Having picked up their next set of D-rank missions, team 7 began heading towards their first. To paint a fence around the property of an elderly couple at the outskirts of the village. The three genin grumbled as they carried their buckets of white paint, while their jounin sensei followed behind, giggling at a suspicious orange book.

Naruto, leaning towards his teammates, whispered "I don't know about you guys, but I feel as if our sensei needs to be taught a lesson. He does nothing except read that book of his and lazes around."

"What do you think we should do?" Replied Sakura, leaning her head in.

"Hn."

Naruto and Sakura looked at Sasuke in shock. "Plan 17? Sakura hissed. Don't you think that's a bit much for something like this?"

Naruto smirked. "Nah, I think it's a wonderful idea. At any rate, sensei deserves it."

"If you say so." Sakura sighed. Though there still was a gleam in her eye.

"Hn."

Kakashi watched his three genin snicker among themselves. He would always deny this, but he truly feared for what might happen. Or any other that would cross paths with them.

Everything was silent for the rest of the way there.

Naruto was currently wiping the fence with the paint covered brush, seemingly working hard and focused. Sakura was a few feet away, looking every bit of a perfectionist in her strokes of the brush. Sasuke, well…

Was looking at his part of the fence like he was about to set it on fire.

Kakashi paled. It wouldn't look good if they came back with a D-rank leaving the place worse off than before.

He sighed, at least they were working without complaining. He went back to his book, it was just getting good. Kakashi was getting deeper and deeper until…

POOF!

Jumping to his feet, he realized that his three genin were gone! Somehow, the fence was even completely finished! Unaware through his shock, he barely looked up in time to see a bucket of paint fall onto his head. Covering his hair, clothes, and… and…

His book!

Grumbling, he set out to find his genin, unaware they had never left the tree. All three giggling silently, even a certain brooding emo.

"Stage 1, complete."

"Hn."

"Yes, great idea Naruto, using kage bunshins to finish the work. Kakashi sensei didn't even realize they were there when Sasuke and I applied a genjutsu on them!"

Naruto snickered. "Let's go wreak some havoc."

"Hn."

"Of course, of course, we'll make sure that cat gets what it deserves."

"It better."

"Hnnn."

"And yes, you can use your fire jutsus on it. Just let Sakura be able to soak it down afterwords. Happy?"

"Hn."

"Good."

Throughout the day, Kakashi had to ignore endless questions from fellow jounin about why he was covered in paint, feathers, and itching powder. To all that he replied was, "Walking Inuzuka dogs." Not to mention he had to explain to the Sandaime why Tora had all her hair shaved off, and was soaking wet.

It was obvious however, that the only ones who could be blamed were the genins of team 7. Everyone saw them set the demon cat on fire. Though everyone was equally upset when it was doused afterwards.

Naruto giggled. "Well, it looks more proper now. Looks like a rat!"

Sakura burst out laughing. Though stopped when Tora began hissing at them. Sasuke smirked.

And lit a fireball in his palm.

Tora wouldn't leave the inside of the Sandaime's hat for the rest of the wait.

When the Daimyo's wife came around, Tora didn't hesitate to jump in her arms. Probably too terrified to be near the insane team 7. As they left, the three genin gave Tora a grin that threatened to split their faces. Behind them, everything seemed to go dark, and fires seemed to erupt everywhere. Eerie laughing was heard in the background. Sasuke even went as far to summon another little fireball in his hands. The Daimyo's wife and Tora couldn't get out of there fast enough.

Everyone looked at the three genin. Staring as they attempted to look as innocent as possible. It was surprisingly convincing.

The old Hokage cleared his throat. "Uh, missions completed team 7. You may take the rest of the day off. Kakashi, you may go clean yourself up. It looks like you had a pretty rough day."

Kakashi could only nod, too tired to say anymore words. Everyone just stared at the small storm cloud that followed him out of the office.

Why did I ever agree to take a genin team? He wailed to himself. They are devils disguised as children!

Next up, we got the mission to wave! Stay tuned in for what our crazy team 7 have in offer for our poor Zabuza and Haku! Possibly featuring tomatoes and raw fish!... Don't ask. Catch ya later!
