Disclaimer: Uh. I don't own Naruto, nor any of its characters. XD howeeever, the made-ups are mine. '

A/N: My first stab at a Naruto fanfic. Fwee, I hope you enjoy

"Banished into 'IRL'!"

By train-to-nowhere aka yotarou'

"You're late," Sasuke muttered.

Kakashi, who had POOFed out of nowhere next to Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura, smiled. "Well…" he said. "I was – "

"Lost on the road to life?" quipped Naruto. They were all already used to his excuses by now.

But this time, however, was different. Kakashi shook his head with a small smile on his long, manly face. "No, no. I was talking to the Jounin Council, actually, about a new mission that they want you three to do."

"NEW MISSION?" Naruto said, with bright eyes. "SUGOIIIIIIII!"

Sakura groaned. "Please don't let it be another Level-A Jounin one…"

"Sakura, you are correct!" Kakashi said. "It is INDEED a Level-A ranking mission."

Sasuke watched, withdrawn and silent as his usual Sasuke-y self. "Well? Are you going to tell us what it is or chit-chat?"

Kakashi looked at Sasuke. "Patience is a virtue," he said. "But this mission can't wait long, so I'll get to the point." Turning around, he shuffled with his pockets and, facing them again, whipped out a huge map with one hand, and in his other hand held stapled sheets of paper with the words "TOP SECRET" on it.

They all watched with amazement as they stared at the ridiculously huge map.

"First!" he shouted, pointing to a blob connected to the many other coloured-blobs, "You must go HERE." His finger was pointed on a long, funny-looking colored shape.

The gang could only stare with disbelief. "What… is that?" muttered Sakura.

"It's…" He giggled in a very un-Kakashi-like manner. "Cauli-flornia!"

Sasuke scoffed. "All right, so we're going to this unknown village then, huh? What next?"

"You go through a secret portal, where you will meet 'Frog-man.' I have to warn you about 'Frog-man,' though. 'Frog-man' must only be addressed as 'Mr. Frog-man,' and if you don't… well, then, you're frog-meat!" He looked very serious when he said the word 'frog-meat.'

Naruto quivered with excitement. "YAAAAAY!" he shouted, punching the air. "Let's go then!"

"…I'm not done yet." After a moment's silence, Kakashi continued. "Once you meet your contact, you will be instructed by him what to do next. All I can tell you right now is that you will have to work under-cover at a 'Lincoln Valley Highschool.' Please don't blow your cover."

Sakura blinked. "Under…COVER?"

"Mm."

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!" they all screamed. Sakura, screaming out of half-joy to work with Sasuke on yet ANOTHER mission, partly because she was Sakura, and Sakura sucks at almost everything that has to do with ninjas, except her … brains. Naruto was screaming partly because he had no idea how to work under-cover [nor did he know what it meant], and partly because it was a mission, and, well, he loved missions because it gave him yet ANOTHER chance to prove himself better than his long-time rival, Sasuke.

And, Sasuke… he wasn't even screaming. We just tricked you into thinking that. Because you know, that would be very un-characteristic on our part if we had him screaming…

Anyway.

While the two were screaming, Kakashi sighed, and proceeded to his Cool Ninja Blast-you-into-outer-space move, where he would simply take hold of the three with his super-awesome Jounin-Kakashi strength and kicked them straight up into the air, past houses, past trees… until they all fell up into the secret portal Kakashi was talking about. How convenient.

The three landed quite unceremoniously on their bottoms. Sasuke pointed to a banner hung up on a building, and read:

WELCOME TO LOS ANG –

"EEEEEEEEEEEE!" squeaked [not screamed] Sasuke. A car was coming right at him. The three were in the middle of… A STREET! IN THE SUBURBS IN LOS ANGELES. CROWDED, CROWDED LOS ANGELES. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…h.

What will happen next? ONLY TIME WILL TELL! MUAHAHAHAHA!
