Secrets

C-Rank Mission

Ryuu's POV

"Bubble Gum here. Point C."

"Duck butt. Point B."

"Shorty. Point D."

"...Ramen Boy. Point A. Believe it!"

"Your slow Naruto. Ready and...GO!" Kakashi shouted.

Naruto got to the cat and it started scratching his face, while I died of laughter watching him.

"Hahahaha-Naruto-haha-you got-hahaha-a little some-hahaha-thing there!" I said in between laughs while pointing at his face.

"Target Captured. Red ribbon on left ear confirmed." Sasuke stated.

"CAN'T WE GET A BETTER MISSION THAN THIS! I HATE CATS!" Naruto screamed through the earpiece. Luckily I already took mine off so...hehe. Sucks to suck.

Timeskip

"Now then for squad 7's next mission, we have several available tasks." The Hokage droned on.

"No!" Naruto interrupted. "I want to go on a real mission. Something challenging and exciting, not this little kid stuff! Come on old man!"

"He's right! This is all boring and stupid. 6-year-olds could do this stuff." I agreed, nodding my head.

"How dare you! You're just a brand-new genin with no experience!" Iruka started shouting. "Like everyone else, you start with simple missions to developed your skills and prove yourself."

"Are you serious! Babysitting isn't a mission/Doing chores aren't missions! They're just stupid--Ahh" Naruto and I got a punched to the floor by Kakashi.

"Will you two put a lid on it?" Kakashi asked annoyed.

The Hokage started to talk again but I was too busy rubbing my head to care. Naruto and I started to have a conversation on the floor and our teammates just watched us.

"I had tonkatsu ramen last night and I'm thinking of having miso ramen tonight--" 

"No, no! You should have the new super spicey tomato ramen that's coming out today at Ichiraku's! It's supposed to be the spiciest ramen in the world!" I interrupted with stars in my eyes.

"Silence!" The Hokage interrupted my daydreaming.

"Sorry." Kakashi apologized.

"Ahh! You're always lecturing us like you're our grandfather or something!" Naruto exclaimed. 

"But we're not the little brats that used to play pranks all the time! We're ninja now!" I whined with my arms crossed like a baby.

"Yeah! We want a Ninja mission!" Naruto finished.

We turned away from the Hokage and crossed our arms with a pouty face.

"Naruto and Ryuu want us to know that they aren't brats anymore. They're former brats. And they want a real mission. So be it." The Hokage said.

"Huh?" Naruto and I said in surprise.

"Since you are so determined I'm going to give you a C-ranked mission. You'll be bodyguards on a journey." The Hokage said.

"Really? Yes!" Naruto exclaimed. "Who are we guarding?"

"A princess? Oh, a really pretty, rich lady?" I questioned with dollar signs in my eyes.

"Don't be so impatient. I'll bring them in now. Send in our visitor." The Hokage said.

An old man in dirty, smelly clothes walked in drinking alcohol.

"That is definitely not a pretty, rich lady," I whispered to Naruto. He laughed at my comment.

"What the? A bunch of little snot-nosed kids." He took a drink of his alcohol. "And you. The little one with the idiotic look on your face. You really expect me to believe you're a ninja."

"HAHAHAHA. Who's the little one with the idiotic look on his face?" Naruto and I asked laughing.

We all lined up next to each other and I was shorter than Naruto by 7 inches, unfortunately.

"Hahaha. It's you. He's talking about you Ryuu!" Naruto said laughing.

I got an irk mark, "You idiot! He's probably talking about you. I don't have an idiotic face, only you do!" I exclaimed.

"Nuh-uh. He said the short one, and your the shortest!" Naruto declared.

"YEAH, WELL YOU'RE SHORT TOO DUMB ASS!" I yelled pointing at him. Everyone sweatdropped at us.

"The kid's right I'm talking about the orange idiot." The old man said.

"I'll demolish you. Let me get my hands on you. Come on, your mine. Come here." Naruto shouted while Kakashi-sensei held him back saying, "You can't demolish the client Naruto, it doesn't work that way."

The man ignored him saying, "I am Tazuna, the master bridge builder, and I must return to my country. I'm building a bridge there that will change our world, and I expect you to get me there safely, even if it means giving up your life." 

Pssh. As if I would give up my life for a drunk bastard.
