounded so awkward, she felt more embarrassed now. "I mean... maybe in between missions when things aren't so crazy. I'd like it if we tried... dating?" That was what people did, right?~Cloud ~ Male German Shepherd ~ Ninja Dog in training ~ "There are no limits. Only plateaus, and one must not stay there, you must go beyond them.”

((Fast Forward to mission Start. I'm really behind lol))
Apollo stood, looking outward to Shima's mansion with his anbu gear on. After everything had happened and his feelings were now in the air he no longer had any type of doubts in his mind about this or Suzume. She was a special woman who deserved to be treated as such. "Alright Suzume, I'm in position. I'll begin infiltration now." Apollo had already taken care of Cloud and made sure he was sent to Informant who would then take him to the border. Everything had finally worked out. Apollo took in a breath of air before closing his eyes and wrapping his anbu mask around his face. It was time to finish the real missions. His body shifted, hurrying along and heading into a tree. He took little time to climb it and he was now already on the second floor. This was where it would become a bit more difficult. His feet planted themselves on a second floor platform, looking in at the guards. "I'm on the second floor. Meet me in the middle in 30 seconds. From there we head to the 3rd and get this mission done with once and for all." Apollo spoke to Gamatatsu, who would in turn relay the message to Suzume. He ran, headed through the floor at a quickened pace. Using his natural speed and Mijutsu, Apollo was a ghost to the men of this floor. Also take in his massive perception abilities and you've come across a ninja who was an apparation by all means. Apollo soon reached the middle, looking from left to right. The men were either watching T.V or playing a lazy game of poker. None seemed to be really paying attention. "Perfect.." All that was needed now was the appearance of Suzume and then they could finally get moving with the last section of their plot.

 ~ Suzume Kinjo ~ Kumogakure ~ Jounin ~ Bukijutsu ~
Chakra Pool: 295 ~ AC: 7650 ~ Ryo: 800 Last night had gone well, they both understood how each other felt and came to a decision. Of course nothing happened, now was not the time and it was just the start of their relationship. It would be discussed more after they finished their mission, this was what was important now.
Suzume was on the other side of the mansion, ready to infiltrated now. She had heard him start the infiltration and she did the same soon after. Suzume was dressed up in the anbu outfit, she would have added stealth. Suzume moved quickly, sneaking past guards and finding a window up to the second floor. So far so good, now it was time to use some real speed.
She was not as fast but she was still fast enough that no guard would be able to really see her. Suzume rushed past them all to the middle, where they would ascend to the third floor. She saw Apollo already there and she also saw the guards were being rather lazy. She looked to him, ready to spring into action as soon as he did.~Cloud ~ Male German Shepherd ~ Ninja Dog in training ~ "There are no limits. Only plateaus, and one must not stay there, you must go beyond them.”

 " Shes here.." Apollo muttered under his breath, seeing Suzume and feeling her presence. Without much else he once again disappeared, right when a guard was turning to see if he'd heard something. His body moved swiftly, running up a wall with amazing speed. They'd made it to the third floor and by now Apollo banked on the camera's being off. His foot touched the olden chinese decore floor as he came about, seeing all the guards lined up to Shima's door. He moved quickly, pulling out a single katana before moving at his 5 with speed. His blade weaved through them and before any of them could realize what had occured they were already slashed, bleeding on the floor. Apollo took little time after defeating them and looked instantly to Shima's door. "We're finally here.." He was sure Suzume would take out her share of guards and be here at any moment, but that didn't mean he'd wait. Without a second to lose he sliced through the door, opening it up. There was no need ot be silent any longer. Shima had been knocked out the day before and he should've still been asleep. "Time to end this.." The blondes foot steps echoed lightly throughout the dark room as he made his way over to Shima, who was dead sleep, snoring like a fat child. Apollo raised his blade, will unaffected by what he was about to do. Then, a moment later he brought his blade down, effectively cleaving off Shima's head. Blade spattered everywhere and his dislodged head hit the floor with a thud. It was a grim sight for antone to see, but Apollo was a ninja. This was nothing more than work for him. "Done.." His voice resounded, not an inch of regret for taking this mans life. He turned to Suzume, as he was sure she'd be in the room by now. "We're done here. Let's make our escape. Mind making an exit for us?" Apollo didn't wanna do everything and leave Suzume with nothing to do. Once they got to the roof they'd make their escape and head back to Cloud.

 ~ Suzume Kinjo ~ Kumogakure ~ Jounin ~ Bukijutsu ~
Chakra Pool: 295 ~ AC: 7650 ~ Ryo: 800 Movement up to the second floor was quite easy, Suzume had plenty of power in her leg muscles. Not to mention she could use her chakra to stick to the wall. Up on the third floor, she could see five guards that she needed to take out. Drawing her blade, she moved, a mere flickers as she sliced all of their throats in one go. Blood gushing out, silent, they fell to the floor. After they were done, she met up with Apollo and had watched as he went into the room. Seconds later, he severed Shima's head from his body, blood gushing out all over the floor and bed.
Seeing him turn, she nodded at the request to make an exit. Drawing a second blade, she used Hydra Strike and Twin Blade, force shooting up to the roof, slicing and shearing air cutting a perfect square into the roof above them. The wood fell to the floor and the night sky was above them. Suzume jumped up through the hole and landed on the roof. "Let's go."~Cloud ~ Male German Shepherd ~ Ninja Dog in training ~ "There are no limits. Only plateaus, and one must not stay there, you must go beyond them.”

Apollo's eyes watched Suzume perform her technique and make a hole in the roof. As the wood and brick fell through Apollo's face was hit with moonlight. "We can get back home finally.." He leaped after Suzume, hitting the roof with a smile, though it was masked by his Anbu Gear. It felt good to have accomplished their mission and it felt good to be heading back. Apollo did a few handsigns, but whilst he did he knew he heard something. "THERE ON THE ROOF! RIGHT ABOVE MR. SHIMA'S ROOM!" So they'd finally taken notice what had happened, but it was all too late. His hands touched the roof and up came a large puff of smoke. The outline of a Toad could be seen and it was much bigger than normal. "Alright Suzume...let's get moving.." He awaited her to get on the Toad's back before it would leap away, headed off into the distance. Behind them Apollo could hear the screams of those who'd just found out about Shima's death. Honestly, to a Shinobi, it was music to his ears.

 ~ Suzume Kinjo ~ Kumogakure ~ Jounin ~ Bukijutsu ~
Chakra Pool: 295 ~ AC: 7650 ~ Ryo: 800 Up on the roof, Suzume could hear that the guards had spotted them. It did not matter at this point though, Shima was dead and they were ready to escape. The red head watched as Apollo summoned a large toad, which reminded her that she needed to get her own summoning as well. Getting on the back of the toad after Apollo did she said "Right, it'll be nice to go home. I'm sure Cloud is more than ready." Soon they were off, the red head had one hand on Apollo's arm and the other finding something else to hold on to while the toad hopped away from the mansion. They had made a clean get away to say the least, Suzume was sure this mission was one hundred percent successful.~Cloud ~ Male German Shepherd ~ Ninja Dog in training ~ "There are no limits.
