"Yo, Kakashi-sensei." His student said as he jumped through the window.
"Seems my student is picking up on my habits. What's next? Tardiness?"
"Really funny sensei." Naruto huffed. He walked towards his bed, picking a chair along the way to sit on.
Kakashi sighed and sat up with a grunt "Are you here to break me out of this damn place?"
"Sorry, but you know what will happen if I break you out of the hospital," he said followed by a soft "again."
"I get it. My other student would probably have a new punch-distance record then."
The blonde let out a small laugh and said: "Nah, it would be the old hag. Sakura-chan is now on a mission."
His sensei nodded understandingly "Oh yeah, I forgot it has been 10 days hasn't it."
Naruto let out a small smile "I already asked, she said that these kinds of mission normally take longer than planed."
"Cheer up, I don't like seeing you like that. Besides do you know how much longer I will be stuck here."
The door suddenly opened and a woman walked in. "Probably another week or two. It really took a toll that fight of yours."
Kakashi let a deep grunt out as he lied down again. "Can't you tweak it a little bit, after all you're the Hokage."
"Forget about it, I'm foremost a medic secondly the Hokage."
"Good one, Tsunade."
Said woman turned towards the speaker and a vein popped up on her forehead. "Don't laugh you idiot. I'm not that old that I couldn't hear you calling me an old hag."
Naruto sweat dropped as he watched a very annoyed woman walking towards him.
One second he was standing there the next second a new window was made directly on his place.
"What a waste, you didn't break her record." Kakshi laughed out.
Somewhere 380 meters away a beaten up figure crawled out of his small crater. "Just another 7 meters before…" and then he passed out.
Minutes passed before somebody walked by. "Who's that poke-animal? I mean."
He walked towards it following the path of destruction it left.
Once he reached the 'animal' he kneeled down and began to dig him up "It's an orange mole." As he sighed on more and more came visible "No, it's just a Naruto."
He stood up and walked away before he stopped and turned around "Wait a second, a Naruto?...Naruto!"
He ran back and used an earth justu to dig him up.
Once the injured man was lying on the ground. The man kneeled down and observed his wounds as he started to bandage him.
Minutes later the blonde left out a soft grunt as he opened his eyes again. He sat up and looked around when he spotted a sitting man "Captain Yamato? What happened?"
Yamato looked up from his siting position said: "I hoped you could tell me. I was just passing by when I found you passed out in a hole."
The memories came flooding back as he tried to remember "Thanks man, I think I shouldn't call the Hokage an old hag anymore, should I?"
The wood-user sweat dropped and stared in the direction towards the hospital. His eyebrow rose up as he saw a new window getting installed.
"Did she…?"
"Nope she didn't." Naruto reassured him "Just another seven meters before she drawed with her."
"I'm not sure what's normal for you guys but I don't think this is a healthy hobby of yours."
But his blessing wasn't heard as the man was already gone.
Somewhere on the other side of the village. "Troublesome."
" 'Troublesome' is that all that you've to say. He's literally getting used as death weight in that stupid contest of them." His blond teammate complained.
"Look at the bright side Ino. You aren't paired up with them. Besides it isn't only one of your teammates, they are also using Neji, Kiba and Shino for this one." Tenten looked at Hinata as her Byakugan was activated, focused on the road ahead of them.
"W-w-we need to get out of here. T-t-they are already at the park."
Sighing they all jumped into the nearest tree, waiting for the two idiots and their 'voluntary' sidekicks.
In the far horizon two green blurs arose from the horizon. Both carrying at least an hundred kilos on them.
They both stormed down the road. As they passed the tree, they both suddenly wore a face yelling 'horror'.
Simultaneously they let a loud yelp, when thy both tripped over an hidden tripwire. They both fell flat on their faces as they let go of their cargo.
"Are you guys alright?" Ino asked as she jumped out of the tree.
"That was utterly un-youthful letting us trip like that."
"I agree with Gai-sensei that was utterly unacceptable of you guys." Lee claimed.
"Argh, shut it Lee. You guys were carrying those guys on your back for at least a whole hour. They are beat." Tenten countered as she too jumped out of the tree.
"Are you guys alright?" Hinata asked, repeating the same question of her friend.
"I'm beat, like Tenten put it." Kiba grunted out.
"Same." Shino said.
"He Shika, why weren't you 'asked' to join us?" Choji asked.
"I was asked. But I was able to jump off Lee's back before they started their race." He said as he also jumped out of the tree.
"Lee how dare you, you played false during the race!" Gai accused his student.
Lee bursts in tears out as he kneeled down onto his knees. "I'm sorry Gai-sensei but I didn't know."
Ignoring the whole accuse-forgive-hug-and-tears scene Tenten was busy shaking Neji by his shoulder.
"Guys, we need to get him to the hospital! He won't wake up."
5 minutes later, after they leaped over the rooftops, they arrived at the hospital.
Another two minutes later, Neji was lying in his hospital room.
"Will he be alright doctor?" His female teammate asked.
"Yes, he will wake up I no time. It's just a light change of g-force that put him into this state. On the other side I recommend that the rest of you friends should also get a quick check-up."
The doctor looked at Choji, Kiba and Shino, before he gave a nasty glare toward the two green clothed figures.
Choji, Kiba and Shino followed the doctor as he leaded them towards the check-up room. While Gai and Lee were hugging each other out of desperation.
"Seems that the doctor got a nice laugh out of this." Tenten commented. "Oh, I almost forgot guys, I won't be leaving with you guys. I'm going to stay beside Neji for the night."
Getting an nod from everyone she walked into his room.
They were walking out of the hospital as they spotted a blonde idiot walking towards them.
"He guys!"
All of them stopped with their conversation as they spotted him. Ino was the first one of them to run towards him.
"You idiot, what the hell did you do? You look like a mummy." She put her hands on his back as she began to heal him.
Naruto laughed sheepishly as he said: "I called her an old hag."
"Again?" All of them exclaim at the same time.
Silence fell upon them as they watch their friend heal him.
A minute later she was done as suddenly a ANBU popped up out of nowhere. "You're summoned by the Hokage."
"Who?"
"You."
"But you in the singular or plural form?"
"I don't know," the masked man complained "normally her assistant does this but she's on a mission now, and to make it worse her student is also gone making it impossible for me to get that woman." With that he proofed away.
"That was weird." Naruto said.
"Let just go already." Shikamaru ended their conversation with that.
At the Hokage's tower a certain blonde was busy reading a document while a certain man was waiting in front of her.
"Don't you think you were kind of hard on him you literally said: "ANBU, get me them." And then you threw him out of the door."
Said woman stopped with reading and put the document down. "They need to learn to understand woman, without the help of my students."
"Yes, but only one certain woman." He murmured under his breath out.
"What did you say!" Tsunade said angrily. "Don't make the same fault as Naruto -thinking that my hearing is going back with me age-" she whispered the last part softly but dangerously out.
The mood was tense as Yamato mentally prayed the gods for a savior. The door suddenly slammed open as a loud boy ran through it "Old hag, why did you call us?!"
"Naruto! Don't you dare call me that again or I will make it sure that the next time I will break that record."
'Thank you whichever God made that happen' Yamato whispered through his head.
"Don't just barge in," Shikamaru complained as he walked through the door "it's way too troublesome to get a new window installed each time."
He was now standing besides Naruto while the rest of them walked in.
Tsunade suddenly focused her gaze towards a pair of figures standing on the far right of them.
"Gai, Lee," she spat out poisonously "don't think they didn't inform me about your actions. As punishment you two need to repair the area that was destroyed by my record attempt."
"Yes, madame." They both shouted out, before they left the room.
When they the left the room a soft laugh was heard from the 'angry' woman.
"I can't believe my luck; I got a new office chair, a new window and a new piece of grass. Seems I've gotten the last laugh." She said as she broke out into a laugh.
"So why did you call us again?" Yamsto interrupted her laugh.
"Oh, I forgot that you guys were still here."
Everyone sweat dropped in the chamber at her statement, while everyone thought 'and this is our Hokage. Which devil did she pay to get this job?'
"Let's get down to business. Yamato, you and Naruto, Shikamaru, Ino and Hinata will be going on an B-rank mission."
"Sorry to interrupt you, but is a 5-man team really necessary for this mission?" Yamato asked.
"Yes, yes it is. Yamato, you will be leading his mission. This will be a investigate and capture mission. You guys will be investigating an incident in a small village in the west."
"And what kind of incident?"
"Sharp as always Shikamaru. It's a murder."
The silence was tense as nobody dared to speak. Till the most timid of them spoke softly: "B-b-but wouldn't that be at least an A-rank mission?"
"Yes, normally it would but because the victim was only an old woman. My guess is, that this case is nothing more than a bandit accidentally murdering the inhabitant."
Getting an approving nod from the team she continued on: "Alright then, you guys will be leaving tomorrow morning."
Just couldn't wait to post chapter 1 :)
