Sakura's POV
I don't like the sky lately. Before I could always look at it and feel at peace, but now it just makes me feel afraid. Something is going to happen soon, very soon by the looks of it. I wonder if Sasuke and Naruto are getting the same vibe. I just hope…
"Sakura!" Sasuke woke me from my thoughts, "Have you even been listening?"
"What-well-yeah."
"Geez, what the hell is this? "
"Well-um, Naruto is sleeping too."
"You're right Sakura, Naruto is sleeping, in fact he's been sleeping since I began to talk," he walked over toward the drooling Naruto, and dropped a stack of books right next to him.
"Where's the bastard who's attacking us? Don't worry Sakura, I'll protect you. Now come out you coward and show yourself." Naruto went quiet for a few seconds, "Wait a sec. Hey guys, where's the intruder?" Sasuke took one of the books and hit him on the back of the head with it.
"You moron! Now I'm only going to repeat this one more time, so both of you listen up," his glare turned into impartial as he continued to speak, "Lately, there has been reports coming in of missing shinigami. It has gotten so bad, that I just got news of the disappearance of Captain Kensei Muguruma and Vice Captain Mashiro Kuna."
"Sasuke," Naruto was beginning to look worried, "Are you telling us that a Captain and a Vice-Captain are now missing?"
"Yes, and if two people of that level are missing, that probably means they're dead." I looked down at my knees. I really liked Mashiro, and although Naruto didn't know this, she was determined to win his heart. Will her dream never be realized? "Now both of you don't go thinking this has to be a complete loss. All three of us are at least Vice Captain level, but no one has ever recognized us. Naruto, people would always run away from you since you were a small boy because you couldn't control your spiritual pressure back then, but now you have learned to hide your true massive power from others. Sakura, you've always been teased for your appearance and your constant flaws in combat training, but in truth, you could put Vice Captain Isane Kotetsu to shame with your medical skills. And for me, I've always been looked down because of my family's fall from nobility and massive suicide. They think I'm as arrogant and weak as them, but I want to believe…"
"Sasuke," Naruto stood up, "you have proven to be more frightening then Unohana and Yamamoto combined, and I think you could easily beat Captain Shunsui." Captain Shunsui and Ukitake were the only two adults who ever seemed to care about Naruto. They were the ones who taught him how to hide is spirit pressure, and to be able to put his hidden power to use. They're the only two people outside this small group whom Naruto seems to respect and care about.
"Thank you," he said so we could only barely hear him, "Anyhow, we need to take this opportunity. All three of us have agreed to one day be Captains, and this is our chance. If we succeed at finding the culprit and taking him down, we will become at least Vice Captains in no time."
"One problem," Naruto got that determined look in his eyes, the kind a fox has right before chasing down its prey, "It seems you made a grammatical mistake."
"Oh, and what would that be?" Sasuke said with a smirk.
"You said 'If we succeed', now don't you mean When."
"Naruto, Sakura, are you two ready for this?" Both of us nodded, Naruto with a bit more enthusiasm, "Good, then lets prove to all the pathetic swines that looked down on us what we can truly do."
"Hell yeah! We're going to be Captains, believe it!"
