Author's note: Read until the end. I am sure you will more or less understand Kyudo's decision. Also, I tried to portray the POVs based on the characters.

----The Night of the Graduation ---
-----------Root 23 POV----
CLICK
With the chakra string, the lock was opened as I entered the room, my chakra coating my feet to numb the noise.
I looked around to see the room filled with papers on business proposals, expansion and profits lists.
POOF
With one dispersal of Paralytic, even a Jonin will be numb and useless for a minute. Much less my target.
I walked to the bed to see the current manager of this business. After confirmation.
SLASH.
I decapitated him. Also, I left the documents stating him to be a traitor to the land of fire and Konoha, using money and political power to profit from war.
There will be consequences for actions committed.
Root Submission to 23- Completed
WHOOSH
One flicker later, I am on the roof taking in the cold moonlight. I noticed 44 already waiting to complete his task. I signalled to him, 'Time to punish the major culprit.'
I got a nod as we made headway toward the primary mission.
WHOOSH
WHOOSH
WHOOSH
WHOOSH
Each step, I am joined by the rest of the root numbers. We are the lowest at the root, made for grunt work like this. Some were recruited after extensive background checks from Danzo-sama, like me, and were raised in the roots based on the potential shown as a baby.
We are the Roots of the root that give nutrients to the noble tree of Konoha.
WHOOSH
I watched the present Tora appear to be the head of the team, leading us to join the other team.
The blanks and animals are the true elite, going after tasks crucial for protecting Konoha- Sabotage, Noble cleansing, Control of the black market, Assassinations, etc.
I felt excitement at the task but chided myself.
Emotions impede rational decisions.
A rational shinobi is a dangerous shinobi.
TICK
I watched as the small tick sound emitted from Tora, signalling to stop. We stopped in complete silence for the second team to arrive.
"Well, Well. What a wonderful welcome Fu-san."
THUCK
I felt a burst of irritation at the sudden sound but stopped myself from seeing the No.94, a recruit who had been a complete whirlwind in the silence of root. Like this calling Tora by his name.
He always shows his emotions, rejects missions that go against his morals, and has complete disrespect for his superiors. A faulty weapon, a normal shinobi in light, parading in the dark. Hmm, I've seen dozens of such shinobi in root. The fate is only one either they realise the fault of emotions or die because of the weakness.
WHOOSH
WHOOSH
WHOOSH
As I followed him inside, I could understand Danzo-sama's reasoning. The same 94 is like a cold weapon, completely mowing his way through the darkness, killing everyone in each room. His chakra strings unlocking the doors, while he went in and out in a second.
Not even a hint of sound or a drop of blood came out of his victims.
Not from the decapitated heads left on the beds, whose flesh wounds were sealed as he cut, not even leaving a scent of blood or burnt smell of cauterization. Such perfection in details and the ease he went for one and another.
No wonder, He was chosen to give the intro to the Newbies. Even his many missions make sense. He killed dozens each in different rooms in minutes without leaving a single clue. Of course, root resources like smell erasers are a thing, but everyone has them. He is the first I saw to master them in such a brief span.
In only 6 months of training and a further 6 months of missions, he became a skilled root agent.
CLANG
Of course, he has his weaknesses. He stopped us from killing the prisoners. Each of them is a witness to us.
"No worries, Fu-san. I released some sleep inducers before I came here. Besides, we are here to end the flesh games. Not kill the victims or participants."
I heard Tora reply, "Not all participants are victims."
Pointing at the prisoner's head, "Yes, that's why you are here. Tora, please rape them."
I made a mistake. It was a mistake because I felt laughter coming to me.
Such nonsense. I killed the inconvenience like laughter in a second. Still, I am impressed that Fu-sama didn't even blink at the joke. Such control over his emotions is incredible. Worthy of taking up the Tora mask.
WHIRL
Under the silent night, Tora weaved his custom Hand Sign.
Impressive, Custom Handsigns are a symbol of clan heritage or exceptional talent.
"Mind-Body disruption: Deep Dive Jutsu."
I remembered the info package, the Mind-body disruption, a Yamanaka jutsu that works on the principle of disrupting the mind and body connection by injecting high yin-Chakra.
Without the support of the body and its fail-safes, the Mind is a toy to be played with by the caster.
"Money seeker. Trafficker. Rapist. Chunin level combatant,"
SLASH
I watched as the head fell to the ground. So much for chunin. With a guard down and without sufficient skills, the strength is a waste. Pathetic.
Quite unlike us, Root, where even a genin is honed among blood and death, where every single fibre of being is used to accomplish our aim.
"The next one. All right newbies, listen here. Normally, based on the laws, we should have captured him and sent him to prison to make him an example. But not here, it is because of the need to protect the secrecy of root. We exist to protect Konoha from the dark, kill where others can't, and even if you die, your tasks and accomplishments will not be listed."
As they should, we are the root. The darkness of Konoha, feeding the noble tree.
"Good with this. Everyone except the victims is dead. The first witnesses will be the Victims, serving as our messengers to convey the repercussions of flesh games leading to brutal revenge. The 2-acre fighting ring filled with hundreds of bodies that were slaughtered in their beds. The underlying message is that breaking the law results in death.
Root primary mission 1- Erasure of flesh completed.
WHOOSH
WHOOSH
WHOOSH
--

I, along with Tora and 94, stayed behind to watch the completion, as per procedures to ensure there were no complications.
If there are some, eliminate them with extreme prejudice.
"AHHHH! HELP, somebody is dead."
It started with a single scream from the janitor. Soon, the rest spread.
"OH, NOW HERE TOO."
"KAMI, Save us."
"AHHH."
"NOOOO."
We watched as the Daimyo's guards came. Soon the regular shinobi corps appeared to start the investigation as the bodies were brought out.
Tora nodded and said, "The primary mission is done. 94, 44, 23, blank, Hawk. Stay."
WHOOSH
WHOOSH
I watched as the rest dispersed while I waited for my orders.
"The major culprit behind the flesh games and the smuggling ring is the fire noble- Kurisu Tadzin. We are on a mission to eliminate him. If you die, you will be announced as a traitor, but accomplish the mission even if it means death."
Yes, if he escapes, then he can find legal security from Hokage for the attack. And Hokage will respond adequately as per laws. A pity the fire daimyo is malleable to his sister, so he won't punish her husband.
I heard 94 snorts at that. Not understanding what he found to be wrong with Tora's objectives.
-

-----------Fire capital, Tazin residence--------
I watched as 94 kept his pinkie on the floor to expand his sensing range. A style of sensing left by an honourable Second. To ensure combat ability by using pinkie, to respond to any sudden hostiles.
I watched in silence, knowing that 94 is burning chakra, mostly his physical energy, to disperse his mental energy to sense everything under his range.
"A jonin, 2 chunin and 5 genin are in there. One genin and the 2 chunin are sleeping in the northwest corner. Since we didn't have any reports of any leaf shinobi accepting guard missions here, then we are sure they are from other villages or mercenaries. By the way, the important thing to note is that the join and remaining genin are surrounding Kurisu's main bedroom. Quite the competent formation" "
No twitching, no irritation. Plain cold taking in of the circumstance that commands us to prepare for death and combat. The essence of root.
Tora gave the orders, "94 and 23. You kill the sleeping shinobi. We will set the trap for Jonin and the remaining shinobi, in case things go sideways for you."
WHOOSH
WHOOSH
In a minute, we infiltrated the room of the sleeping shinobi. Based on the uniform, I can see that they are Iwa. Good.
If it was a movie that is shown to the public, then there would be lucky circumstances for the victims like suddenly waking up or the chunin sensing us or something.
SLASH
SLASH
As if we trained to conceal our chakra and make it look less noticeable to the sensors, much less normal shinobi.
With a nod to 94, we flickered back to meet up with Tora on the rooftop of Kurisu's bedroom.
Time for the arduous task of the night. It's a pity these Iwa are so diligent in their guard formation. Front attack it is then. I guess I am on task to eliminate all witnesses, like always.
"Let me do the greeting."
I watched as the 5-foot body frame of 94 walked forward. The red lines of his armour lit up, spreading slowly to his arms as he waved the signs.
I remember the info pack about it.
A personal investment of 94, using his wealth, to craft a chakra metal armour, with fuinjutsu to make special pathways for his Fire chakra, based on his medical knowledge of his chakra paths which complement his fire nature chakra.
An invention that is the property of the root that must be pried from his corpse upon his death. After all, Danzo-sama invested the full force of his resources in making this. Even involving Orochimaru-sama.
Such masterful use of Fire Nature transformation, Medic ninjutsu and Fuinjutsu. Three disciplines are both difficult to learn, much less used. But, 94 is doing just that.
WHIRL
"Fire Style: Great Fireball."
BOOOOOOOOOM
BOOM
BOX
I watched as the giant fireball descended on the room like a firestorm and could hear the screams of Genin.
I coated myself with my chakra and entered the room.
"AH---"
I killed the idiot screaming in burns.
So pathetic, screaming from a few third-degree burns.
"Fire Style: Severing Flames."
I watched as 94 used his tanto to send his fire jutsu to cut up another genin.
CLANG
CLANG
CLANG
I watched Tora and Hawk drag the Jonin outside the room for their fight. Good time to kill the outnumbered genin.

We watched as 94 threw the documents showing Kurisu's betrayal into the dying down fire that had consumed the body of Kurisu.
I distinctly heard Tora ending his post-mission workup, ".... with that Blank has left traces to show that Iwa is the one responsible for the murder. We can expect an increase in war funds from Fire Daimyo."
"Disperse."
Main Mission 2 - Eliminate Kurisu completed.

-------------Root Base, Konoha----
It was a long time of travelling and later we returned to Root base.
"Good, you may return to the shadows. 94, you can stay."
With a nod, we complied with Danzo-sama's orders and drifted back to the comforting shadows. While the standing 94 is left with Danzo-sama.
"So, Kyudo, how are the prospects of the Armour being mass-produced or improved?"
SIGH
------94/ Kyudo Kirito's pov-----
SIGH.
"Danzo-san, I told you this already. We can't do anything more to improve the Armour production without improving the metals. But considering the amount of Chakra metal needed for the Armour, it is not feasible for mass production. "
I could feel the cracks that needed to be repaired just from the chunin level of the chakra that went through it.
Nope, this thing is a stop-gap safety measure to have a combat increase for wealthy prodigies to survive their growth period. Namely towards me.
"Besides, how many shinobi are out there that can be proficient in 3 disciplines?"
Danzo gave a small reply of, "54."
But he didn't stop there, "If only two disciplines are considered, there are 594 shinobi. Most of them are in the Medic and Fuin corps. The rest scattered in Anbu and Root. Of which, 500 are proficient transformation in their element."
I guess everyone tries for nature transformation. Then again, not everyone, considering the large 30,000 shinobi forces, the number is very low. Or maybe not. After all, 20,000 of them are cannon fodder genin.
CLANG
"If needed, they will change their focus to the third discipline rather than work for the second chakra nature."
I sighed and said, " the materials are fragile for Jonin and higher level. Too costly to be used for Genin, maybe it is alright for the geniuses you keep in the dark to wear them. It is an excellent investment."
I could feel the emotionless gazes of the root agents in the shadows, which would kill me with one nod from this guy. Fuck, If I don't know any better, I would have worshipped this Danzo's feet like them. Think of him as the true protector of Konoha, a martyr in the making.
Danzo only nodded after thinking for a second and said, "Is it possible to add more chakra natures to the armour?"
I rolled my eyes and answered, "Yes, but the user dies. The only reason fire worked for me is because my innate chakra nature is fire. So, there was no trouble in attaching and maintaining the pseudo fire chakra pathways of the armour with my chakra paths. Say, if I out water, then I will blow up."
Danzo just gave a short, "You can go."
"That's it. I was expecting more of a lecture about being the perfect shinobi, especially considering my stunt at the graduation yesterday."
Danzo looked at me with a severe gaze as he said, "I know about your tantrum, but it doesn't matter. You are serving your village properly here, rather I am troubled by your insistent need to leave witnesses."
I felt a headache for him. "They are not witnesses if they saw nothing."
All I got was a snort as he disappeared. With him, the ever-present robotic eyes followed him.
Wonderful, I don't know if it is true, but until it is proven otherwise, my so-called rebellious action is not even a problem for him. Whom am I kidding? He is pissed off.
I can already see him making plans that will tempt me or shake me enough to change my mindset. Frankly, I want to run away from Konoha, but it is just not that easy. Other than that, I spent 9 years of my life here. I already committed a dozen murders that night alone. I guess, I invested too much as Konoha shinobi to not be anything than loyal. A fact that Danzo is thrilled about and subtly reminds me of every time.
Frankly, if I find Tobirama in the future, I want to break his skull open to see how his brain works. As far as I know, Danzo tries his best to emulate his thinking.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
---------Hokage's office--------
---------The morning after the Root mission----------
"You know that stunt you pulled at your batch's graduation has made quite the people chew my ear off. Mostly my sons who are making me do insane with their combined chattering at home."
I just smirked as I moved my white pawn to kill the rook he left as bait. "Well, what did you say to them in response?"
[Author's note: I don't know shogi. So, I used Chess, so please understand folks.]
"That you have your path to follow."
"Yes, I do."
I can feel a judging gaze at my sarcastic response. "You are the one who told me I have to serve," I can't help but say. I am serving to the best of my limits. Sorry if I am reserving a few days of normalcy among my nights filled with blood and death."
----Memories of a year back----
THUCK
Normally, I would have thought this to be quite rude. Slamming the door like that and entering the Hokage's office. No, my mind would be terrified and go into scary scenarios from there, but my angry emotions didn't care.
"Old man, I am asking you, did you know Danzo is going to pull that stunt on me?"
The old man just gave a small puff of smoke, "In that specific manner, No. But I knew he was testing you."
I was pissed and felt stupid about the matter because I felt betrayed. I asked him, "Why? , If you were against it, then you could have told me back the first time I wanted to continue in the academy."
"BECAUSE I MADE A MISTAKE."
I stopped in track because that was serious. As he continued, I watched him sigh in exhaustion. I just felt like it was nice when you said that even prodigies are human. I felt Konoha has reached a stage where it doesn't need to keep sending children into war. Kakashi itself was something I was against."
"So, what changed?"
He sighed and said, "Kirigakure has mobilized. Combat has already been ignited there. Kusagakure has turned its back on us. Takigakure has announced itself as neutral. Amegakure declared war along with every small ninja village I can name. In the land of fire, nobles stuffed with wine and money are doing whatever they want, hiring outside shinobi despite knowing it is against the Wartime law. Nobles who are family members of the Daimyo and also are people I knew, and some of them are my friends.'
POOF
I watched as he kept taking in more smoke, "So, here we are- Konoha is all alone while at war with the world and with corrupted nobles destroying its motherland. So, I am sorry little Kyudo. War and bloodshed are inevitable to your generation."
--------------Present--------------------------
He puffed a smoke from his pipe again, giving me a déjà vu. "So, little Kyudo. I thought you were all right about war. What does stunt yesterday in the academy mean?"
I watched as he took away my queen with his pawn. Making me itch. I multitasked by answering him and looking at the board, " many times, I don't see myself as a target in the war as a prodigy. Give me time, I will be a Jonin and be out in the meat grinder. Considering how much I am pushed every night, YAWN, I can see myself achieving that even before the original plan."
Say what you want, Danzo is good at teaching skills like multitasking, tracking, assassination, psychology, etc.
So, I can say with these points in mind, it is without stupid to throw child prodigies into war. I asked him, "Seriously old man, think about Kakashi's case."
For all the image and morale the early promotion generated, it had another end.
Kakashi had become an open target.
Everyone and their mothers sent assassins after him.
Come on, it became so much worse that Minato was pulled from the war front to become his sensei and protector. The Hokage has no choice, everyone else assigned to the same team just dies or betrays.
Fuck, the messed up thing is some of his teammates even betrayed him for various reasons. I know because I had to hunt them down as part of Root. What can I say, normal Anbu can't go for active Konoha shinobi without evidence. But, Root can do whatever we want as long as we don't harm the innocents in Hokage's mind.
What can I say? It is a perk of doing the messiest and most bloody missions that leave most of the normal shinobi requiring a Yamanaka visit. For a Root, it is a Tuesday routine. Kill the traitors and create evidence of their betrayal or enemy attack.
"Sigh! You are right. I had been hasty and thinking too well of the world at large. A flaw of mine."
I nodded at that." A flaw that Danzo-san fills. Well, more like enforce his flaw -all logic, fuck emotions concept on you."
Hiruzen gave a sad smile as he said, "My friend, despite all his smartness and mastery of the human mind, is broken by the world."
"Yeah, and he tries to break others. I only think it is only a matter of time before he decides he knows better than you."
Hiruzen grew serious as my words grew treasonous. He bluntly replied, "He thinks that way since we were children, but it doesn't mean he will become a traitor. Do you ever look at his body? That resulted from him saving me from Kirigakure during the first shinobi war. His wife and unborn child were captured and broken in front of him for his constant support of me. Even among many other atrocities he experienced, he never betrayed Konoha and me."
He never betrayed Konoha. Not you. That is what I want to say, but I can't. Not when he is drowning the world with his chakra and killing intent. I couldn't even blink my eye to show the Anbu sign for 'Point taken'.
Fuck, I might have gotten far this time.
KNOCK KNOCK
Just like that, we are back to playing chess. Alright, I tell you this, Naruto is a messed-up world. After experiencing it, 100% is not recommended. You can choose any other fantasy world than this.
"Enter."
Under Hiruzen's command, the visitor entered. Speaking of the death, it appears. Weird saying, I know. But what can I say, I am a shinobi here?
"Team 7 is here for its first mission, Hokage-sama", so entered the cursed team of this world.
"Good to meet and see you. I have just finished giving a stern lecture to little Kyudo here."
You mean to scare the shit out of me with K.I. and remind me he is the military dictator of Konoha? Yes, we've been there and done that.
I had Obito come to me while saying, "Listen Kyudo. People are gossiping however they want, saying that you are a coward trying to fail graduation wanted. That you are a spoiled brat who grew an enormous head from money. That you are sissy for trying to go into medic-nin."
Rin shouted from aside, stopping Obito's words of concern/insults, "Are calling me a sissy, Obito?"
I feel amused seeing them trying to act normal in front of me. It is such a normal thing I want a bit more. To make sure I don't forget myself and peace in the bloody darkness of Root and War. More, a self-imposed reward for myself, at least until I reach Jonin. I just want some sanity.
I gave a nod to Kakashi, who did the same in reply. Sanity saved.
CLAP CLAP
I turned to see Minato telling us, "Alright kids, we got our first mission. Kyudo-kun, you can join us for lunch."
"Sure, Bye-bye Old man."
I got a half-assed wave from him. Someone is grumpy for listening to the truth.
I want to join them. Their first D-rank is not missing for me. I am thankful that I have a camera stored in my sealed scroll. Standard Root equipment.
As for the funding for all these, the Source is unknown. That is final.
If you poke this rule, your dead body will become evidence of a retaliation mission.
Well, Danzo is all about never wasting resources.
All dead bodies, including the root agents, are given to Orochimaru.
-----------------A few hours later--------------------
FLASH
FLASH
FLASH
FLASH
The camera never stopped as the trio of genin scooped up dog shit, pissed and spewed vomit in the Inuzuka kennel. Hmm, not a trio, but a duo of Genin and one Chunin.
"You goofball, fucking do your work."
"But it smells awful."
"You think my nose doesn't work?"
"Just give me your mask."
BAM
One punch from Kakashi later, Obito, is in a pile of shit. That was a deliberate from Kakashi. I guess Kakashi is finally loosening up.
I know Because I had to observe his profile. Yep, He was a prospective root agent, because he was a fucked up mess. And Danzo is best at making a fucked up mess become a functional shinobi. Nothing more. Nothing less.
"You know, you can stop that for a second and help them right."
I gave a look to Minato, which explained my thoughts on that stupid advice.
(ㆆ_ㆆ)
I sat down beside him as he handed me the Ramen bowls. This is not what I was expecting when I was asked for lunch.
SLURP SLURP
"So, the old man did a good solid for Kakashi by giving him good teammates. Rin and Obito are the kind that are easy to form proper relations with. Hmm! Despite his blindside to his emotions, he is good at them."
Just like Danzo is good at minds and trauma. Both traits had followed into Orochimaru, a completely mixed bag. Trust me. In my time as a root, I saw Orochimaru changing the emotionless agents into his worshippers on a single mission.
However, by the grace of Danzo, they were kicked out with a secrecy seal or given nightmare missions.
I heard Minato's sigh just before his words, "Because he is good at emotions, Hokage-sama is emotional most of the time. And yearns for happiness and peace for Konoha. That is his will of fire."
I nodded to show my agreement with Minato's point.
"Little Kyudo,How's the wind nature transformation going?"
"I got a 2 mm cut on a leaf. What do you think?"
All I got is a chuckle from the asshole, who complete wind nature mastery in a year. That and some free advice, "A disaster. Just make your Chakra sharp rather than energetic. Making your sharp is needed to allow the chakra to become wind."
"Yeah, yeah. It's just that my innate chakra nature is fire, which makes my chakra energetic. Ready to burn."
This might seem to be a normal conversation between us, but a freakier kind of conversation is going on. AI, a little help here in translation for kids.
[ Minato: twitch of index finger
"How are you doing, junior?"]
[Host: A circle of chopsticks in a bowl and a slurp of noodles.
"I am doing fine, Senpai. Been missing you in Root."]
[Minato: Adjust his headband.
"It's good you got the hang of this sign language. So Intelligent to be so fast."]
[Host: Burp
"Thanks."]
I cheated with AI. Just like I cheated with Root, Anbu, and Konoha shinobi sign languages.
SIGH!
Such is the messed up life I am leading. I know more sign languages than the languages I speak.
[ Minato: Silent Fart
"Report on the root"]
[Host: Adjust the pants and smirk with a lonely face.
"I am the only one left as watcher/controller on the post-mission orgy. So much for Danzo-san's theory of turning sex into a common thing. It feels stupid to punish roots for enjoying sex or forming emotions when he orders them to have sex.]
[Minato: A smack on the knee
"Get serious."]
[Host: Burp thrice. Hiccup twice. kick a stone away. Adjust your seat. Curse.
"I am serious. Ever since Dan-san left root, and you not being there, everyone seems to look at me as the sex target to attain. Fuck, the moment I hit puberty, I am out of this fucked up place. Otherwise, I am not sure my pelvis will remain safe. Every single one is fucking, and I can feel their hungry eyes waiting for me to hit puberty."]
[Minato: HAHAHAHAAHHAHA
"HAHAHAHAAHHAHA"]
[Host: Break the chopsticks after eating the entire bowl.
"Shut up, I am still surprised you were not jumped on by them. Are you a virgin? "]
[Minato: Point at the tomato. And he breaks his chopsticks.
"Kushina. She was possessive ever since we fell in love as kids. If I stray, she breaks me."]
Feeling the sun-like chakra entering my sensing range, I understand my fellow sensors' logic and emotions. Seems like Kushina is here to meet Minato's team. Though, I have a feeling she will get along with Obito well.
Time to reply to his point.
[ Host: Nod.
"Ok, fair point."]
[Minato: Open a fresh bowl. Deadly Silent Fart.
"Enough jokes. REPORT ON ROOT.]
[Host: Spit on the ground. Bring a single noodle strand up and let it fall to the ground. Hiccup twice. Burp twice. Ask for a bowl and accidentally let the empty one fall.
"Fu replaced you as Tora and is going into the stage of Danzo=Konoha. Orochimaru and Danzo are collaborating more and more against Kumo. Still no sign of Danzo ordering missions involving harm to innocent or anything crossing Hokage's moral limit. Besides, Danzo is good like that. He won't leave a clue to me, knowing how rebellious I am. You are the last known case of being ordered to wipe out multiple Iwa villages to break Iwa supply chains. Considering the shit-storm you raised from Tattling to Hokage, he is closing pack."]
[Minato: Steal the chicken nuggets from Host.
"So, did you inform the Hokage?]
[Host: Roll eyes.
"Duh! I did. But he still trusts his teammate and his word. Danzo thinks of emotions as a weakness and operates on logic. If logic is the only category, then even genocides and mass slaughters are acceptable."]
[ Minato: Want more ramen?
" You got to agree with some of his logic. The more sacrifices one commits to his village, the greater the loyalty he will have. Because turning your back on the village means turning all the sacrifices into nonsense. Those who can do such things are madmen. "]
Sigh! It is a logic I have to agree on. Trust me, only when you kill for your country as shinobi, does the loyalty to it become stability. That, along with the people living in it, waiting for you back home.
"Hey! You are eating ramen without me. No fair, Minato."
I watched as Red Whirlwind snatched the remaining Ramen bowls in record time. That is saying something since I saw some absurd records in Root.
SLURP
SLURP
And so the conversation halted, but continued at the same time.
"So, how's it going Kyudo? I heard you failed your exams. It's fine. You take it another time."
I just smiled at her awkward attempts to cheer me up. Blunt to the last letter.
Unfortunately, there is an idiot who doesn't understand this and responds without thinking.
"Hey Sensei,Who's the Tomato head?"
BAM
BAM
BAM
"Granny. save me."
I smiled as Kushina kept smacking on the back of Obito's head while chasing him around. I am sure Kakashi is enjoying this the most. According to Minato-senpai's stories, Kakashi used to be the one in Obito's current place before the team formed.
"NOO."
"Shut up, Kid. You are going to call me Nee-sama or Sensei. Do you get it?"
BAM
"Yes."
Watching them be so similar is messed up. They are like a mother and son, considering their similarities. It is messed up because I know Obito will one day be the guy to kill Kushina and Minato.

Author's note: There you go, people. I had my inspiration burning and before I knew it; I wrote this long chapter.
I hope the story connected well for you and the characters are not awkward. Please send your feedback with reviews and comments.
P.S.-- Don't search for logic among the sign language. I made it up randomly so that it felt funny. Though some iconic signs are with thought.
