Mito waited for their return, after taking a hot bath all by herself. She felt a lot lighter and full of energy. It was the best feeling she had in long time. When the others finally returned they made lunch ate it and then they went to play games. This time Hayate didn't manage to stop truth or dare. The bottle was spinning. Obito was the one who made a spin. It landed facing Mito and Rin. The bottom part was facing Mito while the top was facing Rin. So it was Mito asking Rin, truth pr dare. Rin had said truth. Mito hummed :" alright, i have question for you. Hmm. Did you…"
Tension rised in the room, well at least Obito and Rin were tense. Mito smirked :" ate my cookies yesterday."
Rin felt relif flood her over as she answered :" no, i didn't."
Obito was thenthe one who spoke :" what the heck was that question. It isn't fun at all."
Mito chuckled :" then next time i will make it fun."
Obito regretted instantly. Since now Rin spined the bottle and it landed on Mito and him. Luckily it was him that got the bottom. So he smirked as he asked :" truth or dare. " Mito thought about it for a moment, and she decided to play truth. Obito smirked even more :" so, then answer this, does Kakashi have a chance of being your boyfriend."
Mito didn't hesitate :" of course."
Obito was surprised when Kakashi didn't react on her answer nor his question. Were they already dating.
Mito then spined the bottle and it landed on Kakashi asking Hayate :" truth or dare. "
Hayate answered with truth. Kakashi asked :" is it true that you were jealous of Tenzo."
Hayate answered :" only because you made it sound like i was completely replaced by him."
Mito awed :" i love you too."
The game continued, once it landed on Genma asking Shisui truth or dare. Shisui was the first one to say dare. Which made game much more interesting. Genma smirked :" i dare you to confess your feelings to Hayate. "
Shisui was confused, but Mito explained :" he wants you to tell how you feel about Hayate."
Shisui nodded as he spoke :" well i didn't have much time to speak with him, however i like him as a person, he and could be friends. "
The next dare however wasn't innocent at all. Mito dared Obito to kiss Rin. The kiss was meant to be brief one however Rin and Obito were enjoying it to much. Mito laughed :" easy guys you were only supposed to touch each others lips not play with tongue."
The boys were surprised but Obito turned the bottle as quickly as possible landing on Mito and Hayate. He did so that nobody could ask anything. Mito went along with it as she asked Hayate truth or dare. Je asnwerd with truth. He didn't really want to kiss anyone. Mito smirked :"i want to ask if there is a girl you like."
Hayate blushed red as he answered :" there is one."
The group froze they didn't know, the trio also wondered if it was Mito. But seeing how he reacted and how he usually was around her they knew it wasn't possible.
The game continued. With many dares that were mostly on doing weird things like meowing or pouring ( Shisui had to do it.) then being touchy with himself (Kakashi) ' he basically had to touch hos whole body even mask. Then it got kinda weird as they started to undress as challenges. Luckily for Mito she never got that dare nor did the Hayate. It was again turn for her to ask him truth or dare. Hayate being mildly scared of dare said truth again. She smirked as she spoke :" does your crush have purple hair."
Hayate flushed red as he nodded his head. He spined tge bottle again however it landed the same Mito smirked asking him if he will take truth or dare. Hayate thought frustrated for second, if she would dared him to say his crushs name at loud it would or if she would ask him in truth the same question. He realized that she won however he answered. He just nodded his head. The other were just as intrigued in the topic. Mito spoke softly :" is she younger than you."
Hayate nodded :" yes few months younger."
Mito nodded :" i guess that i have seen het around you lately."
Hayate was bit surprised :" Really, so what did you think about her."
Mito nodded :" i think that you two look cute together. Why don't you confess."
Hayate shake his head saying :" i don't have confidence. "
Mito nodded :" well i wouldn't worry about that, from what i saw she doesn't dislike you at all. "
Mito actually never saw the girl however she knew that the two would be lovers anyway. And since Hayate is healthy now she wanted him to be happy all the time.
The game ended when Mito said that it was time for last hot spring bath. Everyone went downstairs to take it. It was perfect Mito relaxed as much as she could. The few hours left to prepare for leaving back to Konoha. Mito spend it relaxing and slowly packing. The dinner was easy and quick to finish. They went to sleep early. Mito in the morning went to pay for their stay while the others were getting ready. Mito wasn't surprised by the price while it was expensive it wasn't as much as she thought it would be. The journey back was a bit faster paced than one when they got there. There wasn't a reason for it but Mito knew that she would still have tons of job waiting for her. When she entered the village. The atmosphere of it seemed a lot mpre pleasant than she remembered it. Mito said her goodbyes to her friends as she went to home. She didn't expect Jiraiya to be sitting in the room teaching the few shinobi about seals. However she didn't show the surprise. She came here just to inform Tamura and Suzume that she was back. When she did that the dou fussed about how she was supposed to be longer on vacation and that she should take few days more. However mito declined saying ahe had a lot of paperwork to deal with. Moreover tje kids would be back in few days and she had other things to deal with. When she finally left the dou Jiraiya was watching her carefully, leaning on the doors not letting her go. Mito stayed calm as she asked :" don't you have more important things to do. "
Jiraiya answered, :" you really don't understand how important you are to me. I even gave you toads as summoning jutsu, i like you because you helped me much more than I helped you."
Mito nodded :" i understand that, but I don't understand why you couldn't answer my question then honestly. You know that i don't like liers and not being believed in. So why did you still lie. "
Jiraiya nodded :" it was my mistake, i feared because you clearly knew of his fate but i wanted him to live it through himself as he no longer wishes for anyone help because they believe that they can help others. "
Mito nodded :" still it wasn't i or him really want. I will forgive you this time if you let me go now. "
Jiraiya stood there frozen from surprise. Mito tapped him on the shoulder as she spoke :" this is last time though, don't make me angry again. "
Mito finally reached the headquarters, where she found many root operatives doing their jobs. They bowed slightly when they noticed her entering, however they quickly returned to their jobs. Mito walked to her table where the root member she made her second in comand was busy doing her usual job. He didn't have as much experience with this so he was slow, it also seemed that he didn't take changes of surroundings when he did the paperwork. So Mito had to cought to make him focus on her. The man was surprised when he saw her. Asking her if she had rested enough and saying that she could take few days more. Mito shake her head saying :"it is alright, i feel super. And besides you seem stiff maybe you should go on a mission, to vent the energy."
The root nodded as he let Mito sit in her chair she then quickly began to deal with paperwork. It was going lot faster than she remembered. Maybe because now she could focus on it clearly and her clones also did help.
The chunins had exited from the training area fully covered in dirt. Mito noticed how they stiffed when they noticed her. They bowed towards her. Mito made hand gesture for them to come closer. They did so.
Mito smirked as she asked :" so how do you feel. Tired."
The chunins hesitated to answer that question. Probably fearing what would happen of they said yes.
Mito nodded :" if you are, i would give you a day of rest, i know how resting is important."
The chunins however still didn't answer. Mito spoke :" you look tired and the next part of training will be harder and harder. So i don't want you guys falling it."
Finally a chunin steped out and said :" Mito - san, i would like to ask for the rest day then."
Mito nodded :" then all of you will get one. I am training all together. In two days time we will have rematch to see how you progressed. While i do have reports of your progress i want to see it with my eyes. "
The chunins then left receiving day to relax. Mito continued to do her paperwork. She was close to doing the one day worth of it in 2 hours time she was there. She noticed then that almost every root member was in village possibly because they didn't have any mission. She knew that she would have to meet with Minato then, he would want to talk with her too. She decided to go when she was done with paperwork.
Mito however manged to finish it in 7 pm. Since she began doing it in 3 pm. It was surprisingly fast however she was visited by Orochimaru at that time. He scolded her for going straight to work after taking a small break. Mito nodded :" that may be true but I don't think that i did something wrong. Anyways i wanted to ask you how far you are in researching Uzumaki clan library."
Orochimaru answered her :" i am getting closer to the half point. However it is possible that i will slowing down since the kid that you wanted me to take care of is going to arrive in few days time. "
Mito nodded :" Kabuto is arriving with Nono, i know you will understand why i want you to train him. "
Orochimaru then took Mito for her hand, Mito rose her eyebrows as he spoke :" you look cute like this, in your casual clothes. "
Mito flushed as she realized she didn't change her clothes. She stood up as that was what Orochimaru wanted. She was then walking next to him towards the Uzumaki compand as he spoke :" i heard that you forgave Jiraiya. I however think that you left him with minimal punishment."
Mito nodded :" i agree, however he will not try anything similar to that again. Which is fine."
Orochimaru nodded :" that is true the faces that he made when he was still fighting with you were priceless and meant a lot. "
Mito snorted :" the fool has the face of fool and acts as one. "
Orochimaru laughed :" You took my insult. But i do agree with you."
Mito smirked :" but there is another reason i left him of the hook. The man will become a godfather to Naruto. "
Orochimaru was little surprised :" You are willing to speak about him now then."
Mito nodded :" his parents know and everything is moving smoothly. I don't know if anything can possibly go wrong. And what can go wrong i will try to prevent it. "
Mito then stopped as she saw Lisa in front of her in the library rooming freely. The two then had a small conversation while Orochimaru was searching for a book he wanted to hear Mito explain something in it. She answered it with ease. The question was related to jutsu Mito wanted Orochimaru to do for becoming immortal. She saw where his concer laid. He thought that if he would enter new body he would become a new person however Mito asnwerd that that wasn't possible because what was important is chakra and his soul, his body cells would be imbolded in the new body and only reason why he needed her blood was because the bodies were likely yo rejected him if not for her blood.
Orochimaru nodded as he understood. Mito felt bad as she knew that without Sage she didn't know to perform the jutsu even though she knew the theory behind it. Well she always could try it, but if they failed now the next time would be in few years if Orochimaru survived.
The day finished with Mito laying in her bed she took a shower previously, Orochimaru almost tucked her in bed together with Tamura. However she managed to squeeze out saying she had to take shower. Orochimaru seemed to be getting closer to whole Uzumaki family, he still was hesitant to speak with Kushina and Minato however Tamura and he were the best friends it would seem. Mito slept peacefully and woke up bit earlier than she had when she was on vacation. She went to Hokage's office first, to get the missions for her root. Minato was bit surprised to hear that she had already returned to jer job yesterday. He worried for her a bit but Mito asnwerd :" i got the scolding from 4 people already. I don't want to hear it again."
Minato stopped as he reached for a mission pile that weren't done. Mito gratefully took it. However before she could leave Minato spoke :" Jiraiya and you are okay now."
Mito nodded :" i have my reasons to forgive him. "
Minato nodded :" I am happy to hear that since both i and Kushina agreed on making him and Tsunade Narutos godfather and godmother."
Mito nodded, she glanced at him as she smiled. Minato wondered if she knew from before since the reaction didn't seem to faze her at all. Mito spoke :" is there anything else that you want to tell me. "
Minato shake his head. Mito then asked :" oh, really, you don't need my help with that paperwork. I guess i don't have a reason to visit you for next few weeks then."
Minato exclaimed :"wait, what, i need to see you at least once a week."
Mito smirked :" Then visit the headquarters of root."
Minato smirked as he noticed the joke. It was like Mito was saying she was more important than he was, however both of them knew it was joke from the tone that Mito used. Mito then started to walk out of the office only to bump into Shikaku once she opened the door. Mito snorted :" not you too, uncle."
Luckily only Shikaku heard it as he began to laugh. Mito side stepped as she said :" come later, if you want to relax."
Shikaku nodded :" i will take that offer."
Mito then dissappeared with shushin. When she entered the headquarters she immediately give few missions, the ones that would be done with a day.
