Kakashi tied the remaining brother to a tree.
"These two where Chunin from the mist. Their specialty is relentless attack; they keep fighting no matter the sacrifice."
"How did you know about our ambush? And where's my brother?" The Chunin asked.
"First, your henge. A puddle on the ground on a clear sky and it hasn't rain in weeks. Second puddles don't make huf or arg sounds when jumped on." Kakashi explained.
"And your brother— "I accidently killed him, sorry." Naruto finished like he done it thousands of times and doesn't seem to care.
"He really needs help." Kakashi thought.
"Boasting, really?" Sasuke thought.
"My brother." The guy whispered to himself. "You leaf scum!"
"Now, now, don't you worry, you'll be joining him soon." Kakashi threaten.
"Jonin, if you knew they were going to attack why didn't you help your students?" Tazuna asked Kakashi.
"Well, I could have taken them out quickly, but then I couldn't learn anything. I had to know who their target was," Kakashi looked at Tazuna as his expression darkens. Tazuna gulped. "And what they were after."
"Hum, what are you getting at." Tazuna replied.
"I was wondering if they were after us, ninja attacking ninja, or if they were after you, the master bridge builder."
"So what is your plan, kit?"
"To be honest, I don't know."
"Do you want to save Haku and Zabuza?"
"Well, don't get me wrong, they don't deserve to die, but I am not Kami. I can't decide if people get to live or not. I would like to, but I would much rather save Jiraiya-Sensei."
"The old man already lived a long life, but Haku and Zabuza? They look like they are in their 20's."
"Guess you're right. I will try to save them, but it will go against their wishes from my timeline."
"Maybe so, but you do know the saying. "Letting them die is one thing, going against their wishes is another."
"You made that up just now!"
"What? No, I did not!"
"Yes you did!"
"No"
"Yes"
"No"
"Yes"
"No"
"Yes"
"No"
"Yes"
"No"
"Yes"
"No"
"Yes"
"No"
"No"
"Yes"
"Aha, so you did!"
"Damn it."
"Your ass just got looney tuned."
"We need to head back to the village for Naruto's injuries and before the poison gets to the heart." Kakashi stated have Naruto snapped out of his thoughts.
"What? I am fine and why? Don't we have a mission to complete?" Naruto asked.
"Naruto, you idiot, weren't you listening to what Kakashi-Sensei was telling us?!"
"No?" Naruto replied.
"Naruto, Tazuna has giving us a false mission. This mission is meant to be a B-rank board line A-rank mission, which means it's no longer our problem." Kakashi explained.
"What? You can't do that! What about the bridge builder?" Naruto countered.
"Naruto, Tazuna disobeyed the rules." Kakashi tried to explain once more.
"And what? Let a man die? We are seeing this through!"
"Naruto a ninja must know his limits and you have reached yours. The poison is getting closer, you will die."
"I don't give a damn. I am completing this mission no matter the cost!" Kakashi was impressed at Naruto being oblivious to the fact that he is dying. Naruto then remembered something his past foolish-self did. He took his Kunai and impaled one of his injured hand and did the same with the other. Everyone looked at Naruto with shock. Yes, even Sasuke.
"Maybe he needs more help than I thought." Kakashi thought.
"Naruto, what are you doing stop that!" Sakura yelled at Naruto.
"Ah, I remember this. The first time you used Talk no Jutsu. It seems only yesterday that you created this terrifying jutsu that even the gods can't stop."
"Dattebayo!"
"No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. Never again."
"Datte—"
"SHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH."
"Listen up, you old man! From this day forward you will be protected by my hands and I'll take it upon me to slaughter each and every man that mean you harm! Believe it! Dattebayo!"
"He definitely needs to seek help." Kakashi thought.
"Naruto, uh that was really cool how you took the poison out and all eh, but if you lose any more blood, you're going to die." Kakashi said. A brief moment of silence filled the air as Naruto began to realize. He isn't a medic after all and hate hospitals, how was he supposed to know?
"Good idea to stop the bleeding now." Kakashi reminded.
"Kurama, you got this, right?" Naruto asked his partner.
"Yeah, yeah, come on Naruto you had a hole through your chest and a sword. I think I can handle a kunai through your hand."
"Come on Naruto, show me your hand." Kakashi asked. Naruto wasn't too sure to let him see his hand since his partner was healing it, but since Kakashi already knows about the Nine-tails it shouldn't be a problem.
"The wound, it's already healed." Kakashi took some thread and tied it on top of the blood making sure his students can't see the healed wound. "This healing power, is it from the Nine-tails?"
Kakashi looked back at the tree where he tied the brother. He's gone. "Shit."
Somewhere in the mist…
"You failed?!" Gonzo exclaimed. "I put out big money for you! I thought you are supposed to be hot shot assassins!"
"Stop whining." A mist Ninja with a sword said. "This time, I'll go personally and this sword will be the last thing he'll ever see."
