[RebornSerenity]

They'd been in training as long as they could remember. That fateful day forced his path to where he was now. Sasuke never knew the meaning of friendship, family, a childhood. His older brother had taken everything from him and from that day he vowed to take out Itachi. This was his entire reasoning behind him joining school to become a ninja. He had been training a little bit ever since that day, thriving to become stronger and stronger. He had been put in with a team finally and today, he was to meet them. The first training was with a man called Kakashi, apparently their sensei. Sasuke had nothing but respect for the man in learning his skills. He seemed to be quite secretive about who he was, but Sasuke knew something was up with him - what was behind his mask he wondered. The first training day was the first time he saw who's team he was on. His eyes fell onto Naruto's and he glared slightly. He was stuck with this guy? He sighed and put his hands in his pockets. He then looked over and saw the girl that had been into him since they were younger. He sighed silently again looking down and waiting for the training to start. He of course ended up with the first bell, and sakura with the second. Naruto was left out and he ended up tied to a post while the other two ate. Sasuke knew that they would be fighting with the sensei after everything so he offered some food to Naruto. Sakura did as well and both of them filched when Kakashi came in and explained what happened. They were finally done with it, they were genin now. He was unfortunately with Naruto, and Naruto had to be the most annoying kid he'd ever met.

______________________________________________________

Sasuke had no interest in these people, regardless of them being part of the team, but even so he had to understand the principles of teamwork. He had to at least care for them enough to help them out, without them he couldn't pass the exams. He had to make sure they didn't hold him back, yes, it was all for his own good that's all. Their first mission, an escort mission. He was a little iffy, and the guy they were escorting was a complete dick but hey, a mission is a mission. He went along with it and started to feel like things were starting off strangely, soon they got deep into the mission and things started to feel... iffy. "Hey... " he said to Kakashi, "I don't like the feeling of this..."

Kakashi turned to him. He was getting a little uneasy too. This was supposed to be a D rank mission, one that they could do easy but things started to get weird. Suddenly, shirikans flew out of the trees hitting kakashi. They slammed into his chest and back and he collapsed, but it didn't take long for the illusion to break as the body turned into a tree log. Kakashi listened and told the others to get down, there was something going on and he didn't know what yet.

Sasuke had been standing by Naruto and as usual Naruto hadn't been listening as a kunai flew straight for him. Sasuke pulled out his Fuma Shuriken and extended it to block the kunai headed at Naruto then grabbed the front of his vest and yanked him to the ground. They were too low in rank to deal with whatever was going on they had to rely on Kakashi. Sasuke ignored all if any complaining from Naruto as he held him down to the ground while Kakashi protected the kids for the moment.

"Sasuke, Naruto, Sakura, protect the bridge builder." He said outloud as he found 3 of the 5 that were attacking them. He was able to take out two of them but the others were headed straight for the 3 kids. Sasuke used a jutsu that he called Fireball and he blew fire from his mouth towards the invaders. The guys seemed to back off just before Kakashi had gotten to them. This was dangerous, why was a group of these people after the bridge builder? Once the danger seemed to pass, Sasuke glanced at Naruto and Sakura to make sure they were okay. He put away his fuma and walked over to the guy that Kakashi had knocked unconcious. "What are they?" Sasuke asked.

Kakashi didn't answer, turning to the bridge builder. "Alright, out with it, who are you and why are we being attacked. This is supposed to be a D rank mission, what do you think you're doing classifying this as a D, this should be at least an A if not higher. Who are you?"

The man explained and kakashi widened his eyes. "... This should be an S, you lied... and your lie is putting us all at risk!"

"I couldn't afford paying for an S rank..."

Kakashi didn't look happy about this. In fact, he told him they were going back, but the man watching from the mist had other ideas.


( Sorry for the amount, I enjoyed the scenes with the Zabuza stuff, and I think it's a good way to build up their friendship over time by doing these small but dangerous missions )
