Chapter 1: Team 3's mission

"My dad said he had to this this mission when he was our age!" said Kimaru,Naruto's son, as he ran along the path following the tracks off the dog they were tracking.

"That's what my dad said to" Itari,Sasuke's son, replied.

" My mom didn't live here and my dad wasn't in your dads teams, so why don't you both shut up and focus on the mission" Shikari,Shikamaru's daughter, said to her teamates. The boys just laughed, that is until one couldn't move and the other got hit with a huge fan. "Laugh at me now, Damn boys."

"Alright this is getting boring, Byakugan!" Kimaru said activating his bloodline, "the dog is a mile north of here" Kimaru said.

"Oh my god, the uzumaki brat actually did something useful" Shikari said as they turned to head in that direction.

About 5 minutes later they spotted the dog laying in a clearing licking its paws. "Alright smart girl lets see why you were supposedly the smartest in the academy." Itari said challengingly.

"Stupid, this is simple, I hold it with shadows and Itari comes and picks it up, done deal." she said this as if she were talking to idiots, though in her mind she was. A few minutes later a look of shock crossed the dogs face and it couldn't move. Itari walked out into the clearing and began to pick up the dog. three kunai flew through the air, 2 were enemy one was Kimaru. Kimaru had saw the kunai with his byakugan, his kunai hit the other two and they flew off path. They hit a nearby tree with a dull thud. The three took up their ready positions. Their sensei,Akuma jumped down from a tree. " ahh, you guys must always be on guard if I were an enemy ninja, Itari would be dead right now." Akuma said testingly.

The team turned to see the dog scamper into the woods. " Akuma sensei, you let the dog get away!" Kimaru whined.

"That's alright, I have an announcement for all of you after you finish this mission anyway" Akuma said. He was gone instantly.

" We need to finish this mission to find out, what that announcement is" Itari said. They both turned to Kimaru.

" Your our tracker, now find the dog" Shikari said .

"...You two need to find a way to track too...Byakugan." Kimaru mumbled dully. " Found him, He's 3 miles west of here." The others looked at him puzzled.

"That dog is fast, He couldn't move that fast on his own...Unless...He may have been dognapped..." Shikari said shocked. "We have to get to him quickly."

The three set off and they reached the dog in about fourty five minutes, the man who had been running with him was sitting under the tree drinking from a flask of water.

"Kage Mane No Jutsu" Shikari whispered when her shadow had reached the man and the dog. " Can't move now." A kunai came across Shikari's throat.

"Yes I can" The man said threatingly. " and if any of you two move the girl gets it."

Itari and Kimaru looked at eachother and began dancing wildly. " Please, do whatever you want as long as it caused pain" Itari said still dancing in a wild fashion. Just then the real Kimaru's hand knocked the kunai out of the mans hand and threw him against a tree.

" Little brats" the man said, " These are the best fighting dogs in the land!, This thing will make me rich!" The man got up and lunged at Kimaru, Kimaru was much quicker and hit him with gentle fist style taijutsu. The man lay on the ground in a daze laughing at the tree histerically.

"Thanks for saving me." Shikari said humbly

Itari laughed," It was a win win situation, if he killed you we wouldnt have to listen to you whine all day, and if we saved you, we complete the mission."

Shikari hit him with her fan hard.

Kimaru put the dog into the air," Aww your kinda cute, You know that!" The dog jumped down and clawed Kimaru in his face. " You hurt though..." Kimaru said in a dazed voice.

Shikari sighed,"Stupid, let me see him." Shikari took the dog from Kimaru and cradled it in her arms." Your a good boy aren't you." she said and the dog was immediatly calm.

" How did she get so good with animals!" Itari said loudly.

"That's because dogs can tell when someones and idiot." Shikari retorted smartly.

"Or maybe because thats the only mate she will get in life." Kimaru said while falling down laughing.

Shikaru hit Kimaru with her fan. " Now lets take the dog back and figure out what this announcement is." She said taking off.

An hour later the team sat in the Hokage's office waiting for their sensei. After waiting for five minutes Akuma walked into the door," I see you guys completed your mission." Akuma speculated. " Hokage sama will be telling you guys the announcement in a minute." As he finished his sentance Naruto walked in. He sat down in the chair behind the desk in front of them. "As you may know, Konoha is slowly losing soldiers and our policy states that only chuunin and higher rank can fight for the village in war." Naruto shifted in his seat. " This is why I'm holding an early Konoha Chuunin exams next week."
