Kakashi watched his student bound away with an amused look that had a tint of pride in it."Sukijo Matsunake.You shall make a fine protector of the village one day." he muttered under his breath as he put his book away and bounded after his student.In what seemed as no time at all, Kakashi and Matsunake reached their destination, Konohoa,the Village Hidden in the Leaves.When they came to the front gates,they heard orders being shourted to open the gates as tey were recongnized by the guardsmen.
"Matsunake-kun,Kakashi-sempai,it is good to see that you have returned safely.Especially you,Matsunake.Your sensei is known for his brutal training techniques."said one of the guardsmen jokingly."Trust me,you don't need to tell ME that."Matsunake replied while laughing."Have you seen a black haired woman with a blood red haired girl with her?"Kakashi asked,his face abruptly serious."Those two?You just missed them.The last I checked,the were heading towards the Hokage.Why do you ask?"the guardsmen asked seeing Kakashi's reaction to his answer.
"It doesn't matter now.All that matters is that we stop them.Sound the alarm!"Kakashi ordered,now slightly worried.All of a sudden the gate was in turmoil.Everyone was screaming "INTRUDERS!"While everyone else was running around like chickens with their head cut off,Kakashi and Matsunake started towards the Hokage.
The
nameless woman and Kyoko had just finished speaking with the Hokage
when out of the blue,they were surrounded by ninjas.
"What is
the meaning of this?"asked the Hokage.
"These women are
assassins,sent to kill you!"said a random ninja.
"And
who has told you such a thing?"the Hokage countered.
"I
did."Kakashi claimed from the doorway of the room.The group
moved and made a passage for him."And why would you make such
strong accusations of our guests?"the Hokage asked with
curiousity.Kakashi's only response was to lower his head.
"Forgive
him.It won't happen again.Will
it,Kakashi-san?"
"Ie,Hokage-sempai."
"Good.I
hope we have come to an agreement.Good day to you and your
student.Iruka!Please show our guests to their quarters.You are all
dismissed,except you,Kakashi."Kakashi received a mix of
sympathetice glances,triumphant snickers,whispers of good luck,along
with a triumphant glare from the black haired woman,as she and Kyoko
followed Iruka out of the room."Kakashi.Quiet.Listen.I want you
to keep an eye on those two.I saw the same thing you did.I guess
we'll just have to keep our guard up until their alternitive motives
are revealed."Kakashi only nodded.A few minutes later,the Hokage
dismissed him with a tired wave of his hand.
"The Hokage
ripped you a new one,huh?"Iruka asked while motioning to the
bartender to give Kakashi a drink."The usual?"asked the
bartender.Kakashi only nodded.
"Do can it,Iruka.I really
don't want to put up with your antics at the moment."
"Gee,that
bad?Since when have you not wanted to put up with my antics?I must be
getting rusty."
But Kakashi wasn't even listening.Instead,he was thinking about their 'guests'.If they were after the Hokage,and if the black haired woman was as dangerous as she looke,she would have had him dead before anyone got to them."You're awfully quiet,Kakashi."Iruka stated with a look of curiousity.Kakashi shrugged in response.After he had finished the drink before him,he rose to his feet and left to go find Matsunake."Heaven knows what trouble he's gotten himself into."Kakashi whispered with a chuckle.
Kakashi found Matsuanke in a clearing a few minutes from his home,training."What have you been doing?I KNOW you haven't been training this hard for the whole time I was gone.OK,better question,how much is the repair going to cost?"Kakashi asked in a wry tone.Matsunake's answer was an offended glare.After a few moments of silence they both burst out laughing."But seriously,what have you been up to?"Kakashi asked while cocking his eyebrow."Uhhhh...nothing?"Matsunake replied while trying not to blush from the day's earlier events.
Flasback(iness!)
Matsunake
was running around looking for his sensei when it hit him."The
bar."he said in pure annoyance.He swiftly turned around and
impacted with someone.He fell to the ground and felt something under
him,and it wasn't ground.He opened his eyes and saw the same
entrancing blue orbs that he saw that same morning.After a few
seconds it clicked in his mind what had just transpired.He felt the
blood rush to his cheeks as he realized that he was now on top of
her."Get a room"growled the black haired woman in
annoyance.Matsunake jumped up as quickly as he could and offered
Kyoko his hand to help her up.Kyoko nodded her thanks and looked away
blushing.She then ran off to catch up to her teacher.For some reason
he felt very disappointed,and he couldn't figure out why.
End
Flashback
While
Matsunake was having his flashback he had a satisfied look on his
face."Earth to Matsuanke!Come in,Matsunake!"Kakashi teased
while waving his hand in Matsunake's face."She was THAT
good,huh?"he asked,knowing it would send his student over the
edge."Ya,she's amazing...Huh?What!...Kakashi!"at that
point Matsuanke broke free from his dream world and stared at
Kakashi,horrified by what he had just said.
"I-I-I-It wasn't
like that!I don't like that look on your face!...Shut up!Nothing
happened!
"One.I didn't say anything.Two.What look?Oh,you
mean this look of pure enjoyment at watching you
squirm?Three.SOMETHING happened.And four.WHAT wasn't like
that?"
"...Shut up!Stop messing with my head!Stop
thinking like that!"
"...At least I
think!"
"Hardly!And only about dirty stuff!"
"Oh,and
you don't!"
"No!I'm too busy training!"
"Ya,so
you can impress your GIIIIIRLFRIEND!"
