Cirrus and Takara had been summoned to the Hokage's office. Upon entering, they would notice that the atmosphere was very different than normal. They had been offered seats, and oddly enough, a small cup of sake to make this go easier.
"Cirrus, Takara," Tsunade said. "You are ninjas, and for every ninja, there comes a time when a mission calls for you to take a person's life." Tsunade put her hand on a scroll. "This is an A-rank mission that I have here for you two. In fact, you two were requested by name. But I must ask you, are you able to kill for the sake of a mission?"

Cirrus sniffed his sake and then choked when he heard what Tsunade had said.

Takara had sat down, but politely declined the sake. Takara stiffened and paled but her voice was steady when she asked a single question, "Who?"

Tsunade took a deep breath. "I believe you're both familiar with the person who is hiring you for this mission," she said and opened the scroll just far enough for Cirrus and Takara to see the name of the hiring party. It was Kasso, of the Sand. Tsunade gave no further clues or hints, waiting to gage their reactions...

Cirrus said nothing, staring a little off to the side.

"Excuse me, I just hallucinated, could you please repeat that?" certain she had completely misheard Tsunade she said blinking up blankly.

"Kasso, of the Sand," Tsunade said flatly. "I believe you have both had a meeting or two with him already. But that is not the point. He has paid a handsome sum of money to this village to hire the two of you for a mission. Now then. The question remains; can you kill in the name of this village?"

"It depends who we're killing and why," Cirrus stated bluntly.

Takara nodded, completely agreeing with Cirrus. "I have killed to protect my family and my people before, as you know, and if necessary, I would do so again," she said as blunt as Cirrus.

Tsunade straightened up in her seat and looked a little meaner that she would have to say this. "Who is whomever I say, and why is because I give you the mission to do it." Tsunade rolled down the rest of the scroll so that each of them could see the name on the contract of who was to be killed; Kazeitami Yuki...

Cirrus stood up and turned to leave the room.

Takara's face turned stony and she held out a hand to stop Cirrus and another to Tsunade, for the mission scroll. "I can do whatever I have to," she said in a deadly serious tone that sounded as though she wanted to kill someone.

"Good," Tsunade replied, glad they had an understanding. She placed the scroll in Takara's hand and turned in her chair so that she was facing out the window. "I'll understand if you need to say goodbye first, but this shouldn't take you two very long to finish..."

"Tell me, are you Kages so all so corrupted?" Cirrus mumbled softly, not looking at Tsunade. "Taking a hired request from a killer to destroy one of our own?" He wanted to say so much more but kept his mouth shut. He wasn't going to cause any more trouble for himself or Takara unless provoked, but hatred and anger made him tremble in Takara's grip.

"Cirrus, not now," Takara said tightly. She gave a short bow to Tsunade and the stalked out of the room as though she owned it.
