Namikaze Naoki || Uchiha Itachi

Chapter 13

"Sensei? Are there confrontations with enemies on a C-rank mission?" Naoki suddenly asked

"Don't worry, there won't be any ninja combat in a C-rank mission" kakashi assured

Tazuna was slightly getting more nervous..

"Then we won't come in contact with foreign ninja's?" Sakura who had been listening asked

"Of course not" kakashi laughed

Tazuna was feeling quilty.. and looked down. This was not overlooked by kakashi.

The group walked pass a puddle of water.. Sasuke and naruto had their eyes on it and kakashi did too.

Without notice people, two to be exact appeared out of the puddle, attacking the jounin. Kakashi got teared to shreds and his everything disappeared

Everyone was in shock to how fast everything happened, naoki was in a better state than anyone, she could sense kakashi somewhere and was relieved that he was still alive.

The enemy locked eyes with the group "one down" they said with a evil smirk

The enemy moved very fast to the next target aka the one most close by, which was Sakura.. they wipped there spiked chain of some sort aiming at sakura but sasuke was already on the move

He jumped, got a shuriken and kunai, he aimed them into the small hole the chain had, then the chain got spiked to the tree. While landing he got the chance to kick them and he did but it didn't do much. The enemy undid their chains so they could move freely. One went over the old man tazuna the other back to sakura

Naoki got into position and had a kunai ready, All she was thinking about was to protect the old man

The enemy got closer and had their mechanic claw right aimed at her, she dodged most of the attacks only getting grazed slightly and unnoticed, she pierced her kunai in his shoulder and kicked him hard and far away when he was close enough

The one on sakura's side was kicked by  naruto and sakura was down on her knees trembling her eyes widen, she was very scared.. but who could blame her, everything went so fast she couldn't even properly respond to it.

Just when the two enemies were planing to attack again, sensei came back

"Yo~" kakashi said with both enemies under his arms and smiling his famous eye smile

Kakashi you're alive! Sakura thought so happy she could cry

"You're late!" naoki smiled

Show off.. sasuke thought but with a smirk on his face

"Finally.." naruto said with also a smile

"Sorry, I didn't help right away I had to find something out first, But before that Sasuke, naoki, naruto you did a good job."

Naoki helped sakura up and Tazuna sighed in relief.. sakura was pretty hard on herself, she couldn't do anything.. she had to be protected..

"Now, Tazuna-san.." kakashi began

"W-what is it..?!" Tazuna said panicking just slightly

"I have something to talk to you about." Kakashi said tying the enemies on a three

"These are Chunin from the Village hidded in mist.. they're known for continuing to fight no matter what the sacrifice." Kakashi added

"How were you able to detect our movements?" The chunins said barely hearable through the gas masks

Kakashi explained how it didn't rain for days yet there was a puddle of water on the path

Naruto and sasuke inwardly cheered since they noticed it too.

"Knowing that, why'd you leave it to the kids to fight?" Tazuna questioned

Kakashi once again explained he had to know first who the target of the two was, was the target one of the shinobi or the bridge builder, since the mission said nothing about being targeted by ninjas.

Naoki tried hard to listen to her sensei but her senses where starting to blur.. she held onto the side of her neck where a scar was that wasn't supposed to be there..

When did this?! She thought

the conversation with tazuna was fixed and they decided to go further with the now B-rank mission maybe even A-rank.

now they were on a boat sailing the river

The wound stung here and there but she tried to stay the same and not show the pain.. which failed since one person already found out..

"Nao, are you okay? Did you get wounded?" Naruto asked softly so no one would hear

This guy.. I swear nothing gets pass him ever.. or did kurma tell him? Naoki thought with a chuckle

"I'm fine, just a bit tired" naoki lied praying he wouldn't notice

But even that failed, the poison took over and she passed out..

"Naoki?!" Naruto panicked getting everyone's attention

Kakashi frowned and looked after the girl to look what was wrong. Kakashi may not be a skilled medic ninja but he knew a one or two about poisons.

Kakashi sighed in relief, the poison wasn't deadly or very harmful. You could compare it to a sleeping drug.

"Don't worry, she's not in grave danger. She'll wake up soon and be all good again." Kakashi assured the rest

Naruto then placed the unconditional girl next to him and used his lap as the pillow.

Sasuke frowned.. he wished naoki would tell when things are wrong with her..

The sail continued and tazuna explained a bit more about his situation.
