CHAPTER 3-THE LEGEND
"Your training is to find a certain item that you are assigned to. I will also give you certain instruction on the certain item that you are assigned to." "Ok, Group 1 you will need to find a scroll I hidden in this part of the forest. Trust your instinct and you will find that item but …be careful there are dozens of scrolls so you need to chose the right one or else …you will pay up for your consequences for choosing the wrong scroll." Group 1 felt the chills run down their spins after hearing what Kakashi-sensei instructed them. "Group 2 you need to find a book but it is not an ordinary book. It is hidden west from here. Never trust what you see with your eyes but see through the truth or else…you will never find the item." Finally, Group 3 you need to find this certain item that is very difficult and different than the other groups." They were all dying to hear what so different between the other groups. "You need to a petal of a Sa…kur…a tree." "WHAT" they all said with a surprised look on their faces. "How on earth are they going to find a petal of a Sakura tree? Naruto asked with a question look on his face. "Hey, I haven't finish explaining what they have to do. You have to find a certain Sakura petal. It has to be a different color, to make this simple you have to find a Sakura petal that has a darker color than the rest of the normal petals. "Hey Kakashi-sensei, How on earth are we going to find a Sakura tree in this kind of area?" Sakura asked. "Patience Sakura, I haven't given you instructions yet. "There is a Sakura tree that bloom every 500 years near this forest. The Sakura tree is in this part of the forest but according to a prophecy I read from an ancient book that it is hidden somewhere in a cave near by here. But there is something special about this tree. Every year the tree chooses a very special person. That person is from the…. "Um… Kakashi-sensei, why did you stop? Naruto asked. "Well, I haven't finished the whole thing yet because the last page was missing. So I don't know who is the chosen person is. It might too risky because I have no clue what your up against. So, do you three accept this training especially you Sakura? With out hesitation Sakura immediately agree to the training first without even thinking what will she be up against. The only thing she cares is to make her stronger. Both Sasuke and Neji agree on the training on the same time. They were all staring at Sasuke and Neji after they both spoke. They were both glaring at each other. () Sasuke thinks that Neji wants a competition on who is the strongest and Neji thinks that Sasuke wants to get Sakura back. Every one was wondering especially Sakura, what Kakashi-sensei had just said. "I bet Kakashi-sensei thinks that the chosen person might be me. I think he knows more information but doesn't want to tell us. This must be very important to me. I can feel it inside me. But for some unknown reason, I don't really know what this feeling is."
"Ok, you have to go through a very large and blue outlined cave. It is very dark inside but only the chosen one can see through the darkness. That is only the beginning. Anyone can see through the darkness so the chosen person is not revealed yet. Then there is a trail of flowers that lead to the other side of the cave. But be careful, there are traps to stop you from going to your destination. When you found the tree there is a barrier about 10 ft away from the tree. There is a counter spell for this type of jutsu. But only the chosen one can perform this type of ninjutsu. There is a very big risk to this. The person who perform the jutsu and failed to break the barrier that person will be trap for eternity. There is only one chance for 2 of you to escape are the person who performs the jutsu. That person will chose who is release and who stays for…ETERNITY. That made it shot shivers to every one's spine. Oh and one more thing, only the chosen may enter to find this special Sakura petal. "Ok, we will start our training tomorrow morning. You will all meet here at 7 in the morning. So go pack your weapons and your other things you need for this mission and have a goodnight rest. "Sakura may I speak with you for a second when every one leaves." "Uh…sure," Sakura answered back. When every one left, only Kakashi and Sakura are the only ones who are still in the forest. "Sakura there is something that I want to fill you in but you have to keep this as a secret." "I think that I know what you are gonna say to me. You are going to tell me that I might be the chosen one. Right. I kinda figured out how you paired me up with 2 guys and 1 girl." "Correct, this might be dangerous so I am going to ask you again. Do you accept this training? With a quick answer, Sakura answered, "Yes, I will accept this training." "Ok, try to keep this a secret to the boys because I know that they won't let you go through with this and keep this in mind that there is a total of 60 traps in all. There is 10 traps in the cave, 20 traps on the trail of flowers, 10 traps near the other side of the cave and 20 traps near the tree. Also I want to tell you that once you are inside the barrier there are traps there too. So you must be careful because you are on your own once you are inside the barrier. "You may leave now to pack your weapons and other things you need for this task and get a goodnight rest. "Ok, see you tomorrow Kakashi-sensei. Oh and there is one more thing I want to tell you, this is mostly an A to S-rank mission more than training." "You know Sakura, you are a very smart and intelligent girl." "I'll take that as a compliment." With that, she was walked out of the forest till she disappears. Sakura arrived back at home and she started to pack her things for tomorrow's training. The others have started to pack their things too.
