Her Transformed Life (Naruto FanFic)

Chapter 23 - The Start of Something New

-Third Person POV-

"Sandaime-sama, why have you gathered all of us here?" Kurenai asked, and the people in the room looked at each other and nodded with agreement. "Iruka, Asuma, me, Gai, and even Kakashi.. What kind of mission do you have for all of us?"

Hiruzen smiled mysteriously and inhaled from his pipe, but he didn't say anything. The five ninjas looked at each other, and when Kurenai was about to ask again, the door flew open.

"You stupid geezer! Why did you lock my mark! I had to teleport to the Academy before walking here!" The woman walked in, and stopped talking when she looked around the room. "I forgot I left the stove on. I'm going back now."

"Like hell you are!" Kurenai jumped on her immediately, and she dodged and ran out.

"You can never catch the great Yuki! Never!" She shouted as she ran on the rooftop, and the people in the room sweat dropped as she disappeared. Hiruzen then coughed.

"I have locked all teleportation in the village. It's up to the five of you to cat.. *cough* find her."

"I'm taking the east side." Kakashi said eerily, and everyone gulped.

"Then I'm taking the west." Asuma said.

"North sounds pretty good for me." Kurenai then said quickly.

"That leaves me with the south! For youth!" Gai then shouted and ran out of the room, and everyone stared at his back wordlessly.

"I guess I'll go back to the Academy and guard Naruto and Chiaki instead.." Iruka said with an awkward laugh. Hiruzen then handed the four of them some flares silently.

"I wish you all the best of luck." He said, and the four ninjas nodded before exiting the room. After a while, a shadow appeared from behind the door.

"What a great welcome back gift you have prepared for me, Sandaime-sama." An anger mark appeared on her head as she cracked her knuckles, and Hiruzen laughed.

"Got you!" Asuma suddenly appeared and caught her in a tight hug, and she rolled her eyes.

"I'm a bunshin, sweetie. Let me give you a word of advice. She has around 20 bunshins wandering around the village at this moment, and I don't know if the numbers will increase. Best of luck catching her." She then started to fade away. "Oh, right, I almost forgot. The first person to catch her will receive a prize." She had completely disappeared, and black lines formed on Asuma's forehead.

"What kind of hide and seek is this.." He grumbled loudly as he exited the room. "I guess I'll see you later, gramps."

A few minutes later, a second figure emerged from the shadows, and patted her chest in relief. "What is your problem, Sandaime-sama?" She hissed, and he laughed heartily.

"I thought that they need to loosen up." His eyes then sparkled.

"At my expense." She squeezed out of her teeth, and sighed. "Mah, not that they can catch me anyway. Teleportation is not the only trick I have up my sleeve, and I'm not telling you the rest lest you seal them up again." She then glared at Hiruzen angrily.

"Or maybe I should sneak out of the village now." Hiruzen then smiled mischievously.

"No one is allowed to leave Konoha today." An anger mark appeared on Yuki's head again.

"Damn you, jiji.. I hate you.." She grumbled for the last time before disappearing, and Hiruzen's smile grew bigger.

A few hours later, the gang walked in the Hokage's Office again, but this time, with a tied up, pissed off Yuki. "Why the hell do you know where I was.." She grumbled as she glared at Kakashi, and he laughed.
