Sasuke and Naruto reluctantly stopped sparring to allow Obito and Kakashi some room.

They stared at each other both measuring up the others strengths and weaknesses each knew the other had.

Rin sighed at same old routine as Kakashi Sensei looked on from the corner of his eye boredly.

Minato just rolled his eyes and Sakura began her constant swooning over the newly returned Sasuke not before boxing Naruto on the head for his comment about Sasuke being a moody freak.

Obito cracked his knuckles in expectation as he was looking forward to this he plastered a huge grin on his face and called out, "You ready for this Katsu?"

Kakashi shrugged with indifference, like this wasn't even worth the effort, he was in fact though using this as a chance to vent his anger and frustration, "Any time Osamu."

Silence dawned over the area.

Kakashi Sensei however noticed that a messenger hawk was circling in the sky, "Looks like my missions for the team after all, I suppose it wouldn't hurt to bring the other four along, but the more I see the more they remind me of my team.. anyway I suppose I better break those two up."

Obito and Kakashi moved towards each other ready for a head on clash.

Both of them drew a kunai and threw it with deadly accuracy but neither reached it's target as they cancelled each other out in the middle, the same thing occurred with the throwing stars, so both became frustrated quickly.

Obito's steely gaze met Kakashi's own glare "Looks like it's gonna be 'one on one' with chakra influenced tai jutsu eh? Don't worry I'll go easy on you."

Kakashi readied himself "Do that if you want, but I'm not holding back anything."

Both of them concentrated putting chakra into their arms, fists, legs and feet.

This wasn't just a practice session any more, this was war, they moved in quickly both determined to bring the other down.

Instead though they were intervened by Kakashi sensei's arms stopping they're punches, both boys didn't have enough time to react from their shock as Kakashi Sensei created a clone, then both he and his clone simultaneously prodded both younger Kakashi and Obito in his own special tai-jutsu, "Leaf style 1000 years of death!"


As they made their way to the Hokage tower Obito and Kakashi were muttering to each other.

Their conversation went something like this, "You perverted freak, you just poked me up the ass!" Obito growled rubbing his sore behind.

Younger Kakashi was rubbing his butt as well grumbling, "For the last time I didn't! It was the freaky child snatcher OK!"

Obito's voice lowered into a growl "And for the last time that is your future self! So technically you violated me!"

Kakashi growled and glared, "Oh you think I don't know that! Don't you get how weird it is to be prodded up the ass BY YOURSELF!"

Obito started to chuckle before laughing outright all over again, "Dude that is so messed up!" he managed to say through his hysterical giggling fit.

"Oh I'm messed up? Obito the way your laughing it sounds like you -shudder- enjoyed it!"

Obito stopped laughing immediately, "WHAT WAS THAT BOLT BOY!?"

Kakashi glared "Nothing baka!"

"Those sparks of that new chidori technique your working on finally fried your brain with a lame comeback like that!" Obito sneered.

Kakashi acted like he was too cool to care, "I'm keeping my voice low so I don't draw attention to myself, unlike you dobe."

Obito clenched his fist -anger sign- "Oh... your such a..."

Naruto watched the four of them carefully noting how they reacted around one another, he saw Osamu and Katsu whispering to each other quite frequently getting extremely mad at each other before abruptly cooling off.

Rukia was still holding a conversation with Sakura but you could just see the huge sweat drop every time Sakura said something along the lines of "Isn't Sasuke-kun the coolest and I'll never let that Ino pig lay a finger on Sasuke! By the way.. You don't like Sasuke do you?"

Rin smiled sweetly, "Um no... for the fiftieth time, I like somebody else OK?"

Which got Rukia barraged by a million other questions like "Who is he? What's he look like? Are you saying Sasuke isn't worth it!"

Naruto noted that Rukia was a patient girl, but he wished Sakura would look at him with the same admiration as Sasuke, speaking of which Sasuke was walking ahead with Kakashi sensei, nothing unusual there...

"What's wrong?"

Naruto nearly leaped out of his skin when Minato asked him that, "NOTHING!"

Minato grinned amused "So you weren't scoping out my team mates because we looked suspicious or anything?"

Naruto grinned sheepishly "Heh heh well..."

Luckily his hide was saved as they came to the Hokage's tower to receive their mission.

Sarutobi took a drag from his pipe and exhaled, "Lets see, team 7. Kakashi who are those ninja behind you they were the leaf symbol, yet I don't recall meeting them."

Minato tried to stay out of sight, "Oh no." he thought, "If Sarutobi seems me I'm screwed! He's actually one of the people that could recognize me!"

Kakashi Sensei looked bored "Oh them they're called Mizuki, Rukia, Osamu and Katsu. They say they're new in town and requested to see the village with us, and since we're only doing a D-ranked mission I figured they couldn't harm to tag along."

Sarutobi looked hard at Rin, Obito, Kakashi and the shadow of Minato who couldn't really hide himself well without making it abundantly clear that he was TRYING to hide.

Sarutobi's face looked grave, "I see Kakashi. You four, I would like to know your last names if that is acceptable."

Obito grinned like a Cheshire cat, "No problem my full name is Osamu Ichimura, my friends are Katsu Maaka, Rukia Awayuki and Mizuki Moto."

They nodded their heads to show acknowledgement of their 'names'.

Sarutobi smiled "Very good, enjoy your time in the leaf village, the D-ranked mission I am assigning you is a babysitting mission, watching my grandson for the afternoon. Understood?"

They nodded in acknowledgement.

So the Third answered "Good."

They were leaving much to Minato's relief, happy that they would be free from teh Third's watchful eye in in just a few moments, fate however had other ideas

"Just a moment." Sarutobi's voice sounded stern, unlike the friendly façade he had a few seconds ago, "Mizuki could you look at me while I ask you a question?"

Minato's throat closed, "Well the games up, there's no jutsu I can perform discreetly of quickly enough"

Rin watched with sudden interest sensing the approaching doom of their little acting charade she made a few hand quick signs behind her back.

The hand signs were for a low level usually reliable undetectable gen jutsu, which would make the Hokage appear to see Minato as a black-haired boy with green eyes and freckles across his face.

Minato couldn't detect the gen jutsu either in his panic, so stomach full of dread he turned around to face the Hokage, a cool sweat broke over him as the Third seemed to stare straight through him, "Mizuki are you related at all the the Nara family?"

Minato stuttered for a bit before finding his tongue "N-n-no, well yeah, but DISTANTLY.."

Minato couldn't get over it, "Has the old man finally lost his memory? Eyesight? Sanity?"

"Oh never mind then! Well off you go!" Sarutobi beamed another smile.

The gang shuffled out of the room as Genma who had been leaning against a wall in the shadows said, "Did you feel that lord Hokage?"

Sarutobi drew another puff on his pipe, "I did, that Rukia girl cast some sort of gen jutsu, the question is who are they really and what do they want?"

Genma looked solemnly at the Hokage "Would you like me to dispatch some members of the ANBU black ops?"

Sarutobi turned to gaze out the window, taking time to watch the peacefulness of his little village, it always brought to him some sort of comfort and calming effect. He considered the proposition for a moment before answering, "No for now, I believe that we should wait to see their motives before taking action, as well as that if they try anything suspicious Kakashi is there."

Genma nodded then departed to finish some much dreaded paperwork.

Sarutobi rubbed the bridge of his nose with his thumb and fore-finger, "I hope I've made the right decision"

Naruto yelled enthusiastically "All right a mission! This may be a lame mission watching Konahamaru but if it'll help me achieve my dream of being Hokage, then I 'm ready believe it!"

Sasuke walked past Naruto who pumped his fist in the air, "Like a dobe could be Hokage anyway."

Naruto growled "Sasuke you jerk!"

Sakura stopped talking to Rin as soon as Naruto began antagonizing her Sasuke, Inner Sakura yelled *OOo that little brat he's gonna get what's coming to him!

She marched up to him and punched his jaw sending him flying, "Don't ever say that to Sasuke again you idiot!"

Using this opportunity Rin filled her sensei about the gen jutsu as Minato exhaled in relief, "Thank goodness the old man's not going crazy after all"

-sweat drop-

Sakura was staring at Rin and Minato with big hearts in her eyes, at that moment Rin had whispered in his ears the details, "AW Rukia! Is THIS the guy you like! How cute!"

Inner Sakura was screaming *Why can't Sasuke and I be like that Cha!

The pair looked shocked beyond belief, Minato was Rin's teacher plus he was like 15 years older, it would be wrong on SO many levels.

In other words a lie was needed FAST!

"Um well you see Sakura it's not like that because we're... brother and sister!"

Minato started to think through the lie he just created, "Damn our last names are different, I need to counter the question if it comes up!"

Sasuke glanced back, "But you're last names are different... your Moto she's Awayuki."

He nodded like he'd heard it all before "Well our parent's split up both our parents wanted one the child they looked after to have their name, so I took dad's name and she took mom's name OK?"

Sasuke shrugged a whatever, Sakura looked disappointed then followed Sasuke, Naruto bounced ahead in front of them, Minato walked keeping his thoughts to himself "I don't know how much longer we can remain here, I mean I couldn't take use back yet even if I wanted to for my lack of chakra, even so it won't be long until we're discovered at this rate, and too top it off I was accused of dating my student a moment ago. I hope things run a bit more smoothly."

Kakashi sensei was reading his book just behind them.

Meanwhile bringing up the rear Obito and Kakashi edged his voice with killing intent.

Obito walked casually with his arms behind his head and replied innocently "What? You think I gave you that last name on purpose? Oh Kakashi my heart bleeds with sadness how could you think such thoughts about me your best buddy!"

OK, so Obito laid it on a little thick, but hey he was only teasing "You're not my buddy, I could kill you so easily, but I prefer black mail, like what would happen if a certain little love letter found it's way into Rin's pocket?"

Obito's stopped breathing from his own personal panic attack "And say this charming little letter was from none other than Obito Uchiha, oh I'm sorry my mistake Osamu Ichimaru."

The air around them tensed, Obito's mouth was dry as if someone hadn't gave him water for days, his mouth was open gaping like a fish gasping desperately for oxygen "You wouldn't dare!"

Kakashi had a envelope in his hand in a flash it had little red hearts all over it, Kakashi replied in a childish tone "You dared me!"
