“The person I am sealed inside?” Mochizuki thought for a moment. “Wow, congratulations Sasuke. You just asked the only question I’m not allowed to answer.” She laughed and smiled. “Sorry, You’ll just have to wait until she tells you herself…oh, and I’ll tell you more about this whole transformation deal later, alright?” She winked at the confused boy and proceeded to walk back into the woods. “By the way…you can call me Zuki.”
----------
Back in his human form, a still utterly confused Uchiha Sasuke collapsed on his bed at 6 AM. He thought about what Zuki had told him. He wanted to learn more about the said “Tantou” and why he was the “chosen one”
…why was he the only one on the planet that might possibly be able to control the beast?
And there was that one question that’s been bothering him since the talk…Who’s the girl Mochizuki’s sealed in…Does he know her? Could-
CRASH! CLANG!
“AW, KRIPES!”
Startled out of his reverie, Sasuke’s eyes shot open and he practically fell out of his bed.
“What the hell was that?” He ran down the steps to the kitchen. Only to find Kotori lying on the floor with pots and pans all over the place, including one on her head. The Uchiha abruptly stopped at the foot of the stairs, a finger pointed towards the Kunoichi. “Hn?!” Kotori jumped up as soon as she noticed him. Eventually lifting the one pot off her face so she could see him.
“I-I was just gonna make breakfast and…” The two stared at each other.
“……”
“…ya know what, don’t ask…” She finally replied, dusting herself off. Blinking, Sasuke walked over to her and helped her clean up.
“Geez Kotori…you scared the shit outta me.” He carefully placed two or three of the pans back in the cabinet. “W-what are you doing up this early anyways?!”
Kotori tilted her head. “What do ya mean?”
“It’s freaking six AM!”
“Well…I already told you, I was making breakfast!” She smiled.
“What the hell were you trying to make with these?!” The boy held up a deep pot which now had a huge dent in it.
“……”
“Well?”
“Bacon.”
“…”
“……”
“Oookkaayyyyy……?” Sasuke…didn’t want to know.
“……”
“Um…yeah…ok then. Er…I’m going back to sleep.” He slowly turned and trudged up the stairs. “Well that was awkward…”
----------
--5 minuets later--
BONK
“Ooooowwww!”
“What th- K-Kotori?! What the hell was that for?!”
“Get up.”
“What? Why…?” Sasuke was still startled by the completely random beating to the skull.
“Mission…we’ve gotta be at Tsunade’s office in ten minuets!”
The Uchiha immediately sat up. “W-with who?”
“Eh…I know Naruto and Shizu…but someone else, I don’t exactly know.”
“AARGH, why am I always with NARUTO!” The Uchiha slapped his hand to his forehead and slid it down his face, muttering something about ramen and retards.
“Sasuke!” Kotori hit him in the head again. “Naruto isn’t that bad!”
“B-but!-” He rubbed the back of his skull and glared at the Kunoichi. “-waitaminute…a five person team?! Holy geez…this mission must be Huge!” He jumped up and started digging into his drawers.
“Hell yeah it is! It’s so exiting! C’mon…Let’s go! Let’s go!” Kotori flew down the steps and grabbed her pack and her flute. Soon followed by Sasuke who was still putting his shirt on. The Kunoichi threw his daggers and sword at him and ran out the door; Sasuke narrowly dodged the…rather pointy…weapons.
“AGH! Dude! You could’ve killed me! Ever think of putting the caps on these things?!” He stared at the knives on the floor.
“HURRY UP!” Kotori shouted from down the street. Sasuke hastily gathered everything in his arms and quickly followed.
“Hn…Thanks for caring…” He sighed and rolled his eyes.
----------
“THERE you are!” Shizu exclaimed when the two frantic ninja threw open the door to the fifth hokage’s office, panting.
“Sasuke-Teme, Kotori-Chan!” Naruto jumped up and down, waving. Sasuke rolled his eyes.
“Geez…”
“S-sorry…” Kotori panted. “Somebody decided they were going to sleep late.” Sasuke gave her the Uchiha death glare just as a fifth ninja ran into the room.
“H-” Three of the four stared at the person, stunned.
“Hikari?!” Sasuke raised an eyebrow.
“W-wow, you’re lucky your first Konoha mission is so big!” Naruto exclaimed.
“Well…looks like everybody’s finally here.” Tsunade walked in the door after the girl, sorting through small a pile of papers in her arms. She didn’t even look up at the five of them, sitting heavily at her desk and sighing. “Ok…here’s the deal…The Raikage has been kidnapped...by who, we don’t know…” She continued sifting through the papers. “You five are to go to the hidden cloud village, and try to find any information you can get about the incident. Preferably from eye-witnesses. Besides that, do what you must to get the Raikage back, you have as long as it takes. Be sure to pack lightly, but enough to hold you for a couple weeks atleast. Try to keep exellent communication with eachother, especialy if you need to split up, so we know what’s happening with you. Sasuke-”
“Hai…”
“Once again, I’m appointing you as team leader. Make sure everyone gets back here safley and do your best to keep the injuries to a minimal. Got it?” Sasuke crossed his arms and nodded. “…Shizu…”
“Hai!”
“You’re the main navigator, alright? Take this and Don’t-Get-Lost.” Tsunade handed the kunoichi a map and shizu nodded. “…Hikari…”
“Hai.”
“Your lookout for the rear. Stay in the back of everyone and make sure no one ambushes you guys.”
“Alright…” She replied.
“And Kotori…”
“Hai?”
“Your lookout for the front. Same deal as Hikari.”
“Ok.”
“Everyone understand?” Four of them nodded. “Good-”
“Tsunade-Baa-Chan!”
“What?!”
“What about me?!” Naruto yelled.
“Naruto…You just do anything you want. Your still a valuble asset to the team, I just ran out of jobs, ok?” Naruto crossed his arms and huffed.
“Fine…” He muttered.
“Good! The you five are dismissed! Good luck!”
“C’mon guys.” Sasuke motioned them out and the five shinobi headed towards the village of the clouds, Kotori’s birthplace.
