Cat Attack

An: I do not own Naruto or fairy tail and the first person to comment will be dedicated

A few days have passed as was finally getting the hang of using shadow clones for training purposes. This was just what he needed. Despite only being able to use four clones for the basic exercises and lower level Jutsu, and no more than two for the higher level Jutsu and Chidori, the results were just what he had been looking for. He found the most use for training with them when he went to practice his weapon usage or taijutsu, as the memories of how he moved and the slight adjustments me made came to him. He also knew that when it came time to work on a new Jutsu, that they would shorten the time that he would be required to take to learn the Jutsu.

Freed was wandering through town, looking for his team mates The other day, he had asked about the details about obtaining and summoning contract and that he was going to try to obtain the Cat Summoning Contract. This contract was something that was passed throughout the Uchiha clan, but only to those who completed a certain task. For Freed, his task was to collect the paw prints of numerous cats. Itachi had started him on this journey, but Freed stopped collecting the paw prints with only two left to go when Itachi betrayed the village and murdered the entire clan. Until recently, the Cat contract was something Freed really wanted as it reminded him too much of Itachi. However, with the recent display of power that Laxus had showed with his own contract, Freed's mind had changed. Now he wanted the contract. The two prints he had left to collect after their battle with the Shukaku were Matatabi the Two tails, and Nekomata, the boss of the ninja cat underworld.

To him, it was almost like fate was shining down on him to complete the task and get the contract. In fact, he had met Yugito, the jinchuriki of the Two tails, during the exams and after a quick, yet intense, sparing match after the whole ordeal with the finals was concluded, she and Matatabi agreed to give Freed the Two tails paw print. As of now, he only had to collect the paw print of the Cat Boss, Nekomata.

After some convincing by Freed that he was ready for a summoning contract, Kakashi allowed him to go; however, since this was outside the village, it would have to be on either a mission or clan business and he would have to take his team with him.

Thankfully, he had to meet with Nekobaa, an old woman who lived in an abandoned city in the south of the Land of Fire. Nekobaa was an old cat lady and friend of the Uchiha clan. She was also the primary supplier of ninja tools to the Uchiha, giving Freed his excuse to pursue the contract. With her lived Denka and Hina, two ninja cats. These two were the ones who initially issued the task to Freed and it was they that kept the Cat Summoning Contract.

After his long hiatus from collecting paw prints, Freed was finally determined to complete the collection and earn the contract.

Evergreen was the one he was looking for as she was the harder of the two to find. Laxus, on the other hand, would most likely be one of two places: the Ramen shop or the training grounds.

After about 1hr 45 minutes, a frustrated Freed finally found Evergreen. She was hanging around In Mira's shop, spreading gossip when she should have been training. Now for Laxus and Bickslow.

Thankfully for Freed, Laxus was at the training grounds with Bickslow; at least someone was doing something useful.

"Wind Style: Gale Palm!" he shouted, practicing his new Jutsu. It was at this time that Freed and Evergreen came on scene. Freed saw the Jutsu coming and was able to duck behind a tree to avoid the gust of wind. Evergreen on the other hand, didn't quite have the reflexes and was knocked flat on her back. As a result, she began trying to beat Laxus as she always did when he did something stupid, but was stopped by Freed and Bickslow who was practicing making water out of air. In Laxus's defense, they had walked in on him unexpectantly. Evergreen wasn't willing to argue with Them.

After a quick explanation as to why they were going, the three reported to the Hokage tower. They informed the Hokage of their intentions, to retrieve the necessary supplies to restock the Uchiha supply and to obtain the Cat Contract. If it hadn't been for a long day of paper work, Tsunade would have questioned Freed's decision to face Nekomata. The paper work was already killing her as the stuff that she had yet to catch up on from the previous weeks before she came back to the village just kept piling up. She was in no mood for arguing with a hot-headed Uchiha...in fact, the only things she needed right now was a drink and a long nap.
