[Secrets! part-1]
"What are we going to do with these two Kurenai-sensei?"
Kurenai-sensei seemed hesitant and looked towards Kakashi who…*perverted giggle*
'Is that Icha Icha?'
*blink*
Kurenai-Sensei seemed angry and frustrated with Kakashi-san's attitude and she started to go through some hand seals…That was the queue as Kakashi-san came out of his daydreams and hurriedly put his book away upon seeing Kurenai-sensei holding a tiger seal…
'...Why does every adult keep one of them...Dad got hammered the other day for the same book...'
"*Ahem, Ahem* Well, according to the standard procedure we need to behead the rogue-nin, but that leaves us with the other shinobi and I don't seem to have seen him listed as rogue-nin..."
"He has Ice-release..."
That got the attention of both Kurenai and Kakashi as they suddenly looked alert and were examining Haku more closely…
"Are his wounds deep?" Kakashi-san asked as he went through some hand seals…
"No, I healed any mortal wounds, these are just light surface scars and do not present any danger..."
'Summoning Jutsu: Pakkun'
'...huh wasn't that dog just with us...'
"Yo Kakashi?"
'Yeah, nothing weird than a dog sitting on his hind legs and giving a lazy salute...'
Kakashi sensei was busy writing a message and firing instructions to Pakkun, "I need you to get this message to Hokage-sama as soon as possible..."
He strolled towards Tazuna-san and started to explain that we could not continue the mission due to the recent change in circumstances… "I am sorry Tazuna-san but the mission to wave will have to wait...we will go back to the fire country region where we will leave you at the outpost, a different team will come and escort you to the land of waves."
"But we need to hurry, my grandson and daughter are alone and Gato can do anything to them any moment...Please...I beg you, can't you guys help me finish this mission, you guys are strong...you can handle Gato and I can build that bridge quickly..."
As Tazuna pleaded his case and used his grandson and daughter as an excuse to persuade it Naruto spoke up, "Kakashi-Sensei I promised to help him and I do not go back on my words, that's my Ninja way..."
'...wtf, you are a ninja dude...whatever I'm ignoring anything he's saying...'
"Yeah, Kakashi-sensei we can continue this mission..."
'Huh! Sasuke has a soft heart underneath...'
"If we can fight some more shinobi that will be good..."
'...nevermind.'
After that Sakura chimed in write on queue to try and persuade them to finish the mission and Kakashi-san gestured them to shut up…
"Kurenai, can you handle the transfer of the fake hunter nin back home..."
"Yes, I think my team can handle that..."
Kakashi-san nodded and looked towards the body of Zabuza…
'No way in hell can we carry that big old man back home...'
As he was contemplating on what to do with a member of the 7 Ninja swordsmen of the Mist, I notice Hinata was giving me a look again and again…
'Okay, what's that about...Naruto is here go look at him...'
As I was creeped out by Hinata's stare and maybe Shino too as he was looking in my general direction...Kakashi-san finally decided to speak up, "Alright we still need to travel to the outpost from where team 8 and the ANBU team that I called will continue to take the bodies back towards the village, and team 7 will continue its original mission of escorting Tazuna-san till he completes his bridge...any questions?"
---------------------------X0X----------------------------
'Yeah didn't think of this did you...'
We are currently on the shore of the land of waves, Kakashi-san was carrying the body of Zabuza and I was carrying Haku on my back.
'The problem in the plan was that we forgot that we need a boat to complete this journey...'
"Okay...Tazuna-san can you arrange for some boats..." Kakashi-san asked Tazuna with an eye smile as he completely ignored the deadpanned look of everyone else present with there...
"err..er...I do have a friend close by who could lend me his boat but I don't think he would take us across..."
So we traveled to this 'friend' of his who turned out to be another old fisherman, drunk in the middle of the day sleeping in his bed… As Tazuna-san suggested, "Why don't we wait till he wakes up...err...our relation has been a little sore because of a little accident..."
"Kakashi-san, both of them have max 4 hours before I need to take them out of their half-dead state if you don't want it to be permanent..." My interruption made his move towards the back of the house where 5 boats were tied to a small wooden bridge/harbor.
He untied one boat and placed Zabuza into it and indicated me to place Haku in the other one. Hinata and Shino got into the boat with me as Kurenai-Sensei was stranded with team 7…
'Okay, somethings up...Shino and Hinata taking the initiative to be alone with me can never lead to something good...'
Finally, it ended with Kurenai-Sensei going with Sasuke and Sakura as Naruto crept closer to Zabuza and curiously examined his injuries…
'So who will speak up first, Hinata or Shino...my bets on Hinata...'
"Ano...Tobi-san?" Hinata seemed to be fidgeting in her place as she finally started talking while Shino just stood up with a straight face and an Intense stare…
"Yes, Hinata-san" 'I know what's coming but please don't be it...don't be it...'
"What is that armor you are wearing beneath your clothes..."
'*Sigh* called it'
"It's just a thin flexible metal chain-mail...I thought we talked about it the second day you were spying on me with your byakugan..."
My stare causes her to blush a bit but she still pushed on and continued, "We are your teammates Tobi-san, please you can trust us, I was watching your fight with my Byakugan and the 'chain-mail' changed shape and stabbed the rogue hunter-nin through the waist before going back to how it was before..."
'Yup, they got me...I need to stop using the Iron dust if I want to keep this facade longer...'
Looking up at their determined faces with Hinata trying to convey their trust in me and even Shino looked a little comforting…
'Yup, time to lie my ass off....'
