IT'S SEQUEL TIME BABY!
Kakashi was watching the rain hit his window. It was a dreary day, and the shadows in his room seemed to say, "You have absolutely nothing to do don't you?" It was true, he had nothing to do. In fact, a week went by with this same monotonous weather and utter boredom.
He let out a sigh and pulled his legs to his chest. Boy did he wish he could go on a mission, but Tsunade forbid him to. He had sprained his ankle when he fell down the stairs carrying groceries to his room. Punching the bed in frustration he let himself fall sideways onto his pillow.
"I need to get a life," Kakashi nestled his face into his sheets and started to drift off.
The sound of the rain pitter pattering on the roof was hypnotizing to him. He counted the number of drops he heard land in the bucket that was catching the water dripping from the ceiling. Numerous times Kakashi attempted to fix the leak, but numerous times, it never worked. Turing over on his back Kakashi felt a cold wet substance dampening his mask and running down his forehead.
Opening his eyes he spotted yet another crack in the ceiling. It started small, but then began to drip irregularly, and then a little too fast. Thinking nothing of it, Kakashi moved over so he wouldn't get wet. Bad idea…a crash was heard and a chunk of roof fell on top of him. A few pieces of rubble crumbled down at his scream.
"WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON IN MY LIFE THAT THIS HAS TO HAPPEN?!" Pushing the debris off of him, he grabbed his vest on the hook and slammed the door closed behind him as he grumbled down the hallway. His feet prevented any further movement when he heard the door fall down.
Kakashi tried to remain calm…he slowly turned back to look at the brown wooden door and walked over and started to kick it shouting profanities every now and then.
"You goddamn piece of shit! You had to fall down…!"
Out of breath he regained his composer and decided to continue his walk. Gai, who just so happened to live three doors down came out of his room in his underwear.
"Kakashi, is everything okay?" Gai asked in a panic.
"Yes." Kakashi pushed past him and headed down the steps.
Gai saw the mangled door on the ground and peeped into Kakashi's apartment. "My God! It's a disaster area in here!"
"Do us a favor Gai, and put some clothes on!" Kakashi shouted from outside.
"Just displaying my youthful figure Kakashi!" Gai yelled back from the window.
"I'll say…" an old woman about the age of seventy in her bathrobe, who by the looks of it was awoken by the caved in ceiling, leaned against the doorway smiling at the half-naked Gai.
The rain only seemed to pour harder when Kakashi walked through the desolate streets. Water tumbled from his eyelashes and down his cheek. He hadn't even bothered putting his headband on, what was the point anyways? It would just be another article he owned that would get soaked. Kakashi cringed at the thought that both his pictures had been ruined from the catastrophe. He could never replace the photograph of his old team, and the image of team seven was mutilated beyond repair.
He wanted to cry, but the sky was doing that for him. It was one very nasty, no good, terrible, horrible, unforgiving, bad day. To make matters worse, his recovering ankle was starting to throb.
"Could this day get any worse?"
Lightning and thunder filled the sky and a speeding horse ran past splashing a puddle drenching Kakashi in mud right on cue. The horse's owner quickly followed and knocked him down without even saying sorry.
"I should just sit right here and not move. WHAT DO YOU HAVE AGAINST ME?" Kakashi bellowed at the heavens.
"Everything!" A voice came from a nearby building.
"Wise ass…" Kakashi said under his breath.
Muddy and cranky, Kakashi suddenly remembered his room and that it was gradually rotting away. A genius plan now popped into his head. Maybe Tsunade will take pity on me and let me skip my physical tomorrow…oh, wait…it's Tsunade…
The physical, the one thing Kakashi was more upset about than his home. Last time he went proved to be quite sketchy. He never really found out why he could not complete the transformation jutsu, but he didn't want to take the risk of being stuck in a feline's body like that again. The taste of the medicine Tsunade gave Kakashi still lingered in his mouth and it had been a month since he took it.
"Get a job!" Someone rode past on his bike and threw fifty cents at Kakashi's head.
"I should get up before people really think I'm a homeless guy." Kakashi stood up from the curb but his bad ankle gave way and he fell back with nothing to support his fall. Crap, I reinjured it…
Knowing that he couldn't possibly sleep on the streets, he carefully and painfully got up once again. Now limping, Kakashi managed to make it to Tsunade's building. He looked at the cement set of steps that led straight to Tsunade's personal office. Too much effort, so he went in through the main entrance.
It was clean inside. Everything was clean, perfectly spotless. The floor had just been mopped, the windows washed, and there he was. The mud monster. Mud in his hair, on his clothes, his shoes, his face. The receptionist gave Kakashi a 'dirty' look as he headed towards the elevator.
"Hi, this is a memo from Tsunade, make sure that every jonin receives it thank you."
Kakashi brightened up at the sound of this voice.
"Ka-Kakashi," Sakura touched his shoulder. "Is that you?"
"I wouldn't touch me, if I were you," Kakashi sighed. "I'm a little muddy…" He turned face to face with the young lady who had concern all over her face. "How come you only give me that look?"
"What are you talking about Kakashi? I only give this look to people who look like they need this look." Sakura smiled. "Let me take you to somewhere I can clean you up. Right down this hall there are recovery rooms."
"Actually, I haven't come for medical attention."
"Well you need it. You're pale and have dark circles under your eyes and when you walked in here, you were limping."
"No, you see my house—"
"No Kakashi, you're coming with me!"
"But my house!"
"But nothing, do I need to carry you?"
Kakashi paused and laughed. "Like when I was a cat?"
"Oh yeah…you know I totally forgot about that…" Sakura lifted Kakashi up bridal style and carried him down the hall.
"Hey what are doing? Put me down, I can walk on my own!" Kakashi started to turn bright red.
"You were being very uncooperative, and if need to carry you to do my job, then that's what I'll do!" Sakura kicked open the nearest door and entered the empty room, putting Kakashi down. "Now there's a shower in here, and I want you to clean up. Be careful on that ankle though. Once you get out, press the red button and I'll be right in."
Kakashi sighed; seeing that it would be virtually impossible to escape Sakura's medical attention he agreed. "Yes mother."
"Good! By the way, Tsunade wanted me to tell you that you're not getting out of your examination tomorrow so don't even try." Sakura exited the room with a grin on her face leaving Kakashi groaning at his foiled plan.
