Let the Spree Begin

Sasuke, Naruto, and Sakura along with Kakashi stood in front of the mission-nin, the receptionist smiled at their arrival.

"Suika-San, is there any C-Rank missions available at the moment"

Suika had shoulder length blondish hair and black pupiless eyes with brown eyebrows. She has ribbons shaped into a flower on the left side of her head. She wore a lavender blouse with puffed sleeves and a violet skirt.

"There is Hatake-Sama... But, are you sure about this?"

Suiko asked, her tone containing a tinge of worry. That was understandable as the trio was fresh out of the Academy, a C-Rank mission from the get-go was a bit of a stretch.

"Don't worry, just give me the mission"

Kakashi smiled, reassuring that it was alll going to go smoothly, The receptionist nodded and pulled a scroll which was under the desk.

Kakashi took the scroll and read it's contents, he nodded to himself, the difficulty of the mission was perfect for them.

"Thank you for your assistance, Suiko-San"

***

Naruto and Sasuke along with Kakashi was waiting at the entrance of Konoha, waiting for Sakura who has yet to arrive.

The pink-haired girl ran with all her might to reach just in time, she panted and supported his upper body as she kept her palm on her kees.

"Hufff... Hufff... Sorry, I was just saying goodbye to paren-"

Sakura shut her mouth as she noticed the trio was giving her a deadpan expression. It sure did feel wierd to be the only person having parents in the team.

"Let's go... Our destination is the Ryo town in the Rice Paddy Village, esitimated time to arrive is 1 hour, if we don't take breaks in between we can reach under 45 minutes"

Kakashi parkoured through the branches of the trees, the trio followed behind without uttering a word.

Sasuke pulled out a White mask with black, small horizontal markings under each eye from his back. He also removed his headband from his thigh and kept it inside the Ninja pouch.

Naruto also removed his headband and kept it aside. Kakashi too removed his headband and tied a black band over his forehead, he pulled the right side to cover his eye.

"Umm, why are you guys removing your headbands?"

"The more our enemies understimate us the better, and the headband just screams we are from the leaf, that would cause unwanted and attention and conflicts as we progress ahead"

Sakura nodded at Kakashi's explanation. The pink-haired girl followed her Sensei's instructions.

Team 7 traveled for half an hour without any breaks between, they reached at the borderlines of The Rice Paddy Village sooner than expected.

Sakura was sweating a bit from tiredness. Sasuke gazed at the beautiful scenery in front of him.

Light green grass and the perfect amount of sunshine reflecting off them made the view breathtaking.

"That's Ryo town right there. Our mission is to investigate and end the 'kidnapping' of teenage girls"

Kakashi said as he moved forward. The veteran Ninja was dead serious when he explained the contents of the mission.

'Kidnapping... Is it for their wild fantasies?'

Sasuke contemplated. It was a common thought that would pop into the mind first.

The Uchiha moved forward. They soon reached near the Town, their arrival was immediately informed to the head of the small town.

When they were close to the main areas of the village, they were circled by the citizens, whispers resounded through the people.

"Quiet"

An elderly woman emerged from the crowd, everyone went silent at the arrival of the head.

Kakashi pulled out his headband from his pouch and showed it to the elderly woman, her eyes went wide as she saw that.

"....Come with me"

The woman responded to his action after a long silence. Team 7 followed her and entered a traditional-style house.

"Please, take a seat"

The head of the town said as she sat down on the wooden floor. Sasuke and the others followed her words and took a seat.

"I'm the head of Ryo town, the name is Satomi... As you have been informed, the... Girls in our town are being kidnapped, my grandson Aki was the one to witness it"

Satomi said, her voice shaky. As the head of the town, she felt responsible for the kidnapping. The burden on her shoulders were weighting her down.

"Hmm... Can we meet your grandson, we want to hear it from him"

Satomi nodded. She called out her grandson's name. Soon, after a couple of seconds, a boy with slightly tanned skin and black hair entered the hallway.

He had bags under his eyes.

"Aki-san... If you would like to co-operate, please tell us the details of what happened"

The grandson's hollow eyes landed on Kakashi. He nodded before taking a seat beside Satomi.

"I-I was walking through the streets like usual, it was well past midnight... T-Thats when I heard a scream... I ran toward the source only to find-"

Aki covered his mouth, his eyes shedding tears. The boy had an urge to vomit but held it in.

"Emi... She had her abdomen ripped out right in front of my eyes... I-I couldn't do anything... I could not save her"

The boy broke down in tears at the end. Kakashi looked at his students, trying to find any emotion.

Sakura had her eyes wide, she shut her eyes and and looked away. Naruto and Sasuke just sat there, not showing any particular emotion. The latter's expression was hard to grasp as he had a mask covering his face.

But his Chakra flow was steady, showing that he was calm. Kakashi felt relieved that he didn't have to deal with kids with hero complexity.

Although he would have to talk with Sakura. But that was for another time.

"Well Aki, do you have any clue who the culprit was... and was there mutilple men or a single person"

Aki wiped his tears and pondered, he tried really hard and looked like he had reached a conclusion.

"There were 4-5 men... Tho I am not sure. As for the culprit... I think it was Kenji Imai, I am not really sure"

Kakashi nodded.

"What makes you this Kenji guy is the culprit?"

Sasuke asked, his voice was slightly altered because of the mask. The boy was taken aback but explained nonetheless.

"Well... The guy is over 7'0 tall and he is built like a bear... So it was pretty easy to figure out. He lives in the outskirts of our Village... Although he spends his entire day on the bar"

"Alright, thank you for your help, Aki and Satomi-San"

Kakashi and the trio exited the building. They asked for the directions toward the bar and arrived in front of the building.

Kakashi vanished and reappeared.

"Our guy is inside, well... Let me see how you handle this, my dear students"

"Wh-"

Sakura was cut off short as Sasuke handed her a kunai. She was startled, what was this for?

"Naruto, cut down the power supply and look out for anyone that comes out, make sure they're dead, you too Sakura... I'll make quick work and bring the guy"

"W-What do you mean Sasuke-kun!?"

"Look, if you wanna stick around, do what Sasuke says or just get out... We don't need dead weight on our team. You can barely throw a kunai let alone perform a Jutsu... We really don't need you"

Naruto stated as he neared the power supply that was on the bar's wall. Sasuke took out his Kunai and adjusted his mask.

'Oh... I didn't expect him to be so cold-hearted. Well, there is one except the bar owner and a bunch of Kenji's henchmens along with him inside'

Kakashi pulled out 8 Incense sticks and planted it on the ground. He prepared 8 graves beforehand for the poor souls.

"Time for a spree"

Sasuke muttered as he entered the bar. Everyone's attention in the hall went toward Sasuke.

The Uchiha noticed a giant-built man sitting with two women on his lap.

"Burp.... Ha~... What's a kid doing he-"

The lights suddenly went off, everyone grew confused.

Kenji turned his head toward the boy who previously stood there, only to find two crimson eyes looking right at him, he felt a chill run down his back as their eyes locked.

Suddenly, the pair of eyes vanished leaving only a narrow trail of red.

Sasuke took out his Kunai and slid one of his henchmen's throat without giving him a chance to scream.

He could feel blood spraying on his body. Moving stealthy, he cut down them one by one. Everyone fell, including the owner.

"What's happening?"

Kenji muttered, the two women in his lap suddenly disappeared. He felt something drop on his hand. It felt like water.

He licked it, the familiar taste of iron made his eyes widen. It was blood!

He had no time to react as his head was struck with something hard... Really really hard.

"Aurgh!"

With a low grunt, his body fell into the pool of blood on the floor. Sasuke tosseed away his Kunai and grabbed the man by his hair.

*Creak*

The door of the bar opened. Kakashi and the others looked at the entrance.

"What the…"

Sakura narrowed her eyes.

Blood flowed through the opening, the door opened to reveal a Sasuke bathed in blood dragging a large-built man.

Sakura ran toward a bush as her stomach twisted at the sight.

"Any damage?"

"No, I made sure to not leave even a scratch"

Sasuke replied to Naruto, the blonde summoned 10 clones to clean up the bar. Kakashi just stared at the duo... What was up with these kids? And was the really the son of his happy-go-Sensei Minato?

"S-Sasuke-kun?"

Sasuke's Scarlet eyes met with Sakura's emerald eyes. She couldn't even muster out the strength or courage to say anything else. Was Sasuke like this? A murderer?

"Kakashi, I'll make him spill the beans, you search up to find any useful information... And Sakura, make yourself useful and help Naruto"

"B-But there are dead bodies and b-bloo-"

"Fine, you just accompany Kakashi then"

Sasuke dragged the body toward the outskirts of the Village, he was heading towards Kenji's house.

'He could have atleast included "Sensei".... Sigh... Kids these days have no respect'

Kakashi kept his hands inside his pockets and went toward the town to investigate further.

"You coming, Sakura?"

"Huh? ...Yeah"

Sakura slowly folled behind, Kakashi glanced at kid and sighed... He sure was sighing a lot today.

"You see that Sakura.... That's how the Shinobi world works, we do the immoral everyday, no sense of justice is found... I ask you again, do you really want to be a Shinobi?"

"I... I don't know"

She fell at a loss for words.
