Kaeru's response to Nagisa wasn't the best of responses to say the least. Not only did he address her in a less than proper way, he tried to make light of the situation. Yes he did add -sama at the end of it but to call Nagisa 'Bug-sama' was still very rude considering their difference in ranks and how it could be more or less considered a crude reference to her control over bugs. Which as far as Shizuna was concerned, Kaeru should have no knowledge of Nagisa's link to the Aburame clan; she only knew of it through whispers/talks of other shinobi in the vacancy. 'So how...'

As her message to Kaeru was left with no comment, Shizuna was ready to pose another while also lecturing him for his rude way of addressing Nagisa when the side of her eyes caught the fast movements of Nagisa's hands as she drew her kunai and brought it to Kaeru's throat. 'So fast...' As keen was Shizuna's every observant eyesight, even she couldn't fully capture the motion of Nagisa pulling out her kunai and lunging at Kaeru. It had happened all too fast allow Shizuna only to catch like a blur of her hand before Nagisa vanished from the spot. Eyes on Nagisa as she spoke to Kaeru, Shizuna would notice the seriousness of her words and could only nod her head in agreement. 'Every threat has to be nipped it the bud least we risk it blooming into something worst...an inside threat...'

Deciding to leave Nagisa to handle Kaeru, Shizuna would hang back and merely observe the two, slightly more relaxed now that Nagisa had withdrew the kunai from the male's neck. 'It wouldn't be too good if a commotion was caused by this. Two Kumo shinobi, one with a kunai pointed at the neck of another...the village has enough troubles to worry about as it is...' Again Kaeru would answer in such a way that Shizuna found unfitting. He once more took Nagisa's words lightly and twisted them to make him seem not at fault. No matter how much one is disadvantaged, or in need of getting stronger, to use the villagers as test subjects was not the proper way to go about things. 'Pickpocketing is for the village...seems someone might need to be kept on watch or at least steered in the proper direction again in terms of how training is conducted...' He would also make another comment about how he would be the last one to betray the village before making his way over to the mess Hasaki left and began assisting in the clean up. 'That makes things seem even worst...That a more noble character and dedicated shinobi would be before him to betray Kumo...he really needs to watch his words...'

As soon as the beam was replaced, all that was left was to refasten it and replace the fallen materials on it. The construction workers would have taken over at that point in time leaving Kaeru to continue on with his self-betterment speech. Once more he would do another rather theatrical sweep of his arms while smiling which would go against Nagisa's first comment/warming spoken upon her arrival. 'If practice is what he desires than there are many other ways for him to go about it..' Deciding that addressing Nagisa was faster than creating a braille message for Kaeru, Shizuna would hastily scribble out a message and present it to Nagisa for viewing - "How do you think we should deal with him Aburame-san? I feel his mouth needs a bit of a washing." Shizuna was never one for tough punishments or discipline but that doesn't mean she won't offer any form of harsh punishment if the situation required of it. In terms of Kaeru though, Shizuna was thinking more of community service than anything. 'Have to find a way to fix not only his but Kaeru's mannerisms as well...hopefully such fixing won't have to be by my hands...'

Keeping watch of both Nagisa and Kaeru, Shizuna made sure to keep a close eye on the hooded male so he didn't slip off while she and Nagisa conversed. Whatever it was that Nagisa decided on, the boy will have to be there to receive the intended disciplinary act. Nagisa's response was straightforward and at the mention of a pickpocket problem rising within the village irked Shizuna. Trouble within one's own village...not exactly the idle rebuilding process. 'How are we to properly reconstruct ourselves when people within our own village are causing us problems...?' When Nagisa spoke up again about putting Kaeru to work, Shizuna wanted to sigh but she could not find it in her to say no to her senior officer. Besides, she did have some of the other mission slips she signed out. She'll just let Kaeru take Hasaki's place for them and make note to the person that there was a change in personal mid-way through the mission process.

Silently nodding her head in response, Shizuna would quickly scribble out in delicate cursive her response to Nagisa. - "Sure thing Aburame-san, you go ahead and do what you have to do." Turning back to Kaeru, Shizuna decided to try something different in terms of communicating. Gently reaching for Kaeru's hand so as to not alert the male. Shizuna would also allow him a chance to pull away. If he did not, Shizuna would then hold his hand palm up and with her right index finger write out simple characters - "You. Me. Work. Now." Done, Shizuna released his hand and stepped back. Hands ready, Shizuna was prepared to fire away a fast suiton jutsu should the male before her attempt at avoiding work.


((@Jwlz: Sorry, gonna skip ya and move along now.
@Hikaro: I think you're using the wrong format. This one's for Masaki))

Cherry red eyes glancing softly but determinedly up at Kaeru's face, Shizuna saw nothing but a blank face but she sensed dejection from him and knew instantly that work was never something he had in mind. As the young genin once more spoke out in sarcastic manner, Shizuna would inwardly sigh before nodding her head and directing Kaeru towards the village's postal station. Sticking to the edge of the crowds, Shizuna maneuvered as swiftly as she could amongst the crowd for minimal contact.With the constant wave of people making their way in and out of the street made it difficult but Shizuna managed somehow to make it to the postal station without hitting too many people.

Turning to face Kaeru, Shizuna would flip open her sketchpad and quickly summarize the mission details in braille before once more directing Kaeru's hand on it so that he may read it. "Mail Delievery, a rather simple mission. Just need to help out the mail station out with the overflow of letters." Certain that Kaeru had enough time now to read the mission summery, took back her sketchpad and entered the shop. A soft chime would ring at her opening of the door and ignoring the line-up, would make her way to a familiar middle-age male better known as the owner Keisuke-san. Stopping by the side of the counter where he was working, Shizuna waited for him to notice her.

When he finally finished up with a customer, he would flash Shizuna a quick smile and greeting. Having done this missions a great many times now, all Shizuna really had to do was hand over the mission scroll to him and take up a bag with letters to be handed out. Bowing in thanks after the usual pleasantries were complete, Shizune made her way towards the back corner where several sacks of letters were bundled up. Taking up a small and light sack for herself, Shizuna would find another similar one to hand over to Kaeru. Not wanted to remain in such a crowded place, Shizuna hastily headed back outside. There, she would proceed to send Kaeru off on his own for the mission. [Mail Delivery - 1/3]

Dropping the sack, Shizuna grabs her sketchpad and creates another message for Kaeru. "We'll be going our seperate ways, my clone will be following you from behind so don't even think about escaping. Your mail will be going to the Raikage Tower. After delivering there, they may also require you take some to another place as well. That's all there is to it; we'll meet back here when we're both done." Handing him her sketchpad complete, Shizuna would take the time he uses to read to find a water source and create a water clone. Noticing someone bringing out a pail of water to water the decorative plants in front of a store, Shizuna tapped into her chakra and sent it out towards the water source. Molding her chakra with the water, used as little as she could and in moments surprised the poor store owner with a clone appearing from her water pail. Clone bowing low in apology, Shizuna hoped she wouldn't get in trouble for it but she really didn't have much time. The sun was dropping and honestly, she had another two or three missions lined up to complete for the day. Since Hasaki walked out, Kaeru might as well take up his place and not let the signed out missions go to waste. Taking back her sketchpad, Shizuna decided to wait a bit to see if Kaeru had anything else he would like to add or ask before they split.

Smiling in a silent response to Kaeru's grumpy response to her actions, it was obvious the young male had really planned to split the moment the two took off in different directions. 'When it comes to troubled genin, playing it safe is always the way to go.' Shizuna wouldn't get to make such a comment though as Kaeru already began making his way up a building. Letting out a soft sigh as the male's impatience, Shizuna simply urged with her head to let her awaiting clone know to follow. Smiling back at her, Shizuna's water clone would swiftly maneuver around the remaining crowds and scale up the wall behind Kaeru. As this was his mission, the clone would keep a 5m distance between them as to allow Kaeru to have his space but still allow for her to maintain a good visual on him.

Hanging back till the two were out of sight, Shizuna trusted her clone to keep Kaeru in check while he performed his mission. 'And now for me to go out and finish mine,' Mimicking Kaeru, Shizuna would also take to the roof tops as soon as she finished securing her sketchpad around her shoulder and resting against her side like a messenger bag. Left hand wrapped securely around the bag of mail, Shizuna directed chakra to the soles of her running shoes and coated them with her chakra. Jumping from roof to roof, Shizuna would use this time to properly map out her route. 'I'll take this street to there and than make a right...once I'm at the library, I'll give the mail and see if there's any for me to take. If there's none, it would be back to the station to regroup, if there is than I'll plan again from there.' [Mail Delivery - 2/3]

Kensei walked around the the shopping district with his hands in his hoodie pocket. He was mostly window shopping and looking at different items and weapons. The main weapons he saw were swords, which he had mixed feelings about. Swords were a common weapon that were used by a lot of Kumogakure shinobi and they were usually too heavy. If an opponent was extremely precise they could cut off Kensei's fingers to make him drop the sword. "I'd rather punch stuff anyway." Kensei muttered to himself before he started to walk away. Then something caught his eyes. Kensei smiled once he spotted it. He ran inside the store to investigate the item. "small, super light, sharp, and I can block swords with a punch. This weapon is perfect!" Kensei shouted as he tried the knives on and began shadow boxing. "maybe this will give me a reason to learn a kenjutsu."

Kensei took off the trench knives and put them back inside their sheaths before looking at more things to buy. "Lets see...I got the trench knives. I guess it wouldn't hurt to buy a Flak Jacket." Kensei said to himself. That's one of the reasons he came out shopping anyway. Like usual he would get distracted by something minor. walking over to the section he spotted a girl walking around and writing in a sketch pad. I should just mind my business. he thought before looking at the Jackets once again. He picked up the black flak jacket and inspected it for a while before trying it on. His first reaction to wearing it was how light it was. Taking the jacket off he folded it and tucked it under his right arm. He began counting his fingers as he started thinking about his imaginary list of items he needs. "let's see trench knives, flak jacket. I guess chakra pills wouldn't hurt. Maybe some taijutsu scrolls." Once again he only came out for one thing, but ended up buying other stuff he didn't really plan on buying. But it wouldn't hurt to be prepared. The last two missions he went out on he was using up chakra faster than he'd normally do. For now he just continued to walk around the store looking for more items.

Laxus walked into the marketplace, looking around. It was crowded, but it wasn't unable to be navigated. Laxus swept from side to side as he made his way toward the store he wanted. He stopped just outside and a small smirk crossed his face. He didn't even know why, he was simply at the blank scroll store. There was literally nothing in here that would aid him in any way shape or form, aside from writing utensils. He shook his head, the stupid smirk still on his face as he walked into the store.

Once inside the small shop he quickly made his way to the scrolls and picked out a small one. He looked at the varying sizes, and took note of their uses. At the current moment it wouldn't serve to obtain a scroll any larger than a small one. a Tiny one wouldn't be good since it wouldn't allow for him to expand on things in order to explain certain points further, and He couldn't fill out a medium one with just what he saw and what Kensei and Sora could tell him. He'd ask the Raikage if there was a technique to extract information that someone might not have noticed, maybe some sort of hypnotism or other trance like state. He looked around a bit more, taking into account the size and caliber of the shop. It was quaint and served it's purpose. It was kinda nice, not all technologically advanced. It reminded him of home, or at least his old home. He walked across the store, which was only about ten feet, and grabbed a pencil to write with. " I'd like to purchase these. " He said moving slightly and reaching the counter. He placed his purchase on the counter and pulled out fifteen Ryo, placing them in the cashier's hand and leaving the shop. He stood outside for a couple of seconds, opening the scroll and looking at it. " I guess I should start with what I remember. " He said rolling the scroll up and placing it and the pencil into his pocket. He turned and quickly walked toward the training grounds, hopefully he could obtain some semblance of peace and quiet there. Maybe even run into Kensei or Sora when they had some down time to inquire further into what they remembered.

Nagisa frowned, for she knew of a way, but it would drain her chakra reserves very quickly and would only work if... "I am not well practiced in curing people's nightmares." She stated bluntly. If he truly feared snakes and spiders enough that he needed her help, then it would take some time for a proper psychotherapist to fix his problems. "My solution may not work at all, and if I fail your fear will be greater than ever, and you will have nightmares for the rest of your life. Mine is not a pleasant solution." She had no idea whether it would work, it would be very similar to certain psychological methods for curing post traumatic stress, but far worse. Nagisa did not know how to bring his memories to surface, so she would have to create new ones. No, he would not enjoy it at all...
