I updated this story on wattpad yesterday and completely forgot to update this here Lmao-

Anyway-


Four days had pass and ino had finally came to accept her fate of being team up with shikamaru, although he was lazy, his actually pretty smart. Smarter than you think.

Within those four days they all get to know more about each other, they as well tried to train as a team and even talk about self improvement which indeed helps a lot.

hm~ maybe it's not that bad at all~ ino happily hums to herself. She's getting ready as they have a mission today, their first mission ever! Although it's rank D ino was happy enough knowing she really did pass into becoming a young Shinobi.

Okay! Ino Yamanaka from this onwards your adventure begins as a Shinobi! Her eyes sparkle at her own thoughts, she may be a genin right now but soon she'll be a jounin just like their sensei!

Motivated, Ino now left her home, not after saying bye to her parents of course.

...

..

...

"wow what a miracle! How come you're the first to arrive here?" ino astoundedly spoke as she thought she'll be the first one to arrive but no, surprisingly shikamaru was already there. Lazily yawning and he seems to be complaining about it too..

"huh? i may be lazy but it doesn't mean my mom is..." he mumbled but enough for ino to hear causing her to burst out laughing "pft- ahahahahha How unsurprising that you're mom force you out of bed!" ino laughs to the point it felt like she's waking the neighbors nearby the huge gate, which is like kilometers away from them.

"tsk! It's already troublesome enough that i had to wait first here! And the second to arrive was a crazy woman!" shikamaru complained already feeling the headache first thing in the morning. It does not cheer him one bit that he forgot to eat enough.

"Wah- hey what do you mean 'crazy woman'!?" ino gasps in offense

"first and foremost- I'm a LADY and second of all- Im NOT Crazy!" she huffs although she isn't really angry about it, to be honest she can completely agreed that she may be crazy... BUT she's not going to say that. Nah Uh!

"wow you two are early"

Both of them turned their head to see choji, approaching slowly with an onigiri at hand. He was munching on it and since shikamaru barely ate breakfast, He can feel his stomach rumbling. "?? you want one shikamaru? I had more in my bag" choji although sad about losing more food he was more than happy to offer food for his hungry friend

Shikamaru sighs nodding his head. There's no way he can deny the hunger his feeling, let alone when they already heard his stomach complain. "How come you're hungry? You didn't eat before leaving?" Ino genuinely ask in curiosity "don't even ask... my mom send me off with just a small sandwich... Really." He spoke, mumbling 'troublesome'

'oh yeah i almost forgot... Where is sensei? Is he late? How bad of an example! If anything He should be first to arrive!' Ino disapprovingly shook her head.

・・.・゚: *・゚* ・・.

Ino can count how late their sensei was, not because his not that late but because she was feeling petty for making them wait actually not them. She can understand that yes this is a Rank D mission, not as important as what jonin's does still! They're his student, the new generation of Shinobi! Someone should step us as a good example of being a ninja and that should be there sensei!

'somehow i still feel angry about it.. Hmp!'

It isn't long before they reach their destination. In this... Wide farm their mission was to...

Pick up trash

Harvest Crops

Help in taking care of Livestock's

Clean the home of the owner...

'W-what the!? what kind of mission is this?!'

Ino can already hear shikamaru complaining about all the work to be done and choji about how tiring this can be however ino on the other hand.. She feel confident AS- The Ino Yamanaka had

Always clean their home

She once helps a Relative into harvesting

She works on a flower shop therefore is very careful with everything

What she's not confident is about the livestock... There is no way she wouldn't freak out over there.

The reason ino mostly cleans their home and shop at least once a week was because she doesn't like seeing dust and dirt.. Livestock will probably full of dirt, specially the pigs.

...

...

...

...

...

Time passes and the sunset had disappeared.. They started as 7. So early in the morning and just finished!

"waahh! I can't take this anymore I'm so tired!" ino finally complained as she drop herself on the floor, panting for life. "right.. asuma... sensei please.. tell me were... done..." Shikamaru plead breathing for air in each word as he also lay along with the other two on the floor, Choji can only grunt and fake cry as his too tired to speak.

Asuma can only chuckle at them "don't worry were done for today, rest now since were also leaving after one hour" he can only recieve a grunt of complain.

'ugh... he says that but if he did actually work with us his probably gonna stay here and just go back tomorrow!!' Ino, Screams internally with pure anger.

・・.・゚: *・゚* ・・.

"We're freee!!" Choji yelled in happiness and shikamaru almost fainting that HE, the man himself. Can finally sleep comfortably once again while ino can only think about her needing and wanting food.

"Now-now don't go yet" they all turned to their sensei with a frown wishing they wouldn't be needing to train today because what the hell they just got back! "what's that look for? Ahahhaah none of you want barbeque?" choji quickly light up, his eyes shape into stars while he drools by the imagine of a delicious, smoky barbeque

"w-we're going to eat!??!" upon confirmation, choji had celebrated more. Although both ino and shikamaru were tired they did not refuse a free food.

'well... I'm feeling quite hungry and the food i ate before leaving that farm isn't much... Maybe i can eat how much i wanted today!'

Ino catch up to them "me too sensei! i want a desert and soup along with the barbeque!" she requested happily thinking about Shabu Shabu "huh? not on diet anymore i see" shikamaru tease making ino puff her cheeks in redness before deciding to argue with him "I am ON diet but since we did a lot of work! I don't mind eating a lot... It's not like I can't lose weight heheh~" ino spoke, Flipping her hair which make shikamaru roll his eyes.

・・.・゚: *・゚* ・・.

Being in this team is not bad...

Actually the sensei is kinda weird but his fine and actually do his work while my team .. Naruto and sakura..

I guess they're ok.

Sakura is annoying but sensei had come to say that sakura is more into strategy, back up and medical help of our team

Naruto is great to have, his mostly who i spar with during training since he actually had such a large stamina and chakra to use. He as well manage to fight great even after being the dead last although he seems to be very. And VERY competitive to me.

I don't mind, he just bring more challenge to me anyway. This is another way to get stronger.

...

..

Huh? Is that ino?

Oh.. She's with her teammates and she doesn't seem to notice me

She looks like she just came back from a mission..

i wonder what mission was it? should i get closer?

"huh? Not on diet anymore i see" i heard shikamaru speak and i can see ino turned to him with a red face

"I am ON diet but since we did a lot of work! I don't mind eating a lot... It's not like I can't lose weight heheh~" Ino said confidently, flipping her hair before giggling

...

There conversation continues but i didn't bother to listen.. After all. All of them will speak to one another before genuinely laughing

...

I wish I'm just her teammate so we can also laugh together like that..

"Sasuke kun! where are you? Sasuke kun did you forget all of us will eat together??!" i can hear sakura call put for me which i..

sighs..

i should go back with them i guess ...

I look at ino's direction again

"You seem happy with them.. It's making me jealous"

・・.・゚: *・゚* ・・.
