Emi didn't know how long she'd sat on the cliffside. She had so much on her mind; mainly the question of what she wanted to do with herself. She wanted to continue being an ambassador, she wanted to join the ANBU, and she missed being a regular ninja of the Leaf. What could she do? She'd thought about it hard; looking at every angle, and trying different strategies, but nothing came to her. If only there were a way for her to do all three, or two at least. She could probably stand not joining ANBU. She enjoyed her social life. If only Father were still alive. She could have asked him what she should do.
An angry growl pierced her thoughts as her stomach reminded her that she hadn't eaten in a while. Emi stood and leapt from the cliffside, free-falling for a few moments before landing and leaping of a jutting rock in the cliff face. She landed on the Hokage building and continued a leaping path toward the market part of the village.
"Emi!" A voice called from the street below when Emi landed for a moment on a rooftop. She stopped easily and turned to see Ayumi waving at her. She hopped off the roof and landed in front of her sibling.
"Hey, Ayumi. You heading to lunch?" Emi asked.
"That, and I was looking for you." The kunoichi responded.
"Well, now you have both. You found me and I myself was on my way to lunch." Emi smiled. "Care to join me?"
Ayumi nodded and they made their way to the famous Ichiraku Ramen shop. They took their seats and ordered and Emi leaned on the counter. She dropped her casual air and frowned at the countertop. "Hey, Ayumi. I need some advice."
Ayumi looked over at Emi. "Like what?"
Emi fiddle with one of her earrings. "I'm having trouble deciding where I want to go with my life. I love my ambassador job, but I really miss being on a team and running missions. Plus, there's the ANBU thing." She sighed and sat up. "I just can make sense of what I want, or what the best course will be." She smiled. "It's almost like I'm an Academy student, again. Learning the ropes and not knowing what the right thing to do is. I just need an outside opinion on my options."
