Chapter 7- Back to the shop
When they left the ramen shop, everyone was full. Steven wouldn't stop burping, which caused Sakura to not want to be next to him, Naruto had a satisfied look on his face walking with his hands behind his head, Renji was carrying Ashley on his back and walking with Ichigo, Rukia was walking with Sasuke and Shikamaru, and Becky was on Kakashi's back again. Becky pointed at Ashley and started to giggle. Becky had noticed that Ashley had fallen asleep while Renji was carrying her.
When they arrived at Urahara's shop, everyone went down the ladder into the training area. Kakashi and Renji came to find that Becky and Ashley have fallen asleep. "We should set them down somewhere." Renji suggested. "But where? This is all rock and concrete." Kakashi replied. Shikamaru stepped in with a 'strategy'. "Why don't two of us take off our vests and set them under their heads for support?" Naruto made a sour looking face, "Or we could just wake their lazy butts up." Naruto sarcastically suggested. "No. Don't do that. They haven't slept in like, three days." Steven said while spacing out. "Why haven't they been sleeping?" Ichigo asked. "Because they play to many video games and they like to read until the wee hours of the morning." Steven shrugged and kept on spacing out.
"Ok, well whose going to volunteer to give up their vest while they sleep?" Kakashi asked. Nobody volunteered. Kakashi sighed and took off his vest. "Kakashi, she's starting to slip off of me." Renji stated. Kakashi asked Ichigo to hold onto Becky for a moment so he could take off his vest. He folded his vest in a way to be used as a pillow and set it on the ground. Kakashi then took Becky back from Ichigo and put her back on his back. "Go ahead, ill let Ashley use my vest. Who's going to let Becky use their vest?" Kakashi said once again. Once again nobody raised their hands. "What is wrong with lending your vest?" Kakashi said kind of agitated while Becky was still on his back. "We need our vests Kakashi-Sensei." Naruto said with his hand behind his head still making a sour face. "Your all so troublesome." Shikamaru said while taking his vest off and giving Naruto a nasty and annoyed look. Shikamaru did the same thing Kakashi did with his vest and looked at Kakashi giving him a look of confirmation to put Becky down. As Kakashi put Becky down, Urahara came down the ladder.
"Whoa, what happened to them?" Urahara said kind of shocked and worried. "Nothing they just downed three bowls of ramen and passed out." Steven replied with a little smirk on his face. "Also the lack of about three days sleep" Naruto said in a giggly voice. Urahara smirked a bit. "Ok then I guess if you want, call me when they wake up and start training and I'll be upstairs." he said as he pointed up. "Ok Mr. Hat and clogs." Ichigo said while Rukia nodded to Urahara. Urahara looked a Steven who was still spacing out. "Would you like to come with me Steven? We could talk about your changes and what you might end up experiencing in the future." Steven nodded and got up then followed him up the ladder.
Kakashi decided to make different pairings for sparring. He made Naruto and Sasuke spar, of course, Sakura and Rukia were sparring (Rukia is a soul reaper again and has all her powers back ok? Ok.) Ichigo and Renji decided to spar with each other. Since Kakashi was being the supervisor, Shikamaru didn't have any one to spar with, he decided to take a nap with Becky and Ashley.
A vibration through the ground awoke Ashley. She opened her eyes and saw Sasuke getting out of a rock and Naruto smirking and giving him a thumbs up. She rolled over to poke Becky but came to see that it was Shikamaru who was laying there. Shikamaru was laying in-between Becky and herself. She then leaned over Shikamaru and poked Becky. As Ashley was leaning over Shikamaru, her hair tickled his arm and made him twitch, which caused Ashley to jump. Ashley thought that she had woken him up but he was still sound asleep. Becky jumped because she felt Ashley jump from Shikamaru's twitch. "What the hell are you doing?!" Becky whispered really loudly. "Nothing I just woke up!" Ashley whispered back. Becky looked around and then noticed something in the corner of her eye. She saw something out of the corner of her eye. Ashley looked at her makeshift pillow. "What the hell is that?" Becky asked. "I don't know." Ashley replied. "Give it to me, I wanna see what it is." Becky said. Ashley pulled out an object from a pocket on Kakashi's vest. When Becky got a hold of it, she discovered it was a book. Ashley and Becky knew Kakashi all to well and already knew what it was. "Ashley, we got some icha icha paradise hahaha!"
Becky and Ashley sat there leaning over Shikamaru just flipping through the pages to see what this guy was actually looking at. Becky went across a page that just made her and Ashley laugh hysterically. Ashley turned the page and all of a sudden, a hand comes up from in between them and turns the page back. "WOAHZ! You're awake?" Becky asked in a shocked way. "How long have you been awake for? I mean because I have been leaning over you this whole time." Ashley said. "Long enough to look at almost half the book with you." Shikamaru stated. Becky grinned at Ashley but Shikamaru couldn't see the expressions on their faces. Becky flipped around and started playfully hitting Shikamaru and Ashley quickly joined in. "You sick pervert!" Becky said while giggling and hitting. Shikamaru just started laughing. "Wow, he really does have energy sometimes." Ashley giggled.
Becky, Ashley and Shikamaru all stopped when they saw a shadow being casted over them. "Well its nice to know that your all awake." Kakashi said. Kakashi was standing there with his shirt off and sweating. "Uh… uhm…..he he." Becky and Ashley couldn't do anything but stutter at the gorgeous sight. Shikamaru looked at the babbling idiots. "And you say I'm the pervert." Becky slapped her hand over Shikamaru's mouth and kept it there without looking away from Kakashi. "Did you need something from your vest Kakashi?" Ashley kind of babbled. "Uhm, not necessarily. But it's a good thing that you are awake. We want to see what your abilities are." Becky had a confused look on her face.
Becky sat up, crossed her legs, and started to do weird hand motions. She was actually thinking. "Oh my god. She's actually thinking." Ashley said with a little giggle. Kakashi and Shikamaru looked at Ashley. "You mean she's slow or something?" Shikamaru asked. "No, but when she thinks, she really thinks. Not like what's 2 plus 2, more like what's the square root of 4225." Ashley replied in a serious tone. "65" Becky blurted out still doing her weird hand motions and thinking. "Becky what exactly are you thinking about?" Kakashi asked. "Ok. You, Naruto, Shikamaru, Sasuke, and Sakura all have different powers and abilities than Ichigo, Rukia, Renji and Urahara. So exactly, what abilities are you guys looking for?" Becky said looking straight into Kakashi's eye, almost looking straight through the one eye hidden by his mask. "We don't have nifty additions like you," she pointed to her left eye, "if you get what I'm saying." Kakashi immediately knew what Becky was talking about. Becky, Ashley, nor Steven had anything like sharingan. Not that he knew of any way. That was another reason why he wanted to see their abilities. Up until earlier, they didn't even know that they could wield a zanpaktou. "I understand that Becky. I see your logic. But I want you guys to try things, just like Urahara did with you guys in trying to wield a zanpaktou. I want to see if you have and abilities that would involve chakra. I know it might sound difficult but using chakra isn't that hard." "The only hard part is learning how to control it." said a smiling Naruto. "I understand. Well pair us up for training, and obviously not with each other." Becky said. "Ok well, I seriously don't want to pair up with Naruto. You can have him Becky." Ashley said who got up and headed towards Sasuke. "Ok Naruto, looks like I'm training with you." Becky said smiling and nudged up against Naruto like they were all buddy-buddy. Naruto blushed a little and said, "Okay!" and smiled wide. Shikamaru, Kakashi, Ichigo, Rukia, and Sakura all sat down to watch them spar. Ashley and Sasuke decided to let Becky and Naruto spar first and sat down with everyone else. Becky and Naruto got into their stances.
"Ready, set. GO!" Kakashi commanded.
