Prologue
"Hokage-sama, you wanted to see me?" a voice said from the shadows.
"Ahh, I was wondering when you'd show up. I've been waiting for over an hour now," said the Hokage as she turned to face the voice.
"Sorry, I was helping Hinata move into our new house," the voice said.
"Hmm…well I don't want to get on her bad side. She IS a woman after all."
'Too true Hokage-sama,' thought the person in the shadows.
" I have an assignment for you, if you are willing to accept, of course."
"When have I ever refused an assignment, Hokage-sama?" the voice asked.
"Do you really want me to answer that? Because I highly doubt you do," retorted the Hokage.
"Touché…anyway what's the assignment Hokage-sama?"
"It's a retrieval mission, something of the greatest value has been stolen from the Daimyo, and he has requested for you to personally retrieve it for him. You are, after all his nephew, right Naruto?"
Naruto sighed, "nephew once-removed, but yes, I am his nephew. Who is my team Baa-chan?"
Tsunade face-faulted at the sudden informality, 'Baa-chan,' she got up from behind her desk and stalked over to Naruto with the intent to kill.
"OOOWWWWWWW!!!!!!" Naruto complained as he got his left ear practically ripped off as she threw him through the door.
"How many times have I told you not to call me Baa-chan?" she asked him while she dragged him back into her office by the same ear she threw him out. "Your team is yours to choose, and since this is a mission of utmost importance you may choose 5 others for two three man cells, understood, Naruto?"
Naruto was rubbing his ear while nodding his head vigorously.
"Good, now leave I have paperwork to do."
"Seeya…Baa-chan!" Naruto yelled as he jumped out the window, leaving a furious Tsunade, and a very confused shizune, who had just walked through the door.
