Hello again, sorry for the wait, i have just had my end of year exams so have been really busy, though I finally got round to finishing the next chapter. Please review as I really need some feedback.

Disclaimer: If I owned naruto I wouldn't be sitting in my room a midnight writing fan fiction, would I?

Chapter 3

Kakashi P.o.V

"That cat again." His expression blank, hers slightly irritated and the last one actually managed to glare at me, "no", you're not trying to convince me Sasuke, I want about as much to do with that demon spawn as you do.

"I don't see why we have to do this; there are many newer genin teams,"

"Neither do I bun girl, but we appear to have no choice,"

"What do you mean we have no choice, we've all completed missions far harder than catching a cat?" ok, it appears that Sasuke's lost his temper...again, truthfully I'm surprised he lasted this long. He's been doing that more often to tell the truth, less of an emotionless avenger, he's no acting like a moody teenager complete with all the necessary angst, and then some...and then a bit more. I suppose more emotion is good, but my ear drums can't help but disagree. He's louder than his previous personality suggests.

"S-sasuke-san has a point, it seems a w-waste to give a mission like this to us wh-en it could be given to newer genin," and so the final member of our group enters this pointless debate, do they not realise that the faster that we do this mission the faster the demon becomes someone else's problem. Well I best make something up, it will save us all some time, what is that excuse that sensei used on Obito and Rin... got it.

"Why do we give D-ranks to newly formed teams?"... let them tell me the answer.

"To keep them out of trouble and out of danger," a sensible suggestion bun girl, highly likely...

"ch...r." the young Hyuga mumbled something under her breath, while Sasuke spoke over the top. I'm rather curious about what it was, it was rather short for a reason.

"To help them work together as a team." Well it sounds patronising enough, so it's probably the reason we give to new genin and the poor innocent jounin who have to watch them. I wonder what's more boring, painting the fences or having to watch a group of thirteen year olds paint a fence. Well at least it gives me something to think about while then run around after the cat.

"So you already know why you have to catch the cat, don't you Sasuke-kun?" That has to be a new level of patronising even for me; I'm not sure whether to be proud or to be disgusted. "So what are you doing waiting around here for, the faster you get it done the faster we can start doing something worthwhile."... so it got them to move, but they're looking at me as though I'm some form of disgusting villain who kicks puppies or reads porn in front of children, ah... well I'm not that bad, all I did was send them after a cat/demon spawn. Bun girl and Sasuke-kun appear to have left and the Hyuga is about to follow, well I did want to know what she said, "Hyuga, what was your answer to my question?"... What the hell did I say? She's gone bright red, please Kami-sama, don't let her faint on me, I do not do fainting teenage girls, or crying teenage girls for that matter. Ok she appears to have finally calmed down, I'm still waiting for an answer, and she seems to sense it.

"Ch...our" helpful Hyuga

"Sorry couldn't quite hear that,"

"Che...our"

"Again I missed that..." ok she's starting to glare at me now, not especially scary but I must be annoying her.

"Che...our" she's growling this time... what a way to treat you poor sensei.

"You'll have to speak up I can't quite hear you"

"HOW MANY TIMES DO YOU EXPECT ME TO SAY IT? I SAID CHEAP LABOUR!" okay... Not really what I was expecting though it does make sense, and if the answer was surprising, the volume that she yelled it at... well let's just say that it was at a Naruto level. Why can I not have a nice quiet team, instead I get team crazy and then well I don't know what this team is though everyone else is acting as though it's a time bomb in the form of three teenagers. Who have left me in the middle of a forest alone... well looks like its Icha Icha time.

~~~~Scene Change~~~~Random Clearing~~~~

Hinata P.o.V

What the hell did I just do? Stupid, I just yelled at our sensei, not only that but I implied that the village was only after cheap labour, then I ran away. I couldn't even deal with the consequences, I'm so stupid. Maybe if we do the D-rank well then he'll forget all about it, activating my Byakugan to search for the others, I see them sitting in the small clearing where we waited for sensei on the first day. As I approach the clearing, I hear an aggravated voice yell out "So you finally caught up Hinata-san? What took you so long?"

"Sensei is an idiot." It's all his fault that Sasuke-san is not only mocking me but also thinks I'm slow...

"That he is now onto our plan," Tenten-san replies, wait I spoke that out loud, this is the second time today my mouth has got me in trouble, they most think badly of me for insulting our sensei... Wait, she agreed with me? Maybe they...

"Plan?" Thank you Sasuke-san for interrupting a perfectly good train of thought for a frankly pointless question, this mission is a lot easier if you plan it out, like catching bandits or criminals, except this time it's a cat. But he actually doesn't seem to get this, did team seven not practice any teamwork... no they must have, maybe he's just gone rusty from not being on a full team for so long, though if I tell him that then I'm liable to lose my head. But it seems that Tenten-san is explaining the need for a plan to him, saving me from having to find a way to explain it to him without the use of sarcasm, not that anyone ever notices it. "So we need, a plan to catch the cat fast, and not get our faces scratched off, wait Naruto got his face attack by that cat and we had a plan,"

"What was this plan?"

"Find the cat, surround it and grab it,"

"and th-at would be why N-naruto-kun got mauled..."

"So this time we need a concrete plan which involves grabbing the cat when it is unable to scratch us?" Oh good he's catching on I thought that this would take much longer to explain. "So just use Hinata-san's Byakugan to find it, Tenten, could keep it distracted or drive it into a corner, while I get the thing in a box or cat carrier." Well that was a good plan for someone who had no idea that we needed a plan.

Sasuke P.o.V

Are those faces really necessary, am I not allowed to come up with a good plan, and it is a great plan if I do say so myself. I raise an eyebrow at them, a skill I am secretly very proud of, and they seem to get it. "So shall we get on with this, Hinata-san where is it?"

Here facial expression suddenly becomes very serious, Hyuga professionalism, always there... even if chasing a cat. "About a mile north north east of us, lying in a tree, if we drive it to the rocks eight hundred metres, west of that point, could you l-locate something to catch it in that time," even her stutter isn't as strong, so being a ninja comes before being shy, unless the dobe is involved. She's looking at...why is she doing that, its distracting, oh she wants an answer, just pretend you were thinking about your answer, you were thinking about the mission, not the inner workings of a teenage girls mind. I quickly nod and she seems to accept it. "S-shall we head off then Tenten-san," and with that they leave me to find a cardboard box, where the hell am I going to find one of them, can't we just shove the cat in a bin bag and then be done with it.

Tenten P.o.V

The plan seems reasonable, and it should work, even better is the fact that I am in no danger of getting mauled by that demon in disguise. Strange that Sasuke volunteered, does he realise how much danger he's in, well its only dangerous for his face, but that seems to be very important to many a fan girl, so he'll have lots of hysterical fan girls if his face got shredded. "It's in the tree a h-hundred metres ahead of us Tenten-san,"

"Ok Hinata-chan we'll make clones to trick it, and make it move toward the cliff, and if it needs some motivation..." I start spinning one of my many weapons around in my hand, and she nodded, she agreed! I thought she would actually care for the monster, what's going on?

"It scratched Akumaru pretty badly on our first mission s-so I don't care," well there goes that problem, we create our clones and sneak around the cat to force it toward the cliff, before I throw a kunai about thirty centimetres from where the cat was, that got it moving...

Sasuke P.o.V

I heard a screech, which sounded vaguely cat like about ten seconds ago, meaning that it's coming this way, so all I have to do is grab the thing before it escapes/mauls me and shove it in the box, why did I volunteer for this job? A brown blur dives out of the trees followed by twenty of my teammates, I get ready to jump and... "NOW SASUKE-SAN!" I jump out of the tree which I was hiding in and grab it, shoving it in the box before it could cause more than minor damage to my arms, which are now bleeding, so not minor damage then. I reiterate, why did I volunteer for this job?

"W-here did you get a cat carrier from Sasuke-san?"

"One of my fan club/ army of personal stalkers owns a pet shop," one bursts out laughing, while the other is fighting the urge to start... and has now given up, it may be funny to them but there not the one who is getting stalked, by grown women at that, I'm fourteen for kami's sake, that is just creepy.

"Sasuke-san you're bleeding?" finnaly one of them notices that while they've been laughing, my arms have been bleeding, some medical ninjutsu would be handy right about now,

"Yes, and I have been for a while now, I'm expecting do collapse from blood loss any minute now," I say, stating the obvious, guilt tripping always worked on team seven.

"Stop exaggerating, the sooner we ditch the demon the faster you get those healed and the faster I can throw lethal objects at anything which moves,"

Not the reaction I was expecting, this really isn't like team seven. I think that's a good thing, I'm no longer on team crazy, but is this going to be better or worse?

So what do you think? Please review and tell me what you think :D
