Burning Blue Leaf Shinobi

Chapter 4

After Ryou left the group, Kakashi and the other quickly went over to where Y/N was as he was breathing heavily.

Naruto: Y/N!

Kakashi quickly opened the vile as he moved Y/N's mask slightly to allow him to drink the antidote. Y/N, despite being unconscious, drank the antidote as his breathing was still heavy.

Sakura: Is he going to be alright?

Kakashi: For now. Said as he looked at Tazuna. How far is it to your home?

Tazuna: Not far. Once we get there, we'll get him a room to rest.

Kakashi: Right.

After Kakashi put the mask back on Y/N's face, he picked him up onto his back.

Kakashi: Let's move.

They all started to move to Tazuna's house, Sakura decided to ask Kakashi.

Sakura: Kakashi sensei, who was that? The guy in the weird outfit?

Kakashi: Ryou Scorpion. A deadly assassin who specializes in a wide variety of poisons from the Mist Village. He uses a wide range of attacks and techniques to inflict poisons on his enemies. Some of the poisons he creates are extremely deadly which can easily kill someone in a matter of seconds.

Naruto: Seriously?!

Sasuke: If that's the case, is Y/N.

Kakashi: No. He's not dead. Said as he looked at Y/N. If he wanted him dead, then he wouldn't have easily given us the antidote. Despite being a cold assassin, he is somewhat honorable.

They stayed silent thinking about this as they grew a bit worried. He told them about who the Thunder Tiger was along with a few other things. After traveling a while, they arrived at Tazuna's house as they placed him in the spare bedroom allowing him to recover. Kakashi was also exhausted as well from using his Sharingan against Ryou which was going to take him close to a week to recover. 

To prepare for the next encounter, Kakashi decided to train them on how to properly use their chakra using it like it was second nature to them. Naruto and Sasuke struggled to get the idea of it while Sakura seemed to easily do this which annoyed them. As they trained Kakashi went back to the house to check on Y/N to see how he was doing. When he entered the room, he saw that Y/N appeared to be sleeping.

Kakashi 'thought': Guess he's still sleeping.

However, what he didn't know, was that Y/N was already awake well before he arrived here.

Y/N: I'm awake Sensei. What is it?

Kakashi: Sorry. Didn't know you were up with your mask still on.

Y/N: Did you take it off?

Kakashi: No. Said as he sat down next to him. It was reckless for you to charge at Zabuza like the way you did.

Y/N stayed quiet as he looked away from Kakashi.

Kakashi: Listen, this mission has become a lot more dangerous than originally told. Since our enemies are Zabuza, Ryou, and that tracker, this mission is now an A rank Possible higher. Charing at your opponent is extremely dangerous, so you need to be extremely careful. You got lucky this time, but next time won't be the same.

Y/N: I know. Next time, I'll win.

Kakashi looked at him, thinking about what happened earlier.
