Katsuko blinked as she caught her folder. What was with all the hating? This guy went through mood swings faster than her mother did during her "time of the month". She scanned the bottom right corner of her mission brief, lips pursing as she realized...

Agent Ueno, you are to monitor Agent Hyuuga to ensure that the Hyuuga bloodline is not compromised in any way during the mission...

...That besides blowing things up on this mission, she was basically a glorified babysitter.

Damn. Well, she couldn't blame the man, then. Hyuuga had been here longer than she had. Being "monitored" by a new ANBU had to sting.

His abrupt change in manner and his cordial introduction caught her off guard for only a second.

"Ah...well, just call me Katsuko. Honorifics take too much work. And it looks like I'll be needing your help after this mission--this is my first day at ANBU. Sorry we had to meet like this, though."

There, no room for him to get insulted, right? It'd be a pain in the ass to piss her medic off on the first day.
