Like Lord Hokage requested, I sat down with him, drinking tea. He sat behind his desk as I sat in a chair, in front of his desk. "How was your mission, Miu?" Lord Third asked me. "Oh, it was okay. Though, Tora scratched Naruto when he tackled the poor cat." I answered softly. He chuckled.

"Lord Third?" I asked. He hummed in response. "What are the seven sins in this world?" I asked as I looked out the window. He set his cup down. "Sins are very common in this world. The first, being pride. Then, there's envy. Wrath, sloth, greed, gluttony, and finally, there's lust." he explained.

"Lust?" I asked. He gave me a nod. I've heard that word before but I never knew what it meant. I heard the door open. "There you are, Miu? Where did you go?" Kakashi asked. "I.. I left early so I drink tea-"

"Why the hell are you drinking tea when we're in the middle of a mission!" Sakura yelled at me, interrupting me. I jumped at the tone of her voice. "Sakura, I asked Miu to have tea with me." Lord Hokage said. "Old man, I want a real mission!' Naruto requested.

"What... What do you suggest we do then, N-Naruto?" I asked. He shrugged. Why is he complaining when he doesn't know what kind of mission he wants? "All right, Naruto. You win. I'll assign you a C-rank mission." Lord Third said. Naruto cheered as I wrote a few things down in my journal.

I stopped when I caught Sasuke staring at me. I avoided eye contact by shoving my face in my journal. The door opened to reveal a drunk old man. "My name is Tazuna. I'm a bridge builder and I must get back to my village. I'm suppose to entrust my life to these kids?" the old man said.

I stared at him. Tazuna caught me staring at him then frowned at me. "What are you staring at, brat!" he snapped at me. I jumped at the sudden tone in his voice. "I-I'm sorry, s-s-sir. I-I-I'll stop staring at you." I said shyly, putting my head down.

"This is Miu Shimizu. She's a bit shy, so please be patient with her." Lord Hokage requested. "Yeah, whatever." Tazuna responded. "L.. Lord Hokage, may I please go home now?" I asked. "Of course, Miu." he said smiling. I gave a slight bow then walked home.

"Hey Miu!" I turned around a rock hit my head. I shielded myself as more rocks were thrown at me. "That's what you get, you freak!" The kids from my class ran off. I lowered my arms to my side then continued my way home.

Once I got home, I went to my bathroom to check out what kind of damage I had. There were only minor injuries but not enough to actually make me bleed. I began to splash water on my face, washing  off the dirt from the rocks. "I wonder where Miu-chan is at?" I raised my head, staring at my reflection.

Someone's in my house. I stepped out of my bathroom and looked towards my living room. "Naruto? Wh-Why are you in my house?" I asked. Not only was he in my house but Kakashi, Sasuke, and Sakura was with him. "Your door was open." Naruto answered.

"I see." That was all I could say. "Is it okay if we stay for a bit? At least until we have to go for the mission?" Naruto asked. I shook my head. "I don't mind." I said softly, my hands cupped to my chest. "You have a nice home, Miu-chan." Naruto commented.

"Thank you." I said shyly. My house wasn't that great. It just had plain house colors. Nothing special. "Um, may I ask why you want to be here? N-N-Not trying to be mean or anything." I said quickly. "Well, we're just curios why you left Lord Hokage's office so early." Kakashi explained.

"Oh, because I uh.. well, you see... um, it's complicated." I answered nervously. I've never had people in my house before, so I don't know what I'm suppose to do. "Miu, where are you manners?" Sakura demanded.

"I'm sorry?" I asked, unsure what I did wrong. "You have guests in your house. The only polite thing to do is offer them refreshments." Sakura scolded at me. "I-I'm sorry. I wasn't aware of that." I said, bowing my head, apologetically.

"Well, hurry up!" Sakura urged. I nodded quickly and headed to the kitchen and began making lemonade. "You don't have to be so mean to her, Sakura. She didn't know." I heard Naruto say. "Well, she should. Hasn't her parents taught her anything?" she said.

I froze and stared at the lemonade glass. "Sakura, that's enough. It's not Miu's fault. She's just having a hard time trying to get use to being around people." Kakashi said. "Yeah, yeah. That whiny little girl is a loner. Everyone in the academy knows that. Why do you think she doesn't have any friends?" Sakura sneered.

"Sakura, stop it! That's enough!" Kakashi ordered. I poured four glasses of lemonade and set them on a tray. I jumped slightly when a pair of arms wrapped around my waist. "I-It's almost done. I-I'm sorry I'm t-t-taking a long time." I said quickly, closing my eyes out of fear. 

"What's wrong with you? Are you afraid of your own team?" I opened my eyes and turned my head, seeing Sasuke's face. "N-No. It's not that I-I'm afraid of you. I.. I'm just not used t-t-to being around other people." I admitted.

I realized his arms were still around my waist. "Please let go." I said quickly. He gave a small smirk. "And what if I don't want to?" he asked. I blushed and closed my eyes shut again. "C-C-Could y-you please l-let go?" I repeated nervously. He smirked again then released his arms from around me.

I quickly picked up the tray and went back to the living room, then set the tray down on the coffee table. "It's lemonade. I hope you like it." I said, taking a small step back.

"You didn't make yourself a glass, Miu?" Sasuke asked. I shook my head. "I-I thought it would be r-rude of me to make one for myself." I said shyly. "Here, Miu. You can have my glass." Kakashi offered. "Do you hate it? I'm sorry! I'll get you something else!" I said quickly.

"No, Miu. It's fine. I'm just not thirsty right now. Don't stress out." Kakashi assured me. I nodded. "Yes, sir." I said. He handed me his glass and I took a sip. "This is really good, Miu." Naruto said smiling. "T-Thank you, N-Naruto." I replied.

After everyone finished their drinks, I took their empty glasses and put them in the sink. I began to wash them as I read their minds. "Miu better stay away from Sasuke or else she'll pay." Sakura's mind said. I closed my eyes and read Naruto's mind.

"Man, I wish Miu would talk some more. She's almost like Hinata." I moved onto Kakashi's mind. "If she really is a loner, I'm not surprised that she's so shy."

I decided to go ahead and read Sasuke's mind. "Miu's definitely not like the girls in the academy. She's distant and really shy. It makes me wonder if I could tease her for a bit." My eyes widened at that. Teasing!? Why tease me!? I didn't do anything to him!

Once the dishes were done, I agreed to meet Squad 7 by the gates. "See you there, Miu-chan!" Naruto said as he left. I waved to him as he left my house. Sakura glared at me as she left. Sasuke was the last to leave but for some reason, he stopped.

"Is something wrong, Sasuke?" I asked as his back faced me. "You're pretty quiet." he stated. "I'm sorry. I'm just not a talkative person." I admitted. "But it makes me wonder about one thing. About why you're different from the rest of the girls of the academy." Sasuke said as he closed my door.

I'm different? Different how? "Sasuke, why did you close my door?" I asked. "Because I want to figure something out." he said as turned around to face me. "Um, I think you should leave now. We have to meet everyone by the gates in a few minutes and I still have to get ready for the mission." I explained in a soft tone.

"What is it about you that interest me, Miu? I'm just concern." Sasuke said as he began to walk towards me. I began to walk backwards. Why is he interested in me? Is he talking about when I hit Sakura with that chair? She deserved it anyway. 

"Sasuke, you need to leave my house. Now." I said, trying to sound tough. I felt my back hit a wall as I stared at the Uchiha in front of me. "Just who are you, Miu?" he asked, staring at me. What kind of question is that? "I... I'm M-Miu S-Shimizu." I answered. 

Sasuke put his hands on either sides of my head, boxing me in. "Sasuke, please leave." I said softly. He smirked and his hand moved towards my face. I turned my head away; I didn't want him touching me. He let out a small chuckle, then felt his lips touch my ear.

"I have ways of teasing you, Miu." Sasuke whispered. I closed my eyes as I blushed. "W-Why do you want to t-t-tease me? I-I've don't nothing t-to you." I objected. Why is this guy such a jerk? When my hands found his chest, I pushed him away from me.

"You need to leave now." I said, avoiding eye contact with him. I knew he was smirking. "Fine, I'll see you at the gate." Sasuke said. I kept my gaze on the floor. I closed my eyes again, trying to make my blush go away. They opened when I felt Sasuke plant a light kiss on my forehead.

I looked at him and he left.

I blushed again. What the hell just happened here? Why did that happen? I shook my head harder then went to my room to pack.

Sasuke's POV

Miu is shy and nervous, it's almost cute. I wonder what else I could do to tease her. I smirked. Miu Shimizu is definitely an interesting girl.

Miu's POV

Once I was done packing, I headed to the gates. "There you are, Miu-chan." Naruto said. "I-I'm s-s-sorry I'm late, everyone." I apologized. "Nothing to apologize for, Miu." Kakashi said. I nodded slightly. "All right! Let's go!" Naruto said, leading the way.

(Skipping the fight with the black ninjas and heading to the scene with Zabuza. Yep, I'm just that lazy. Kill me if you want.)

I got off the boat with Naruto and we began to walk down the path. I, once again, stayed behind the group. I gazed at the ground as we walked. "Miu," I lifted my head and looked at Kakashi-sensei. "Why are you behind us?" he asked. I shrugged. "I don't want to become a bother to anyone." I answered.

"Come here for a second." I walked over to him so I was walking next to him. "What were you and the Hokage talking about earlier?" he asked. "About sins." I answered honestly. I looked by a bush, sensing a rabbit.

Unfortunately, Naruto thought there was an enemy there so he threw a kunai to it. Luckily, it missed the rabbit. "Someone's following us! I know it!" Naruto said. I picked up the rabbit and began to comfort it as it shook with fear.

"Don't be frightened." I said in its mind. It stopped shaking and relaxing in my arms. I closed my eyes and began to read any minds that were near us. Yes, someone definitely was here but I couldn't recognize the enemy. "Miu, get down!" Kakashi called.

"Huh?" I turned around as a huge sword was heading right for my face! "Miu!" Sasuke tackled me out of the way, making the sword miss me and making the rabbit escape from my arms."Are you okay?" Sasuke asked me.

I nodded slightly then turned my gaze to the sword stuck in the tree. Then, a man appeared on top of it. "Zabuza... Momochi." I whispered. Zabuza heard me and looked at me. "How do you know my name?" he demanded.

I couldn't tell him I read his mind so instead, I said, "I guessed." He narrowed his eyes at me. I stood up and stared at him. "Zabuza Momochi, with your permission, I would like to fight you." I requested. He laughed. "You think a brat like you will beat me?" he said.

"I don't expect to win. I'm just requesting a fight. A battle." I said. He stared at me. "Aren't you afraid of dying, kid?" he asked. "I am. But that doesn't mean I shouldn't try and beat you." I said. Zabuza laughed again. "Do your worse, kid." he challenged.

"Miu, don't! You won't win against him! Fall back now!" Kakashi called to me. "It's okay, Kakashi-sensei. I know how to beat him." I said confidently. Zabuza did some hand signs and the whole atmosphere turned foggy. My bad, misty.

I concentrated and tried to read his mind. He was going to attack me from behind. I did a back flip and landed behind him. I summoned my Chaos Blade and went to stab him. I gasped when he quickly turned around and blocked off my attack with his own sword.

"You're going have to do better than that, kid." Zabuza said before grabbing my neck. He lifted me off the ground. My hands grabbed his wrists as I gasped for air. "Miu!" Kakashi called. I looked at Zabuza in the eye and looked through his mind.

"Mind Destruction Jutsu!" His eyes widened and released my throat. I fell to the ground as he grabbed his head. "Stop! Make it stop!" Zabuza screamed. I smirked. It's working. The Mind Destruction Jutsu is a somewhat back- to-the-past jutsu. Except it searches the enemies most worst time in their life.

I watched Zabuza as he screamed. I undid the jutsu, thinking that was enough of hurting him. Zabuza stopped screaming and he glared at me. "What did you do to me?" he demanded. "I went through your most darkest secrets in your life." I answered.

I gasped when he grabbed the front of my shirt and lifted me off the ground. "You're going to pay for that." he said, getting out his sword. My eyes widened in fear. "Miu!" Shuriken was thrown at Zabuza, causing him to drop me. I hit the ground with a soft thud.

"Miu-chan, are you okay?" Naruto asked. I nodded my head slightly. "I'm tired right now. I think I'll take a nap." I said softly before closing my eyes. I used up more chakra than I had to. "Miu-chan! Miu-chan, wake up!" Naruto said as I fell asleep.
