Hiruzen watched attentively as Sakura-sensei sparred with Homura. The other boy had asked Sakura-sensei for some help on his taijutsu and she was more than willing to help.
Hiruzen winced as Homura hit the ground with a wet sounding smack.
Someone laughed.
Hiruzen turned, surprised to see that Danzō had come up beside him. "How long have you been there?" Hiruzen demanded, knowing Tobirama-sensei would beat him senseless for being so unwary.
"What an idiot," Danzō scoffed, eyes dark and glinting as he stared at the sparring duo.
Sakura-sensei was guiding Homura slowly through a low punch. Hiruzen's brow furrowed.
Homura knew that move already.
Tobirama-sensei taught it to them months ago.
"The bastard's asking for it," Kagami said, Sharingan active and spinning.
Hiruzen jumped. "Seriously, what technique are you guys using?"
"It's a modified Shunshin technique that Sakura-sensei taught us," Torifu said, watching the demonstration with a frown. "Homura is just trying to piss you off, Kagami. He knows how jealous you get." Torifu snorted, glancing over at Tobirama-sensei. "It looks like Tobirama-sensei knows it too."
Tobirama strode over to the two, countenance stormy. He spoke in low tones to Sakura who began to laugh merrily. She patted Homura heartily on the back, nearly knocking him over before stepping out of Tobirama's way. He took Sakura's place before Homura, barking orders.
Hiruzen glanced at the members of Team Three, all three directing glares and scowls Homura's way. Hiruzen shook his head, before smiling and greeting Sakura-sensei as she came over to them.
Homura was a dead man, one way or another.
