Sparring Session by Lupine Horror
"DICK MOVE, NARUTO!" The blonde's team mate yelled up at him, shading her eyes from the bright sunlight.
She couldn't quite tell because of the distance involved, but she could swear he gave her a cheeky wave before recommencing his unfair onslaught.
A hail of lightning arrows struck all over the clearing.
It was clear that he'd been practicing the technique, as there were more arrows than she remembered there being in their last free-for-all team spar a month previously, and all of the arrows, she would swear, were even moving faster than last time, and leaving larger craters when they exploded against the earth.
Her other team mate scowled across at her.
"I say that we ban Naruto's 'hail of arrows' next spar." He suggested.
The two of them glanced hopefully towards their sensei, who was also dodging the torrent of arrows, though with much more ease than either of them were.
"Ninja." He shrugged.
"If he finds a tactic that works, it's up to us to exploit its weaknesses and help him improve, just like he does with us."
"But this isn't fair!" She scowled petulantly and stomped her foot, twitching as she was tagged a half dozen times by lightning arrows.
"How the hell are we supposed to reach him all the way up there!"
"Work on the range of your jutsu?" Their sensei suggested, not having much of an idea about how to knock Naruto out of the sky himself.
Ninja tended to fight at close to mid-range after all.
Naruto was a long range specialist that, with his Hirenkyaku technique, could stand on the air a few hundred meters up and simply bombard them with long range techniques, his specialty.
"Force javelin incoming!" The male student yelled, diving for cover as an almost invisible lance of pure force hit the ground, throwing up dirt and blinding them air in a fog of dirt.
As the rain of lightning arrows came again, the genin growled to herself.
When Naruto got down here, she was going to pummel him under the ground!
