A/N: Decided to post the next chapter as well…enjoy:

----------------------------------------------------------

The group of 8 was considerably quiet while walking to their destination. It didn't seem like any of them would talk...until Naruto thought the situation was TOO boring for his tastes.

"WHY IS IT SO QUIET!" he yelled, casually putting both hands behind his head like he always did. He pouted like a six year old child, waiting for something to answer.

"I KNOW...I WANT SOME ACTION!" Kira chimed in with Naruto, the triangles cutting themselves along her face awkwardly moving into a different shape as her mouth changed to a frown.

"Kids..." Mitch muttered to himself as he took out a book from his side pocket. In an instant, he flipped the book open to the exact spot he was reading and started to scan through the pages. What was interesting was even though he was reading, he could easily avoid things like rocks, tree stumps and hanging branches without taking his eyes off the pages.

Is that book really that interesting? Kakashi thought as he immediately knew what it was, upon seeing the books cover. His visible eye grew wide as he recognized it immediately. The back cover of the book had a large red circle, a slash going through it, easily noticeable as a "RESTRICTED" rated book. The cover of the book, had the words. "Come come Paradise" written all over the front, and was none other than Kakashi's favorite manga series.

"Oh!" Kakashi exclaimed, as he pointed a finger at the book Mitch was reading. The other jounnin looked confused as he looked to where Kakashi was pointing at: the book. "Oh, you mean this? Yeah, great book if you know what I mean" he gave he said as his grin widened more seeing Kakashi's surprised look.

"Oh great...a Mitch-sensei clone" Selina let out an annoyed sigh upon seeing the two perverted jounnin. "Shut up...like we needed another Kakashi-sensei clone" Sasuke joined in her conversation, standing next to the odd girl with the same exact pose as she did, arms crossed an annoyed look on his face.

"Hmph, why does SHE get to talk to Sasuke-kun!" Inner Sakura silently yelled through the depths of Sakura's mind. "Outer" Sakura's eyes became slits as she stared at the other genin girl, blind fury rushing through her veins. Heather, upon seeing the other girl's reaction, came up to her and giggled. "Jealous?" she inquired as Sakura's face loosened up and turned into a nice light shade of red. "Hehe, so you noticed?" she said shyly as a coy grin appeared on her face. "He is rather cool, isn't he?" Heather said, glancing every now and then at Sasuke and Selina, then back to Sakura.

"Hmm...so you're Naruto eh? What do you do for a living?" Kira asked, inspecting the boy with such curiosity. Naruto gave a grin only seen when he was up to trouble...or something along those lines. "I AM UZUMAKI NARUTO AND I WANT TO BE HOKAGE OF KONOHA VILLAGE!" he yelled at the top of his lungs, thrusting up a fist into the air as a flock of birds took to the sky from his echoing voice. Kira stared at him for a long time, a look as if she would sarcastically say: "Wow...that was pure genius..." She rearranged her face and gave a smile..."Well, then, I AM JIACHI KIRA! AND I WANT TO BE THE GREATEST NINJA EVER! BETER THAN SELINA!"

Upon hearing Naruto and Kira's loud oaths, as well as her name being called, Selina turned around to look at the two shinobi. "Wow...two perverted jounnins, and two idiots in this group...just what we needed...CLONES..." she sighed again. "I know exactly what you mean" Sasuke said, rolling his eyes upon seeing the two "idiots" discuss troublemaking ideas...

"Can we PLEASE get back to our mission Mitch-sensei?" Selina asked her teacher, wondering if it will break lots of conversations and break her thoughts admitting that there were clones of the genin and jounnin here in the group.

"Uh, yes, sorry about that, the mission comes first!" Mitch and Kakashi said together. Naruto and Kira let out a "YEAH!" at the exact same timing, Sakura and Heather both gave a smile and nodded, and Sasuke and Selina both let out the exact same sigh.

I guess there really are clones here... Selina finally admitted to herself...though somehow she truthfully didn't want to admit it.. "Lets just get going...please..." she said aloud.
----------------------------------------------------

"So...what kind of weapons does your village use?" Sakura asked the other shinobi. It was obvious that she was going to ask a question such as this, being the intelligent one of her groups three genin.

"Hmph..." Selina said, crossing her arms as if she didn't want to answer the girl's question. She continued to walk without saying a word to the girl. "You just gotta find out!" Heather answered, giving the pink haired girl a wink and a smile. Though, Kira's answer was different.

"I USE DOUJUTSU!" she yelled at the top of her lungs. Heather giggled and shrugged her shoulders, and Selina just gave a very loud groan. Kira didn't seem to happy with Selina's reaction. "Hey! I'm awesome, and going to be awesome! BETTER THAN YOU! MS. I'M-SO-STRONG!" she yelled as her dull red eyes widened. "Lessee..." she quietly said as she found something. A moving target. "HAHA! Betcha you didn't find this!" Kira exclaimed as she grabbed a kunai and threw it into the bushes.

Hmmm? What was that for? Naruto wondered as he later saw a kunai whiz past his face. "NOT AGAIN!" he yelled as he saw it head straight for Kira. "EEP!" Kira screamed as she dodged it just in time, but the kunai got stuck on a tree, straight through one of her black pigtails. "COME OUT! I KNOW YOU DID THAT!" she yelled and pointed to a bush. Selina scoffed. "Great Kira, an inanimate object threw your own kunai at you...you probably were careless...somehow" but even the mystery of the returning kunai remained in the girl's head. This doesn't seem right... she thought as she took out one of her black needles from her hair, and flicked her wrist. More needles appeared in her hand, so she could hold four between each of her long fingers. Heather, upon seeing her friend go into a fighting stance, put up her fists as well. "COME OUT!" The three girls said in unison, and the three gennin and the jounnin from Konoha village could do nothing but stare in confusion. "A bush did this?" Sasuke commented.

The bush rustled as Heather dropped her fist and let out an "EEP!" just like Kira, and hid behind her teacher. "THE BUSH IS ALIVE!" she yelled as Selina rolled her eyes. "A BUSH ISN'T ALIVE DAMMIT!" she yelled as she felt a presence come closer. "By now we've already given away our position with two girls screaming their lungs out...so that means.." she said as she threw the four black needles at the bush...but something stopped their path from reaching the target, and return to Selina's hand. It was none other...than a wall of sand.

"Sand...GAARA!" Naruto yelled as the wall of sand disappeared. It was indeed the Suna Village's shinobi. Gaara looked calm as usual, his arms crossed over his chest and his green eyes staring at the group. "Naruto...who are these people?" he asked.

Who is this person? Mitch wondered as he saw the young red haired boy. His hair was a slightly bit darker shade of red than Selina's, and his eyes seemed like it had Kira's black paint surrounding it. It also looked like he had a tattoo on his forehead, the kanji character of 'Ai' or 'Love'. Though, it didn't look like it was ink that was embedded in his skin...it looked...different. Mitch examined the forehead protector that identified him as one of the Suna Village's shinobi. Why is one of the Sand's shinobi here? he wondered as Naruto asked a question that seemed like the blonde boy could read minds.

"GAARA! WHY THE HELL ARE YOU HERE!" he yelled, as he pointed a finger at him.
