If you have anything against Smokey the Bear, GET AWAY FROM HERE! If you are a Sakura fan, GET

AWAY FROM HERE! If you are a pyro, helloooo.

----------------------------------------

The Jounins gathered at the sacred meeting spot at the Hokage's office. Everyone was present.

Everyone was silent. Hokage Tsunade sat in a throne at the end of the circular table, which had no end.

She glanced around at her employees. To her left sat Kakashi and to her right, Gai. Across from Kakashi

was Kurenai who was a seat away from Gai who Anko sat across the table from, which Asuma sat next

to her and across from Tsunade was Iruka, who was there only because they love him.

In the remaining seat sat a person who had no shinobi rank and wore a yellow hat. The light that was

hanging directly over the table, like a Mafia meeting, cast a shadow from the hats brim onto the figures

face.

"Now, I have called you all here to discuss a field trip for yo--" Tsunade started.

"Field trip?! But we're too old to go on a---" Gai slurred.

"--your TEAMS, Gai. Your TEAMS OF THE THREE BRATS." she finished, annoyed. The rest of the

adults quivered in fear. "Your teams need to experience the wilderness so I have--"

"--but our teams, or at least mine, have been past the gates of Konoha! They have survived the

wilderness and kicked butt in the same time!" interrupted Kakashi. He seemed very disturbed as his hair

was sticking directly up, not laid over. Tsunade slammed her fists on the table with rage. "STOP

INTERRUPTING ME OR ILL KICK YOUR PERVERTED BUTT INTO THE WILDERNESS!!"

Everyone went blank. The Hokage let out a sigh. "The point of this field trip is to teach the children about

fire safety, and a little bit about nature. When they get back, they'll have the knowledge about the land

and fire." she paused.

Asuma raised his hand. "Why does this particularly pertain to fire? Why not mud slides or man eating

carrots?"

Kurenai raised her hand. "Besides, you haven't told us the parameters of the field trip."

Iruka raised his hand. "Who is the scary guy in the yellow hat?"

Tsunade stared at them all, clearly displeased. "Mr. Wool, would be so kind and quick to introduce

yourself... And please answer their questions. I have to go find my stress squeeze thing..." The woman

got up from her seat and scowled as she ran out of the room. Kakashi and Gai exchanged uneasy

glances at each other.

"..."

'Mr. Wool' removed his hat. He's bald. His head shined like the sun when the light shone onto it. Kurenai

let out a scream and fell backwards in her chair. On the floor she lay panting as Wool looked at her,

causing her to let out another scream. After screaming at every male in the room, she reassured her self.

Iruka helped her back up. Kurenai clutched her chest, panting heavily. "S-Sorry..."

"..."

Mr. Wool cleared his throat and began talking. "My name is Mr. Wool and I am the chief fireman at

Konoha fire Department."

"I didn't even know we had one of those. Did you guys?" Kakashi whispered.

"No." Asuma whispered back.

"No." Kurenai and Gai whispered too.

"I did!" Iruka happily whispered.

The Jounins looked at him. The fireman cleared his throat loudly. Everyone looked at him, with bored

faces. "As I was saying... The Hokage has asked me to educate you and your teams of--"

"Are you saying we're stupid?!" Kakashi spat.

"N-no! I'm saying that you all, you and your students, will learn some important safety skills when it

comes to fire."

"So your saying we're ALL stupid?!" the Copy Ninja spat again.

"NO! It just some fun activities that'll take place in the woods! You and your teams will spend a weekend

in the country while you learn what to do and what not to do when it comes to fire!!" Wool yelled,

becoming breathless and wheezing. Kurenai scooted her chair back a few feet.

Asuma raised his hand. "You still didn't answer my question, Mr. Whatsyername."

"Wool! It's. Mr. Kari. Wool! And there are no mud slides in this land and there are no man eating

carrots!!" the fireman spat out quickly.

Asuma himself looked scared. Anko looked around the small, dark, anger filled room. Anko raised her

hand.

"Can we leave now?" she said. The chief fireman nodded. With a poof and a cloud of dust, all the

Jounin left the room. Iruka just sat there, confused.

------------------------------------------------------

"We got a new mission..." said Sakura.

"This time I'll surpass Sasgay!" Naruto boasted.

"..." ...'d Sasuke. He glared at the two, who were eager to do something special. "Every other Genin team

also gets to go. Its stupid." Sasuke stared at his feet as he walked. Little get-togethers like this was one

of the things on his hate list. "I don't need to know about fire safety. I'm not going to go." Sasuke said as

he turned towards the road that led to his mansion.

-flashback-

A eight year old Sasuke did the hand symbols for the Uchiha family name technique, the fire ball out of

the mouth. He managed his chakra and out came the belch of Taco Bell's « lb. Bean Burrito. He had

mastered the technique successfully and the kata was as big as it is when we first saw it. (Forgive me on

that one. Hehe)

"Sasuke! Don't catch the house on fire! Or the pond!" yelled a familiar voice. Out of nowhere came two

hands that raised Sasuke into the air. He looked up to see a disturbed thirteen-year-old Itachi. "What

were you thinking, Sasuke?!" he asked. "I wanted to show father that I can use the ultra-powerful fire ball

technique too!" The child's eyes began to water.

"That's okay. You did great. But keep this up and you'll become a pyro."

"What's a pie-roh?"


-end flashback-

Sakura looked sad. Her Sasuke wasn't going to go. The trio walked along in silence. Team seven was

going to learn about fire safety. That meant that Smokey the Bear was going to be there. Oh, how

Sasuke hated Smokey the Bear who helped prevent forest fires. He brought back a terrible memory.

"So Sakura, since we have to stay in the forest, wanna share a tent?"

"Ew! No! Not in a frog's chance, pervert!" the pink-haired menace replied and slapped the vessel across

the face. "Ow.." he moaned. "Wanna go get some ramen, then?"

"Not on your life!" Haruno spat.

Naruto, in turn, looked hurt and sauntered off by himself towards his haven along a cold dark road.

Sakura was left to walk home alone. Her thoughts dwelled on her crush. If he stayed, she stayed. That's

how she saw it; but she couldn't let her sensei down. She also wanted to get away from the village. Poor

her.

Meanwhile, Sasuke was rethinking over the situation. If he goes, he must relive The Memory. If he

doesn't, he'll be missing out on a mission, have Naruto surpass him by a small miracle, and Kakashi

would come looking for him. Decisions, decisions!

"I'll go. But only to kill Smokey!"

TBC...
