"Shut up, Tazuna. Shut. The. Fuck. Up."
"Naruto-san, please…" tried Tazuna.
"Oh it's 'Naruto-san' now, is it? What happened to 'runt', huh?"
"Look, what do you want me to say? I'm sorry, okay? I didn't have the money for a B-rank mission and I was desperate. This bridge represents the hope of the entire island and I can't get it finished soon-"
"Whatever!" screamed Naruto. "You could have just said that to the Hokage and asked for a delayed payment. He'd go along with it! Do you realize in what position you've just put me? My Jounin-sensei and the only other effective teammate are both out of commission for at least three days! What do you think is going to happen if we're attacked right now?"
"Well…" began Tazuna.
"We'll all get massacred, that's what!" yelled Naruto. "You stupid, stupid idiot! What the hell am I supposed to do now? I'm a freaking rookie, fresh out of the village! My first mission was supposed to be a cake-walk, just something to give me a taste of things, not like this! What the hell am I supposed to do here!"
"Slaughter everything," rumbled Kyuubi helpfully in the back of his head. "Salt the ground afterwards."
Naruto ignored it. Damn fox rarely had anything useful to say. Fortunately it rarely spoke to him at all.
