The next morning, Sakura awakens to find a fox sleeping in her arms and Sparrow nowhere to be found. As she stands up, the fox awakens and starts wandering around the campsite. "What is that fox up to? Speaking of which, what is that Sparrow guy's obsession with foxes anyway?" The fox stops wandering around and transforms into Sparrow. "I'm not that obsessed wi-" Sparrow is interrupted by a slap to the face so hard it sends him flying over 50 feet away. "You pervert!" Sakura screams, obviously angry about Sparrow's choice of bedding. "How dare you!" Sakura turns her gaze to Naruto, who has just been awakened by her screaming. "And you! How could you fall asleep! You were supposed to be on guard duty!" After about 5 minutes of screaming at Naruto and Sparrow, Sakura calms down. "Wait a minute. How were you able to perform a Genjutu in your sleep?" "Genjutsu? What are you talking about?" "You transformed into that fox, that's a Genjutsu isn't it?" "What? That's not a Genjutsu silly girl, I actually transformed. My ki... I mean, My clan can all do that."

Later that day, while the ninja are en route to Kanoha, Sparrow stops abruptly, wincing as if in serious pain. "I have to go, could you summon me when you get to your village?" He throws a summoning scroll to Sakura and runs off before he could get an answer. As the Leaf Ninja go on their way, they start debating whether it is a good idea to summon such a shady ninja. When they finally reach Kanoha, still not coming to a conclusion on the issue of whether or not to summon Sparrow, the ninja head directly to Hokage Tower. Naruto is the first to arrive and, as always, bursts into the Hokage's chamber with no regard of what may be waiting on the other side. "Granny Tsunade we're back!" Tsunade doesn't even look up from her paperwork as she responds calmly. "Can't you see I'm busy Naruto? Come back later." Sakura and Sai show up a few seconds later and Tsunade decides to give up on her paperwork for now, saying its hard enough to do without Naruto screaming at her. After about 15 minutes of Sakura informing the Hokage about the mission and Naruto constantly interrupting to say how totally awesome he was, Sai brings up the Sparrow issue, and Tsunade tells them to summon him, after she takes a few precautions.

About 10 minutes later, after Gai and Kakashi show up as ordered by Tsunade, Sakura begins to summon Sparrow. While she is performing the summoning jutsu, Naruto glances at the now open scroll. "Naruto, I know that scroll. This is no ordinary ninja, keep your guard up." The Kyuubi warns as Sparrow appears, wearing his fox mask. "Hello miss Hokage, Naruto, Sakura, Sai, and creepy dudes. How are you?" Gai and Kakashi seem offended by the creepy dude statement, but they remain silent as Tsunade interrogates the freshly summoned ninja. "Who are you and what do you hope to achieve by coming here?" Sparrow doesn't respond, he just stares into the Hokage's eyes. "Answer me when I ask you something, and take that mask off" Sparrow begins to take his mask off, laughing. "You know miss Hokage, I could say the same to you. What about your mask? You haven't looked like that in years." If not for the shock that Sparrow looked almost exactly like Naruto, Tsunade would have punched him hard enough to put almost anyone on their death bed. "How dare you say that! How do you know about that anyway, I've never even seen you in my life!" After Tsunade calms down the interrogation continues with Sparrow talking about his past, his unique bloodline limit, and his specialties as a ninja (Mimicry of all things, another copy ninja). As the meeting comes to a close, Tsunade asks one last question. "So, you never told me, why are you here?" Sparrow begins to answer reluctantly. "I am... looking for my mother." After the ninja are dismissed, Sparrow is sent to be 'properly interrogated'.

Late that night, Naruto tries to go to sleep, but instead ends up in all to familiar surroundings. "Hey Kyuubi, what's going on?" "Naruto, I believe I may know who that child is." What? He's not much older than me, did you know his parents or something?" You could say that." Come on, stop talking in riddles." "I'm not entirely sure if it's him. I need more information. Perhaps the Hyuga girl could help." "Hinata? Why her? If you need the Byakugan wouldn't Neji be just as good?" "No, it has to be the girl." "This doesn't make sense. Come on, tell me what you know." " Naruto, please, stop asking questions, this is... a personal matter." "Fine, but after I help, you tell me what you know" "Fine, goodbye Naruto" After he is so rudely kicked out of the Kyuubi's chamber, Naruto drifts off to sleep. His last thoughts not about his conversation with the Kyuubi, but about a certain ex-teammate who he hasn't seen in quite some tim
