"Where is he?" Naruto groaned, not as energetic as usual.
Kakashi was just walking up to them, reading his book, with a girl following him. The girl had long, silver hair, that almost seemed angelic, and icy blue eyes that seemed to pierce into the soul of whoever she was looking at. She wore long black pants and a light blue kimono-style top. Instead of wearing her hitai-ate on her forehead, she wore it around her arm
'Wow.' Naruto thought. 'She's pretty.'
"This is your new teammate, Nakamura Naomi."
"I'm Uzumaki Naruto!" Naruto yelled.
"Uchiha Sasuke." Sasuke muttered without looking up.
"It's nice to meet you two." Naomi answered, smiling. "When do we start my first mission, Kakashi-sensei?"
"Today." Kakashi answered. "Let me explain it first. You're going to have to find a lost cat."
"Again?" Naruto complained. "We've done this before, why again? And can we please do something more exciting?"
"For now you'll be sticking to D-rank missions. Let Naomi warm up to these missions, then you guys can do harder ones. Anyway, the owner of the cat says that her cat ran into the forest over there. I'll keep an eye on you so the little kitty doesn't kill any of you."
Kakashi watched the genins walk away, and pulled out his book. Naruto talked (a/n: I think the proper word would be flirted) with Naomi as they walked towards the forest. Sasuke just walked off to the side, his arms crossed and his eyes closed. When they got into the forest, they looked around them, but there didn't seem to be any cat within a 100-foot radius. When they listened, they could only hear the chirping of birds.
"Here, kitty!" Naomi called.
"Neko-chan!" Naruto called. "Come out!"
Naomi walked a little deeper into the forest, and suddenly stopped dead in her tracks. She looked around, and stared at something on the ground.
"A trap..." she muttered. "It's a good thing that squirrel up there warned me."
"Did you just say something about a squirrel?" Sasuke asked.
"Yea. The squirrel told me about the trap down here. It's really well hidden. I wonder who put it here, though?"
"Whatcha guys lookin' at?" Naruto called, running straight towards the trap.
Sasuke put out his arm to stop Naruto. "It's called a trap, baka."
"Why would there be a trap here?"
"That's what we're trying to figure out."
"Maybe we should tell Kakashi about this?" Naomi suggested.
"But what about the mission?" Naruto complained.
"Well, if there is someone else here, we should tell our sensei." Naomi said calmly.
"Fine."
The three genin rushed out of the forest, but couldn't find where they had originally came into the forest. They seemed to be going in circles. They were lost.
Sorry that this is really short, but I wanted a cliffy. Anyway, just so everyone knows, I really hate freeloaders, and I love replies. I consider flames to be helpful, so give me your worst. But I also love compliments.
