Naruto was walking through the hall full of different people who were dressed in fancy suits and dresses. He was caring a tray with glasses of champagne for the guests of this event. He was wearing a waiter's uniform, a wig, makeup and black contact lenses. The wig covered the boys blond hair, lenses hid his deep blue eyes, makeup made the whiskers disappear and a waiter's uniform gave him a chance to blend into the crowd more.

'' Naruto-kun, I have the target in my sights.'' A low feminine voice said shyly through the ear piece in Narutos left ear.

'' Stop using my real name. You will compromise the mission if you keep this up'' he said annoyed '' Now tell me the targets position?'' The blonde asked.

'' Y-y-y-yes Kurama-kun. '' she replied while stuttering nervously, but using Narutos code name. ''The target is 6 meters to your right'' she said a little bit louder and more confidently.

Naruto shook his head and looked to his right, spotting his target '' Got it '' he said before casually starting to walk towards him while offering drinks to people attending this party ' I hate this kind of missions... Too many eyes and cameras around… This way anything can go wrong any second now. If we spend too much time here there will be a bigger chance of getting caught…I need to get this over with already and her presence doesn't help here at all. ' He thought sarcastically giving a discreet glare to his partner for this mission ' Why did I agree to this again?'

Flashback

26 hours before the start of the mission...

Naruto walked into Tsunades office '' So Baa-chan why did you call me here?'' He asked bluntly after the office doors closed.

'' Naruto, you have a mission.'' She replied.

'' I thought my mission was to attend high school again '' he said in a mocking voice, knowing full well that this mission (to go back to school) was more of a punishment than a true mission.

Blond woman rolled her eyes when she heard her grandsons reply '' You can manage two missions at once, can't you?'' She asked challengingly.

'' Tch. Of course I can. '' Naruto said annoyed and pissed off that this woman would dare to even suggest he couldn't do it.

'' So it's settled then. You are taking this mission.'' Tsunade said with a devilish smile and cheerfully scary tone before pulling out a red folder and handing it to the blond boy '' You will find everything related to the mission here. As you see the color is red so it's an assassination. Failure is not an option'' she said.

Naruto took the folder and opened it running his eyes through the content in it '' Hmmm... I see the client has some demanding conditions... '' The blond commented.

The older woman sighed and relaxed in her chair '' Yeah... As you see the mission is infiltration and elimination of the target. The mission will start 23 hours from now and it will take place at a charity event which the target is going to attend. The client wants to send a message so he ordered that the target is assassinated on live TV'' she explained closing her eyes for a second or two.

'' I will need the floor plans for the building where the event will be held '' Naruto said reading his targets profile ' A politician hmm...and one of the high ups none the less...his death will bring a lot of heat and be on the front page of every newspaper in the country...Not to mention I have to kill him on national TV spectacularly…'

'' Yes here it is. Take it. '' The blonde woman said giving the whiskered teen the floor plans of the building.

Naruto took it and sprayed it on the Hokage's table looking over it '' Umm...I see...The problem is going to be getting out rather than getting in. Considering it's a charity event that many rich and powerful businessmen and women will be attending...The security will surely be tight as hell. So... After the job is done, it would be easier to leave without being noticed if the whole room was in panic mode. Running around looking for an exit... ''He said more as an observation to himself than anything else.

'' Do you have a plan already? Don't decide anything yet. You should wait till your partner gets here'' Tsunade said '' So that she-'' she continued but was cut short by a younger blond boy.

'' Wait, wait, wait!'' Naruto said waving his hands dismissively in front of him '' Who said anything about a partner? I work better alone and you know that Baa-chan. I don't need a partner. I'm going in alone.'' He stated feeling irritated and looked down on.

Tsunades eyes hardened as she looked intensely at the teen '' It's a mission for two. I'm not sending you in without a backup. So just Deal with it. Also having partner always helps.'' She said.

'' I don't need back up. It's a simple mission. Just in and out. It's basically a one man job.'' He said rolling his eyes '' And who is this partner anyway-'' he started asking, but was interrupted by a soft knock on the door.

'' Oh speaking of the Devil...'' the older woman commented feeling a little agitated '' Come in.'' She ordered softly.

The door opened shyly and a girl who had big breasts and dark hair came in. Naruto looked at her and his eyes narrowed '' Oh no way... Baa-chan... You can't mean...her...'' he trailed of, but Hokage knew what he meant and nodded '' No.'' He said turning around and starting to walk away.

'' Stop. Right. There. Brat!'' Tsunade yelled threateningly '' I'm not finished yet!''

'' Look, I don't trust her. You know what happened on our last mission together.'' Naruto said, sending a cold a glare towards the dark haired girl, making her flinch.

'' I know... But Hinata is a good agent ...'' the blonde woman said sighing.

'' Naruto-kun I'm-I'm s-s-so-'' Hinata started saying, but stopped when the blonde teen silenced her with a raised hand.

'' I don't want to hear it. Sorry doesn't make it better'' The whiskered teen said before sighing '' Look I can work alone or just give me anyone else, but her. Why can't Neji go in her place? He is very skilled. He is more skilled than her, who do you think she learned everything from? '' He asked trying his hardest to change his grandmother's mind.

'' Naruto-kun...'' the girl mumbled silently with her head lowered feeling hurt and guilty.

'' Enough!'' Tsunade yelled furiously '' Stop whining and grow up already! You are going on a mission with Hinata and that's final!'' She sighed rubbing her temple '' Plus Neji is on another mission and everyone is busy with their own jobs.'' She added.

Narutos eyes narrowed '' And what do I get from going on a mission with her? Give me something worth a while and I will stop whining as you say and promise to put up with this situation in return. '' He said smirking.

'' What! You work for me! I'm not required to give you anything. I'm your boss and I order you to obey!'' She yelled standing up in rage and punching a table with both of her fists breaking it in half.

'' I would, but I don't see a point. You already made me go back to high school and now you are making me work with her when I specifically told you after that one mission that I'm not, on any circumstances, partnering up with her once more.'' He said crossing his arms on his chest stubbornly.

A vein appeared on the older woman's forehead pulsing in fury '' Fine!'' she yelled and plopped back into her chair closing her eyes and thinking what could she give the annoying brat so he would take this mission 'Money? No he already has too much… Car? No he has that too… Mhhh.. Oh wait I know.' She said in her head and opened her eyes looking at the whiskered teen seriously '' I will give you three times when you can ask of me anything and I will do it. If it's for a mission, personal use or whatever and even if it goes against my beliefs, three times I will let it slide. ''

Narutos eyes widen for a second before they returned to the usual ice-cold blue '' Deal''

Tsunade let out a sigh '' So you had a plan? '' she asked trying to get this meeting to end as soon as possible.

'' Yes. I will infiltrate the event posing as a waiter while Hinata will be a guest. I will let Shikamaru handle getting us in. Hinata will locate a target while I carry out the mission. After the target is eliminated we create a mass panic in the room and blend into the crowd fleeing the room. We will rendezvous in a specific place and get back here. '' He explained.

'' Nice plan. It's always surprising how fast you can come up with a solid plan. Do you have any questions Hinata? Is there anything not to your liking? '' The blonde woman asked while Hinata just shook her head in denial '' Oh by the way before I forget the client said that there is a possibility that the target hired Sound agency to protect him so be careful. '' she warned.

'' Umm.. Sound…'' Naruto said tapping a finger on his chin while thinking hard for a second '' I will just borrow one of Deidara's toys to keep them at bay '' he said smirking evilly.

End of Flashback

' Oh… right…' the teen whose blue eyes were now hidden behind black contact lenses thought ' I guess the end justifies the means…' he sighed and continued his way towards his target when he noticed suspicious man few feet's away from the target.

The man was slightly higher than Naruto, had a well-built body and red hair which looking closer was evidently a wig much like his own, he was wearing black sunglasses, fancy black tuxedo and had a white cane in his left hand. For a naked eye he would be just an ordinary guest at the party who was blind, but Narutos eyes weren't ordinary. So when the man turned his head, the blond caught a glance of what looked like an earpiece. That's when he put two and two together.

'' Sound…'' Naruto mumbled proceeding to his target and handing out drinks to some guests that had run out of their drinks already while keeping an eye on the sound agent ' Give it to them to go undercover as a blind man. Well it's not a bad idea since blind people are usually underestimated… and also…he looks very familiar…' the teen thought for a second, but didn't dwell on it.

Slowly, not arousing suspicion Naruto reached the target ''Sir, do you want a drink?'' he asked with a fake warm smile that no one could see through.

The target by the name of Tom Sipit looked at the waiter boy who was smiling innocently at him and said while taking a glass of champagne ''Don't mind if I do''

Tom was a tall, 39 years old man with brown hair and light brown eyes. He is a family man and has a daughter by the name of Elizabeth Sipit who is around Narutos age. He also has a wife... well, he had a wife, but now he has an ex-wife since they divorced last year due to his long hours at work. Basically he is just an ordinary man who, as his wife says '' Was married to his work''. However, he was a politician and there for he was bound to make some enemies. Some worse than others. The worst enemies are not the mafia, but greedy men. They would go to desperate links to get rid of the problem standing in between them and mountain of money and that's why Naruto is here today. He was hired by one of those greedy men when Tom decided to vote against building a Fossil fuel plant in one of the small village next to a giant lake in the far north, saying ''This plant would endanger the Nature and might leak toxic wastes into the lake which the town people are using daily ''

Naruto sighed. He knew the reason of this hit and didn't quite like it. Don't get me wrong a job is a job and he would do it without a flaw, but that didn't say he has to like it. His mother used to take him to the park every day and tell him how much she loved the green, green grass and shining crystal water in the pond before she was murdered in cold blood. That's why Naruto is quite fond of nature and still likes to come to the park and just sit on the bench watching the pond which reminded him his mother's gentle warm smile.

The blond saw Tom take a sip of his drink and noted to himself that his job was almost done here. Just few more minutes and he can take his leave. Naruto sighed and got back to walking around and offering drinks to everyone before his eyes fell on the Sound agent and the deja vu hit him again. He knew he saw that man somewhere 'But where?' that was the question he wanted to find out.

The need to know where he had seen this man before made him lose all his sense of duty and put his curiosity first. Without any other thought he made his way towards the Sound agent. He didn't rush or made any moves that would make him seem out-of-place before he reached the other man. He stopped on the man's left side and looked back to see his target drink the last sip of his drink before the sound of the microphone being turned on brought his and everyone's attention to the stage .

'' Welcome, ladies and gentleman! To an annual funds gathering to help starving people in Africa charity event. I will be your host for tonight so you will be seeing me a lot. So for the starters I want to introduce to you one of our most generous investors Tom Sipit! He will tell you about our work in Africa. Now please welcome him onto the stage!'' The man on the stage said while the audience started clapping, ushering Tom onto the stage.

The politician put down his empty glass of champagne and walked gracefully to the stage, taking a microphone from the host. He greeted the public and started explaining the work they do with the money that they gather from rich people who aren't afraid to share it with commoners.

Naruto looked at the man beside him and said in a teasing tone that just came out without Naruto trying'' Sir, you know the sunglasses look really weird in a place like.''

'' And who asked you? You should know your place waiter.'' The man replied in an annoyed, cold tone which told Naruto that the man really didn't want to be here, just like him.

'' Oh, but I know my place '' The teen said pulling out his cellphone with one of his hands while the other still held a tray with three glasses of champagne'' You know for acting as a sophisticated man, wearing sunglasses inside looks and is really rude to other people. '' Naruto scolded teasingly while dialing a number on his phone, but not pushing the call button.

The man in black tuxedo grunted in annoyance '' What makes you think I'm not blind? Or something? '' he asked not taking his eyes of Tom on the stage.

'' Well, to be honest you might look like a blind person to others, but not to me. See you are now looking right at the stage and even if a blind person has his head turned to a sound the head would never be looking to a stages as straight as this.'' Naruto explained smirking.

'' Tch. Smartass. '' The agent said even more irritated now '' By the way what are you doing? Hitting on me?''

'' No. See I already have someo-…'' the blonde started saying but stopped when someone's face appeared in his mind. He traced his eyes over the man beside him once more before smirking knowingly '' I already have someone in mind that peaked my interest, but I can't say that I'm not interested in you either…However; I'm not here for that. '' The boy said truthfully.

''Oh. So why are you here again? '' The man asked sarcastically, but with some interest also evident in his voice..

'' Who? Me? '' The fake waiter asked while pushing a call button on his cell '' I'm just here to remember where I seen you and maybe also make your mission fail '' he stated expressionless.

The agent's eyes widened, though it couldn't be seen through sunglasses '' Wha-'' he started asking and turning his head to the male next to him, but stopped when he heard coughing from the stage. He quickly looked back to the stage and saw Tom on his knees coughing out blood. The expression on his face was clearly of a man in agony. People around the stage were shocked and scared of what was happening in front of them, the host was freaking out next to the politician not knowing what to do or how to help the man.

The agent was about to rush towards his charge when he heard the waiter speak once again.

'' You can't help him. He is dead already. Right now his every organ is shutting down one by one or should I say he is being burned alive from the inside of his body?. He should be in so much pain now, I can't even imagine. '' Naruto said coldly without even blinking just staring at the stage.

A sudden metallic music interrupted what everyone was doing. Their gazes fell on a giant TV screen where a text appeared that said: One down and all of you to go! I infected all of you with one of the most deadly poisons in our time, but I also left a cure somewhere in this building. Your only job is to find it in an hour before you die an agonizing death just like Tom Sipit. See ya don't wanna be ya! XOXOXO your dearest Scull~

There was a complete silence for a minute after the party guests read the message before the whole room erupted in panic. People started running around screaming, desperately searching for the so called cure. In other words it was a complete chaos and a cue for Naruto to take his leave.

The fake waiter disappeared in the crowd of people, but the Sound agent managed to get a glance of him and followed the assassin out. Naruto made turns and turns blending in with people who were panicking all around him while the man in tuxedo tried to keep up with him and not lose him in the crowd.

The young ' Konoha' agent made his way downstairs, turned to his right and proceeded to walk straight until turning a corner and walking in to the kitchen, where he found a back door leading into the alley and walked through them. Without stopping or dwelling on the panic still inside the building he started to walk towards the exist of the alley, but stopped when he heard the door once again open and close, meaning someone has followed him out.

Naruto should be scared or nervous at least that he might have been caught in the act, but he wasn't. He knew who was behind him even without turning to confirm it, he knew who followed him out, he knew because he was hoping for this to happen. The confrontation between them.

'' You followed me.'' The blond said simply.

The man in tuxedo took off his sunglasses and threw them aside before he pulled out his gun and pointed it at the fake waiters back'' You wanted me to follow you. Why?'' he asked coldly, trying to think of any reason that would make sense. Why would this person that he's never met seek him out ? ' Though, I think or sense that I know him… or seen him somewhere…I just can't place where…'

'' I wanted us to talk alone without anyone's prying eyes or ears '' the blond replied simply with a shrug.

'' About what? '' came another question from the man pointing a gun.

'' Indeed… about what? Mh…'' Naruto replied teasingly, his back still to the other.

'' Don't beat around the bush!'' The Sound agent said threateningly.

'' Well I guess the most logical answer would be that I wanted to know what did you want in our file room when you broke into 'Konoha' a few days ago?'' That sentence made the eyes of the man in the tuxedo widen in shock ''... But honestly that's not really it. '' the blond said thoughtful.

'' Then what is it?'' Narutos enemy asked losing his patience.

'' Mostly I find you interesting. Not to mention the fact that you infiltrated the 'Konoha' HQ so easily. You seem like a worthy opponent'' the boy stated.

The older male's dark eyebrow rose in a baffled manner '' You want to fight me? ''

'' No. '' Naruto shook his head '' More like I want to play a game. '' this statement confused the other even more '' You seemed so bored in school… Sasuke-kun ~ '' ….
