Kakashi was, as he more often than not, found leading his team from the back. Ostensibly it was because since they were in the village he would be the best rearguard, in truth it was because he wanted to read as his team walked to their missions. In fact he found himself with a lot more time to read. The reason was that his team was just, soooooo slow! He hadn’t complained about it yet as all of their missions had been D ranks.

So it was with book in hand that the masked ninja took stock of Airi’s store with muted interest. The store front hadn’t really changed from what he could recall, and the kitchen was a fair bit larger then he would have imagined it to have been. He too had noticed the fresh goods, but chose instead to chuckle at his students actions rather than indulge in the smells. After all he knew the reason they were here likely had little to do with any of the food.

Sure enough they had been taken out of the kitchen and in to the back, and there was honest surprise on Kakashi’s face when he saw the garden.  He hadn’t realized just how much of a green thumb that Airi had. ‘Risks of trying her home grown cooking?’ he wondered as Sakura asked about helping garden.

Kakashi was unsuprised at the looks of disappointment that all of his students had when they realized it was once again menial chores that they had been hired to do, what was surprising was the longing look Naruto had tossed the garden.

“Alright team, time to get to work” Kakashi said as he put his book away for later.

“We climb” Kakashi said with an eye smile as he walked over to the tools and grabbed what would be needed to start their task.

[color=blue]“Climb?” Asked Sasuke with a disbelieving tone as he took another look at the building, trying to but, not really seeing any easy way to get to the roof since they weren’t going to use a ladder.[/color]

[color=yellow]Naruto on the other hand seemed to take that information in stride and started gathering up his own supplies to start working, though he was grumbling about the fact that it was a chore once again.[/color]

“Yup” Kakashi answered as he started walking towards the building. All of the genin stopped for a moment to watch how their sensei would go about it, and collectively they were stunned in to silence as Kakashi just keep walking up the building, seemingly completely disregarding gravity as he did. 

Once Kakashi reached the roof he turned around to face his students “Like that. Any questions?” he asked, his tone stating he knew full well that he was about to be grilled on how he did that.
