It was a rainy day in the middle of nowhere. All I knew was that I was stuck in the forest, my sense of direction fumbled immensely, where this damned village is I will never know. I wasn't ever any good at directions in the first place and this was just ridiculous. I was antsy, bored and confused out of my mind. Recently attacked by a group of random old bandits had filled me to the brim with energy. Wanderers would stumble upon the bodies and wonder what happened to the eyes of the victims

I pulled out my map from under my sash, glaring at the big red X on the paper. Damn thing didn't tell me which way my destination was. Non the less I kept walking, not really keeping my guard up for anything. My blue and white hair got snagged on a twig while I wasn't looking though and I accidentally chopped the whole big branch.

Days turned to nights, nights to days. Eventually I found the big gates to the hidden tree or leaf whatever village. My meager, thin, 19 year old body didn't seem to attract any negative attention. Though people did stare at my intercate jade mask. It was beautiful after all. My left eye was covered even under the mask with a medical eye patch. I wore all black with a long black silk robe over all my skin tight clothes and strips of random bandages. I looked up to where the big man's office was. It was amazing how anyone could walk in. Though I did sense a presence to the left of me. I looked over with my covered eye and spotted part of an orange book. Then I saw the man it belonged to.

That mask and eye would be mine. Well that is if I'm not accepted into this village. It seemed my name was whispered around under breath throughout villages. Quite annoying if you ask me. If I was accepted I would have to spare that guys life. Oh well.

As soon as I saw him I was striding over to him. It seemed he was a mile away, his glance never left the book. That deep black eye. Not a fan of the left eye but I was quite intrigued that he had it covered. What did that one look like? I imagine he thought I was a bit creepy. My body swayed strangely, I could tell he was looking out of the corner of his eye.

Finally I was up to him. Still he didn't look up. I let my umbrella drop to the ground, the rain pooling inside of it and causing my clothes to stick tighter then they already were.

"Hello, I'm looking for the hokage, would you happen to know where I could find him?" I asked putting my hand on my hip.

"Why do you ask me and not the hundreds of other people down the street?" He asked. Our eyes met. His deep ink black eye bore into my snow white one. It was quite humorous, though I tried not to laugh at the serious moment….

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!" I fell on my butt and slapped my knee I was laughing so hard. The man looked at me strangely as I helped myself back up.

"…. uh…." He was sort of dumbfounded at my light heartedness.

"Yeah, but seriously. I need to speak to your hokage as soon as possible." I grinned under my mask unable to help myself.

"That building over there…" He didn't bother to mess with me anymore. Just though I was weird I suppose. Swiftly I picked up my umbrella and was on my way. Halfway up the stairs I started to grumble.

"Too many stairs…"

*****************************************

The hokage didn't seem to mind my horrible profile. Though he did say he was going to do a thorough background check. I never killed any innocents so I should be ok.

"Seriously, I have no where to live. I swear my life to you I'm not a spy or whatever." I pleaded.

"I already said yes miss Henteko Hideki. Are you sure you want me to address you like that?" he asked, I nodded.

"Ok, so what is my job then mister hokage dude." I smiled under my mask and took a seat.

"Well we are short of a squad sensei… so I suppose you'll be teaching little kids how to be ninja. I'll give you a sheet for the rules and such. Oh, and I assume you wont mind showing me your face?" He asked. A bit startled at the request I nodded.

"I'll take it off during class time, don't ask me to take off my eye patch though." I smiled took off my jade mask.

"Why do you keep that mask on?" He asked. I shrugged.

"All the cool kids do it." I winked my one eye. He chuckled.

"Well I suppose they do."

"It wouldn't be bothersome to keep it off though, as long as I belong to a village I don't mind letting people know what I look like. Outside of the gates though forget it." I grinned. Our chuckling echoed through the room. Finally we finished up and he told me my apartment number, I had a big stack of paperwork to fill out.

My stomach gurgled the words "hungry" to me. I giggled to myself as I walked down the street, a few people gave me a strange look. So I had three days to situate myself before my job started. Guess I get to teach to three noob little, snot nosed, annoying, whiney brats. Oh joy. Though I spose it could be fun bossing them around a bit. I grinned to myself thinking about three little boys that I could make fun of and push them around. Play around in the mud, smash bugs and roughing it in the outdoors.

The apartment was a tad bit dusty. I set my bag down on my new bed and opened it up. I set three jars wrapped in black velvet onto a shelf, then I set my few sets of clothes in the closet. My pair of lace up doc martins in there as well. Not really ninja boots but they were my favorites non the less. There was all my bathing necessities and such in the pleasant sized bathroom cabnets. The kitchen was full of the basics. No top notch cooking supplies here, no crazy ass spices either…. Oh well.

I took a well needed shower and made some fried rice to eat while I skimmed over my paperwork. I noted that this village was a very peaceful place, no killing, no bullying ect. I laughed at the part where there were to be no batteries flung at peoples heads. Wonder when that happened. A ring emitted my small apartment. Must be the doorbell.

Quickly I ran and grabbed my robe, tying it around my small waist. I twisted the door knob and opened it to a small crowd of people, it surprised me a bit and I jumped back in surprise.

"Uh…. Hello?" I asked. I saw that silver haired ninja from before. One girl and three guys.

"Hi I'm Kurenai," The girl shook my hand. I smiled sweetly at her.

"Nice to meet you." She had long black hair and was very pretty.

"Hello miss," The man shook my hand like a crazed monkey on crack. "I'm Guy, it's a pleasure to be in your company!" He bowed and I chuckled.

"O'course." The next guy had spiky black hair and was smoking a cig.

"Ey, I'm Asuma Sarutobi, nice to meet cha." We shook hands as well. I looked over at the silver haired dude from before. He didn't step up or anything.

"What about you dude?" I pointed at him.

"Kakashi." He muttered in a low tone.

"Well thanks for coming all the way over here to introduce yourselves. I'm Henteko Hideki, It's a pleasure to meet all of you." I smiled. They all smiled back in response.

"Would you like to go out for some Sake or something?" Gai asked excitedly. Of course if alcohol is involved I'm in, my face lit up.

"I love Sake!" I giggled. "Give me one second to change please. You can make yourselves at home." I opened my door wider and rushed to my room. I pulled on some tight pants a shirt and my boots and slammed my door shut. I was out of the front door in a matter of seconds.

"Who wants to race!? Kakashi!?" Gai immediately challenged anyone up to it. An evil grin formed on my face.

"Oh, you'll regret that challenge."

"Oh really…" Gai smiled, his tooth glinting.

"One,"

"Two,"

"THREE!!!" We both raced off, leaving dust in the crowd of peoples faces. Guy and I were nose to nose, foot to foot, hand to hand, it was almost like a mirror. I didn't even know where the Sake place was. Soon I saw a big sign with the words "liquor" on it. Both of us dove for the entrance in one last push.

"I WON" we yelled. In reality it was a tie, but like hell I was going to admit it.

As soon as we arrived we were drunk. Well me and Guy were. Kurenai was on a diet or something and Asuma was right up there with us. Kakashi stayed in the back all boring and reading his book and what not.

"KARAOKE!!" Guy broke out the microphone and we sang to some random ass songs.

"COME JOIN US!!!" We laughed till we couldn't breathe.

After we got kicked out Guy had issues walking home, I attempted to help him walk but he kept making me fall too. Kurenai and Asuma helped him home while I stumbled alone to my house. It took me a second to remember that I forgot my key. There is always a way in though, that's my motto. So like every other normal person I smashed my window to pieces and climbed in, only cutting my hands up a little. My floor was comfortable enough to sleep on, so I passed out immediately.

********************************

Kakashi decided to stop at the store before going home. His stomach hurt from the alcohol so he decided to buy some food to settle it. The store was going to close soon so he had to hurry as quick as he could, you know those store owners bend the time to what they fell like.

The young lady who worked at the cash register always had a thing for Kakashi. She almost crapped her pants when he walked in. His long muscular legs, pale skin and ashen hair made her practically melt into the counter.

"Can I help you find anything sir?" She piped up, blushing slightly. Her long auburn hair caressed her hips and her bright chocolate eyes were full of passion. Kakashi looked over at the pretty girl, a small smile forming on his face. She had the cutest face ever. And she had a job. That is always a plus.

"Um, where is your… uh… soba noodle things at?" He asked scratching the back of his head. She sauntered from behind the desk and showed him where the instant soba was. He grinned and thanked her.

"See you around." She waved bye to him, he waved as well. After he was out of range a sigh escaped from his mouth.

"If I went out with her I would feel like a child molester…" He mumbled to himself. "ow." his stomach lurched and he bent over. A moment later he was walking up the stairs to his apartment. Then he noticed his window was continently shattered, blood dripping from the sharp edges. Was it a burglar? He pulled a kunai out for safe keeping and set his bag down on the ground.

***************************

I awoke to yelling. My first instinct was to kill whatever was making the noise. Even though I'm amune to hangovers I still get really sleepy after drinking.

"What the hell!?" I yelled opening my eyes, it was not yelling. In fact it was an alarm clock. I wasn't in my house… I looked up and saw a sleeping blonde boy, he slammed his fist on the ringing contraption and rolled back over, not even noticing my presence. Slowly, I got to my feet and soundlessly went to the open window. Crawling out I noticed my hands were scabbed up and smeared with dry blood. "The hell?" I inspected my hands all the while jumping out to the floor below.
