A Lovely Mission: Choji Meets Karui

So what's the plan?

She had red hair the blended in with the sunset behind her and amber eyes he was sure could stare into his soul. She was in shape also. The clothes she was wearing were not tight enough to tell, but when she raised her arms to stretch a slim body and defined abs were revealed. "Can I help you?" Choji was unsure where the voice was coming from at first, but he quickly realized it was coming from Karui; the woman he had been staring at.

"Oh... uh... what do you mean?" He said with his arm behind his head and looking away. It was too late for that, but it was worth a try. She did not speak a word, but her eyes were saying a lot. Not to mention the hands on her hips. "Sorry, just making sure I had the right girl...woman... person." He was not looking at anything particular, but he could tell with his peripherals she was still staring.

"I'm your girl. Can we get to it, Akimichi?" Choji blushed. She was his girl, after all. "So, the village is only a few miles up ahead. It is too well guarded to infiltrate and the structure of the buildings won't let us see much. The only way is to go in as civilians and try to find the missing shinobi from within. We'll go in as Husband and Wife." Choji made an expression and hum as if he had not heard that last part. "Husband and Wife. You and me, Akimichi." She was all business and did not notice Choji's awkward coughs. Nevertheless, it was time to get changed for the mission.

Kakashi had already informed Choji that he would be going in undercover, so he had already packed "civilian" clothes. It seems the same went for Karui; she emerged from behind a tree wearing a skirt that reached just above her knees and a blouse that looked like something his mom would wear, except in smaller size. "So should we come up with different names or...?" Choji asked this time making sure to not stare too long. "I don't expect to do much talking with the locals, so just call me Doll, and I'll call you Sweetie. You got that, Sweetie?" Karui brushed her hand down his cheek and under chin. It was meant to be sarcastic, obviously, but her hands were soft and it sent a chill down Choji's spine.

"They say this dictator has a realway with words. The locals are loyal to him and they'll turn us in in a secondif they suspect something. So play your part right, Akimichi." Choji nodded. Itwas time to get started, but for some reason Choji was not feeling the samenerves he normally felt right before a mission. Hell, he had not even had anyof the chips he brought along, which for Choji was definitely weird. Maybe itwas her confidence that was rubbing off on him or maybe the nerves he feltabout missions were being replaced by nerves for this pretty girl. Either way,Choji was going to have to shake them off. This was a mission, not a date
