HeartBrokenHitomi: Hi! Omgsh, I only have one review . Oh well, one is better than None! Ok so um I have some confessions, I'm a terrible speller! And if you haven't noticed yet…yay! I'm doing my best not to make mistakes. Anyway, I also must apologise for the long wait. This chapter isn't the best and I hope I don't confuse anyone. This story is not following the actual story line. Oh, and I don't own anyone except Kana.
Chapter 2 – The Mission –
It had been one day exactly since the Kana and Kakashi had fought in the middle of town. Kakashi had already completed his "pre-mission", and gotten Kana back on the team. Almost immediately they left to complete the mission. It seemed like a simple mission, to do a border check. The only twist was that the group of Water Ninja that Zabuza had come from could have crossed over onto Konoha borders.
Since Zabuza was dead, they went on a selfish rampage. No one could keep in check, they stole, they killed and basically ran amuck in whatever town they came across. But lately they have been quiet. And rumor has it that they decided to become followers of Orochimaru, who's hide out was still unknown. And on the side, the two jounin were supposed to try and find out where he is.
"Kakashi-sensei, can we go yet?!" whined Naruto.
"No, we have to wait for Kana-chan and Sakura to get back. Their making sure there aren't any traps." Kakashi responded dryly, as if he had answered this question a million times. Sasuke remained quiet as usual. Team 7 had stopped to do a routine 'trap check'. This was their first stop. And Sakura had offered to go first. Kana was the better 'trap sensor' than Kakashi, and she would take one student at a time and teach them about traps, how to find them, and how to disarm them. Kana and Sakura had left just 5 min. ago.
"Kana-CHAN?" Naruto questioned with a smirk on his face.
"Fine, I will call her Kana." Kakashi glared at him.
"What is the big deal with you guys anyway?" Naruto asked bluntly. Sasuke turned his gaze to his sensei.
"Nothing." Kakashi lied. Naruto got up to sit in front of Kakashi, eyeing him.
"Nope, you're lying" Both Genin muttered. Kakashi was surprised.
"How would you know?"
"It's easy to see." Both again responded.
"Is it really? So, what's so easy to see then?" Kakashi asked acting bored.
"Well, that you love her. I mean, its written all over your… eye." Naruto nodded smartly. Sasuke rolled his eyes.
"Sensei, does she not 'love' you in return?" Sasuke made the bunny ears around the word love. All of them looked at him weirdly.
"Feh, how should I know, she' a girl. Her kind is confusing." Kakashi spoke as if he was an expert himself.
"I bet she does. Have you ever kissed her Kakashi?" Naruto interrogated.
"N-no, what would make you say that Naruto?"
"So, that's a yes. Oh My God, you guys had sex!" Naruto suddenly screamed out. Kakashi slammed his fist into the blondes head.
"No! We haven't!" the jounin shouted.
Suddenly a scream erupted from the trees. It was coming from the direction of Kana and Sakura, though it did sound like Sakura.
"Shit! Naruto, Sasuke, lets go" Kakashi dashed off toward the sound of Sakura.
Trees went flying past the remainder of Team 7. The only thing on their mind was the safety of their girls. Suddenly there was an explosion a head to the right. Kakashi motioned to the right and the three of them sped into a break in the trees. A lake was in the middle and it was frozen. Kakashi studied the area. Smoke was coming from the other side of the lake and something pink and red was on the ice.
"Sakura-chan!" Naruto shouted and started to run to her when Kakashi held up his hand.
"Look for traps, Naruto. A dumb Ninja would go running-"
Naruto was already half way to Sakura.
"Sakura-Chan! Sakura-Chan!" He shouted repeatedly. Suddenly a dark figure rushed out of the trees, heading straight for Naruto.
"Naruto!" Kakashi yelled to alert him.
Then another figure bolted from in front of him and tackled him just in time. The first figure slammed his knuckle fists into the ice, barely denting it. Naruto was the first to move, shaking off the force of the second figure. He looked at her, it was Kana. She was panting from her mad dash. She stood up and then swiftly cuffed him in the head.
"Baka, you don't go running for bait. Didn't you listen when I taught you about traps? And thanks for making me come out of my hiding spot."
"You're the baka! And I can't make you do anything!" Naruto rubbed his sore head.
Kana's eyes caught a black blur heading straight for them, instinctively, she wrapped her arms around Naruto and turned so her back faced the blur. Her eyes slammed shut as she waited for pain to erupt from her back. There was a clang as metal hit metal. Kana felt someone's back against hers. It was Kakashi.
"And what did I tell you about using yourself as a shield?" He eye smiled at her. Then turned his attention to the enemy, "Who are you?" He demanded.
"I am no one of your concern, Kakashi, of the Sharingan."
"He is a missing village hidden in the Mist ninja, and probably works for Orochimaru." Kana standing up straight, allowing her mis-matched eyes bore into the Mist Ninja and letting go of Naruto.
"Be silent, bitch" The Mist Ninja's breath come out in a light fog. Kakashi's eye narrowed and he thrusted out his Kunai and sent the enemy back, skidding on the ice.
"Sasuke, Naruto, get Sakura and stay on the side." Kakashi ordered. Kana pulled out her own Kunai knife and followed Kakashi into battle.
