The Child Of The Desert (A Naruto Fanfic)

Tazuna The Asshole

Sabaku POV

I sat in a tree, my headphones were on the ground because I didn't need them, but I did need the microphone attached to them. "Ok, name your position." Duck ass quickly responded, "Sasuke at point A." Then another voice was heard, "Sakura at point B." And then there was a long pause so I used my sand to grab the microphone and sighed, "Sabaku at point D..." I said solemnly.  Then there was a loud yell coming from the headphones, "Naruto at point C!!!" I winced, "Naruto don't scream into the ear piece." Kakashi said sternly.

"Naruto the target is coming your way!" Sakura said basically screaming. "I got it! Yup it has a pink bow! I got tora!" I threw my headphones on the ground and headed over to Naruto's area. When I got there I saw the rest of team seven, "Itai!!" Naruto yelled in pain as Tora starched his face, I walked up to him and slapped him.  Then I took Tora and sat down on the ground, she struggled in my arms at first and then stretched my arms, I growled at her in response. She lowered her head in retreat causing my ears to perk up and my tail to move back and fourth saying, 'I am the alpha, obey me' It was normal animal behavior. When she saw this she went behind me and  nudged my tail and purred.

Kakashi POV

I watched as Tora purred and nudged Sabaku, I looked at Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke, they had confusion written all over there face. Then Naruto shuffled over to me, "What's going on...?" He whispered confused, "I guess Tora likes Sabaku because she has animal ears and a tail, or something." I responded bluntly catching all of my team's attention. Sabaku pushed the cat away and growled, "Don't think because I have a tail means I like animals, I hate them." She said sternly.  "Don't be mean!" Naruto yelled as Tora's owner came over to us, "My dear Tora!" She said as she squeezed the cat, she then ruffled the cat's head bending it's ears back and fourth. I looked at Sabaku to see her ears pulled back with a expression of uncomfort on her face.

Sasuke POV

The cat was being squeezed to death, and being shooken and having it's ears bent the wrong way. I looked at Sabaku to see that she looked completely normal as if she had no animal like features. She backed away from Tora's owner and sat down on the nearest bench as if she was dizzy and lost her balence. She leaned against the wall and sighed, her breathing was a bit shaky.

Kakashi looked at her and then walked over to the Hokage's desk to collect some money. "Thank you Kakashi." He nodded and was about to say something until we all heard a cracking noise. I looked at Sabaku to see her wrist was bent the wrong way, and she had a normal look on her face. I grabbed her wrist and looked at it, 'What did she do?' I thought to myself only to be pushed away from Sabaku by Kakashi.

Kakashi POV

I grabbed Sabaku's wrist and looked at it, "What happened?" I asked her with a hint of concern only to have her pull her hand out of my hand and growled. "I WANT A BETTER MISSION!!" We all looked at Naruto raising his fist, "Hey! Watch your tone!" Iruka yelled sternly. "NO WAY! IM WAY BETTER THAN THIS! I DESERVE A BETTER MISSION!" He yelled loudly. "Fine then." The Hokage said bluntly, "If you think you can handle it I'll give your team a C rank mission. You'll be escorting someone-" I cleared my throat, "I don't mean to interrupt but Sabaku has broken her wrist so that won't be happening. Naruto groaned in disappointment, only to have Sabaku stand up an scoff. "I'm not going to be holding anyone back." She said bluntly as she took her other hand and twisted her broken wrist in different directions, causing multiple popping noises. This caused most of the people including Iruka to gag as the popping and twisting continued, until finally there was one loud snap and Sabaku let go of her wrist and began to move it as if nothing happened.

Everyone stared at her, "Well. Who are we guarding?" She asked bluntly. The Hokage cleared his throat, "Bring him in." Then an old-ish man came in with a bottle of Sake in hand.

Sabaku POV

I sniffed the air, it now smelled strongly of alcohol. I looked at the man with disgust. "A bunch of kids!? These kids can't protect me! I need real ninjas not some jokes! Espacially the small one with the dumb look on his face!" Naruto started to laugh until he realized that the man ment him. He lunged at him and flailed his arms as Kakashi held him back. "You can't kill the client Naruto." Kakashi said sweat dropping.

The old man looked at me and laughed, "And who's the freak!? Why don't they have that dog on a leash!?" He said in between laughs. I walked up to him and looked him straight in the eyes, "What's your name?" I asked solemnly. He quickly responded, "I'm Tazuna. A great bridge builder." I scoffed, "Well Tazuna, if you so much as talk to me during the rest of this mission at all, I will make it so no one will remember you. I will kill anyone who knows you exist and destroy anything you have been associated with or created. Understand...?" I said darkly. He gulped in response. "Good." I said and walked back to the bench and listened to Kakashi tell us what we need and what time to meet him at the gates.
