Konoha
It had been two days since Sakura had received the news of her brother and a few other shinigami coming to the village. Shortly after she had left the hokage tower she had left to get the necessary items she would need in her house before the group arrived.
She had made sure that she had plenty of food knowing more than likely that Naruto, his guest, and a few others would more than likely come to her house to eat and hang out.
She had double checked that the guest bedrooms were clean and had new sheets on them as well as fresh towels in the bathrooms across the hall. Another of the tasks that she had made sure of was that Naruto had cleaned his apartment and had more than ramen and spoiled milk in his refrigerator.
She stopped and recalled how long it had taken her and the combined forces of Naruto, Sai, and Kakashi to clean the disaster zone and how sore and tired they were after. To say the least, it took well into the night to accomplish the feat.
According to her mentor, the shinigami group that included her brother were arriving sometime today. And because of that she was in an extremely good mood and it would take a great deal of things to turn it around, but nothing is impossible when her team is in the picture either.
She had changed into her new training outfit and placed her weapons pouches on before heading down to the kitchen. There she had a quick breakfast and put on her shinobi boots and headed out the door. The door closed with a small 'click' and was locked. Turning to the direction of their training grounds she gave a small smile and was on her way.
It was a fairly sunny day with a few clouds in the sky here and there. Sakura didn't doubt the fact that Naruto was probably just now finishing his breakfast of ramen and on his way as well. It was likely that Sai was already there and sketching something. Her perverted former sensei was most likely reading his smutty book and taking his time wandering around Konoha.
Within a few minutes the training grounds came into view along with her onyx haired teammate. He was sitting on a low branch of one of the trees that was next to the red bridge. He would stare intently off into the distance in the direction of Konoha's markets and then back to his sketch book and would add more to his artwork.
A small smile made its way onto Sakura's face as she walked over to the tree and leaned against it. A light breeze blew her cherry locks back behind her face and a faint "Sakura-chan!" could be heard as well.
With her keen shinobi senses Sakura dodged Naruto's lung crushing hug as he shortly came into contact with the tree she was just previously by. Sai had also seen the blonde coming in their direction and had jumped from his perch just milliseconds before contact between Naruto and the tree had occurred.
Sakura sighed and gracefully made her way over to her loud mouthed teammate who was currently rubbing his nose trying to regain the feeling that had left that portion of his face. He soon regretted it though as the numbness wore off and a stinging pain replaced it. Sakura let a sigh escape her lips and summoned a small amount of chakra to her hand before bringing her hand up to his nose and healing it.
Naruto smiled at his female teammate before hugging her, "Thank you! Thank you! Thank you Sakura-chan!"
Sakura sighed, "You're welcome Naruto." A few seconds had passed and he was still rambling on and on about what ever he could think of to tell his teammate about.
'I thought that after a few minutes he would get the hint and let go.'
'Well, don't give him to much credit he is considered to be an idiot.'
'I know but right now he's starting to kill my good mood and he's about ready to get the beating of his life.'
Inner Sakura chuckled evilly, 'Yes yes, he is about to face our wrath and Kakashi isn't here to stop us either. Isn't that so very convenient.'
As Naruto kept rambling on he failed to notice the extreme change in his female teammate's aura. He faintly began to notice it though when she turned her head to face him.
"Naruto."
Naruto gulped as he finally took in the killing intent of the aura that was surrounding the immediate area. He slowly moved out of the embrace and cautiously took a few steps back. Sakura's head was facing the ground and her bangs covered her heart shaped face blocking the view of her facial expression.
She slowly lifted her head allowing her bangs to gently sweep against her face and move back into place on either side of her face. If you looked into her eyes you most likely would see that the normally bright emerald green eyes of the kunoichi were now a darker emerald and had what looked to be like flames dancing across her irises.
Naruto smiled sheepishly and took a side step before pumping chakra into his legs and running as fast as he could to get away from his sister-like friend.
Panic filled him and the Kyuubi just sat there contently making comments on the situation and laughing completely enjoying the show placed in front of him.
Sai just sat there and watched as his teammates were running throughout the entire training grounds and they still were most likely going to have to wait on their ever late leader.
This continued for the next ten or so minutes before Naruto was caught and was given his punishment from his rosette teammate. When everything was all said and done he came out with a black and blue eye, a newly damaged nose, and quite a few bruises.
Sakura left the blonde in a heap on the ground and walked over to the middle of the bridge and sat down on the railing. Sai just turned his attention back to his sketch book and continued on his newest piece.
About an hour later Naruto had been mostly healed thanks to the Kyuubi's chakra but was it was still easy to see he had gotten beaten by his female teammate. He summoned enough energy and dragged himself over to the bridge and dropped unceremoniously in the middle of it.
Sakura rolled her eyes and shook her head while Sai just glanced up from his book. The breeze grew a little and a 'poof' of smoke could now be seen. There stood Kakashi the copy cat ninja reading one of the books from his favorite series.
Without withdrawing his attention from the orange book he raised his hand up and gave his greeting of "Yo."
Sai put away his sketch book and just stood there blankly staring at the silver haired jonin. Sakura's temper began to flare a little here and there. Naruto on the other hand let out a muffled version of "You're late!"
'Ugh! Okay that's it! My good mood has officially left the building!'
'Stupid pervert. Ugh, I guess we will just have to let out all of our frustration and anger on our teammates during training.'
'Yeah, then we should be in a decent mood when Renji gets here.'
Kakashi after a while of not hearing anything coming out of three nins' mouths for the past few moments looked up from his book and was met with three different sights before him.
The first he came across was Sai. The artist nin was just standing there stiffly and staring at him with blank onyx eyes.
'Okay, that's just the usual response from him.'
Next his eyes landed on the only female teammate of the group. She was currently glaring between Naruto and himself.
'Hm, well it looks like Naruto ruined what ever mood she was in already and she isn't too happy about how late I am today.'
He then followed Sakura's gaze and was met with the sight of Naruto sprawled across the bridge. Just by taking a quick glance at the Kyuubi boy he could tell that he had received quite the beating.
'Typical Naruto. I wonder what he did now to anger our very own mini Tsunade.'
Kakashi chuckled nervously and put his hand behind his head. "Sorry I'm late everyone, I had to help an old lady across the street and put her groceries away."
Sakura's left eyebrow started to twitch at the obvious lie that had been used countless times. "Kakashi, you better have a better explanation than that pathetic excuse."
He sighed and decided to get on with team training for the day.
"Okay guys, we will go ahead and have a two on two training session today. Uh, Sai you and Naruto will be one team and Sakura and I will be the other."
They nodded in understanding and took opposite sides of the training ground's clearing. Sakura lowered herself into a comfortable fighting stance and inhaled deeply before releasing the breathe and smiling ready to beat the shit out of someone. Preferably and most likely Naruto.
Naruto became uneasy when he saw the look on Sakura's face. Sai had also noticed and gave Naruto a fake smile.
"Well dickless, ugly looks like she's going to kill you. At least try to stay up for the first five seconds of the spar."
Naruto looked back angrily at his teammate and yelled, "I bet I can stay in longer than you can bastard!"
Sai's fake smile grew, "I doubt that dickless."
Naruto's eyes narrowed a bit, "Why I ought to..."
Sakura's temper was beginning to flare even more if possible. "Will the two of you idiots shut up and get ready to face your doom already!"
Kakashi's lone eye widened a bit, Sakura was extremely angry today.
'Well it is a good thing that I put her with me then. I would hate to be receiving her wrath today. I was pretty sure she was in a good mood earlier. Oh well, that just means that I can let her take her temper out on them and I can read my book.'

Soul Society
Toshiro sighed impatiently as they waited on the last remaining person who was assigned to this mission to arrive. He was somewhat pleased that he had told her earlier than their scheduled time so that in case something like this would happen they wouldn't be late.
Unfortunately though Rangiku was later than what he had told everyone else. He would give her ten more minutes before he began the man hunt.
Minutes later
It was approaching the ten minute time limit that he had placed for his fuku taichou to get to the requested destination. She had exactly fifteen more seconds before the man hunt would begin.
The seconds ticked by quickly, there were only seven more seconds left. As he silently counted down the few remaining seconds he was becoming more angry at Matsumoto. He had told her to be ready a few hours earlier than everyone else and she was still late.
Just as he was about ready to order everyone to split up to find the missing shinigami a huge dust cloud could be seen approaching the immediate area. Upon further inspection you could make out a shinigami with strawberry blonde hair running directly toward them.
Rukia and Toshiro side stepped to dodge the on coming shinigami bullet that was gaining speed by the second. Ichigo and Renji on the other hand weren't paying attention and didn't notice the tenth division's fuku taichou heading directly for them until it was too late.
A cloud of dust rose up into the air and blocked the view of the three victims. The sound of someone coughing could be heard and soon the dust settled back down.
A mass of tangled limbs were all that could currently be seen. Rukia giggled at the sight while Toshiro just became more annoyed and sighed. Eventually Ichigo's head was seen and he began to cough mini puffs of dirt out of his mouth.
Renji then popped his head up and gasped for breath. Rangiku was perfectly fine, her limbs were only tangled up. She wasn't lacking air or had a mouth full of dirt. Slowly they started to untangle themselves with some help from Rukia and Toshiro here and there.
A few minutes later
Ichigo, Renji, and Rangiku were back up on their feet and had dusted all the dirt they could off of them. Toshiro then coughed to get everyone's attention.
"Now that everyone is here and is ready to leave, Matsumoto open the door."
Rangiku nodded and went along with the task she was given. Soon a large round rice screen door appeared in front of the group. The doors slowly opened and Toshiro made his way over to it. The group then followed the captain's actions and stepped forward and through the newly opened passage.

Konoha
Toshiro stepped into a large office that smelled of sake. Apparently the leader of this village and Rangiku were going to get along just fine. Soon enough the rest of his team came through the portal like doors. As soon as Rangiku stepped out of the doorway the doors began to slide shut once again.
The sound of a door shutting could be heard soon after. A woman who had short black hair carrying a pig had entered the large office. She gave the new comers a smile.
"Ah, you five must be the shinigami that will be staying here for a while. My name is Shizune."
Toshiro glanced at her and nodded, "Yes we are. May I ask where Tsunade is?"
The woman who had identified herself as Shizune had told them to take a seat while she went to go find the hokage.
Rangiku and Rukia had sat down on chairs that were placed in front of a large desk. Ichigo and Renji were leaning against the wall nearest them and were talking about random things while Toshiro had moved over to a large window that over looked part of the village.
A few minutes had passed by when the door that Shizune had previously disappeared through had opened. A busty blonde walked through the doorway with Shizune trailing in behind her.
The woman walked across the room and behind the desk before taking her place in the seat behind it. She pulled out a beige colored folder from one of the many drawers of the desk and sat it down on the glass top. She folded her hands together and rested her elbows on the desk before setting her chin on top of her hands.
"You are the group of shinigami that Yamamoto-taichou sent?"
Toshiro moved from his previous position and walked closer to the desk.
"Yes, I am Hitsugaya-taichou the leader of this mission. And you must be the hokage of this village."
Tsunade looked at the snowy haired taichou. 'Hm, so this is the child genius that Yamamoto had told me about.'
She looked around and studied the other shinigami in the room. 'I have a feeling that things will get quite interesting for a while.'
"Yes, I am the hokage. Welcome to Konoha, the village hidden among the leaves. I will summon your hosts here in a moment. Which one of you would be Rangiku Matsumoto?"
Rangiku smiled and gave a small smile.
Tsunade nodded, "Very well, you will be staying with Shizune."
Rangiku smiled and walked over and began talking animatedly to Shizune.
Tsunade then looked through the folder and found the group's profiles. She quickly scanned through and put faces with names.
She closed the folder back up and called for a chunin to report to her office. A few moments later a boy who was about fourteen or so walked into the office and stood in front of Tsunade.
"You summoned for me hokage-sama?"
The blonde woman nodded, "Yes I need you to go to training ground three and tell the members of team Kakashi that they are being summoned to my office."
The young nin nodded and walked out of his leader's office and began his search for the famed team Kakashi.
After running through the busy streets of his village he finally came across the team he was searching for. He noticed that it looked as if they were about ready to start a spar.
'I got here at the right time. I would hate trying to get their attention if they had already started.' The boy involuntarily shivered.
"Kakashi-san, Tsunade-sama requests you and your team's presence in her office."
Kakashi rose from his fighting stance and nodded at him. "Very well, you may continue with your duties."
The nin nodded and was gone seconds later. Kakashi pulled out his book, "Alright team, it looks like we'll have to train some other time. Let's get to the hokage's tower."
Sai and Naruto eased out of their stances and stood up. Naruto looked at his rosette teammate and cautiously walked over towards her. Sakura unwillingly stood upright and started on her way towards her mentor's office.
Not even half way to the tower, Naruto and Sai had managed to get Sakura to snap and were now running towards Tsunade's office fearing for their lives even though the kunoichi wouldn't kill them. Just pound them severely enough to the point that they'd be off the mission rosters for a good amount of time.
Sai and Naruto rounded the corner of the street with the tower only a few hundred meters away from them. Sakura was hot on their tails while Kakashi was a few hundred meters behind her innocently reading his book.
Naruto slammed the door open to the main lobby of the building and started to make his way up the stairs with Sai right behind him.
Not even seconds later Sakura was also going up the stairs tearing after two of her male teammates. Sai and Naruto reached the top of the stairs and were running down the hallway. Sai had somehow gotten in front of the blonde.
Naruto grinned. 'Almost there!'
Then he heard a growl of anger and paled somewhat. The Kyuubi was chuckling at the helpless blonde and ranting on about how stupid he was and how he was really in for it this time.
In Tsunade's office
The occupants turned their attention towards the closed office door when they heard thundering foot steps and a growl coming towards them.
Shizune went and opened the door stepping out of the way when she saw the scene.
In the hallway
Sakura had caught up to her teammates and grinned in victory, they weren't going to get away from her this time.
'SHOW THEM WHAT WE'VE GOT! CHAAAAA!'
Sakura grinned even more at her inner's encouragement and brought her fist back. She didn't enhance it with chakra because she still wanted them in one piece.
She threw her fist forward and collided with Naruto's back. Naruto then proceeded to collide with Sai. They were about to hit the door when a surprised Shizune opened it and immediately backed up to avoid being hit.
The boys then flew into the room creating a large gust of wind and the shinigami in the room turned their heads as the watched their path of travel. The two nin collided into the wall opposite of the door and after a few seconds started to slowly slide to the floor.
Tsunade sighed and sweat dropped at the sight as Shizune worriedly ran over to check and make sure they were fine. The occupants in the room turned their heads once again to the doorway when a masculine chuckle was heard.
Two shadows could be seen approaching. The first figure walked into the room and appeared to be smiling but it was hard to tell for the shinigami since a mask covered his face.
"I don't think you had to hit them that hard Sakura."
The second figure who he was talking to came into the room and huffed. "I don't think I hit them that hard Kakashi."
The figure who was identified as Kakashi smiled again.
Toshiro lifted an eyebrow at her. So this was Renji's younger sister. He had to admit Renji's description of her didn't do her much justice.
