Before Team Seven knew it another week had gone by on them, Kakashi had taught them a variety of new things, ranging from advancing their sensory skills to feel up to Jonin level shinobi, genjutsu, Sakura proving to have a higher aptitude for it than even Sasuke.
Different styles of taijutsu, fuinjutsu the pride of the Uzumaki clan and that was about it so far, one thing that remained steady though was Sakura constantly sending a message to her aunt back in leaf updating her on how they were all doing.
"Okay Kids, why don't you try suggesting something for once that you want to learn" Kakashi suggested, not that he was running out of idea's but he didn't want to dictate what was taught the entire time they were gone either.
Each of them looking a little ragged if he was being honest, considering they hadn't had a chance to have a shower in over two weeks besides taking a dip in a chilly slow moving stream "How about evasion" Sakura offered after thinking about it for a few minutes.
Immediately that idea was rejected "Not a chance Sakura-chan, I mean do you want him to throw weapons at you, that hurts you know" Naruto frowned sternly, suddenly not liking the look in his sensei's visible eye.
"Could be fruitful, knowing how to dodge is a necessary skill you know Naruto-san" Kimimaro took Sakura's side over the whole matter, plus he was sure Kakashi wouldn't seriously harm his students, plus they would finally get to practice their first-aide skills.
Naruto gulped as Kakashi armed himself with some shuriken "I suggest we start running now" Sasuke warned, ducking low as the projectile weapon came flying straight at him, poor Naruto he actually bit the dirt trying to avoid getting hit.
While Sakura simply spun gracefully out of the way, even Kimimaro was caught up in the volley of shuriken that was suddenly being thrown at them "Just had to ask for evasion training didn't you Sakura-chan" the blonde sulked when the training sessions had ended after forty-five minutes.
Sakura having proved to be quite flexible so she was without any cuts from the shuriken "Quit whining Naruto and hold still so I can put ointment on that" the rosette ordered simply, applying her newly acquired first-aide skills.
"Plus Kakashi wasn't really trying to hurt us anyway, normally weapons are thrown harder than that and we wouldn't get any forewarning so the whole evasion training wasn't bad itself" the raven of Team Seven commented.
Rubbing some smashed up herbs on his calf muscles after tending his cuts "Exactly and expect evasion training to last throughout the rest of our trip understand" the Copy Ninja informed, deciding that his genin would benefit from it.
Kimimaro chuckled at Naruto's horrified expression but he wouldn't dare complain especially around Sakura "Think about it, the next time the Chunin Exams do come around, you'll be able to participate and be more highly advanced than your former classmates" the Kaguya survivor pointed out.
Earning a grudging nod from the boy as they resumed their trek in a random direction after resting for a bit "By the way neither you or Sasuke told me what you want to learn Naruto-kun" Kakashi chimed in after a short period in which no one had spoken.
"You sure Kakashi-sensei, cause what I want to learn is that cool body flicker trick that all you Jonin like to use" Naruto frowned not entirely sure if his sensei was being truthful, but if Kakashi-sensei actually did teach him then there was more than just that, that he wanted to learn.
Kakashi shrugged "After lunch then" Sasuke inquired, inwardly thanking Naruto for suggesting that, because that was something he wanted to learn how to do as well, less than an hour later they stopped to make camp and have lunch.
Before gathering in front of Kakashi to learn the body flicker technique "Just remember guys it's not a space-time ninjutsu like the flying thunder god jutsu, it's a high speed technique that allows you to move at well high speeds for short distances" Sakura warned.
Already knowing the ins and outs of the technique even though she'd never been taught "Nicely said Sakura-san" Kimimaro clapped lightly, having been taught by Zabuza, his signature substance had been auburn colored leaves.
So seeing as he already knew he was made to help teach the genin until they were popping around in plumes of smoke, getting the technique down easily, though they were still going to practice any chance they got.
As for Sasuke, he suggested they all learn more about avoiding detection "Interesting, why because I already taught you this" the silver haired nin commented, eyeing the boy in confusion not understanding in the least.
Until he spoke "Well sure you already taught us Kakashi but that was just suppressing our chakra and scents, but there are many different methods to avoiding detection aren't there, that's what I want to learn so that we have more than one option to choose from" the Uchiha grumbled.
"Hey that's a great idea Sasuke, come on Kakashi-sensei I wanna learn to you know" the Uzumaki piped in, jumping aboard the bandwagon to learning other methods of avoiding detection so Kakashi had no choice but to relent.
In actuality not that he would let on, he was quite pleased they were so eager to learn more methods of defending themselves "Okay I think that's enough for the day for me at least" the rose haired Nara said near dinner time and completely exhausted.
Pale as a ghost, indicating that she'd been pushed to far that day so immediately Naruto and Sasuke settled down "Just like that huh" the ivory haired teen chuckled as Sasuke vanished to hunt for food, him hurrying after the boy.
Unfortunately all good things must come to an end sooner or later because the following day brought trouble in the form of two Kumogakure shinobi alongside their leader the Raikage and a group of irate low class ranking rogues.
"Fuck" Kakashi cursed so unlike himself as he grabbed all three of his students and body flickered them to safety, Kimimaro able to protect himself adequately enough that he was able to get away without suffering any injuries.
Then once the genin were safely away he jumped into the battle himself "Don't worry, your sensei isn't known for being Kakashi of the Sharingan eye for nothing" Kimimaro assured when he saw their matching worried expressions.
Sakura clenched her hands into fists "Be ready just in case, like Kakashi-sensei said we can't let down our guards, we must look at all the variables, not just one" Sakura exhaled, arming herself with her sword not having had a chance to ask for training with it yet.
"We understand Sakura" Sasuke grimaced, clutching a kunai tightly as they stood back to back, keeping an eye on their surroundings as a battle raged on less than fifteen feet away from them, thanks to this formation they were able to see what was happening.
And were able to avoid the stray jutsu that came their way until it seemed like the battle was coming to an end "Can we come out now Kakashi-sensei" Naruto inquired, eyeballing the foreign shinobi warily from where they were currently stood.
Seemingly all low class rogues taken down and tied up "Kakashi Hatake, what the hell is the Copy Ninja doing so far away from his village with little brats" the big bulky looking guy commented, looking like he was going to attack regardless of their sensei helping out in the fight.
"My students Raikage-sama and we're currently in the middle of a training trip" the silver haired nin explained carefully, gesturing for them to come stand at his side reluctantly, even though he wished Naruto had remained quiet.
They would have gone unnoticed that way but soon his students were stood next to him all of them rather subdued in the face of unknown shinobi "Students huh, I didn't think you were the type of man to want students" the Raikage scoffed.
Being purposefully disrespectful but the genin didn't so much as make a peep "Usually I wouldn't be but these three are special cases you could say" Kakashi said, hoping the kids kept their silence until the other man was gone.
Who narrowed his beady black eyes on them in the next moment "Special cases, they don't look that way to me cause all I see are scrawny, naive, mouthy little brats who know nothing of the world" Ay taunted.
Obviously trying to get a rise out of them "I hate to interrupt your conversation but we have a slight issue" the sole surviving Kaguya called, informing them all of the incoming chakra, apparently the rogues had backup laying in wait, wonderful.
And this time Kakashi couldn't get his students out of the way quick enough prompting them to scatter in different directions "Sasuke" the rosette called softly already flashing through hand signs as the enemy boxed them in somehow.
Immediately Sasuke understood because just as she finished the hand signs for the water wall jutsu he completed his own "Raiton: Lightning Stream Jutsu" the Uchiha sighed, enveloping them in a wall of water that shocked the hell of any idiot who tried to touch it.
Up next was him and Naruto as he nodded to the boy in question, speeding through the necessary hand signs for the great whirlwind jutsu that Naruto paired with "Futon: Multi-layered Jutsu" the Uzumaki yelled as he finished the hand signs.
Creating a gigantic whirlwind of fire that swept outwards taking out all in it's path before dying out after a couple of minutes "Doton: Bedrock Coffin" Kimimaro swept in, dragging the unsuspecting into the earth and burying them alive.
Ending the fight simultaneously at the same time and Kakashi couldn't help it, he just started laughing like a crazy maniac "You three…I don't think I've ever been prouder of anyone in my entire life than I am of you three" Kakashi laughed, ruffling their hair fondly.
Purposefully ignoring the Raikage for the moment who was wearing the most stunned expression which made the whole thing even funnier to him "Gah come on Kakashi-sensei we're not babies, we don't need head pats" Naruto whined.
His grin stretching ever wider in response "Dobe's right, we're not little children anymore Kakashi" Sasuke grunted, dodging his hand, already applying the evasion training they'd been undertaking the last couple days.
"More for me then" Sakura giggled, the only one to not have a problem getting her head patted like this, simply because it made her feel good on the inside knowing that her sensei was proud of them like he currently was.
Eventually Kakashi did stop to face the Raikage again "Special indeed, it seems I owe you brats one, otherwise that fight would have taken way longer than it just did, so what would you like to ask for" Ay rubbed his chin realizing there was more than met the eye with these genin.
So it was in his best interests to be friendly with them because if they were this powerful now, what would they be like when fully grown "Ask for, huh, what's he talking about" the blonde scratched his head in confusion.
And the girl sighed "Knucklehead, Raikage-sama is saying that he owes us for helping him just now and personally I wouldn't ask for anything myself" the rosette narrowed her eyes being smarter than the average person would be.
Because anything they asked for would later on down the road probably become a favor, basically a double edged blade that would get them into some big trouble "Hahaha smart little girly aren't you but in this case I won't be asking for any favor in return" the Raikage laughed.
"Then how about just a simple thank you" the raven haired preteen suggested, it being all they should really ask for to be honest, considering the Raikage was the one who'd brought trouble their way in the first place.
Fortunately Naruto and Sakura were in agreement so the Raikage nodded "Thank you then brats, Hatake" Ay relented and with that they went their separate ways to Kakashi's relief before turning his attention on the genin.
Who straightened before he was leading them away from the area not wanting to stick around for more rogues "At this point I think we should start heading back in the direction of Leaf" the Copy Ninja said.
Unwilling to risk further confrontations with the bloody freaking Raikage or any other shinobi that hated Leaf Shinobi to be honest "Good idea" the Kaguya survivor nodded as they turned back the way they'd come.
Was that the end of their troubles, oh no and it seemed things were only just getting started because less than two days later, after Sakura had asked for an extensive kenjutsu lesson, neither she or Kimimaro returned after leaving to find something to make for breakfast.
Kakashi's only forewarning that something was afoot being the loud scream that could only be from Sakura, then he was on his feet barking orders at the two boys to follow him, then he was running through the forest at high speeds.
Arriving on scene he found Sakura backed against a tree, squaring off against what had to be the largest black bear in existence, Kimimaro must have been taken off guard or something because he was currently unconscious a few feet away from them.
Though the situation wasn't as dire as he thought it was going to be, he still lent a helping hand and rescued his kunoichi "Okay there Sakura-chan" Kakashi asked, subtly looking her over for any injuries and finding none.
"Yeah I'm okay, Kimimaro-san's not though and sorry for screaming like that, the ruddy bear just startled us is all" Sakura admitted feeling stupid, she could have taken the thing down herself, instead she went and screamed like a scaredy-cat.
Even as she cut off a large chunk of meat to use for breakfast while Kakashi helped Kimimaro back up onto his feet "Basically what she said Kakashi-san, I didn't have time to use Shikotsumyaku before it took a swipe at me" Kimimaro grimaced.
"Don't feel to bad Sakura-chan, Kimimaro, I probably would have screamed myself" Naruto chimed in wanting to cheer the duo up who were most likely beating themselves up inwardly for such a rookie mistake.
A moment later they were back at camp "By the way do bears normally get that big or what cause that's just plain disturbing, knowing an animal could be five times larger than me" Sasuke shuddered not entirely unaffected himself.
Kakashi had no answer for him "Could have been an experiment or something Sasuke-kun, try not to think to much about it alright" the silver haired jonin said after a couple of minutes as Sakura made meat and lentil stew, having found wild lentil.
"Just so you know I'm going to be taking a bath tonight, I found a hotspring if you can believe it" the pinkette chattered suddenly, narrowing her eyes at Kakashi, the one most likely to object, but she was feeling utterly grimy and she wouldn't let him say no.
She wasn't the only one "I believe after all we've learned I think you could let us have this one thing Kakashi, you could consider it our reward or something" the Uchiha interjected, not wanting to pass on the chance to be actually clean for the first time since they'd left.
Taking a dip in streams just didn't cut it "Yeah cause I highly doubt you want us to walk back into the village looking like ragamuffins" the Uzumaki grinned, feeling somewhat mischievous in lieu of the news that there was a natural hotspring nearby.
"What's the harm, Sakura-san has her summons and the four of us could bathe together anyway Kakashi-san, preventing any trouble from happening" even the sole Kaguya survivor got in on it so he had no choice.
He held up his hand when the younger ones started bouncing around "If you can prove over the next couple of days that everything you've been taught has been successfully ingrained into your bodies and minds" Kakashi declared.
Giving them an ultimatum despite Sakura's glaring "B..But that means doing that mouth to mouth resuscitation thing again" Naruto whined suddenly in realization, if he had to sacrifice his mouth just for a bath it wasn't worth it.
Sakura's glare intensified "Regardless of that we're all in need of a bath Naruto so quit complaining or else" Sasuke hissed at the blonde not wanting to him to suffer a concussion courtesy of Sakura's fist.
Reluctantly Naruto shut up subdued in the face of his teammates, one who could be very wrathful if pissed off "Good grief" Kimimaro shook his head and then right after breakfast they were made to demonstrate the first thing they'd learned.
Easily done because they did it every morning, noon and night, followed by setting up traps to ensure their protection, each of them adding their own unique twist to impress upon their sensei that they really were learning what he was teaching them.
Next was basic first aide which was done before it was lunch time "Not bad kids, but after lunch you'll be showing me your evasion skills and this time I won't be going easy on you I want to really see you doing your best out there" the Copy Ninja informed.
"How can you say that, what if Sakura-chan has an asthma attack because you pushed her to hard or something" the blonde scowled not liking the sound of their next task or the tone Kakashi had taken with them.
Only to get whacked "Enemy ninja won't take it easy on you just because you have the potential to collapse Naruto, that was the point of all this training, if we can't dodge then that means we haven't really learned the art of evasion" the rosette scolded.
Seriously all she'd wanted was to take a nice, relaxing bath in a hotspring but no Kakashi just had to be a demon and tell them they had to show him they had learned everything he'd taught them so far, including the things they'd asked him to teach them.
But like a good genin she would do everything asked and more, including showing off her superior dodging skills, Naruto and Sasuke weren't as flexible as her after all, none of them aware that they were being watched, until the evasion training ended, Kakashi grudgingly praising them.
With that they were able to sit down and relax for a little bit until Kakashi got another wild hair up his ass "Tell me one thing you learned about the Uchiha Clan, Naruto, Sakura, Kimimaro" Kakashi inquiring.
Obviously wanting to see if the in-depth lectures had sunk in any "Their Dojutsu lets them copy movements and jutsu's if seen just the once and they remember it for all time" Sakura chimed in first, that being the thing that had stuck out the most to her.
"The Senju and Uchiha Clans we're once bitter enemies, that being said, they went on to build Konohagakure at some point as allies, which is why they were in charge of policing the streets, because of Tobirama Senju the Second Hokage" the ivory haired teen explained.
Having memorized every word of the lecture about the different clans he'd learned about "Uh Sasuke's Dad was the Head of the Clan who was called wicked eyed Fugaku" Naruto spluttered his way through but wasn't wrong.
Sasuke cringed at hearing his Father's name though "Nara Clan, Sasuke, Naruto, Kimimaro" the silver haired Jonin said next, planning on asking each of them that way he knew the lecture hadn't simply gone in one ear and out the other, for Naruto at least.
"Close ties with the Akimichi and Yamanaka clans because of their famed Ino-Shika-Cho trio" Sasuke sighed, glad that no one was commenting about his less than happy expression upon hearing people even his teammates speak about his massacred clan.
Naruto scowled at him "Their ability to manipulate shadows" the blonde shrugged, only remembering that much else, though if he really thought about it he could remember much more, but for now that would suffice hopefully.
Last was Kimimaro "They own a medicinal research lab in the mountains that has very little security so it gets raided a lot" the Kaguya survivor said, easily remembering, the next clan was the Uzumaki clan "Primarily ruled by a matriarch" he listed, going first this time.
"Known for their sealing jutsu which made them feared and ultimately led to their destruction" the rose haired Nara explained, feeling bad for Naruto a little bit, Sasuke, Kimimaro and her sensei as well because their clans were practically extinct while her clan was still thriving.
Her Uzumaki teammate mumbled something about the Uzumaki's being a clan full of redheads while Sasuke said this "Could wield something known as the chakra chains" the Uchiha grunted, getting tired of this already.
And finally things about the Hatake clan which were easy and Kakashi was satisfied, though now he would have to go about teaching his students about the other clans eventually but for now they'd sufficiently pleased him.
~Two Days Later~
Once they'd finished demonstrating everything, ranging from combining their chakra natures, executing the body flicker technique, using their sensory skills to hunt, animals were harder to sense after all, performing a couple of genjutsu, though Naruto had no skill for illusion jutsu's.
The different hand to hand combat styles he'd taught them, avoiding detection the multiple ways he'd showed them, drawing seals, and lastly the kenjutsu "Okay fine, tonight you can have a bath" Kakashi grumbled, pretending to be irritated.
Apparently he wasn't able to fool his students anymore as they simply rolled their eyes, even Kimimaro was in on it this time "About damn time Kakashi-sensei" Sakura stuck her tongue out, intent on being lazy for the rest of the day until it was time for her bath in the hotspring.
"Honestly where did you get that mouth of yours Sakura" Sasuke intoned incredulously, never having heard her cuss as much until they'd all become a team, then it was like she cussed every few sentences to his horror.
Sakura promptly dissolved into giggles that made it impossible for him to remain as straight faced as he usually was all the time case and point as the corner of his mouth quirked up into a partly amused smirk.
Kakashi taking his turn to roll his eyes "Probably from us, who knows what she could have picked up being classmates with you, me and Inuzuka, the three of us were probably the most foul-mouthed academy students in history" Naruto mused out loud.
Sakura's laughter reaching an all new high at that until she started wheezing then it wasn't as funny anymore "Okay there Sakura-san" Kimimaro rubbed the girl gently on the back as she got her unexpected attack under control.
Thankfully though it wasn't bad like the one she'd had back in Wave but she wasn't laughing like before, Sakura did nod though at his question, still not a one of them aware that they were being watched by a most unexpected person.
Then right after dinner Sakura popped up sporting a determined expression "I'm going first and none of you are allowed to complain about it" the pink haired Nara intoned edgily before stomping off, chakra un-suppressed.
Imagine her surprise when upon arriving at the hotspring she found it already occupied by two women "Don't be shy brat come join us" the busty blonde with almond colored irises beckoned gracefully.
But the girl was wary "We mean no harm really, we just want to talk to you a little is all" the ravenette with the clearly older woman assured, the both of them had been watching the group quite avidly the last few days after all.
"How come your hiding your chakra then and how did my sensei not sense you" the girl narrowed her vivid colored orbs, not realizing who she was currently speaking to, considering the woman wasn't mentioned much unless it had to do with her legendary skills.
At her question the older woman sighed "Because brat I didn't want to be bother, and your sensei probably couldn't sense me because I'm a lot stronger than him now get in or I'll drag you in clothes and all" the honey eyed woman snapped.
So against her better judgement Sakura disrobed and happily sunk into the heated water "Not to be rude or anything by why do you want to talk to me and not my sensei per-say" Sakura questioned after a couple of minutes in which she'd scrubbed her skin clean of dirt build-up.
"Ah well lets just say we saw your training session the other day, the one where your sensei had you dodge and we were more than impressed at your skill, are you a medic" the raven haired woman explained sheepishly before asking her question.
Sakura straightened at that "Hardly, if I were a medic I would have already figured out a way to get rid of my condition so that I can be healthy and not have to take medicine all the damn time" the fuscia haired Nara scoffed.
Both women across from her frowned "Condition, you look perfectly healthy to me" the ebony haired woman commented not seeing anything wrong with the girl in front of her, while her mentor gave her a much more thorough look.
Honey eyes widening "Tell me brat how long have you been suffering from it" the blonde woman asked, seeing what her attendant did not, which put a slight damper on her plans, but if she could get the girl to tell her what was wrong she might be able to heal her, maybe as long as it didn't involve blood.
"From the moment I was born, I have Churg-Strauss Syndrome, the rare variation of it called Vasculitis, it's been a right pain in the ass I tell you" Sakura scowled, making the blonde burst out laughing until she blushed furiously in realization.
Then a moment later the woman calmed "Okay brat here's the deal, I will attempt to heal you, get rid of the disease on a molecular level by burning it out of you with chakra, I won't promise the operation will be a success but I want to train you" the blonde announced.
Stunning her companion as much as it shocked Sakura "But Milady that would mean going back" the younger woman spluttered, only to get shot a look which silenced her because apparently the older of the two wasn't finished.
"I have no intention of remaining a permanent resident of Leaf, ever again, but I will go there, heal the brat and let her do the hard work to get back up to where she currently is, before taking her out of the village for a couple of years to train her" the blonde snorted.
Eyeing the brat who thankfully was keeping up with what she was saying "Tsunade-sama, that's who you are, I'm right aren't I" the pinkette said after a long drawn out silence, not sure what to think about the woman.
"Well done, yes I'm Tsunade, and this is my assistant Shizune, now enough of all this chit-chat and sitting around, hurry up and take your bath so we can get going back to Leaf" Tsunade snapped, impressed that she'd been figured out.
The girl seemed smarter than the average genin to her and she definitely didn't think she was imagining it "Now hold on a minute Milady what if her parents won't allow you to take her out of the village for training" Shizune frowned at her mentor.
But got no response while the rosette finished washing up, drying off in record time and redressing quickly afterwards, waiting patiently for them to do the same before starting back towards camp.
Kakashi shot into a standing position at the sight of them "Lady Tsunade, Shizune, what are you doing in these parts" the Copy Ninja questioned, eyeing his kunoichi who looked contemplative, she was also eerily silent to his consternation.
"Just around Hatake, around long enough to notice you training these brats, that one in particular having high dodging skills, which I'm taking an interest in" the Legendary Medical Ninja pointed at Sakura to his horror.
He didn't like how she said that in the least "Sakura is my student, so of course and by the time I'm through they all be superior at dodging to their former classmates and fellow genin" Kakashi informed bluntly.
Protective over his students especially the lone girl "Did you know about her condition" Shizune chimed in, still unable to really see any difference, the girl or rather Sakura as they'd just learned looked perfectly fine to her.
"Of course, we all do, but Sakura-chan does her best the make the most of her situation" the silver haired nin nodded, not happy because he could see where this conversation was going and how it would end as well.
Sakura pressed her lips together keeping quiet for now because she was still undecided on what to do about the woman's offer "Cool it Hatake, I'm not going to get into an argument with you, I'm just stating my interest that's all" Tsunade snapped.
A little surprised at how defensive the man was over the brat "Kakashi we're going to take a bath without you if you don't hurry up" Sasuke grumbled suddenly, glad when the suffocating chakra coming from the man dissipated some before vanishing altogether.
"Yeah and we're going to take as long as we want" Naruto sniggered, deciding now was the perfect time to execute the prank he'd promised to get Sasuke with back at the start of their trip, he probably didn't even remember which was even better.
Kakashi sighed but hurried after the two boys "Excuse me if you will Sakura-san, I'll try to make sure they don't drive Kakashi-san insane" Kimimaro bowed his head at the girl before taking off after the others to have a bath.
Tsunade narrowed almond colored irises "It's not standard to have four genin under the command of a Jonin" the ebony haired woman frowned, not understanding what was going on anymore in the least.
"Kimimaro-san is not a genin, in fact he's not a shinobi of Leaf at all, yet, this is his trial period, the main reason that Kakashi-sensei didn't tell us about was to see if he would try to run and he hasn't so he'll most likely become a shinobi once we get back" Sakura explained.
Having long since figured out the true meaning of their training trip outside the village "Really brat, so if he didn't tell you, how would you know" the busty blonde raised a pale brow, somewhat amused but not completely.
Earning a small shrug "Cause Kimimaro-san asked on the first day and Kakashi-sensei tilted his head at him subtly, I caught the action and went from there" the rose haired Nara admitted, stoking the fire absentmindedly.
Lost in thought until an unmanly scream echoed from the direction of the hotspring "DOOOOOBBEEE I'M GONNA KILL YOU" the Uchiha on her team shouted at the top of his lungs in the next moment.
Right when Naruto burst into camp, in his arms were Sasuke's clothes "Help me hide the evidence Sakura-chan" the Uzumaki demanded thrusting the articles of clothing at her before taking off running back into the forest, chakra completely suppressed.
Next to return was Kakashi who was shaking his head "You know I think I'm just going to check myself into a mental hospital, because I have to be mad to take you three on as my students" the Copy Ninja groaned.
Fifteen minutes later Kimimaro appeared dragging the two younger boys with him looking quite exasperated "Deal with them" the Kaguya survivor shoved them at their teammate, one of them practically naked, Sasuke would be if not for the small cloth that was tied around his waist.
"Why am I always having to do this….ugh fine, Naruto be a little more tactful next time, if your going to play a prank make sure the one getting pranked doesn't immediately find out and Sasuke, don't lose your temper every single time Naruto does something idiotic" Sakura scolded.
Throwing his clothes at him "Because he does it just to get a rise out of you, you know that, also another thing, running around in the forest without supervision was reckless what would you have done if something had happened, now go get dressed and think about your actions you two" the pinkette finished.
Sasuke trudging off to dress while Naruto plopped down and when Sasuke came back he joined them on the ground, completely cowed by Sakura like Naruto currently was "Alright you brats go to bed" Kakashi ordered.
Prompting them all to lay down and go to sleep like good little genin "Seems like the girl there keeps them on a short leash, I would have thought the boy there would be all pro-revenge on his brother and is that who I think" the honey eyed blonde snorted.
Eyeing the kids who were snoring softly now, except for Kimimaro "Lady Tsunade I can't tell you why Sasuke's not like that and yes he's the one but as for Sakura-chan, she's about the only one who can truly reign them in when their being like that" the silver haired Jonin sighed.
Being purposefully vague, Kimimaro inwardly lamenting at the fact that he'd probably never find out why Naruto was like he was, so decided to just lay down and go to sleep as well, closer to Sakura than usual.
