A/N:
Once I entered the household I dumped Kakashi in the first room I found that looked remotely like a guest room. 'I'm probably gonna sleep in here so the boys can share a room. Sakura can probably sleep on the living-room couch if she's not comfortable rooming with the boys.' My thoughts were interrupted when I heard a bunch of yelling from the main room. I followed the sound mostly to satisfy my own curiosity than anything else. Entering the kitchen I saw Sakura bonk Naruto on the head. She was nagging the blonde in front of a little kid. I tilted my head to the side "What did Naruto do this time?" I asked which startled everyone in the room, I frowned silently judging the way they all reacted at the sound of my voice. 'This team might as well be civilians." Speaking of civilians, the kid in overalls and a fishing hat groaned in frustration. "Not another one! This ain't a hotel! Tell me who the heck you are so I can kick you out?!" The boy stomped his feet. I gave him a blank stare. "You're grandfather asked for our help so stop throwing a fit and it's common courtesy to give your name before asking for someone else's brat." I added that last bit with a little bit of sass not going to lie. I shook my head in disappointment and leaned my shoulder against the wall while the kid told me his name. "Okay Inari, We're all stuck breathing the same air for a while so suck it up buttercup." He huffed and ran over to the kitchen. "Kakashi is upstairs resting. Let's call it a day." Sasuke nodded along with Naruto while Sakura yawned, her overall anxiety from the mission finally catching up to her.
"Excuse me sir, are you also here to help my grandfather?" I nodded to the lady that exited the kitchen with a smile. "Thank you for your hospitality miss." She blushed lightly, dropping down to Inari and whispered something in his ear. He grumbled a bit before going down the hallway. "Here, let me show you to your rooms." I waved her to the children. "Arigato, but I think I'll just take the guest room that Kakashi is in if that's okay with you ma'am?" She gave the green light.

I walked into the scarecrow and my's temporary room and sat down on the edge of the bed. I looked out the window and sighed. "I really hope you wake up tomorrow Kakashi." I rolled him away from the middle of the bed and settled in for the night.

I had woken up to bright morning rays and chirping birds. I sat up and stretched.
"-would still be alive" I fell off the bed with a yelp when I heard that. I saw everyone jump but I kindly ignore them. "Hold up. What are we talking about?" I asked despite the embarrassment I felt. "Zubaka's mystery partner." Kakashi answers simply with a glare. "Oh yeah, I need to talk to you about that." He rolled his eyes. "Anyways, did you sleep well?" I gave him a blank stare "Surprisingly, yeah." I glanced at the clutches Sakura held in her hands. "How are you feeling?" I took the crutches from our pink hair'd teammate. "Better now, but we'll chat later. Right now is the time for training." Kakashi stood up and took the crutches from my hands. Sakura started nagging him when she registered what he said. "Kakashi-sensei?! You can't train in this condition!"
"Oh but I'm not the one that's going to train." He smiled reassuringly. "I'll just be observing you three." Kakashi explained. Kakashi started out the door, Naruto, Sakura, Sasuke, and me all lined up behind him, like a bunch of baby ducks following after their mother.
