This is my first Naruto fanfic. I hope you guys enjoy it.

Summary: It's a filler after Naruto defeats Pain. The group of nin set out on another mission to rescue a missing ninja from the clutches of evil. But soon they learn of a new Kyuubi while on their journey.

Team Kakashi Sets Out

Naruto was considered a hero after he defeated Pain. Everyone adored him but all he could think about now was saving Sasuke. He was now being chased after by many of the countries now.

Team Kakashi, now with Sai having to leave their group, had to find a new member for their team. They went to Tsunade to try to find a new member. Tsunade gave Kakashi a scroll with a list full of ninja who could join their team. The list read:

Neji Hyuuga

Hinata Hyuuga

Rock Lee

Temari

Ino

Choji

The list had only six ninja on it. All of the ninja we had known and love. The strongest of them all was Neji but we needed someone that wouldn't pull the strength factor away from Naruto. We looked at the list one more time and chose the best of the six, Hinata.

"Hinata is the best choice Tsunade."

"Why not Neji?"

"Because Naruto and Neji would fight too much." said Kakashi sensei.

"But why Hinata?"

"Because I know she likes Naruto and being part of his team will teach her to have more confidence in herself."

"Then Hinata is your gal. She is now part of Team Kakashi. I want to meet the four of you in my office tomorrow morning to give you guys your first mission."

Kakashi raced off to tell Team Kakashi about their new member. Kakashi told Naruto and Sakura to meet him at the river at 7:00 am tomorrow. He didn't tell him who he picked but he did tell them that they would meet their new teammate.

The next morning, Naruto and Sakura were at the river on time but yet again Kakashi was late. They had waited ten minutes before they were about to leave when Kakashi showed up with Hinata by his side.

"Why is Hinata here?" asked Naruto.

"She is your new teammate and I want you guys to make her like family."

"Of course Kakashi sensei. She is already like family remember we've known her for like ever."

"Then let's go we've got a mission to receive from the Hokage."

"Alright finally a mission." yelled the blonde Naruto.

They left for the Hokage's tower. They got there within minutes and the hokage had another team in her office. As the other team left Naruto and the others walked in.

"Grandma Tsunade what's our mission!" yelled Naruto.

"Naruto settle down."

"Kakashi give him a break, your mission is to rescue a ninja that has been taken away from his clan. Find him and return him to the land hidden in web."

"I've never heard of this country." said Kakashi.

"Neither have I, until today Kakashi. This boy is young and he is like you Naruto. He wants to help everyone. We think that the Akatuski might be after him for some reason. The kage there didn't say why they were after him. He just said that they needed our help in saving him."

"We will do it!" yelled Naruto.

"There is more I need to tell you. He is the last of his kind. He is like Sasuke but not a missing ninja. They only need our help because he was taken by ninja from their own city. The last time he was seen was in Hotakaka village, the Village Hidden in the Web. We need to find him before the Akatuski do."

"Yes…..madam."

The next thing she knew Team Kakashi was off to the gates. They had said their goodbyes, gathered their supplies, and went to the gate.

"Alright Team Kakashi off to Hotakaka village."

"Yes….." yelled the group of teens.

Team Kakashi was off……Will they find the missing ninja before the Akatuski….Keep reading to find out.
