Chapter 13

Crash's family.

Seth's P.O.V.

"Uh, what happened?" I moaned out after waking up on something. I shook my head trying to get some sense back. I was in Naruto's apartment. "Hey glad to see you're finally awake." I heard the, oh so familiar voice. "Naruto?" I said kind of groggily "Yep it's me." "What happened?" "You blacked out after the earpiece Kakashi gave you malfunctioned. And well Crash took you to the hospital I came with him. The doctor told me to take you home. So I did. And that's about it." "Okay thanks from putting me partially in the loop." I said in a sarcastic manner. "We need to head to the daily mission place they can't get it without us." "Just give me a minute." I said as shifted my feet to the floor my muscles sore from disuse. I then got up and stretched out my arms and popped my back. "I was pretty much good to go until my stomach protested with a few hungry growls. Naruto started to laugh a bit before he tossed me an energy bar. It looked homemade it had a mixture of nuts and berries. But I also noticed something in it that looked like jerky. I quickly bit into it thinking it was going to probably taste kind of gross but I was wrong it didn't. Only thing was that it had a weird aftertaste. But heck it was very filling I'll say that.

Well after I finished it we went to the team training ground. On the way there I noticed a box painted like a rock following us. I was starting get frustrated by this as when we sped up it sped up. I got sick of it really quick and decided to throw a kunai at it. Causing the box to explode and for 4 kids to appear in its place coughing as the cloud of smoke dissipated. "I think we used too much gunpowder. Anyway boss how did your friend see through our disguise?" The lead kid asked Naruto. "Easy you moved too much and rocks aren't square." I said giving him an answer. "What do you want Konohamaru?" The kid was wearing a yellow shirt with the leaf village symbol on it he had green goggles on his forehead much like Naruto used to wear when we were in the academy. His black hair sticking out from the middle of them. He also had shorts on they had a few patches. The other 3 were 2 boys and one girl they were all wearing goggles like Naruto used to wear. The girl was wearing a pink shirt with a red loose fitting jacket that looked sorta like a scarf and wearing tan pants. She had orange hair in 2 pigtails that were standing straight up. Then the two boys one of them had black hair that was flattened out he had glasses and a runny nose must have been allergies. His shirt was a dark navy blue with a grey blue running along where the zipper was. He also had tan shorts on. The other boy reminded me a lot of my stalker sensei. Similar blue eyes similar silver hair. It was like looking into the past, very creepy.

Only thing different was that his clothing was the opposite color of my sensei and, the fact that he didn't have a sword instead he carried a dagger. "Hey kid." I said towards The kid that looked alot like crash. "What's your name?" "Troy. Why do you ask?" "You remind me of my sensei Crash." "Oh you must be talking about my uncle. I've been staying with him ever since my mom disappeared." he told me. "Anyway boss you said you were going to play ninja with us today." "Sorry Konohamaru were running late to get our mission." "Aw but you promised." That when I decided to say screw it made a shadow clone for them to play with. When Naruto saw what I did he copied. "There now we can be in 2 places at once. Come on Naruto we got to go." We left the clones to play with Konohamaru and his crew. We had ran to mission building.

When we got inside we saw the rest of our team heck even Kakashi who was reading his book. Crash was their with his dog Twilight. "Hey Kakashi look. Looks like you not the one that is late this time." He didn't bother looking up from his book. Then he let out a little chuckle a bit or maybe that was his book that made him do that. He then closed it and put it away into his pouch. "Well now that everyone is here. I think we can bring in client." "Send in the client." The hokage yelled. I turn to see a paper door sliding open to see an old man who had glasses wearing a straw hat drinking from a bottle sake. "Hu? I thought I hired ninjas not bunch of snot nose brats and one's a runt." "I feel bad for the one he's calling a runt." Naruto said before he looked around… I had my hand up counting down from 3 2 1. "Hey why I oughta. I'm going to kill him!" Naruto yelled in a pissed off manor. Kakashi had stopped him by pulling him back. "Naruto we're here to protect the client not harm him."

" I am Tazuna, a bridge builder of ultimate renown. Until I am safely home in my own country and my latest bridge is done I expect all of you to protect me even if it cost you your lives! Also I expect to see you at the gate tomorrow morning. Because that's when I need to leave." And with that the man left. Leaving us with Crash who was looking rather pissed at Kakashi for reading that in public. So he took out a lighter a placed it under the book and lit. But instead of burning the book it just poofed it was a shadow clone. "Thousand years of death." I heard Kakashi's voice cry. But Just mere inches from Kakashi sticking his fingers up Crash's butt. Crash had caught Kakashi by the wrists before he pinched a nerve in Kakashi's arms making them go limp.

This caused the Hokage to start laughing. So while Crash and Kakashi stayed the rest of team 7 left.
