Naruto: Hidden Village of Steel
Tenten and Satori stepped out of their house to find Arihiro standing there waiting for them.
"What's going on, Arihiro?" Satori asked.
"Nothin' much. Just excited now that we are Chuunins."
"I agree. These vests are something else. However I don't think I'll wear mine all the time. Maybe just on missions or whenever I feel like it. I don't know." Satori said.
"Agreed."
"So, where do you want to eat for breakfast?" Tenten asked.
Arihiro shrugged. The three new Chuunins walked off. A short time later they arrived at a random restaurant and it was a bit busy to say the least.
"I think everybody and their brother's mailman came here today." Satori said.
"It would appear that way." Arihiro replied.
At that moment, Shizune appeared next Tenten. It startled her a bit.
"Arhiro, Tsunade-sama has ordered you to report to her office immediately."
"I'm on my way." Arihiro said. He turned to Satori and Tenten. "Looks like this will have to wait."
"I'll see you later." Satori said.
Arihiro nodded as he and Shizune left. Satori looked at his sister.
"Well, where do you want to eat now?"
Tenten shrugged.
Arihiro arrived at Tsunade's office and Neji, Hinata and Hanako stood in front of Tsunade, who was sitting behind her desk. Sakura stood next to her and Shizune walked over and stood on the opposite side of Sakura.
"What's going on?"
"I'm sending you four on a mission to the Thunder Country, The Hidden Village of Steel to be more precise."
"I don't think I've ever heard of it." Neji said.
"I'm not surprised. It's a village that was abandoned many years ago. There is a clan in the village that is from here and that is the Angirirneko Clan. The reason why I'm not sending Tsuku on this mission is because he's on another mission with Rock Lee, Shikamaru and Chouji and isn't due back til after your departure."
"Is there anything you can tell us about this village?" Hanako asked.
"It is also known as the Cursed Village of Steel. It was technologically advanced for our time before its untimely downfall. Some say it was the scientists of the village not understanding what they were getting into and others say that demonic spirits were released when a mining crew attempted to strip mine a portion of the surrounding rain forest. No one knows for sure." Sakura said.
"Someone has been hanging out with Satori." Arihiro said.
"So what are the mission details?" Hinata asked.
"People have been disappearing and have last been sighted near the Village of Steel. I'm sending you four to find out what is going on. Neji will be the team leader as his first mission as a Jonin." Tsunade said.
The four of them nodded. A short while later they all stood at the gates of Konoha. Satori and Tenten stood with them.
"Be careful, Neji." Tenten said.
"Don't have too much fun without me." Satori said.
Arihiro nodded to him as he and the other three turned around and began their mission.
