Chapter 2: The First Day and the First Fight
A/N: Well… yeah what did you think of my first chapter? It was probably bad huh? Again, Thanks to UchihaFanForver (UFF) for beta-reading my stories! And to everyone who is reading this anyways, read some of her stories too! Please? R&R
B-R/N: UFF here, I procrastinated. Check out my new Hetalia story!
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto.
"HMPH! It's Friday! Time to get ready to go on the big mission!" Naruto moaned early in the morning.
Unlike his teammates, he had just woken up. Naruto walked around for a bit, made himself cereal, and brushed his teeth. It took him half an hour just to do that, and about 15 minutes just trying to keep him-self awake. Naruto put on his fore-head protector, got his backpack, and left.
'Well, at least it's a pretty day today.' Naruto thought to himself.
Then Naruto as he was getting closer to the main gate, he heard a high-pitched voice calling his name, over and over again. It was Hinata.
"Hey, Naruto, we're over here! Hurry up!" Hinata cried. "Or else we will be late!"
Then Naruto paused and just ended up slowing down again.
"Uh, right Hinata. I'll be right there." He shouted back as loud as he can.
Walking up from behind Naruto was Sakura and Sai. Sakura looked especially tired. Sai was walking right next to her, but maybe a little too close?
"Hey, Sakura-" but when Naruto turned around, the first thing he could do was frown. Frown at Sai, of course.
"Great. Sai is here too." Naruto said, while rolling his eyes.
'Jeez.' Sakura thought, 'It's been a year already and they still haven't gotten along. How much longer until the finally get along and become friends?'
In the middle of Naruto and Sai's fight, Kakashi hit both of them on the head.
"How much more childish can you two get?" Kakashi sighed.
"Kakashi sensei, you're late again." Naruto and Sakura muttered under their breath.
"Oh, where are Kiba and Shino? I thought they were coming with us." Naruto pouted.
"Uh well, Tsunade assigned them to a different mission at the last minute. So, it's just going to be us five." Kakashi announced. "Well, now that everything's settled, I guess we better get going."
Five seconds after Kakashi declared that, they went off. As they we running through the forest, though, they spotted some suspicious ninja.
"Kakashi sensei," Naruto purred. "are you sure we shouldn't check on what they're doing? They looked pretty weird. And they seemed like they knew something."
"Naruto, we're on a far more important mission. Don't worry about them. If it will make you feel any better, I'll just send Tsunade a note about it later OK?" Kakashi said.
"Humph, OK."Naruto whined.
Six hours later, they finally reached the border of the Land of Fire.
"OK guys," Kakashi said. "we can rest here."
"Hai, Kakashi-sensei." They all said.
"I also wanted to mention this," Kakashi announced. "don't waste energy on small unnecessary things that will get us nowhere. Save as much as you can and look after each other, and try to keep your temper under control." The second he realized what he had just said, He instantly paused, glared at Naruto for a few seconds, and then slouched. He clasped his hands together and looked up at the sky and thought to himself, 'Dear God, for the sake of my poor, innocent soul, please I beg of you, make this mission as easy and simple as possible.'
"Hey, Kakashi-sensei, I can control my temper!"
"Sure you can Naruto." Kiba sang as sarcastically and as loud as he could.
Soon they all started to laugh and giggle at them. Except for Sai, who didn't find this to be 'humorous'. Apparently, he didn't find most of the things they all laughed at to be 'humorous'. He was always wondering what was funny to them and why it didn't appeal to him.
Soon, what was just a little joke turned into a war. Kiba and Naruto were spitting out as much insults and names they can think of as fast as they can.
Kakashi look over and looked up at the sky again, then mumbled, 'You're not going make this easy for me, are you?'
Mean while, when Kakashi was sulking, Sakura and Hinata were trying their best to make them stop fighting. But to no avail, the attempt failed miserably. They gave up and went to a nearby stream to get fresh drinking water.
After awhile of spitting out insults, Naruto and Kiba were breathing heavily. Then they stared at each other, and started up again.
"Baka, Naruto!" Kiba shouted.
"You should be one to talk stupid, you couldn't even find your own way home once!' Naruto replied.
"Well at least I don't have some random whiskers on my face that make me look like a cat!" Kiba remarked.
"You take that back!"
"No way, if it bothers you that much I'm not taking it anywhere."
"Both of you sit down and shut up! Stop fighting this instance and apologize to each other, make up, and put this all behind you understand?" Kakashi exploded at them.
"Uh," was all they managed to say before Kakashi started yelling at them again.
"Also, if I catch you two fighting again on this mission I will severely punish you and make this mission personally the most agonizing one you have ever had! Do you understand?" he hissed.
Kiba and Naruto were scared to death. They turned pure, pale white, and became as stiff as a board. Even Kakashi could've sworn they were in half dead mode. All they did was, get up, bow, and say both to Kakashi and each other, "I am sorry for my inappropriate behavior. Please excuse me."
After that terrible display, at first Kiba and Naruto got up, and walked calmly towards the forest. Later however, they started to run. Both Naruto and Kiba rushing towards the forest, but unfortunately, on their way, Naruto tripped on his own feet and dragged Kiba down with him. They ran into the forest and only stopped after they were out of Kakashi's ear-shot range and campsite.
Shortly after stopping, both of them were panting and wheezing deeply. Their faces were as red as tomatoes and they were completely exhausted.
"Wow." Kiba said, trying to catch their breath, "He's even scarier than Tsunade when she's mad. I feel bad for you."
Finally able to breathe right, Naruto said, "He's, he's not usually like that when he's mad."
Walking up from behind them, though, was Hinata and Sakura. Having heard their conversation, they decided to scare them.
"Hey." Sakura said in a deep voice that almost anyone could mistake as Kakashi's.
Naruto jumped up from his former position, trued as white as a ghost, and froze half way standing up.
"Oh, he froze." Hinata whispered.
"Ne, oh well let's just drag both of them back to the campsite." Sakura suggested while grabbing both boys by the collar.
As they were walking, Hinata looked nervous. She was blushing slightly and she began pointing her fingers together.
"A-ano, Sakura-chan, can I ask you a question?" Hinata begged.
"Uh, sure, what is it?"
"D-do y-you think-k I-I should t-tell Naruto that-t I-I-I l-like him?" she managed to spit out while turning as red as ever.
"Of- course I do! But you should tell him at the right moment or else he won't know how to respond. Maybe tomorrow, but you should just try and wait until you're alone or something, OK?" suggested Sakura.
"R-right, I'll tell him tomorrow. No problem." Hinata said, full with determination.
But in her mind, she though completely differently. 'Oh, I hope I can actually tell him tomorrow. Uh, this is not going to be easy is it?' she thought.
A/N:
