You were aware that the mission Lady Tsunade sent you and Yamato on was going to take a while.

It was just a simple mission that happens to take multiple days to complete. And yet, you and Yamato were the only shinobi assigned on this mission. The two of you are capable shinobi, right? It couldn't be THAT bad.

You knew Yamato well enough— or you'd like to think you do, so it's not completely awkward to a point where your hours were filled with a constant awkward silence while the two of you walked through the forest.

Soon, the sun began dipping lower and lower under the horizon, gradually enveloping the world in the dark of night. The two of you found a safe and suitable place to set up camp for the time being and rest up.

There was an awkward silence that filled the air as the two of you sat around a campfire, taking in its warmth.

Yamato awkwardly cleared his throat. "The forest sure is silent. So uhh... Do you want to hear a ghost story?"
