Don't kill me. Please.
Hi there!"Flashback.
"Really?" = Person talking about flashback.
"yes, Really!" = People in flashback talking.
"BooYaa!" People talking at the same time out of flashback.
Kagome lifted her head to try to catch the scents of the ninja that put the Genjutsu over them. But whatever that snake guy did to her, it was affecting her badly; she was dizzy, her senses were dulling, and she was way more exhausted than she should be. Kagome was so out of it she didn't hear Naruto whisper "I have a plan." Naruto had to tap her shoulder and repeat it to her.
Kagome nodded when Naruto finished telling her his plan... Twice. She was stopped by Sasuke when she went to hide.
"Why are you so pale?" Of course Sasuke wouldn't just ask, 'are you okay'. Kagome tried to throw him off my quietly laughing. "I'm fine. What makes you ask?" What Kagome didn't expect was for Sasuke to suddenly start glaring at her. "You're pale, you're sweating and Naruto had to repeat what he had said to you when he shouldn't have; you seem to have better hearing than some of us."
Kagome laughed nervously. Damn him for being so observant. "Fine, you want the truth?" Sasuke nodded. "Here's the truth; I'm dead tired, I'm pissed, and I want to hit something. Okay." Sasuke was a bit surprised at Kagome's stern voice, but didn't show it. He nodded, unknowingly accepting her half lie. Kagome almost sighed in relief as she continued to find a place to hide.
She jumped up in a tree, after a while of walking, and went into the hole that was easily seen from below. Kagome inhaled deeply before concentrating on putting a Genjutsu over the hole in the tree. She let out her breath in a huff when she was able to put up the Genjutsu and immediately ripped off the choker around her neck. She almost gasped when she felt her youkai rush through her again; her red fox ears appeared on her head, her tail lightly swung back and forth on the ground, her claws slightly reflected the moon light, her fangs pushed against her bottom lips, and her eyes turned red.
She smiled, her fangs showing, when she decided she'd go and hunt for something more to eat, even if she was in a Genjutsu. She jumped down to the grassy field below her, while shifting into her fox form. Four paws hit the ground when Kagome landed. She smirked, as much as she could as a fox, when she spotted a rabbit a few feet away from her. "Time for dinner." Is what Kagome thought before sneaking up behind the rabbit, and lunging at it.
The white rabbit let out a squeal as its pure white fur was colored crimson. She said a quick prayer to the Kami's so it's soul could rest before digging in. A few hours later Kagome could be found laying under a bush licking her paws clean of blood. She jumped when she heard the clash of metal against metal. Kagome turned around to see Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura and herself fighting three ninjas. She narrowed her eyes, trying to see the symbol on he Haitai-ate on the three ninjas.
Kagome gave up on finding out what village they were from, and opted for shifting into her human form. She stopped when she reached into her pocket for her choker. 'No. I can't keep wearing this if it makes me weak. I'll just put a Genjutsu on myself, a very strong Genjutsu.' Kagome did a few quick hand signs and she was back to her human self.
She peeked over the bush to see the clones of Team seven still fight the very real ninjas. Her purple eyes reflected her clone team and the enemy ninjas fighting. It was almost dawn, she couldn't let it continue like this; they wouldn't have time to get to the Tower. Kagome inhaled deeply, her muscles tensed in her legs as she readied to attack. 'Like preying on small animals, I must be silent and fast.' Were her thoughts as she sprang from her hiding spot to land on one of the ninjas. Her youkai spiked at the excitement of fighting, but she cringed when a horrible pain throbbed in her neck.
The ninja underneath her took that moment to send a punch to her eye, she was able to dodge it by doing a back flip off him.. Kagome grunted when she slid to a stop on her feet, she released a growl after gaining balance. She glared at the ninja, the rain ninja, before disappearing and then appearing behind him. She took a millisecond to take a look around. 'This one is a clone except... for that one hiding in the bushes.' She pulled out her daggers and sliced the clone apart. "Hello, rain ninjas. My name's Kagome Tenshi... Let's dance."
Kagome smiled when all three rain ninjas were tied to a tree. To her, they looked like humans dressed as ragdolls. They were beaten up pretty badly, which added to the ragdoll look, while Kagome was unharmed. Team seven 'poof'ed out of existence, then the real Team seven came out from hiding. "Hey guys. Wha-" Kagome was cut off when Naruto glomped her. "Kagome!" She pushed the bright blonde haired boy off her, before nodding 'Hi' to Sakura and Sasuke.
Sakura smiled, she wasn't sure what to think of Kagome, but she knew that she, Sakura Haruno, was starting to look up to Kagome as a big sister, protector and possible a Sensei. Sasuke smirked, Kagome Tenshi was a strong female, dependent, smart, fast, skillful, and thankfully not a fan-girl, he didn't mind too much having her as a teammate.
Team seven looked curiously at the scrolls. Kagome silently hummed in amusement, Naruto started dumbly at the scroll, Sakura mumbled 'A man, a person?', and Sasuke's eyes widened in realization. Smoke started coming up from a lump that had appeared suddenly on the scroll. "This is... a summoning jutsu." Kagome nodded her head, and sat on the ground Indian style to watch the scene unfold.
"Naruto! Sakura! Let go of the scrolls!" Sakura and Naruto listened to Sasuke and threw the scrolls out in front of them. Smoke poured out of the scrolls and Kagome caught the odor of... Iruka. Sasuke's, Naruto's and Sakura's shoulders tensed, thinking it was an enemy. When the smoke clear away, Team seven's, except Kagome's, eyes widened. "Hey." Iruka started. "Long time no see, huh?" Iruka smile, and closed his eyes. Kagome smiled gleefully. "Iruka?" Sakura asked. "Looks like you've gone through a lot in this test." Iruka said, opening his eyes to look at Team seven. The fact that Kagome's clothes were almost completely clean and that she didn't have a scratch on her didn't escape Iruka.
"Hey." Naruto started, and he rethought his words when he noticed Kagome glaring at him. "Why did you appear with the summoning?" Iruka took his time to answer. "In the second exam, we chunin are supposed to welcome the test takers back." Kagome stood up from sitting on the floor. "And, well, I was just lucky enough to be the messenger to you guys." Iruka walked off the summoning scrolls and towards Team seve.
"A messenger?" Sakura asked, unsure about what Iruka was implying. Iruka pulled out a cloock from his pocket. "Oh, look here. You have ten minutes to spare..." Kagome raised an eyebrow. 'Ten minutes? Well, I guess it's better than what it might've been if I left the rain ninjas continue to fight Naruto and his clones of Team seven.'
"And now.." Iruka continued. "Congratulations, you've passed the second exam. Kagome sensed surprise from her team. She smiled and slug her arms around the three of them. "We did it guys, we made it!" Iruka smiled. "I'd like to treat you to some Ramen at Ichiraku's, but..." Iruka was cut off by Naruto glomping him. Kagome shook her head. 'Naruto and his Ramen...'
Kagome's P.O.V
"Hey, Naruto! Let me finish!" Iruka said, trying to calm the blonde down. Naruto let go of Iruka to do a small happy dance and repeatedly saying 'Ramen!' I walked over to Naruto and smacked him over his head. "Owie. Kagome." Naruto drew my name out, letting me know I had hit a bit too hard. 'Oops.' I turned my head to look over my shoulder when Sakura let out a sigh and slumped to her knees. I let a small smile grace my lips. 'You can relaxe now Sakura, we made it.' Sasuke was next to relaxe. He sat down and grumbled about Naruto being energenic, 'cause he was now singing again about Ramen.
I looked over at Naruto as he jumped up into the air and yelled 'Yeah!' and Sakura scolded him telling him to 'Shut up'.
"Geez, you're still restless like before." Iruka sweatdropped. Sasuke 'hn'ed before saying "I see." Kagome raised an eyebrow at him, Sakura 'huh'ed. "If we looked at the scrolls before passing the exam... Iruka-sensei, what were you planning to do?" Kagome nodded her head in understanding. Naruto and Sakura turned to look at Iruka. "Sasuke, you're as sharp as ever." Iruka said, bending down to pick up the scrolls. "As you have guessed, this exam test you mission completion ability." Iruka held the scroll up, and I quickly memorized the writing on it. "So if you break the rules, and open a scroll..." Iruka paused. "Open a scroll?" Naruto mummbled. My interest piqued when Iruka smirked. 'I wonder what he's remembering.' I quickly did a few hand signsd in my mind. 'Memory Watcher Jutsu.' It was a Jutsu I spent much time on making.
Iruka's memory start
Two leaf ninjas looked at each other before looking back down at the scrolls. "We were ordered to knock out the examinees untill the Second Exam ended." The two leaf ninja scream after opening the scrolls. A few seconds later they were laying on the ground knocked out.
Iruka's memory end
I ended my Jutsu when I heard my team gasp, except Sasuke, his eyes widened. Sasuke and me looked over at Naruto and Sakura. "Aren't you glad you didn't open the scrolls?" Naruto and Sakura stiffened. Naruto suddenly come up to me and bowed low at the waist. "Kagome! Thank You!" I patted his head in a 'there, there' sign. Sakura rubbed her head and I could almost hear her inner self say 'That was freaking close!'.
Sakura suddenly looked up at Iruka. "Oh yeah, sensei." Iruka looked down at her. "What does the text on the wall mean?" I look at it curiously. Sakura continued. "It seems to be broken, and we can't understand it at all." My tail twitched in agreement. Naruto bent down to say something to Sakura but I quickly grabbed his collar and shoved him down on his ass, and gave him a heated glare that meant "Stay put."
"That's my other mission." Iruka answer Sakura. "I have to explain to you what this means." Team seven nodded, meaning he could continue. Iruka looked at it then told us to read it. "This is the principal that the Hokage-sama wrote that you should keep in mind as chunin." I tilted my head to the side, almost looking like a curious puppy dog.
Kagome's P.O.V end
Kagome kept thinking about what she Iruka had told them, even standing infront of the Hokage and other chunin and higher level ninja with a group of leaf ninja, sand ninja, ect.
Flashback
"The 'Heaven' in this text points to the head of a person. And earth points to the body. If you do not have Heaven, Gain knowledge and be ready. That means, such as, if Naruto'sweak point is his brain..." Naruto yelled out 'Hey' and there were a few snickers from Sakura, a smirk from Sasuke and a Kagome trying not to laugh. But Iruka continued like he wasn't interrupted. "He should study and prepare for his missions." Naruto mummbled 'That's none of your business' and Sakura started letting giggles escape passed her lips.
Iruka then looked at Sakura. "And if you do not have Earth, run through the woods and seek strength. For example, if Sakura's weakness lies in strength, she should train herself everyday." Sakura looked up at Iruka wide-eyed, shocked. "That's what it means. And if you have both Heaven and Earth, then any dangerous mission will become safe... It can even becomeeasy."
End flashback
Kagome was pulled out of her thoughts when the Hokage started speaking. "First off, congratulations on passing the Second Exam." Kagome looked around. '21 people were able to pass. Well, including me there are 22 people.' She smiled, proud of her team. Kagome's ear twitched when Choji's stomach grumbled and he said he was hungry. A smirked appeared when Shikamaru said how troublesome it was about how many people there were. Kagome scrunched up her nose when she smell arrousal come from Ino. 'Eww, she probably spotted Sasuke. Her eyes held a mischievous glint in them when she had an idea.
"Sasuke," She whispered to him, and she waited for him to look over at her. "Play along." And with that, she slug her arm around his shoulders. He smirked, getting the idea, and put his arm around her shoulders too. Kagome giggled, sensing Ino's anger. "Ready to fight Sasuke?" He looked into her purple eyes and nodded. Kagome could tell there was nothing in hell that could stop him from getting the title 'Chunin'.
'This... Is gonna be fun.' Kagome thought with a big smirk.
