A merchant came to Konoha asking if he can have protection heading to wave. "Shizune get me team 13 please." Tsunade said to Shizune. "Yes Tsunade-sama." She left to get team 13.
At the Uzumaki compound
Renji is meditating in the backyard. Naruto walked into the backyard. "Renji get up were going on a mission!" Renji opened his eye's and got up and heads inside the house and see's Akane. "Alright now let's go to the Hokage office!"
A few minutes later
Team 13 walked in the Hokage office. "You wanted to see us baa-chan." Tsunade throws paperweight at Naruto and he ducked. "Anyway you guys have a mission a C rank mission to escort a merchant to Kiri. Your sensei knows the rest of the mission and she'll be waiting for you at the village gate with the merchant. You leave right now." Renji shushined into red mist. Naruto shushined into a tornado of wind. Karin shushined into water. Akane shushined into lighting. They appeared in front of there sensei. "Looks like you guys made it now let's hit the road!" Yugao said. They walked out the village. Renji put his hands behind his head "Soo what are the details on the mission?" Naruto said. The merchant spoke to them "You'll be helping out the rebels in the bloodline purge..." Yugao looked at her students as they walk then at the merchant. "So this will be a A rank mission instead of C rank mission am I right?" "More like a S rank mission.."
A couple days later
They made it to Kiri and headed to the rebel base. Mei walked out with her guards and saw Konoha shinobi. "Good work Zabuza." As the merchant canceled the transformation jutsu relvealing Zabuza. Renji eye's widen. Zabuza looked at Renji "Rematch kid you and me." Then he walked off. Mei sighed "Come with me." As she goes into a tent. Renji sighed. As they go inside the tent. Yugao introduced herself and students. "My name is Yugao sensei of team 13. My students are Naruto Uzumaki, Karin Uzumaki, Renji Uzumaki, and Akane Inuzuka." Mei's eyes widen a bit at the last name Uzumaki. 'How there are 3 Uzumaki here in front of me!' She thought. Renji walks out the tent and he yawns. "Man I'm bored..." he turns his head towards the mizukage tower. 'Something isn't right here...' Naruto looks for Renji in the tent. "Where did Renji go guys?" Karin facepalms "Oh kami he's bored again." Mei was confused. "What's going on?" "Basically when Renji is bored he starts yawning until he find something fun to do." Karin explained to Mei. Renji walks around and looks around being lost in thought. Yugao looked at her students then at Mei "I think we should find him before he gets in trouble." Mei called her guards "Ao go find Renji." Ao looked confused "You want me to find a kid Mei-sama?" "Just find him before I kill you." Ao left to go find Renji. Renji was so lost in his thoughts he bump into a little kid. "I'm sorry." Renji apologized and helps the kid up "It's ok..." The little kid looks like he's been crying for a while. "Where's your mom or dad kid?" Renji asked. The kid sniffs a bit as a tear goes down his face. "They...they got eaten by a big monster and I have nowhere to go." As the kid sobs. 'A big monster huh...' Renji bends down and wipes the kids tear. "Come on how about I take you somewhere fun to cheer you up!" Renji takes the kid to the park. Ao comes back in the tent "I looked everywhere for this Renji and couldn't find him." Mei sighed in irritation. "It's best if we find him." Yugao said. "I'll go with you." Mei offered. They walk out the tent. A few minutes they found Renji at a park with a kid. Renji was sitting on a bench with the kid as he sings a song. " Lying in my bed I hear the clock tick,
And think of you
Caught up in circles
Confusion is nothing new
Flashback, warm nights
Almost left behind
Suitcases of memories,
Time after
Sometimes you picture me
I'm walking too far ahead
You're calling to me, I can't hear
What you've said
Then you say, go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you, I will be waiting
Time after time
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you, I will be waiting
Time after time
After my picture fades and darkness has
Turned to gray
Watching through windows
You're wondering if I'm okay
Secrets stolen from deep inside
The drum beats out of time
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you, I will be waiting
Time after time
You said go slow
I fall behind
The second hand unwinds
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting
Time after time
If you're lost you can look and you will find me
Time after time
If you fall I will catch you, I'll be waiting
Time after time" tears goes down Renji face as he picture his little sister in his mind. 'Nee-chan I'm so sorry that you and tou-san have to go.' Team 13 and Mei had a tear going down they're faces. The kid fell asleep on Renji lap listening to Renji sing.
