Some day, this will be a "Last.fm/NetFlix/Amazon for web fiction" (both original and fanfiction) where you can search across many different hosting sites or rate what you've read and get recommendations. However, life keeps throwing more urgent projects my way, so I don't know when it'll be ready.

"So what is it, Kakashi-sensei?" asked all three genin. One enthusiastically, one shyly, and one ready for his chance to shine.

"Errr," said Kakashi Hatake, who was quite aware after yesterday that this group might end up with some pranks being done if things didn't go their way. Unfortunately, he knew what today's mission was. "You get to pull weeds from a field."

Three stares met him.

"That was a good joke, Kakashi-sensei," said Naruto after that brief pause. "I mean we didn't go through ninja school, graduate, and pass that test yesterday to be unskilled labor. Right?"

"It's a D-Rank mission," said Kakashi, wincing at two spikes of Killing Intent and one of... oh no that was SO not fair. That hurt/disappointed look from Hinata. The Kill Intent was an occupational hazard but THAT was just going into completely uncalled for. "Actually, it's a fairly typical D-Rank."

Naruto had a bit more experience after going through the time with Vita hurting him and then the time afterwards. He had an idea, and a dark chuckle from somewhere in the depths of his stomach indicated agreement from THAT end of things as well. "So... we should do these basic unskilled tasks, but we should approach them as skilled ninja practicing our trade?"

"Eh?" asked Kakashi, sensing that something BAD was about to happen. "Well, I suppose..."


Hours later, having seen Hinata using her knowledge of herbcraft and Byakugan to direct nearly a hundred Naruto in the clearing of the field, Kakashi glanced at the sun, determined that they were going to clear an all-day mission in about an hour, and looked over at where Sasuke was holding up a sign that said [We're on a lame D-Rank mission. Can you come up with something better? Please tell the Hokage!]

"You're not planning on doing that ALL the time, are you?" asked Kakashi as another group of girls stopped, read the sign, and had a giggle fit before running off.

"Why not?" said Sasuke. "I could do this all day."

"You're not Sasuke," realized Kakashi suddenly. "You're one of Naruto's shadow clones using a henge to look like Sasuke."

The "Sasuke" looked back at him. "Oh? What gave it away?"

"Sasuke has more practice at sounding surly," said Kakashi, who had a return of that BAD feeling. One of the genin missing. Still, it was Sasuke. He probably would just go off to brood. Unless... "Are there any shadow clones that went with him?"

"Well, yeah," admitted the "Sasuke" shadow clone. "A couple."

"Uh oh," said Kakashi. "Should I be concerned?"

"You made me promise not to scan you," said the "Sasuke" clone. "On the other hand, did you know that Sasuke as the Uchiha heir has access to that entire section of Konoha and it's just lying open for anyone to use? Well, he says the ANBU do training and such there, but that's it mostly."

The Sasuke-clone turned towards him and Kakashi KNEW upon seeing that smirk. He just absolutely KNEW that this was going to come back and bite him somewhere sensitive.
