I jaunted off into the backwoods behind the compound to hone on my taijutsu, keeping in mind that I had to appear in the compound earlier than usual for a checkup with Sutoshima-san.

If father found out I was outside at all he's surely incarcerate me...
I soon entered an infiltrate and minuscule clearing that seemed to be used often for a while. "That's funny I don't recall coming here before..." I consider aloud.

That meant an unknown had been training in the Haruhara territory. "Eh, what do I care? Let my danm father worry over this petty thing." I said disdainfully.

Claiming the expanse all to myself I started devouring a dented tree stump with my fist until my knuckles bled. I moved onto another tree butt kicking it with my right leg with all the force I had until I felt like my muscles were tearing apart.

I hadn't even broken a sweat. I was in deep concentration I wouldn't have known if someone was coming even if they waltzed right in view. "Who's there?" but I'm not that doltish either. I immediately stopped my vigorous training to scan the outer trees behind me.

I saw nothing of particular threat, but I couldn't get rid of the feeling that someone was watching me. I returned my assiduity slowly and shrewdly back towards the tree butts I was kicking. "Aaagh, what the hell?" I yell startled flinching backwards.

There a top a tall stump sat a green jump suit wearing, bushy eye browed, coconut head. His eyes were wide and round scanning my figure curiously. I shivered under his gaze. A sudden realization came forth in my being which caused me to act without thought.

"It's you!" I yell pointing shamelessly at Lee. The first clue in were his abnormally large eyebrows, his bowl cut hair came in second and his cute little round eyes... I mean his weird little round eyes. I sweat dropped towards his whole outfit.

"What happened to you?" I asked rudely. Rock Lee raised an eyebrow causing me to twitter. "What do you mean?" he asked unaffected. I leaned against a tree abaft to me crossing my arms.

"Well you were cuter when you were younger that's for sure." I mumbled waving my hand to distract him from listening in on me. Unfortunately for me he did hear. He reddened.

I quickly lapsed back to my blunt attitude, standing straight from my leaning position I add abruptly, "But now you just look plain weird!" I felt my face heat up, embarrassed for slipping over words like that.

Lee's flustered face faltered he stared into my eyes with determination. I awkwardly held his gaze. "Remember when I said I would become a ninja?" he asked randomly. I furrowed my brows; if he came all the way here just to mock me...I nodded faintly. Lee grinned and pointed towards his waist.

My eyes widened and jealousy took over. I glanced back up at Lee with a glare. I've wanted to become a ninja for so long, we both have related in capabilities, but he still got a chance. Here I am moping about my life and there he goes living his own.

I was so furious I punched the closest thing next to me with all the force of my being. The tree I stood next to almost toppled over. It tipped to the left an enormous hole fully visible as I retreated battered my fist.

Tears threatened the rim of my eyes. I slowly glanced over to Lee enraged and envious. Lee was ample with surprise/worry. "Nono-chan didn't you know you could join the academy--" "Of course I knew doofus, and don't call me Nono-chan!" I shot back before he could finish.

I started to think that he really was mocking me, but a wave of sorrow slapped my anger. I ogled his eyes disconsolately, "I told you Lee, my father would never approve." I replied softly. "Nono where are you?" boomed my father's voice through the shrubs. "Speak of the devil..." I whispered.

I turned around away from a confused Lee. Dread picked up as I started to run en route of the compound. Knowing my father, I knew I'd be punished for being late to Sutoshima-san's appointment and because he had to call for me, I can't believe I got held back by Lee.

"Maybe I can convince your father--" "Gah what? No!" I said startled by his sudden appearance. He was following me. "If my father see's you with me he'll definitely kill you." I told him dead on stopping my sprint.

He stopped beside me. "Not that I care about your well being or anything." I quickly add turning red. My mouth slipped for the second time. I buffed and returned to my burst of speed home to hell. Little did I know Lee secretly following me above the tree branches?
Rest In Results
As I reached the main branch pavilion I hurried to go inside the back door of the kitchen. I froze literally in fear. My father was beyond raging, he stood in the entrance tall, mighty and evil.
