"He better not be late." Growled out Naruto as he and his brother walked towards the entrance of Konoha.
"Yo." Kakashi said to the approaching boys. "Hey." Kaze responded, his young voice cold. "Ikuzo! (Let's do this!)" Naruto exclaimed cheerfully. They disappeared into the forest as blurs, leaping from branch to branch.
Flashback
"Your objective is to retrieve a scroll rumored that it belonged to the fourth." "Where is it located?" asked Kakashi who wasn't reading his favorite book. ("There's a first for everything." Kyuubi had growled) "It is supposed to be in a fishing village at Wave country." Sarutobi said "If anything happens, retreat." "WHAT! That is SO retarded! We ain't weak!" cried the infuriated blonde teen. "Your safety is more important than the scroll." Answered the Hokage in a calm manner. "Whatever.""I shall make sure he does." Kaze spoke this time.
End Flashback
They arrived at the temple without difficulty for it was merely near the border of Wave country. "Remember the mission Naruto." Kakashi said as he read his 'favorite' book (If ya know what I mean!). "Pervert." The blonde muttered, rolling his eyes. "So Kaze, what do you say about the request?" questioned Kakashi after Kaze skimmed through the scroll he had handed him; Naruto reading over his shoulder and the canines as well.
The black boy sighed before rolling up his sleeve, revealing his upper right arm. On the arm was a black tattoo. The tattoo had a horizontal line that was curved slightly downwards; under it were three smaller (vertical) lines in a row. The two outer lines were the same length as each other but shorter than the middle one.
Kakashi gasped "Isn't that a legend?" he managed to say "My village is quite real thank you." Kaze said coolly "We get this line," he explained, pointing to the top one "when we become genin. Then chuuin, jounin and elite jounin." Continued Kaze, pointing to each before stopping at the middle line.
"Ah, but then why are you here?" questioned Kakashi, his only visible eye narrowing. "Classified information by me, Kaze, the Hokage and the Kagekage." Naruto 'happily' interrupted.
"Anyhoo, on with the mission!" Naruto said with glee while Kaze and Kakashi sighed at his childishness. As they reached their destination, a monk came up and asked "Why do you wish to visit our humble temple?" the monk bowed "We seek a forbidden scroll rumored to reside in this shrine." Stated Kakashi while the three bowed back. "Ah, you are the shinobi who have come to retrieve the scroll. Well, you're not getting it so easily!" the monk, or now revealed as a mist missing-nin with three other associates. "Oh joy." Naruto groaned.
"Now Naruto, our objective is to get the scroll. So run along and get it." Kakashi said, his uncovered eye showed them he was smiling.
"What? Why me?" Naruto whined while blocking kunai thrown at him. "Because you have to and, you are weak." Kaze 'nicely put'. "Now go!" Kakashi yelled and a still grumbling/scowling Naruto darted into the temple.
Kaze and Kakashi turned their focus on their opponents, two on one.
"You sure you can handle them?" Kakashi asked doubtfully, dodging a Suiton jutsu aimed at him. "What do you think." It was more of a statement than a question.
Kaze appeared behind one of the mist-nin. He disabled the mans legs with well aimed hits, grabbed the man's left arm and twisted it. The shinobi was forced to bend forward, getting his face smashed into Kaze's waiting knee. He then kicked the middle-aged man in the stomach, chest and face before giving a low kick, making the man fall. Kaze twisted the arm more, effectively dislocating the shoulder with a crack.
"Suiton Suishouha!" (water wave) cried the comrade of the man, sending the jutsu at the Kaze. Before the man could gloat, he heard a yell of 'Katon Karyuu Endan!' (fire dragon flame missle) and was incinerated.
Meanwhile Kakashi was kicking the shit out of his opponents quite easily. The men rushed at him "Water Blast no jutsu!" A water dragon appeared, rushing at Kakashi.
While dodging the blast, Kakashi pulled out two kunai and reinforced them with charka. He threw them and the hit their mark.
"That was boring." Kakashi muttered as he pulled out an orange book. "Hn." Kaze merely grunted as they made their way into the temple.
With Naruto
"They leave me some little pipsqueak?" scoffed a burly man. Naruto yawned and said "Geez, an arrogant son of a gun." "Why you little fu-"
The Naruto in front of the man poofed away, revealing that the man was talking to a Kage bunshin. The real Naruto was already behind the shinobi. "What, you think I'm a genin?" Naruto pulled out a kunai and stabbed the man in the back.
As the man fell, Naruto sighed, inwardly complaining about getting the weak ones. He continued his search and soon found it. The scroll.
There was a seal on the scroll where it opened. Naruto grabbed the scroll with a firm grip and started to try and open it only to be stopped by Kaze who muttered "Not here." Naruto reluctantly agreed as Kakashi appeared beside them and started to head to Konoha; Report- Mission Success.
