*Naruto's POV*
I was suddenly woken up by this girl "Oh, good morning" the 'girl' said making me give a confused look "Good morning" I replied "What are you doing in the forest?" the 'girl' asks "I'm training!" I answered making the 'girl' hum with a thinking face "Do you have anyone precious that you want to protect?" 'she' asked making me think.
*Shiro's POV*
"Has anyone seen Naruto-kun?" Tsunami asked worriedly making me think for a bit before shrugging "He's probably out training or he probably passed out and fell asleep last night while he trained, it's either those two" I answered making Tsunami nod slightly as I finished breakfast, suddenly Sasuke stood up "Huh, Sasuke-kun where are you going?" the cockroach asked "Out for a walk" Sasuke muttered as he grabbed my wrist and pulled me out of the house. I ignored the fact he was still pulling me as I looked around at nature, it was really beautiful when you got past through all the hate and gory it's been through, I then blinked and snatched my hand back noticing a boy coming over after he finished talking with Naruto.
As the boy passed me and Sasuke, the boy looked at me in the corner of his eyes and faintly blushed before looking down and continued to walk away so I looked over my shoulder confused but I shrugged it off as me and Sasuke went over to Naruto. I crouched down to Naruto's height while Sasuke lightly kicked him making Naruto glare up at him "Why'd you do that teme?!" Naruto asked annoyed "You missed breakfast dobe" Sasuke said with an unamused look making me sweatdrop wondering if the Uchiha can show emotions. After that they both started training again making me just sit back and relax watching the two be idiots for the time being, I then felt a chakra the boy had that we saw earlier so I stood up and disappeared quietly as I walked through the trees, I then noticed Zabuza and the masked boy. The two looked over at me, Zabuza seemed like he was ready to attack me so I quickly lifted up my hands "I'm not here to attack you" I said kinda freaking out that I'll die until I'm an adult or I'm a father for Kami's sake, "What do you want then?" Zabuza asked annoyed as he let some of his guard slip, I mentally sweatdropped at the cow man before grinning slightly "I was wondering if you could train me in Kenjutsu" I asked making Zabuza raise a somewhat eyebrow at me "Are you kidding me?" He stated making me shrug "It's your choice, if you don't want too, I'll just go find a man named Kisami Hoshigaki" I replied.
Zabuza thought for a second before nodding "I'll train ya kid, but we have to fight you and your team at the bridge tomorrow" he stated making me nod in agreement "Alright" I agreed, "While I rest up, you can share a bedroom with Haku, Haku can you take this boy to your bedroom?" Zabuza asked making Haku blush behind his mask and nod "Yes Zabuza" he answered as he motioned me to follow him. As we entered the small cabin we walked over to a certain door, which made Haku open it, I let Haku go inside first before following him.
I shut the door behind us as Haku took off his mask making my eyes slightly widen before raising an eyebrow as he sat down on the bed blushing heavily, I blushed faintly noticing how cute he looked like without a mask and trying not to act tough. I went over to him sitting down on the bed taking my sandals off to the side and I then brought my feet up and settled them down on the bed, I laid back throwing my right arm to the side which covered a couple of the pillows. I then felt pressure as I quietly sighed so I looked over noticing a blushing Haku as he snuggled into my side, I blushed a bit harder before faintly smiling so I rolled over slightly wrapping my left arm around him. Haku quietly squeaked as he looked up at me before blushing heavily, he looked away as he blushed harder making me mentally chuckle in amusement.
*Inari's POV*
As I finished yelling at Naruto I instantly went to my room crying, "They have no chance against Gatō" I whispered as tears went down my face.
*Shiro's POV*
I quietly heard snoring so I looked down at Haku noticing he was fast asleep, I slightly smiled as I got a blanket from the bottom of the bed and covered us both with the blanket, "If something happens, I'll try to protect you with my life" I whispered softly as I closed my eyes falling asleep.
*Kakashi's POV*
As I finished talking with Inari, I went back to the bedroom Tsunami let me stay in until our mission was over. I sighed softly as I laid down in the bed and pulled out Icha Icha Paradise quietly reading it, I then started to wonder where Shiro was at. I looked over at the window "Where are you Shiro?" I murmured softly as I shook my head as I turned back to the book as I continued to read my book.
*Cockroa-*cough*Sakura's POV*
I looked around the bedroom quietly "Is Shiro-kun alright? He can't die, he just disappeared right? Did a rouge ninja take him? Is he going to be a slave for money?" I asked myself worriedly as I sat down on the bad sighing quietly "Maybe I shouldn't worry, Shiro-kun is strong enough" I whispered as I laid back into the bed "Yeah....I shouldn't worried, who cares about that weakling? He should've been killed with his parents, I'll ask Mom to secretly kill him, I'll be in the spotlight of killing a monster, yeah that sounds good" I whispered with an evil smirk before falling asleep.
