"She's a threat and we must ride ourselves of her before anything drastic happens," stated

the man in the hooded cloak, "Your target is Sumari Rishiru in the Hidden Village of the

wave."

5:00 am

Way too early to be doing anything, but Team 7 & 8 are always at their usual training

grounds waiting for their senseis but today was different. Team 7 & 8 were both meeting

at Team 8's training grounds for the teams had a mission together. Hinata was always the

first one to arrive. She waited there paitently twidling her thumbs and recalling the

previous nights conversations.

Flashback

"You are a disgrace to the Hyuuga name. Not only are you weak and kindhearted but you

are also clumsy." Hiashi said coldy to the shy Hyuuga girl. His cold eyes baring down on

her as she sat there listening to all his words of disappointment and disgrace abot how she

would never live up to the Hyuuga name. Trying her hardest not to break down and cry right

in front of her father, showing him her weakness. So she sat there and listened, the words

never leaving her eyes and embedding themselves in her consious.

"Go to your room and try not to break anything else on your way there."

End Mean Flashback

She was suddenly woken from her trance when she noticed that someone was calling her.

"HINATA!! CAN YOU HEAR ME!!" yelled Naruto.

Hinata jumped in shock then she realized what he had asked her.

"G-gomen N-naruto-kun," she stuttered.

"Are you okay?" asked Naruto.

"H-hai," she whispered.

"Good," he said as he propped down beside her. She blushed but Naruto didn't notice.

"So what were you thinking about?" he asked.

"O-oh, um nothing...j-just some family stuff," she whispered as she flashed him a bit of a

forced smile. She then turned her attention back to her feet as if they were the most interesting

things in the world. They both sat in silence for neither one knew what to say. Just as Naruto

was about to start a conversation Sakura and Sasuke came. He went over to them to say hi

leaving Hinata alone once more. Not much time pasted by before Kiba and Shino arrived.

"Ohayo Hinata," Kiba said in his usual cheery voice. Shino just nodded but they knew

that he didn't talk much.

"Ohayo Kiba-kun," she said with a shy smile.

They all waited there for hours when Kakashi finally arrived at 11:00.

"Sorry I was late...you see I got lost while walking on the road of life...," Kakashi started

to explain before Naruto shouted "LIAR!!", pointing an annoyed finger at his sensei.

"Anyway we have a special mission today....we get to visit the Hidden Village of the Mist

and stay there for a week all the while protecting the heir to the noble Sumari clan.

Everyone meet at the west gate at 1:00. Dismissed." He disappered with a little poof.

At 1:00 everyone was waiting at the west gate, everyone except of course Kakashi.

After 45 minutes of impatience Kakashi arrived and before anyone could yell at him for

being late he advissed the guards to open the gate. As they were walking Kakashi

started his explaination of their mission.

"Each of you will be paired off with another person from the other team and assigned

a certain mission. Sasuke and Kiba you're assigned to protect the heir for the whole

week with your lives. Sakura and Shino you will be watching over Rishiru's grandfather,

he is the only person in Rishiru's life. Make sure he's safe. Naruto and Hinata, you will

not be joining us in the Hidden Village of the Mist."

Naruto and Hinata both looked at each other with confused looks on their faces. Then

they turned their attention back to Kakashi to explain what he was talking about.

"You two have a special mission. You must head to the Hidden Village of the Sand

and assasinate Wasaki Itsubishi." Kakashi said with a plain look on his........eye.

Naruto and Hinata's eyes shot open when they heard what he said. Was he joking?

They've had many different and difficult missions in the past but never to kill someone.

They were both at a loss for words, both silent not knowing what to think. They finally

snapped out of they're trance when they noticed that they had stopped walking and

everyone was already a well way ahead. As they caught up with the group Kakashi

started to explain again and told them to head down the next road to the Hidden

Village of the Sand.

Naruto and Hinata didn't talk as they headed down the road. Both were in deep

thought about the mission. Naruto was the first one to speak.

"So...why do you think they chose us to kill this Wasaki Itsubishi guy?" he asked.

"I-I'm not sure.....m-maybe because they thought we were the b-best people for

the job," she quietly whispered, twidling her thumbs with a slight blush tinting her

pale cheeks.

"Yeah you're probablly right. I mean we are good." Naruto said as he laughed

nervously.

Soon night came and they set up camp near a river.

"I'm going to go get us some dinner," said Naruto but before Hinata could say

anything he was gone. Naruto traveled farther down the river and started to take

off his vest, shirt, pants, shoes and forehead protector. All he had left on were

his boxers. Over the years Naruto had changed. His face still looked the same

only now it was more mature and handsome loking. His muscles were of course

well toned for all the training he did.

He dived into the water and fished out two fish. Meanwhile Hinata had started

undressing herself to take a bath in the river thinking that Naruto wouldn't be

back for a while. Once she was completely undressed she walked into the

water, it was cold but she didn't mind. She kept walking till she reached the

miniature waterfall at the side of the river. She started to bathe herself when

Naruto started to walk back to camp.

In a few minutes he was back at camp when he noticed that Hinata wasn't there.

He looked around the camp when he noticed someone was bathing near the

waterfall. It looked like a women. He then noticed that she had blue hair. It

was Hinata! And she was naked! Naruto started panicing because there was

a naked women. What was he supposed to do?

Naruto was so distracted by thinking about what he should do that he didn't

notice the snake headed towards Hinata. She was still bathing she hadn't

noticed.

Five feet.......

Four feet........

Three feet......

Two feet...............

The snake was now at level with Hinata, fangs poised, dripping with poison

ready to attack.
