'I can't believe Sasuke and Satoru had to carry me all the way here... I definitely overused my Sharingan.' Kakashi thought as he laid in a bed set up by Tazuna's daughter in their home.
"You're waking up, huh?" Tazuna's daughter said, walking up to a laying down Kakashi. "Are you alright?"
"Not really, It'll be a week before I can move normally..." The Hatake man spoke, sitting up with a grunt.
"See? It's better if you don't move. So, lay back down."
"Right..."
As Kakashi laid back down, the rest of Team 7, plus Tazuna, walked into the room. Sakura sat down beside him, while Sasuke, Satoru, and Naruto sat a little further away. Tazuna stood by the door.
"Hey! Kakash-Sensei is finally awake!" Naruto exclaimed with a smile on his face.
"Well no duh Naruto. We all have eyes." Satoru quipped, making the Uzumaki glare at him.
"You know Sensei, your Sharingan is cool and all, but if jt puts such a strain on your body... should you really be using it so much?" Sakura questioned.
"I mean, he did take down a powerful Ninja assassin, so we should be safe for a while." Tazuna said from the back of the room.
Sakura put a hand on her chin in thought. "Anyways, that kid with the mask... What was he?"
"He's an Anbu Black Ops member from the Hidden Mist Village." Kakashi explained. "Those masks are only worn by the most elite Shinobi."
"What exactly do they do?"
"The Anbu Black Ops, frequently called the 'inferno squad,' destroy all traces of a Rouge Ninja's corpse. A Ninja's body contains many secrets. Ninjutsu, Chakra, special medicines used on their body, these are the secrets of their village. If another Ninja were to get ahold of these secrets, their people could be in grave danger. This is why Tracker Ninja are so important. If a Shinobi becomes rouge and betrays their village, it's their job to hunt them down and erase their very existence."
"Hey, Sensei! Are you okay?" Naruto questioned, looking at the uneasy look on Kakashi's face.
"Hm, What? Oh... yeah, to continue what I was saying, Tracker Ninja deal with bodies immediately so that there is no room for error."
