Disclaimer: I don't own the characters of Naruto.
A/N: Yes I know this chapter is extremely late, and to all of you that follow this fanfic I am sorry. Due to personal problems and the fact that I am grounded means that I will not be able to update this story regularly. However I will continue working on "Intertwined Destiny's" and I am writing chapters whenever I do feel creative enough so when I am finally ungrounded expect to see a lot of delayed updates. Ok back to topic since most people do not seem to vote for anything else other then Naru/Saku I have decided on the pairings myself. The pairings will be Naru/Saku, Shika/Ino and slight Neji/Ten and Kiba/Hina. Naru/Saku and Shika/Ino are personal favorites of mine so those should be easy enough to write about. Neji/Ten and Kiba/Hina are going to be a little harder but ill se what I can do.
-----Team Seven's Training Area------
Kakashi takes out two bells and jingles them together. "So lets see how much you two have improved…"
Smiling Naruto and Sakura get up from the ground. Reaching into her back pocket Sakura takes out two black gloves and puts them on. Naruto tightens his headband and dusts some dirt off his pants.
Clipping the bells back onto his weapon pouch Kakashi takes out a small timer and places it on a log. Then copy-nin flips back a couple of feet and takes a defensive position. "Okay same rules as last time, you have until the timer runs out. Remember come at me with a killer intent if you plan on taking a bell…"
With a gust of wind both Naruto and Sakura disappear from view.
------Kakashi's POV-----
"Good it seems they both learned how to hide their presences better…at least Naruto isn't attacking head on like before." Feeling a presence behind him Kakashi turns around to see Naruto charging at him head on with a kunai. Kakashi sweatdrops "maybe I spoke to soon…"
Allowing Naruto to come within arms reach Kakashi grabs Naruto's wrist snapping it to one side and forcing the kunai out of his hand. Then using the genin's own leverage the copy-nin throws his student face first into the ground. Where the "Naruto" promptly pops into a cloud of smoke.
"…shit"
The moment the kage bunshin hit the ground, as many as fifty projectiles from all direction shoot out of the trees. All of these kunai's, shurikens, sebons and other weapons all speed toward one target, Kakashi.
Pulling off one of his legendary escapes the copy-nin replaces himself with a log a second before the projectiles turn him into a human porcupine. Landing twenty or so feet away Kakashi decides to intercept his student before he is allowed to make anymore traps.
Taking out a scroll Kakashi uses a kunai to make a small cut on his thumb. Then opening up the scroll he wipes off the blood on the scroll. Rolling up the scroll back to its former form Kakashi then goes through a complicated series of hand seals in conjunction with the scroll. Once finished with the seals Kakashi crouches down and slams his hand onto the ground.
Except that his hands never actually made contact with the ground. Seconds before Kakashi went to finish his summoning a pair of hands erupt out of the ground and grab onto his ankles.
"Doton Shinjuu Zanshu no Jutsu!" (Inner Decapitation Skill) The arms then pull the surprised Kakashi into the ground up to his chin while another Naruto pops out of the ground.
"Sakura-chan now!"
Sakura jumps out of a nearby tree and dives right at her sensei with her fist.
Sensing that his life might be severely shortened if he didn't do something, Kakashi charges up a small Chidori destroying the clone holding him captive and effectively blowing up the ground around him.
Once again Kakashi barely dodges an attack from one of his students by flipping backwards onto his hands thus dodging Sakura's punch of doom.
-----Sakura's POV------
"Yes Naruto's got sensei trapped!" Smiling the pink haired genin prepares to make her entrance.
"Sakura-chan now!"
Concentrating chakra onto her feet Sakura jumps head on straight at her sensei. Then concentrating chakra into her fist the Hokage's Apprentice prepares to do what she like to do best.
"Heh Kakashi-sensei if you can't dodge this its going to take Tsunade-sama awhile to put your nose back together."
Blue electric-like chakra emanates from Kakashi's hand as he blows up the terrain below him.
A smile appears on Sakura's face. "Heh he fell for it!"
As expected Kakashi dodges Sakura's initial attack by flipping back and landing on his hands.
Sakura blurs past Kakashi and her fist hits the ground. Upon hitting the ground Sakura releases all the chakra compressed in her fists. Sakura's punch causes a crater to form from the impact. From the epicenter of the collision a network of spider-web like cracks form in the surrounding ground. A second later the whole clearing explodes as rocks are blown apart and the ground is ripped open.
-----General POV-----
Kakashi once again performs Kawamari-no jutsu to save himself from being crushed under a slate of rock. After relocating to a "safer" spot the Jounin jumps form one overturned rock to another to get away from the mini earthquake. After putting what he hoped was a safe distance between the medic-nin and himself the copy-nin decides to catch his breath.
"I guess I cannot afford to underestimate you two any longer…" Kakashi brings his right hand to the left side of his face. He slowly removes his headband off his left eye revealing the Legendary Sharingan that gave him his nickname as well as his array of jutsu's. Scanning his surroundings Kakashi gazes at the trees surrounding the clearing.
"Hmm impressive Naruto surrounded the whole clearing with over a thousand clones, that's why he was able to set up all those projectiles. It also seems that the blockade of clones is meant to prevent me from exiting the clearing so they can keep track of me."
"Okay then if I can't get through normally I guess I just have to force my way through."
Kakashi dashes forward at an unthinkable speed toward the forest. Seeing that her sensei is escaping Sakura begins to chase after him.
Once Kakashi reaches around 50 feet away from the edge of the clearing Naruto clones start popping into existence as an attempt to intercept the Jounin. Kakashi goes through a set of hand seals and slams his hands onto the ground. "Doton Itadaki no jutsu!" (Earth Spikes) the ground starts to shake and ten to twelve spikes made out of earth pop out of the ground impaling the clones.
Kakashi looks up at the thick foliage "Heh you're going to have to do better then that Naruto."
A blonde figure dressed in black jumps out of trees in front of the copy-nin. Smiling Naruto raises one hand and waves at his sensei. "Heh I should have known I wouldn't be able to hide from you Kakashi-sensei."
"Naruto you have really improved, you can manipulate your clones to an extent that even most Jounin's cannot. However that is all you have done so far don't tell me that's all you learned in theses past two years?"
"No fair sensei of course I learned other things but I like annoying people with my clones. Well I guess we will just have to show you how much we improved."
Sakura jumps in behind Kakashi "ok sensei no more playing around its time to finish this, right Naruto?"
"Yeah let's go!"
Both genin attack Kakashi at the same time. Naruto rushes forward and attempts to punch Kakashi head on while Sakura jumps up and aims a kick to the Jounin's head. Kakashi spins around and grabs Sakura by the ankle and throws her at Naruto direction then throws a couple of shuriken at them both. Naruto jumps in front of Sakura and uses a kunai to deflect the shuriken while Sakura goes through a set of hand seals "Chakra Enjintou!" a green aurasurrounds Sakuras hands.
Sakura dashes forward and swipes at the Jounin with her hands. Kakashi jumps back and attempts to sweep kick the medic-nin. Sakura jumps over Kakashi's kick and grabs his right shoulder with her hand. A jolt of pain goes through Kakashi's body and the Jounin finds that he cannot move his right arm anymore. "Shit Sakura disabled my right arm preventing me from using any more jutsu's, I guess I have to resort to taijutsu for now…"
Kakashi jumps back away from Sakura however he is quickly pursued by Naruto. Naruto puts his hands in a familiar hand seal while running "Kage Bunshin no jutsu!" around thirty clones materialize around the Genin. All the clones attack Kakashi at once attempting to overpower him in numbers. The copy-nin jumps on one of the clones shoulders and kicks it on the back of its head. Then he jumps off of it and kicks two more in the face. Kakashi then back flips to dodge a swipe from a kunai and spins on his hand successfully kicking seven more out of existence.
One clone however manages to get through Kakashi's defense and kicks him in the stomach and boosts him into the air. Four more clones kick him further up and three more punch him even further. The original Naruto jumps over Kakashi and attempts to kick him in his stomach and drive him into the ground "Naruto Redan!"
Moments before Naruto finishes his combo Kakashi once again replaces himself with a log and reappears over Naruto. He then grabs the genin's arms, locking them behind him and drives him into the ground. However Naruto replaces himself with a log and reappears behind him a blue Rasengan spinning in his hand. Kakashi grabs Naruto's wrist pushing it to the side and kicking the genin in his chest. Then using his leverage Kakashi jumps off Naruto's chest right into the direction of Sakura.
"Oh crap…"
A glint of determination shines in the Hokage's Apprentice's eyes as she drives her fist into Kakashi's chest and sends her sensei flying into the ground. Kakashi hits the ground, hard, and rolls a couple of feet away. After lying back for a few seconds the Jounin slowly gets back to his feet. Looking up he sees both his students in front of him, both genin smile and wave at the copy-nin while showing off two golden bells.
"So you both managed to get a bell, why am I not surprised…anyway when did you both get the bells?"
"Well I got mine when you dodged my first punch since you were to distracted with dodging the rocks." Replies Sakura smiling and flashing the victory sign with her hand.
"And I got mine when all my clones attacked you at once and pushed you into the air." adds Naruto.
Kakashi realizes his own mistake "I lost my focus on keeping the bells safe and instead put all my attention into fending off their attacks."
Naruto starts jumping up and down "So Kakashi-sensei what do you think, did we pass?"
"Yes you both pass excellent teamwork you two, you both improved tremendously these past two years."
"Yes! Naruto we did it!" Sakura jumps up and gives Naruto a hug causing the blonde genin to blush.
"Ahem…"
Both genin suddenly jump back their faces flushing red.
"Anyway if both of you got the last bell after Naruto swarmed me with clones why did you continue attacking me Sakura?"
"Heh think of that as payback for all the times you've been late sensei!" replies Naruto and Sakura at the same time.
A/N: Ok finally chapter six is done hope you all enjoyed it. I was originally going to keep the bell test the same as the manga but rereading that chapter I found the ending kind of stupid. Anyway hopefully I will get the next chapter out sometime this month but I cannot promise anything, until then please Review!
