Kakashi was surprised of how much fun he was actually having by doing this. Making poor Anko to be at her nerves all the time, trying to kill him each time she saw him and failing miserable in the process. Anko stood there, froze and trying her best of not losing her balance and falling straight to the floor. She turned her head slowly to her attacker and confirmed what her nose already told her, it was Kakashi. She had already smelled him at the same instant he got on her back. She cursed and waited patiently for his next move which was rare… her lack of patience was even bigger than her self control in the sweet department. Kakashi smiled, saved the kunai in his back pocket and stood up. He handed her his left hand to help her up. She rejected and stood up by herself.
-Morning, Hatake.- taking the dust off her clothes, avoiding any possible eye contact.
She was still confused about the past events and right now wasn't the perfect time to discuss their "situation". She arranged her clothes and resumed what she was about to do before the interruption. Reaching her pocket to look for her wallet and finding that it wasn't there. She tried not to panic. But I just… then an urge to murder someone invade her veins. She knew that it was more possible for her to lose her life than losing her wallet by some little movement.
-Give it back, you hentai moron.- walking directly to Kakashi who only stood there smiling.
He pointed to himself again in disbelief and trying to look innocent. He was really enjoying taking his little revenge; after all she was the one who let him in that "miserable" condition yesterday.
-Giving you back what,Anko?.- Still grinning and with both hands in his pockets.
-You now perfectly what I want.- Standing in front of him, handing her right hand to him.
Kakashi blinked and smiled even wider. Perfect. He took her right hand with his and approached it to his face. Anko blushed lightly and tried to calm herself Is he?.... He bowed a little to reach her hand with his lips and in that same instant his left hand showed up grabbing something. Anko was still too confused and nervous to notice this movement until she felt it, both of his hands were on her right hand. By the weight she noticed that he just put two things on her right hand. One was her wallet and the other…
-By your face I realize that this was not what you wanted but…-letting her hand go and approaching her left ear slowly.- We can arrange that later.- biting her left earlobe and disappearing with a white smoke cloud.
Anko stood there still frozen of the bunch of emotions that appeared in her mind at the same moment. First she blushed then her face turned into a deeply shade of crimson, she was trembling and a black shadow appeared in her eyes. The kunai was cutting her hand; she didn't care at that instant. After a couple of drops of blood felt on the floor, she reached for a napkin to clean both things with it. Once done she put both things in their respective pockets and walked to the infirmary calmed thinking about her next move.
Kakashi reached Tsunade's office in a surprising good humor, even Asuma asked about it. Kakashi just told him about a "solved unfair situation", Asuma blinked several times but didn't want to ask for more information. This was Kakashi we're talking about, he never let someone know what was he thinking of. Shizune greeted him and let him in. The Hokage's chair was giving him its back, Tsunade was looking to the sky dozing and trying not to sleep. Shizune elbowed her and Tsunade jumped by this movement. Shizune apologized and walked away as fast as she could in order to avoid any counterattack from the fifth Hokage.
Kakashi sighed and waited patiently for the fifth Hokage to fix herself for the meeting. Tsunade turned around in her chair and looked directly to his lazy eye with the same smile she gave him the night before.
-So Kakashi, How is it been?.- Still smiling and biting softly her lower lip.
-About what, Tsunade-sama.
-Oh… nothing in particular.
Tsunade analyzed him in just a second. He was calmed but she perceived a hint of happiness in his lips, which it was weird, Kakashi was never happy unless he was reading his books. Speaking of which, she looked to his pockets and there was no sign of them. She looked directly to his eye again and also there was no dreamy expression that he usually had once he already finished reading his books. Not sure if it was right to ask this but she was the Hokage for Konoha's sake… she could ask whatever she wanted when she needed as many times she requested.
-Where's your Icha Icha book, Hatake?.
-Didn't feel like carrying it today.
Tsunade thought she was about to faint. Did she hear him correctly? Or it was part of a morning joke for her laziness. It could be also a misunderstanding. Maybe it was the sake, but she didn't drink that much yesterday at the bar. She was about to call the ANBU team to order them to kill this impostor when she connected the dots. Kakashi happy and not for reading his books, early for his meeting and there's no sign of that bloody book on him. She grinned in a way that Kakashi found it unnatural and scary. He was about to drag a kunai, just in case Tsunade transformed herself in an unnatural beast that might kill him, when she laughed.
Kakashi didn't understand a thing of what was happening in there, first she analyzed him, then she asked him about the book and now she is laughing. Things are getting weirder each day since she arrived. Tsunade calmed herself and suffocated any signs of laughter. She took a piece of paper that Shizune left her on her desk and read it, mumbling some "I see" and "So that was it". Kakashi just waited for her response while thinking in his next move just in case Anko tried something else on him when he was brought back to reality by Tsunade's ejem.
-Sorry.
-Not big deal, well it says here that your team is having some problems at working together part.
Tell me something I don't know. Rubbing his neck and trying not to get impatient in front of the Hokage
Tsunade read twice the report and sighed. She was about to order the same procedure she used in these type of cases when her mind stopped her for doing it. She analyzed the situation with other point of view and grinned again, giving Kakashi goose bumps all over his body. I certainly don't like that smile.
-Well… since the problem it's getting quite out of control and we need that the team to stick together, especially that team, I command that Misses Mitarashi supervises your work. So we can figurate out what's going wrong and help them immediately.
Kakashi didn't hear a word after the pronunciation of Anko's last name. Did she just assign Anko to supervise… me? He let his jaw to open fully. What's wrong with that woman? Is she insane? Kakashi was about to jump trough the window and let himself get killed by anyone who might like to do it, and he knew there was a great number willing to do it, but Tsunade stare stopped him for doing any type madness. Kakashi just stood there, begging for a misunderstanding.
-You may go now Kakashi, you're team is waiting. And don't bother in looking for Anko, Shizune is in her way to inform Anko about her new mission.
-But…
She looked at him again with her killing stare and that was all Kakashi needed to know… there will be no change in her mind. Kakashi walked outside Tsunade's office and lead himself to his eternal doom. Just when things were pointing out to my favor.
Anko tried her best of not telling the truth about where and how she got that scar in her right hand. The nurse was mumbling about the lack of caution of the shinobis while bandaging her hand tight to stop the bleeding. Anko was day dreaming about her next plan that would make Kakashi regret the time he decided to mess with her, when Shizune arrived at the infirmary's door. Anko greeted her and asked her to sit next to her. Shizune refused by excusing herself about some paperwork she had to do before noon, so Anko let her explain of why she was there.
-Tsunade asked me to inform you about your next mission.
Already? Chewing a bit of the purple gum she stole from the candy bowl that the nurse kept on her desk.
-She says that you have to assist a team with their training; it seems that they don't get along very well.
-Why should I do it? I'm not very accurate in this sort of things. Better ask Iruka, he'll be glad to accept the job.- Anko didn't care a thing about that loser team; she had better things to do like planning her counterattack.
-Tsunade strictly said that you should do it or…
Anko chewed for the last time and looked at Shizune with a quizzical eye.
-Or?
Shizune smiled.- She will take the bending machine out the building.
The purple gum felt on the floor, the nurse curse this type of disgusting habit and cleaned it herself. Anko stood there, frozen about the news she just got and realized the consequences it might have on her if that machine disappeared. She had no other choice but to accept the stupid mission. She sighed and took the parchment that Shizune was grabbing with both hands.
-So… who's the losers team leader?.- While opening the parchment with her left hand in order to check the instructions of her mission.
-Hatake Kakashi.
The parchment felt to the same place where the purple gum used to be. She looked at Shizune searching for any chance she heard wrong and realizing that she was not joking, she stood there calm as usual.
-You got to be kidding.
-Those are the orders, you're in or…?
Anko gulped, this was serious crap. The nurse finished with her hand and mumbled something about "I'm not picking your trash" and left to her office. Anko sighed and stood up, she picked the parchment of the floor and walked where Shizune was.
-Well… I don't have much of a choice, do I?
Shizune stood there smiling and nod in affirmation. Anko sighed once again and saved the parchment in her jacket's pocket. She smiled a bit to Shizune.
-And where do I suppose to meet with them.
- Everything it's on the parchment-. Pointing Anko's pocket.- Well I have to go, paperwork to do.
And with that Shizune disappeared just like Kakashi did an hour ago. Anko took the parchment out once again and for first time she read it. She was about to meet with them in about half hour at the front gates. She needed to hurry if she wanted to reach them before their mission. She put the parchment in her pocket and smirked. Perfect chance for a pay back… Kakashi.
