"Heeheehee! That's what I like to see..." whispered a drooling Jiraiya as he peeked into a hole in a wall. He was spying on the women's bathhouse... again. Obviously this was to further his "research", at least that's what he called it in front of Naruto and his friends.

It was slightly true, though. He wrote the ever-popular Make Out Paradise novels, and this sort of experience was just the thing he needed to really make his fictional ladies sizzle, "Ooh... that's nice..." he whispered, starting to write stuff down, "Oh that'll do nicely..." he said, nearly too distracted by the women to even write down his "research"

...

"Haah... hyah!" Saru shouted as he jumped from one roof to another. Along the way, he performed a spinning wheel kick, similar to Lee's signature Leaf Hurricane. He landed on the second roof with a monkey-like crouch, the used his bent knees to push himself upwards, performing a backflip kick.

"And the finisher!" he said after landing. All that time, the bo staff was out and ready, but moved in stance. Now though, he whipped it out in an arc, twisting his wrist so he could arc it twice, then arced two more times in the opposite direction, "Yaah...!" he said as he finished the combination by arcing the bo staff back, then over his head in a vertical strike. The staff clacked against the roof tiles, then was instantly brought back to stance.

"An excellent warm-up!" Saru said. He hadn't yet noticed that the Hokage's office window was in the next-door building.

"Saru!" Tsunade yelled gauntly out the window she'd opened instead of broken. "Come up here, ther's two people with a mission that needs tending to. And JIRAIYA, I know what's behind that wall because I USE THAT BATHROOM! Get your ass on something useful and stop pissing around with that... " she made a large dramatic quotes gesture. "Research of yours!"

Ayame's eyes got big at Lady Tsunade's words. "Wow iv never heard her talk like that" she whispered to Shiro covering her mouth with her hand

Shiro just Sighed and Laughed a bit......"Lady tsunade we will get to work on finding the third person.....we will then report back to you. " He started to walk out the door OH and your welcome for the Gifts!"

Ayame watched him leave before she bowed herself and ran after him. "Hey we could ask Sakura or someone" she said looking to him questioningly

"Don't be impertanent Shiro! Or I'll embarrass you the way I embarrass a Sannin!" Tsunade called after them as they departed. She looked back at the peeping ninja and smiled wickedly.
Shizune stifled a giggle and went back to taking notes, occasionally sparing Lady Tsunade a cast0eyed glance.

Jiraiya froze when he heard the shouting voice of Tsunade, "What the...?" he spoke up in surprise. Suddenly there was a sound of screaming girls from within the bathouse and at least a half-dozen young women wrapped in towels stampeded outside, "Perv!!!" they screamed.

"Aww Tsunade!" he screamed up at her office, "You just ruined my research! I hope your happy!" he said and pouted as he walked away in a slump, "May as well give Naruto some training. Wonder where the little squirt is, anyway?"

...

Saru stopped practicing when he heard the call of the Hokage, "Yes, Lady Hokage!" he said with a bow then did something that would probably scare the living daylights out of those in her office, "Hiiiiiyah!" he said, leaping from his roof and through the window of the office. Good thing Tsunade had moved when she did or he would have pummeled right into her. He landed in a monkey-like squat.

"Yes, ma'am?" he said, as if nothing strange had happened at all. Spirited little monkey-boy, wasn't he? Much like another certain knuckle headed ninja that everyone knew.

Tsunade grunted when Saru swung in through the window. "Well, your a bit late. Remain..." she could harldy bring herself to say it aloud. "remain here until they get back with or without their third party member and you can be the fourth."

Shizune twitched, thinking that no work was going to get done as long as Saru was here, although she was glad to see his youthfulness hadn't left him.

Saru groaned at his orders, "Aww but I hate sitting around!" he said, beginning to fidgetly bounce around already, "They probably just barely walked out the door! Can'tcha call 'em back in or something?" he complained, pointing to the door.

Saru hated doing nothing, especially if he was having to wait for something. He liked either training or being on a mission. Just wasting time in between was the worst. He was also proned to getting bored easily and start getting into crap he probably shouldn't be messing with, which was just what he was starting to do now in the Hokage's Office of all places.

"Shizune! Just give him something to file, something shiny, I don't care..." She put her hands over her face, even Naruto might better than this.

Shizune couldn't stifle laughter any longer and balanced on her stool cluthing her sides. She pulled out a key on a string, "This is all I've got."

Fuuyutsuki was getting extremely bored, wondering what might be in store for her if she were to wonder the training grounds a few moments. She peered around trees and upward, wondering if anyone were actually out and about other than her. Usually she held up inside.

Ayame looked around then grabbed Shiro and pulled him towards the mantion again. "I think we should return. Maybe Shizune found someone for us..." she said still walking and pulling him lightly.

Iyami noticed that Sakura wasn't coming over so she just kept walking. 'Hmm... maybe Lady Tsunade has a mission I can do' She said while heading for the Hokage's mansion. Iyami walked up the stairs to the Hokage's office and knocked. "Lady Hokage is there any missions I can do?" She said while opening the door.

Finally, Haku decided to visit the Hokage. He was bored and maybe Tsunade would give him a mission. He knocked on the door of her office, waiting to be let in.

"A key? I'm not a little kid!" said Saru as he approached Tsunade, "C'mon! What's taking so long?" funny he should ask that, considering it hasn't even been five minutes.

"This is boring..." he said, plopping on the floor and leaning against, "Why would they leave? Didn't you tell them I was coming?" he questioned. It was actually a valid question. Surely they didn't leave before Tsunade called for him, right? Saru guessed they weren't the smartest ninja in the village if that was the case.

...

"Dammit. What's taking you so long?" he grumbled to himself as he entered the Sand Village. Itachi had decided they should split up. Yeah, 'lotta good that did.

"That's the last time we follow his ideas..." he said as he passed the gate, passing himself off as a wandering hermit using a Transformation Jutsu. Whatever. The only thing that mattered was completing the mission. Kisame hardly cared about how they was to go about doing it.

Temari walked along the streets of the Sand Village until seeing her brother. At first she was weary of approching him but shighed and waved. "Gaara!!" she called while putting on a smile. "How ya been?" she asked as it had been a few days since she had seen him.

A knock on Tsunade's door caused her to look up from her work. Maybe that was them now? "Enter!" She said with a sort of aggitated relief.

Shizune couldn't foccus very well with Saru being... well Naruto-esque, so she also was very refreshed to hear a knock at he door. Secreting the key on a string back around her neck, she attempted to get something done.

Hinata had also been slowly ambling down the hall. She'd returned from a mission with Neji and Lee, and was eager to rest and begin training again. she spotted Haku in the hall at the Hokage's door and decided it would be best to listen from a safe distance.

Haku entered the Hokage's office, raising an eyebrow at Saru being Naruto-like. He bowed his head and said, "Greetings Hokage-sama. I was wondering if you might have a mission for me. I'm anxious to do something."

Tsunade sighed heavely, "Well, you can wait with Saru, unless the two of you want to go find a third party member and take on something else?"

As if on que, for she had actually been listening, Hinata emerged from the side corridoor. "Um... Lady Tsunade?" She began timidly "I'll take the spot, that is... if neither of you two mind."

Tsunade leaned back in her chair, perhaps this was getting easier. "Fine, but first; report to me on your latert mission."

"Well, it was successful..." Hinata blushed, as Lee had taken some damage, minor stuff. Neji walked away alright though, hard clip to the head, but otherwise alright.

Saru raised an eyebrow. What was a outlaw ninja like Haku doing asking for a mission from the Hokage? Especially since Haku wasn't even from this village? Oh well. None of his business, Saru supposed, "Well? What's the mission? C'mon I wanna go!" he prodded. It was a wonder that genin like Saru and Naruto were even still healthy, what with their constant pissing off of Tsunade with their annoying Naruto-ness.

He was a little jealous of Naruto, though, as Hinata wouldn't stop oggling him, only for him to be too stupidly clueless to notice. That kind of pointless crushing over someone just irked Saru, that was all. He wasn't jealous for Hinata's affection, though, at least that's what he had convinced himself of, anyway.

Iyami sat near a corner in the Hokage's office listening to Saru complain. She kind of giggled and then said "So impatient. Not a good trait for a ninja, i'd say." He reminded her so much of Naruto.
