I'm going to keep the old one up for anyone that would like to read it, but it won't be updated anymore. Gonna try and keep chapters around 1k words or more. 1k being the bare minimum for the chapter since life is still involved. Also thank you readers for voting in the poll, there is now a new one out for you to vote in. The polls are for future ideas if I do them at all.

"Talking"

'Talking inside one's head'

'Talking to himself/herself'

'Talking to special types of characters'

One month. One month is the amount of time he's been in this new world that Kisuke sent him and Aizen to. He wished he knew where Aizen was at the moment so they could figure out their plans for this world, but to his misery they got separated when the machine sent them over to this new world.

So for now he decided to follow the other Ichigo's footsteps in this world, continuing his education at this so called academy for shinobi. Deep down knowing that he was only using this to keep his sanity out of the hands of the voices as he felt them lurk in the corners of his inner world waiting for any sign of weakness.

"You ready moron?"

Ichigo looked to his left seeing his teammates call out to him, stopping the search for Aizen's spirit ribbon.

"Sup," Ichigo responded knowing that she would argue with him if he took the bait and he wasn't in the mood for it.

'She's so rude.'

'At least she didn't try to kill me when we first met,' Ichigo said looking at Kaguya who looked away puffing up her cheeks like a child being caught stealing cookies.

'I already apologized for that,' Kaguya said looking away.

"Come on, let's go," Naruko said walking by Ichigo who seemed not to be paying attention.

"Huh?" Ichigo asked confirming what she was thinking.

Naruko rubbed her forehead wondering why her father wanted her to be on this dumbasses team knowing that Satsuki and her alone would be more than enough for a squad. "I said we need to go to the Hokage tower to meet up with Kakashi-nii and Satsuki to get our mission. Kakashi-nii said it was going to be a surprise."

"Let's go then," Ichigo said heading towards the Hokage tower with Naruko grinding her teeth behind him.

"And I thought I was the one who is usually late," Kakashi said seeing Naruko and Ichigo walk into the Hokage's office before lining up with Satsuki. Naruko barely containing her anger inside herself.

"Stuff it Kakashi-nii," Naruko replied not in the mood after being around Ichigo. "What's the mission?"

"Dobe if you were here earlier you would know," Satsuki said pushing her hair out of her eyes back behind her ears.

"Oi, stop calling me dobe," Naruko yelled at Satsuki who knew that the nickname bothered her. "One time being deadlast and you can't let me live it down can you teme." She replied knowing that it would push Satsuki's buttons.

"You're mission is a C-rank," The man at the desk said throwing the scroll to Kakashi and interrupting the genin. "Your job is to protect a certain individual."

"Who?" Ichigo asked curious on what type of person they would be protecting.

"Who?" A voice said from the doorway. "Well the greatest builder to ever live in the world is who. Tazuna's my name don't you forget it."

"No relation," Naruko said as everyone stared at her, seeing that the man's attitude seemed familiar to them.

"So you fifteen year old brats are going to protect me?" Tazuna asked drinking out of the beer bottle he had in his hand.

"It's more than enough to protect your old ass you geezer," Naruko yelled being held back by Kakashi before she could rush him.

"I'll meet you guys in an hour at the entrance of the village, so be ready to leave," Tazuna said wanting to get back to his home to complete the bridge.

"That's fine," Kakashi said eye-smiling as his hand got chewed on by Naruko for trying to cover her mouth. "You heard him go pack your things my cute little genin."

"Let's go!" Naruko yelled seeing everyone at the gate.

"What got you so excited brat?" Tazuna asked seeing that her whole demeanor changed from earlier.

"Just happy we're not doing a D-rank mission," Naruko responded smiling as she was filled with joy of not having to catch that demon cat again.

"Hey am I really going to be safe with this brat?" Tazuna asked Kakashi. "Like I trust carrot top and emo over there more than this one."

Ichigo took a couple of steps away from Satsuki as he felt the negative energy come off her in waves.

"Underestimating us would be a very poor decision Tazuna-san," Satsuki said her eyes covered by her hair onyx hair.

"Yeah it would be," Naruko said cracking her knuckles with a smile that promised pain.

"Let's go squad 7," Kakashi said as he put his hands on the shoulder of Naruko and Satsuki pushing them past the gate.

"So what's wave country like?" Naruko asked Tazuna seeing that she's never heard of it before now.

Tazuna scratched his head at that question not expecting anyone to ask. "Well it used to be a peaceful country but some stuff happened."

"What type of stuff?" Naruko pressed on curious what happened to his home.

"Well a company started blockading the ports that we use for good to get through," Tazuna said to her, but not saying to much that it would give him away. "That's why I need to build that bridge, so we can have goods traveling through my home again."

"What company?" Kakashi asked looking at the puddle of water they just passed.

"The Gatō company," Tazuna said expecting something to happen but it never came.

"So the richest company in the world is blockading your ports," Kakashi said flipping through his book once again. "Sounds like this mission should have been ranked higher."

"Why is that?" Tazuna asked as they made their way to the shore where his friend was waiting with a boat to ship them over to his home.

"Oh nothing," Kakashi replied putting the book away as the reached the boat. "Let's go my cute little genin get in the boat now."

"We're not little," Naruko said as she took a seat on the boat next to Satsuki. "All of us are fifteen, so stop calling us little."

"You're all little in my eyes and cute," Kakashi told her as his stared her down, daring her to say otherwise.

"Fine," Naruko grumbled. "Let's just go."
