    Spoiler:
    JHRm3Mp.pngIt had been about a week, week and a half, since her last mission to scrub paint off of the faces of the Hokage Mountain. It was her turn to learn a thing or two about gate duty. Excitement swelled within her. Sparing no additional time, she had awakened several hours before the start of her morning shift, had worn all of her necessary clothing, ate the necessary amount of food to keep herself nice and energized for the day, and packed a small lunch. She was to work 12 hours at the gate working under the wing of a Chuunin by the name of Hibiki. Upon arriving at the gate, she was full of energy and ready to get going. All of these dull Genin-level jobs were starting to wear on her with how dull and mundane they were. She felt ready to get into some actual action.

    Pleasantries were exchanged between her and Hibiki. So the day began and three hours into the shift, Airi started to feel antsy. She was no longer enthralled and enchanted by the idea of being a gate guard as all they did was watch people enter and check carts like customs. She was used to the cart-checking being that that was her home for 14 years. While she despised living in the back of that cart, it still held a small place in her heart for carts. She tried hard to keep her eyes open and to not yawn. After all, she was one of the first shinobi people would see as they enter the megastructure that was Konohagakure. But damn was this job dull and only 3 hours had passed at this point.

    "Is this normal every day?" she asked as the two just watched people casually enter into the village. Nothing looked suspicious or out of the ordinary. "Yawwwwwp," Hibiki said as he kept a vigilant eye on everyone entering into the village. "But you're a Hyuga right? Gate guarding would be a super simple job for you guys since you can see them tenkatsu, tonkatsu," he said fumbling around with the word tenketsu.

    "Tenketsu," Airi interjected with the man nodding his head. "Yeah, that's it. Oh, it would be easy work."

    It wasn't that she doubted how easy or hard the job was, it was just too bland for Airi. She wanted something a bit more amped up, something a bit more involved. She respected the gate guards for keeping order and peace at the gates, but this just wasn't the job for her.

    JHRm3Mp.png"I mean, does anything exciting ever happen at the gates? Like ever?" she asked. She placed a hand upon the rails next to the guard shack. "Oh yeah, plenty. We'd get something like a runaway ox entering or leaving the village so we have to stop the animal so they don't trample people to death. We also stop foreign shinobi from entering to figure out what they want in our village. Civilians are fine, but we can't let other country's weapons inside of the village, nawimean?" the man asked. While all of that sounded dandy to Airi, she really just wanted to fight something.

    Several hours had gone by, Airi ate her lunch and swapped places with Hibiki so they could eat. A lot of nothing continued to happen other than checking a few carts, questioning a few foreign shinobi, greeting shinobi that had returned from abroad. It was the same-old-stuff for a little while. Around 5pm, the lines entering the village have started to slow down to a crawl while those trying to leave before the bells started to sound off. Her eyes opened wide and everyone at the gate, mostly those leaving the gate turned their head skyward towards a guard-tower overlooking the wall. The crackling of life could be heard from the Gate Guard's headset.

    -/- Echo-Overwatch4 to Echo-Gate-Alpha, we have a burning cart approaching the gate at high speeds -\- the voice said before silencing. Jumping to action, Hibiki turned to look towards Airi with a big grin on his face. "Well, you wanted action, let's get to action. We need to get everyone leaving to move away from the gate. It's probably a bomb cart," Hibiki said with Airi almost offended that someone would do that to a cart.

    Hysteria started to build as the burning cart became clearly visible from the gate. Panic started to settle in as people started to lose their mind. With a big growl, Airi balled her hands into a fist and got to action. Without even asking, she started putting her hands on the people to direct them away from the gate and back in closer into the village. The people further ahead already scattered with other carts going off-road to avoid this bomb-cart. Once the gate was cleared, the gates began to slowly close with the cart getting closer and closer to the gate.

    Hibiki appeared in front of Airi. "Good job. Now keep everyone calm. I'm going to go stop that cart from getting too close to the gate. It might be there to protect us, but we can't let too much damage come to the gate. Keep everyone calm, alright?" he asked as Airi nodded with a bewildered look on her face.

    JHRm3Mp.pngHer longing to get into the action, go beyond the gates to help Hibiki was strong with her. The screams of panic, from behind her started to get louder as they could see the cart approaching fast enough to where it would actually make it in through the gate before the gate finished closing. A small explosion could be heard coming from the cart with a pop happening, causing the cart to bounce a little. Before the cart got too close to the gates, a sudden wall of stone went up, separating the horrified oxen from the burning cart. The sound of maniacal laughter could be heard before a loud crash and fiery explosion came from the cart, causing airi to stumble backwards before a wall of heat began to enter through the gate. The Stone Wall stopped the vast majority of the explosive power, but the thermal energy was still able to get through. As the thermal energy approached, Airi turned her body towards it and leapt towards it. Both of her hands were placed at her hips before thrusting her palms forward. "Hakken Kyuusho!" she shouted out before releasing vacuum pressure forward to meet with the rush of thermal energy. The Vacuum Palm Wall struck the thermal energy and caused a loud popping to be heard, causing a burst of wind to explode from the meeting, strong enough to knock Airi upon her back. Enough to knock her out.

    "Ey.. ke up. Hey. Hey," the voice said before Airi felt a pinching at her cheeks, which woke her up. "Ow ow ow!" she said before opening her eyes to see Hibiki with a big smile upon his face. Her eyes were still a pale shade of white before quickly fading back to their usual blue color. "Guard Duty is still kinda boring?" he asked with a chuckle before Airi was helped back up to her feet. "Either way, you did a good job back there. Did exactly what I asked of you. And thanks to you, nobody got hurt," he said as Airi turned to look back at the people that were behind her, answering to a sound of thunderous applause and several 'thank yous'. She turned to look back towards Hibiki and gave off a bit of a chuckle. "Oh, I guess it's not that bad sometimes, I guess. But don't think I'm going to spend my time working here though." Responding with a chuckle. "Well, you're shift's done, go home."

    "Until next time," she said with a big grin. "Yup," Hibiki replied. "Yup."
