Team 6 begins and the new mission

(Karoshi and team 6 have taken several missions completing each of them with ease. These missions were easy as they were d-ranked and thus were simple tasks. In a forest team 6 seems to be tailing something) Ujinomaru: (using an ear piece) do you guys have eyes on the target? Karoshi: haven't lost it yet. When do we spring the trap? Ujinomaru: on my signal. 1…..2…3! (All three jump out at a cat. A cat that resembles the cat naruto and his team went after so many years ago) Karoshi: target acquired. Mission accomplished. Ujinomaru: good. We can head back to the village then. Hanako: sensei, do we have any medical supplies? Ujinomaru: yes, why? Hanako: cause ikiru is getting scratched a lot (points to ikiru getting attacked by the cat) Ujinomaru; well hell be ok. Come on ikiru! Ikiru: ok, ow! Damn cat! Karoshi: let's go back already. Ikiru: fine.

(Team 6 is back at the hokage's mansion where naruto sits with sasuke at his side) naruto: well done team 6. Ikiru: hey hokage! How about a more challenging mission!? Naruto: (smiles nostalgically) you know I can't just do that. Your genin. And only d rank missions are to be given to you. Karoshi: for once ikiru is right. We may be genin but we are far stronger than most. By the time lord kazekage was our age he had taken a b-ranked mission. Why not allow us a c-rank at least. Naruto: (thinking: this kid makes too much sense) naruto: well….fine. Since you're so eager to get going I'll give you a mission that just came in today. It's a c-ranked mission. It's simple. You 4 will be guarding a convoy sent for the hidden cloud village. Ikiru: alriiight! This is more like it! Karoshi: calm it a little will ya? Ikiru: how about you cheer up a little emo-boy. Karoshi: is that a challenge fuck face!? (Hanako hits both of them over the head) hanako: shut up. You sound like five year olds. (Naruto and sasuke look at each other and laugh)

Ujinomaru: so tell us about this mission lord hokage. Naruto: well to put it simply the hidden leaf is sending a convoy of military supplies to deal with upcoming battles against the stone. We expect that only bandits will come after the convoy and only if that. Ujinomaru: the stone won't attack it? Naruto: certainly not. Stone has reached an uneasy alliance with the cloud and both are stockpiling weapons waiting for the other to attack. Ujinomaru: I see. Then this should go well. Naruto: yeah it should. If anything does happen I will send sasuke after you to help. Send word if something does happen. Ujinomaru: of course. Naruto: team 6 will leave for the mission in the morning. Be ready to fight off some bandits. The convoy will meet you at the leaf gate. Ikiru: this will be fun. (All 4 of them depart for their homes and the next morning they all appear at the gate waiting for the convoy)

Karoshi: where is the convoy? Ujinomaru: it'll be here shortly. Remember everyone, best behavior. And be ready to fight should the need arise. Ahhh. There they are. (A convoy of a couple carriages rides up the gate. There are large men pulling the carriage and a man riding it. The man has short spiked hair, brown collard, a green t-shirt and black jeans) man: are you the ninja we are supposed to meet? Ujinomaru: that's right. Man: a bunch of kids and a jonin? What kind of joke is this? Karoshi: no joke. We are going to guard you (thinking: provided I don't kill you first) to the hidden cloud village. Man: well I trust in the hokages judgment but kids? I'd better reach the cloud village in one piece. Karoshi: don't worry. I'm the worst you have to fear on this trip. Ujinomaru: shut up Karoshi. Don't worry mister. There manners aren't well but they can fight on equal terms with even me. Man: then you must suck. Ujinomaru: let's just get going. Man: my name is tazuki onua. I'm the man transporting these goods. We've got loads of weapons in the back so we may be attacked. That's where you come in. don't disappoint me. Karoshi: (mumbles low to himself) maybe I should dislocate you instead…

(The convoy is taking a land route to the cloud trying to avoid stone as much as possible. They have been traveling a couple of days now with nothing to report) Ujinomaru: it's been well so far. Seems like no one even knows were out here. Tazuki: indeed. Good thing cause an attack may kill us all. Karoshi: tch. Tazuki: you got something to say to me kid? Karoshi: as a matter of fact I do-(hanako grabs him and keeps him quiet) hanako: he will say nothing more. Tazuki: not bad for a lez. Hanako :( seems to have a burst of evil and then Karoshi and ikiru are holding her back) hanako: I'll kill you! Karoshi: shut up! (Hits her in the back of the head) hanako: you want to fight!? Karoshi: bring it! Ujinomaru: shut up brats. Were on a mission. Not a fight club! Karoshi: I know I know. !? (A shuriken comes out of nowhere at tazuki's head but is deflected by karoshi's kunai) Karoshi: who's there!? Voice: you don't need to know. Just hand over the man and the cargo and you'll be free to live. Karoshi: they want the cargo and the man? What's so special about him? Voice: you don't need to know now hand him over! Karoshi: up yours! Come out and fight me coward! Voice: as you wish (a masked man jumps from some bushes wielding a katana and wearing a long black cloak) man: die! (The katana is stopped just inches from tazuki's face as it becomes clear that Karoshi has his own sword out. A gaurdless blade put in the back of his belt like sasuke's) Karoshi: if you want a fight, I'll be your opponent. Man: very well. (The two begin sword fighting at an incredibly fast speed. Finally Karoshi breaks the man's guard and lands a direct hit at the man's throat. He falls to the ground gasping for air and dying shortly after)

Ujinomaru: why did you kill him? Karoshi: because this is no mere bandit. He's a ninja like us. But no headband. He's a rouge shinobi. Ujinomaru: from the look of him I'd say he was either from mist or stone. Karoshi: I'd place my bet on stone. He was an amateur swordsman. Mist are pretty good with blades. Ujinomaru: tazuki! We must talk. Why did a rouge ninja try to kill you just now? Tazuki: I don't know. How should I know a stone rouges motives? Ujinomaru: you know he's a stone villager? Tazuki: yes, I mean no. I heard what the kid said. Hanako: you're a bad liar mister you know that? Tazuki: fine I'll tell you. But you won't like it. Listen I craft weapons for leaf and allied villages. But I also sell weapons on the black market. Recently a group a rouge shinobi contacted me about my weapons. I told them I do not serve rouges and they would have to find weapons elsewhere. This angered them and they have been after my head for a while. I needed protection on this journey because of these rouges. Karoshi: they why hire a little genin platoon instead of jonin? Tazuki: although I sell many weapons the money goes to the village. I have little money. I can't afford anything higher than a c-ranked mission. Ujinomaru: well this makes things much more dangerous. But turning back is not an option. We have to get you there. We will provide protection. Tazuki: thank you so much! I am in your debt. Karoshi: as you have seen we are more than capable so you will be ok mister tazuki. Tazuki: thank you.

(It has been nearly a week since they set off and they are now half way there. There have been few attacks since the rouge ninja and what has attacked were only minor bandits) Karoshi: smooth sailing so far today. Ikiru: keep that up and you'll jinx us. Karoshi: superstitious moron. Ikiru: depressing emo-boy Ujinomaru: stop it now. Sometimes you two are so immature it's a wonder you two can even talk. Karoshi and ikiru: go to hell sensei. Ujinomaru: you little punks think you can beat me!? Karoshi: easily old man! Ujinomaru: I'm 26! And I act like it unlike you two idiots! (Hanako turns to tazuki while the other 3 fight in the background) hanako: even the sensei falls to fighting. So how long till we get there? Tazuki: another week and we'll be there. Provided we make it. Hanako: they pull through when they need to. Trust me; well make it there in one piece. Tazuki: thank you- hanako: duck! (All people duck down as a large two bladed sword with each blade sticking out of the opposite side on the handle goes spinning only inches above their heads and is caught by a mysterious man on a tree branch) Karoshi: who's there!? Ujinomaru: it can't be….that's the rouge ninja's leader, tantomaru momochi of the hidden mist!
