FYI I DO NOT OWN NARUTO (unfortunately)
Chapter 1
"Go get my practice stuff from upstairs," Naruto-sensei stated.
One of his pupils, Rokiba, Kakashi's and Ayame's son, replied enthusiastically, "Okay, I'll go get it!"
"It's in the attic, last door on your left and up the stairs."
Rokiba opened the door and walked up the stairs. He looked around for the dummies and blank scrolls. He saw a box with the words M o J als. He was flabbergasted at what it meant but quickly realized what the box contained. He placed a Summoning scroll next to it and placed a timer next to it. He used his chakra to connect them. He set the time for 10:21 pm. He quickly gathered the stuff he needed to get. He swiftly got back to Naruto-sensei before they noticed he spent the extra time up there.
Naruto grabbed the empty scroll and quickly wrote the Summoning Jutsu for a frog. He said to his pupils, Rokiba and Ryuu," Here is how it is done."
He continued, "You must first get some blood drawn, whether you bite your thumb or use a wound already open. Next you must combine a little chakra with your blood and make the blood touch the paper. Then you say 'summoning jutsu'."
The two tried it out together simultaneously. "SUMMONING JUTSU!"
Rokiba's summoning lines went far enough out, but he only produced a small trickle of water. Rokiba had astonished himself. Ryuu's summoning lines produced a cup half full of water with frog eggs inside. Ryuu jumped for joy.
"Finally, I beat Rokiba-kun." He cried for joy
Rokiba pushed near his wound again, making more blood flow. "SUMMONING JUTSU!" Rokiba said loudly.
This time a continual stream of water flowed from the scroll.
"Why do you always have to ruin the fun, Rokiba?"
Rokiba stuck his tongue out at him. "Because I can do better."
Naruto spoke up, "Now go practice for about a half hour."
The two ran off to do go practicing trying to out do each other.
Rokiba got the stuff he needed ready. Blank scrolls, ink, brush. He checked the time. 10:19 pm it said. He put the stuff into the backpack. He got ready in a crouched position. Poof. He looked around him. He was in Naruto's attic. He went over to the MO JA box. He cleared off the dust. Minato's Journals it read. Rokiba opened the box and pulled the stuff out. He dusted off the first book he found. He quickly put the journal into his backpack. A creaking sound was coming towards him. He swiftly put the rest of the books into his backpack and used Substitution Jutsu.
He found himself back home. He took the first journal out of his slightly torn backpack. He lit his new candle, luckily not Roman, and began to read. To his surprise he found that Minato had been working on a new technique. Rokiba began to practice to the best of his ability on the jutsu, trying not to make the same mistakes Minato had.
The next morning rolled by. Rokiba woke up from an almost sleepless night. He was sprawled on the floor with scrolls about the room. Kakashi popped his head into the room. "Time to wake up," he said with the fresh smell of ramen wafting in from downstairs. Rokiba woke up suddenly. He scrambled his stuff together.
"Why are you in yesterday's clothes?" Kakashi asked.
"I've been reading scrolls on summonings, father?" Rokiba quickly replied.
"That's nice." Kakashi said. "Breakfast is ready."
"I'll be right there." Rokiba told his father.
Kakashi left to go eat breakfast.
Rokiba came out to eat. He pulled down his mask and downed the food.
"Thanks. Bye," he said on his way out the door.
Rokiba got to the Hokage's office in nice time.
Rokiba was brought in. Ryuu was already there.
"Hey!" They replied to each other. Naruto looked up at them.
"You two are being sent on a mission with Kakashi and Sakura. For this mission I want you two to keep practicing your jutsus, but you guys are going to be on the lookout for anything suspicious. Your mission is to deliver a sealed scroll to the Village hidden in the Sand, to the Kazekage himself, Gaara of the Desert. You have two hours to get ready." Naruto said sternly. Rokiba and Ryuu gave each other a high five as they walked out the door.
Rokiba got home quickly. He gathered up the books into his backpack and got the other essential items on his list. He took a book out and read for an hour. He left his house, which was near the center of Konoha, with an hour left to go. He went to the ramen shop. He poked his head in.
"One bowl please, grandpa." Rokiba said.
"Right away," his grandfather said. He put together the broth, noodles, and extras together. "Here you go." He said with a smile.
Rokiba quickly ate it with little aftertaste. He left the shop as quickly as he had come in.
Rokiba casually walked over to the gate. "Hey, what's up?" he said to the guards. The guards just sat up after being slouched over, resting their eyes on the desk. Rokiba pulled out another of the journals and began to read and practice the jutsu. Rokiba finally got it. "Cha, I finally did it!" Rokiba screamed. The guards put their heads up in complete alertness like the village was burning down.
"What's going on?" one said. Rokiba told them he had finally done a jutsu, purposefully not telling them what it was, so he wouldn't be ratted out. "Nice job," the other said. The two just rested their heads on the table still keeping lookout.
After another 30 minutes it was time to leave. Ryuu, Sakura's son, arrived with Sakura at the gate. "Stupid Kakashi is always late," Sakura moaned. Kakashi finally arrived. "Is everyone ready to leave?" Kakashi said. Sakura merely rolled her eyes.
The group left at a good speed. Rokiba told his father he had successfully done a new jutsu. "Nice job son, what was it?" his father told. "WHAT?" Ryuu interrupted. "I have hardly started my Summoning Jutsu."
"It's not Summoning jutsu," Rokiba blurted trying to pull the words back in his mouth.
"What is it then?" Ryuu said directly.
"Um substitution jutsu," he lied.
"Nice, show us later we are on a mission," his father told him.
Everyone looked ahead and continued onward.
"This looks like a nice place to take a quick break." Kakashi said looking around at a serene green meadow. The sun was a little below halfway between noon and sunset.
Everyone grabbed a snack and started munching. "We have to hurry if we are to make it to the Sand Village." Sakura said.
Everyone quickly got ready. "Everyone OK. Then let's go." Kakashi said.
Kakashi was in the lead with Ryuu to his right, Sakura to his left, and Rokiba from a distance watching their backs, cloaked in the trees.
The team continued onward. The reached the first dunes in a matter of minutes.
"This is the edge of the Fire Country." Kakashi declared. "We will have to go into the night I'm guessing if we want to make it there."
"Let's go then." Ryuu said. As Ryuu started to take a step, Sakura stuck an arm out and stopped him.
"There's a trap. I can sense it, and I don't want to have to use my medical ninja skills." Sakura said.
Kakashi lifted his forehead protector, revealing his Sharigan eye, already in 3 spiral mode.
"It's just a bunch of hidden explosive tags under key areas of sand. Follow my lead." He stated as he began hopping from areas. The others followed with steadiness of feet. Carefully they hopped on areas of safe passage. They worked their way to a long stretch of hilly dunes.
"Alright everyone, that's enough, let's hurry." Kakashi said.
They ran in formation through the various villages, even after nightfall they still ran. They reached the Village Hidden in the Sand at midnight. The village was quiet as people slept. Kakashi's team made it to the Kazekage's building. As they stepped through the doors, they immediately knew something was amiss. They walked up the stairs sleuthfully up the stairs. Kakashi was ready with his Sharigan. After going up three fourths of the stairs, Kakashi paused. He used Shadow Clone jutsu and sent it in. The Shadow Clone ran up the stairs with a kunai in hand blocking all the kunai that were being launched at him. The Clone finished disabling the traps. When they reached the top, they hurried to the Kazekage's office.
As they opened the door, they saw Gaara holding a rogue ninja in his Sand Coffin.
"Welcome Kakashi, Sakura. And who are they?" Gaara asked.
"This is Rokiba, my son." Kakashi announced.
"And this is Ryuu, my son." Sakura said.
"We have a sealed scroll we need to give you." Kakashi went on.
"Just a minute, I need to take this ninja to the intelligence department. I'll be right back." Gaara said.
Gaara brought the ninja out of the office and left.
Ryuu and Rokiba sat on the chairs, panting. They had thought the Kazekage was kidnapped again. They had learned from school what had happened the first time. The Kazekage had been taken by Deidra, a member of the Akatsuki. They had taken out the One-Tailed Beast out of him, and had added it to try to create the Bijuu; well the last part had been added by their parents.
After a couple minutes, Gaara came back from the intelligence department. Kakashi handed him the scroll. Gaara used his sand to open the scroll, for it would only open with his jutsu. The scroll opened, and Gaara had a concerned look on his face.
"Are you sure you don't know what this reads?" Gaara asked.
"Yes, Kazekage." Kakashi and Sakura replied.
"Come read this." He said, beckoning them to the scroll.
They went over and read the scroll. It read There are Rock spies in your midst. Gaara got into his thinking mode. "I know I can't ask this of you, but I know you will. Will you spy on me?" Gaara asked.
"Of course." Kakashi said. Ryuu and Rokiba had surprised looks on their faces.
"I need you to see how they could spy on me and to possibly find out who are the spies." Gaara said. "Starting tonight, could you check out my guards."
"Speaking of your guards… They were killed." Kakashi said.
Gadara's eyes widened a bit.
"Scratch that… you should start now, go!" Gaara spoke, a little too loudly.
The team was hurried into a secret chamber to begin preparations.
Kakashi said to them, "Okay you two, this is your first spy mission. Some key points: don't be seen, stay alert, pick up as much information as possible, and most importantly, stick with your partner. We will split into two groups, Ryuu, stick with Sakura. Rokiba, you will be joining me. Sakura, I want you to spy from the outside. I will stay inside and spy. Now let's begin our preparations."
Sakura brought out her food pills and handed a couple to each person. Kakashi prepared some kunai with explosive tags attached. Ryuu was meditating to gather chakra. Rokiba decided to join Ryuu, concentrating on gathering chakra.
"Okay, if you get caught by the enemy, there a couple things you might want to do. First, if possible drop a smoke bomb to get away, second use Substitution Jutsu, and thirdly if all else fails, scream my name. I will come get you if you get caught; I don't want to be forced to get you. This is almost like training only… real." Kakashi said, placing emphasis on the last word. "Now let's go."
Sakura and Ryuu left quickly to their observation point. Kakashi and Rokiba stayed where they were at. They slightly opened the secret door, revealing the Kazekage's office. The Kazekage was talking to one of the genin teams. He was describing a D-ranked mission of delivering some notes to certain individuals. Rokiba watched the leader intently, looking for any sign of deception. After Gaara dismissed them, Kakashi went in to talk to Gaara.
"Gaara, my team will be checking on each of your workers. If you could, could you give us a list of all of them, so we can mark them off?" Kakashi asked.
"Yes, let me find it." Gaara said trying to find the lists. "Here it is all 251 of them." Gaara handed the list to Kakashi.
Kakashi opened the list, looked at it, and left with a thank you.
Rokiba followed Kakashi until they saw someone approaching. Kakashi jumped up high, grabbed a ceiling tile, and got into the ceiling, all in one fell swoop. Rokiba jumped and followed. Kakashi replaced the tile but left part of it open to spy on passersby. The person passing by was Kankuro. Kakashi pulled up his forehead protector, so he could use his Sharigan.
"That's him," Kakashi whispered to Rokiba.
The two waited there. No one else came by except Kankuro again, leaving the building. By the time it was morning, an influx of people came in. Mission heads, shinobi, medical ninja, and intelligence workers all came by. Kakashi looked for possible imposters, while Rokiba checked off people's names, next to their picture. Rokiba wrote Actual Person next to them. One hundred people had been checked off by lunchtime. Rokiba pulled out his lunch and had started eating. People still passed by while Rokiba ate, so he had to sign people off with a rice ball in his mouth.
Kakashi noticed a strange figure. He signaled to Rokiba to come and see. They both looked at the strange figure. It was a dark hooded man (or woman, they couldn't tell) that was of medium height but strong build. Kakashi decided to follow him above. Rokiba had to quickly follow Kakashi, so he wouldn't lose him. Rokiba had to make sure he was quiet as he ran so as to not alert the cloaked person they were following. The hooded figure went into the Kazekage's office. Kakashi and Rokiba slipped into the secret passageway. They pushed the door open slightly. The Kazekage already had some visitors. They looked like some intelligence officers. The cloaked person pushed the door open to Gaara's office. Gaara looked behind the officers to see the hooded figure. It began to make some hand signs. Rokiba glanced up to his father. Kakashi had his Sharigan to Mangekyo Sharigan. Rokiba got a terrified look on his face. This ninja was not to be messed with. The hooded figure took off his hood revealing a snake like head. Kakashi muttered something about an apprentice to Orochimaru. Rokiba didn't catch the name. The man looked straight at the Kazekage and started to rush. His hands were glowing blue from chakra. Kakashi got out of the compartment they were in. Kakashi began Kamui, his jutsu that can send others to other dimensions. The man simply licked his lips. Rokiba felt a shudder go down his back. Three figures suddenly burst through the window followed by Ryuu and Sakura. The three figures got behind the once hooded figure. The intelligence officers were gone by then and Gaara was on his feet, ready with a jutsu.
"How nice." The apprentice said. "Both of you have got kids, and you brought them here too."
"Why are you here Kabuto?" Kakashi asked.
"No reason, it just took my fancy." Kabuto replied.
"Well, you're not getting Gaara, that's for sure." Sakura said.
"Are you sure?" Kabuto replied, pointing to the figures behind him. The people behind him looked like zombies. The first one looked like an Akatsuki, the next one was some puppet, and the last was a fish man.
"Deidara, Sasori, and Kisame, all of them old Akatsuki members." Sakura said.
"Yes, brought back with Impure World Resurrection. Well with you guys here, I can kill Gaara and bring him back to life." Kabuto maniacally said. "Let's play a little first. Deidara, you first."
The first one stepped out with a crazy smile on his face. "Ready for art?" He said. Gaara lashed out with sand before he could attack.
"Sand coffin." Gaara yelled as sand wrapped around Deidara. Deidara began spitting out his clay bombs. The bombs were blowing up inside the sand. One of the clay bombs escaped. Kakashi used Kamui on Deidara and his bomb, sucking them away.
While Kakashi was recuperating, Sakura stepped up as Sasori walked toward her.
"We meet again, eh." Sasori stated.
"Yeah, this time I don't have grandma Chiyo." Sakura said.
"Feeling confident then?" Sasori asked.
"Go already!" Kabuto shouted.
Sasori glared back at Kabuto. Sasori ran at Sakura. Sasori began to punch at her. Sakura punched harder back, smashing his arm. Sasori brought out of his arm, a small puppet. The miniscule puppet was a mini Sasori. The mini Sasori split into pieces, lathered in poison.
"This time you have no antidotes." Sasori said.
"I don't need an antidote; all I need is my power." Sakura replied back.
Sasori jumped out of the building, but before he could, Gaara sent some sand to cripple his joints. Sakura followed him in hot pursuit.
Kisame stepped in front of Kabuto. Kakashi got back up. Gaara stepped up too, meanwhile Ryuu got into the secret room with Rokiba. The two began making a plan. Kisame started with Water Shark Bomb Jutsu. Kakashi stopped it with his own Water Shark Bomb Jutsu. Kakashi began Lightning Blade.
"Cover me." He shouted at Gaara.
Ryuu and Rokiba watched as Kakashi sliced Kisame with Lightning Blade, followed by Sand Coffin of Kisame's limbs. Ryuu and Rokiba wrote their ideas, so no one could hear them.
Kisame got back up even after Gaara's Sand Burial of his limbs. Gaara and Kakashi were shocked. Kakashi got back up. His Sharigan was back into Mangekyo Sharigan. He began Kamui again. This time Kisame, and part of the office, disappeared.
"Now it's time for you to go Kabuto." Kakashi stated.
"Oh really." Kabuto replied. "We'll just see about that."
Kabuto summoned two giant snakes. The snakes snapped at Gaara and Kakashi while also crushing the building. Ryuu and Rokiba had to get out of there, so they wouldn't get hurt. Gaara began Sand Waterfall Imperial Funeral, his enormous version of Sand Burial. The two snakes were partially caught in it. The snakes thrashed at Gaara. Gaara made the sand wrap around the snakes and crush it. The snakes poofed back to wherever. Gaara began making the sand rush towards Kabuto. Kabuto started backing up. Kakashi came behind him with Lightning Blade and sliced his heart and brain. Kabuto fell to the ground. Gaara's sand wrapped around him and crushed him.
Suddenly they heard Kabuto's laugh. They looked at the blood on the ground. Every piece of him began to slide back together forming himself anew. This time, instead of running towards Gaara or Kakashi, he ran elsewhere. Kakashi suddenly saw Ryuu and Rokiba in the direction Kabuto was running. Kabuto grabbed Rokiba before he could react. Kabuto pulled out a kunai and jabbed at Rokiba's heart. Ryuu screamed for Rokiba. As Kabuto plunged, Rokiba's body turned into a log. Cursing, Kabuto ran at Ryuu. Ryuu's Sharigan suddenly flared up and used Fireball Fire Style Jutsu. The fire engulfed Kabuto, but Kabuto was unaffected. Kabuto was still running at Ryuu. Rokiba appeared out of nowhere and grabbed Ryuu back to his new hiding place. Kakashi got enough time from this distraction that he used Kamui for the third time in 20 minutes.
Most of Kabuto was sucked in, but his legs were left. Gaara threw an explosive tag at his remaining limbs.
Sakura came back from her battle with Sasori. She didn't even look that tired. She got Gaara and Kakashi, and she began to heal them. By now, she was as good as Lady Tsunade was at her best. Kakashi was ready by the next night to go, even though he had to stay in bed all day.
Rokiba went in to see his father before they left.
"Hey dad, are you okay?" Rokiba asked.
"Yes, thanks to Sakura, without her I would be waiting a week to leave." Kakashi replied. "What was that you did back there? I've never seen you move that fast."
"Oh, that was the new jutsu I learned. I read about it in Minato's Journals. I had to concentrate really hard on getting where I wanted to go. Did you see Ryuu?"
"Yes, I guess Sasuke really is his father."
"Yeah, I kind of figured that too."
"Well, I guess you two have some new training to do. You have the White Flash, and he has the Sharigan. You two might turn out to be another Naruto and Sasuke combination. Hopefully this time, you might turn out well."
"Yeah, I hope so too. Maybe if we do combination jutsus, he would be more likely to stay."
"Maybe so."
"See you later then"
"Bye." Kakashi finished as Rokiba left.
