Setting
Surprisingly the rain had stopped within Hi no Kuni, and Kuma the farmer who lived on the outskirts of the village thought it would be a perfect time to hire some shinobi to help him on his farm. Since it had been raining for three weeks the ground was extremely mushy and the air was quite humid.
Though Kuma was a good farmer the weather and his old age combined made for a very unmanageable land. Kuma owned over 13 miles of land and which most held area for crops to grow such as corn and cabbage but due to rain season the crops haven't been doing so well and most of them have died. On the northern side of the farm is a large barn where all of Kumas animals are kept such as his cattle, sheep and chicken. On to the east lays an old house where Kuma himself stays along with his small grandchild Teo that he takes care of due to his parents dying during the war.
Kuma hired 6 Genin and one Chunin to oversee the mission that he had been requested by Kuma himself. This large squadron consisted of, -Sartobi, a lazy and lax chunin who rarely takes his job seriously. -Zeno, an 11 year old Uchiha boy know it all. -Terisa, a 9 year old follower. -and of course you.
Mission Sartobi and Zeno have been assigned to feeding an accounting for all the animals and you all have been assigned to seeding the land to hopefully make crops grow in this coming up season change.
Problem Zeno is a problem starter and everyone knows this from the academy, and Sartobi seems to wander off from his assignments often. Leaving young genin unsupervised.
Start You and the others are all currently out in the fields as the sun is blazing down on you all. Each one holding a large bag of seeds and dropping the seeds into the pre made holes. This has been going on for 4 hours thus we start the rp!
Active Characters (LOCKED) Yumi (Genin) Torshiro (Genin) Aki (Genin) Santara (Genin)

Kei stands in the field his hands on his knees trying to catch his breath and covered in mud but with a big smile on his face. "Darnit i can.. *gasp* do this faster! Lets Goooooo!" He dashes off again in an attempt to plant seeds in world record time, mud splattering in his wake, and indeed might be making a little bit of a mess of it. It doesn't take very long until he grinds back to a halt. "Alright! *pant* We keep this up and we will be done *pant* waaay ahead of schedule! Hey does anyone have any snacks? I could go for a meal right about now."

Santara stands at the end of the field. Just finishing planting the last of this row's seeds. "Phew. It is exhausting doing this. How long has it even been?" Santara takes out her water skin and takes a long drink before starting on the next row. Spending time making sure each seed is planted correctly. When she finishes the row, she takes another drink and eats a food pill. "Here" she says, throwing Kei a small pouch filled with a few food pills made by Santara's grandmother

◄ Toshiro Hagane - Konoha Archer
Sweating beneath the unforgiving noonday sun Toshiro stands up from his hunched over position and wipes his forehead with the back of his hand as he took a moment to enjoy the mercifully cool breeze. Returning to his task he dropped the last few seeds from his hand into the last of the prepared openings. He let out a content if slightly tired sigh as he raised his arms above his head and stretched out his back until it adjusted with a satisfying pop.
"Take it easy Aki, we'll be done soon enough either way. Better to take your time and do it once than to rush through it and risk having to do parts of it over." Toshiro chuckled with a gesture to the even more disturbed earth that his fellow genin had torn up with his sandals. "But I know what you mean." The youth commiserated as he reached for his water canteen and taking a generous swig before pouring a small amount over his forehead and hair to help him cool himself off.
"I think we've been at this maybe four and a half to five hours, hard to say. I'm just glad that we're done the tilling now." Toshiro replied as he grabbed another handful of seeds from the pouch he had tied to his belt and began once more to methodically drop them into their prepared wells of soil.

YUMI TOMANA ● demonic artist ●
Yumi Smiled as the hard labor reminded her of visiting her own grandparents when she was younger. Though terribly exhausted from the heat and having to hold up a large bag for the past 4ish hours she remained in a calm mood as she pictured her grandparents still being alive an well.
Yumi started to chuckle as she watched Torshiro dump the water on to his head, "Its not that bad!" calling him out as a wimp for not being able to shoulder the heat. She then removed some of the sweat dripping from her forehead with her left arm sleeve.

"Hey this is a form of training! Also uh, whoops? You don't think they will notice that right?" Aki looks back at his row and chews on the food pill. "Awesome! Thanks Santara-san. "Just give me ten minutes and I will finish this whole row!" And Aki dashes off again intent on trying to do just that.
(Rip autocorrect changed my name to Kei xD )

SARTOBI Half a mile away Sartobi could be seen walking off of the farm in the most casual manor. Since the team had started working he had no hand in the success of the mission. In fact Sartobi had no real desire to be here in the first place, it is hot and muggy outside and most of all he hates being a shinobi. "Fuck those annoying brats." He said in his head as he walked away from his duties and went off to a local bar to grab a drink or two.

Santara, finishing off 3 more rows before stopping looks around. "Just how big is the farm" She says as she sits down, exhausted. "I wonder how many people said no to this job" noticing Sarutobi walk away "Where is Sarutobi going?". Annoyed at this, she gets up and stabs her katana in the ground. "Ergh... Well, let's get going" she picks up the sword and plants another seed in the new hole. She continues this process for the next few roles

◄ Toshiro Hagane - Konoha Archer
Toshiro looks over to Yumi as she giggles at him and and tells him it;s not that bad even as she wipes the sweat from her own brow. In response he dangles his water canteen teasingly from it's strap and swings it back and forth. "Does that mean you don't want any?" He asked teasingly in a sing-song voice and playful smile. Turning back to look at Aki at his declaration he had to chuckle and just shook his head. "I'm sure it won't be an issue, and if it is we'll just have to make do and fix it....?" He trailed off into a query as he looked into the direction Santara was staring off into.
"And there goes Sartobi-san walking off the job... how the hell he made it chunin I'll never know." He said outright with a scowl even as he turned back to his work. "C'mon. We should finish this and go check to make sure He and Zeno have actually done their job as well." He sighed once more as he began dropping seeds into the appropriate space, the young genin grumbling under his breath about the unreliability of their supervisor.

Santara, giving up on sowing seeds, slumps on the ground. "Damn it's so hot. How much longer will we be here for?" Santara takes a sip from her water skin and eats her final food pill of the pack. Santara weaves the hand sign to cast out her shadow and back in again, making a shadow puppet show on the ground infront of her.

After having the Chunin supervisor pointed out glares at his dissappearing back, his hands curled into tight fists, all signs of his previous smile disappearing Aki swears quietly. "... dissapointment to the leaf... waste of space ...better have a good excuse" Aki then returns to working if rather slower and more violently than before.

Finally finishing her slected area, Santara sits down. "Damn I've had enough of this heat." Santara takes out her Katana and begins sharpening it, the blade dulled as it has been used for planting seeds for the past few hours. Looking outward of the farm, Santara sees the dense forest that the team walked through to get here. "Bet it's cool in there" Santara says as she takes a few more sips from her waterskin

Yumi sighs as she sees Sortobi leaving the feild to go do is own thing."I wonder why he still a shinobi, if he doesn't care about the village and the safety of the people." Yumi looks around to see that most of her squad has given up on planting but she decides to continue with her path of planting. "Just because Sortobi gave up doesn't mean we can, you guys need to get up and finish what we started so we can go home too." Yumi says to everyone that seems to be short changing the mission.
Yumi shakes her head and she looks at how much further they had to go. At least another half a mile for all of them on this field and they'd be done. Seeing how close they were from which they first started she began to smile and it turned into determination to finish first.

Aki looks up and the team. "You know there has got to be a faster way of doing this. We are ninja after all!... On a side note we really should check up on Zeno. He was with 'him' in the barn was he not? If hes been left on his own this spells nothing but trouble. Don't know about you guys but failing a mission at this level..." Aki looks back in the direction of the farmhouse almost expecting it to be on fire by now, luckily there are as of yet no signs of smoke.

◄ Toshiro Hagane - Konoha Archer
Toshiro just shakes his head as he returns to his task, more unmindful of the sweat dripping from his brow now that the task of planting the seeds was nearing it's finish. Turning to Yumi seeing as she returned to working on her own plough line next to him he had to hold back a vindictive grin. "Well atleast this can always go into the report. If this is how he treats his duty he's got to have a bit of a record built up. Who knows, maybe this will be the straw to break the horses back." He offered even as he took care to ensure his task is done properly, placing each seed into its own divet in the ground. Though he also had to nod his head as Aki spoke and looked to the barn as well. "It might be wise to at least check up.... Uchiha-san might get defensive of it though. He's not the ....easiest to work with." Toshiro said with a grimace, recalling Zeno and his behaviour from their time in the Shinobi Academy. "Santara-san, since you're taking a bit of a break already would you mind looking in on it? He might be less hostile to a member from another clan? I can help you finish your plot in return when you get back." He offered with an apologetic smile.
