Chapter 6
Kakashi's Training
It was at the crack of dawn, the sun was just rising and the sky was partially purple as the night was still strong.
Team 7 assembled at the training field they were all extremely tired as they waited for their sensei.
(2 Hours later)
"He's extremely late again" Sasuke said to his tired teammates "Yep" Naruto and Sakura said in unison as they sat in the open field.
A few minutes passed of pure silence, the wind blew calmly until Kakashi had finally appeared. "Good morning everyone" Kakashi said while waving. The team turned around to see their sensei. Kakashi was instantly scolded by Naruto and Sakura for being late. "Well you see I decided to take the long way, anyways let's begin" Kakashi said.
"Ah all set up" Kakashi said as he put a clock on a tree stump. "Your assignment is simple, the clock is set for noon all you have to do I get these bells from me before then" Kakashi said as he jingled the bells appropriately. "Punishment fot not getting the bell is being tied up to these post, with no lunch"
"So that's why he told us to have no breakfast" Naruto said disappointed. "FUCK" Naruto whispered under his breath. "Damnit, this isn't going to be as easy as I thought" Sasuke thought.
"Hey Sasuke bet I could a bell before you do" Naruto said.
"Yeah right, just don't get in my way" Sasuke replied.
"Hey that's my line" Naruto said with a grin as he knew the competition was on for those bells.
Sakura pointed out an important thing "Wait, there are only two bells" Sakura said. "Yep, whoever doesn't get a bell gets sent back to the Academy" Kakashi said with an eye smile. "Alright the rules, you can use any ninja weapon and if you don't come at me with the "intent" to kill you're not getting a bell" Kakashi said holding up the bells. "Aren't ninja weapons too dangerous" Sakura said nervously. "Yeah especially if you couldn't dodge our pranks" Naruto said fixing his headband. "Usually class clowns are the losers" Kakashi said with a mocking tone.
One word stuck out to Naruto, loser he heard that word said at him many times. "I'll prove to them I'm not a loser" Naruto thought as he let his anger get the best of him. He rushed Kakashi with a kunai which ultimately failed as Kakashi redirected Naruto's hand at himself "Did I say start? No, but you did come at me with the "intent" to kill. Looks like I'm starting to like this group."
Kakashi let go of Naruto and said "GO!"
The three genin disappeared in different directions as Naruto threw a smoke bomb. The smoke soon dissipated as the only person on the field were a Naruto with arms crossed and the white-haired jonin. "What are you trying to do" Kakashi questioned the blond. "No hiding, one on one" Naruto said.
"Dumbass, what is he doing?" Sasuke thought while watching from the trees.
"Ninja Lesson 1: Taijutsu" Kakashi said as he began to pull something out of his pouch. "If it's taijutsu, then why he is taking out a weapon?" Naruto thought. Kakashi revealed his so called "weapon" to be a book. "You can't read and fight" Naruto explained "Well with your weak attacks, sure I can" Kakashi said as he continued to read. Irritated Naruto rushed Kakashi with a flurry of attacks which Kakashi dodged with ease. Naruto dashed for a punch and to his amazement his sensei got behind him.
"B-b-bu-but how!?" Naruto questioned as Kakashi made a hand sign, "If he doesn't get out of there he's done for" Sakura and Sasuke thought. "You shouldn't let your enemy get behind you". "I am so screwed" Naruto thought to himself.
"I'm gonna get violated aren't I" Naruto said as he glanced behind him. "Leaf Village Secret Finger Jutsu: One Thousand Years of Death" Kakashi cried as he poked Naruto in the behind with a hand sign "Yep, I just got violated". Soon Naruto went flying in the air "I'm blasting off again" Naruto cried as went flying away in the river.
"Um erm I don know what to think about the jutsu sensei did, if it is even a jutsu" Sasuke thought
Suddenly from out of nowhere Kakashi heard something. "Shadow Clone Jutsu" Naruto cried as he summoned 7 clones, each of them rushed at Kakashi with a kunai in hand. "So that was a shadow clone huh, interesting" Kakashi thought.
"So his story was true" Sasuke grinned. "Wow those are real clones" Sakura said in amazement. "So the rumors are true huh?" Kakashi said as the 8 Narutos rushed him.
One Naruto rushed up with his kunai, Kakashi dodged easily and kicked the clone the same went for 5 more clones. "Let's go" Naruto said to his last 3 clones "Yeah" they responded. The clones rushed out "I didn't want to use this technique, I was hoping the shadow clones would be good enough"
The Narutos threw up many kunai and shurikens in the air, and Naruto began to do the proper hand signs. (Tiger - Ox - Dog - Rabbit - Snake) "Wind Style: Great Breakthrough" the Narutos cried as all the kunai/shurikens in the air soon shot forward with great speed. When the kunai were about to hit, to the team's shock, their sensei disappeared and a log got pelted with the weapons. "Substitution Jutsu huh? At this rate I won't find a single opening" Sasuke thought to himself.
"Darn it where is he?" Naruto said as he dispersed his clones. Naruto looked around and saw a bell on the ground. "It's way too convenient, but I'm gonna have to take that risk" Naruto grabbed the bell unwillingly but was soon caught in a simple rope trap. Sasuke slapped his forehead at his dumbfounded rival. "You think it's that easy to get these bells?" Kakashi asked as he reclaimed the bell.
"Hm he might use substitution jutsu again but now's my chance. Sorry Naruto but I need those bells" Sasuke said as he threw a barrage of shuriken. As Kakashi was about to continue he soon got darted by shurikens. Sasuke's prediction was right Kakashi used another substitution jutsu. "My position is compromised, I have to rush out or hide" Sasuke thought. "Sasuke-kun?" Sakura said as she saw the raven now in the open. "So you're up next" Kakashi said as he waved at Sasuke.
"Sasuke don't underestimate him" Naruto said.
"Says the one who's got caught in a simple trap" Sasuke retorted.
"Well I guess it's time to get serious"
"Hm? What do you mean?"
"You could say I've been playing from the sidelines" as Naruto dispersed in a white cloud.
"So he was a shadow clone that whole time, it's starting to make sense. That smokebomb was what began it all, so Naruto used it as cover for his escape. Not a half bad plan I admit. The question is where the real Naruto is"
"You sure are thinking-" Kakashi said "Wha—" Sasuke was caught off guard, Kakashi rushed at him. Sasuke was able to react in time and he dodged backwards, he sweat dropped. "You shouldn't you give your enemies an opening to attack" Kakashi noted. Sasuke had gotten pretty nervous "Can't let my guard down".
Sasuke rushed Kakashi with a flurry of attacks "His taijutsu is more advanced than Naruto" Kakashi thought as he grabbed one of Sasuke's punches. "Hmph" Sasuke went for a sweep kick, Kakashi jumped up. In a blur Sasuke was soon above Kakashi going for a kick. "What speed" Sakura said as she watched the raven fight.
"He's pretty fast" Kakashi thought as he actually had to use two hands to block the kick and catch himself from falling. Sasuke jumped back "Not half bad" Kakashi said as he went back to reading his book. "Hm, I'm just starting those bells are mine" Sasuke said as he began making hand signs. Snake - Ram - Monkey - Boar - Horse - Tiger
Flashback (Naruto and Sasuke)
"Aww man" Naruto said with his hands behind his head
"What's up?" Sasuke replied
"I just can't wait to be a ninja ya know"
"Yeah me too"
"I just wish I knew some jutsus"
"Jutsus?" Sasuke grinned
"Hey what are you smiling about?"
"Nothing"
"Let me guess you know a jutsu don't you?"
"Maybe" Sasuke continued grinning
"C'mon you gotta show me"
"Eh maybe"
"Aww c'mon Sasuke don't be like that" Naruto protested
"Fine if you can beat me in a race to the pier"
"Aw yeah I'll be winning this time believe it!"
The race began, the two were neck and neck but out of nowhere Naruto sped up and passed the raven.
"*Huff*I…did*Puff* it *Huff*Puff* believe it!"
The two friends soon caught their breath "Do it Sasuke"
"Fine will you leave me alone afterwards?"
"Yes just do it!"
"Alright, this is a jutsu my father taught me"
Snake - Ram - Monkey - Boar - Horse - Tiger "Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu" Sasuke cried as he shot a fireball at the lake.
After the fireball dissipated Sasuke was panting heavily "That used up a lot of my chakra".
"You're happy now?" Sasuke panted
"That was awesome, darn it I gotta learn a jutsu now. I won't let you outclass me"
"Heh good luck with that Naruto"
(Flashback Over)
"Hm? Genin can't use fire jutsus they use too much chakra" Kakashi said as he looked up from his book. "Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu" Sasuke cried as his sensei was engulfed in the hot flames. After the flames burned out Kakashi was nowhere to be seen "Damn it where did he go" Sasuke jumped through the forest. Sakura followed the path Sasuke took but to no avail could find him.
"Time for genjutsu" Kakashi thought as he was soon behind Sakura. "Hey Sakura" Kakashi whispered as she turned around and fell into the genjutsu.
Sakura woke up in what she thought was the training field and saw somebody running towards her. "Sasuke-kun?" she said as the raven towards her. "Sakura-chan are you okay" Sasuke questioned, Sakura looked in to his onyx eyes "Why wouldn't I be fine?" Sakura questioned. "Well this mission is pretty dangerous" Sasuke replied "Mission?" Sakura said as she noticed she was in the middle of a forest with many burning trees. "Where are w—" Sakura said when she saw what happened to the raven. "Sakura watch out" Sasuke said as he jumped in front of her taking several shuriken to the back. "Sasuke-kun!?" "Sorry Sakura-chan" Sasuke said as he fell backwards, dead. Sakura sreamed and the genjutsu ended.
"Maybe I went a bit too far" Kakashi said as he made hand signs. Sasuke rushed with a kunai but Kakshi soon fell into the ground. "Wha—" Sasuke gasped but he was grabbed into the ground. "Ah that takes care of another" Kakashi said to the trapped Sasuke "Aww man" Sasuke said as Kakashi jumped away.
"Hahaha this is so funny".
"Fantastic, I'm stuck here and Naruto might get the bells, great" Sasuke said sarcastically. Just then Sakura ran by "Sasuke-kun?" "Sakura-chan, uh can you help me out of here" Sakura almost fainted at the thought of a beheaded Sasuke. After a few attempts Sakura couldn't figure out a way to free Sasuke. "Sorry but I'm running out of ideas" "*sigh* It's okay you tried your best Sakura-chan"
"Hahaha" the blond ninja laughed as he jumped down from a tree. "Just my luck" Sasuke breathed "Naruto?" Sakura shocked
"Can't believe you got trapped" the blond grinned
"Yeah whatever, just get me outta here!" Sasuke demanded
"Okay, okay Wind Style: Great Breakthrough" Naruto cried.
Soon enough the ground around Sasuke widened as the wind shifted the dirt creating a mini crater, Sasuke shot up in the air.
"Whew! Finally out thanks guys"
Naruto was very pale and could barely stand after he freed Sasuke. "Are you okay Naruto?" the raven asked.
"Yeah just a little light-headed" Naruto said as he fell to the ground "You dobe you used up to much chakra" Sasuke scolded
"Hey I'll catch up to you guys, I just need to charge up"
"Hmph, well I'm going to get those bells" Sasuke said as he jumped into the forest "Wait up Sasuke-kun" Sakura said as she followed. The two jumped back to the main training field. "Hm I was wondering where you guys were, and just so you know there is 10 minutes left"
Sasuke turned to his shocked teammate and said "Sakura it's time for the plan". "Yeah right" the pink hair kunoichi climbed up a tree behind Sasuke. "Time for the last-ditch effort!"
"Hm? The same technique again huh?" Kakashi said
"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu" Sasuke cried but this time the flame didn't go straight ahead, instead it said as a flamethrower. Sakura shot a barrage of kunai and shurikens at Kakashi. "The shurikens and kunai are on fire, a good combo but the fire slows the kunai down.
"They are finally starting to see the lesson of this, but it's not good enough." Kakashi thought
"Damn it, if we had some wind jutsu" Sasuke thought as he kept up the jutsu. "Here I come" the blond said rushing out.
"Perfect timing rival" Sasuke thought
"I still got a few "breakthroughs" in me, Wind Style: Great Breakthrough" Naruto cried as Sakura shot a barrage of kunai and shurikens. The flames went berserk from the wind and Kakashi now had to dodge the speeding kunai/shurikens that were on fire.
Naruto took advantage of this distraction and summoned shadow clones who tackled Kakashi. The clone grabbed both bells and used great breakthrough to get them away from Kakashi.
Guys we're good Naruto yelled as Sakura and Sasuke stopped the attack. Sasuke and Naruto went running for the bell, the two tied they grabbed it at the same time. "Damn it a tie again?" Sasuke asked.
"Yep I think so" Naruto replied
Sasuke saw a sad Sakura jumping down the tree he knew what saddened her. "So there is only 2 bell so one gets sent back to the Academy. What is this feeling I have right now?"
Sasuke walked over to Sakura and shook the bell, it chimed which got Sakura's attention. "Sasuke-kun?"
"If anyone deserves to be ninjas out of the three of us, I would say you and Naruto should become ninja Sakura-chan" Sasuke said
"Damn me and my nobleness"
Sasuke smiled slightly "So here take it" as he pointed out the bell to her.
Sakura looked at Sasuke confused and she could have sworn she saw him twitch. "But Sasuke-kun what about you?"
"Don't worry about me just take it, I insist." Sasuke said as he put the bell into her hand. Sakura blushed because Sasuke's hand slightly touched her hand.
"T-t-thank you Sasuke-kun" as she bowed to show her thanks
"Time's up who's getting tied up?" Kakashi asked as the timer went off.
(Few Moments later)
Sasuke was tied up to the post, "Alright all of you didn't pass"
"What but me and Sakura got bells" Naruto yelled
"Second thought, you didn't fail or pass so you're being removed from the program"
"WHAT" the three genin yelled
"You don't even don't even know what it means to be shinobi! This exercise you genin showed favoritism which led to no major teamwork!"
In a flash Kakashi rushed Naruto and pinned him to the ground. He had a kunai pointed at him and in the other hand he had a kunai pointed at Sasuke
"Sakura, your choice who dies Naruto or Sasuke." Kakashi said with a stern voice.
Sakura's face went pale and she stared at her sensei nervously.
"As you can see missions are unpredictable, and shinobi do these missions knowing that they could be in danger. And this memorial stone holds the name of my closet friends."
"You're lucky I am going to give you guys one more chance, so eat up now." Kakashi explained
"And WHATEVER YOU DO don't give Sasuke any food, if you do you are all done is that clear?"
"Yeah" Naruto and Sakura replied
Sasuke had his head down to the point his hair partially covered his face. "Me deciding to be the nice guy, great. But even this setback won't stop me Itachi, I will—" Sasuke's thoughts were cut short as he saw his rival pointed the box lunch at him.
"Hm? What now dobe, you're trying to make fun of me?"
"C'mon just take my food." Naruto insisted
"If you do give me food you won't become a ninja"
"It doesn't matter to me just take it, either way, I could've sworn I heard a stomach roar" Naruto taunted
"Shut up usuratonkachi."
"Teme! I'm not the one tied up"
The two were ready to go full argument, but then Sakura broke it up.
"No I'll give up my food" Sakura said
The arguing Naruto and Sasuke looked shocked and confused at Sakura.
"S-s-Sakura" Naruto and Sasuke said in unison
"I need eat as much food as Naruto so, please take my food."
"YOU GAVE HIM FOOD!? I HOPE YOUR READY FOR THE PUNISHMENT" Kakashi said as he made hand signs.
Huge storm clouds covered the sky and the winds blew strongly. "Any any words?"
"FUCK" Naruto breathed
"This is not good" Sasuke thought
"But you said t-t-that there is t-t-three of us—" Naruto stuttered
"And we're all on this team together" Sasuke added
"Yeah that's why we gave him food, because the three of us are one." Sakura added
"Believe it!"
"The 3 of you are 1 huh, that's your excuse"
Kakashi eye smiled and said "Then you pass"
"What!?" The three questioned
"You're the first to pass, the others couldn't think for themselves. As a ninja you must see through deception, in the ninja world those who break the rules are scum. But those abandon their friends are worse than scum."
"The exercise is over and Team 7 will begin missions tomorrow!"
Sasuke grinned
"Yes!" Sakura yelled
"We did it!" Naruto yelled
"Let's head back" Kakashi said
Naruto and Sakura got up and followed Kakashi, and Sasuke untied himself.
Team 7 headed back to the Hidden Leaf Village.
Now officially as a team, Naruto, Sasuke, and Sakura can now take on missions. Their adventures as Team 7 are just beginning.
NEXT TIME ON "RIVALS TO END":
Naruto: Man these D-rank mission suck.
Sasuke: Yeah they do, but they have their own merit.
Naruto: Merit? Hey why are you grinning?
Sasuke: It's pretty funny watching you get mauled by a cat.
Naruto: TEME!
