Okay so I've been on a role with this fic, but pretty soon the postings will become like before since I just got a new paper to write. -.- But I'm trying to get my stories on the same chapter so I can work on them both at the same time. I've also just got into Hellsing so I might have the guts to try a fic or two for that. I feel like I've lost your guys interest with this story, but oh well. I hope to gain more people for this as I continue writing it or I might just stop writing it all together and focus on my other Avengers fanfic. Idk yet.
*Disclaimer: I dont own Naruto. I dont have that pleasure. enjoy chapter 4.
Training went on for two hours before the two boys showed some progress. Sakura showed them how to do it easily and even gave them advice sometimes whle Kakashi supervised the two boys. Naruto surprisingly showed the first sign of progress he walked a few steps on the water before falling in. Kakashi allowed them to try more until Sasuke finally got the hang of it. It was twenty minutes later that Sasuke walked a few more steps and Kakashi called the end of training.
"Naruto." called Sakura waving him over.
"yes sensei?" he asked as he stopped in front of her.
"Have you thought about my offer of training you personally?" Sakura asked staring him in the eye.
Naruto nodded. "Yes I have and I would like it very much if you did." he smiled.
"Excellent. Starting tomorrow we will start with that portion of your training. I got this terrible feeling it will be needed in years to come." Sakura stated
A whole week past and the Chuunin Exams time arrived. Naruto has gained some control over Kyuubi but not much. In this time he has also grown under Sakura's wing as a ninja and with Sasuke as a teammate will pass the exams with no problem. Sakura and Kakashi walked the two boys to where they were to start the first round of testing.
"Sakura-sensei what if I lose control over the Kyuubi?" asks Naruto causing Sakura to stop with him. She looked at the boy and smiled slightly.
"Naruto-kun I'll come to save you then. Dont worry this is the written part of the exams if I remember correctly so there will be no fighting." consoled Sakura putting a hand on his head and messing up the hair. They smiled at each other and caught up with Kakashi and Sasuke. The two boys entered the building and Sakura sighed causing Kakashi to look over at her.
"I got this really bad feeling Kakashi-kun." Sakura expalined while a breeze played with her hair as she started to walk away prefering to be alone at the moment. Kakashi's eyes followed her til she was not in his view anymore and pondered what she could have meant by that before meeting up with the other senseis.
Sakura walked through the village praying that Naruto and Sasuke pass the first test. Her feet took her to the forest and she phased into her wolf form when she was positive that no one was around. As soon as she shifted Kyo walked out of the forest. They greeted each other with touch of the muzzles and ran to the wolf pack that was waiting a few paces away. Sakura hunted and ran with the pack for two hours before she heard a messager hawk and looked up. She shifted to her human form and allowed the bird to land on her arm before pulling the summon notice off its leg. The hawk then brushed its beak in her air before squaking in her face before flying off. Sakura laughed and read the summons and teleported to the Hokage Tower.
She appeared right in front of Sarutobi and the other Senseis. Some were amazed by her apperance, but those of the leaf smiled and greeted her.
"This is the Wolf of Konoha of legend?" asked a sand shinobi looking Sakura up and down.
Sakura looked at the man in amusement and stopped Sarutobi from repling to the man by holding up a hand. She eyed the man up and down and smirked.
"Yes I'm the Leaf's Guardian and you are?" spoke up Sakura
"I didnt know the leaf is allowing a woman to protect them. I didnt know that your village was that week to relay on a woman." sneered the man
Sakura disappeared in the blink of an eye and had one of her swords at the man's neck. "Now you were saying sand nin?" mocked Sakura with a smile.
"Nothing Sakura-hime" the man gulped. Sakura smiled before nodding to Sarutobi to continue.
Sakura sheathed her sword and walked back to Sarutobi's side. All the leaf nin had smiles on there faces when she did so. Sarutobi notified that the Gennin was done with the first test and said the results of each squad. Sakura smiled a wolfish grin when Naruto and Sasuke passed the test. Then she felt a prescence she hadnt felt for twenty-five years outside Sarutobi's window.
The meeting quickly ended and Sakura jumped through the window to look for the prescence. As suddenly as it came it was gone. She tried to pick up a scent, but all that came to her nose was the smell of the marketplace. 'Whoever it was knew how to evade my nose.' she thought and squinted her eyes into a pondering expression.
Sakura shooked her head to clear it of thought and went to find Naruto and Sasuke. It didnt take her long as she heard Naruto's loudmouth at the training field. She shook her head amused and landed in a tree next to the two boys and Kakashi.
"WE PASSED!" Naruto yelled happy and doing a little dance.
"Where is the next test at boys?" Sakura spoke up and everyone turned their heads to her.
"Forest of Death." replied Sasuke
"yeah and we have to be there early" pouted Naruto crossing his arms over his chest.
"Already? I'm sure the proctor for this exam is Anko-san like the last one was Ibiki-san. Therefore boys be careful. I felt a prescence earlier today while me and Kakashi were in a meeting with other Senseis. I dont know the intentions of this person, but if it was spying on the meeting then it cant be a good one." Sakura said while the two boys nodded their heads and Kakashi just stared at her surprised she hasnt notified the Hokage any of this. "Now go and get rest tomorrow is going to be a long test." ordered Sakura
Kakashi turned to her when the boys were out of earshot. "Why havent you've gone to Hokage-sama?" he asked
"I want to be absolutely sure I felt that and wasnt imagining things." Sakura replied. Kakashi nodded his head and then decided they should call it a day.
Sakura looked up at the setting sun and sat in the training field. She let her mind wonder about the prescnce and slowly it went to thoughts of the Sannin. Little bits of memories of her time with them went about in her heard in a whirl. 'No it cant be, but hes...' Sakura was doubled over from the onslaught of memories, breathing heavily. She stayed in that position til her breathing was calmed. Sakura denied her instincts for the first time in decades. She just couldnt believe it was Him. 'I need more evidence. I cant just go in there and give out a random name.' she thought as she got up from the ground and went to her compound as it was night out.
The wolf youkai fell onto her bed. Her eyes closed soon with a last thought going through her head...'Orochimaru, what are you doing back in the villiage?'
Thought I'd end it with a cliffhanger. Im evil. Im also trying to stay close to the events in Naruto as well while also keeping a sense of origianlity with with this fic. My next one that I also been thinking about doing is going to coming soon also i just need to get further in my the two fics Im writing now. Well hope you liked this chapter. Keep a look out for chapter 5.
