Shiro smiled a little, kakashi was now of the crutches. Everyone in team 7 but Naruto were now escorting tazuna down the street towards the bridge, Naruto had been training hard for the past few days and needed rest, so the team left without him. Shiro smiled waving to the villagers who smiled at her,
"nee-chan!!" A group of kids all shouted, running up to shiro, shiro giggled and bent down,
"Nani?" Shiro asked smiling. The group of kids then all hugged her making her smile and sit down on the dirty ground most of the kids had new clothing that most of them had bought with the money that she had given them, the rest of team 7 watched quietly, Sakura was shocked, Shiro tousled a boys hair and smiled,
"Arigatou!" They all shined happily, Shiro giggled
"Dōitashimashite" she said smiling as she stood up and glanced to the rest of her team she then smiled and continued walking,
"Ne, don't come with us okay?" She said to the kids they all nodded and ran off. sasuke smirked and followed Shiro, the group then soon made it to the bridge to see all the workers unconscious. Shiro frowned and looked to kakashi, kakashi sighed as tazuna began to freak out.. Sakura was shocked,
"What happened here?!" Sakura exclaimed worriedly. Shiro frowned
"Momochi" Shiro stated frowning. Mis then spread across the area, zabuza and the boy from their first fight emerged from the mist. Kakashi didn't seem surprised about the boy or the situation, shiro looked to kakashi and frowned grabbing out a kunai. Kakashi looked at her, her ears went down instantly, the looks from all his teammate's were ordering her to stay out of the fight. Shiro frowned but nodded, moving back to tazuna and standing Infront of him. Kakashi and zabuza fighting while Sasuke and Haku fought. Shiro looked around, why wasn't she allowed to fight? She survived the first attack she could survive the next.. right?" It was then when a clone of zabuza suddenly went to attack. Kakashi too busy to help while fighting the real one, shiro spun around, the clones sword going to slice off tazuna and Sakura's head, shiro winced, holding her kunai tightly, blocking the large swing with both her arm and kunai, wincing.. The red liquid dripping onto the fridge floor.. Dropping at a fast rate, shiro kept her stance and grabbing our a second kunai and stabbed it into the clones stomach, the clone then dispersed into water.. Shiro looked at her arm before moving back to her postion, blood pouring from The wound. Shiro sighed, her arm stung badly.. Hurting a lot. But she couldn't let tazuna die, afterall he allowed her on her first mission out if the village, of course she had to save Sakura, her team wouldn't forgive her if they lost Sakura, shiro kept a firm stance. Sakura and tazuna wide eyed.. The girl wasn't fast, wasn't even the best ninja, but she had protected them even after getting injured. It was then when tazuna noticed a red substance soaking through her shirt..
"Shiro why are you bleeding on your side?!" Sakura shouted concerned.. Shiro's hand travelled down to her waist.. Feeling the blood soak through from zabuza's previous attack. Shiro then went back to her firm stance. Moving that fast has opened up the wound again.. But she could deal with it.. Although it hurt a lot, she wouldn't let her teammate's die..

Time skip~
Shiro whimpered.. Blood dripping from her fingertips, his arm bleeding badly with a large cut that would have killed he of it was to the chest or to the head. Shiro frowned, Naruto had came and became something she hadn't seen, he became a monster like thing.. But it was still Naruto.. It confused her that the boy had changed to look a lot like kura. But she ignored it and went to sasuke's side, he was presumed dead., but he was alright he had waken up. Kakashi had killed Haku, Haku getting in the way, leaving zabuza to cry and get attacked. Shiro frowned, watching Kakashi lay zabuza beside Haku, shiro sighed, hand over her arm. She quickly stepped away.. Wanting to take care of it when she was alone, but Sasuke caught her.
"Hey! Don't run off when your injured idiot!" Sasuke shouted back at her, shiro flinched and looked away.. Kakashi and Naruto went wide eyed at her. Sasuke sighed a concerned look in all of their eyes. Sakura sighed, shiro had protected her again.. That was the third time this mission. Sakura frowned, shiro walking back to the group, bleeding still. Kakashi sighed, sasuke's wounds would heal quickly, so would naruto's and his. But shiro's would heal as quickly, having a large cut and gash she'd bleed out until she died, and the team couldn't have the fear of shiro dying on their mind, kakashi crouched down and grabbed out some bandages, wrapping them around her arm then around her stomach again. He glanced up at shiro who had a saddened look on her face, kakashi sighed standing back up after he finished and sighed, after lots of thank you's from the villagers and of course the children for shiro. Inari and Naruto cried. Shiro smiled Toshiro frowning
"I don't want you to leave!" Toshiro shouted, shiro smiled and sighed
"Ne Gomenasai Toshiro-kun, but I can't stay" shiro said sighing, kakashi sighed and put a hand on her shoulder
"Time to go shiro" she smiled
"Hai hatake-sensei!" Shiro said cheerfully, smiling up at him like she usually did, kakashi nodded, giving her a closed eye smile before getting the rest of the team.. They all soon moved out, without tazuna this time.. On their way to the leaf village.. Where the chuunin exams awaited them..
