Utau started to walk towards the gate of the village. She never went outside the village. She never wanted to. Her sister wanted freedom but she never understood what she meant by it. She would always be limited to what she wants to do. Utau shook my head when she saw the gate dead ahead. She saw everyone there.

"Now that everyone is here we can go." Kakashi said.

We all started to walk towards the gate when I got a bad feeling in my stomach. I stopped and stared out the gate. 'I know when something is going to go wrong… I better keep an eye out for anything that looks weird.'

"Finally!" Naruto shouted.

"What are you getting so excited about Naruto?" Sakura asks.

"This is the first time I ever left the village! I'm a traveler now. Believe it!" Naruto said.

"Hey I'm I supposed to trust my life to this runt? This is a joke!"

"His with me and I'm a Jounin. So you have nothing to worry about." Kakashi said.

"Hey never insult a ninja! It's a great mistake! And I'm going to the greatest ninja ever! Someday I'm going to be Hokage and you'll have to look up to me! My name is Naruto Uzumaki! Remember it!"

"Hokage are powerful and rise. You're puny and brainless. The day you become Hokage is the day I'll sprout wings and fly."

Utau started to giggle, and put her hand up against her mouth the stifle it. It didn't work out so much. 'That was hilarious. I have to remember that one. Although it seemed to piss of Naruto even more than before.'

"Hey! Shut up! I'm willing to do anything to become Hokage no matter what it takes! And when I do everyone will have to admit that I'm the top ninja! Including you!"

'Didn't he already say this? Man can he not come up with anything better? Honestly…'

"You could become Hokage 10 times over and to me you'll still be a no body. A loser."

Utau had to stifle another laugh. 'I love this guy!'

"I'm going to make you pay for that-"

"Naruto you're supposed to protect the client not attack him.' Kakashi lectured him yet again. And while he was doing this Naruto was still trying to attack him and was screaming.

She sighed. 'This is going to be a long mission…'

"Hey Tazuna?" Sakura asked.

'What does she want now?'

"What is it?"

"Your country is the land of waves, right?"

"Yeah what of it?"

"Kakashi-sensei, there are ninja it that country too, right?"

"No there are no ninja in the land of waves. But in other countries there are hidden villages each with their own customs and cultures where ninja reside. To the people of this continent the existence of Shinobi of each village means strength, military strength. In other words that's how they protect themselves and maintain balance of power with neighboring countries. The ninja villages are not controlled by any government their independent and have equal status. Now a small island like the land of waves has natural protection from the sea so there's no need for a ninja village. The Five ancient lands that protect Shinobi villages are the land of fire, water, lighting, wind and earth. They each occupy vast territories. Together they make up the five great Shinobi nations. The land of fire is the village hidden in the leaves. Water is the village hidden in the mist. Lighting is the village hidden in the clouds. Wind the village hidden in the sand, and earth the village hidden in the stone. Only the leaders in these hidden villages are permitted the name Hokage which means shadow. Hokage, Kazekage, Mizukage, Raikage, and Tsuchikage. These are the leaders of the five shadows that lead over thousands of ninja."

"Then Lord Hokage is really important!" Sakura yelled.

'Finally he stopped talking. Like honestly I learned this stuff years ago. And if there are so many freaking ninja why is there so many missing ninja? Like honestly. I think all the Hokage is just for show…'

"Hey! You all just doubted Lord Hokage, didn't you?! That's what you were thinking!"

Naruto and Sakura shook their heads. 'I did too but its not like im going to admit it. Idiots.'

"Anyway there are no ninja battles in C rank missions so you can relax."

Utau saw Takashi look anxious. 'His hiding something and I have feeling I'm not going to like what it is.'

"So were no going to run into any foreign enemy ninja or anything like that?" Sakura asked.

'If you're afraid of ninja why the hell did you become one. I swear I'm surrounded by idiots.'

Kakashi laughed. "Not likely."

We walked for a few more hours, and that's when a spotted a puddle. I stopped and looked at Kakashi.

"Keep walking." He said quietly.

I nodded and kept walking but kept my ears open to when they will attack.

"Huh what?!" And with that Kakashi was in pieces or what he wanted for us to think. They two quickly went behind Naruto.

"Now it's your turn."

Naruto froze and just when I was about to leap to help him Saskue beat me to it. He took out shirakin and made their chains stick to the tree trunk. And then with a kunai he made the chains break in half. He stood on top of them, and kicked them, making them break away from the chains. One went after Naruto while the other one headed for Sakura and Tazuna. Sakura stood in front of Tazuna and I quickly went in front of her with my sword stuck out in front of me.

'I'm not going to let them get all the attention.'

But turned out I didn't have to do anything anyway Kakashi got to the one in a headlock.

"Hi."

"But he was-" Naruto looked toward his "pieces" and saw that it was log pieces.

"Naruto sorry I didn't help you right away. I didn't mean for you to get hurt I just didn't think you would freeze up like that. Good job Sasuke very smooth. You too Utau you did a good job protecting Sakura and Tazuna. You too Sakura."

Utau smirked. 'Naruto doesn't look too happy. But I wouldn't either if I was him. He basically didn't do anything. In fact he put his and Sasuke life is danger. What and idiot. If he only freezes he shouldn't have become a ninja.'

"Hey. You're okay right? Scardey cat." Sasuke said,

She smirked. 'The first thing you say on this mission. Good job Sasuke. Way to get people to like you. Although with the amount of fan girls you have I guess you don't have to try really hard. And yet again Naruto doesn't look too happy. Cant blame him but really he was a scardey cat.'

"SASUKE!"

"Naruto! Stand still! Those ninja have poison in their claws. We need to get it out of you quickly. You have to open the wound to get it out. Don't move it will only spread the poison. By the way Mr. Tazuna."

"Yeah what?"

"We need to talk. Their Chunin from the village hidden in the mist. Their specialty is relentless attacks they keep fighting no matter what the sacrifice."

"How did you know about our ambush?"

"Utau how about you answer this one?" Kakashi asked.

"A puddle on a clear day when it hasn't rained in weeks? Really you guys couldn't do any better?" Utau asked sarcastically.

"In that case why did you leave the Genin to fight?" Tazuna asked.

"I could have taken them out quickly. But I wouldn't have learned anything. I had to know who their target was and what they were after."

"What are you getting at?" Tazuna asked.

"This. I wanted to know if they were attacking us ninja vs. ninja or if they were after you, the master bridge builder. When you put in your request you wanted protection from robbers and highway men. You didn't say there were ninja looking for you, hunting you down. If we knew this it would be a B rank mission or higher. Our task was simply to get you to your destination and protect you while you finished your bridge. If we knew to be fielding enemy ninja we could have staffed differently and charged you for a B ranked mission. Apparently you had your reasons but lying to us in unacceptable. We are now beyond the scope of this mission."

"We're Genin. This is to advance for our level of training. We should go back to the village. I also think we should go and get the poison out of Naruto as soon as possible. Back in our village we can take him to a doctor."

'The training you had maybe. But not for Sasuke or me probably. Instead of fawning over Sasuke you should have trained.'

"Naruto's hand could become a problem. I guess we should go back to the village."

In that instant Naruto took out a kunai and stabbed his wound. My eyes widened. 'Is he crazy?! Like that's going to help anything!'

"Why am I so different. Why am I always…"

"Naruto! Stop that! What are you doing?!" Sakura yelled at him.

"I worked so hard to get here. Pushing myself until it hurt. Training alone for hours anything to get stronger and to reach my dream. I will never back down again and let someone rescue me. I will never run away and I will not lose to Sasuke or Utau. Upon this wound I make this pledge. Believe it. Bridge builder I'll complete this mission and protect you with this kunai knife. Don't worry I'm fine."

'His like me more than I realized. But why the hell did he include me in that speech of his, honestly. And to top it all off he decided were gonna finish the mission without even asking us or Kakashi-sensei... I swear this kid will be the death of me.'

"Naruto that was really cool how you took the poison out and all but if you lose any more blood you're going to die."

3…2….1….

"Good idea to stop the bleeding now. Seriously."

"I'm too young for it to end like this! No! No!"

Kakashi stared at his wound which seemed like hours but probably was only a few short seconds.

"Um.. Um… You have a very serious look on your face. It's kind of scaring me. Am I okay?"

"Um yeah you should be fine." Kakashi answered.

'I have a feeling more danger is right around the corner.'

Okay so I'm back. So I know I haven't uploaded for like ever but honestly…. I got nothing. But I now have motivation so I'm going to continue this. And for anyone reading my other story I will upload that as well. So I hope you guys continue reviewing, and giving me feedback. So today in Econ my teacher was like going over the three economic questions, and by doing that he gave us an example: he was driving down his street to get home and there was a crap load of trucks and stuff and he was wondering what was going on until he saw like three chicks holding up a sign saying lemonade only they were wearing bikinis and we started to laugh. And a kid asked you didn't go and he was like I have internet for that and I swear it was the funniest thing I ever heard in my life. After we stopped laughing (which was like 3 minutes no joke) we gave him a round of applause. I had a very good day in school today and I am very happy about that. To top it all off I get out early this year (also happy about) because honestly people and school annoy me too much. I hope you guys have a wonderful night and I WILL update soon.

Tata for now
