Meet the Teacher: Hey talk to me
A few days later I was released from the hospital and was given the address to an apartment complex that was looking for tenets. I walked threw the streets of Konha shocked by the size of the city. A little drizzle was unfortunately obscuring my view slightly which made me bump into someone. I automatically apologized to the stranger without looking up.
"It not a problem" said the voice.
When I look up the figure was already walk off in the opposite direction. I noticed a book on the ground. I pick it up and saw the cover. It was one of Kakashi's books he always has with him. I ran after him. "Excuse me!" I called as I chased after him. However, he took off so quickly I could not catch up to him. I complained to myself "You dropped your book. I do not want this book."
Many people look at me oddly wondering why I was chasing after the famous Copy Ninja. However, there attention did not last long and they continued on their ways as if I had not done anything unusual. Sighing to myself I headed back the way I came and knock on the office door to the apartment complex Tsunade had recommended.
"Hello is anybody here." I look around the empty room. I notice that the room was slightly dirty and hope that the apartments were better taken care of then the office.
An old man walked in from what appeared to be a back office. "Can I help you?"
"Yes, Tsunda sent me here about possible having rooms to rent."
"Of course you must be Nell, the Hokage told me to show you a few of our rooms to rent.
As the day went on I found an apartment that I like with one bedroom, a kitchen, and living room. After completing all the necessary paper work I headed back towards town to find a hotel to stay in until I would be able to move in.
The Next Morning
I was awoken to the sound of pounding at my door. "Nell, answer me this Tsunade."
I grumble and look at the clock to see it was 6:00 in the morning. I throw the pillow over my head hoping that whoever was on the other side of the door would go away. The pounding however continued without stop I stumble towards the door. "Coming" I called while fumbling for the light that seem to have moved during the night. Finally, opening the door the bright light from hallway blinded me for a second. "Come in." I stated.
" Kakashi, has agreed to teach you."
"Okay," I say while rubbing sleep out of my eyes trying vainly to wake up.
"He will meet with you in hour at the bridge over the river that goes through the center of town. He is fairly easy to recognize with sliver hair and a ninja mask."
"Thank you for your help Tsunade." I was able to get out between yawns.
"I have taken the liberty to pick out some clothes that will be suitable for training and some breakfast for you this morning."
After having breakfast with Tsunade and she told me about the history of Konha as well as all the ninja that I would be working with. Afterwards I head out towards town to meet with Kakashi. I brought with me his book he left behind happy to be getting rid of the book. I arrived at the designated spot where I was supposed to meet Kakashi. Since I was early I decide to look around but soon I got bored and sat down. Looking at the book in my other hand I shrugged and open the book and read part of it while waiting. I looked up after reading half way through the book shock that I actually got caught up in the story. I noticed that sun was directly above me. "I hate waiting" I complain to the air that had no answer for me. As soon as I started walking towards the exit a voice stops me. "Are you Nell?"
"Yes and you are really late."
"Sorry, I got lost on path know as life today."
"Huh!!" I stared at this guy in confusion. Is he for really? Why even show up somewhere when your hours late? I thought to myself without saying. I figure now would be best time to gives his book back to him and see if Tsunade could fine me somebody else to teach me. "By the way you dropped this yesterday when I bumped into you. I am sorry I tried to catch up with you but you disappeared before I could catch you."
"Oh my god I thought I lost it Thank God." He grabbed the book out my hand and started hugging it like a lover whiling squealing in delight.
"Umm, so should I leave or are you going to get a room or something." I started to laugh at the funny scene which almost made up for his tardiness. I pondered to myself if I could get a reaction like this out of him would I really care that he was late after all I was pretty good at entertaining myself. On second thought being late is annoying no matter what he says or does after the fact. "You are so weird." I could not help but state.
All of sudden he stopped and cleared his throat."Okay, enough fooling around we don't have much time and must start training right away."
"We would have started sooner had you shown up when I got here." I informed him.
"Trust me you are not ready for a full day of me." He pulled out his book and started walking to what appeared to be a training field.
I could not help myself and stuck my tongue out at his rudeness. I know it was juvenile but it still felt good as I stepped in behind him. You think somebody with his advance years would at least be able to follow common curtsies like showing up on time or talking to someone instead of ignoring them to read a pervert book ssh.
When we entered the training fields he taught me the basic on how to mold chakra. After doing this he sat under a tree pulled out his book and continued to ignore me as if I was not there. I spent the rest of day trying to get the basic down. I would mess up occasionally to see if he would do anything but he continued to ignore me no matter what I did.
Eventually, he stood up and just walked off and waved at me. "See you tomorrow." He stated and he was off before I had a chance to respond.
"Hey," I complained to the air "how do I get back." I decide to guess since it look like he was not coming back which way to go and headed that way. I have no sense of direction so I knew if I waited any longer it would be pitch black before I got home. Unlike Naruto I did not feel the need to sleep in the elements if I could avoid them. As I walk back I went over the day's event and figured I should probably bring a lawn chair and some snacks to wait for Kakashi since he is always late in the series. I pretty much assumed I would now be waiting for him quite a lot. As I walked on I thought it would be a miracle if I do not to kill Kakashi because being late it my greatest pet peeve. "Oh dear!" I mumble to myself. "I past my hotel maybe I guess I'll just go eat at the Raman shop and then head back to the hotel."
Until next time!
