Office Building
"Think of this as a test of your new body as much as a mission, 0."
Subject 0, Masuna, remained silent as he hung suspended from the ceiling of the office building he had infiltrated. Thusfar he'd been unseen, remaining in the shadowed spaces of the room, traveling through the ventilation system rather than doorways, utilizing his new body to the maximum in an attempt to test everything. He was on a pinpoint assassination mission, his target a single traitor to Sunagakure who worked within this building.
"We're expecting no collateral damage, but if it can't be avoided, show us what that new body can do."
Subject 0 dropped to the ground quietly, expertly catching himself and rolling to a nearby wall. As his shoulder touched the wall, a nearby door slid open and two people entered, chatting amongst themselves. His artificial eye scanned their faces from his shadowy hiding place and confirmed that neither were his target. He waited for them to pass and stood up, casually slipping through the door they had come through. There was nobody in the next room, which appeared to be some sort of meeting room with no other entrances, so he crouched near the door and removed from a pocket his dossier on the target.
"The traitor's name is Bokkaku Gunpi, an accountant who has been funneling money away from Sunagakure and to one of our enemies. We're not sure which enemy yet, so we'll need his files after you've assassinated him."
The file he had before him stated that Gunpi's office should be on the floor he was on currently. He replaced it in the pouch he'd produced it from and leaned over to look through the still open door. Nobody was in the room he'd come from, so he stood up and opened one of the windows of the meeting room, which faced Sunagakure's center, and slipped back out and into the previous room. Staying low, Subject 0 moved from desk to desk, checking name plates and documents for the name Gunpi. Hearing voices approaching as he reached the other side of the room he was in, he once more maneuvered to the ceiling, crawling into an air vent above just as a group of three came into view - one of them being the target, Gunpi.
And that's when Subject 0 came up with a new plan.
As the three passed below him, Subject 0 dropped from the air vent and stood up. Sensing someone behind them, the three men immediately turned in shock to see the shinobi's black-and-red ANBU mask staring them down emotionlessly. Without saying a word, Masuna rushed the three of them - pulling out pair of kunai from his robe. The kunai flashed forward, embedding themselves in the throats of Gunpi's two companions before they could scream, and the assassin grabbed Gunpi by the mouth and throat, cutting off his air supply and halting him from making any noise.
"We have business to discuss, Gunpi."
The assassin reached down to grab the kunai with the hand that wasn't holding Gunpi's throat and then proceeded to drag the accountant to the meeting room, making sure to drip a trail of blood from the kunai to the meeting room. Once there, he released Gunpi's throat and silenced him as the account tried to stammer out a cry of help. "Nobody will hear you, Gunpi, and I'm not interested in killing you. Here, a show of faith." He tossed the bloody kunai to the floor infront of Gunpi, who hastily reached down to grab them - thinking to defend himself no doubt. Gunpi was clearly confused and shocked by the entire situation, but he now had his hands on the murder weapons which was all Subject 0 really needed.
He rushed the confused accountant, grabbing the man's wrist and spinning him around before shoving him out the previously opened window and to his screaming death. His death when investigated would likely be considered a murder-suicide considering he was holding the murder weapons when he went out the window. With a sufficient distraction in place, Subject 0 was now able to freely move about the floor and to Gunpi's office - careful to avoid stepping in any of the blood so as to not leave behind unwarranted footprints - where he gathered all the relevant files. He then exited similarly to Gunpi - out the window. Differently though, he was able to perform the Shunshin technique to travel away rather than helplessly plummeting to his death.
