Challenge...

'One..two...three...' Naruto was doing one handed pushups waiting for Sakura and Sasuke to come get him. Today they were going to find out what Kakashi-sensei looked like. Yesterday after their mission Naruto had decided that Kakashi was deformed and they needed to find out how. But when the time came, they failed miserably...Ino, Shikamaru, and Chouji showed up and ruined everything. And on the way home everybody was walking down the street...'What where you three thinking! We had almost gotten to see what Kakashi-sensei looked like!!!' Naruto was furious. Sakura and Ino were not paying any attention to Naruto, they were busy hanging all over Sasuke. Sasuke was busy trying to keep the two of them off of him. The only two that were really listening were Shikamaru and Chouji. 'Why don't you just shut up idiot' Shikamaru retorted 'we didn't want to go, Ino forced us to...' Shikamaru looked up at the cloudless sky and sighed. Chouji was looking at the ground, Naruto could tell that Chouji was still hungry.

'What do you say?' Kakashi nodded at Asuma. 'I don't think so...' Asuma looked at his genins as they walked around with Kakashi's team. 'PPPPlllleaseee?' Kakashi looked at Asuma with his puppy dog eye 'It'll be fun, you'll see. 'Asuma looked at Kakashi with eyes of defeat...'alright you win, tomorrow then?' Kakashi smiled a huge grin under his mask and jumped away. 'What have I gotten these kids into...' Asuma sighed and jumped after Kakashi. Ino was clamped to Sasuke's front while Sakura was clenching onto his ankles. 'Get off of me, I can't move or see!' Sasuke yelled at the girls. Suddenly Ino's back hit something hard, 'did we walk into a wall or something?' Ino questioned. Everybody stopped while Ino turned around to see Kakashi standing right in their path. 'Hi everybody' Kakashi greeted with a hint of glee in his voice. Asuma landed behind Naruto, Shikamaru, and Chouji surprising them. 'What's the meaning of this?' Sasuke questioned as Ino and Sakura let go of him. 'We've got a training exercise for you all tomorrow' Kakashi was still smiling. 'BUT TOMORROW IS OUR DAY OFF!!' all of the genins yelled at once with horrified looks on their faces. 'I know, but we've decided you all need more training in teamwork' Kakashi lectured. 'And the best way to do that is to repeat an exercise we did before...with bells' Kakashi continued. Sakura, Naruto, and Sasuke's jaws fell to the ground. Shikamaru, Ino, and Chouji looked confused at Asuma.

'Asuma held up two bells, you have to get these bells from me' Asuma directed to Naruto's team.

'And vice versa' Kakashi said to Shikamaru's team. Both Jounins smiled a really big smile 'Tomorrow at 5 AM, meet here.' Kakashi explained the process to Shikamaru's team, they will try to capture Kakashi's bells in the village. While Naruto's team will try to capture Asuma's bells in the forest setting they took their first test in. 'Good-luck everybody' Kakashi and Asuma waved as they walked away.

Naruto spent the entire day practicing. 'I will not lose this time, this guy isn't nearly as strong as Kakashi-sensei, I will definitely beat him!' Naruto decided to try a new form of practice he would make three shadow clones of himself and have all of them attack him at once. Sasuke tried a different approach, he spent the entire time practicing his trap making. 'I will have to catch this man on traps, last time I almost got the bell from Kakashi sensei because of the trap I made. If I can make better traps this time I may get the bells and prove my strength. 'Sakura did not make as good a use of her free time, she spent the entire time worrying. 'What am I going to do, this guy is a jounin like Kakashi-sensei...' Sakura's day was wasted. Shikamaru was sleeping for the majority of the day, he didn't want to exert too much energy. 'I already know the layout of the village very well, I should be able to catch him with my Kageshibari No Jutsu (also called kagemane Ossan). 'When I catch him I'll just get the bell and end it quickly, no big deal.' Ino was following Sasuke around the woods watching him, wondering what would have happened if she had been on his team. 'Ino, I never realized how stupid sakura was until I met you...I love you!' she imagined Sasuke saying to her. She began to daydream so much that she lost sight of Sasuke 'Damn, don't worry my love I'll find you soon enough.' Chouji did what he always does, he ate! Tomorrow should be interesting...
