"Katara wake up" said a boy, about 16 with long brown hair in a loose ponytail and wearing a black workout tank top and black pants, to the door in front of him. "Katara…Katara, don't make me go in there to wake you. Katara…Fine Don't Say I Didn't Warn You." He opened the door to see the room was empty so he shrugged his shoulders and left the room.

---2 Miles Away---

"Katara do you have to do That mission I mean it is 12 years long, maybe more," said a man with grayish silver hair with a mask covering half his face. "I wish you would stay."

"Kakashi…I'm a jounin now it's my job to go on missions that are this long" said Katara, a girl with long wavy dark brown hair and wearing a long sleeve black shirt, black pants and a black jounin vest.

"I know but your 14 and still young compared to the oth…"

"Which is why I am honored they chose me and not some one else," she said as she walked closer to him.

"I still think you shouldn't go…but I guess I can't stop…or can I" said Kakashi as he wrapped his arms around her waist with a perverted smile on his face. She smiled after he said that and thought 'I guess Iruka was right about him.'

"Katara!" yelled a voice to the right of them and then Iruka came into the clearing. "Hey little sis, Kakashi…. Katara your team is waiting for you."

"Okay…Kakashi can you do me one favor…be the Jounin to escort me home in 12 years…" said Katara as she hugged her brother and him. After he nodded his head she walked towards the entrance of the village while thinking 'I hope Kakashi doesn't forget about his promise…I wonder if he realized he promised to become a jounin. Iruka said Kakashi just wanted to be a Chuunin not a jounin, so he might not be my escort to tak…God I hope he realized what I said.'

" 'Bout time you got here Katara. Come on we got to go said the leader of the team.

She turned toward the village and whispered "See you in 12 years guys, well at least I hope." Then she turned and walked out the gat not looking back because she thought if she did it would be harder to leave
