The Shinobi Way

The will of fire burns out

___Hidden Leaf Village___

*Hokages Office*

  Pile after pile of paperwork littered the floor and desk making it appear to be covered in snow.

      Buried under all of the discarded files laid the Fifth Hokage. Exhaustion from another day carrying the weight of the village (and huge ass boobs) proved to be too much for the knocked out woman.Bear like snores echoed down the halls and could be heard throughout the building.

 She was dead to the world and unaware that at the moment secrets were being leaked that could put the village in peril.

Third P.O.V.

 A young boy franticly ran through the forest weaving in and out of the trees desperately trying to shake off his prosers. 

 He stopped briefly taking in his surroundings and drawing in ragged breaths. 

"It can't be too far now..." He silently hoped.

  Taking a deep breath he continued on toward the land of fire.Hopping from tree branch to tree branch he became weary.

       Losing his footing for a split second the boy tumbled to the ground face planting roughly into the dirt. 

"c crap..." 

  He gasped in a panic throwing himself behind the nearest fallen trunk.The sound of rustling leaves made him freeze.He clamped a hand over his mouth preventing noise from escaping. 

"Where did that little bastard go?!?!" Risking a peek he leaned to the side of the log.

 Two masked men stood nearly ten feet from him.One of the men huffed in anger and frustration.Though he couldn't see the guys face his posture said it all. 

 "I don't know but we can't let him get away. He could be a spy...If we don't get back soon Kazekage-sama will have our asses." Nodding in agreeance the two Suna anbus headed forward.

 Sighing in relief, the child swiveled around checking just to be sure they left. 

"Damn...I should have gotten him to pay more ...32903 yen isn't enough for this."

 An anime sweat drop formed over his head.After dusting himself off the boy took off toward the village hidden in the leaves.

Naruto P.O.V.

 I vigorously tapped my foot in tune with the seconds on the clock.Growing impatient of waiting in Ichiraku's I glanced up at the wall for the hundredth time.

Tick ..

        tick..

                     tick ...tick

Its already 4:00! He should be here by now! 

Sighing loudly I laid my head on the counter. 

"Something the matter Naruto?" I jumped slightly at the sudden question.Putting on a fake smile I looked up at Teuchi. 

"Nah old man...Just waiting on a friend." 

"What...no ramen?" I shook my head.

For once...ramen was the last thing on my mind.He stared at me with disbelief and his eyes bugged in slight shock.I laughed at his expression and stood from my spot.
