Chapter #8The next day by: Galan   "Time to head to the training area." Naruto muttered, he made his way there as he stretched out his sleepiness, his sensei told him not to eat anything so that's what he did, he probably should've nibbled on something though, how would he have known? Eventually he arrived as Sakura waved at him with a friendly smile while Sasuke scoffed and ignored him, typical behavior from him really.
"Hey Sakura." Naruto said.
"Hi." Sakura said, "so when will he arrive?"
"No idea." Naruto said, "how are you feeling?"
"Better." Sakura replied, "I cleared my head."
"And?" Naruto asked.
"I really would like to give you a chance." Sakura said, Naruto smiled at that.
"We'll talk more about it after this then." Naruto told her, "right now we need to focus." Sakura nodded at that. It felt like hours before Kakashi finally arrived as he waved.
"Hey." Kakashi lazily said.
"You're late!" Sakura yelled.
"Sorry about that, I got lost in the road of life." Kakashi gave an eye smile, Sakura and Naruto gave him a dirty look while Sasuke scoffed.
"Whatever, let's get this over with, the sooner I pass the sooner I can complete my goal." Sasuke spat.
"Before that." Kakashi said as he pulled out food, "looks delicious doesn't it?"
"That's cheating!" Sakura accused, "you know we didn't eat anything!"
"Now why would you do something like that?" Kakashi gave a grin.
"You know full well you told us not to, in your own words, we'd puke." Naruto said.
"Did I?" Kakashi feigned ignorance, "what if it was an enemy disguised as me?" Silence hit the field, "lesson one, use just about anything at your disposal to win, lie, cheat, seduce, almost anything you can think of." Kakashi paused, "of course you don't want to go overboard, least we turn into monsters, which of course none of us here are." Naruto smiled at that comment, Kakashi caught that but said nothing.
"So, in other words, you lied to us." Sasuke said.
"Bingo." Kakashi clapped, "but worry not, this delicious meal will be yours, IF you pass."
"What is this test anyways?" Naruto asked.
"I'm glad you asked." Kakashi said, "in my hand are two bells, your task is to get them, whoever can get a bell will pass and become true Genin."
"But there are three of us!" Sakura said.
"Indeed, which means that the one who doesn't get a bell has to go back to the academy." Kakashi said, "you have two hours to complete this task, do whatever it takes to take these bells off of me."
"Easy enough." Sasuke gloated.
"Is it now?" Kakashi asked, "I guess we'll find out." There was a pause, "you may begin...now!" Kakashi vanished into a puff of smoke, causing them all to get startled.
"What do we do?" Sakura asked.
"WE, do nothing." Sasuke spat, "I don't need you two slowing me down."
"Don't be an idiot, we should stick together." Naruto spat back.
"Not happening." Sasuke huffed as he stormed off, Sakura growled.
"The more I spend time with him, the more I question what I ever saw in that jerk." Sakura growled.
"Ignore him, we need to get the bells off of him, we'll have a better chance working together." Naruto said.
"What about Sasuke?" Sakura asked.
"What about him, he wants to go on his own, let him, if he wants our help all he has to do is ask." Naruto said.
"Okay." Sakura nodded, the two of them traveled together, determined to get the bells off of Kakashi.   indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
