(Naruto) Team Seven: Life Returned (OLD)

Little Ninja

Those who break the rules are trash but those who abandon their teammates are worse than trash! - Hatake Kakashi/Uchiha Obito

He watched the people at the side of the streets, begging, starving. He watched as he saw a man being thrown out of the building, drunk, and without clothes. The man also smelled oddly of perfume plus alcohol. He watched a child that was so hungry, his bones where almost peeking out of the child's skin. As he watched, the things he saw, made him... angry?

Kakashi watched with a façade of disinterest as he walked the streets of the Land of the Waves, keeping his eye out for any hidden shinobi and Gato's men. It would be irresponsible of him to leave three genin at a stranger's house and with S –rank shinobis looking for said stranger. Yes, it would be irresponsible for him as a Jonin-Sensei indeed. But, said three genin have two of the strongest shinobis of written history, and one of the strongest and finest kunoichi medic-nin ever let out since the likes of Tsunade-hime of the Slug Sannin, so he wasn't worried and did one of the thing he didn't since the last time he did the mission, which was look around

As he looked around, every scene, every misfortune that he had the opportunity to watch, only filled him with anger, which surprised Kakashi as he knew he took training to suppress those emotions whenever he was at these situations.

'I guess it's the consequence of being Hokage' he thought as he gritted his teeth. Yes, being Hokage probably bought back these kind of emotions that he wasn't so used at feeling. The feeling of watching the people suffer because of a poor leader, and dictator. That feeling which fueled his anger.

He continued to suppress his anger as he walked down the streets until he felt a tugging at his pants. More specifically, his pant-pocket. As he turned around, he saw a small child running away from him with something familiar at his hands 'Huh, my wallet?' he questioned in his mind, before he chuckled.

He continued watching the child run before he turned into an alley. Ought to not lose his eyes at the child, he decided to shunshin at the rooftop next to the alley. As he appeared at the rooftops, he watched with interest the child look at his wallet, searching for money.

"What you got there twerp?" Kakashi looked at where the voice appeared from and saw the man he watched get thrown out from the building he saw before. He clearly was still drunk. VERY drunk. Kakashi frowned as his nose picked up the smell of alcohol. He looked as the man suddenly walked forward and forcefully took the child's left hand away from the wallet

"NO, LET GO!" The child shouted with fear and anger as he tried to squirm away from the man. The man prepared to hit the child with a backhand before suddenly being hold back by a hand.

"Hey, what's the big id-!" The man started as he turned around before he stopped himself as he stood face to face with a masked man with VERY angry eyes. He was supposed to say something derogatory before he felt an increasing pain from his wrist

"I suggest you scram before I do more damage" Kakashi said accidentally letting out more killing intent than he intended. The man passed out from both the pain and the fear he felt from the killing intent. Kakashi looked at the man's unconscious form and checked his pulse before looking at the child he was watching before.

"Woah! That's cool Mister Ninja!" The kid said in awe as he looked at Kakashi. Kakashi felt something rise up from his chest, a childish pride

"Well, you know what would be really cool?"Kakashi asked with an eye smile "If you give me back my wallet, that is" He said eliciting a look of guilt from the kid, Kakashi just chuckled and took his wallet from the kid's hand

"Don't worry kid, I'm not angry" Kakashi said to which the child just keep looking at the ground guiltily "So, I forgive you" Kakashi said adding in the last part just to please the child, which he visibly did. The child relaxed and looked at Kakashi still with awe "Mister, Mister! Can you teach me to be a ninja!? I want to scare people and protect myself and stuff like you ninja!" The child said while he did gestures of fighting with excitement while Kakashi sweat-dropped, being reminded of a blonde with the same attitude at his youth
