Kitty

Pass or Fail: Survival Test


Waiting in the room a bored Kitty starts drawing a little cartoon strip of Naruto and Sakura bickering and Sasuke just sitting there looking bored.

She smiles at her accomplished work. The picture shows Naruto putting a chalk brush at the top of the door ready to chalk-ify the next person to come through the door.

Naruto was getting a little impatient he really wanted to start on missions so he does a prank like the one drawn in Kitty's picture (she drew that when he was doing it she's not a physic).

He's an elite ninja he isn't going to fall for that

Sasuke thought… well think again because…(Poof) a man appears at the door with a chalk brush on his head and chalk dust everywhere around him.

Is this guy for real? Sasuke thought to himself.

Sakura gasped but her inner voice expressed it a little different: YA! GO NARUTO! BULL'S EYE!

Naruto laughs his head off, Kitty smiles at the whole scene creating another picture of it.


OUTSIDE

Well now they're outside, Kakashi (the sensei) is sitting in front of the 4 students.

Kitty sitting down leaning against a pillar sketching book on lap drawing of the unfinished scene, Sasuke is sitting nearby, Sakura sitting near him and Naruto sitting below Sakura. (By the way their sitting on stairs)

Kakashi looks at the 'ninjas' he has to work with making a quick assumption of each.

Sasuke seems to be a good ninja but got that I'm too good for you vibe around him.

Naruto seems like he can handle himself but he has too much confidence.

Sakura well her marks are average… but that look on her face is not from an average ninja… she's obsessed with Sasuke…

Kitty… now this girl has nothing as if she doesn't feel anything like ice…or fire. (OR BOTH: D)

Kakashi tests out his assumptions on his 'students'. "Alright today we will begin with an introductory… you guys will say your name and then a little something about you like, your likes, dislikes, dreams and hobbies."

Kakashi looks at his students and gets dumbfounded looks… "Do you get it?" Kakashi asked. He gets a slow nod as if they were unsure, "You don't do you?" Sakura nodded slowly but Naruto just blurted out, "Couldn't you show us an example?"

Kakashi nodded and slowly and carefully chose his words, "My name is Kakashi Hatake. My likes and dislikes are...I don't feel like telling you. My dreams for the future...never really thought about that. As for my hobbies...I have lots of hobbies, now Sakura your turn."

Sakura looked at him stupefied… Well that was pointless… All we learned was his name! Sakura finally registered what he said and said, "OH! Uh… my name is Sakura…" She soon starts giggling, "I like giggle… I dream about giggle… My hobbies are giggle" (BTW the whole time she's looking at Sasuke.)

Kakashi looked at her as if she were an alien and thought. Great… I'm working with a giddy school girl in love… "What do you dislike?" (Kakashi)

That's easy! "NARUTO!" (Sakura)

Kitty all the while was smiling and drawing her little picture amusing herself.

"Naruto's turn." (Kakashi)

"Believe it! I'm Naruto Uzumaki. I like instant ramen in a cup, and I really like the ramen Iruka-sensei got me at the Ichiraki Noodle Shop. But I hate the three minutes you have to wait after you pour the water in the ramen cup. My hobby is eating different kinds of ramen and comparing them. And my future dream is to be the greatest hokage! Then the whole village will stop disrespecting me and start treating me like I'm somebody--- somebody important!" (Naruto said happily)

"Compared to the others you're a little weird… Sasuke your turn." (Kakashi)

"My name is Sasuke Uchiha. I hate a lot of things, and I don't particularly like anything. What I have is not a dream, because I will make it a reality. I'm going to restore my clan, and destroy a certain…someone." (Sasuke)

I hope it's not me… (Naruto)

Kakashi now looks at the girl at the very back drawing and completely ignoring the little group or so he thought, before he could get HER out of her trance she got him out of HIS trance.

"My name is Kitty Yokuroshi, I like some things, I dislike things that bother and or annoy me and etc. Uhm what else oh my hobbies are whatever I feel like doing and my dreams… hm… I don't really dream at night and yea." Kitty spoke looking up from her drawing into her sensei's eyes givng him a grin.

Kitty smiled, and looked at her other team-mates and then went back to drawing.

Hm… interesting kid… I don't know very much about her all I know is she is one skilled ninja and very quiet… she is a stranger from another village come here to escape...hm interesting indeed.

"Alright now that we've got that settled let's start your training." (Kakashi)

"Training?" (Sakura and Naruto)

"But we just finished our training in the academy! Look at this!" (Naruto points to the headband) "You see that? It means we graduated from the academy and now we are ninjas!"

Kakashi laughs (not maniacally but mockingly) at Naruto. "That headband doesn't prove that you are a ninja your skills and abilities do. Besides not everyone from the academy will be come ninjas not even half will become Genin, out of 27 graduates only 9 will become Genin."

"What?" (Sakura and Naruto)

Don't they know anything? But than again… not all students know about that rule. (Kitty)

Kitty smiled appreciatively at her accomplished drawing (it was the same picture she was working on in the classroom the one where Kakashi got chalk all over him and the reaction of the others you remember don't you? Oh well)

Kakashi was finished explaining the terms and rules and now he was explaining the test.

"Okay tomorrow you will be tested on all that you've learned in the academy and we start at sunrise (6:00 AM) and don't eat breakfast."

"Why sensei?" (Sakura)

"Because the test we'll be so hard you don't want your breakfast coming back up do you?" (Kakashi)

The comment made Sakura and Naruto sick to their stomach Sasuke was watching the girl above him.

Was she listening to everything we were talking about? She is such a strange girl. (Sasuke)

"Hello? Yo hoo! Anybody home?" Kitty waved a hand in front of Sasuke's face.

He blinked a couple times and than regained his senses, "What?"

Strange…kid.. (Kitty)

"Uh… nothing I was just about to tell you that the "intro" thing is over and we can go home…" (Kitty)

"Oh…" (Sasuke)

They both get up and head for the directions of home. Sakura the whole while was walking and talking to Sasuke (btw he's not listening : p) Naruto was following behind them mumbling incoherent sentences about Sasuke.

"That's not very nice to say about somebody." (Kitty)

"Yeah well I don't like him very much at all." (Naruto whilst sticking his tongue out)

"Even though… I mean he doesn't even take interest in that girl." (Kitty)

"How can you tell?" (Naruto, while examining on Sasuke)

"Uh maybe the fact that he's not answering her? Or even looking at her" (Kitty)

"Yeah well… what does he got that I don't have?" (Naruto)

"Sorry but that has so many answers… I think it's quite rude to tell them to you…" (Kitty) She smiled at him.

"Oh come on tell me I can handle it!" (Naruto) He glares at her trying to get an answer.

Kitty stops walking than she starts walking in a different direction, she waves behind her shouting, "Sorry Naruto but this girl's got to go, this is my way home! Bye, see y'all tomorrow!"

Sasuke looks over Kitty's direction ignoring Sakura and looks at Naruto as he waves.


IN THE FOREST

Kitty walks into the forest calmly as if she was an innocent little girl or so the following shadow thought.

"Would you just give up I'm going round in circles… when are you going to attack?" (Kitty)

"What? How did you know?" (Kakashi)

"Sensei I know that you've been trying to learn more about me most of my sensei's want to find out about the escaping ninja but I'm not the only one. There are other escaping ninjas you just have to know where to look." (Kitty)

"But you left out one detail… my princess." (Kakashi)

(Kitty gasps) "You asked the Hokage didn't you?" (Kitty asked after she regained from shock)

"Yes." (Kakashi)

"Why do you want to know so much about me huh?" (Kitty) Glaring at her teacher she goes on walking into the forest.

Kakashi followed her and said, "I want to know so I know what type of students I'm teaching. I want to know that so that I know my teaching techniques are working. "

"Good point of view. But the only way you can find out who I really am is if you ask the Hokage yourself send him this sign and he will tell you everything you need to know about me. But one thing is clear alright? You don't speak a word of this to anyone for if you do I'm not going to be the only one after your blood and head." (Kitty says showing him the signs with her hands, after she takes her leave for home in the thicket of the trees and bushes.)

Kakashi agrees and leaves for the Hokage to get the full story of his mysterious ninja student.


The Next Day

Kitty woke up and was the first one at their meeting place. She wrote a note and placed it on the log beside her.

"Wake me up when the sensei gets here please." Sasuke read aloud to Sakura and Naruto.

They were all looking at Kitty's sleeping form.

"Should we wake her up?" Naruto asked.

"I don't know…" (Sakura)

After about 2 hours.

Kitty woke up.

"YAWN!"

"You're awake."

"Yep,"

Kitty looked at Sasuke and smiled they waited as Kakashi appeared and Sakura and Naruto were woken up by his loud entrance.

"Ah, I'm sorry that I'm late I got lost on the path of life." (Kakashi)

Naruto and Sakura glared at him as Kitty muffled her giggle.

Sasuke sighed at the glaring duo and took a strange glance at the giggling girl.

Kitty smiled she was in a real good mood today.

Kakashi then said, "Okay, let's begin your test."

Naruto and Sakura were now fully awake and listening attentively and so were Sasuke and Kitty.

"All you have to do is take these 2 bells from me and two of you will pass while the other 2 fail. But if I see you guysdoing it theright way knowing the answer to the test I'll make all of you pass or 3 of you or whatever I feel like at the end of the test." (Kakashi)

Kitty gave him a strange look but nodded as if she understood the whole concept.

Everyone nodded, they understood what the had to do.

Naruto went on his way.

Sakura tried to follow Sasuke.

Sasuke went to go look for the perfect hiding spot.

Kitty well she walked into the forest to think.

She happened on a clearing when she figured out the perfect idea.

TEAMWORK!

That's the answer!

Kitty quickly took out her sketch book and with her quick witted mind she sketched out her plan and wrote down details in such an amazing time.

Then … AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
