34 Team 7 returns!

Another couple weeks went by in a flash

Tenshi optimized his machine design and was currently installing a machine with two heads in Aino's bakery, sighing, "Only 10,000 Ryo… I'm like a slave." Aino laughed by the side, "Hurry up and work, sissy! I even prepared some desserts for when you're finished! Specially made!"

Tenshi looked at her asking suspiciously "Shouldn't be…" Aino held her hips and laughed at the sky, "Yes, you are correct! They are coffee flavored desserts!" Tenshi's eyes lit up and he worked on the machine quickly.

Afterwards

Tenshi sat with Aino and her husband, they also had a new kid, a little boy. He was 4 years old.

Tenshi ate the coffee flavored pastries happily, saying "I thought it would be Tiramisu." Aino frowned and her husband asked curiously "Tiramisu?" Tenshi wiped his fingers and explained "A coffee dessert. It has soft cookies dipped in coffee at the bottom layer, then a layer of cream, then another layer of cookies, then more cream and the top is coated in a chocolate and coffee powder."

The man's eyes lit up and Aino's eyeballs turned into Ryo signs. The man asked excitedly "How do you make it?!" Tenshi paused and looked shifty as though a concubine who was plotting something nefarious, he rubbed his fingers together and Aino rolled her eyes, saying angrily "You sissy! You're ruthless! We'll supply the Cafe with Tiramisu everyday!"

Tenshi opened his mouth and Aino added with gritted teeth, full of hate, "For free!" Tenshi cackled and explained the method to make the Tiramisu to her husband as she sat there, grinding her teeth in anger.

It was as though someone was cutting the flesh off her body!

How uncomfortable!

This damn profiteer! She had to get him back!

Tenshi also added the way to make the cookies which were lady fingers. If it was anything else, it wouldn't taste right! Aino's husband got to work immediately saying sternly, "Aino, take care of the kids and then come help me. Immediately."

Aino blushed uncontrollably, "Yes, sir~!" the man snorted and got to work as Tenshi left.

He walked back to the Cafe and opened the doors, it was still early, he woke up extra early to install the coffee machine.

Mocha raised her head and meowed, patting her chest as though to say 'With me here, there were no issues.' Tenshi rubbed her head and chuckled, "I think maybe you just wanted some Lon Lon Milk, right?" Mocha licked her lips and looked shifty, meowing slowly.

Tenshi picked her up and put her on the counter, grinning full of teeth. Mocha bore her fangs and Tenshi opened his mouth as Mocha did the same. He looked at her teeth and scratched behind her ears, smiling gently.

Mocha leaned into him, purring.

Tenshi poured her a bowl of warm milk, kissing her on the head before going to open the doors for the day. Mocha licked the milk happily, what was better than this!

Hm.

Maybe some fish!

The day went along until Kakashi and Team 7 came back.

Tenshi looked over and jumped in shock, "Haku?!" Haku was tightly bound, smiling gently, "Angel-san." Tenshi's soul nearly jumped out as he shushed him. Naruto scratched his head, "Angel? That's what 'Tenshi' is, right?"

Sakura nodded and Sasuke looked at the wall behind Tenshi deeply, staring at the picture of Tenshi with a girl, feeling complicated inside.

Sasuke looked at Tenshi and sighed, perhaps I treated you too harshly…

Tenshi ignored them as Kakashi held up Haku and a feather, looking at Tenshi strangely. Tenshi touched his nose and said "We'll talk about this later… How was the mission? Also where's that Zabuza fellow?" Haku looked sad and Kakashi sighed, "He died." Tenshi was stunned and said in shock "Even after the-" he paused as Kakashi held up Haku.

Tenshi understood before sighing sadly, "It's a shame." shaking his head. He served them all, asking Haku, "Would you like something?" Haku looked at the coffee in confusion "What?"

Tenshi looked at him through the cracks in his eyes before being surprised and chuckling "Tough customer… I don't have this type of thing yet… Shouldn't be a problem though… Trash Fox-chan, go get me a bag of ice."

He put 500 Ryo on the counter and Naruto took it before asking suspiciously "Do I have to pay in the future?" Tenshi's lips twitched and he retorted, "You can take out the garbage and I'll send Edgelord-chan." Naruto ran out after hearing garbage as Kakashi looked at Sasuke, who was brooding with his fingers intertwined over a cup of Espresso.

Edgelord indeed…

Tenshi made Kakashi's coffee and smiled, "You don't know, I've been having to close later and later around here. I was thinking about putting in a section for lottery machines." Kakashi sipped the coffee, asking "Oh? Like a casino?"

Tenshi nodded and turned, "Tanaka, the usual? No problem." as he made another coffee, replying "Sort of. Just basic slots that print tickets and I'll pay them out at the counter. Very technical… But I managed to make a grinder while you were gone, so the skies the limit!"

Kakashi sighed, "You sure are strange. What sort of cafe has slot machines?" Tenshi replied "In vegas even the bathrooms have them." Kakashi asked strangely "Where?" Tenshi replied "What? Anyway, like I was telling Guy, it would be at the back in a special room, probably around 10-12 of them. Apparently, Lee had a serious gambling problem."

Tenshi laughed and served Tanaka, adding "Where did he even get that problem? I don't get it, but the kid is funny! I heard he was signing up for the Chuunin exams 7 days from now."

Kakashi nodded and sipped his coffee, replying "I was gonna sign these little rats up too. Speaking of which, did you see any Sand Ninja walking around?" Tenshi tilted his head and called out, "Anbu-chan, are the Sand Ninja in town?"

The Female Anbu ninja looked over and tilted her head, "Should be. I saw some Sand Genin walking around this morning." Teuchi rubbed his chin, "Sand Ninja… huh? Maybe the Sand Village has special ingredients?"

Tatsumaki was reading nearby, waving her hand, "I've been there for Iguchi's shop. Went to buy some gold… They don't have much of anything there." Everyone looked over as she explained with a sigh, "That place is so poor, the kids look like they're starving. I was really worried about them."

Kakashi nodded and added, "Their Daimyo has no money either. Sand Village is the poorest of the 5 Great Ninja Villages… That we know of, the Mist is still closed off." Haku added gently, "Actually, the Mist is doing well. Zabuza-san said that they weren't poor, they just had cruel policies. The Sand Village is extremely poor, they don't even have a stable water source."

Sakura was dumbfounded, "How do they survive?!" Sasuke sighed, "Probably sheer will…" Tenshi's lips twitched, this guy… whenever he says something it's a big deal!

Naruto came back with the ice and said "Can I keep the change?" Tenshi smiled gently, nodding as he tapped the counter.

Naruto put the bag on the counter and then Tenshi pinched the corner with a napkin, cutting the bag open with a knife.

He took a jar and scooped the ice into it before swirling the extra coffee and putting it inside. Tenshi shook the jar and walked to the fridge, pouring Lon Lon Milk inside, shaking it some more.

He took off the lid and pushed it in front of Haku, smiling softly, "Special Cold Coffee." Haku looked at Kakashi, who rolled his eyes, freeing one hand.

Haku held the jar and took a sip before smiling happily, "Delicious!" then he swirled the coffee with his chakra, the jar getting frosty. Tenshi tilted his head in disbelief, Kakashi explained simply "Ice Blood Limit."

Tenshi cracked a rag in the air like a whip, looking at Haku angrily "I used 500 Ryo to make you a cold coffee and you could've just cooled it in an instant!? Am I a joke to you!?" Haku was dumbfounded, replying in a flustered innocent tone, "But- I… I didn't know…" Tenshi sighed and shook his head, saying gently, "It's okay, it'll come out of your paycheck…"

Kakashi had big question marks over his head and Haku asked, "You were serious?" Tenshi looked at him in confusion, "Of course, why would I joke with you… But you have to wear something a little more manly, I can barely tell your gender… Unless, you wanna be a woman? This works too."

Haku frowned tightly, "I'm a boy. I don't wanna be a woman!" Tenshi sighed, "What a shame…" he turned to Sakura, saying sincerely "Are you sure you wanna be a ninja? I have a job for you here." Sakura frowned in confusion, "I'm a ninja. I don't wanna be a worker!"

Tenshi sighed and looked at Sasuke, who had a look of 'My heart is blacker than the coffee I drink from, my purpose is the abyss. My goal is destruction, I live in the darkness, for I am chaos' all over his face.

Originally, Tenshi was going to ask if he wanted to become a girl and work here but… Forget it, he would scare away customers.

As for Naruto, he didn't even look at him…

Tenshi looked at Kakashi and opened his mouth, but Kakashi said firmly "No." Tenshi sighed and cleaned the cups, grumbling softly.
