Shikamaru Nara stood before Shizune with a look of boredom. Today Kurenai had handed him over to Shizune to do a mission, which was just a drag as he was going to play Shogi with Asuma. Still, it wasn't like he could argue, as it was, Shizune was close to Tsunade so he'd get wailed on if he didn't comply. Stifling a yawn he accepted the scroll and unfastened the red ribbon around it and read the contents slowly. Sure enough, he was expected to make a trip to the sand and meet with some Temari. "This is such a drag," Shikamaru stated, "but whatever I guess."
Shikamaru was under orders from the Hokage herself, so, he was given little of a team, besides himself, and no Sensei to guide him. Sealing the letter he set off on the long journey avoiding enemy contacts by hiding. The sand village lay up ahead and as he came to the gate he memorized the contents of the scroll in which it stated he would meet this Temari at the sand gate. So, here he was, a long distance from home...and he had to meet this Temari.
I hope its a guy, he thought, I see enough girls in my village as it is. Placing his hands behind his head he blew out some air from his mouth and found a yawn slowly crawling up his throat. I don't want to be rude, he thought, still...I've been holding in this yawn since this morning. Finally letting in he yawned and rubbed at his eyes sleepily.

Temari floated above Sunagakure atop her giant fan. Up high on the wind she looked down at the village with a small smile. This was her place of peace, up there among the birds. She felt like she could leave her problems behind. Problems like her little brother, Garra. Garra., the name left a bad taste in her mouth. It wasn't that she hated Garra, no matter what he did she couldn't really hate him. It was just that he was just. . . insane and blood thirsty. A shudder ran up her spine, it unnerved her that her little brother could kill her at any moment and not feel a damn thing. She shook her head to clear her mind. She refused to be down when she was up so high. Besides she had a mission. She was supposed to escort some Wave Ninja punk around the village and eventually to the Kage.
She looked down, studying the sands, searching for the ninja. Gliding lower she saw a messy head of black hair. With a soft rustle she dropped out of the sky and landed behind him. "Are you the Wave Ninja Kazekage-sama is expecting?" she asked as she looked him over. He was of medium build, height, and looked like he was going to fall asleep where he was standing. Nothing really caught her eye, except for his dark intelligent eyes.

Shikamaru was about to sit down to take a nap when he heard the sound of someone landing behind him. Wow, that was fast, he thought fighting another yawn. "Yes I am...and you are...a girl?" Just great, he thought, I have to deal with a girl. What is so great about them anyway? All they do is nag and complain, then they get that scary look that you can't fight. Boy this is a drag, why did Tsunade send me here instead of Naruto? I mean, he has nothing to do but run about complaining of boredom...then he goes and paints the statue of Tsunade with snot running down her nose and a mustache that looks like some evil comical relief guy. I have stuff to do...stuff that matters to me. Oh well, I can't exactly fight this mission, now that I'm here and all.
"When does the tour begin?" Shikamaru asked as he ran a hand through his dark hair. The sooner this was over, the more chances he would get to take a nap and watched the clouds pass by. Seriously, this place was filled with dirt and to top it off, he heard rumors about this Gaara and he didn't want to be around when he was. Though, seeing how she was a sand ninja, he wasn't about to bad mouth one of her own. There were many flaws to their camp, so, he just stood there with his hands in his pockets.

As Temari saw his obvious disintrest she rolled her eyes. This was going to be a long visit. She could tell that already. She folded up her fan with a audible mettalick click and secuered it on her back. she made to walk forward then stopped at hearing his words and disappointment at her being female. "Excuse me? What. Did. You. Say?" she enunciated her words carefully letting him know her displeasure and irritation at the lazy ninja.
She stepped closer to him and poked her finger to his chest, "I don't want to escort some no-name from a worthless village around just as much as you don't wanna be here. please, don't make this hard for us both!" She strode past him without even looking at him further and headed for the huge Sunagakure gates. She nodded at the guards and unfurled her fan, taking to the skies, floating over the stone walls. she landed on the top and looked down to her guest. "Meet you on the other side Baka."
And with that she dropped from the wall on her fan. Once she was there she thought about her guest. There was something about him that irritated her more than other males. Maybe his disintrest? Either way it was something, and the thoughtful intuitive, curious side of her awoke and was eager to figure out what it was.
