Naruto: Pre-Shippuden! Series 1! - Leading to the Fourth Shinobi World War!

3: A Dangerous Mission: Journey to the Land of Waves!

MinataNamikaze1: The disclaimer: I do not own Naruto cause if I did then Sakura wouldn't be a useless fan girl in pre-shippuden and Naruto would have his Father's smarts while keeping his Mother's personality and knows about seals and how to use to them. I do, however, own Izuna Namikaze (Uchiha). Remember to Read and Review to let me know what you think. Also if you don't like any twist that I might make then stop reading and find something else to read plus don't leave a review that's a flame or I will find a way to block you. Ja ne!

...My Line...

"Hawk here. I'm at point B."

"Panther here. I'm at point C."

"Fox here, ya know. I'm at point A."

It's been a month since the 8 graduates plus Sasuke where put into teams and started on advance training along going on D-Rank missions. And one could find Squad 7 on one of those missions right at that moment though they were starting to get annoyed with them.

"Uh," Izuna mumbled. "The target had moved. After it!" The three Genin followed their target. "What's your distance from the target?"

"5 meters," the blonde answered. "I'm ready. Give the signal."

"I'm ready as well."

"Same here."

The dark blonde hair Jonin waited for a few seconds.

"NOW!" he ordered.

The Genins jumped out of their hiding spots, however, Naruto was the one, who caught the cat, though he got his face stretched by it.

"Here kitty," the blunette said as she held out a cat treat.

The cat looked over to her and the shock of the two boys it walked over to the Hyuuga and allowed Hinata to pick it up as she gave the treat to it.

"Confirm it's the target?" the Jonin asked.

"Affirmative," Sasuke answered. "It has a ribbon on left ear."

"Then mission accomplished," their Sensei said. "Now let's return the hell...I mean, Tora back to his owner."

The three Genin all looked each other as they were sure the 26-year-old was about to say hellcat, but decided against wanting to know.

...My Line...

Izuna was leaning against the wall after having returned to the mission room and watched with a sick twisted smirk as a woman named Shijimi suffocated the cat. He really, truly, absolutely, hates that cat, enough said.

"Oh my poor little Tora," she told the cat. "Mommy was so worried about her little naughty fuzzy cakes. Yeees."

Naruto and Sasuke watched in sick glee as the cat suffered.

"No wonder he ran away," Hinata stated with sympathy.

The Hokage looked at a scroll of D-rank missions.

"Now then," he said. "For Squad 7's next mission. We have several tasks." He then looked surprised. "Huh? Among them babysitting the Chief counselor's three year old, helping his wife do their shopping, digging up potatoes, and..."

"NO!" Naruto yelled as he crossed his arms in an X shape. "I want to go on a real mission! Something challenging and exciting! Not this kid's stuff! Come on old man!?"

Izuna felt his eye twitched in annoyances, but he knew that it had been only a matter of time before Naruto said something.

'He's got a point,' Sasuke thought.
