My Dearest Rival

The Mission

As kakashi went on about his life of training, and missions he had almost forgot about his mark until one fateful mission.

"Hey kakashi sensei?" Asked naruto.

"Hmm." Was kakashi's reply to the blond.

"I heard lee asking guy sensei about some sort of soul mark on his hand the other day. Do you know what it is?" Asked naruto.

"Oh yeah! I heard it to. Something about the mark means you have a soulmate. It's so romantic, isn't it sasuke." Said sakura.

"Tch." Was the uchihas reply to the girl.

"Any way do you know anything about these soul marks sensei?" Asked naruto again.

"Well I don't believe in them, but I've heard some stories bef-"

Before kakashi could say anything else they were ambushed by a few rough ninja.

As team 7 fought them off kakashi's shirt, and vest were ripped by a kunai. As the battle came to an end naruto and sakura looked at kakashi's back to see the spots.

"We need to get them back to the village so they can be dealt with." Said kakashi as he changed his shirt and slung the rough ninjas over his back to take back to the village.

"Did you see that he has one of those marks just like lee was talking about." Whispers sakura to naruto.

"Yeah I saw it to who do you think kakashi's soulmate is?" Asked naruto.

"I don't know but I hope he finds them soon he seems lonely a lot, even with us around." Said sakura back to naruto.

"Yeah you're right sakura." Agreed naruto.

All the while kakashi could hear them, but stayed quite.

Do I really seem so alone. I never thought I was alone I have friends, but I guess I do lonely when I go home to an empty house

Kakashi thought as they walked back to the village.

As they arrived kakashi dismissed his students and went to take the rough ninja to the hokage. However he was interrupted by none other than might guy himself.

"Kakashi my eternal rival I see you're back from your mission." Guy said as he landed infront of kakashi.

"Yes I have, but I need to get these rough ninja to the hokage then give a full report. I have no time for a competition right now guy." Said kakashi.

"Well I can help then." Guy said.

He then took the rough ninja from kakashi and started heading to the hokage tower.

What guy didn't know was that there was make-up on the rough ninja, and as kakashi saw this he slightly panicked.
