The wind howled ferociously against Naruto's ears as he leaped out of the 1232nd floor of Konohagakure First National Bank. He quickly reached terminal velocity as he entered back into the atmosphere. His skin began to singe and his ears began to sing as he rapidly descended onto the streets below, if it wasn't for the kyuubi's chakra that flowed through his veins even now, he would be a mere splat on the pavement when he landed.

Focusing chakra to his knees and bending them down he landed with a hard thump that alerted the civilians around him to his presence.

"Did anyone see a man with a large safe jump down here before me?!" Naruto quickly yelled out to the populace around him.

Everyone seemed to be too much in a daze to respond, and Naruto quickly asserted that he would need to start moving soon if he wanted to keep on the trail of whoever stole the safe.

Naruto let the chakra flow down to the soles of his feet as he began to concentrate on chakra signatures around him. Surely the thief to survive a fall like that would need a large amount of chakra, right? He quickly locked onto a source larger than the surrounding static.

He pushed off hard with his chakra imbued legs and leapt to follow the speeding off source of his recent troubles.

As he flew down the highway, the wind howled around his ears as a strong gust slowed his pursuit. "Gah! No good dattebayo, I'll have to do something about this wind resistance" Thinking quickly Naruto jumped onto the nearby overpass the thief's trail led him to. Thinking quickly he took a step forward with his left leg, leaned back and bent his right leg, causing him to slide as he removed all friction below him using his chakra. As Naruto rapidly accelerated toward his target, reaching 200mph he leaned forward and kicked off toward the large safe.

Naruto closed in, the wind rapidly decelerating him as the safe caused the highway to crumble beneath it's weight. Thinking quickly Naruto created a shadow clone and formed a rasengan in his hand while attaching a frag grenade to his clone while a third clone threw them both at the mysterious man who was now less than 50 feet away. Naruto quickly smashed the chains dragging the safe, while his clone grabbed onto the man and exploded, knocking the man down and stopping him in his tracks.

"There is nowhere for you to run dattebayo!" Naruto said, triumphantly

Suddenly, Shizune, now middle aged and much more attracted to the strapping young Naruto, arrived, with a couple of fellow Jonins showing up shortly after.

"Great work Naruto" Shizune said, smiling. Naruto beamed at her and gave her a thumbs up. One of the generic Jonin who had arrived approached the masked man, while another went to check on the safe. Turning the handle the safe began to open, when the Jonin near the masked man shouted "EVERYONE GET BACK" Suddenly an explosion went off. The flash blinded everyone in the area sending them flying back with catastrophic force.

Naruto's ears rang as he looked around, unaware of his surroundings, and incredibly dazed by the explosion. Where the Man had been lay a giant gap in the long overpass, with the Jonin, Shizune, and Naruto with the safe on one side.

"Is everyone okay?" Shizune asked, coughing up some dust. "I'll be fine... dattebayo..." Naruto replied wearily. "Good," Shizune stood up, "Lets get that safe open" there was a sound of shifting metal as one of the Jonin, the strongest, turned the handle and pulled the safe open. Despite being easily 7 feet tall, the safe was well over twice his height and cube shape, as it opened the Jonin gasped collectively. The safe was empty.

"It can't be..." Shizune said in disbelief "How did he empty it? Why did he kill himself?"

"Nevermind that, the hokage has to hear about this immediatly, there is nothing left to do here, I'm afraid... the First National Bank of Konohagakure... has been robbed"

There was a loud bang as a hooded figure turned toward the highway just 50 miles off. "All according to schedule" A large shadow approached him as a figure revealed itself. "Did you have any problems?"

"No, all went exactly as planned, dattebayo." Naruto said quietly, handing the man a large bag with the vault's contents.

"Excellent, all according to keikaku" the hooded figure went on "The moment your rasengan severed the chains to the safe it was the perfect time to loot it, and because you were in pursuit the whole time, nobody thinks that the thief ever had any chance hide it's contents. Little do they know he was nothing more than a hired mercenary. It was so nice of you to tell me exactly where the safe was. As promised, I will now tell you where you can find Sasuke..."

After receiving the information on where Sasuke is, the hooded man shunshined out of the village.

Naruto gazed down at the village, and popped out of existence.

The snow was falling, as it often did in the Land of Snow, a well-dressed hooded man walked through the forest to an old seemingly abandoned house, several stories tall and made of wood, a traditional enigma in a rapidly-modernizing world. The crunching of his footsteps echoed into the empty house. He entered the house, the door creaking, removed his boots, and shook the snow from his hood. He ascended the stairs up into a study room above, the room was dark, he lit a nearby torch and sat down, still shivering from the cold.

"The cold bites harder with age, doesn't it, Sasuke?" Muttered a voice behind him, Kakashi removed his hood and looked up, into the eyes he remembered from years ago. "If the theatrics are supposed to scare me...you have the wrong man, Kakashi". Kakashi silently opened the draw of his desk, quickly glancing at the hilt of a Ninjatō, and letting a subtle smirk cross his face. "I don't mind you working for a little money on the side, I'd just prefer it if it didn't involve selling our secrets." Sasuke smirked mockingly "If the Hokage wanted me dead she'd have sent a Double-Jutsu Ninja. I know about you, you're profile shows no Jutsus, and to kill me it would take-"

"Two." Finished Kakashi.

In an instant Sasuke withdrew the Ninjatō from his desk and held it centimeters from Kakashi's neck. "Shame" Smirked Sasuke "We barely got to catch up after so many years."

Now it was Kakashi's turn to smirk.

"I know where you keep your Ninjatō, that's a start." Sasuke looked closer at the blade of the Ninjatō, and his eyes grew wide with fear. It was made of wood.

Kakashi leaped into the air and two glimmers of steel flashed in the torchlight, Sasuke was pinned to the wall, blades through both his shoulders and both knees, powerless.

"Now" began Kakashi, dusting off his jacket and wiping sweat from his brow. "WHERE IS YOUR EMPLOYER?!"
