Naruto woke up and yawned. He looked outside and it was dawn. He eat breakfast then he went to the sparring ring in his backyard. He saw Neji and Rock Lee there sparring already. Naruto watched as they fought that was until Neji won.

Neji and Rock Lee looked at Naruto and nodded a "Hey". Naruto nodded back.

"Hey can I spar with you guys?" asked Naruto.

Neji and Rock Lee looked at each other for a second then they decided that Rock Lee should spar Naruto.

"Sure Naruto you can spar with Rock Lee." said Neji.

Naruto looked at Rock Lee and saw that he was ready to fight. So Naruto and Rock Lee got in their fighting stances. But before they could start Kakashi popped up right in the middle of them.

"Hey Kakashi-sensai can you move we're sparring here." said Naruto.

"No can do Naruto you, Neji, and Rock Lee are being summoned by the Hokage to start a mission." said Kakashi reading his book.

Naruto, Neji, and Rock Lee looked at each other then they raced to Hokage's place. When they arrived they saw Sakura and a new girl there looking at the Hokage.

They looked at the boys walking in and the new girl looked confused because she only knew Sakura and thought they could handle it.

"You guys finally showed up" sighed Hokage.

"What do you want us to do?" asked Naruto.

The Hokage looked at Naruto and she couldn't believe that he grow so much.

"Well I need you for a mission with these girls" said Hokage

"Well we know Sakura but who is the other girl?" asked Neji

"O yea you guys haven't meet. Well this is K.C. the second person in this village with a demon in her." said the Hokage pointing towards K.C.

Naruto and Neji waved at her while Rock Lee shook her hand.

"Ok your mission is top priority. It's an A-rank mission." said a dead serious Hokage.

"Hell ya" yelled Naruto.

"Well then. Neji will be replacing Kakashi on this mission and you guys will have to show the ropes to K.C." smiled Hokage.

Naruto was smiling the whole time she was talking. K.C. looked at Naruto because she thought he was on the weird side but thought he was really cute and really hot.

"Ok well you guys leave in an hour so start packing." waved Hokage.

Everyone bowed and went to get packed. But when K.C. stepped out she saw everyone leaving her behind. She really didn't mind but she knew that she couldn't count on anyone. But when she walked outside everyone was out there talking. K.C. looked at them and walked right on by.

"Hey K.C. wait up!" yelled Sakura.

K.C. looked back at Sakura.

"What's wrong you just walked right by us?" asked Sakura

"I thought that you guys wouldn't want to talk to me" sighed K.C.

"And why would you think that?" asked Sakura.

"I'm kind of like Naruto expect I can't control it," sighed K.C.

Sakura looked at her as she started backing away. She left K.C. standing there as she ran back to the others.

"Hey Sakura I thought you were getting K.C." asked Neji

"I was but I think we should ask for someone else."

Everyone was shocked as Sakura suggestion.

"Why?" asked Rock Lee

"Because she's dangerous to us and the village. I can't even believe that Hokage let her stay here." yelled Sakura.

"How would she be dangerous?" asked Naruto

"Because she can't be trusted with that thing inside her."

"So she's like me." Naruto pointed out.

"No she's not like you she's…"

"Face it Sakura you still don't trust me as long as I have this thing inside me." yelled Naruto

Sakura looked down when she realized what she just did. And when she looked up at Naruto he was already looking for K.C.

When Naruto found her, she was sitting on a grass hill looking at the sky.

"Hey K.C." said Naruto

"O hey Naruto do you want me to move?" asked K.C. looking down.

"No but can I sit here?"

"It's up to you."

Naruto sat down next to K.C. and started talking to her.

"I'm sorry about what Sakura said to you"

"It's no big deal I get it all the time."

"But you shouldn't be use to it K.C."

"Naruto you don't understand most of us don't have friends or a village that cares. We're alone and we get use to it."

Naruto looked at K.C. and felt really sorry for her. Because he now understood ehy other people don't understand him. Naruto was thinking about his friends and started thinking if they really liked him for him or are they just using him for his power.

"Starting to rethink your friends now"

Naruto looked up to see K.C. smiling at him. Naruto blushed and turned his head at the same time so she wouldn't see but she saw anyway. K.C. laughed at Naruto because she thought that he was really cute. But before she could say another word Sakura popped into the picture.

"What 's up Sakura?" asked Naruto.

"Why would you let that demon near you." yelled Sakura

"Because she's my friend and not a demon" Naruto yelled back.
