Thanks for the reviews, you've gotten me all motivated to do a third chapter… the same day I released the first! Thank you!

Chapter three,

"HHMMM…" Naruto sighed as he ate an 8th bowl of ramen. He loved the stuff, more than himself. And almost as much as Sakura. Sakura… He paused in mid slurp and started to choke, but was rescued by Kiba, who kicked him.

"Oi, don't you even know how to eat?" Kiba asked laughing

"Shut up, why don't you go do something?"

"Our team passed a test, so we get a treat out!"

"Lucky dunce… I wish I could!"

"Maybe you should pass a test, eh Akamaru?" the dog woofed in approval. Kiba then walked over to his group, where Hinata was sitting in a corner, staring at Naruto, and Shino was entertaining himself by making fly dance a mid air ballet.

Once Naruto finished eating (eight bowls of ramen later) he went out to try to find something to do. He couldn't train… He had used up all his money, and couldn't buy stuff… while he was waiting; he heard a noise behind him. He turned, and saw nothing. He turned back, and the noise again… He turned quick, nothing. He got up, as if to leave, and suddenly, from above dropped an odd object, a small dangerous-

"Hey Konohamaru." Naruto said.

"DANG IT!" the midgety boy yelled, stomping his feet down over and over. "Dang! Dang! Dang! DANG!"

"Aw, don't get worked up, you could never sneak up on me!"

"sniffle yeah I can! I will," Konohamaru paused then, and looked around, "hey, where's that one pink haired babe of yours? I thought you to were… you know (he then does that cute little gesture)"

"No Idea, Konohamaru. So what are you up to?"

"Nothing. I was hoping you had something."

They both sweat dropped in this sudden silence, and looked at each other, then konohamaru, pretended to hear someone in the distance.
"I gotta go… See you, chief!"

"Bye Kid!" Naruto said, grinning at the anger on Konohamaru face of being called kid."

Naruto went home, did his usual routine and went to sleep. He finally awoke from a dream in the middle of the night of him fighting chouji in a ramen eating contest, but then the ramen turning into salt water, and the horrible, horrible taste. He finally went to sleep on much more pleasant topics- him drowning in Ramen. His alarm clock, fizzled and exploded instead of ringing, and Naruto awoke to a small fire on his bed side.

"Crap!" he yelled, and forgetting he was a ninja who knew a singular water jutsu, he ran and grabbed a liquid- cologne (its quite flammable) this only succeeded in making it worse, till he finally found some water to put out the fire. Now he needed a new alarm clock. Crap. He ran out for training, and was surprised to see from his considerable distance, Kakashi!

"What's wrong Kakashi; forget to set your alarm wrong?" Kakashi turned, and then gave Naruto the one minute sign. He then turned back to Sakura and Sasuke, and they moved out.

"Sorry Naruto, I just sent them on a B mission. To bad you were late."

"WHAT!" yelled with a demons fury.

"What a gullible dunce!" Sasuke said from behind him.

"Call me that one more time! I dare you!" Naruto shook his fist at Sasuke, who just laughed.

"Settle down, children." Kakashi told them, angering them both. "I have a new kind of exercise for you today. Sakura can't hide, Naruto can't track, and Sasuke, just doesn't care. So, go home. Report back in an hour, after you find sakura."

"What If we don't?" asked Naruto

"Isn't that like asking what happens if you stab yourself with a kunai?"

"You die"

"hm." And with that, Kakashi disappeared. Naruto looked around. Thinking of how there was no way Sasuke could beat him this time, ha, he'd leave that fool in the dust! He started to move, when he heard a leaf rustle.

"What are you DOING Sasuke?" Naruto asked his ever tree climbing friend.

"Shut up dunce, I think I see something!"

Kakashi appeared, then, with sakura, a wild look in his eye.

"Come quick, Sasuke!" he said, and pulled Sasuke with him.
