Chapter 1 In need of a mission

After the war everything was hectic, villages to rebuild, treaties to sign and deals to be made. The ninja world was not like it used to be, with peace everywhere there were many ninja that felt unnecessary, useless and overrated. The shortage in missions made the ninja restless and many quit and took to the life of a civilian. The ninja that did stay in service fought for the few missions that were left, one ninja in particular was very demanding to get a mission.

"Please Tsunade-baachan! You just have to have a mission for us please!" said a desperate Naruto

"I'm sorry kid but I don't have a mission for you. You know I have been looking for one but I can't find an acceptable mission for team 7" answered Tsunade calmly. She had been looking but had yet to find anything suitable for them since D-ranks were out of the question and most of the higher ranked missions did not suit their team.

"We are not looking for a major difficult mission Hokage-sama. We are simply tired of being stuck in the village" said Sasuke with a monotone voice

Sasuke had come back to Konoha after the war, wanting nothing more than to be a part of the village and help protect it in his brothers' honor. Tsunade had not trusted him one bit and kept an eye on him throughout all of his interrogations and his very long probation time but after she realized that he truly wanted to protect the village she had to let him back on team 7. Tsunade still did not trust him completely but she trusted Naruto to beat him to a pulp if he ever turned again. In fact after Sasukes' probation time he and Naruto had gotten into an all-out fight where both of them came out bloodied. After the fight they had made up and became friends once again with a stronger bod than ever.

"If you are looking for some time outside of the village I might have a mission for you. One of our border patrols has requested some time off and I have been looking for a team to take their place for the time. With Sasukes' sharingan and Narutos' sensory abilities, team 7 is as good as any. If you accept this mission you will meet with the patrol team by the main gate tomorrow at noon and patrol the border between the land of fire and the land of rivers. There are four outposts where you are to report anything you find, when you get to the last outpost you rest till night and then you patrol the border back to the first outpost where you rest till day and repeat. Understood?"

"Hai Hokage-sama" said team 7 happily accepting the mission

"Good. Dismissed!" said Tsunade and team 7 disappeared


Outside Hokage Tower

"Okay team! We finally have a mission and with all the training we have gone through this should not be that difficult" Said Kakashi looking at his team. "Go home and pack everything you may need, we can leave some things in the outposts so packing lightly is not necessary. We meet tomorrow at the main gate at noon and then we go from there."

"Hai sensei!" said Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura together, eager to get out of the village

"Good. We are done for today. Dismissed" said Kakashi and watched his team leave to go home. Looking after them as they left, Kakashi could not help but feel fondness over his team.

'They make a great team' Kakashi thought and proceeded to shunshin home.
