Blah Thought

Blah Scene Change or Point of View Change

(Blah) Inner Sakura

Michiru kicked the tree only to crack it halfway though. It was only a day after joining Team 7 and there was no slowing down on training for the Team. Naruto went off with Jiraiya for some private training and Sakura was doing her own training as well which left her and Sasuke in the clearing. As she was kicking the tree she remembered what happen the night before.

At Sasuke House

"Well here we are… Make sure not to touch anything that is off limits," Sasuke said as he unlocked the door to his apartment.

"I'll make sure not to touch anything Sasuke," Michiru said. Sasuke turned around to acknowledge her when Michiru trip over the rug in the hallway and ended up in a kiss with him. Sasuke pulled away quickly and let her finished falling to the ground.

"What the Hell was that for?" he demanded.

"I tripped… I didn't… I mean… I'm sorry," she stammered as she got up off the ground. When she got on her feet she made a bow to Sasuke and rushed inside. Sasuke noticed that she was blushing and slowly looked away. He grunted and closed the door behind him.

"You will be sleeping on the couch there," Sasuke said pointing to the gray sofa up against the wall in the corner of the room. "My bedroom is off limits." Michiru nodded still ashamed for what happen and settled herself on the couch. She then went to sleep.

Back in Training Grounds

The tree crashed on the ground as Michiru gave it the final kick. Sasuke glared at her as he sat on top of a boulder in the clearing resting for the day. Michiru glared right back at him and started kicking another tree. Stupid Sasuke… It was an accident… Like I would kiss a guy like him…

Sasuke's POV

Damn bitch… Why did she have to be so clumsy? She was just as bad as Naruto with the kissing… Blah…

Sasuke glared at her while venting out his anger in his mind. He wanted so much to hit her on the head and kick her into the ground but even he knew that was wrong. He watched as Michiru made the second tree crash into the ground and she sat on the boulder across from him. She brushed the hair away from her eyes and glared back at him. Why the…

Kakashi entered the clearing with Naruto and Sakura behind him. He had a piece of paper in his hand and Naruto seem to have the biggest grin on his face.

"It seems that we are to head to Wind Country to deliver a message to the Hokage there. Now this is an important mission but it shouldn't take that long. Please be on your best behavior when we get there. Now take these papers and keep them on you. We will need them to get into the city," Kakashi said as he handed Michiru and Sasuke each a paper. Sasuke looked at Kakashi oddly.

"I thought we weren't on good terms with the Sand Ninjas," Sasuke said.

"We are not, but Tsunade wants to try and change it due to the increase of activities of the Sound Ninjas on our land. We also heard from our sources that they are doing something to get the Sand Ninjas mad as well," Kakashi explained.

"I'm up for it!" Michiru exclaimed while jumping up in the air. Sasuke shook his head at the sight.

"Good then! We shall meet at the north gate tomorrow morning at 7am. Don't be late!" Kakashi said before disappearing.

"Make sure you're not late then!" Sakura yelled at Kakashi as he disappeared.

"So what do we do now?" Naruto asked.

"Food…" was all Michiru would say. She didn't eat for two days.

"Ramen!" Naruto yelled.

"Who's paying?" Sasuke asked.

"Don't look at me," Sakura said.

"I am looking at you Sakura," Sasuke said. As if it they were the magic words, Sakura pulled out her money and they all headed towards the ramen stand.

"I'm only doing this because Sasuke asked," Sakura mumbled as she paid for the food. The whole group sat down and started eating their bowl of ramen; well Naruto was technically drinking his ramen down. Michiru was eating slowly as to make her ramen last for a while.

Itachi's POV

It's been a whole day since the incident with the strange girl in the forest and Itachi couldn't focus on his mission.

"There was something strange about that girl Kisame. I just can't put my finger on it…" he said.

"Well she did survive your Mangekyou Sharingan," Kisame replied.

"It wasn't just that. I couldn't sense any Charka from her. There was a different energy there instead," Itachi said. He crossed his arms as he went back into thought.

"Maybe she is from a different world…" Kisame suggested.

"If she is then we should make her show it to us," Itachi decided. "Think of all the fun we can have there." Kisame smiled and nodded his head.

"Yeah… We can kill all we want a disappear without anyone knowing it was us…" Kisame laughed.

Michiru's POV

"AHCOO!" Michiru sneeze as Sasuke and her reached the apartment door.

"Bless you," Sasuke muttered as he unlocked the door and went inside. Michiru walked in behind him and closed the door. They both had to dragged Naruto home since Sakura gave him a head full of lumps.

"Well good night then Sasuke," Michiru said.

"Hn…" Sasuke replied and slam the door to his room.

"Well then I'll say good night to myself then grump!" Michiru yelled. She flopped onto the couch and fell into a deep sleep. Tomorrow was going to be a long day.

xleo12x- He can stay yours. Itachi is a lot better though I like Neji. I don't know why there is a connection with them two lol. It just ended up that way.

Obsessive-Compulsive-KSARA- Interesting is a good word I'll say. The title was a suggesting by a friend and it seems to work out. Hmm… I wouldn't know what would happen if all three were to get into a fight. Maybe we will find out soon.

Note: Okay I know what the title says but this mission is going to last a couple of chapters and all Naruto fans here (unless you're not then I don't know why you're reading this fanfic…) know who we are going to meet. For the people that don't know… I pity you… I also fear for your safety of not knowing. R&R!
