[1] IMPORTANT NOTICE - I changed Karasu's Obaa-san to Rousai in Ch. 1 so it
doesn't get confused with Naruto calling Tsunada, Obaa-san.

Chapter 2: Early Arrivals, Bells, and Secret Meetings
"Ketsueki Karasu, you are under arrest." The fifth Hokage said.
"What?! Obaa-san! [1]" Naruto said. He was confused. Weren't things suppose to go back to normal?
"Eh, Naruto-chan, don't worry. Things aren't always as they seem. I'll just go see what they want. Ne?" Karasu spoke in a calm voice as he approached the fifth. Besides, I am too far.
"Right!" Naruto said giving a smile, masking his worry. He watched as Karasu and Hokage disappear around a bend in the path. The Jounins and Anbu seemed to have vanished.
"A genjutsu." Sasuke said. "None of them were real. Your 'guardian' is probably walking into a trap."
"We should..." Naruto never did finish his sentence when a familiar voice greeted them.
Hatake Kakashi had arrived and greeted with a, "Yo." He was still reading his favorite perverted book.
"Hey, you are two hours...early!" Sakura and Naruto yelled.
"Today's mission is to find these bells...as a team. There are thirty bells. Ten are marked 1, ten are marked 2, and the last ten are marked 3. Sakura can only pick up and carry the bells marked 1. Sasuke can only pick up and carry the bells marked 2. And Naruto can only pick up and carry the bells marked 3. They are everywhere in Konoha."
"Easy." Naruto said with a grin.
"Another thing, you aren't going home until all the bells are collected and returned here. And be ready for anything. Go." Kakashi said. He got into a relaxing position and continued his reading.
As Team 7 genins started to leave, Naruto gave one more glance at the bend in the path before going off to the mission.
======------=====----=====-----====-----==-------==----====-----
Karasu continued to follow the Fifth into a more isolated part of the training area. Then she suddenly disappeared into a puff of smoke. Every thing was quiet, too quiet.
"Ne, Itachi-kun, you call that a subtle message? You might as well have wrote invitations to every ninja in the village. Any idiot, not to insult Naruto-chan, could figure out that was a Kage Bunshin and a genjutsu." Karasu said leaning against a tree.
"Bring the demon to me." Uchiha Itachi said from the shadows.
"Eh, Itachi-kun. Gomen. I out rank you and Orochimaru combined together. I give orders and not take them. And the child is under my care and protection. You want him, come and get him, but you first have to go through me."
"Akatsuki don't like traitors." An another figure said in the shadows.
"Kisame, that is being a hypocrite. Everyone part of the Akatsuki Organization is a traitor to one village or another."
"What village did you come from? Maybe you are a spy?" Kisame said coming out of the shadows and pointing his sword at the strange boy.
Karasu smirked and stayed where we was.
"Kisame, put the sword away. He'll answer those questions upon his death." Itachi said also coming out of the shadows.
"We'll see." The boy approached Itachi until their faces where inches apart. Karasu's nose reached Itachi's chin. "Though there are so much better ways to get such information. Ne?" Karasu grazed his lips against Itachi's before vanishing.
===----===----===----====----====----==----===----=-----======------=======- ----
"Where are those stupid bells?" Naruto asked in frustration. They have been combing the forest and the streets for the bells have not seen one. I was already one in the afternoon. "And where the hell is Karasu- chan!"
You called? The familiar voice spoke in Naruto's head.
"Did you hear that? The voice in the head?" Sakura asked. Sasuke nodded.
I use a little bit chakra to speak in your heads. This way, I can talk to you all without myself being seen. Continue walking and use your thoughts to talk to me and each other. Karasu said.
'Interesting technique.' Sasuke thought spoke.
:Karasu-chan, have you seen any bells around marked with either a 1, 2, or 3?: Naruto asked.
/NARUTO! This is a training mission./ Sakura asked.
Explain this training mission. Team 7 explained their mission about finding the bells. They even quoted Kakashi-sensei a few times. Interesting choice for training mission. Though it seems it would be good practice for teamwork.
/Our worst skill./ Sakura sighed.
Then lets make it your best. Come to Naruto's apartment. Thought, first go get your friend, Rock Lee. He looks rather lonely and sad sitting on the bench by himself.
===-----====-----====------=====-------=====-----=====----====----===----- ===-----====-----
It was dark and no one has seen Team 7 since one in the afternoon. Though they have been through sometime afterward. All the bells were gone.
"Everyone was distracted when their bells were taken. Correct?" Kakashi-sensei asked the Rookie genin, their senseis, and Jiraiya. Everyone nodded. They were at the bridge where Team 7 usually meet.
"Don't forget they pulled pranks on us, also." Ino said having her headband cover her newly multi-color hair.
"I heard your team is missing, Kakashi." Tsunada said appearing on the bridge with a team of Anbu.
"Just a training mission, Hokage-sama." Kakashi said.
"You are suppose to keep an eye on them, especially Sasuke. People will start to panic, again, if you don't find him and the others very quickly." The fifth Hokage said.
