AN: Sorry for the prolonged update. I was giving Mr. Lazy my undivided attention. Anyway since I know you guys don't read the authors note lets get down to business. Thanks for the 31 reviews! Anyways here's the awaited 4th chapter!
Chapter 4: My decision.
"Ready… set … GO!" and the 3 ninjas went off into the clearing. Sasuke and Sakura quickly went to hide while Naruto stood 15 feet away from Kakashi's standing figure. 'What the hell is he doing!' thought Sakura. "I am no coward Kakashi sensei! I'm not going to hide come fight me now!" Naruto screamed grinning. "You're a bit odd..." Kakashi said while staring at him. "Well alright… I guess if you want to now. The first lesson is taijutsu. Come and attack me Naruto. Remember no ninjutsu." Kakashi said and then as an after thought took out his icha icha paradise book.
'What the hell! Oh damn I forgot about this. That bastard! He's going to take out his pervert novel while fighting me. That's Kakashi sensei for you. Ah well… lets have some fun.' Naruto thought before he vanished in a poof of smoke. Kakashi narrowed his eyes. 'He disappeared. How did he even learn how to do that? I didn't even learn that jutsu until I was a chunnin.' He thought before looking around to find him. 'Hell! I can't even feel his chakra signature!' He thought. "Naruto? are you even here?" he asked then sighed. He could faintly feel a chakra signature that felt vaguely familiar to Naruto's. 'Ahhh. So he is here' he thought.
Naruto quickly appeared behind Sasuke and put a hand behind Sasuke's mouth so he wouldn't make any noise. "You can start making the traps anytime you want" Naruto whispered into his ear. Sasuke shivered from the fact that Naruto was oh so close to him and nodded his head. "Tell Saukra" Sasuke whispered. Naruto nodded his head in approval and disappeared in a poof of smoke. After he told the same thing to Sakura He quickly appeared beside Kakashi and snatched the novel from his hand. And all too quickly poof right back 15 feet away from Kakashi. "Naruto give me back my book RIGHT NOW!" Kakashi yelled. Naruto ignored him.
"You know Kakashi sensei for the great copy cat ninja your kind of slow. I could have easily grabbed the bells instead of this god forsaken book…" Naruto said grinning. 'Time to stall…' he thought. "Na-ru-to!" Kakashi said glaring at him. Naruto ignored him once again and began to read the book out loud so others could hear him.
"Oh Rick!" she said in a fake girly voice. "I love you too. I love you so much."
"Oh really" Naruto said in a deep boyish voice. "Well if you love me so much let's make love together. Kelly." "Ok Rick "she said happily and began to strip off his clothes. All too soon they were naked. "Oh my gosh Rick your so BIG!"
In the middle of the woods Sasuke and Sakura could hear Naruto reading more and a blush quickly rose to their faces.
Kakashi quickly charged towards Naruto ready to teach the boy a lesson. Naruto dogged the kick and tucked the book in the back of his pocket. And quickly jumped away from him. With Kakashi hot on his heals Naruto did the necessary seal and screamed Tyishin- Kai- no jutsu! Quickly a black cat suddenly appeared and jumped on Kakashi's face scratching him for his life.
"Jesus! What the hell" he screamed as he tried to pull the cat off his face. As soon as he threw the cat on the floor it disappeared in a poof of smoke. Kakashi quickly searched for Naruto and found him 100 away. "I want my book Now Naruto" Kakashi said. "Yeah well. It is such a lovely book. I don't want to give it to the wrong hands… So I'll just burn it" he said happily. Kakashi looked at him in horror. Naruto just continued smiling at him a stupid grin on his face. Kakashi suddenly looked serious.
"Naruto that's the special edition. And I've only read it only. If you want to get out of this clearing alive… You will give me my book." He said in a deadly voice.
"Oh goodness I didn't know it was special edition. I could never burn Jiraiya's special edition." Naruto said in sudden realization. Kakashi relaxed, suddenly happy no harm would come to his book. "Thank god you finally understand-
Naruto cut in "Oh no you had me all wrong. I won't burn the book I'll just" and suddenly everyone could hear a loud tear throughout the woods. And more sounds of tears and more…
'Aren't you going a bit too far…Kakashi will kill you' Sakura thought.
Kakashi looked at Naruto like he just lost his mind… He kept staring and staring until Naruto ripped the last page out of the book. The last paper floated gently onto the grass...
Silence. No bird chirped for they knew they were going to see a genin die today. Suddenly Kakashi charged at him. Ready to give the boy a thorough beat down.
Kakashi threw a kunai at Naruto and it hit its intended target. Naruto turned into a poof of smoke. Kakashi looked at the floor and also saw the pages that had been ripped out had also disappeared into a poof of smoke.
"Kakashi-sensei!" Naruto called out.
Kakashi twirled around and saw Naruto at the clearing. Naruto was holding up the orange book high in the air safe and unharmed and especially unripped. "How did you- "Don't worry about that Kakashi-sensei"Naruto said grinning an evil smirk. "Kage-Bunshin-no Jutsu!" Naruto shouted. Soon there were about 50 clones all surrounding Kakashi. "I Thought I said we were only going to do taijutsu"he said in a lazy tone. 'He can produce this many clones! Ok, I'm slightly impressed' he thought to himself/
Naruto sighed and released all the clones he made. "You have yet to try to capture at least one of the bells. Don't you want to pass?" he asked.
"Don't ask stupid questions Kakashi-sensei…Of course I want to pass I'm just stalling" He said in that's so obvious tone. Kakashi's eyes widened. 'Stalling for what. They're actually working together?... maybe they actually understand what this is all about, Maybe they know about such a word as teamwork…' A second later a red chakra ball went high into the sky and disappeared. 'That's my queue' Naruto thought. "Alright Kakashi-sensei If you don't want your book to be seriously destroyed. Come catch me!" he said and headed into the trees. Kakashi followed although he knew that it was obvious trap. After he ran for a couple of minutes he stopped when he saw his book lying innocently on the floor. Another obvious trap. "Alright you guys. Time to come out. Its almost 12." He said in a bored voice.
Three kunai came whizzing towards him. He dodged effortlessly. 'Attaching head on will never work… Wait!' the kunai had strings attached to it and the strings circled quickly around Kakashi's feet making him unable to walk. He soon noticed that there were exploding notes on the strings. But unfortunately he noticed that a second too late. They soon blew up in his face.
Sakura jumped down onto the grass staring at the smoke to see if Kakashi was down or not. "Did you get him Sasuke?" Sakura asked. Seconds later Sasuke jumped down from his tree and stood besides Sakura. "Of course not. That was to easy." He said and sure enough as the smoke cleared a log stood in the place of Kakashi.
"Very good Sasuke. Kakashi said behind them. They quickly jumped away from him and into separate branches. "You set up a trap I'm impressed." He said. And began to walk towards him. A large net suddenly sprang up from Underneath Kakashi and held him high in the air. "Now Sakura!" Sasuke yelled. They both could see the bells that were sticking out of the net. Sakura jumped and made a grab for it and caught it!
Sakura was jumping for joy until she saw that Kakashi disappeared in a puff of smoke and the bells in Sakura's hands became two small rocks. 'Damn it! He tricked us!' Sasuke thought. "I'm so sorry Sasuke-kun. I thought I had them" she said feeling bad that she was of no use to her Sasuke-kun.
"Sorry Sakura.I guess You'll have to try harder… So I'm guessing that these woods are filled with traps. Well I guess that's a good idea but they wont help you" he said faking sadness.
"Sakura go hide. I'll face him" Sasuke whispered. Sakura nodded her head and ran away from the both of them and his in a nearby tree.
Kakashi soon appeared in front of him and smiled at Sasuke. Sasuke glared at him. "I will defeat you." Sasuke said. "Hmm. Say that after you have the bells" Kakashi said. Sasuke charged at him. Sasuke kicked him but Kakashi held his leg from actually doing damage. Then he twisted his body very quickly to aim a punch at him. But Kakashi held his arm. Sasuke aimed another kick for his face. Sasuke reached to grab the bell but only managed to touch it. Kakashi saw this and his eyes widened in shock. Kakashi soon ran out of hands to block and pushed Sasuke away from him. Sasuke already knowing what Kakashi was going to do back flipped and landed on his feet. He wasted no time to the necessary hand seals to d his famous jutsu. He quickly gathered chakra into his mouth and screamed "Goukakyuu no jutsu!" 'He's not suppose to be able to have that much chakra to execute that jutsu!' Kakashi thought while dodging the big flame ball that was heading towards him. Sasuke quickly jumped up to a tree branch remembering what Naruto told him just yesterday.
Flashback
"Suke-chan! Buy me more ramen PLEASE!" Naruto begged
"Hn."
"Is that a yes 'Hn' or a no 'Hn'" Naruto asked
"Yes you moron" Sasuke grumbled
"Naruto stop mooching off of Sasuke!" Sakura yelled but decided not to hit him in the presence of Sasuke. (Like that ever stopped her before ppfh. Give me a break)
Naruto ordered another ramen bowl and continued his conversation.
"Ok like I was saying. If the plan does work and you end up not knowing where Kakashi-sensei is remember to always stay up in the trees. Never the ground. Kay, Sakura? And I know you don't like me and stuff but please listen to me. The both of you…"
END Flash Back
Sasuke watched and saw Kakashi shoot up from under the ground and dusted himself off. Sasuke jumped out of the tree and faced him.
"Very good Sasuke your reflexes are excellent. I would have buried you underground if you didn't move just in time." Kakashi said happily. Sasuke smirked. "I am an Uchiha. I always know." He said and went behind his back to take out Kakashi's pervert novel. Sasuke waved it at him tauntingly. "Want it come and get me. I won't even fight you. I promise. I'm not a pervert anyway" he said smirking.
Kakashi eyed him suspiciously. Not fully trusting him. Kakashi reached up to grab the book but had to move his hand back because a kunai was thrown exactly where his hand was just moments ago. But Sasuke did not throw the kunai. Someone from the trees did and Kakashi had a pretty good idea who it was.
Naruto.
"But Kakashi sensei. I thought you wanted the book back" Sasuke said smirking "Well… If you don't want it then…Do know that this is the real book." He said before ripping the cover. Kakashi's eyes widened before reaching out and grabbing the book. This time Naruto appeared directly between Sasuke and Kakashi before grabbing Kakashi's outstretched hand and flipping him onto the floor. No one seemed to notice that Naruto's other hand casually grabbed to two bells on Kakashi's waist.
Kakashi ended up getting thrown to the floor 10 feet away from him. Kakashi also ended up springing up another trap and a net flew up underneath him and held him high in the air. A clock alarm rang signaling that it was 12:00. Sakura jumped off the tree and joined them. "I can't believe its 12:00 already. We didn't even get the bells." Kakashi managed to get himself out of the net and walked towards them. "What are you talking about? Of course I got the bells Sakura-chan." Naruto said happily and dangled them in the air. Kakashi searched his waist to make prove that it was infact gone. Sasuke smirked while Sakura smiled happily.
Inner Sakura: We did it. I'm going to be a ninja with Sasuke-kun. Hell Yeah!
"Well come on you three. I made lunches for you" Kakashi said with a sigh. And all three headed towards the memorial stone to eat.
Three minutes later…
While everyone sat down and ate their food. Kakashi popped up the question.
"So… Which one of you two are going to be genin. After all there are only two bells." He said while staring at the stone. All three genin froze. Even Naruto didn't expect that.
"But Kakashi-sensei I thought that the whole reason for this was to make up a plan and work as I team. Together. I thought that the bells weren't important…" Naruto said. He felt the pit of his stomach drop. "Yes well as I said before there are only two bells and there are 3 of you. One of you has to go…" Kakashi said and readied his ear for the screaming that was about to come. He could almost hear Naruto screaming that he deserved to pass because he has to become Hokage and Sasuke yelling that he has to become a ninja and Sakura screaming that she would be a better ninja than Naruto. But instead he heard silence…
Kakashi turned his gaze away from the memorial stone and to the three genin on the floor. They all looked sad. 'That's new. No arguing?'Kakashi thought.
They weren't arguing because they were all thinking.
'What's going to happen now? I want to stay in the group but I don't want Sasuke to leave. Not even Naruto. I mean its kind of fun having him around. He has really good ideas and he makes the place seem brighter.' Sakura thought.
'I need to become a ninja but I don't want Naruto gone. He was the one who got the bells in the first place. And although he acts dumb, he really isn't. Not to mention he's really cute and I sort of like him. I can already imagine. Doing missions with him. The only reason I don't want Sakura gone because that would make Naruto sad to see Sakura back in the academy…' Sasuke thought.
'What have I done? IT wasn't suppose to happen like this. Have I changed time?
This is all might fault. I have to fix this. Sasuke and Sakura deserve to be genins. I already know that I am ANBU quality.' Naruto thought.
After a moments silence Naruto spoke up.
"I'll leave" Naruto said quietly.
"But Naruto this was your plan. Any you even got the bell." Sakura said.
"She's right dobe.If anyone should leave its one of us." Sasuke said.
"No guys its ok.You guys should be genin. Sakura is very smart and she has amazing chakra control. And as for you Sasuke. You don't belong back in the academy. We all know that." Naruto said and got up off the ground. "Kakashi it was fun" Naruto said smiling and began to walk off.
Sakura and Sasuke stared at him as he began to walk off.
Kakashi was about to stop him and tell them that they already passed but Sakura and Sasuke beat him to it.
" "NO!"" they shouted and ran after him.
"Forget it Kakashi- sensei. If he leaves then we leave too." Sakura said defiantly.
Sasuke nodded his head in agreement. 'Screw being a ninja. I wont leave him high and dry. Beside I need to figure out these feelings I have for him.'
"Well that's too bad because I was going to tell you that all of you passed. I don't care if you like each other. The point of this test was to see if you knew what a ninja meant. If you knew that although you dislike each other you are willing to work together because that's what comrades do. Also You also know never to leave your comrade in danger or high and dry no matter what the consequences. Leaving your comrades high and dry are considered as scum. "Kakashi finished with a grin. You could tell because his visible eye was curved in an upside down U.
"So we passed" Naruto asked
"Yes you passed." Kakashi said smiling and Naruto grinned.
Sakura quickly snatched onto Sasuke's arm and began to talk about how cool he fought. But Sasuke wasn't really paying attention to her. He was staring at Naruto who was also staring back at him. Time seem to slow down for the both of them as they just stared at each other. Naruto winked at him and Sasuke just smiled.
"SASUKEKUN! You're smiling." Sakura exclaimed.
"Huh?" Sasuke blinked and looked at Sakura and then scowled. He quickly shakes his arm away from the vice like grip. Sakura got the hint and gave him his personal space, although she was still smiling.
"Suke-chan we did it! Naruto said happily and tackled him to the floor and began to snuggle with him.
Sasuke blushed crimson unable to speak.
Kakashi just stared at them with his eyebrow slightly raised. 'Are the snuggling!' he thought with a confused expression on his face. 'What the hell is going on?' he asked himself.
"Naruto! Get off of Naruto now! You act as if you like him!" Sakura bellowed.
'Shut up you bitch' Sasuke thought still blushing.
"And so what if I do. My Sasuke-kun! You can't have him! Suke-chan can you buy me some ramen PLEASE?" Naruto begged.
Everyone stared at him.
"Um. Naruto you just basically exclaimed that your gay." Kakashi said.
"Actually I'm bi because Sakura's down right hot too." Now it was time for Sakura turn to blush.
Naruto got up and dusted himself off. "Actually Sakura since your not busy today I was wondering if you'd go on a date with me?"Naruto asked winking at her.
Sasuke scowled and stood up off the floor
"You can't flirt with both of us." Sasuke said to Naruto
"Why not?" He asked
"Because dobe you just cant" Sasuke said looking at Naruto as if he had a brain.
"Why do you care…? What do you like me Sasuke? Would you like it if I kissed you instead of her" Naruto asked innocently.
Sasuke glared at him although he couldn't stop the blush that was steadily rising on his cheeks.
"Of course I wouldn't care. Why would I want to kiss a dobe like you who just happens to be a guy?" Sasuke said.
'Liar. You would love it if he kissed you. You damn well know that kiss in the academy wasn't enough. You want more. You want to taste each and every part of Naruto's mouth that is called heaven. You want to-
"Are you sure" Naruto asked bringing Sasuke out of his thoughts.
"Of course I'm sure dobe now let's to get your ramen and stop asking stupid questions." Sasuke said.
"OOOk. So I have to go to the Hokage right now. Meet me back at the bridge for your first real mission.Ja!" and in a poof Kakashi was gone.
"Yay ramen! Sakura want to join us? Sasuke's paying" Naruto said with joy. He was dead happy that he was getting free ramen. Whether Naruto was 19 or 12 Naruto loved ramen. And free ramen tasted even better.
"Yeah ok" Sakura said and headed off to the ramen bar.
30 minutes later…
"Damnit Naruto you had 9 bowls of ramen! 9!" Sakura bellowed then sighed.
"Anyhow guys I have to go home. See you tomorrow Sasuke-kun!" she said happily and left the ramen stand.
Sasuke left the money for the bill on the table and stood up. "Yeah I'm going to leave to. See you tomorrow dobe and walked out of the stand. After walking a block away Sasuke could hear Naruto calling his name. Sasuke turned around and saw Naruto running towards him.
When Naruto reached up to him Naruto pulled Sasuke's body flush against his and kissed him squarely on the lips. Sasuke gasped and that gave Naruto a chance to dive his tongue into Sasuke's mouth to taste him thoroughly. Sasuke knew people were probably watching but at the moment he could give a damn. Naruto kissed him harder and Sasuke moaned.
Kami-sama…
Naruto…
