While we walked back to the village, we were silent. Finally, I couldn't take it anymore. I had to ask.
"How do you plan to get revenge?" I blurt out
"Kill Itachi"
"Well I understand that, but how do you plan to kill him? You do have a plan, don't you?"
"Of course"
"What is it?" I ask, curiously. I wait a minute, and he still hasn't answered. So I ask again
"What's your plan to kill Itachi?"
"Why should I tell you" I was startled by his answer, but before I could say anything we walked out of the forest. Before I could say goodbye, he started to walk away.
"Goodbye!" I call out to him as he walked away. He said nothing.
I was on my way home, when I heard a noise behind me
"Sakura!"
"Sakura!" I turned around, and I saw Naruto running up to me.
"Sakura, where were you? I've been searching all day!"
"Well then, what do you need?" I ask, getting a little annoyed.
"Kakashi Sensei said to meet tomorrow. He said that he has something to tell us. Oh, and have you seen Sasuke at all today?"
"No! Why would I have seen him today?" I ask, a little more defensively then I meant to.
"Sorry I asked. Well if you do see him today, could you give him the message for me?" I nodded, hoping that he would leave soon. "Thanks Sakura" he said, running off
As soon as Naruto was out of sight, I continued to walk home.
When I woke up the next morning, I remembered that we were meeting Kakashi Sensei today. I hurriedly got dressed and ate a quick breakfast. An hour later, I was out the door.
When I got to the bridge, Naruto was already there.
"Were you able to tell Sasuke that we're meeting today?"
"Yeah, I caught up to him on his way home"
"Ok"
A few minutes later, Sasuke arrived. And of course, Kakashi Sensei was later, but by now, we have gotten used to it. When he finally got there he told us
"We're going on a trip"
"Do you mean a mission kind of trip" asked Naruto, excitedly
"No. Like a training trip" I was curious about this trip we were taking, so I just had to ask
"What are we going to do on this trip?"
"Well, this is a camping trip" said Kakashi Sensei. This trip started to sound exciting
"When are we leaving" asked Naruto
"Now" Kakashi said, as he pulled two small packs out of his larger pack.
"These have emergency food, fire started, and blanket. Other than that, you have to rely on the outdoors to keep you alive. Now, let's get going" And he turned around, heading into the woods that Sasuke and I had practiced in yesterday
We had been gone about an hour now, and we had already passed the clearing that we were practicing in yesterday. We had come upon a small creek, were you could see little fish jumping about.
"Let's set up camp here" Kakashi Sensei said, as he pulled out two tents, a small one and a bigger one.
"Naruto, Sasuke and I will sleep in this one, and Sakura, you will sleep in this one" he said as he tossed the smaller tent to me.
"Naruto and Sasuke, come set up this tent. Sakura, you set up yours"
We both opened the tents, and while I went for the instructions first, the boys immediately started to set up the tent
"Something like this is easy!" declared Naruto. Ten minutes later, I had my tent set up, while the boys just had a pile of poles and fabric
"Now where does this go again? I give up!" said Naruto, as he reached for the instructions. When he was finally done, Kakashi told us that we should start dinner
"Now, we should get started on dinner. The food in your packs is only for in an emergency, in case you get lost. For now, we should go catch some fish"
So that's why we set up near a stream, I thought.
Half an hour later, both Sasuke and I had caught 3 fish each, while Naruto still had none.
"The fish just didn't come to me" said Naruto. No, you were just being too impatient, I thought, not saying it out loud, for I didn't want to hurt his feelings. But apparently Sasuke didn't feel that way
"You were being too loud. You were scaring the fish away, idiot"
"I was not being too loud!" Naruto yelled. Sasuke snickered, and that just made Naruto even angrier. The two just glared at each other the whole time the fish were cooking over the fire that Kakashi Sensei made. Oh boy I thought I wonder what tomorrow will hold for us…
AN: Ok, I hope this one's longer. I'm sorry if it's distracting as I try new things. I'm finding out new ways to do things, and I'm hoping I'll find my own style soon!
