A/N: we had a power/internet outage so late update lol
Kakashi's POV
"Rumor has it Lady Tsunade is returning."
"Kakashi, I didn't notice you come in."
"A bit concerning coming from the Jonin commander... something wrong Shikakau?"
"Just some extra work witht the upcoming Genin exams is all. You've heard right though, she responded to the Hokage's message about our mystery guy. I'm not sure why this is what finally got her back here, you'd think we'd need a whole battalion to drag her back here kicking and screaming to bring her home."
"Heh, guess Lord Hokage's drunken messages were real convincing."
"She was his student, if anyone knows how stressful something has to be to get him sending out urgent requests drunk it would be her and Master Jiraiya."
"I haven't heard knows about him, what's up with that?"
"He hasn't responded to Lord Hokage recently. Last I heard he was seen hanging around some outskirts village with a stranger."
"Has anyone been sent out to find him yet?"
"Hm? No, although at this point it might not be a bad idea..."
"Send me."
"Hmmm... why?"
"He was my Sensei's master, me and my summons will be able to track him down easily, and I need something to do."
"Ha, alright Kakashi. Report back here tomorrow at 8:00am for the official mission."
"Yes sir."
