Chunin Exam: Part 1
Naruko had her hands folded behind her head, singing a tune, eyes staring up at the sky, trying to ignore the presence of someone stalking her until finally, enough was enough. Lifting her foot in the air, she slammed right down on the fake rock that had been stalking her, yelling out, "Way too obvious!"
This attack, of course, caused the wannabe rock to groan from the pain that was inflicted upon him when in a puff of smoke there stood a little boy, who was now nursing the large bump on his head. "I expected nothing less from my awesome nee-chan!" he exclaimed, causing Naruko to cross her arms in front of her chest as she shook her head at him. She soon noticed he was not alone, seeing how there were two more kids with him.
Though, nothing could prepare her for their sudden and dramatic introduction, her facial expression blank. "...Konohamaru's G-Gang? ... Lame," Naruko couldn't help but utter in a deadpan voice when she suddenly noticed how they were all wearing goggles, goggles which looked like the ones she used to wear.
"Why are you all wearing goggles?" Naruko asked the trio.
"Cause we want to be just as awesome as nee-chan!" proudly declared Konohamaru. The blonde couldn't help but take in each of their proud and cheerful little faces. Feeling a sudden warmth enter her heart, Naruko produced a wide grin on her face.
"You're going to need more than goggles if you wish to be an awesome ninja like me. So today I will allow you to train with me!" declared Naruko, who in the first place was making her way to the training grounds. She was not going to let Sasuke get stronger than her, plus the guy was reckless. Without her around, who was going to save his sorry ass?
"Really?!" Naruko couldn't help but inwardly giggle at their awed little faces that were pointing up at her.
"Yep, but let me warn you, this training will be hard, so no slacking. No crying or whining either. You got that!?" Naruko sternly told the three, who immediately stood up straight and saluted her.
"Hai, nee-chan!" they shouted in unison. This was the scene that Sakura stumbled upon, walking up to Naruko to ask her what was going on.
"Oh, I promised them that I would allow them to train with me," Naruko answered the pinkette, who began taking in the trio of kids who she overheard address Naruko as 'nee-chan'. Just as Sakura was taking them in, so were they, as Konohamaru slid over to Naruko and whispered,
"Nee-chan, who is she? Is she one of your lackeys?" Konohamaru didn't know that Sakura overheard his question; a twitch appeared above her eyebrow.
"Hmm... Yep!"
"Naruko!" Sakura growled, stomping over and seizing Naruko by the collar of her jacket, glaring down at the frightened blonde.
"When the heck did I become your lackey?" Sakura's eyes at the moment were promising Naruko a world of pain if she didn't find some way to save herself. Now that Naruko thought about it, Sakura had been like this since yesterday when Sasuke-teme told the pinkette that she needed to train more. Of course, he didn't word it politely, crushing poor Sakura-chan's spirit, when he somewhat stated that she was the weakest one on the team. Ever since that day, Sakura had been in a depressing mood, very quick to anger.
"Maa... Maa... Sakura-chan, I was just joking!" Naruko held her hands up in surrender, only to have Konohamaru throw oil into the fire when he tried to stand up for her.
"You look weak! Nee-chan is definitely stronger than you! You should be proud to be her lackey!" shouted the young boy, glaring at Sakura, whose eyes were beginning to burn with a vengeance. Seeing this, Naruko couldn't help but wish Konohamaru a safe trip to the afterlife, because Sakura was about to kill him.
"What was that, you brat?" Sakura coldly asked, eyes pointed over at Konohamaru, releasing Naruko as she began to crack her knuckles. Seeing this, Konohamaru became frightened, yet still tried to stand his ground.
"Not only is Nee-chan stronger, but she's also a thousand times more pretty than you!" This statement only caused the fire to burn more fiercely. Seeing this, Naruko couldn't help but stare at her little brother figure with pity in her eyes.
'Konohamaru, I'll tell your family of your farewell.' Naruko couldn't help but think that Konohamaru was a deadman. Of course, as soon as Sakura got closer, Konohamaru took off running. Yet as he took a glimpse behind him, he screamed when he saw a she-devil with pink hair chasing after him.
"She-Devil! She-Devil! She-Devil!" cried Konohamaru, not paying attention to what was in front of him, slamming into a hard object that made him fall on his butt.
"What the heck..." Blinking his eyes, he saw a glaring blonde girl and a scary guy with paint on his face, glaring down at him. In a blink of an eye, the boy lifted up Konohamaru by his scarf. This caused Naruko to rush forward and yank Konohamaru away from the strange weirdo as she glared up at him.
"Don't do anything rash, Konohamaru. You'll get yelled at later," said the girl with four-spiky pigtails, not that Naruko was paying her any attention, too busy glaring at this strange weirdo, who mockingly looked down at her.
"It seems we got a blonde feisty pipsqueak," taunted Kankuro; this insult only made Naruko lash out.
"Who the hell are you calling a pipsqueak, you painted-face weirdo!?" angrily insulted Naruko, walking forward. Sakura tried to calm things down after noticing the two head-protectors.
"I just can't leave without giving them a lesson, especially the loud pipsqueak one. She's super annoying," muttered Kankuro.
"I'd like to see you try, asshole." Naruko seethingly glared at the boy in front of her. Just when it seemed like a fight was going to break out in the middle of the street, from out of nowhere flew a rock, which slapped Kankuro in the face. Looking to where the rock came from, he saw a boy with raven hair sitting in a tree. The boy glared at him before saying,
"Don't touch the idiot."
