CHAPTER ONE

Kakashi popped in front of his faithful Team seven, immediately being barraged by outraged shouts at his lateness. The predictable fuming cries from Naruto and Sakura, and the usual slight twitch in Sasuke's right eye. The jounin just laughed and brought out some paper from the pouch at his backside.

"What's that for, Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto demanded immediately, coming dangerously close to the teacher, trying to peer at the papers. Sakura hit him on the head.

"Just let him explain, baka!" she yelled. Kakashi sighed. Man, these teenagers of his were proving to be even more troublesome than their twelve-year-old selves. He brought the papers out of reach of the curious fox-boy.

He earned their attention by clearing his throat. "Alright, today's mission… is to improve on our teamwork!" He didn't even need to hear the groans that followed his announcement. "Now, I have with me one sheet of paper for each of us. Yes, that does mean that I am actually participating in this, as teacher-student relations are just as important as student-student relations." He gave a crafty smile beneath his mask.

Sasuke rolled his years, CLEARLY seeing just how much fun this exciting task was promising. Naruto hung his head and slumped his shoulders, openly showing how Sasuke was feeling by loudly complaining. Their female teammate actually seemed to like the idea, though.

"So, on each of these sheets in a set of topics. We will go around asking questions to each other according to these topics. And you actually have to give a detailed response," at this he glanced over at the Uchiha, who in turn rolled his eyes again, "because you will be handing in your answered sheet to me at the end of the session." He gave his characteristic happy smile, loving his job.

"Aw, you mean we actually have to write stuff?" Naruto asked, disappointed. He nevertheless took the pen and paper his sensei handed him. "Hmph, I'm sure that Sasuke-teme doesn't even have anything interesting to say anyways." He pouted, reading the topic list.

Sakura looked adoringly at Sasuke. "Oh I'm sure he has lots interesting to say! More than you Naruto!"

The four at down in a close circle on a spot in the grass, each holding their paper and pen on their thigh.

"Good. Now, who would like to go first and start the rounds?" Kakashi asked. He was actually surprised that they have cooperated thus far.

Naruto glanced at the dark-haired boy beside him and narrowed his eyes, almost daring him to volunteer. Sakura then raised her hand with enthusiasm. Well, she was happy that today's mission was a quiet writing one rather than an active one, after all. She needed a break from always training.

Kakashi nodded. "Alright Sakura. Choose a topic and a vic – I mean, member and ask away!" Sasuke glared at the man, and at fate. He knew who the girl was going to choose; it was ridiculously obvious. Stupid Kakashi and his stupid team bonding exercises.

Sakura looked at Sasuke, who was sitting across the quadrant from her. "Sasuke! I choose you!" Sasuke twitched. That phrase seemed ODDLY familiar to him… Sakura glanced down at her topic list, grinning. "Alright, hm… what are your favourite things to go, besides mission related activities?" She looked back up, waiting for an answer and gripping her pen over her paper. The other members of the quad turned their attention to Sasuke.

Sasuke didn't move a muscle or react to the pressure. "Hn. I don't have any other hobbies than training for missions."

"Sasuke, you must have at least one thing to do to pass the time," Kakashi offered. "Just think of anything you do at home."

The Uchiha sighed. "Fine. I think. That's my favourite thing to do at home." Kakashi rolled his eyes. Well, he supposed that was the best he was going to get.

Sakura perked up. "About who? Or what?" she asked, hoping his answer would be her.

"How I'm going to avenge my clan and murder Itachi."

Naruto smirked, snorting out loud at the predictable answer. "Hah! I knew it. Geez, how boring."

Sakura shrugged and neatly wrote out her answer, happy to have gotten one at all.

Naruto was practically bouncing in his seat with excitement. "Ooh, pick me next! Alright, SAKURA—"

"Actually, I'm imposing a new rule. Whoever had just been asked has to then ask next," Kakashi spoke up. "So that would put Sasuke as next."

Naruto pouted and glared at Sasuke.

'Oh yay…' Sasuke thought sarcastically. He glanced down at the list of topics he had and then at his three companions, thinking about how stupid all of this really was. But as his gaze passed over Kakashi, he was a tad startled at the maniacal look him his eye. It was telling Sasuke: 'Do it or else you DIE!' Sasuke twitched. 'Um… fine then.' "Naruto-dobe," he mumbled his choice, looking to his left. Naruto seemed a bit too excited to having been asked by Sasuke.

"YEAH?!" he shouted enthusiastically, nearly causing everyone in the circle to become permanently deaf.

'What a total MORON! Ugh…' "Who… um," he paused, thinking over his choice of question. He stared at his subject sheet, deciding which one was the least stupid to ask. All of them were pointless, but he supposed he WAS being evaluated on this. "Why did you invent the Sexy no Jutsu?" He asked, picking from the Techniques section.

Naruto gave a toothy grin. "Wow, you actually asked a good question! Hm, I invented it so I could anything from a guy, and so I could defeat enemies on a mission with it. It works pretty well! Like, take Ebisu and Ero-senin…"

"Alright, I get it," Sasuke cut him off, jotting down the reply. That question and answer had actually satisfied all of team seven's curiosities, whether they would admit it or not. Naruto's Sexy no Justu and related techniques were very interesting, after all. At least that's what Kakashi thought. Sakura was just glad that Sasuke had asked it first and that she hadn't had to. Now she could avoid the disturbing demonstration that Naruto would have undoubtedly given, had she had asked him.

Naruto didn't even have to be picked to ask his question and take his first turn. He just plunged right into it. The rest of the group was a tad jolted when he even stood up and jabbed a finger down at Kakashi, yelling out; "Kakashi-sensei! Why don't you ever take off your mask?!" Ah. Now THAT felt good.

Sasuke and Sakura leaned forward in anticipating, anxious to hear the response.

"Hn, interesting question. I never take my mask off because… I don't feel the need to," he replied, looking cross-eyed up at Naruto's finger.

All of this students collectively groaned. "That's not a very detailed answer!" exclaimed the blond, who had sat down somewhat dejectedly and wrote down the reply anyways. Kakashi merely shrugged and made a sound of indifference, being the cool person he is.

Sasuke twitched in annoyance. This game really was a HUGE waste of his time. He would rather be training, or preoccupying himself with something useful.

Kakashi smiled and stole a glance down at the paper lying in his lap. "My turn!" he said joyously. "I think I'll choose… Sasuke!" he got the famous Uchiha death-glare. "If you could go anywhere in the world, where and why?"

Sasuke rested his head in his hands, thinking over the response he would give. "I would go to wherever my enemies currently were, to defeat them." Naruto almost gagged at the boring answer.

Sakura glistened. "So brave!" she whispered, in awe.

Sasuke didn't even look up from the ground as he asked, "Sakura, what would be your ideal mission?"

The kunoichi sat up, fixing her posture to be polite when answering. "Hmm… probably what we're doing right now, or reconnaissance on an enemy party." After answering she grinned and watched as her questioner wrote down her words. She took a breath and began to say the 's' that began Sasuke's name but received an intense warning glare from across and changed the name on her lips.

"Uh, okay, Naruto-kun. Oh, hehe, who is your crush?"

Naruto's eyes widened. "What? That can't be on the list!" He checked the list. Damnit, it was on the list! "Aw Kakashi-sensei, why the hell did you put something like THAT in?!" He gave a heated glare at his sensei.

"Just answer!" Both Sasuke and Sakura pushed at the same time, proceeded by an awkward silence all around…

Kay, so, I thought that'd be good place to end the first chapter. Bwahah. So, I hope it's not too obvious who's gonna be Naruto's answer to Sakura's question. Well, keep reading and you'll find out! Reviews will help the chapter get posted faa-a-ster!
