Naruto opened her eyes and saw the ceiling of her room. She sighed. She didn't want to get up but it so happened that she had a team meeting today and so did Shikamaru. Naruto sat up and started to put on her clothes she stopped when she got to the shirt. She took all her clothes off and put something else on. Once she put on all her clothes she looked in the mirror. She had her black tank top, black short shorts with long black knee socks and high top tennis shoes and black fingerless gloves. Naruto started down the stairs and passed Shikamaru on the way. He raised an eyebrow at her outfit. "What's with the outfit Naruto." She shrugged her shoulders and kept walking. She didn't stop for breakfast because she was already late for the meeting so she just walked out the door saying a goodbye.

Naruto looked at her teammates. Sakura glared at her and Sasuke was neutral. "Naruto you were supposed to be here earlier. Uhhh why can't you listen to what Kakshi-sensei says. You're such an idiot." Sakura rambled. Naruto paid attention until she said that she couldn't listen then she stopped. Naruto wasn't specifically interested in what Sakura had to say. She turned towards Sasuke and smiled. He blushed slightly and smiled back. Sasuke ever since Naruto had changed he had a crush on her, but he couldn't tell her because she was with Shikamaru. He hated that she was but he couldn't exactly tell her just to leave Shikamaru and be with him. So he just admired from afar. Naruto moved to sit down and Sasuke followed her. Sakura didn't notice because she was still rambling.

"When is Kakashi-sensei gonna get here. Oh Sasuke I have another cake wanna piece. It's Red Velvet." Sasuke nodded and Naruto handed him a piece and a fork.

"Hey where do you carry all this I didn't see it when you were walking up."

"Ummm... Nowhere. Maybe..." Naruto trailed off confused about Sasuke's question. She just shrugged her shoulders after she couldn't find a good enough answer. Sasuke sighed at Naruto. Just as he was about to say something else Kakashi showed up.

"YOU'RE LATE." Sakura screeched loudly making them all cringe.

"Uh, yea, well, I wanted you guys to know that we will be doing missions today ,so you know." Sasuke and Naruto nodded but Sakura got angry.

"You know what." She yelled. Naruto and Sasuke shook their heads and started to walk away from Sakura. They walked to the mission hall and waited for Sakura. Once she got there they kept on walking.

In the mission hall was Iruka and The Third Hokage. They were waiting for Team 7 to come in today. The door opened and they looked up and saaw Team 7 standing in the door way. "Oh team 7 I see you are here for your missions." They all nodded. "Ok so we haev a few missions. You can walk dogs, weed gardens, catch tora, or-."

"No I want a better mission then these chores Jiji." Naruto said quietly. The Third looked at her and saw the look in her eye.

"Fine bring in Tazuna." The Hokage said. "I will give you a C-rank mission that is it and you will be protecting a bridge buolder on his way back to the wave." Just as he finished talking the door opened. In walked a man that looked drunk, smelled drunk, and that was drunk.

"These little kids are supposed to be my protectors. You must be joking. I swear none of them can protect themselves. Especially that one with the weird hair. She lookes like she should still be in diapers." Naruto frowned. She may have been short for her age but he didn't need to comment about it. After he said that everyone saw Naruto get sad at the comment and pretty much all of them glared at him. The only one who didn't was Sakura who agreed with him.

"Don't disrespect my students Tazuna. All of them. Well almost all of them can protect you. Also I am a jonin so no worries." Kakashi said with an eye smile. Even though he was smiling an evil aura came off him. Kakashi was very protective of Naruto. He thought of her as his own daughter and he would do anything to protect her. Naruto raised her head and saw them gkaring at Tazuna.

"Well we better get ready." Naruto suggested. Her team nodded and started to walk out.

"Meet at the gate in 2 hours ok." Kakashi said. They nodded and went of to pack.

"Hey Toshiro, Ichigo what do you guys think I need for this."

"Well you should pack for atleast a month and take Hiyourinmaru with you."

"Yea take Zangetsu with you as well you will need them for the fight." Ichigo explained.

"Um Ok. I'm confused but Ok."

"And Let us out." They both yelled at her.

Naruto did the handsigns for a shadow clone and an Ice clone and put Ichigo and Toshiro's Souls into them. They shifted into the two. "Man it feels good to walk." Ichigo yelled. Toshiro nodded. Naruto smiled and walked on and the 2 followed.
