Chibi Scarecrow Chapter 1
The day was a nice and normal one. Well as normal as you can get it in a shinobi village. In an office that lies in the center of the village laid an odd situation.
"Kakashi, I asked you not to come back hurt," Lady Tsunade thought she seen it all, but this was a first.
A little voice replied, "I did, and I didn't come back hurt…"
"But not totally unscathed," Lady Tsunade said looking at the former ANBU and Jounin who was now reduce to a six year old with a jounins chakra path. "What happen?"
Kakashi stared at her and said, "You won't believe it, but a little to nothing happen."
"A little to nothing," replied a skeptic Hokage.
"A little to nothing," answered Kakashi. "The mission was everything we expected. A little skirmish here and a little skirmish there, but nothing happened as far as I can tell. No poison needs, smoke, or contact for the matter. Went to sleep and the next thing I knew I was six years old."
"Well I'll be, but for the sake of my nerves, I'm doing a thorough check up. Strip Hatake."
…
Lady Tsunade twitched. She just couldn't believe it. She just couldn't believe.
"Kakashi I want you to explain all the hits that you receive on your mission."
"Well it was basically retrieval mission, so I was able to avoid confrontation most of the time." Kakashi said. "When I did get close to an enemy I change into a kid."
"A kid?"
"A kid, in a place like that, it isn't odd for a child to end up in a place where they don't belong, so they never question why I was there." Kakashi said in a matter of fact tone. "Don't forget that particular village didn't have that many shinobies so it was civilian guards, so that's why it made things easier. But either way it goes I took the necessary precaution and found no impending danger, but I knew I tripped a silent alarm."
"I stayed a kid for a while since it was the best form of action. At least until I was away from the village." Kakashi thought about. "Then I had a confrontation against one ninja who seem very determine to get the scroll back, and he wasn't a half bad fighter. He actually managed to touch me."
Lady Tsunade nodded, "In what way?"
Kakashi cocked his head cutely. "What do you mean?"
"In what way did your opponent hit you?"
"Oh, it was so strange because it was almost Hyuuga style."
"And that's why your chakra path is screw to hell." Lady Tsunade put it mildly.
"What?" Kakashi by this time got tired of acting like a dumb kid which in his case it wasn't helping very much.
"Your enemy tried to use the famous 'Gentle Fist' on you. Because the gentle fist is only mastered by the Hyuuga clan themselves that opponent of your twisted your chakra path leaving you as a child. I can get a Hyuuga clan member her to do it, but that's up to you." Lady Tsunade amber eyes flashed.
Kakashi growled, "I don't want the whole world to know, just a few who would keep their traps and take it to their graves."
"Well that can easily be arranged," Lady Tsunade reassured.
…
Hiashi Hyuuga was the one to be chosen others could've been the one to help him, but as much as Kakashi hated to admit it he old trusted Hiashi and his twin brother Hizashi. That's it.
"Well Lady Tsunade was correct about your chakra path being twisted up, but I can't be sure what will happen when I untangle them so tell me if you're feeling anything out of the ordinary."
Kakashi nodded.
"I'm going to start from the neck, and then I'm going to go down from there."
Kakashi nodded again.
A light blue chakra form on Hiashi hand and he light tapped Kakashi neck. Then he move down towards the small chest, Kakashi sigh. Next were the shoulders. Then it was his sides. Last was his stomach which Kakashi promptly threw up.
…
"Well that was interesting." Lady Tsunade growled at the putrid smell that was stinking up the closed up office. Hiashi was in an ANBU shirt and pants after showering like ten times to get the awful smell off of him.
"Sorry," Kakashi said at least having the grace to look embarrass.
"It's okay," Hiashi said clearly trying to dismiss the event.
"So what just happened?" Lady Tsunade asked.
"It would seem that he has a knot in one of his chakra path." Hiashi sigh. "It'll be a while, but once that line of chakra untangle, he'll be as good as new. Hopefully."
"Hopefully," Lady Tsunade and Kakashi questioned.
"Yes hopefully while your chakra line unbinds you'll be able to turn back to normal, but it'll take time."
"How long?" Kakashi asked expecting the worst.
"I can't really say. A week at the most maybe longer." Hiashi did something that nobody would think he would do. He shrugs and pushed off the couch. "Anyways if I'm done." Hiashi hinted.
"Oh yes, you may leave now, but remember not a word of this."
…
Kakashi sat down on the floor. Frustrated, tired, and hungry.
"What I do now?"
"Well, you can't stay by yourself and when I think about it nobody will recognize you as a kid. You hair is hanging over your face."
Kakashi ignored that detailed, "What do you mean, I can't stay by myself?"
"Isn't it obvious, you're barely seven. How will it look if I let you live by yourself. Besides I have the perfect person to look after you." Lady Tsunade said.
…
Iruka was sitting in his classroom. He it was so close to summer, unfortunately he had to be here for summer school seeing how he was the master of the school.
Che, what a pain. Iruka stared out the window then went back to grading his student papers. Jeez, I wish I could have this summer free. Even if it's just one time.
There was a rustle of leaves and Iruka looked up to see an ANBU. He couldn't say he was surprised, although it wasn't often that one will come to him.
"Can I help you," Iruka asked.
"Lady Tsunade requests you in her office immediately," the ANBU left and Iruka packed up, and asked a lingering janitor to lock up for him.
…
Kakashi waited a little impatiently before asking for the umpteenth time who it was.
"You'll see when they get here; as a matter of fact here they are now. Come in."
Kakashi mouth dropped as Kakashi saw who it was.
"You have got to be kidding me."
I did Rue-chan so I'm doing Chibi Scarecrow. I hope you enjoy.
