A/N:
This here story like type deal. Sorry if it hops back and forth
between characters.
Also Naruto does not belong to me and never will.
Uchiha
Sasuke, one of the last surviving members of the
legendary
Uchiha clan of the Konoha Village panted as he leaned
against
the ruined rocks in the quarry near the outskirts of the
village.
Sasuke held onto his arm, which steam poured out from it
after
he spent a lot of his chakra practicing the new technique that
he
had recently learned from Kakashi-sensei.
His
breathing labored, the young ninja prodigy stared at the new
holes
in the stone that he created.
Not
to far away, Kakashi nodded his head.
"That's not too bad.
You learn
quick Sasuke."
"I have to" replied the younger ninja.
"One
word of warning though, don't overdo it. At your current
strength
now, do not attempt to pull off this technique more than a
few
times." Kakashi stared down at his own hand. "That is,
unless
you
want to die."
Sasuke
was silent. Then Kakashi laughed. "But don't worry about it.
I'm
sure a smart boy like you will use some common sense. Now let's
go
back to the village and get something to eat."
The
young Uchiha boy nodded his head then followed after his teacher
down
the mountain.
Uzumaki
Naruto was not a happy ninja. Not only would his new tutor
not
teach him any new techniques, but the old man only wanted to
spend
his time peeping in on young women in the hot springs and
watch
girls bath under the waterfall.
"Research
my butt" the blond boy muttered to himself as he walked
along
down through the marketplace towards his favorite ramen
stand.
"That damn erosenin (a term Naruto uses for Jiraiya-
literally
means a perverted man who's lived for 1000 years.) when's
he
going to teach me something. What kind of teacher doesn't teach
his
pupil"
Naruto
shook his head then pulled out his frog wallet and playfully
tossed
it up into the air and caught it as it came down. "Bah,
forget
it. I might as well just get some ramen."
In
the mean time Tatsuya stood in front of the mirror in her bedroom.
The last few
months
hadbeen long, but fun, she got to be a Genin again.
Now, it
was
time to become a Jounin again and reveal her real self as
planned.
Time to present to them Uchiha Tatsuya
she thought as she
put
her headband on, she was now fully dressed in her Jounin clothes.
A
few minutes later she was out the door and headed to get some
ramen.
As she walked through Konoha she got a few odd glances and
looks
from people. She simply shrugged them off and continued on her
path
to get ramen.
Uchiha
Kame walked down the street toward the ramen shop, hungry
after
training his students all morning. He was particularly
impressed
with Kuroi Tatsuya, whom he thought would have no trouble
in
the preliminaries. He approached the ramen shop, and went in,
seeing
Tatsuya sitting on one of the stools. "Hey, Tatsuya"
he
paused
mid-sentence, his eyebrow raising"Where...did you get
those
clothes"
Tatsuya
looked over at Kame. "Oh these old things? I've had 'em for
a
couple years." She turned and looked at her bowl of ramen;
she
pulled
down her mask and quickly ate, before anyone could really
notice
she was done.
"Why
do you ask" she asked curiously and
stupidly.This
is going to be interesting
she thought with a
sigh.
Kame
blinked with a stupefied expression on his face.
"Why
do
I...Humph!
Do you really need to ask that? Anyways, I'm asking
because
only Chunnins and Jounins wear those clothes, and
you're...obviously
not a Genin..." He sighed. "So, what other
secrets
are you going to reveal to me this fine day? I bet your
last
name's not even Kuroi" He looked at her harshly.
"As
a matter of fact my last name isn't Kuroi...its Uchiha." she said
and walked
off
rather
quickly. Her walk then became a run, she almost ran into a
passing
Kakashi
and Sasuke. She came to a stop in the training
field,
she hopped up into a nearby tree
where she sat for a while
thinking.
'I knew it, I knew people would get upset, but I didn't
think
Kame would' she thought sighing. She continued to sit in the
tree,
maybe no one
would find her.
Kame
just stared at his ramen, in shock from what he heard. Finally he
snapped out of it
and quickly ate. He got up and walked quickly out,
and ran right
into
Sasuke.
"Ah!
Sorry about that, Sasuke! Wish I could talk, but I've got to find
Tatsuya...I think she
has something to tell you,
so I'll bring her back here."
He dashed away toward the training area, hoping to find her there.
Sasuke
blinked at Kame as the fellow ninja ran into him. "Right.
Whatever"
he said with a shrug.
He and Kakashi took their seats at the Ramen stand.
"Well
well, if it isn't Naruto" Kakashi said, smiling. At least,
what
others thought to be a smile. With the mask he wore, the
only
telltale
sign of a smile was the slight movement of his eyes.
Naruto
nodded, slurping down his noodles with his usual gusto. "Oh,
Kakashi-sensei,
Sasuke..." Naruto fixed his fellow teammate with a
perplexed
stare. "You guys been training"
Sasuke
didn't reply to him, so Kakashi jumped in. "Yes. I've
been
working
with Sasuke on perfecting his technique. Oh, and by the way,
how
is your new teacher going for you"
Naruto
frowned and stared at Kakashi with squinted eyes. "That
guy...
no, I found someone else to teach me... the erosennin,
Jiraiya."
"Oh? Is that so"
Naruto
nodded. "Yeah, but the guy won't teach me anything!
All
erosennin
does is stare at girls all day."
Kakashi
laughed. "I'm sure if you're patient enough, he'll teach
you
something
good. Jiraiya just so happens to be a great teacher."
"That has yet to be determined."
The
one-eyed Sharingan master laughed again. "In due time,
Naruto."
He
turned towards the ramen stand to order. "We'll have two orders
of
ramen
please..."
A
bit later Tatsuya sensed Kame, and became completely still and
silent, hoping he
would find her... 'I really don't want to deal with
him.'she thought. She looked for him
then spotted him. In a swift
movement
threw two Kunai and three Shuriken at him. She then
hopped
from the tree she was in to the next, and hid high up in it, where
she silently watched.
A/N: AH I know, you have no clue what's going on with Tatsuya… Haha, I'll have to put her story one of these days..
