"Naruto? Who's this?"
Iruka asked as he notice the two boys heading his way.
"Oh right how rude of me. Mom this is Sasuke, Sasuke my mother."
Sasuke smiled, a fake cheezy smile. "Charmed." And then kissed Irukas hand.
'Great, now there's two of them' Iruka thought to himself as he rolled his eyes.
"So...you said you found something on the killer already?"
"Yeah...but he's dead."
That got their attention. They followed Iruka to a sliver car that was crashed into a phone booth.
"His name is Kabuto."
"Shit." Naruto mumbled.
"What? You know him?"
"Not on a personal basis no...but he's Orochimaru's main man."
"Shit."
Remember that organization I mention earlier? The Sound one? Yeah, Orochimaru was the man in charge.
"How long ago was this?"
" 'bout an hour."
"When you guys show up?"
"20 minutes after the crash. But one of our guys was chasing him and was here the whole time."
Naruto began to ponder. Something wasn't right. Sound's men should have been here already, even Sasuke found that odd.
"So...this Kabuto guy killed Alex?"
Iruka shrugged.
"Our guys spotted someone getting out on the passenger side. We couldn't get his face. Which means-"
"Kabuto was just the driver and our murder escaped." Naruto slammed his fist on the car. He was pissed, he liked Alex, they went way back, and for him to go out like this...
Sasuke glanced over at Naruto. It wasn't hard to see how much Naruto must of cared for the guy. Sasuke had seen Montolo but never really talked to the man, mainly because Sasuke knew not to make friends at work. They could die at any time. But Naruto wasn't a spy, so this was different.
"Hey, you alright?"
Naruto was silent for a bit. "...yeah."
"Lair."
"Well what do yeah expect? Alex...Alex was one of us. I know I was laughing about it earlier but..."
"That was to hide the pain."
They stood there in silence. Iruka pulled out his phone.
"It's me. I need you to come here and pick something up...yeah, thanks."
Sasuke raised a brow at this.
"You have your guys pick this up? Why not the cops?"
" 'Cause we don't want this to some how lead back to us. Unlike you, we don't have a good reputation. If one whiff of us gets to the police we're screwed."
Sasuke nodded. Oh yeah, crooks.
Iruka looked at Sasuke skeptically. At first he assumed he was one of Naruto's other friends he never heard of, but if he really was a friend Naruto would of told him he was a member of a gang and wouldn't of asked such a stupid question.
"Naruto can I have a word with you?" he then glared at Naruto "ALONE."
Despite it being a question, Naruto didn't get a chance to answer since Iruka had immediately pulled him by the collar and began dragging him a ways from Sasuke.
"Naruto you can't just be bringing in random strangers to operations like this!"
"Relax Iruka, he's not just some guy."
"Oh?"
"He's a spy."
"A SPY!?!?"
"A Sharingan spy no less. Neat huh?"
"Neat?! NEAT!?!?" It was far from neat, in fact, it was anything else BUT neat. "Are you fucking nuts?! Why would you bring him here?!"
Naruto shrugged "Thought it'd be fun."
"FUN?!?!"
"He works for the people who currently have Alex's stolen goods."
Even though he was about to blow a gasket, Iruka did have to ponder about that. Even with that being the case, could they really trust this guy? I mean... the last spy he meet sure as hell wasn't trust worthy.
While Naruto and Iruka were talking Sasuke's phone rang. He walked a little ways for distance before answering it.
"I'm surprised to not see you back already. What's up?"
"I found more info on our case and Itachi."
"Oh? Are they connected?"
"I'm not sure."
"What you got on Montolo?"
"Our killer escaped but the driver crashed the car and is here dead. It's Kabuto."
"....Shit. I hadn't realized it was that huge."
"You run the data already then?"
"Yeah, it's mainly blue prints of their hide out and...someone else's."
"Who's?"
"I don't know, but there for two different buildings."
This really wasn't making sense. What was the big deal about blue prints?
"The cops there yet?"
"Nope, and they won't be."
"...what?"
"They're taking the body incase the cops somehow use that to link it back to them."
"...Sasuke? Are you...working with a gang?"
Sasuke didn't answer.
"God damn it Sasuke."
"Couldn't be helped."
"Why? 'Cause they have something on Itachi? Just what did they say anyways?"
"Itachi's after drugs...Kyuubi drugs."
There was a silence.
"Kakashi?"
"That's impossible. They were all disposed of long time ago. I helped even, so I would know."
Sasuke then turned to glance back at Naruto. How would he know about drugs that his group kept secret and disposed of?
"Sasuke this guy sounds too dangerous. Stay away from him, are we clear?"
Sasuke nodded and hanged up. Naruto...dangerous? Ch, yeah right.
"That daddy on the line?!"
Naruto yelled at him. Sasuke rolled his eyes.
"Yeah!" He answered as headed towards them. "He says that Alex was smuggling blue prints."
"Blue prints?"
Iruka commented out loud. That didn't make any sense.
"To a bank or something with high value?" Naruto questioned.
"From the sounds of it, no." Sasuke answered as he stood next to Naruto.
"In other words...you have no idea what there too huh?"
"Not us...but maybe you guys would."
"Us?"
"You seem to know a lot about Sound. So it's a possibility..."
"Are you seriously advising that we work together?" Iruka asked annoyed "A underground gang working with undercover spies?"
"Well, yeah."
"No."
"Iruka!" Naruto began to whine, "We need those blue prints!"
"We could always, no offence Sasuke, steal them. It wouldn't be all that hard."
Sasuke twitched. Oh no this guy didn't just dis his organization.
"Yeah but we wouldn't have to if they provided it to us for free!"
"I don't care. We are not working with spies."
---
"God damn it!!" Naruto yelled as he stormed into his little detective house. "Why is he so stubborn!?!"
Sasuke, following not too far behind him, caught Naruto's helmet when it flew out of Naruto's hand when he was waving it around.
"Careful."
" 'Careful' " Naruto mocked "Ch, whatever." Sasuke sighed. God Naruto was such a kid. "...what are you doing here anyways?"
"What do you mean?"
"You got your info and Iruka said no working with spies. You don't need to be here."
"Hm that's what you think." Sasuke smirked as he pulled up a chair.
"Oh really? Enlighten me."
"Weren't you the one who said we were partner detectives?"
Naruto smirked.
"You're not implying-?"
"We're not spies or involved in a gang. We're newbie detectives."
Naruto burst out laughing. He knew this guy was gonna be fun.
