Sasuke Uchiha Jr. strolled down the busy Konohan streets. People rushed by him, heading for the market place. The young Uchiha placed his hand behind his head casually, and walked slowly and precisely over to Saki's place, thinking of the last few weeks all the while.

His team certainly was unusual. Haku had taken it upon himself to prank Tenten-sensei everyday. Now you would think that it would be impossible for a genin to prank a Jonin, but the guy was really creative. For instance sending Tenten-sensei 302 packages of tea, not just any packages of tea, rare packages of tea meant for only the feudal lord. That kept her busy for a few days. And Kei was just her usual scary self.

When they did finally end up training together, Tenten-sensei would spar with Haku, very eager to seek her revenge. That would leave Sasuke and Kei to spar together. The resulting battles would usually end up quite a sight. He had to admit Kei was an excellent sparring partner. His mind drifted back to yesterday's training session.

Flashback

"Well guys, time for sparring practice!" Tenten called to her three pupils. "Haku, with me, Sasuke and Kei you two spar,"

The four ninja separated, Tenten, placing a firm stance while Haku got ready to perform the Kage Bunshin(Shadow Clone Jutsu).

Kei started stretching, "Who goes first today?" she questioned, bending over backward.

"It's my turn," Sasuke raised his arm, going into the familiar movement.

With Tenten and Haku, Tenten had dodged every one of Haku's attempts to Jyuuken her.

"Please Haku," Tenten smirked, "I've been sparring with a Jyuuken user for 20 years,"

One of Haku's clones tripped her, "Yeah, but you haven't been fighting an Uzumaki very long have you?" Haku went to seal a major chakra point, only to realize his sensei had used a replacement jutsu.

"Yes Haku, but I was an ANBU for quite sometime" She went to grab Haku's leg accidentally grabbing a Kage Bunshin.

Back with Sasuke and Kei,

"You ready?" Sasuke asked casually.

Kei nodded in her nonchalant manner and lifted her arms in defense.

"Katon: Gōkakyū no Jutsu, (Fire Release: Great Fireball Technique)" Sasuke released his famous fire technique.

Kei stood still as the flames danced around her. She moved her hands toward the jug she had strapped around her hips and flipped the lid open. She formed her own hand seals, and the water suddenly expelled from the jug. She twirled and the water twisted its way around her to extinguish the fire.

"Water beats fire," she sighed calmly.

Sasuke smirked and pushed out his arm to expel his smaller version of Chidori. "But water conducts electricity,"

The lighting was crackling in bursts around her. She quickly formed her favorite seal. She quickly grabbed a stick off the ground. A twist of water came to complete a bow. With her remaining water, she made ice arrows. Electricity was shocking her legs and burning the hem of her kimono.

She aimed for the smirking boy in front of her and shot her ice arrows. "Ice is unaffected by lighting," She called out as her arrow shot through the subsiding bolts of lightining.

Sasuke shot more fire from his mouth, melting the arrow. "And fire melts ice,"

Tenten ,who had stopped sparring halfway to watch Kei and Sasuke, started waving her arms, "Stop, stop, you guys will just keep going in circles, I guess it's time to teach you guys a few new tricks,"

Who are they? Tenten thought as she showed Kei how to aim more effectively.

This girl, there aren't many in fire country who use water jutsus period, let alone these types.

It's a good thing all of them are on the same team Ten thought looking at her pupils, a proud smile on her face.

End Flashback

In his reminiscing Sasuke , accidently bumped into a silver-haired man, reading a pink book.

"Geez, sorry mister," Sasuke scrambled up and grabbed the book, ready to hand it to the man. He peered down at the cover and pulled a look of confusion.

"Why are you reading fairytales?"

The silver-haired man with a mask on his face took on a sour expression, "Ever since I got married, my wife's confiscated all of my favorite novels,"

The man than did a double-take,

Sasuke?

"Hey kid who are you?" Kakashi asked rubbing his eyes.

"Sasuke Uchiha Jr,"

OMG

"Um, kid how long have you been here?"

"A few weeks," Sasuke counted off on his fingers, "Why?"

Kakashi eyes took on a distant gleam.

"Do you have any family, kid?"

"It's Sasuke," he pointed out to the older man.

"Well?" Kakashi ignored him.

"Just my dad, Sasuke sr."

"I used to be your dad's sensei," Kakashi refused to meet the young boy's eye.

Sasuke stared at him for a minute and than jumped like a child who's had to much sugar.

"Your Hatake Kakashi, the copy cat nin whose mastered over a thousand jutsus, and the creator of Chidori!" Sasuke repeated mechanically as though he had copied every word from a textbook.

"I guess I'm pretty well known," Kakashi rubbed the back of his head sheepishly.

"My dad taught me Chidori," Sasuke said seriously, "I think there are a few ways to improve upon it though," and before Kakashi could stop him, the youth was charging up glowing blue electricity in the palm of his hand.

"CHIDORI!" he yelled pushing his fist into the ground causeing a huge crater in the middle of the street.

Sasuke glanced down at the hole and grinned sheepishily, "Sorry, I kind of got carried away,"

Kakashi smiled easily, "Don't worry about it kid, we've seen worse."

Suddenly a man clad in green spandex jumped in out of nowhere shocking Kakashi into falling into the hole.

"Hello my hip rival Kakashi!" the man bellowed, doing the same pose as Lee-san.

"Hey Kakashi," A lady with purple hair grinned down at him.

Kakashi rubbed his head, "Why hello Anko, Gai, where are Shizune and Iruka,"

"My darling wife is working most dilligently with Tsunade-sama!" Gai's teeth pinged

"And my husband's training the kids," Anko munched on her dango.

Kakashi clambered out of the hole.

"See you around Kakashi," Anko waved and jumped atop a roof.

"Yes we shall meet again my eternal rival!" Gai yelled running the opposite direction to his home.

Sasuke glanced at Kakashi oddly, "Old friends," Kakashi shrugged.

Sasuke thought for a minute.

"Hey Hatake-san, would you mind training me sometime?"

Kakashi looked at the youth for a split second, he remebered another one who had asked him to train.

"Maybe, kid," Kakashi said looking away again.

"Thanks, Hatake-san!" the boy called out, running down the street.

Kakashi wiped the dust off his shirt and went back to his fairytales. He sincerely hoped that the boy took after his mother, because he knew the village would not be able to take another traitor.
