It's "What's the Deal" with Kakashi! (cue theme music) Where today he'll start off his 3rd season finding out "What's the deal" with the Hyrulian hero, Link! (crowd cheers as Kakashi walks on the stage)

Kakashi: Hey. At least I can say I'm doing great, considering the fact that I had two sets destroyed in two seasons. But good news, I'm not cancelled! (crowd cheers) Also, since the alchemy accident, this is my third set so enjoy it! (crowd cheers even more) But the bad news, well I can't say his name in fear of jinxing myself, so the boy with the golden bat has finally left Konaha but not before taking his aggression out on some poor, innocent people. Anyway, let's bring out our guest, Link! (crowd claps as Link walks on the stage and takes a seat) Welcome to the show.

Link: (looks at Kakashi)... ... ...

Kakashi: Um...ok. So...tell us about yourself.

Link: (stares at Kakashi then looks elsewhere)... ... ...

Naruto: Say something!

Kakashi: Boy hush! (t: Maybe he can't understand me) Um...do-you-understand-the-words-coming-out-of-my-mouth-

Naruto: Hey! Maybe he's mute! Are Helians mute or is it just you?
Link: Grrrrrrrrr. (pulls out sword)

Kakashi: There's no need for that Link, heh. Naruto, be quiet.

Naruto: But I wanna know-

Kakashi: Be. Quiet. You can...put your sword up now.

Link: Enhh...(puts his sword away)

Kakashi: So...gotta girlfriend?

Link: Nyee! (pulls out a wallet-sized photo)

Kakashi: Oh! My she's pretty. Really pretty, I mean she's nice! What's her name?
Link: enhee. (flips it over to show the name "Princess Zelda")

Kakashi: Princess Zelda-oh she's a princess!

Link: Mm-hm. (nodding up and down)

Kakashi: Wow, having a princess for a girl. That's cool-

Naruto: So does she speak helian or is she mute like you? (Sasuke: What a loser.)

Link: Nheee... (pulls out sword again)
Kakashi: Link, put. The. Sword. Down.

Naruto: Well? Is the Helian-

Link: Nhee! (charging the sword up)

Kakashi: It's Hyrulian! Stop disrespecting his people and shut up!

Naruto: Ok, well is the "Hyrulian" mute just like him-

Link: Seiyaaahh! (blasts Naruto with blast from sword)

Naruto: Aaaahh! (knocked back)

Kakashi: Naruto...(sigh) Ok, do you have any other weapons besides that sword?

Link: (looked towards Naruto, then pulls out a number of mini weapons)...

Kakashi: I had a felling you did. Hm? And these are-

Naruto: Hey that hurt! Besides what can those do? You're gonna throw it at someone?

Link: Sei! (grabs a mini bomb, makes it life-sized and lights it on fire)

Kakashi: Please don't throw that! He's not worth-

naruto: Don't worry, it's only a toy-

Link: Seiyah! (threw it)

Kakashi: No! (grabbed it and threw it out the window-where it landed no one knows) Calm down, he'll shut up. he better. Ok, I knew you had a good arsenal. You've got a princess for a girlfriend, hundreds of gadgets, man. You're cool Link.

Link: (nodding and smiing)

Kakashi: Ok, any questions from the audi-

Naruto: He isn't all that-

Kakashi: Naruto!

Naruto: But I got a question this time. Do Heli-I mean (does the finger parenthesis) Hyrulians talk? Do you know how? What about your girlfriend Zigfried or Zelma or whatever it is, can she talk, or is it just you who's mute?
Link: (glaring at Naruto) ... ... ...

Kakashi: Naruto...

Naruto: You can write it down if you want.

Link: (still glaring at Naruto, pulled out a piece of paper and pen and wrote down a sentence) ... ... ...

Naruto: Hey why is he looking at me? And how is he writing without looking at the paper?

Link: (gave the paper to kakashi to read while still glaring at Naruto)

Kakashi: (reads the paper) It says, "This isn't my character, but if he doesn't cease talking, I will kill the boy in the orange jumpsuit." Oh my, uhh...Naruto I think you should really shut up now-

Naruto: Why? Who's wearing an orange jumpsuit?

Silence

Kakashi: (sigh) What color jumpsuit are you wearing?

Naruto: Huh? (looks at his clothes) Oh! (thinks about it)... ... ... oh. ... ... ...Well, can I ask another question?

Kakashi: No-

Naruto: What do mutes eat?

1 full minute of silence

Link: Seiyaahh! (seizes Naruto and puts him in a standing hold where he can't move and he has a Master Sword up against his neck)

Kakashi: Link no! Calm down, just let him go-

Naruto: Hey let me go!

Link: Hiyah! (pressed the sword against Naruto's throat, causing it to bleed0

Kakashi: Naruto, I advise you not to talk anymore.

Naruto: But he needs-

Kakashi: If there is a time to shut up, now's the time. Please, I know he's annoying, but he is needed sometimes.

Shikamaru: Name one.

Kakashi: Now's not the time. But seriously, he's been through a lot. Cut him some slack.

Link: Seieytt! (charging the blade)

Kakashi: No! he's been through too much! Kiba, show him the clip.

Kiba: Okay. (pops in the tape)

The clip is a bunch of different clips showing the abuse Naruto has suffered throughout the seasons. Orochimaru's taunts, Sesshomaru and Naraku's threats, Lil' Slugger's paranoia hits, Atem's mind crush, Edward's beating and blowing up of, and Cloud's vicious super swirly. Then the clip ends.

Kakashi: You see. Prease, don't do it.

Naruto: (terrified, crying terribly, snot nosed and whimpering) Help me...Kakashi-sensei-

Link: Sei! (pressed the sword even harder causing the wound to bleed and burn more)

Kakashi: If you be quiet I can save you! Link, be reasonable. Put him down-

Link: Heiyah! (pressing it ever deeper while charging the sword to maximum)

Kakashi: Don't kill him! He isn't worth it!

All eyes on Link, who's holding the still whimpering, blubbering Naruto. Then the unexpected happens-

Link: (tightened his grip) You're right.

All: HUH?!?

Link: There's no need to kill him, but I can knock him OUT! (bashes Naruto's head knocking him out) Hmph. (sheats his sword then takes a seat)

Kakashi: ... ... ... ... ... ...Well...ok. Are we getting back to the show? (dude backstage: Uh yeah. I guess.) Um...well, I guess I can ask you this. When you came earlier, you were well, silent. Why are you talking now?

Link: Hmm...well by analyzing the situation, I thought about it. I don't know you all, so there is no threat to me if you know how I sound.

Kakashi: Oh, I see. I really...can't think of anything else, so-

Guy: (backstage) (w) Hey Kakashi, come here for a sec.

Kakashi: Huh? Alright, Kiba keep them occupied.

Kiba: Ok! Come on Akamaru, we'll show 'em our new tricks!

Backstage

Guy: Kakashi, you know that "What's the Deal" is real popular, right?

Kakashi: Yeah, oh wait-Don't tell me that our ratings are down...I'm not...cancelled am I?

Guy: No, that's not it. It's concerning the fact that our ratings are skyrocketing; more and more people are watching.

Kakashi: That's good, right?

Guy: Yeah, but not for Link. (looks on the stage to see everyone Kiba and Akamaru's tricks) He said that it wasn't a threat to him if we did know how he sounded, but we are worldwide! Millions of people just heard his voice! Shouldn't he know?

Kakashi: If I tell him that, he'll kill us!

Guy: If you don't tell him and he finds out, he'll come back and kill us.

Kakashi: Damn, we're screwed either way. (sighs) I guess...(takes a deep breath) I'll tell him. (walks back on stage ducking the oncoming hula hoop) Kiba, you're done.

Kiba: Alright. (grabs the frisbee from Akamaru and the bonzai tree and goes backstage)

Link: He's pretty good.

Tenten: You should have seen the Flying Sofa Cushion Flip Kakashi!

Kakashi: Heh heh. Link, there's something I should tell you.

Link: (smile quickly faded to a seriously look) Yes?

Kakashi: Well there's...um...do you see those cameras?

Link: Wha-(looks around at the cameras then at Kakashi) How many?

Kakashi: It wasn' that many...I mean-

Guy: (backstage giving the thumbs down)

Kakashi: (takes a deep breath) (m) A million.

Link: (in a deathly tone) How many?

Kakashi: ... ... ...A million. ... ...More like...millions.

Link: Mi-mi-MILLIONS?!? (pulls out five bombs and started to throw them) RAAAARRGH!!
Kakashi: Link no! Everyone evacuate!

Hinata: But-but Naruto-

Kakashi: Leave him for now-

Rock Lee: No, LOOK!

Link just grabbed the unconscious Naruto, shot his hookshot out the window and flew out the studio with Naruto.

Sakura: Noooooo!

Kakashi: Naruto...I have to save him!

Guy: Are you crazy! Didn't you see what he's capable of?
Kakashi: I have to. He's my responsibilty.

Shikamaru: But don't you need backup for that kind of mission?

Kakashi: You're right. (Shikamaru: Crap, now he's gonna take me) Sasuke, Sakura, come on. Shikamaru, take over the show while I'm gone.

Shikamaru: Yeah, I know-huh?

Guy: Kakashi, you can't be serious.

Kakashi: Yes I am. (the three left)

Guy: No way. I guess you can call this "Operation: Naruto".

Shikamaru: More like "Operation: Clown". (sighs) What a drag. (cue theme music)
