Adjusting

Mito was soon left alone. She was waiting to be discharged. The med-nin was very kind and came soon even with all papers filed out only needing Mito hands signature. The Anbu appeared quickly after that. Mito used her henge jutsu she didn't change her appearance that much. She only changed color and length of her hair. She was now brunette with hair just over her shoulders and without her usual bangs. She followed the Anbu, she did pay attention to her surroundings, but her surroundings didn't pay any attention to her. While this was good, she felt nostalgic. She remembered her last life how nobody cared for her nobody noticed her.
When she came in her new apartment. It wasn't special in any way posible. The kitchen was normal size. Everything was normal. It was comfortable, but she knew that she wouldn't spend a lot of time here. It reminded her of everything she wanted but she moved on, right she couldn't just think about her past now. She checked the apartment it was well equipped, it had food in the fridge. She found her bed, while it wasn't like that one in Kiri, she could sleep on it better than on the forest floor. However she did need to buy new clothes. She asked Anbu :" Can you show me the way to Konoha market. I need some new clothes. Don't worry I have money." I did win few bets in Kiri after all. Bets were always who would win between Kiri genin. Thankfully I had a lot of Intel.
Anbu :"This way please. Did you plan on buying casual clothes or clothes for training." he asked when we exited my apartment. We both were using henges and looked as father and daughter, which was weird in my opinion.
I answered :"Well both, but I will buy more for training purposes."
Anbu then said:" We shall firstly buy you some casual clothes, because they will soon close, shinobi market works slightly longer."
Mito asked :" Why is that so, isn't it unfair to the civilians."
Anbu answered :" Well it is, but shinobi do have to buy things at unexpected times to prepare themselves for missions. "
Mito agreed.
When she came to the market she saw Rin, but she couldn't greet her. Rin did look at them like she knew something was wrong with dou. Mito then tried few outfits. She didn't have any sense for fashion. So her Anbu guard almost died trying not to laugh. That made them look more suspicious. Rin did glanced at their discretion to see who made those sounds, she regreted her decision immediately. The girl looked horrible, disgusting. She had to help poor girl. Rin came towards Mito and poked her saying:" Do you need any help with choosing outfits."
Mito answered honestly :"Yes, you see don't understand fashion, it isn't excuse, but since childhood I always wore boys clothes, because the person who was in charge of me only had those kind of clothes."
Rin was shocked and looked at the girls father, or she assumed he was.
Mito looked at direction of Rin eyes:" Ah you seem to misunderstan something, he isn't one that took care of me. "
Rin was confused, were those two family or were they friends.
Anbu said:" we need to choose it quickly before they close, after that we will go to the shinobi market." he said to Mito, who started moving.
Rin was surprised they were shinobi but they didn't carry themselves like one.
Rin found few of suitable outfits, in which Mito did look presentable. She was even more confused when the girl paid it with her own money. So they weren't family. She had to ask:" What is your name. I am Nohara Rin."
Mito panicked for few seconds in her mind and answered :" My name is Mito, nice to meet you Nohara - San" Rin was now even more confused even most of civilians have a surname. Were these two not from here. But the older guy was familiar with the market here. So she asked:" Mito-San are you new here."
Mito looked at her embarrassed :" Do I look that out of place." then she turned to the guy :"You should have told me, what is use of using…" she trailed of, she managed to stop herself.
Rin was now even more confused. And was going to ask more questions when Anko and Kurenai came from shinobi market and greeting Rin. Rins attention moved to them, and Mito with her Anbu guard successfully managed to get away.
When she was picking her outfits for training, she knew what she was doing because you couldn't get it wrong she picked a lot of black pieces of clothes. She didn't want to reveal a lot of her body. After all she still wasn't used to her knew body. She bought lots of tracksuits, they were all black, she bought few shorts and t- shirts. The tracksuits weren't special, but Mito decided to put on them Uzumaki symbols. At the end of her shopping she had her hands full of stuff, and her wallet was empty. She then asked Anbu to take her home it was getting dark. Well it was around 6 afternoon.
Rin was talking with Anko and Kurenai, they had a lot of catching up, when she realized that the Mito was gone. Rin asked:"Did you guys see that girl I talked to."
Anko:" the one with weird father, I geuss they left as soon as you started to talk with us."
Rin then said :"Those two are so strange."
Kurenai who liked all kind of stories asked:" How so."
Rin :" The girl is actually a shinobi but she and her escort were so relaxed, i know she was from outside of village but the person behind her wasn't. I don't know i felt like I meet her before. "
Kurenai asked for more information. Rin told them everything she knew.
Mito started organizing her clothes in the closet. She wanted to train so bad, but she knew Hokage wanted her to train on team 7 grounds. Thankfully they schemed and didn't say anything about training grounds. So she wasn't bond by time. She decided to rest now.
