Chinatsu: Both Ninja and Wizard

Ch. 25

Chinatsu's POV

I stood almost patiently as Old man Hokage listed chores for us to do around the village. Good thing I wasn't listening to a thing he was saying, Kakashi has that shit down. I have better things on my mind. Like how the fuck am I going to fix my apartment?????

Now listen, I didn't make most of the mess ok? Remember how I freaked out that one time? Everyone said I was a monster and shit? Yea, so while I was doing that test thing with my team and had a sleepover with Naruto. They broke into my apartment, shits everywhere, but whatever. It's not surprising that they did it, I mean the whole village can be a dick. They did the same to Naruto a long time ago. 

And, yes, I'm upset that my TV is broken and my blankets are ripped up, but I'm more upset that they broke my favorite goddamn mug! A one of a kind mug! Limited edition! Naruto bought it for me with his own money for Christmas two years ago. A mug that said '#1 Sister anyone can have'. It was white with red lettering, my favorite colors. 

I kept the broken glass to glue it back together, all I need is glue. But I can't because they also hid my wallet somewhere!! 

I know that they didn't take it because I found a couple thousand yen scattered around my kitchen. 

But all in all, I won't have enough money to fix the apartment and amp the security. So saving money is the best possible situation to do right now. So, note to self, don't eat five bowls of ramen every day. Lower it down to three a day. Breakfast, lunch, and dinner, done! 

I need to save a bunch of money but that'll take forever! I need a TV, futon, blankets, pillows, a couch, more silverware, paint, and a fan. Do you know how much money it is to buy all that shit again??! Old man Hokage had got me all the more expensive stuff for me but besides that, I still had used a lot of money with everything else. 

"Chinatsu? Are you listening?"  A voice knocks me out of my thoughts. Right, I'm still with the Hokage. I froze and looked around the room, quietly. 

"Sorry, things on my mind, is there something that I should know?" I question. The Hokage looks at me questioningly. "I'm sure your team will explain later, you'll be meeting everyone including the client. Right now he is currently occupied at the moment, he seemed to have forgotten something at the Inn he is staying in. You five will be meeting at the village entrance at four thirty, take enough things that you'll need for the week." The Hokage informs. I mean I was still in the dark of what was happening, but I have only a bit of it down. 

I nod anyway and The Hokage dismisses us. 

I turn to Naruto as we leave. "Dude, what the fuck happened? For most of it, I forgot we were even in there still." 

"I managed to convince The Hokage to give us a C-Ranked mission. You're welcome by the way!" Naruto bragged with a smirk. I grinned, happily. "Way to go Naruto!" I clap my hand on his back, "You're the best!"

"C'mon, let's get ready!"

"You two, we have six hours until it's four." Sakura points out. She said something after that but I didn't hear a thing she said after it since Naruto and I ran off already, leaving the others in a smoke of dust. 

~Third POV~

"You two should rest-" Sakura starts off but Naruto and Sakura ran off before she could finish. Sakura pouts, "Geez, those two!" 

"You two go rest up, the mission will be a long one and don't be late," Kakashi said before disappearing. Sakura nervously smiled. She was alone with Sasuke! But she hadn't known Sasuke that he already left. "So, Sasuke," She starts nervously, looking to the side, away from the already gone Sasuke, "I was wondering if you'd want to somewhere to eat before we left?" She turns to where Sasuke was, only to be met with nothing. She looks around for him only to see him walking away in the distance. "Oh, are you going to pack up now? We could get something after!" She had called out to him. 

Geez, she's annoying...Sasuke thought as he continued his quiet walk home. Finally, some peace and quiet. Being with an idiotic group is tiring.

 While the group had left to rest up and pack the Hokage stared at the door the group that had walked out of. "Hokage?" Iruka had called out to him, questioningly. He sat next to him arranging papers for the next Genin group. "Iruka, when we are done and Kakashi's group left, we need to go to Chinatsu's house. Something is bothering her."

"How can you tell?" Iruka questions. "It could be just one of those days."

"Well, I've recorded all of those days already, today is not one of those days. But Chinatsu seemed concentrated on something. She seemed down." The Hokage explained. Iruka thought about it for a second. The Hokage was right, Chinatsu never concentrated that hard on anything. At least not like that. 

Either way, Iruka agreed. He was just as worried about his ex-student as Hokage was, if not more! "How many more groups do we have?" Iruka questioned. "Only a few," The Hokage responded, calming the eager man. Iruka nodded. 

"Bring in the next group, please, Squirrel." The Hokage ordered and the Anbu by the door nods and goes to retrieve the next group.
