Chapter 5
Yoshiro's POV
"Nami…shut up!"
"Why are you always so cranky in the mornings?"
"Maybe because you always wake me up with your hyper jabber…ever think of that?"
"Nami…Yosh please stop fighting…we're a team aren't we?"
"Yes…I suppose it has been almost a year...damn…"
"What?"
"We don't have very good teamwork for a team of a year."
"What do you mean?"
"Think about it Nami…we are always fighting…We never get through one training session without bumping into each other…we're hopeless."
"Not hopeless…just in need of guidance." I turn around quickly and see a raven haired man standing behind me.
"Sensei?"
"I came to tell you all something."
"Do we have a mission?"
"Not exactly Nanami…"
"We have to go talk to my Dad?"
"No Ayame."
"Jeez…shut up and let him talk."
"Thank you Yoshiro…Let me just begin by saying that it has been an honor serving as your captain over this past year…"
"Now it's my turn to interrupt…has?"
"Yes has…I am…"
"You're leaving aren't you?"
"Yes."
"WHAT!?!?"
"Nanami stop yelling!"
"But Sensei…"
"No but's…I am leaving . That is my decision."
"Hey Sensei?"
"Yes?"
"Can you tell us why?"
"Not exactly but I can tell you that it is for your own good and that you will be taken care of."
"Ha…I knew it…"
"You knew what?"
"That something bad would happen today."
"Well you were right. After this I will once again be considered a missing nin so…I can't say that I will see you later…"
"Just go."
"Yosh what are you saying?"
"Just let him leave. He can do what he wants."
"Well then I'll just leave. You three should get a new sensei soon. Goodbye." With a puff of smoke he was gone.
"How could you just let him leave like that Yosh? I can't believe you would do something like…"
"Shut up! We aren't going to let him leave and condemn himself as a missing nin. He is our Sensei and if we can get one thing right…it needs to be this."
"So what are we going to do?"
"Well…we are going to follow him."
Two hours later
"So I see that Kabuto delivered my message successfully."
"What the hell do you want with me now?"
"I want you to return Sasuke…"
"I thought I told you I was never coming back."
"But you still haven't completed your goal."
"I can do that without your help."
"Oh really?"
"Yes…I don't need borrowed strength to complete it. I only need my own…I was hoping the next time that I saw you we wouldn't have to fight but…" He widens his stance and put his arm between them as it began to glow blue and a chirping noise was heard. "since you threatened Sakura…I'm afraid I have to."
"I see…so we fight once again Sasuke…"
"Yes I believe we will."
"But there is one thing I don't understand."
"And what is that?"
"Why you brought your brats with you." I see a kunai whizzing towards our position and motion for the other two to jump out. We land behind Sensei and he looks at us out of the corner of his eye.
"What are you three doing here?"
"We aren't going to let you run again Sensei."
"I thought you three had more sense than to follow me."
"You obviously don't know us very well then."
"You three need to get out of here now."
"I apologize Sensei but I am respectfully disobeying that order. As are they."
"Why is that?"
"We won't let you do this to yourself…"
"I can take care of myself. As your Sensei…you need to listen to what I tell you."
"We are. Wasn't it you who said 'Those who don't follow the rules are scum. But those who don't take care of their comrades are worse than scum'?"
"Well yes but…"
"You're our Sensei but first and foremost, you are our comrade and friend. I don't know about these two but I would rather be scum than worse than scum."
"How is he still alive?" Nami breaks into our conversation. "Even Tsunade is gone now…so how is…he still here?"
