Naruto smiled at the papers presented to him.
"Damn, and here I thought only gangs had friends in high places."
Sasuke smirked triumphantly. Yeah, Sasuke knew some people. Naruto continued to look through the papers. These were papers that certified that they were detectives. They were fake of course, but other people wouldn't know that. Not even the cops.
"Yeah sure this is a good idea?"
"Oh like you've never lied to the cops before."
Naruto did have a point but...
"I don't have a target on my back."
Naruto waved him off. Now that he thought about it Sasuke was curious about something.
"Just what did you do to get you on their bad side." There was a pause. "Well?"
"Hm...how can I explain it to a spy who's working for the good guys without getting myself in trouble?"
"You don't trust me?"
"Well...you ARE a spy."
"And you're a gang member, how do I know you won't shoot me behind my back?"
"Oh Sasuke, you don't."
Sasuke shivered. Something about the way he said that last part creeped him out.
"You ready?"
"Yeah."
And with that the two of them walked out of the detective building.


"...what is that?" Naruto pointed at a vehicle.
"That my friend would be a car."
"A black one, of course."
Sasuke rolled his eyes. "Just get in."
"...what?"
"Get in."
"Ah no."
"No?" Sasuke smirked "Why not?"
"Unless it's a really sexy car I don't wanna be seen in it when I have a ducati."
"...seriously? You're going to ride your ducati to the police station?"
"Yep!!"
Sasuke sighed. Oh wow.
"Sasuke? What are you doing? Hey! Let go of me!!!"
Sasuke threw him in the back seat, locked him in, and got in the drivers side.
"Sasuke!! Get me out of here!!"

"Ah, you must be the detectives I've heard so much about."
A man came up to shake Sasuke's hand.
"I'm am Captain Sarutobi Asuma."
"He smells like smoke." Naruto whispered from behind. Sasuke elbowed him. "Ow..."
"So, what can I do for you boys?"
"We would like any files you have on Alex Montolo." Sasuke explained calmly.
"Of course. Shika!!"
A man at the far back of the room pushed his spinney chair towards the hall. "Yeah?"
"Get Alex Montolo's file, now."
The guy sighed. "Yes sir."
Then got up to get the files.
"In the mean time, wanna help out with something else?"
Both Sasuke and Naruto turned to look at each other. Not really, no.
"Sure. What's up?"
Asuma handed him a file.
"It's an art thief." He explained as Sasuke began flipping through the pages. "We know it's the same person due to the signature that's left at the crime scene." They nodded. Sasuke leaned in close to whisper in Naruto's ear.
"You know this guy?"
"Oh yes, cause me being a criminal means that I know every other criminal out there."
"You could."
"Ah gang member hello? Why would I know a art thief?"
Naruto did have a point.
"Here you go sir." Shika came up and gave Asuma a file.
"Thanks...now actually get back to work."
Shika shrugged and walked back to his desk.
"Here you go boys. Good luck."

"Wow, these guys really don't know shit." Naruto chuckled as he went through Alex's file. Sasuke ignored him and was looking through the art case, which of course caught Naruto's attention.
"Your not seriously considering trying that case out, are you?"
"Why not?"
"We're not detectives."
"Detectives don't have bad ass technology like us."
True. "Imagine that, a detective with a grappling hook. Ha! Detectives James Bond Style! Duh duh na na-"
"Well you quit with the James Bond music. It's ruining my concentration."
Naruto pouted in his seat.
"Party pooper."
Sasuke turned the page and noticed something.
"There's a theme."
"Huh?" Naruto walked over and looked over Sasuke's shoulder. "How so? They're not done by the same person or in the same style."
"But they were done in the same general place around the same time. They're Nazi paintings."
"Then why is he stealing paintings from here and not from Russia or where ever that took place?"
"Because when people came over here to escape, some of the art was brought over sea's-"
"And ended up over here in our art museums."
"Right."
Sasuke turned on his laptop and began searching paintings.
"Here we go. There's an art party downtown. I bet 20 bucks our thief is gonna be there."
He glanced up at Naruto who was smiling at him.
"What?"
"You look so cute when you figure out a case, like an exited little kid."
"...whatever." Sasuke crossed his arms and sulked in his seat. Naruto totally killed the mood. "Let's just go."
