"*sigh* Of coarse, OF COARSE! The day I have both mission room duty and border watch, AND a bunch of tests to mark!" Iruka complained to nobody in particular. Though, he could barely hear himself over the pouring rain.
He trudged along the muddy path around the village, trying to scout through the hard rain. But that was next to impossible. He shivered as he glanced behind him. Nothing there. He turned back to the way he was facing before, and found a vague figure down the path. It looked like two people, and one was holding something. "Hey! You there!" Iruka yelled. Tch, no use. They won't hear me. He thought before running towards them.
The two figures disappeared before he could get there, leaving what ever they were carrying. He finally reached the mound, finding that it was covered in multiple blankets and a pack of some sort lying beside it.
He crouched down to it and carefully lifted part of the blankets.
"..Oh my!"
He immediately scooped it up along with the pack and sprinted straight to the Hokage.
"Kakashi, nice of you to finally hand in your mission report." The Hokage said irritably. The Jounnin rubbed the back of his head.
"Sorry, you see I was-"
"Never mind." He interrupted with a sigh. "I assume the mission was a success?"
"Yes sir." Kakashi nodded.
"That's good." He said. The doors suddenly swung open and in ran a soaked Iruka holding a bunch of blankets and a small back-pack.
"Lord Hokage Sir! Ah! Kakashi-senpai!" He panted.
"What is it Iruka?" The wise old ninja asked, concerned as he hurried around the mission deak and over to him along with Kakashi. He removed the top lair of blankets to show a unconsious young girl.
"Hospital, NOW! Kakashi, you're coming too." He said and they all hurried out of the room.
{Time Skip}
The girl was dried and tucked in the hospital bed. The nurses were gone and it was only the Hokage, Kakashi, and Iruka.
"Release!" The elderly man released the jutsu, and the girl woke up. "Iruka, check the bag." Iruka did so.
"mm, where am I?" She mumbled as she sat up and rubbed her eyes.
"Sir." The Chunin handed the Hokage a file with a letter attached to it. He opened the and read it aloud.
"Emi Hatake"
Both Iruka and Kakashi went wide-eyed.
"4 years old, born Oct 22. Mother: Hana Hatake..Father.." He paused. "Orochimaru. Kakashi...They DID Have a child!" He exclaimed before opening and skimming through the letter. "Hana died when Emi was born...Her father was the one to name her...he sent his men to bring her here because it's too dangerous for her to live with him." He finished.
"...my niece.." Kakashi said breathlessly as he stared at the child before him. She had the same silver hair and onix-coloured eyes, but at the same time they looked like a snakes. They were big and shiny with purple markings. Her complection was like his and her chubby cheeks were naturally rosie. She was absolutely adorable. She looked at him and gasped.
"Y-you have hair like mine!" She squealed happily, causing everyone in the room to smile. The chunin and Hokage took that as their que to leave the two light-haired people alone. Kakashi bent down to her and chuckled.
"Haha, well my name is Kakashi Hatake. I'm your-" He was interrupted by her tackling him to the ground in a hug.
"UNCLE KAKASHI!" She beamed. "Papa told me about you!"
He sat up with the small child still in his lap. "He did?...What did he say?" He asked cautiously, fearing the worst.
"He said that you're mommys brother and that you are a super powerful ninja!" She rambled.Well, he didn't fill her head with complete nonsense at least...
"Well your father was right about that." He confirmed."And since that's the case, I'm going to take care of you now. He sent you here so you would be safe and so you can become a ninja." Kakashi explained.
"W-Where is he?"Her big eyes looked scared. Kakashi sighed and rubbed the back of his head.
"Well Emi-chan, He's back home... He want's you to live here so you can be safe. OK?" He said in a soft voice, hopeing she wouldn't get upset or anything.
"O-Ok." She nodded, taking it rather well. He glanced out the window and saw that it was sunny again, and since he didn't feel tired he decided to go shopping with his little niece.
(6 years later)
A 10 year old Emi emerged from her room. Her long hair reaching her hips and a ninja head band on her head. She wore a mask like Kakashi and a kunoichi type of uniform. It was black and grey with finger-less gloves reaching a bit below her shoulders. Today, she would be assigned her ninja group.
"Emi-chan, are you going to arrive on time today?!" Kakashi asked in mock enthusiasm as he was lounged across the couch with that infamous book of his.
"Hardy har har. You're one to talk. But yea, maybe." She replied, reaching the door.
"Heh, well good luck! See you!" He called.
"Thanks, yea see you!" Emi called back and went on her way.
{Time Skip}
"Wow! You're on time!" A beat-up Naruto exclamed as she sat down in front of him. She raised one eyebrow at him before directing her attention to Iruka, whom continued calling out named. Well, it's the earliest I've ever been..
"Team 7. Now this group will have four members due to the odd number of gennin we have. Naruto Uzumaki, Sakura Haruno,"
"Whoot!" Called Naruto.
"I'm doomed.." Sakura murmured.
"Sasuke Uchiha,"
Whoot" Went Sakura.
"I'm doomed.." Naruto said.
"And Emi." Iruka finished, and the group calling ended soon after. Lunch went by quickly and now, team 7 was waiting in their cell.
"Naruto! he'll be here soon!" Sakura yelled. But that was soon followed by him sticking an eraser in the door.
"Haha, Naruto! you really think he would fall for that?!" The silver-haired gennin laughed. But, that's exactly what happened. They all looked up to find a tall, silver-haired, mask-wearing jouninn. No way! Emi thought.
"My first impression of you guys...I hate you." He stated. "...Meet me up on the roof." He said and poofed away. The four exchanged glances before complying.
"Soo, I want to get to know you guys. Introduce your selves." Kakashi said in a bored tone.
"Introduce ourselves?"
"Yea, you know..your name, things you like..hobbies, things you hate, Dreams for the future."
"Well how about you go first Sensei?" Naruto asked.
"Me?" Kakashi pointed to himself.
"Yea." They said.
"Right then, I'm Kakashi Hatake, things I like..hm I like a lot of things. Things I dislike..I don't feel like telling you that." His students sweat-dropped "Hobbies..I have lots of hobbies, and dreams for the future...never really thought about it." He finished.
"All we learned was his name" Sakura whispered.
"Now you, there." He pointed to Emi.
"Oh, Uhh...I'm Emi...I enjoy reading, training...I don't really hate anything..Hobbies and dreams, I have lots of those." She smiled behind her mask. Again, everyone sweat-dropped. They're so similar.. The three of them thought collectively.
(You know how it goes)
"So, we'll be meeting early tomorrow." Kakashi said as he stood and turned to leave. But he stopped and glanced back at the young ninjas one last time. "Oh, and you might want to skip breakfast, or else...you'll puke." The jounnin stated and poofed away.
"..P-Puke!?"Naruto stuttered. Emi nodded, just as afraid.
Sakura turned to Sasuke "...Hey Sasuke-"
"No." He walked away.
Naruto looked at Sakura "Hey, Sakura-"
"No." She too walked away.
"... Emi?" Naruto looked to her slowly.
"Haha, Yea I'm starving!" She laughed and dashed away with him to go eat some ramen.
