A mission outside of the Hidden Leaf

                                    

                                          
"Sasuke here at point B!"
                          
"Sakura here at point C!"
                          
"Kiwayo here at point D!"
                          
"Naruto. I'm at point A, believe it!"
                          
"Naruto, you're slow. Okay squad seven... The target has moved follow it!" We all moved following the target. Still hidden. "Okay, what's your distance from the target?"
                          
"Five meters I can go at any time." Naruto whispered.
                          
"Same here." I whispered.
                          
"Me too." Sakura quietly spoke
                          
"I'm ready." Sasuke pointed out.
                          
"Okay... Do it!" Kakashi encouraged. At that moment we all jumped towards the cat. Naruto was the one to grab the cat.
                          
"Target confirmed he has the ribbon on his ear!" I told Kakashi-sensei through the microphone. I looked over at Naruto being beaten up by the cat. I felt bad for Naruto.
                          
"Mission capture lost pet "Tora" complete!" Kakashi told us through the earphones.
                          
"Isn't there a mission with a greater sense of urgency to it?!" I held my ear after Naruto's outburst. I didn't feel so sorry the cat was pummeling him now.
                          
When we returned the cat I saw her own squishing the cat. Well, she was the feudal lords wife so not like I could say cat abuse.
                          
"Well, squad sevens next mission..." He started listing off some options.
                          
"NO! No, thank you! I want a more exciting mission! Give us something else!" I understand where Naruto is coming from but, as for me personally I was content with the work I was doing now. The people we work for sometimes give us free food... Don't judge me. For the first time ever I had a rice ball because of the free food we got. Although it would be nice to stretch my legs and travel.
                          
"You fool! You are still bottom rookies at the bottom everyone moves up the ladder by gaining experience from simple missions!" Iruka-sensei exploded.
                          
"But it's been nothing but blah missions so far!" Naruto argued. Kakashi hit Naruto on the head.
                          
"Knock it off." Kakashi warned. The hokage started explaining the mission ranks. I found it very interesting. I now knew how I was going to get paid.
                          
"Hm?!" The hokage questioned. I noticed Naruto then reciting something.
                          
"Yesterday's lunch was pork-bone broth noodles, so today will be miso-broth."
                          
"Listen!" The hokage yelled clearly aggravated.
                          
"Maaaan, you always lecture me old man!" Naruto complained. "But, i'm not the little prankster that you think I am!" He huffed and turned away. Lord Hokage-chan and Iruka-sensei gave a slight laugh to that.
                          
"Okay! Fine, if you insist i'll have you do a c-rank mission! You'll be bodyguards for someone."
                          
"Who? Who? A feudal lord? A princess?" Naruto asked excited. I know I wouldn't mind body guarding a princess.
                          
"Don't get so hasty I'll introduce you now! Could you please come in..." We all turned to the door excited for who we would bodyguard. I doubt it was a princess but one couldn't help but hope.
                          
The door opened and an old man came in.
                          
"What's this it's just a bunch of squirts!" He took a long drink from his sake body. He had been drinking and still was drinking. My spirits sunk I had hoped it was a princess. Well, this was bound to be an interesting mission."Particularly the small one with the idiot face. Are you really a ninja?" We all lined up to see who was the shortest. I was the same height as Sakura. So Naruto was the shortest one.
