Thunder of Darkness, Sister-Pupils at Arms

Akemi and Kimi are sitting beside each other, facing none other than the famed Beauty of the Leaf, Sayuri Uchiha, who had recently taken them in as her pupils in the quest for greater power. The two younger kunoichi were expecting a briefing on the day's training session after breakfast like always, but little did they know today's training would be a more hands-on approach.

"What will we be doing today, Sayuri-sensei?" Akemi asked.

"Ah, yes, about that. Today you'll be leaving the hideout, and go about doing some field work." Sayuri said plainly.

"Field work? So like a mission?" Now Kimi's turn to ask.

"I suppose you could put it that way, yes." Sayuri answered.

"What will this operation entail then?" Kimi asked once more.

Sayuri then started to explain, "Recently, a group of bandits who banded together have been outright burning down the surrounding minor villages, most located in the countryside. I'm honestly surprised the Shinobi Union still hasn't done anything about this."

"So... you want us to go do vigilante work? That's new." Kimi remarked.

"Not exactly." Sayuri replied, her expression neutral, "They're quickly coming closer to the hideout judging from the pattern of their raids. If they learn of the hideout's location, they could become a major threat to our operations if the Shinobi Union manages to capture one of them alive and extort information from them. Hence, I'd like you to remove them from the map for me." Sayuri smirks, "Besides, it's a good way to test how far your training's come."
