Jiraiya's memory.
"You can't trust someone when you just met them, you have to give it time." Tsunade-sama.
Naruto and his team went on multiple B ranked missions, always coming back to the village at dusk and tired, though Kakashi does tag along occasionally some times he just didn't want to. Naruto went walking about the Konoha village for a while to clear his mind. "I wonder what's up with Pervy Sage." Naruto said, held both of his hands at the back of his head and looked about. Naruto arrived at Jiraiya's door and knocked twice, Jiraiya opened the door and set himself aside as Naruto walked in smiling. "Naruto, how have you been?" Jiraiya sat himself down on a chair. Naruto sat down with his hand infront of his mouth while yawning. "I'm doing alright." "That's good news. But why are you here?" "I needed to ask you something..." Naruto's eye-lid dropped, Jiraiya's eyebrows raised. "What is it?" "I was going to take on another B ranked mission but I heard rumours that a A ranked mission became available...would I be able to take it?" Jiraiya laid back on the chair with his arms crossed to his chest. They discussed the matters of Naruto attempting to handle an A ranked mission though somehow it ended up being about woman with large..err.."qualities". Naruto made his way over to the Ramen Shop with no rush, catching something to eat for dinner. Naruto slurped on his noodles, "Did you hear what happened with the last ninja that took the A ranked mission?" one girl whispered to her friend, "Yeah! And I heard that...he..was decapitated.." "That's nothing from what I heard about the last person to take the mission!" an adult female ninja shook her head side ways, "The mission is suicide! I can't think of anyone who can pass it." the Ramen shop owner assistant said as she put down a few more bowls for other costumers. "Huh?" Naruto looked up at the assistant. "Haven't you heard? The new A ranked mission is impossible for any current Shinobi." "Not possible lady, they are ranked by skill." Naruto finished slurping on his noodles as he took a glance around himself, people were staring at him. "What? You don't believe me? Just watch. Tomorrow I'll pass that mission like a piece of cake!" Naruto got up and walked his way home. The next day Naruto got fully prepared for his mission including his team mates and their Sensei. However they are still at the Hokage's office. Tsunade scratched her head while looking at the A mission report. "Are you sure?" "Yes." Kakashi said. Tsunade rolled up the mission scroll and handed it to Kakashi. "Okay then I guess I have no choice you guys fit the skill required. So off you go." the team began their journey.
Jiraiya walked about in the Konoha village, "Another team took the A ranked mission, it's suicide!" Jiraiya looked at the female whispering to her friend, "They won't come back from it, I can promise you that much." Jiraiya looked down at the ground, "This A ranked mission doesn't seem like any other normal mission...but I'm sure whoever took it will be fine." he thought. Jiraiya walked to the hot spring bath and relaxed while in the bath, he closed his eyes with his heart beating slowly. "Jiraiya!" one young boy called out, Jiraiya fell to the ground on his knee's and hands while bleeding from his face and torso, men and women in Akatsuki clothing surrounded him while grinning and others laughing. The young boy ran up to Jiraiya with face full of tears and shaking, "Kid get out of our way." a male Akatsuki member said while he grabbed the kid and threw him across the floor. The male Akatsuki smiled as he looked back at Jiraiya on the floor, "Now Jiraiya.." a teenage boy fired several Kunai's at the male Akatsuki, he fell to the ground with Kunai's sticking out of his back. Jiraiya looked up and noticed the Akatsuki member's were fighting with one teenager, "I..I've got to help him!" he got up and started preforming series of handsign's along with scrolls. Jiraiya opened his eyes and he looked around himself, "Hm?" he said. "Hmph. Just another memory." he thought as he got up from the bath and wrapped a towel around himself, "That kid saved me that day. I still don't know much about him only that he is no ninja; yet he took down the Akatsuki like a ninja." he thought, wiping the towel down his body before putting his clothes on and walking out of the hot springs, Jiraiya stops walking immediately as his eyes widen, "That kid..he lives in land of the waves..maybe..no, just my imagination."
"Here we are, land of the waves." Kakashi said as they walked into the village, the sun began setting in and the team were constantly looking around for a place to rest in for the day with their target not being too far. Kakashi opened the mission scroll, "Name..Unknown..Age...about 15 years old..ah here we are, Biography: Nothing to declare, but he has saved one life in his past." Kakashi scratched his head as he squinted his eye. "This isn't really helpful. But he's younger then Naruto yet he's a threat? I don't think he is our target but I'll follow through with it anyway." he said.
