Chapter 3: Five Minutes
"You are suppose to keep an eye on them, especially Sasuke. People will start to panic, again, if you don't find him and the others very quickly." Five figures in the nearby trees of the bridge heard the Fifth Hokage say.
"Five minutes until package arrival." Sakura whispered. She was sitting on a branch with her back against the tree trunk. Her mind was occupied with going over today's events.
++Flashback++
Once Team 7 gathered Rock Lee, and all went to Naruto's apartment. Not surprisingly, the place was a little messy. Karasu was there with a bag.
"Hey." Karasu greeted.
"Oh...I've seen you around!" Lee said.
"I am sure everyone here has seen me around at one time or another. I do shop for food and other things." Karasu said.
"We are here." Sasuke said.
"Aye, I see that, Obvious-kun." Karasu tossed the bag to the genins. "Rule number when learning to work together, wear something similar to your teammates, yet, make it you. Here are some outfits I used to wear. Yes, Lee, you can join in on the fun."
++End Flashback++
Four minutes until package delivery, Sasuke said to himself in his head.
Sasuke had to admit wearing something different than his usual attire was fun and it seemed to bring a different side of himself out. Who knew pulling pranks were not only fun, but they help you improve your skills. Though he only expressed the idea of tye-dying the Yamanka girl's hair, it was Sakura who actually did it, with great glee. There was more than just clothes that Karasu-chan helped with them with.
++Flashback++
"Great choices in clothes. It might be fun to add make-up, but that be later. Rule number two, the best way to practice teamwork is cooking, cleaning, and evacuating places. Since the last one isn't a option at this moment, we'll start with cleaning Naruto's place. Start with couch. Two lift. One picks up the big trash. One vacuums." Karasu said sitting back at the table chair.
"How about Sasuke and Lee lift. Naruto you pick up all the trash. And I'll vacuum." Sakura said.
"Why you vacuum?" Naruto asked. "Why don't you pick up the trash?"
"It is your mess. We shouldn't have to clean up after you...you slob!"
"Take that back...big forehead!"
"I am not dealing with this." Sasuke said starting to leave.
Lee just stood there confused on what to do. Isn't this suppose to be a team effort? He said to himself. "Why can't we just work together?" He didn't realize he said that out loud.
"Because, if one says something that counteracts what another says, they just blow up. Not literary." Karasu said. "Thank you Naruto for helping me demonstrating that."
"Huh, sure." Naruto said, slightly confused.
"Sakura, everything under the couch, I placed there. Now, I am going to do this once. And only once. You must learn to overcome differences. And must learn to see the skills available. Sasuke, Naruto, you two hold up the couch. Lee, you pick up everything under the couch. Sakura, you vacuum."
++End Flashback++
Naruto held up three fingers to Karasu, to say three minutes until there package arrives. Today had to have been one of the best days of his life. Not only is he working better with his teammates and Lee, he learned something new about his self-proclaimed Guardian. Even though Karasu looked twelve or so, he knew that the guy was older than that. Way older.
++Flashback++
"Say, Karasu-chan, are you from Leaf?" Sakura asked as they afternoon snack.
"No. I traveled here many years ago." Karasu answered quietly.
"Where are you from?" Lee asked.
"Some where very far away and I am not going to tell. Any more questions?"
"Dislikes, likes, dreams, goals...the usual." Naruto said.
Karasu laughed. It was several minutes before he managed to calm himself down. "Gomen, gomen. You just reminded me of an old student of mine who said the very exact thing when I started to teach her. Pretty little thing with a obsession for blood."
"What happened to her?" Sakura asked.
"She ended up going crazy and cutting out her own heart. Her parents blamed me and moved away."
There was silence.
"Gomen."
"Don't apologize for something that didn't even happen in this village and you weren't even around for. Lets see...I dislike many people knowing about me and sleeping. I like flirting. And I used to have this dream that I would be clothes designer. My entire family was not happy with that so I worked my dream with making the very clothes you and I wear."
++End Flashback++
Any time know, three kids would be delivering the package. Lee sighed. He thought today was going to be boring with Gai, Tenten, and Neji helping Kakashi with a project. When team 7 had asked him to join them for their side of the project, he was thrilled. Not only was he not going to be bored, but got to spend time with...Sakura. Tomorrow would hopefully be as good as today.
++Flashback++
"Sakura...will you have lunch with me tomorrow?" Lee asked really fast. He had asked to talk with Sakura in the kitchen during their snack time. Silence. "Go..."
"I would love to." Sakura answered. There was a slight blush on her face.
"YEAH!" Lee yelled punching the air.
Out in the living room, the other boys were quietly finishing snack with smirks.
++End Flashback++
Bells rattling in a box were heard as three kids carried a box to the group on the bridge. Everyone on the bridge turned to their attention to the kids. It was Konohamaru and his gang. "Leader, said these were to go to Kakashi-sensei." The boy said.
"Thank you, Konohamaru-kun." Kakashi said taking the box. He opened it to reveal the bells and a note. "A note. 'Mission completed. Be on time, we won't wait. Team 7.'"
Bed now. Someone tell, Lee. Also, meet Naruto's place tomorrow after dark. Tell Lee that also.
TBC...
Sorry I haven't updated in a long time. I was getting behind in school and I can't do that if I except to graduate this year. Oh, hey, if you have any suggestions/ideas don't hesitate to tell me. I like ideas and if I use yours, I'll make everyone knows it. Later.
