I don't think I own Naruto…sadly.

In Konoha it was a beautiful day. The sun was shining the birds were chirping and for once nothing seemed like it was going to go wrong. Kakashi however knew that it wouldn't last as he slowly made his way to where his team would be.

"Say that to my face, Teme!" A yell came from the training grounds usually frequented by Team Seven. "Don't talk to Sasuke-Kun like that!" Came the usual yell of the pink haired Kunoichi. Kakashi snuck up to where his team was waiting. Sakura was hitting Naruto over the head for the slight against Sasuke who was rolling his eyes. He walked to his team to distract Sakura from her target.

"You're late!" Yelled Sakura loudly before glancing over at Naruto who was rubbing his head. He looked up dazed, "What'd I miss?" He asked. "Nothing, Kakashi was just late again." Sasuke informed him. "I got lost on the road of li-"

"Used that one before." Sakura informed him before he finished. Kakashi frowned thinking. "A black cat crossed my-"Sasuke hnned, "You used that one before too." Naruto blinked up at him, "can't you at least be original?" he asked unimpressed. Kakashi would later say that he was about to respond with a great comeback that would have wowed the three of them, but whether he was going o or not was interrupted by the world changing.

The sky flashed red for a second, the trees dying, and the warm air cold and then it was gone as quickly as it had come. But the ground was shaking and a heavy sense killing intent seemed to be coming from everywhere. Naruto closed his eyes against the feeling trying to calm his chakra from trying to defend himself. Sasuke was flinch seemingly to afraid to move. Sakura was shaking in fear, her eyes clenched.

Kakashi caught himself before he fell, the last time he had felt killing intent like this was when the kyuubi attacked, but Naruto was sitting in front of him. Kakashi turned; the killing intent was coming from outside the gate. So intent on reaching what was causing the intent he didn't realize until he was half way there that his genin were following him. He thought about sending them back but decided that it would take up time that they might not have.

They were the second team there, Gai was checking through the trees already. A glance between the Jonins and a nod showed the seriousness. For once the green beast of Konoha wasn't loudly yelling about his eternal rival.

Neji Hyuuga jumped down from a tree nearby. He glanced over at team Kakashi and a slight sneer appeared on his face but he quickly turned to his sensei, "It's a large group of people that the intent seems to be coming from. They seem to be worried about something." Neji frowned, "They have tents down and most of them seem to be civilians, how did they get so close without us picking up on them?" he asked his teacher. Gai frowned before smiling, much too large, "WHAT A GOOD QUESTIAN MY YOUTHFAL STUDENT!" He exclaimed youthfully.

Kakashi felt his student flinch from behind him. They hadn't met Gai yet had they? Well this would be- "The killing intent is gone!" Naruto stated. Kakashi blinked, it was, and it had disappeared as if it had never been there in the first place. "We need to find who it was coming from." Kakashi stated, "And how they got so close without us picking them up." He stated with a nod to the Hyuuga boy.

Sakura frowned, thinking. "Why don't we just ask them?" she blushed as she saw everyone was staring at her. "Well I mean from what he-"she nodded towards Neji, "said they don't sound like they're mounting an attack."

The girl on the side of Gai frowned, "but if they are planning an attack it could get messy," she stated glancing through the trees. "We would be in a lot of trouble if they are hostile." The Gai-look-alike smiled large, "Do not worry TenTen I would protect you and our youthful allies!" The girl twitched and grasped a kunai as a reflex.

Naruto frowned and Sasuke glared at the green wearing boy, Sakura was to busy staring at his eye brows in horror. A rustle though the trees distracted all of them from the boys rising anger. The all turned falling into fighting poses, Kakashi and Gai taking their place at the front of the genin.

A black haired man jumped through the trees to land just in front of the teams. He had short black hair and shirt that showed his stomach. His skin was grayish and he looked young, maybe just eighteen.

He glanced at the teams not looking surprised to see them. He glanced over all of them, seeming to glare slightly at Sasuke, before his eyes fell on Naruto.

"It worked," he stated staring at Naruto, "He did it."
