"No! No! No!"
The eight genin jumped at the sudden appearance of a new memory. In this one Naruto was crossing arms crossed like an X in front of him. His team was there too. Naruto was yelling at the Third Hokage.
"I want to go on more exciting Missions!" The blonde complained
Iruka yelled at him, saying he was still at the bottom.
"He's as disrespectful as your are." Sarada told Boruto.
"Shut up!" Boruto yelled. "I'm nothing like him and I don't want to be like him!"
Naruto kept yelling until Kakashi Knocked him in the head, making him fall on his face. The Third decide it was necessary to explain the missions' ranking system. He told him that D rank was the best they can do at their current level. His eyes widened when he turned his attention back to Naruto. Everyone followed his gaze. Team 7 wasn't listening him, instead the seemed more interested in what Naruto was telling them about the what ramen he had the other day, even Kakashi.
"How did they become our Hokages?" Sarada asked, unsure how these Kakashi and Boruto's dad became Hokage when they themselves seem to not want to listen to the one they currently had.
"Listen!" The Third yelled at them.
Kakashi apologized. Naruto complained about how the Third was always lecturing him. He told the old man that he wasn't some kid and more and turned back around to pout, like a kid. The eight looked to the Third to see how he's react. The were greeted with him smirking and Iruka smiling. That surprised most of them. What surprise them even more was the fact the Third said he'll give them a C-rank Mission. That caught Team 7's attention. The third mentioned they are going to bodyguard someone. The job description sparked excitement in Naruto, who rapidly asked question about who it was, thinking it was someone of high importance. The Hokage calmed the blonde down and asked the client to come in. A man entered the room. He was drunk and vulgar toward team 7 when he say just a bunch a kids. Boruto stifled a laugh when the man outright insulted his dad. The man introduced himself as Tazuna and then explained that he wanted full protection.
"A Bridge Builder?" Shikadai said. "Why would a simple Bridge Builder need any kind of protection?"
"Your right." Metal Lee said. "While I like the Seventh's passion to advance, I myself am at a loss for the reason a Bridge Builder needing protection."
"Something about his story isn't adding up." Mirai said.
"Isn't he the man who built the Great Naruto Bridge in the Land of Waves?" Mitsuki asked.
"Wait!" Boruto butted in. "My dad has a Bridge named after him?"
"Yea, didn't you know?" Inojin added. "It was a question on one of our tests back at the academy, and you got a 100 on that test."
"What could my shitty dad do that made this man name a bridge after him?" Boruto said.
"If you just watch you might find out." Sarada told him.
During their discussion they didn't noticed that the scene changed to them walking down a dirt road. Kakashi was explain the nations and villages to his students. Once he was done he also said that there aren't any ninja battles in C-rank missions. The scene faded into another one. They were all still walking and the eight saw nothing wrong. Mirai and Shikadai took note that Kakashi looked at something but didn't do anything else.
"Something's wrong here." Mirai said.
"What are you talking about, their just walking." Boruto said, "I wish we could see more fights."
Just as he said that, two ninja appeared out of a puddle and attacked Kakashi, making it look like he was torn to pieces. The eight knew he had used a substitution jutsu because they saw the logs. The two enemy ninja then proceed to attack, they went after Naruto who had frozen up. Luckily Sasuke saved him, pinning the two ninja by the chain they used to tear 'Kakashi' apart. The ninja dropped the chain and went after separate targets. One toward Naruto and one towards the Bridge Builder. Before the could get anywhere they were both stopped by Kakashi.
"Sorry Naruto, that I didn't help out right away. I didn't think you wouldn't move. I got you hurt."
Kakashi turned forward, he praised Sasuke and Sakura for their quick thinking.
"He's hurt?" Metal Lee asked. "But I didn't see them land a hit on him!"
"Pssh, He's fine." Boruto said, not really caring.
All he saw was his stupid ass dad freeze up like a coward. Some of the others were looking for injuries on Naruto, not really seeing anything.
"There, he has a scratch on his hand." Chocho said. "Must of gotten it from those claw things on their arms."
"So he's a baby as well, a little scratch isn't an injury."
Naruto was about to attack Sasuke, they must of missed something he said.
"Naruto!" Kakashi yelled. "These guy have poison on their claws, you have to get the poison out by opening the wound more."
Boruto's eyes widen. It was common knowledge that even the smallest scratch with poison can become a big issue.
Naruto brought his hand up to look at it. The look on his fast showed how he hated how he froze and ended up bring everyone one down with him. Kakashi told him not to move around to much and tied the two enemies to a tree. Kakashi Identified the ninjas to be from the mist. Mentioning that they would continue the fight no matter the cost. Kakashi then explained he could kill the two easily but needed to know who the target was. The Scarecrow turned to the Bridge Builder, and revealed that they had been lied too and that this was a mission they aren't qualified for. Kakashi stated there was probably a good reason for lying but it wasn't the mission they were told. Sakura mentioned that they need to to back to treat Naruto. Kakashi agreed. The eight watched as Naruto's face changed to angry determination and before anyone could stop him, he stabbed his own hand, causing blood to pour out. The listened as Naruto made a promise to himself because he wanted to prove himself on this mission.
There the scene faded.
"Wow, he made up for his lack of response by making it so they could carry on the mission." Inojin said in awe.
"Hmmp, he should of given up and tried again." Boruto said.
"What's with you!" Sarada asked. "You don't even want to know who your father was do you?"
"No! I don't!" He yelled. "He's never had anytime to get to know me so why should I get to know him? He's never home thanks to his Hokage duties!"
"And what about the times he is there? Whether it's clones or not at least he's there and your could get to know him. You never tried have you? I'd give anything to have more time with my father then just a day every few months! Even if it was a clone, at least it would be him! Now we are have been given a chance to have the answers some of us want when our parents didn't tell us."
Sarada stomped away from the blonde. He didn't know why she attacked him like that but know she was staying as far away from him as possible. He know she wanted to know more about her parents, some of the others did too, like Mirai. He could care less, to him his dad was a stranger he never wants to met and he knew all he wanted about his mom. Everyone knew to stay away from those two when they fight so they kept their distance.
The scene came back with Naruto cuddling and apologizing to a snow rabbit. Shikadai narrowed his eye immediately.
"That rabbit was a substitute." the Nara child said.
"Huh? What do you mean?" Chocho asked.
"I can gather that the Seventh was messing around with his kunai and threw it as something he may or may not of sensed but it's spring, given the time of their graduation to now. A snow rabbit should have brown fur not white."
At that explanation they looked at the rabbit, it indeed had white fur.
"What does that mean though?" Inojin asked.
"It means it was raised in captivity. The white fur happenes when there is very little sunlight in winter, a wild snow rabbit wouldn't have white fur this time of year unless someone needed to have something small and inconspicuous like a rabbit in a forest to swap places with."
"Everyone get down!" Kakashi yelled and ducked as a ginat sword came flying by.
The sword lodged itself into a tree and it's owner appeared standing on it's handle.
"Who… Who is that?" Chocho asked.
