An received the mission notice a few days ago, discovering her cousin Gurē Ren as her assigned partner. The realization brought a mix of surprise and determination. Standing by the Main Gate on a cold winter morning, the gravity of the assignment hung in the air. The mission, a seemingly routine perimeter patrol, held a C-rank designation, indicating potential threats lurking around the village outskirts.
[break][break]
The bustling Main Gate, even in the early hours, was filled with civilians, merchants, and vigilant shinobi. An, equipped with her uchigatana and fan, was ready for the task. The seriousness of the situation was palpable in the chill of the air, each breath forming a visible cloud. Despite living in the same village, An and Ren's demanding roles kept them apart, making this mission a rare opportunity for both personal and professional connections.
[break][break]
As An stood poised for the patrol, her focus was sharp, knowing that the C-rank classification meant there was more to the assignment than met the eye. The anticipation of encountering potential threats added a layer of seriousness to the reunion with her cousin, turning what seemed like a routine task into a mission that demanded vigilance and precision.
[break][break]
All that was separating An from the outside of the village was Ren's arrival and the mundane paperwork at the gates. "Ren nii-san!" she waved at the tall figure that was approaching her, her eyes sparkling with evident joy and warmth.

An can grow, shape, and manipulate all forms of fungi, including but not limited to yeasts and mold, along with poisonous and non-poisonous mushrooms, thanks to the Gurē clan's KKG. An has the ability to grow fungi on just about any surface. Because An’s genetic makeup is more similar to that of fungi than that of humans, she can use techniques based on Fungi anatomy, such as secretions or enzymes from various Fungi. She can easily generate or grow any part of a Fungi's anatomy from her own body by using chakra to further alter her own cells. Finally, because these techniques are made from her own cells or bodily fluids, such as converting her saliva into a specific Fungi secretion, An is immune to their effects.

As a member of the Gurē clan, An has gained the potential to combine her body with flora and the ground itself because of the similarities in her genetic makeup to fungi. She is able to link her chakra to the underground network of organic matter, which includes plant roots, water veins, and decomposing materials. For example, An can hide in things like trees, shrubs and roots, soil, and so on. Once fused, not only is her presence completely hidden and only felt by those with chakra recognition, but it also allows her to travel within the subterranean web of organic matter up to 1 km before needing to emerge.

An possesses significantly larger and more formidable chakra reserves compared to her peers. This advantage enables her to execute various jutsu without rapidly depleting her chakra, granting her a distinct advantage in combat situations and the capacity to maintain prolonged, intensive chakra utilization. Consequently, she can employ advanced techniques for extended durations surpassing the capabilities of most individuals within her rank.

”Yo! Chibi-An!” Ren called out and waved as he approached his cousin. It was rare for them to be put on a mission together - sometimes he forgot that An was agenin already. Most of his days were spent on work and the ones that weren't would be spent either on some date or in glorious lonesome.

That day Ren was dressed in his shinobi uniform, all in black under his flack jacket, a couple holsters strapped to his legs and a bigger bag of supplies at the back of his belt. His headband was tied around his forehead but his hair covered most of it. It was strange to see him with no flashy outfit. The only accessories he had was a vowed thread bracelet on his wrist.

He came up to An and extended his arms to give her a hug. However, instead of reaching down for the girl, he hugged empty air right above her head. ”Oh? Did you get shorter since I last saw you?” he laughed, amused at his own joke. Being tall came with its perks and one was making fun of shorter family members just as some would make fun of his height.

”How have you been, Chibi-An? Ready for our mission?” he asked in a friendly tone and offered a kind smile. The blonde doctor couldn't imagine much happening on the day but he would still check in on the emotional well-being of his teammate. They should get a move on shortly…

An chuckled at Ren's playful remark about her height. Despite the height difference, An felt a sense of comfort whenever she was around her cousin. She returned his warm smile and replied, "Well, Ren nii-san, maybe you've just grown too tall! But I've been good, thanks for asking. Ready for the mission? Absolutely! And how have you been Ren-niisan?"
[break][break]
As they exchanged pleasantries, An couldn't help but feel a surge of gratitude for the opportunity to work alongside Ren. It was a chance to bridge the gap that their busy lives had created, both professionally and personally. She gestured towards the paperwork at the gate, saying, "Just need to get through the formalities, and we'll be on our way. It's the first time that we teamed up like this. I'm looking forward to it."
[break][break]
The anticipation of the mission's challenges mixed with the joy of spending time with her cousin made An feel a unique blend of emotions as they waited in line to approach the guard post. As they proceeded with the paperwork, she couldn't shake off the sense of purpose that the assignment held. An was determined to approach the perimeter patrol with the same diligence and focus that she did any other task.
[break][break]
With the paperwork completed, An and Ren stepped outside the village gates. As the Main Gate closed behind them, An glanced around at the village outskirts, a crisp winter breeze cutting through the air. The landscape before them was blanketed in a layer of snow, creating a serene yet potentially deceptive calmness. An turned to Ren, her uchigatana and fan at her side, and a determined expression on her face.
[break][break]
"Ren nii-san, which way should we start our patrol – clockwise or counterclockwise?" An inquired, her gaze scanning the horizon.
