Lotus Of The Leaf ~Book One~

Chapter 61! A New Chapter! The Idiot Brothers!

~*****~

Every morning, I'd start my day at the Hyuga Manor, learning every single chakra point on a Shinobi's body, and putting what I'd learned into training with dummy's. Slowly, but surely, I'd learned how to sever the chakra points by expelling chakra from the tips of my fingers. Then, I'd head down the Hokage mansion to train along side Sakura in medical ninjutsu. At noon, I'd stop to have a hearty lunch before meeting Guy-Sensei, Lee, and Ten Ten in the forest for intense taijutsu training. After Three, I'd return to Lady Tsunade and being preparations for the upcoming Jonin Exam. At night, if he was around, Kakashi would train with me until about ten. Then, I'd turn in to sleep until I start the process over again the next day.

Currently, I had been graced with a small mission to the Land of Tea, and it took well over a day. Once I bid Boss Jirocho and Idate farewell, I headed back towards to Konoha. I let out a loud yawn as I stretched my arms over my head while I strode down the dirt path. "Hey- Miss- I need some help!" I hear a voice call out from the side of the road. I can't see who's calling out, but there definitely was someone there. As I make a move towards him, I'm surrounded by four men- all dressed in the prison outfits.

"Whoa, was there a prison break?" I hum curiously.

"That's right- Now give us your all your money!" The biggest one sneers. The others started chiming in agreement as they circled in closer.

Normally, I'd just use my kekkei genkai to resolve this quickly, but I was dying to try out the move Neji taught me. "Eight Trigrams: Palm Rotation!" The cluster of prisoners shoot back with shouts of pain and shock. A smirk wraps onto my lips before I quickly incapacitate them.

Once again, I'm whistling softly as I haul the four prisoners towards Konoha in ropes. I spot Tsunade and Kakashi along the road of Hokage mansion.

"Hey, what's going on?" I ask as I roll the four prisoners besides the two Kakashi had by his feet. "Did you pick those two up on the way back from your mission?"

"Yeah," He hummed as he rubbed the back of his head. "There's a lot of commotion around here at the moment, huh?"

"Yeah," Tsunade sighs.

"So, what did Naruto do this time?" Kakashi asked. "Ren, you should probably follow after Naruto for the time being."

"Sir," I nod and leap onto the roof tops. I caught up to the blond knuckle head and Ton Ton. "What are you doing?" I ask as I fall in besides him.

"This recent prison break-- It's got something to do with Orochimaru!" Naruto vaguely explained.

"Naruto, this isn't something a Genin should--"

"Just butt out! I'm not giving up on Sasuke!" Naruto snapped. My heart thumped in slight pain.

"I'm not telling you to! I was suggesting you shouldn't go alone!" I snapped back. Naruto cast an apologetic glance before grinning brightly.

"Well why didn't ya just say so! Let's go!" Naruto cheered.

With Tonton leading us through the forest, the small pig finally stopped at what looked like to be a discarded prison top on the round. "What do you think?" I hum softly as I kneel down to the small creature.

Tonton snorted heartily and glanced up. "They're here!" Naruto gasped, and turned on his heel to attack the intruder that leapt from the bushes.

"Hold on, Naruto!" I shout. "It's Iruka!"
