Ino's Pov
It has been several months since kakashi evaluated us we have all improved since then especially naruto and sasuke I even learned medical ninjutsu and even though our missions are usually D rank missions which I can tell is annoying both the boys. But today is another day and hopefully we will get a better mission. We walk into the hokage's office to receive our mission.
"Ok lets see what I have for you today I have some D rank missions for you all" I look over at naruto who is beginning to become angry at the hokage
"Let's see it seems like tora the cat has escaped again and" naruto then cuts him off
"Ok I've had enough of this hokage I don't mean any disrespect but when are you going to stop this bull and give us a real mission we are ready for something more than a damn D rank mission" the hokage stands up and releases some powerful Ki to silence naruto who releases some of his own to show the hokage he is serious the hokage just smiles and sits down
"Ok I hade to be sure you were serious I do have one C rank mission for you all" we all high-five naruto a man then walks in reaking of alcohol
"This is a bridge builder from wave country you are to protect him till he gets to wave am I clear" we nod the man then speaks
"So I ask for some ninja to escort me home and I get two young squirts and some hookers" next thing he knew he was pinned to the wall by naruto and sasuke
"What did you call them" they give him a look that said say the wrong thing and your dead
"Nothing I said nothing" they nod and let him go
"What's your name" he looks at me and smiles
"Names tazuna" we nod and look at the hokage
"OK your mission start immediately" we nod and walk out with tazuna and head for the gates kakashi then appears
"Hey sorry im late what's todays mission" we explain the mission and he nods and head for the gate when kakashi stops us
"Hey naruto you forgetting something" he takes a thinking pose and remembers something
"Oh yeah mom" he and kakashi then head out towards anko's house we follow and arrive ten minutes later naruto knocks on her door and waits for her to answer
"Who is it" he smiles
"Naruto and kakashi" she then answers the door and hugs both of them and waves to us we all go inside
"So what's up" naruto smiles
"We finally got a C rank mission" anko smiles and pulls kakashi to the side we quietly sneak over towards them to listen in
"You protect him you understand me you don't let him get hurt and please don't get killed kakashi" we hear him nod and peek around the corner
"You know me anko I'm hard to kill and so is naruto and the rest of the team they are ready for this" she nods he then leans in and gives her a passionate kiss on the lips everyone except naruto gasps which gets us caught they break there kiss and appear behind us
"Snooping huh" we slowly look behind us to see them sending glares at everyone except for naruto
"Wait you didn't know they were dating" we shake our heads anko just smiles
"OK now you know but if you tell anyone ill feed you to my snakes ok" naruto gives her a hug and kakashi kisses her again and we head off on our mission
3 days later
"Finally we made it to wave country" we all sigh in relief and continue walking when naruto stops us and looks at the ground ahead of us we look to see a giant puddle infront of us and look at him
"It hasn't rained in days something is up stay on your toes people" we nod and progress forward behind kakashi when two people jump out of the puddle and rip him in half making us all gasp except for naruto who throws a kunai at the men who block it we then snap out of our trance when naruto takes lead
"Ino and sakura stay close to tazuna sasuke and me will take on these guys" we nod and the boys charge at the enemy ninja doing hand signs
"Take this fire style fire ball jutsu" sasuke then shoots a fire ball at them they jump
"Fox fire barrage" naruto's jutsu hits them burning them horribly naruto then throws two kunai at them
"Sasuke now" he nods and they both do some hand signs and yell at the same time
"Kunai barrage" the two kunai become several hundred and hit the men in multiple places but non killing them we all slowly go towards them pick them up and set them against a tree naruto then looks at some bushes and yells
"Ok dad shows over you can come out" kakashi comes out of the bushes unharmed and walks over to us we sigh in relief that he was alive
"you all did well specially you and sasuke naruto plus good job keeping your head and taking lead" naruto nods and we kneels to examine the two enemy
"The demon brothers I presume wanted dead or alive in wave country" they nodded
"Why did you attack us" they gulp and answer
"We were payed by a man named gato he said if we killed the bridge builder he would pay us handsomely" we nod and naruto begins to pull out the kunai from there bodies
"Ino patch them up" I look at him as if he was crazy he gives me a look that says just do it so I begin to heal them after a couple minutes they stand up
"Why did you heal us" naruto smiles
"Because I felt the need to I feel that this gato guy will be a problem and I will need your help to take him down later on can we count on you" they nod and take off
"What was that all about naruto" he looks at sasuke
"Well this gato guy sounds like trouble and I have a feeling we might need some help taking him down also I have a feeling that there is something or someone worse than them ahead so right now we need all the help we can get" we all nod and continue forward down the path towards tazuna's village in wave
If only he knew how right he was even though that evil was nothing compared to the evil that the years would bring
