A/N: eh...I know I'm super late because I got lost on the road of life for the past couple of weeks...yeah. *sigh* I knew channeling my inner Kakashi has some side effects despite the +10 increase in badass-ness. Again, super sorry and yes, this is written in a rush.

It was known in Konoha that Kakashi was the sensei of the legendary Team 7, consisting of an ex-missing nin and the heir to the Uchiha clan, a pink-haired medic-nin with skills that could someday rival the Godaime Hokage, and the Kyuubi jinchuuriki who ultimately surpassed his father Minato Namikaze and his godfather Jiraiya. It was also established that Kakashi had a horrible habit of turning up late to meetings. What was not known (but known to us fans), however, was that Kakashi barely taught his pupils anything. Sure, he stressed the importance of teamwork to his first ever genin team, taught them how to walk on trees with chakra, taught Sasuke the Chidori, and taught Naruto how to do the nature manipulation and combine it with his Rasengan, but the members on his team learned far more from the Sannin. And so, because of this, Kakashi decided that he was going to teach them something very important to all of them.

When Naruto first heard that Kakashi wanted them to meet at the training field that afternoon, he was more than surprised. He sputtered a bit, spraying bits of pork and ramen noodles over the countertop of Ichiraku Ramen before hacking and coughing as one strand of noodle found its way into his windpipe. Sakura whacked Naruto on the back before flashing a small smile of gratitude at Sasuke, who delivered the news. She glanced at the chakra-absorbing seal on the last Uchiha's wrist before deciding not to comment or ask. Sasuke shrugged and walked out of the entrance to the ramen bar.

Later on…

Kakashi watched as three shadowy figures approached the training ground. He smiled under his mask before pulling out the infamous orange book.

Naruto was the first one to spot him before letting his jaw drop. 'There's no way,' he thought, 'No way Kaka-sensei could be earlier than us…'

It seemed that his companions also spotted their jounin sensei. Kakashi lazily waved and the three ninjas ran forward.

"I'm going to show you a new jutsu," Kakashi drawled, nose-buried in his literature. "It's very…interesting."

And with that, the silver-haired jounin watched with slight amusement as his former stared at him as if he had grown another head.

"Watch carefully," he said offhandedly, "because I hate to show you this again."

Sasuke smirked instinctively at Naruto, who also instinctively huffed indignantly. They watched silently and closely at their sensei who began a succession of quick hand signs, as different thoughts ran through each of their minds.

'Ram, Boar,' Naruto thought, 'then Ox, then Tiger…Ok...I can't wait to try it!'

'Hn, this better be worth my time,' Sasuke thought, in true Uchiha fashion.

Sakura thought, 'What kind of jutsu is that? I've never seen it before.'

Kakashi watched bemused at the different emotions flashing across the face of his former students before channelling chakra (or at least seemed to channel). They would definitely get a kick out of this, he thought.

He spread his thumbs and index finger apart before smiling like he never done before shouting, "This is a bridge!"

His students took one look at the thread between his fingers that formed a bridge, before charging after him with their fists raised, yelling about "a damn irresponsible pervert of a sensei".
