I set Naruko down on my bed and I looked around for an extra futon for me to sleep on. There was no way in hell that I was sleeping in the same bed as her, especially when she's drunk. Naruko began to talk in her sleep and moved around a lot. She tossed and turned with a concerned and nervous face. I pulled a chair from my table and sat there, watching her. I never knew people could be so restless when asleep. It was like she couldn't relax.

I stopped after a few minutes, realizing that this was pointless and stupid. Why would I need to watch her? If she fell off, she probably wouldn't even wake up.

After a 20 minutes of searching I finally found a futon. I set it on the floor and brushed my teeth and changed in the bathroom. I laid on the futon, unable to sleep. I was tired a minute ago, but as soon as I laid on the futon, I couldn't sleep. I sighed and listened to Naruko's breathing. It was steady and stopped for a moment every so often because she talked in her sleep. I still wondered how one could be so loud from tossing and turning and talking in their sleep. I turned over and was about to fall asleep.

"Sasuke…" Naruko said softly. My eyes opened slightly. I don't know why, but I wanted to know what she was dreaming about.

"SASUKE!" Naruko yelled, bolting straight up in cold sweat. I sat up and looked at her. She panted a bit and paused to wipe sweat off of her brow. She ran a hand through her hair and sighed as she caught her breath.

"What?" I asked, annoyed. She turned to me, surprised I was there. I frowned.

"You said my name. What for?" I asked.

"Ahaha…what are you talking about?" she said nervously.

"Spit it out, dobe. Or are you still drunk?" I smirked.

"The Chuunin Exams…I think. We were in this forest and there was this guy that killed a bunch of shinobi and then he came to you and he attacked you. You tried to fight but you ended up slowly bleeding to death. Hinata was already dead and then I got this strange and horrible feeling. It was like I was burning and my head felt so painful and then everything turned red. The next thing I knew I had stabbed you and the man bit my neck and it hurt so much. I woke up after that," she explained guiltily.

"Are you an idiot?" I asked angrily.

"Huh?" she looked at me with confusion, and soon, anger.

"You'd believe a stupid dream? Why the hell would the future Hokage believe a nightmare like that? If you really believe that that will happen, then train harder so you know that won't happen," I said, frowning.

"Future Hokage…wait. You just acknowledged that I'm going to be Hokage! HA! You never believed me! I thought the day would never come when the proud Uchiha Sasuke-kun would believe so-called dobe!" she laughed.

"Naruko…" I started, with a gleam in my eyes. She was pushed back against my pillows and was face-to-face with me as I towered over her body.

"Would you like to repeat that?" I whispered in her ear. She shivered and a blush highlighted her cheeks.

"S-sasuke," she whispered back.

"I'll take that as a no," I smirked and went back to my futon and went back to sleep. I heard her mumbling about what an idiot I was and teme-this and teme-that as I drifted off. Still, it worked. It being the fact I could now sleep now that she wasn't making a sound after she finished ranting.

I woke up and saw that Naruko was gone. I sighed and got dressed and brushed my teeth. I walked into the kitchen and saw her slurping a bowl of ramen. Next to her were three finished ones, stacked. I walked by the trash and saw all of my delicious tomatoes thrown out.

"Naruko! Why the hell did you throw out my tomatoes?!" I scowled.

"Huh? Those are edible? I thought you were growing some kind of mold or something," she said as she finished her fourth bowl.

"Why the hell would you think that?" I frowned. I looked at the clock and my eyes widened.

"Naruko. Training is in 10 minutes," I said as I searched the fridge for my extra stash of tomatoes. I smirked and I found them and ate them.

"Teme, I'm going to go back to my apartment to change," she said as she jumped out of the window. I sighed and ate a couple tomatoes and made my way to the Training Grounds after grabbing my kunai and shuriken holsters.

Kakashi-sensei said he'd be here at 8am…I don't know why I put my faith in him, I thought.

"Kakashi-sensei is so late! It's already 10am!" Naruko complained. Hinata nodded in agreement.

Suddenly, a flurry of leaves appeared in front of us. It turned out to be Kakashi with a fake guilty look. Naruko glared.

"You're late!" Naruko yelled.

"Sorry, but an old lady was carrying a lot of groceries and she needed help getting home…"

"Liar!" she fumed.

"Well, enough about me. I thought it was about time for you all to learn some jutsus," Kakashi said.

"Really?! What kind! Are they gonna be super awesome destructive ones?!" Naruko's eyes had sparkles in them and she smiled like there was no tomorrow.

"In order for me to teach you, I need to find out what kind of chakra nature you all have. My affinity is lightning," Kakashi said.

"What kind of lightning jutsus do you know?" Naruko asked.

"I have an original jutsu called the Chidori," Kakashi said. He proceed to demonstrate. After a few seconds, lightning encased his hand and it sounded like hundreds of birds were chirping.

"SOOOO COOOL!" Naruko said. Kakashi let his chakra fade back into his body and continued his lecture.

"I have some special paper. This paper, once you channel chakra into it, it will react. Depending on the reaction, it will tell you your chakra affinity," Kakashi demonstrated with one between his fingers. It wrinkled.

"There are five types of chakra affinities. There is fire, wind, earth, lightning, and water. Fire affinities will cause the paper to ignite and turn to ash, wind will slice the paper in two, earth will turn to dirt and crumble, lightning will wrinkle, and water will make the paper wet. Some Jōnin have two or three chakra affinities," Kakashi went on. "So, all you three have to do is to channel your chakra into the paper," he handed us each a sheet.

After a few minutes, we managed to get results.

Hinata's paper was wet. Naruko's was sliced and one half was ash in her hands. My paper was crinkled and half ash.

"Hinata, it's ok. I'm sure you can develop a special technique based off of your…uhm…clan taijutsu…" Naruko smiled at her. She must've seen the slight disappointment on Hinata's face from being the only one with just one affinity.

"Or, you'll get another affinity later on," Kakashi eye-smiled.

"Kakashi-sensei! Why do teme and I have two affinities?" Naruko asked.

"Dobe," I remarked.

"Maybe genes or something else," Kakashi said.

"Well, they don't call me the Copy-Cat ninja for nothing. I know justus from each element except for wind," Kakashi made a handsign and two more Kakashi's appeared.

"Hinata, come with me," one Kakashi said.

"H-hai," she followed him to another part of the Training Grounds.

"Naruko," another Kakashi gestured. She followed.

I was left with the original Kakashi.

"Well, Sasuke. You're in luck. You can learn my jutsu that I demonstrated earlier. Then you can make all kinds of deviations from that to make it your own," Kakashi said. With that, he began to teach me the Chidori.

Naruko POV

"I'm so awesome! I have two chakra affinities! But that teme has two as well…" I grumbled. Kakashi stopped after we walked out of sight of the others.

"Naruko," Kakashi started with a serious look.

"Huh?" I was slightly surprised at his change of mood.

"There is a jutsu only you can master and surpass the Yondaime Hokage," Kakashi said.

"Really!? I can surpass my dad?!" I yelled excitedly. Wait…I'm not supposed to tell anyone until I'm 16…

Kakashi's eye widened.

"Naruko, after I teach you the basics, we're going to have a little chat, okay?" Kakashi said.

"Oh, uhm, yeah! Just teach me already!" I changed the subject as quickly as I could and honestly, I was excited.

"His original techinique was the Rasengan. It is a sphere of concentrated chakra in a hand. Despite the fact you don't need hand signs or need a certain chakra affinity, it is a very difficult technique to master," Kakashi said.

"Cool! Show me!" I yelled. He sighed and demonstrated it.

"So, so, so how do you do it?" I asked.

"Well, a friend heard that I decided to teach you so he gave me a few pointers to try out with you," Kakashi said as he pulled out a scroll and unsealed water balloons.

"Huh? How're water balloons gonna help me?" I frowned.

"Practice channeling your chakra into the balloon and make the water spin so fast that it explodes," Kakashi said.

I kept working at it for three hours, but I still had no luck.

"Naruko. Stop for a minute," Kakashi ordered. I scowled but complied.

"You're rotating it wrong. For you, it's supposed to be the other way," Kakashi explained.
"Chakra…rotates? There's a right way and a wrong way?" I was totally confused.

"Well, everyone's chakra rotates left or right. Just rotate it the other way and you'll get it," Kakashi went back to his perverted book.

After 30 minutes, the balloon popped.

"Kakashi-sensei! LOOK!" I screamed.

"Here. Do 20 more and then you'll do another exercise," Kakashi threw a bag full of water balloons to me. I nerve popped out of my head but I kept going.

Hinata POV

I panted hard as I lay on my back. This water jutsu was only a C-Rank, but it wasn't as easy as Kakashi-sensei said it would be. It was Water Release: Gunshot.

"Hinata, don't push yourself," Kakashi said.

No! I need to push myself so I can be just as good as Naruko-san!

I nodded. I shakily stood and kept trying.

I made the handsigns and yelled, "Water Release: Gunshot!" Only a small amount of water came out of my mouth.

"Water Release: Gunshot!" I yelled once again. Still the same.

20th try

"Water Release…" I fell onto my knees and panted hard.

"Hinata, you need to work on expanding your chakra reserves. For now, take a break or you'll pass out from chakra exhaustion," Kakashi said, still reading his brightly colored book.

I took a half hour break. I stood up and tried again.

"Water Release: Gunshot!" I'm going to get this jutsu in three days, even if it kills me!

A/N Yeah yeah, I know. Late update. I'll try to update sooner. XD
