It
was the day when Naruto was going on a mission with Neji. They had
selected an A-rank mission just north of their town. Hinata was home
with Kiri and Temari and Shikamaru, who had their own one and a half
year old, were visiting also. The mission was going to be fighting
off a small force of elites that were massacring people in their
sleep. It was about three and they arrived in the city center. It was
a small town, nothing really distinct or amazing about it. It was an
odd target for high class marauders.
"We should get some lunch
I suppose" said Naruto.
"Well there is a seafood place right here" said Neji.
"Then what are we waiting for?"
They both entered and ordered their food.
"So Neji. These guys are murderers and they kill people in their sleep right?"
"Yeah so we wait till night then kill them or take them alive whatever is easier. It pays the same no matter what"
"Okay, so do we know where they might strike?"
"They are on a consistent pattern that shows them following certain addresses so yeah, we'll get them" Their food came and they ate and were good and full before they set off to ask the mayor a few questions.
"Hello Kamimura-sama" said Neji.
"Ah, hello there Neji. Thank you for your contribution to the last mission. It was very helpful to rid this place of those gangs and now people aren't scared when they walk down the street"
"No problem. I have some one here that I want you to meet" said Neji.
"The name's Naruto Uzumaki. Nice to meet you"
"Hello Naruto. I believe I know your name from somewhere"
"Uh, yeah I won a contest here one year. It was like a Ninja Proverbs competition" That was not a good lie on Naruto's part but...
"Ah yes that. Good job" The mayor was incredibly forgetful but he was funny and everyone loved him.
"Naruto" said Neji
"Yeah?"
"I think we should take up our positions, its getting dark"
"Okay. Bye mayor!"
"Bye you two"
Neji pointed out the positions they would wait at for the marauders. And wait they did.
