Naruto's POV
Naruto gently felt a wandering spring breeze run through his golden hair. Stopping momentarily he enjoyed the sweet sensation. Looking around to the surrounding forest he smiled as he felt chakra stir inside of him. Looking forward to Kakashi-sensei he smiled into the air. Seeing the Jonin turn his head the smile quickly faded and was replaced by a look of determination. Squad seven was on their way to receive a new mission. Hopefully this would be more exciting than their prior missions had been. Walking into the office of the Hokage Naruto thought, 'Someday Im going to be the one giving the orders... Believe it!'
The old man looked from underneath his hat and said, "Today squad seven will be attempting a C-ranked mission." Naruto looked directly to the Hokage awaiting further instruction.
"You will be heading to the Sound village." The Hokage said and Naruto's eyes widened slightly.
Kakashi nodded and said in a quiet voice so the squad couldn't hear. "Are you sure about this? You know the rumors say that Orochimaru is hidden somewhere in the sound village. He has already showed an interest in Sauske by laying a curse mark on him."
The Hokage laughed and said, "They are Genin are they not-"
Kakashi looked at the Hokage mildly irritated, "My point exactly! They are no match for Orochimaru."
"He is not so foolish to show himself, he will remain hidden." The Hokage said confidently. Kakashi nodded and thought to himself, 'I hope you are right ... but if we do meet will he be able to use Sauske?'
Naruto glanced up at his Sensei and wondered what the discussion was about. Soon he had forgotten about the subject of him talking and was totally focused in on something else. Beating Sauske!

Setting: Sound Village
Characters: Sasori, Deidara, and Tobi
Anime/Manga: Naruto
The spring morning air dances through dark locks of hair and into the distant rising sun.
"Sasori! Tobi is a good boy! Can't catch Tobi he's to fast for mr. Fat Puppet man!"
A childish voice fills the wooden suit of armor that contains the puppet master of the Akatsuki, Sasori, "Tobi you are more noise than blabber mouth Deidara... So just shut up or get lost childish man." The puppets tail coils around Tobi with the poison tip aimed at his jugular vein,
"But Tobi is a good boy, Sasori, don't hurt Tobi."
The puppet tail slides from around Tobi's neck and disappears into the Akatsuki cloak, "Well Tobi better keep his mouth shut or he'll lose something important..."
Tobi nods spasticly and does his Tobi dance to calm himself. Thinking to himself he runs into something warm, he squeals and hugs the blonde bomber, "Senpai! Tobi misses senpai, Sasori is a meanie!" Deidara looks down to find his worst nightmare,
"Tobi get off me or i'll blow yours hands off!" The masked man drops the hug and and returns to Sasori's side. "Tobi why don't you find something to do and leave us alone," Deidara glares at the hyper Akatsuki, and without any words Tobi is gone. Tobi ends up miles away from the puppet master and bomber. Sakura trees are in full bloom surrounding a crystal clear lake, for dusting over the scene making it like a mystical fairy tale. It was one of the sound village's hidden paradises. Hidden in a cave forty feel below with no one to intrude. Tobi shrugged his shoulders and took his mask off with a sigh. One red eye glanced over his surroundings and a white bandage covered the other. Silky black hair flows freely from it's bind. It was nice to be in a place where no one could find you.
