"You guys are out of your minds," I said with a bit of laughter. How could they possibly ask me, a rogue vigilante ninja to lead a team of trained shinobi whose mission is to protect the village? I don't want anything to do with the village after what happened years ago and I'm planning on keeping it that way. "Now can I leave?"

"We already told you... you don't have a choice." Kakashi said in a humorous yet menacing voice. However, something like that wasn't going to shut me up at this point. I probably couldn't take them both on being in the situation I was in. If I did, I would just be on wanted posters again. I was honestly tired of always being looked for.

I did have another ability that I could use to escape. One that I could even describe as the most powerful power of my time, but it was a power that is complicated to pull off. Revealing it now would not only lessen its significance but also kill them and the whole village. However, with this being said, I did have a similar power that wasn't as extreme, but yet again, it would kill them.

"Fine. I'll accept your offer." I said hesitantly. At this point, I didn't have much of a choice. I couldn't use my full strength on them and my common powers were being restricted. "But on one condition. I'm not required to say anything or reveal anything about myself. That includes my name." I made sure to add this into it because of the fear I mentioned before; them finding out who I truly am.

Kakashi and Sasuke looked at each other and thought it over for a bit before sighing. "Fine. You don't have to reveal anything... at least not for now. But if any evidence comes up that connects you to a crime, this part of the contract will breach. Understand?" Sasuke said and I nodded. By the time I would breach it, I would be long gone, so this didn't bother me.

"For now, we will have someone give you a tour of the village and show you where you will be staying." I just nodded and they took me out of the cage. I knew that Sasuke had implanted something into me so that I wouldn't use my powers. But little does he know, I've already deactivated it. But I did it in a way that he wouldn't notice. At least, not right now anyway.

"Wait," I suddenly said as something came back to me. "I don't want to lead the group. As a matter of fact, I don't even want to associate myself with them. I will follow your commands and train and go on missions and stuff but I won't buddy up with them. And I want to be paid." I said confidently. I knew very well that I could leave right now if I wanted to, but something inside of me was telling me to stay.

It may sound confusing, but now that they suspect me as the person who caused the panic years ago, I will never be left alone. My life of peace would be gone. Even if I was to alter just their memories, I'm sure my dad knows about this too and so do more shinobis. So if Sasuke and Kakashi suddenly walked in a didn't know anything about me, they would figure out it was me. So I was trapped until I gain their trust and leave on my own.

Hn. I didn't think that things would get this complicated.

Kakashi just laughed at my commands. "Fine, you won't have to lead that group and we will even pay you an allowance. But you will only get paid based on the missions and the amount of training you do. Understand?" He said and I nodded. I couldn't really ask for more at this point. "Shikadai will be coming here soon. He's a shinobi around your age who will train you."

At the mentioned of Shikadai, I rolled my eyes. Of course, it was him. Even though I was a bad friend at first, it was he who continued to bash me. He's probably in this stupid group as well. It's a good thing I said I wanted to avoid them.... well, now that I think about this, even more, I realized that Sarada is probably in this too. That's going to be annoying.

"You called me, Kakashi?" I heard Shikadai say as he walked into the room. He looked basically the same except for the facial hair. The more I looked at him, the more I realized that he was exactly like his father when I last saw him. However, it seemed like he caught me staring since he glared my way. Hn...rude. I said in my mind.

"Yes, Shikadai. I want you to show him around the village and introduce him to others." He told him and Shikadai's eyes widened a bit. Did he know about me too? Of course, he did. And now, everyone else will know as well. "Oh, and if anything odd happens, just do what I told you to do." He said suspiciously and shikadai nodded.

Hn. Idiots. I knew exactly what it was that he was supposed to do. The thing Sasuke implanted into me was supposed to restrict my powers and make it so that if I was about to go out of control, he would be able to stop me with it. However, what he didn't know was that with the high amounts of electricity I have in me, it wasn't hard to disarm it. As long as I don't do anything to make him want to use it, I'm free to use my manipulation powers as I wish.

I'm a lot smarter than I was a couple of years ago...

"I'm Shikadai. The one who will be showing you around." No shit dumbass. I said in my mind. "I will also be training with you and helping you get to our level. We've all been training as a group for a while now so you will be behind." He said a bit smugly. Who did he think he was dealing with? I'm probably stronger than he could even imagine. It's going to be fun showing him up.

"Well, then I guess I will call Shikadai the leader of this group..."  Kakashi started to say and that made me snap.

"No... I changed my mind. I'm the leader now."
