We were back at the third training ground. This was the first time Kakashi and I had fought with ninjutsu. I clapped my hands together and...nothing again.
"Kakashi..." I stuttered. "I forgot...I can't do this without the moon." Kakashi looked at me and gave me his signature closed eyed smile.
"The moon is always there. Whether you see it depends on how you look," he said mysteriously. Suddenly he formed a seal near his mouth.
"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" He blew out a ball of fire. I countered with Raging Waves, but Kakashi's attacks were relentless. He could use all five chakra natures, and knew thousands of jutsus. He had me trapped when he made walls all around me and prepared to burn me to a crisp.
"Fire Style: Fi-"
"Moon Style: Slicing Moon Beams!" I yelled. In my moment of panic, I had felt the moon's energy all around me. I sent beams of moonlight streaking towards Kakashi. He leapt out of the way just in time. The moonbeams shot straight through a couple trees before getting lodged in a boulder.
"See? The moon is always there. You can call on its power anytime," Kakashi said.
"What if I hadn't called on its power?" I asked.
"I would've gotten you out of the way of the fireball. I cornered you right next to the river for a reason, you know."
"So...do you like it?"
"You're amazing, Sera-san. You're the first in your clan to be able to harness the moon's power to its fullest." I blushed.
"Thanks," I muttered. Kakashi looked like he was going to say something else, but didn't.
"I...I have a mission I need to go on," he said hastily. "See ya." He leapt away. I stared after him for a few minutes before I realized that I couldn't get back into the apartment.
"KAKASHI!" (Picture the angry sign: you know, the one with a square formed with curved lines)
~Page Break~
I trained until Kakashi came back for me. I honed my skill and perfected more Moon Style jutsu.
"Glad to see you're still here," I here Kakashi say behind me as the sun began to set.
"Thanks for leaving me all alone," I said sarcastically. "Really made my day."
"I figured you'd be less bored staying out here training than staying inside all day," Kakashi replied, shrugging. He had a point there.
"I'm starving."
"Let's go back, then."
A/N
Sorry for the short and basically meaningless chapter. What I forgot to say when I said sorry Kakashi is a little OOC is that it's hard to capture his character. I'm kind of getting writers block, so if the next few chapters aren't up to scratch, sorry in advance. Hope you all like it so far! :-)
