FIRE
Kakashi was wary. He just had a feeling something was going to happen and it was centered around Shisui-kun teaching Naruto.
But it wasn’t as if this was Shisui-kun’s first time teaching the kid…Maybe it was because this is the first lesson with Naruto going to the Academy?
Maybe.
But Kakashi didn’t know what to think of it as the two children(Shisui-kun was a child at heart, everyone knew he was just a big scary kid) raced off, Naruto jumping off trees as Shisui-kun raced below him.
Kakashi sighed, learning back and covering his face with his book. He’ll just play damage control if the need to comes.

Kakashi regretted ignoring his gut. It had saved him before and he should have been watching.
“Shishi-chan gave me FIRE!” Naruto yelled, running around with a stick and a fucking flame on the end and smiling widely.
“Naruto no!” Shisui-kun yelled desperately. It would have been funny if not for the circumstances, Kakashi mused.
“Naruto yes!” the kid beamed, laughing evilly. Since when was that laugh so evil?
Kakashi sighed, glaring at Shisui-kun who was trying to get the flaming stick without burning himself. Did he really have to give Naruto fire? Every kid has the fire obsession, including Kakashi, but did he have to get him started this early? He didn’t want to have to look after every little thing the kid did to make sure the barracks didn’t burn down!
He stood up, walking over and putting out the flame with a simple water jutsu. “You shouldn’t run around with fire, Naru-chan,” Kakashi chided.
Naruto stared at the stick and pouted, “But-fire!”
“Fire is dangerous,” Kakashi said. “It could hurt people.”
Naruto pouted, sitting down hard on the soil. “But it’s so cool.”
Kakashi nodded, “It is. But we have to be careful.”
Naruto pouted before perking up, “How do we play with fire safely?” he asked, eyes sparkling. Ah, at least Kakashi taught him to think.
Kakashi internally groaned, glaring at the sheepish Shisui-kun — who was patting out a fire on his shirt and hair — before responding, “We’ll have to go to a proper training ground first,” he said. “And probably drag Itachi-kun with you to teach you fire jutsu.”
Naruto beamed, “Thanks, Kashi-nii!”
*****
Kakashi regretted life.
“Fuck-Kakashi!”
“Yell at Shisui-kun,” Kakashi said, sitting in the tree across the small forest fire Naruto started.
“Help put it out!” Shisui-kun screeched.
Kakashi hummed, flipping a page, “No. I don’t think I will.”
“Kakashi!”
He sighed, jumping down from the tree. He smiled — ah, he loved having a mask — forming hand signs for the easiest water jutsu for this job. “Will you get me the next two books of the Icha Icha series?” he asked.
“Fine! Okay! I will!”
Kakashi let his eye curve into his signature blinding smile. “Okay.” He finished the hand signs, a light shower sprinkling from his mouth.
He learned this one from the multitude of gardening D-rank missions he had. Very useful to easily water plants.
“KAKASHI!”
