Chapter 1: How It all began.
Naruto's P.O.V...
'Alright! We finally get a C - Rank mission!' I look over at my teammates, Sakura is hanging off of Sasuke, Sasuke has pleading and happiness in his eyes, the latter is most likely caused because of the mission and the pleading... well, Im sure you can guess. "Sakura - Chan! Are you excited for the mission? I am super excited, I mean, I still wish it was something cooler like sa-" I get hit in the head like usual by the largest forehead ive EVER seen. "Shaddup Naruto! No one wants to listen to your weird fantasies!" I feel a bit dejected for a moment but I hide it quickly with a almost to big grin.
"Alright Team 7, go and pack for a weak long trip. Sakura, no makeup or hair products or nail products or... you get the point. Sasuke stop brooding, and Naruto... pack the bare essentials. I frown slightly at that but I let it go and hop off to my apartment ninja style, once there I grab the scrolls that have enough supplies for a week including a tent, sleeping bag, jerky, matches, extra kunai and shuriken, explosive notes, low level barrier seals and extra clothes. I put it on my bed and open my closet and dress in darker clothes, (Think Minato, but without his cloak and its black instead of blue) tying my Hitiate around my neck. I grab a dark red sleeveless vest and slip it on over my shirt, zipping it up I grab the scroll and place it inside the pouch tied to my leg. I wrap half way up my legs with white tape and slip on my ninja sandals, standing back up I enable the barrier seals and close the door. I jump from roof to roof and soon enough I'm at the gates, I spot Kakashi in one of the trees and land beside him. I suppose he senses my presence and looks over "When did you get here?" I give him a closed- eye smile and I here him gasp lightly "Just now." I look back over at my teammates and stand up. I slip off the back of the branch and catch myself with my hands before swinging and jumping down "Kakashi is here, we just have to wait for the client." they were both staring at me with shocked faces. I look at them and a bead of sweat drips down my face and I give a small smile "What?" I see Sakuras mouth open but before she can say anything the client shows up.
A couple hours later...
We are in Diamond formation, I am at the front, Sasuke and Sakura are at the side and Kakashi is in the back. It covers all sides of the client... Is that a puddle? But it hasnt.. oooh.. act normal. I glance back, the double s haven't noticed but I can see the realization in Kakashis eyes, we pass the puddle and soon enough the genjutsu is broken and Kakashi is ripped apart, revealing sliced up wood. Mkay, I stare at the wood, then look at our attackers as Sakura screams bloody murder. I raise my eye brows and smile "Oh! Look, its the demon brothers of the mist! Usually wherever you are your friend Zabuza is close to follow." I stare at them and they look at eachother before shrugging and running at my teammates, I intercept before they can make it and grab Gozus chain and wrap it around his brothers neck. I then kick Mezu and punch Gozu apart causing the chain to tighten and knocking them both out. I brush off my shoulder and then grab the chain, pulling towards a tree and tying the brothers to it with ninja wire. I let out a breath and looked over at my teammates, they had looks of shock again and I shrugged. I then look over at the client "This was supposed to be a C - Rank mission, that states that the most we would run into is bandits; not missing-nin. So why are there missing-nin after you? Did Gatorade hire them? oops, sorry I meant Gato." I crossed my arms and give him that look, the one that says: Get-on-my-nerves-or-lie-and-we-are-done-here. He broke pretty quickly, he continued on to say how Gato has taken their money and took over most of the business' leading to poverty and starvation in save as well as the mercenaries that take women from time time and bring them back crying, sometimes even children. He also tells us about how he has a daughter and grandson who's dad got killed by Gato and that he couldn't pay for a high enough mission with what the other villagers put together. I rub my face "This is way beyond our pay grade, continuing on would guarantee a run in with Zabuza. Kakashi - sensei, what do you think?" the double s' look at me weirdly. He pops out of the trees making them both swivel to face the 'Dead kakashi' only to see a log in splinters. "Good work Naruto. You didn't freeze up at all! However," He looks at the double s' "You two where to slow and almost got yourselves and the client killed. Since Naruto took it upon himself to interrogate Tazuna-san himself and we all heard his explanation, would you two like to continue? Sakura answer first." They stood there in silence and when Sasuke was about to glare at her to pressure her I slapped him and whispered "No peer pressure!" Sakura moved from foot to foot and played with her hands "Um, well... I don't think I am strong enough Kakashi sensei. But Naruto and Sasuke-kun are, I can go back and get backup..." I stared at Sakura in shock before blinking. I look at Kakashi "If you want I can provide a team of clones that look like us so she isn't alone on the way back." Kakashi looks to be thinking it over before nodding "Good choice Sakura, and good idea Naruto. When you get back to the village make sure to go to the Hokage right away and say its an emergency." Sakura nods and I make the clones that then transform into Kakashi and Sasuke, leaving one to look like me. "Alright, you three are to escort Sakura back to the village. Once there wait for Sakura to explain to the guards that you are shadow clones then disperse. Got it?" A chorus of "Got it boss" came from the three as they settled into their identities. Kakashi looked at them closely "Are you sure those aren't our own clones? They even act like us..." I chuckle "Yup, everything is copied. Even down to the fine print." He swung his had to me and I nodded "You sly little child.. teach me your ways. Please! I beg of you!"
