A new story, I should really finish one before I start a new one, but alas this one just wouldn't let me concentrate on "Before The CopyNin"

Alright this has three-year-old Kakashi and three-year-old Gai (I really like their rivalry) it's about how they meet and became rivals. So read please

Disclaimer: I don't own naruto, if I did do you honostly think I'd be writing fanfiction? Didn't think so.

It was a sunny morning in Konoha, all was calm, and all was quiet, except one house. "WHY?!?!" A three-year-old silver haired boy yelled at his mother.

The women turned to her son. "Because, Kakashi, I'm going to be gone until late tonight, your father's out of town until tomarrow afternoon, and the Maito's have kindly offered to watch you for the day." She patted little Kakashi on the head.

"But why can't I stay hewe by myself, I'll be in the academy next yeaw I'm pwactically an adult!" Kakashi whined.

"The Maito's have a little boy about your age, his name is Gai. Don't you want to go play with someone your own age, honey?" The women asked, not at all frustrated by the boy's lack of enthusiasm.

"NO!" Kakashi stamped his foot on the ground to emphasis his point.

His mother giggled at his cute actions and ruffled his hair. "Well I'm sorry you feel that way because you're going whether you like it or not. Now put your shoes on or you'll be going barefoot and that, you really won't like."

Grumbling, Kakashi obyed his mother because honostly what three-year-old disobeys his mother when she uses that tone of voice.

The walk to the Maito residence was short given that they lived right across the street. Kakashi's mother knocked on the door and moments later it opened revealing a woman with long dark hair and disturbingly thick eyebrows. "Hello Keiko, how are you? Oh and this must be little kakashi, you look just like your father." She reached down and pinched his cute, little, three-year-old, cheeks. "I can't believe we haven't set you and my little Gai-chan up on a playdate yet. He's in his bedroom, why don't you go on in and meet him, hmm?"

Taking the offered chance to get away from the creepy, cheek pinching, woman, Kakashi turned to send one last glare at his mother, which both women giggled at the cuteness of, and stepped into the house.

It wasn't bad as far as houses go. Not too messy, not too jammed full of stuff, really not that bad. But still it was the principal of the thing, so little Kakashi would hate the house with all his little three-year-old being. Unfortunatly while his little three-year-old being was busy hating the house it failed to notice the shadow sneaking up on him.

"INTWUDER!!!!" The shadow yelled and proceded pounce on poor unsuspecting little Kakashi. Though like poor unsuspecting little Kakashi said to his mother earlyer, he was going to be in the academy next year, he was practically an adult, so he had to know atleast a few tricks.

Kakashi sidestepped and watched as the shadow, who was now revealed to be a boy in green footie pajamas, barreled past him and crashed, head first into the wall, putting a sizable dent in it. Poor wall.

"You twipped me, didn't you?!?!" The green boy was now standing pointing an accusing finger at Kakashi.

The boy had a black bowl cut, and the same disturbingly thick eyebrows as Mrs. Maito. This must be that Gai kid. Kakashi thought.

Before he had a chance to say anything, Mrs. Maito and his mother came rushing in. "Whats going on in here?" Mrs. Maito asked.

"He's an intwuder mommy! And he twipped me!" Little Gai said pointing at Kakashi, who was now standing behind his mother's legs, sticking a tongue out at Gai.

"I did not, and I'm not an intwuder!" Kakashi pouted, sticking his lip out and digging his toe into the floor to add extra cuteness. Oh yes he knew he was cute and he knew how to exploit it.

"Aw, it's alright Kakashi, Gai's just a little protective." Mrs. Maito said patting the little silver haired boy on the head. "Now Gai honey, Kakashi is our guest today, you two are going to have so much fun, I can feel it."

"Alright Kakashi, I'm leaving now sweetie. You be good. " His mother said bending over and giving him a quick kiss on his forehead.

So shocked was little Kakashi, that his mother was leaving him with these freaks he could only utter a little meep before she was out the door and gone forever, really only until late tonight but that's like forever for a three-year-old.

Kakashi turned towards Gai and his mother, Gai was glaring at him. Brave little Kakashi bit his bottem lip and did what any three-year-old would do if they were left with strange people, not knowing if they'd ever see their parents again, he cried his poor little heart out.

A/N

All the chapters in this story will be about this short cuz this is just a side story to get my creative juices flowing.

When Kakashi and Gai think they won't pronounce their "R"'s as "W"'s because I don't know if you know this but when someone talks funny it sounds perfectly normal to them (atleast it did for me) same as when they're thinking to themself.

Also this is nowhere near the same universe as my other story "Before The CopyNin" in this Kakashi is an only child, not so much a genius but still smart for his age, and well I can't think of anything else, but yeah, not in the same universe!

Anyway, review please, they make me all warm and fuzzy inside!!!
