I awoke in the morning to a knock on my bedroom door.

"Capri-chan, someone is at the door for you" ten-ten said softly from the other side of the door. I mumbled a reply and rolled out of bed.

"Just…just a minute please" I called out as I stumbled over to the dresser. I looked at the clock. It was 6 in the morning. I let out an exhausted whine. I quickly tossed on some cloths and went to the door. I looked for a peep hole on the door but for some reason there wasn't one, I guess ninja's don't need peep holes. I opened the door and was surprised to see Naruto standing on the porch.

"Oh… hey Naruto, what brings you here?" I asked as I leaned on the door frame.

"Hey Capri-chan" he said with a smile. "Sherr-chan wanted me to come get you"

"Umm….okay?" I stood there and waited for an explanation but it didn't seem like he was going to give me one. "I'll…go get ready real quick." I replied back. I left Naruto at the door and went back to my room to get my backpack and camera and whatever else I thought I would need. I quickly told ten-ten that I was going out with Naruto for a little while so not to worry and then I headed back to the door. Naruto waited for me at the door and then we both set out for the tree house. As we approached the tree house we could hear fighting coming from ahead.

"Aw come on, not again" Naruto moaned. As we entered the clearing we could see two people fighting. The one with red hair and yellow tips was fighting the familiar dog boy. They seemed to be yelling at each other over something.

"DUDE AKAMARU'S TOTALLY A CHICK!"

"NO HE ISN'T!"

"YES SHE IS!"

"NO HE ISN'T"

"YES SHE IS!"

"DUDE! U CAN SEE HIS **** RIGHT THERE!"

"...THOSE ARE LADY PARTS!"

The red head sent a punch in the dog boy's direction. Dog boy dodged with ease and punched with one hand the red heads chest. The red head skidded back at the impact and let out a cough. He muttered the word "jerk" and ran at the dog boy. The dog boy was preparing for a punch but instead the red head tackled him head on. They rolled around for a minute until the red head was catapulted into the air by the dog boy. He landed with a thud a couple feet away. He stood up slowly and dusted himself off. The dog boy smiled.

"My turn"

With that he ran at the red head and dodged left and started encircling the red head. The red head looked around, confused, as the dog boy's image blurred around him. Then the red head smiled. In an instant the dog boy fell and skidded across the ground. He shot up with anger and pointed at the red head.

"YOU!...YOU TRIPPED ME!" he said in shock and disbelief.

The red head grinned devilishly as he bobbed back and forth with his fists at his chest.

"Maybe you should watch your feet then u won't fall flat on your face" he said with a grin.

"WHAT A DIRTY MOVE!" kiba yelled as he got back up and went to attack the red head. The red head moved to counter strike.

"PIPPIN! KIBA! KNOCK IT OFF!" I yelled. They both froze as a stared them down until I could see the fear in their eyes.

" a-are you ok Capri?" pippin asked wearily. I let out a sigh and put my fingers on my temples.

"Yeah, I just don't feel good" I replied back. "It's too early for this" I whispered. "Where are Sherriah and Sara?" I asked. He pointed up to the tree house. I left the guys in silence as I started up the ladder towards the door. I couldn't help but be pissed though; I just hope they knew it wasn't ENTIRELY their fault. I mean, when you wake up at 6 am after waking up at 12 pm for a week straight you can get a little grumpy. I reached the top of the ladder and pushed the door open and crawled my way into the little room. Once in the room I immediately rolled onto my back on the floor from my crawling position. I laid my arm over my eyes and closed them. I heard them simultaneously say "hey Capri!" and I replied with a dull "it's too early for this". Before I could ask why in the world ANYONE would wake up this early Naruto came up from the door. I looked over and groaned as I rolled onto my feet and stood up. I brushed myself off and quietly went over to the couch in the corner and laid on it. I would get my 10 hours of sleep one way or another.

"So everyone is here?" Naruto asked. A couple of people said "yeah" and I turned my head ever so slightly to watch the room and not leave my comfortable position.

"Actually, pippin and kiba are still downstairs" I replied, my face half buried in couch cushion. But before I could even finish the sentence kiba hopped in through the window with pippin thrashing under his arm.

"There is a door you know" Sara said.

Kiba dropped pippin on the ground as he looked over at Naruto.

"Well we WOULD have used the door if someone wasn't standing on it." Kiba replied. Naruto looked down. He bashfully moved off of the door and said "sorry". And with that, court was in session. Sasuke was first to speak.

"I talked to lady Hokage earlier this morning"

"You talked to her earlier than six?" I asked in disbelief.

"What is wrong with you?" Sara said with a yawn.

"Just be happy he didn't wake you up with all his banging and opening cabinets" Sherriah said with a glare.

" I thought ninja's were supposed to be quiet" Christian chimed in.

"I bet he did it on purpose" Sara said back.

"Seconded" I joined in, raising my hand slightly. The rest of the room thirded, and fourthed, and so on until sasuke shouted for everyone to shut up. The room was deadsilent. Sara let out one of those oh-so-fake coughs and in between she muttered "sadist".

"Enough!" sasuke yelled. We all kinda giggled. He glared us down and we shut up. Naruto mumbled "what is a sadist?" and sasuke shot a glare his way. When the room was completely silent he began to speak again.

"She wants you all to start going on missions" he said as he looked at all of us. I turned my face away from the conversation and towards the back of the couch.

"Why?" I asked.

"What? Do you thing food and board is cheap? Sherriah is the only one here with a job" he said. Everyone was silent. It was in this moment that all of us had the same thought run through our head "I need a job."

" so…to help pay for food and housing lady Hokage wants you all to earn your keep and go on missions." Sasuke said. I let out a sigh and looked back at the dark ninja.

"Don't worry guys! Missions are a lot of fun sometimes!" Naruto interjected. "Like…. You can be a body guard, or you have to help out a village in trouble, and you can fight bad guys or thieves, and a lot of other stuff!" he said with a smile.

I saw pippin fist pump from the corner of my eye. It seemed like he would enjoy this, especially the fighting part. I had to admit it sounded like a lot of fun. I was semi looking forward to this.

"Actually…." Sasuke said.

"Since you guys are new to this you're only doing D rank missions." He said as he pulled a paper out of his pocket. "And I have your mission right here"

Kiba swiped it out of Sasuke's hand and looked over it. A wide grin crossed his face. He laughed and tossed the paper to Sherriah.

"Good luck with that" he said with a grin.

Sherriah looked at the paper and read it out loud.

"Rank: D

Team: Sherriah ****, Sara *****, Capri ****, Christian ****, Bradley **** (aka pippin/robin)

Type: Search

Client: Madame Shijimi (Wife of the Feudal Lord)

Mission Objective: Retrieve Madame Shijimi's cat, Tora, who appears to have disappeared. Return the cat to Madame Shijimi for your pay. The cat is brown and has a small bell on its collar and a red bow attached to its ear."

Kiba laughed again. "That cat is the devil, I hope you guys survive."

I lifted myself into a sitting position and looked at my friends. They looked just as confused as I did.

"Wait a minute….is this the same cat?...no, it couldn't be…"

We all looked at each other, thinking the same thing. I looked over at Naruto and Sasuke. Naruto looked down and shook his head and Sasuke looked off into the distance with an irritated look on his face.

Sherriah folded the paper and put it in her pocket.

"Um…okay? When do we start this thing?" she asked sasuke.

He put his hands in his pockets and moved over in between kiba and Naruto. He let out an evil grin then rested both hands on Naruto's and Kiba's shoulders.

"Right now, good luck"

And with that, poof, they were gone in a cloud of smoke.

We were all silent for a moment. I was the first to speak

"What a douche!"
