Chapter 10

"Morning, Yugao-sensei." Naruto greeted followed by both Mei and Sakiko.

Yugao nodded and returned the greeting.

"Who is this Yugao-sensei?" Sakiko enquired.

"His name is Hatake Kakashi, he's a Jounin and will be the one conducting your evaluation." Yugao said.

"Why? You are our Sensei right?" Mei asked.

"I have my reasons and will tell them to you later." Yugao said, a bit of sadness creeping into her voice.

Naruto noticed this and kept it in mind, even though he didn't know her she was their assigned Sensei and Naruto just had a gut feeling that it was something important.

"Alright, Yugao had told me that you already know the value of teamwork and just wants me to evaluate you fighting skills." Kakashi said lazily.

He brought out a timer and handed it to Yugao.

Holding up three bells he said, "Now then, rules. You have three hours to take these bells from me. Whether you acquire it by yourself, or by working together. Anything goes. Begin."

Naruto, Mei and Sakiko immediately scattered and regrouped.

"We never planned for this. How do you think we should proceed?" Sakiko asked.

"Dun no, Kakashi is a much stronger Ninja, but not as strong as that pervert." Mei said.

Naruto remained silent. Jiraiya had told him a lot about Kakashi, and had expressed that after his Sensei's death he had changed. It was as if he had lost the motivation to better himself. Jiraiya told him that he blamed himself for his death. There was also the matter about his teammate, Uchiha Obito. He had died saving Kakashi, and had bequeathed his left eye to replace Kakashi's lost eye, that he had lost on the very same mission. After that, he had relied on Minato to help him get over it, but apparently his loss was something that he never recovered from.

Naruto knew how he felt, placing the blame on himself all this time; it was a wonder that he was able to function at all. He had tried to lessen his guilt by training Sasuke for the last year. Naruto didn't know how that turned out for him, but he planned to find out soon.

"Girls, I have a plan; it's risky but it needs to be done." Naruto told them, his voice low.

"What did you have in mind Naruto-kun?" Sakiko asked.

"Here's how we are going to do this . . ."

With Kakashi

Kakashi was standing in the same position as before, looking around, searching for the Genin. Yugao had retreated to a tree a safe distance away. He was surprised to find that he wasn't able to locate them easily. He knew that Naruto was excellent at stealth, but it appears that he had taught his team that same skill as well. Not thinking much about it, he kept on the lookout for any sign of an attack.

He jumped to the left as he heard a whistling sound cutting through the air. Dodging the thrown kunai, he was surprised to hear multiple sounds closing on his position. Taking out his kunai, he deflected all the Kunai thrown at him, looking in the direction where he had seen the Kunai coming from he thought he caught a glint of golden eyes in one of the trees. Shaking his head, he readied himself for their attack.

He heard a voice call out from somewhere to the left of him.

Doton: Ganchūrō no Jutsu (Earth Release: Stone Pillar Prison)

Kakashi stared wide eyed as stone pillars 25 feet in height rose up around him in a circle, trapping him effectively. He was shocked that a Genin was able to use Elemental Ninjutsu, a B-rank to boot. He didn't wait to see what they were going to do next and flashing through handsigns, slammed his hand to the earth and called out.

Raiton:Kaminari sāji (Lightning Release: Lightning Surge)

Lightning surged forth from Kakashi's hand and surrounded each of the pillars in a circle and lightning charged inside it. The pillars seemed to hold out for a while but then broke down into tiny pieces, rocks falling to the ground.

Kakashi was surprised at how much chakra he had to channel in order to overcome the technique. He realized that he would have to take this fight seriously, and retreated to the trees, hiding himself from plain view.

Mei was exhausted after using her technique; she had begun channelling more chakra in the technique to make it stronger and hold out a little longer against Kakashi's Jutsu. She had stopped when Naruto had placed his hand on her shoulder and said, "That should be enough Mei-chan, you performed wonderfully."

Mei leaned against the tree she was on, and recovered her Chakra from her ring. She had performed the first part of their plan and had some time before she had to do the next.

Meanwhile Naruto had gone over to Sakiko and nodded to her. She went towards the clearing that they were standing in earlier and pretended to be laying traps.

Kakashi saw her and wondered what she was up to. As far as he had observed, this team was way above the average team that passed from the academy, she shouldn't be leaving herself open like that. While distracted by his thoughts, Kakashi failed to notice a small puff of smoke from the tree behind him.

Naruto smiled as he received the memory from one of the clones that he had scattered throughout the training ground. He swiftly moved towards his position and making handsigns, whispered.

Fūton: Daitoppa (Wind Release: Great Breakthrough)

Kakashi inwardly swore as a sudden strong gust of wind blew from behind him, he was too late to perform the Kawamiri (Substitution), and braced himself for the impact. He flew through various small branches, which snapped against the pressure and eventually was slammed into the ground. Right in front of a grinning Sakiko.

'Oh shit . . . have to take this fight seriously, otherwise my reputation would plummet. Me being defeated by a Genin team . . . it would be years before I live that down.' Kakashi thought.

He righted himself quickly, wincing slightly by the fast movement straining his sore muscles. He saw Sakiko approaching him at a fast pace, and brought his hand up to his left eye and lifted up his headband to reveal his fully matured Sharingan.

Sakiko seemed to pause slightly before she took out 3 shuriken and threw them at him in an arc. Kakashi was slightly confused by her aim; he could see that they were not going to hit him. He saw their path and spotting the rope that was cut, instantly moved away from his position. There was a hail of Kunai buried in the ground; two of them were attached with Explosive notes. His eyed widened, as the resulting blast threw him off balance. Detecting Sakiko behind him, he quickly turned around and blocked her kick aimed at the side of his head. He staggered back slightly; surprised by the force she had behind her kick. Recovering, he caught her leg and tried throwing her away from him. Sakiko realized her predicament, and contorting her body, brought her other leg up, right under Kakashi's chin. Kakashi let go of her leg and leaned back slightly, avoiding her kick.

Sakiko back flipped launching a pair of Kunai at him, and landed on the ground, but immediately after that she jumped up high in the air and making handsigns called out.

Katon: Hōenka (Fire Release: Flame Flower)

A single large bullet of fire was expelled from her mouth and headed straight for Kakashi.

Kakashi dodged the Kunai and then watched as the large meteorite-like ball of flame was headed rapidly for his position. He knew that he could have dodged it, but his pride wouldn't allow him to do so. He had already been caught unawares by the Wind Jutsu, he would be damned if he couldn't counter this with his own Jutsu.

He flashed through handsigns and called out his Jutsu.

Suiton: Teppōdama (Water Release: Gunshot)

Three globules of water rose up from the nearby river, formed the shape of a sphere and launched itself at the approaching fireball. As soon as the first sphere came in contact with it, the fireball expanded rapidly and a torrent of flames spewed forth mid-air. These flames were extinguished by the rest of the spheres and a slight mist and droplets of water rained down on their position.

Kakashi was feeling slightly winded after using so much of his chakra, along with the Sharingan for such a long period of time. He had used up almost a fourth of his total reserves and could feel the slight drain of Chakra exhausting him. However, he hid this fact from his opponent well.

'Gotcha' Thought Naruto. Holding his hands in the Ram seal, he began channelling Chakra, using his Sharingan as the medium.

Kakashi felt a faint prickling in the back of his head, and turned to look around. What he saw shocked him to the very core. Four Jounins and judging by their headbands, belonging to Iwagakure were arrogantly approaching him. Two of them had a young woman and a boy slumped upon their shoulders, and when he spotted him looking at them, they grinned and dropped both of them on the ground. It was Yugao and Naruto, Yugao's body was littered with bruises and blood flowing freely from the stab wound in her stomach. Naruto was more or less in the same condition. One of the Jounins had Mei in his hold, a Kunai pressed threateningly against her throat.

"You bastards!" Sakiko yelled and blindly charged at them, eyes alight with blind fury.

"Sakiko wait!" Kakashi yelled, trying to stop her.

One of the Jounins made some handseals and shouted out.

Doton: Doryūsō (Earth Release: Rising Stone Spears)

Pointed spikes jutted out of the ground, heading straight for Sakiko. She was able to dodge a few but was impaled as she got closer to the Jounins. Kakashi watched frozen as Sakiko was lifted slightly from the ground, her body slumping bonelessly. Mei was sobbing hysterically, shaking her head violently from side to side, and refusing to see the sight before her.

The Jounins laughed at Kakashi's helplessness.

"Why are you here? Do you realize that this is enough grounds to start a war with Konoha?" Kakashi asked glaring at them.

"I don't fucking care! I'm here for revenge against Konoha and against you. Do you remember that day, when you killed my brother on that bridge? The same day that I had killed your teammate?" the Jounin standing in the middle snarled.

"I'm going to kill you. I'll kill you!" Kakashi shouted, rage bubbling within him. He charged them head on.

Fifteen minutes later, Kakashi was standing in the middle of what appeared to be a wasteland. There were scorch marks, upturned earth, unnatural rock formations and broken trees littered everywhere. Kakashi was standing in the middle, heaving huge gulps of air.

He soon slumped to the ground staring listlessly at the sky above him. His thoughts wandering to his past mistakes; mistakes, which had cost him dearly. He remembered Obito, Minato-sensei and Rin.

He saw as Obito appeared before him, urging him to get up. He was soon joined by Minato and Rin.

'You need to get up Kakashi; the Hokage needs to know about this.' Minato said.

'Quit lying around Kakashi, you did everything that you could to help.' Rin said.

'Have you learnt nothing Hatake?' Obito asked.

'It's all my fault. I never seem to be able to protect my comrades when it counts. I'm sorry Obito, Rin, Minato-sensei.'

'You know, I never liked your emo attitude.' Obito commented.

'You always told me that people who abandon a mission are trash, but those who abandon their comrades are worse than trash. I have always tried to follow that, but I just can't seem to be capable of doing it.'

'Our deaths were not your fault Kakashi. I chose to seal the Kyuubi into my son, I sacrificed my life willingly. Even if you were there I wouldn't have let you stop me.'

'But . . .'

'I chose to save your life Kakashi, it's my Ninja way' Obito said.

'You couldn't have helped me. I was all the way in Kiri, on my mission' Rin said.

'But I . . .'

'You said that you believed in what I said, but you have to realize that we are no longer your comrades. You have new comrades now, teach them your values, and look at it as a new start.' Obito said.

Kakashi stared at them, realizing all the wasted years that he had spent wallowing in self pity. he vowed that he wouldn't go back to his old habits, and would turn over a new leaf. Although he wouldn't give up his precious Icha Icha Books, old habits die hard and all . . . with that thought in mind a smile graced his lips and he slumped into unconsciousness.

With Yugao

When she had arrived at the training ground 11, she was a little nervous. When she had caught a glimpse of her team she couldn't help but feel proud of her team. They were dressed just like a competent Ninja. She had felt heat rise to her face when she saw Naruto come closer, he was definitely hot. She controlled her reaction however and let Kakashi tell them the rules. She couldn't have imagined, even in her wildest dreams, the events that followed.

Yugao had been watching the fight in slack Jawed amazement, her Genin were giving Kakashi a run for his money. She watched as they systematically wore down his defences, taking every opportunity to attack whenever he showed any openings. The thing that confused her however; was the fact that they were only fighting long range, using Ninjutsu to attack. In order to get the bells, they would need to get in close to him.

She had expected Sakiko to be the one to take the bells, as she was the one that had engaged him in Taijutsu. But she was proved wrong when she had launched her fireball at Kakashi. But sometime after that, Kakashi was just standing there motionlessly, while Sakiko got behind him and placed a Kunai against his back and signalled someone to come out. It was then, that Naruto and Mei came out and stood in front of Kakashi. Mei took the bells off him and waited.

With Naruto

Naruto exhaled a long breath as he saw Sakiko signal them to come out. The Genjutsu that he had used on Kakashi was hard on him as well, projecting the images that he had had been tough for him. Even imagining his girls in such a situation filled him with dread. He would need to talk to them later. After deactivating his Sharingan, he came in front of Kakashi, ended the Genjutsu and watched as Kakashi's previously unfocused eyes came into focus and he blinked owlishly, looking at him and then at the surroundings.

"Na . . . Naruto?" Kakashi stuttered.

"Hey there, Kakashi-sensei." Naruto said.

"What . . . happened?" Kakashi asked as he brought down his headband on his left eye.

"I trapped you in a Genjutsu. What you saw wasn't real." Naruto said

"That's impossible; my Sharingan would have been able to see through it . . ." said Kakashi disbelievingly.

"The Sharingan isn't infallible Kakashi-sensei; it would serve you well to remember that." Naruto said with a subtle tilt to his head.

Kakashi stared at Naruto for a long time before nodding slightly.

"Now then, as you have acquired the bells, you pass." Kakashi said smiling at the three of them.

Naruto, Mei and Sakiko pumped their fists into the air and exulted. Yugao felt a strong urge to join them, but controlled herself.

"Well, I think that I should be on my way. I still have to test my Genin team." Kakashi said with a grimace forming on his face as he mentioned his team.

"Naruto, Thank you . . . for everything." Kakashi said.

"Anytime." Naruto nodded.

After Kakashi left, team 11 sat down on the training ground. After answering some questions that Yugao had regarding their test, and the techniques that they used Naruto asked the question that he had been mulling over for some time.

"Yugao-sensei, why didn't you test us yourself?"

Yugao sighed, it couldn't be avoided for long and truthfully, she was tired of keeping quiet. She started her explanation, she told them that she was promoted to Jounin recently and was only a Tokubetsu Jounin, experience wise. She told them that she had told the Hokage her problem and this was the solution that he had suggested.

"But I don't understand why did the Hokage promote you if you were not ready to lead a team?" Mei asked.

Yugao shifted in her position uncomfortably. This was the part that she was nervous about telling them. She didn't know how they were going to react, and she wasn't sure what she would do, both as their Sensei and as a person if Naruto were to refuse acknowledging her as his fiancé, whether by arrangement or choice.

She steeled her resolve and began speaking.

"The reason the Hokage did this is . . . uh . . . well." Yugao started strong but began stumbling with her words.

"Um . . . my parents had agreed to an arranged marriage between me and Yondaime-sama's son. Barely a week ago had the Hokage informed me that the fiancé that I thought had died was you, Naruto-kun. Growing up, I never had any friends and I always wondered what my life would have been like if I had known about you earlier. That's the reason why Hokage-sama did it." Yugao said her head bowed down, looking intently at her feet.

There was silence in the clearing for a long time; no one spoke, each one lost in their own thoughts. Mei nudged Sakiko and when she saw that she had her attention, nodded at Yugao. Sakiko glanced at Yugao, noting her slightly shaking body and nodded at Mei after some time.

"Naruto-kun, why don't you catch up with Yugao-san? We'll head out home and tell everyone the news." Mei said with Sakiko nodding along.

"Naruto looked up at them, eyes seemingly asking many questions, seeking the answers. They both smiled at him and nodded once before leaving.

Naruto looked down at Yugao; it tore his heart to see someone in such a condition. Nobody deserved to be treated like this.

"Hey, Yugao-sensei?" Naruto asked.

"Wanna spar?" Naruto asked smiling widely.

A/N: Alright . . . had some free time so wrote this. But, this will be the last one for this month I promise.( I think so)
