Laughing and chattering loudly at something neither Kakashi nor Konohamaru were able to catch.īut that’s not what made Kakashi frown. There, standing by the entrance, were teams 11, 12 and 7. Konohamaru snapped to look at the source of the sound, cursing under his breath at what he was witnessing.Įntertained by the preteen’s behavior, Kakashi copied the young Shinobis stance and brought his gaze to the entrance door.only for his smile to drop instantly. Konohamaru’s eyes shifted, “Nothing.” He rubbed his arms in nervousness, “Just enjoying this lovely weather.”Īgain, Kakashi raised an eyebrow at the preteen’s terrible lie and quickly glance towards the restaurant where the older shinobis were standing by the entrance.īut before Konohamaru could reply, the two were interrupted by shrill laughter. The intimidating factor helps a lot sometimes.
Kakashi wanted to laugh at his display but he knew that the young Shinobi wouldn’t take him seriously. Konohamaru jumped at Kakashi’s deadpan voice, turning around so quickly that he almost lost his balance. It was a preteen poorly hiding behind the bushes watching the group of older Shinobis. The group themselves being loud and joyful wasn’t the sole reason that captured Kakashi’s attention. The night air was a bit chilly, indicating that Autumn was just around the corner and that villagers better be prepared for it seemed that Autumn and Winter this year will be a cold one.Īs he made his way through the village, nodding his head politely at colleagues he had recognized, his attention was stolen by a group of rowdy young shinobis.

“Very well,” She finally looked up from her paper and stared at Kakashi with a hard expression, “You’re dismissed until further notice.”Īnd with that, she turned back to her work and Kakashi walked out the door. It was obvious by the way her hands gripped tightly on her favorite writing utensil, just barely unclenching her hand in time before snapping it in half. Kakashi could tell that Tsunade-Sama was not pleased with the news. I couldn’t go after them due to the fact that they’ve hidden their tracks very well this time.” “Not much,” Kakashi shook his head, “The trails lead me to a deadend and witnesses have reported that Kabuto and ROOT may have moved between villages. “Any findings?” The Godaime asked in her best intimidating voice. Kakashi just grunted his reply, not sure what to say exactly. “You’re back.” Tsunade stated without looking up from the documents she was pretending to sign. After the fourth war, Kabuto had managed to escape and there were words that he was seeking an alliance with former, but active, ROOT members. He sounded paranoid, yes, but he was sent on an undercover mission in Kirigakure. He wasn’t really sure what it was but he could feel it, almost in his bones.Īs he made his way to the Hokage’s office, Kakashi’s senses were on high alert for a sudden ambush. It’s been six months since Kakashi has been in Konoha and he could instantly tell something has changed.
