Disclaimer: Don't own Naruto
They were walking to Otogakure, this mission would take about 3 months Naruto and Sasuke were looking at a map provided by the client or the land surrounding the mansion. Sakura was thinking and Sai was drawing. They walked in silence. Naruto started talking about how he's going to become the Hokage, and Sasuke was laughing. They passed the villages, and the many rice fields. It was still too early to easily acquire information on the streets so the standard action was to scout and familiarize one's self with the terrain. Though disguised, Saya checked that no one was in sight then sought a foothold on a tiled roof on her left. There was a soft clicking noise as her sandals touched the roofs but none of them was dislodged with her full weight. She quickly scouted the area, and found to her relief, that it was just a normal village, unlike inside the mansion. In Oto it was like a village in a village, or perhaps under. She wasn't used to the terrain above ground, for she in her previous life lived in darkness. The sun was beginning to rise, casting an orange glow. People were waking up and the smell of breakfast was taunting the hunger in Naruto's stomach. Sakura unpacked 4 bento boxes. She handed them out. They ate on the roof of a house. She was surprised that Oto no Sato was so much like Konaha. The morning crept by quite speedily as Naruto spent the entire time wandering pass the different stalls, silently comparing the products to the stuff he had seen in Konaha. Everybody was laughing, at Naruto when he was being chased by the shop owner, for yelling that "Konaha's was better" but thankfully they were wearing disguises. Sakura had her hair in a bun and wore a simple village kimono. Sasuke had her hair in a ponytail, which made her look a lot like…Sasuke well, you know what I mean. And Naruto dyed his hair brown. Sai didn't bother. They were walking, Naruto was rather angry at Sasuke so he took out her the ponytail, and retied it into a very messy braid. "That's better!-dattebayo" Naruto admired his handiwork. A couple of shinobi were walking. They were led by Kabuto. Everyone cleared a path for them "So he has a new apprentice?" a man asked "Hai, she also was from Konaha" Kabuto said. "It wasn't that much trouble, this one?" asked the same man. "No" Kabuto laughed "This one wasn't so troublesome" Naruto just had a random thought. Could this girl, have a sister who left. So shouldn't this mission be an S ranked? But Naruto smiled again, he was going to succeed, he failed Sasuke but this time it was going to happen. He'd be a hero, and that girl was pretty hot. He imagined that she hugging him, and everyone was jealous, he saved the damsel. (Unlike the other story he was in!) "I'm gonna ace this mission!-tebbayo" Naruto yelled. That turned a few heads, including Kabuto's. Meanwhile, his team mates were cursing at Kami-sama, for giving him such a stupid brain. "So, what's your mission? Since you have so much enthusiasm…gaki" Kabuto asked "We are going to plant trees in the park, Naku likes nature" Sasuke said in a calm voice. One thing her learned as a shinobi was to never show fear. Just be humble, in the face of "stronger" shinobi. That seemed to be one of the only rules in Oto. The others are not to piss of other shinobi, unless you can hold your own against them. "Hm, so what's your name" a shinobi asked "You seem like a good leader, but hiding something. Perfect for a shinobi." "Saya" she replied, and then looked up. And froze, it was Maski on of the members of the new Sound Five. He was one of the strongest shinobi that Sasuke has met, and could have never won against him. "Why don't you join me for a cup of tea, in the local tea shop?" he asked suddenly.
