Recap:
Not shortly after Nami set off too. Aome effortlessly jumped rooftop to rooftop, he was a little over half way there already. He saw a shadow move in his direction from the corner of his eye, turned quickly, and threw a kunai at it. He heard Nami scream.
"You bloody idiot!" Nami screamed as she pulled a kunai out of her lower arm. "Well to tell you the truth, the bloody one here is yo-" Aome started, "Hey, whatchu set off that flare for?" "You big dope, remember how Iruka sensei said that we would be put through a test to see if we were really qualified as ninja? This is the test!" Nami grabbed a roll of bandages from her back pocket. "Hmmm. Are you sure you're not just being overly paranoid?" Aome said as he watched Nami wrap it around her arm. Sarah came sprinting toward the two shinobi. "Hey!" she shouted, "Did Genma sensei attack him yet?" Aome's jaw fell open, "Attack?" "Yeah, but we'll have to tell you later, its five to ten!" Nami just finished wrapping her arm and grabbed Aome and Sarah's arms, "Common, there's not much time, and he's sure to attack." The three jumped off. Genma watched from a nearby roof, disguised as a cat. He followed them in the shadows. --three to ten--The three we nearly there, they could see the bench that Nami and Sarah had sat on earlier that night. They jumped down onto the street and kept running. A sudden jerk from below Aome's feet and he was thoroughly stuck in the hard cold ground. "Aome kun! Baka baka bak--" Nami whined, fwoomp and she was in the ground too. "Baakaa baakaa baakaa!" Aome mocked. "Why you!" Nami turned a bright red. fwoomp And Sarah was in the ground too. "Great, now what?" Sarah let out an exasperated sigh. The three shinobi looked towards their destination, "Hey guys! What took you so long?" Genma waved, "Hurry up, or I might have to send ya back." Four to ten. "Can anyone move their arms, just a little bit?" Sarah asked, "Mine are thoroughly stuck." Nami said, "You Aome kun?" "Hmm, I think I can, just a little bit though, not enough to form a hand seal or anything." Aome squirmed under the hard earth. "Damn." -- four to ten -- "Sorry." "Eh?" Sarah and Nami said in unison. They both looked toward each Aome, confused. "You just got caught up by Genma sensei, right?" Sarah said, "No big deal." She smiled weakly. Aome smiled sheepishly back, "Well, you see, I, erm… I actually hadn't left till about two minutes before you found me, Nami." "Whaaa? You bloody idiot, baka baka baka! So you did screw us over in the end, why I oughta give you a piece of my mind!" She screamed, "You dragged the whole team down because you were too lazy to get a head start! What are you even good at anyways?" "..Uh…" Aome kept squirmed around in the earth some more "Great, just wonderful," Nami sighed. -- three to ten -- Genma yawned, "I'm tired, can we hurry this up?" "Yes." Aome disappeared in a puff as a swarm of kunai and throwing stars hailed down upon Genma. Genma, shocked, failed to dodge the first, which skimmed his cheek and left a small scratch, damn, I pricked my tongue on my senbon again,this brought his senses back to full strength, and in a combo of dodging and parrying the cloud of weapons fell to the ground and disappeared in a puff of smoke. Sarah gasped, her leg began to warm up, "Ah! Nami!" she whispered in a hurried voice. -- two to ten -- Just as the smoke was clearing and Genma began to regain his senses for the second time, Aome came at him, this time the real one for sure. Kunai in one hand, Aome leapt for his sensei, Got 'im. Genma dodged… forwards?The senbon in his mouth aimed right for Aome's bright blue eye. ching The noise of metal hitting it's target. The round back of Sarah's kunai knife hooked Genma's senbon; it flew a couple feet and landed with a light clink. -- one to ten -- Aome smirked and lunged toward his sensei once more. "Baka! Get to the bench fool!" Nami yelled, "The mission is always our first objective, forget fighting, blue eyes dumb ass!" "But-" Aome dropped his guard and hit the ground with a devastating crunch. He squinted in pain, he could see the bench right before him, and lifted himself up onto it, his arm was bent in a funny position. Genma smiled, "Alright, you guys can go home now, we'll meet here again at nine tomorrow," He motioned Aome to follow, "Are you ok? You come with me, we'll get it checked out," he rubbed the back of his head, "heh, sorry. :)"
"God I'm tired." Tatsuya said. Leanne smiled, "Really? I'm not tried at all this morning, but then again, my brother and I usually wake up at four to begin our daily exercises. You should try it, Tatsu kun! It's good for you." "T-Tatsu kun?" Tatsuya's mild sleepy look changed to a mildly annoyed look, "Where did THAT come from? Never call me that again." "Okay, Tatsu kun" Emiko giggled. Tatsuya sighed, "Whatever." "Oy!" Anko called out in a boyish manner, with her mouth full of odango, "Let's get started then, shall we?" The three nodded. "Ok, I'm gunna put you to the test." She held out three key chains with little bears eating odango on it, "I'm goin--" "AH! Kawaii!" Leanne squealed. Anko cleared her throat, "As I was saying, I'm going to LEND" she looked at Leanne, "these to you an--" "Ah! Kawaii!" Leanne squealed. Emiko giggled. "Going to LEND these to you," Anko looked at Leanne, daring her to do it again, "AH! Kawa--ii?" Leanne's smile dropped as Anko stared straight at Leanne. "Oh, uh, please continue sensei." "You will take them and hide in the forest for one hour. Shortly after you leave, I will begin to hunt you down, if I steal your keychain, you fail. The keychain cannot leave your body at any time, or you'll fail that way. The boundaries are this forest; anyone who breaks any of the rules will have to face me. Catch" She threw them each a keychain, "the hour starts now." They all jumped up to the nearest tree and sped off in their own direction. Anko finished her last odango, "And the hunt begins."
Emiko passed Leanne, "Leanne chan! Let's stick together, ok?" "Cool" Leanne smiled as she sped up to catch up to Emiko, "Where'd you put your keychain?" Emiko smiled and stuck her hand in her obi and withdrew her keychain. Leanne lunged for it, her finger brushed it, but missed narrowly as Emiko stepped back to evade, "What's wrong with you!" In a poof, Anko revealed herself, "You trust people way too much, brat." Anko jumped off. Emiko looked down at her keychain, "was that the whole test?" "No." Anko came out of the trees behind her and nailed her right in the back, "Don't let your guard down." Emiko swiveled around, "I won't make the same mistake twice." And with that grabbed the branch above her head and swung her feet at Anko who easily dodged it. "You're no match for me, shrimp." Anko wrapped her hand around Emiko's ankle and yanked her off her limb (heh heh, get it limb-branc- slapped). Tatsuya watched from his cloaked spot in the trees, I know she's my comrade, but I don't think only two genin can stand a chance against a jounin, not to mention, if I reveal myself, she might grab my keychain. Emiko took one to the face. Her back hit a branch and she fell a good ten feet down to the next big bough. She sat up and coughed up blood. "Heh. Too bad your comrade is too shaken to help you. Traitor." Anko looked right at Tatsuya, who froze. Dammit, she knew I was here the whole time. He thought, I've got to retreat for now, I'll come back for her, I swear. Someone grabbed his arm and he twisted to face Leanne, red in the face, "Don't even think about leaving." She jumped down, foot first to smash her sole into Anko's face, "Too slow." Anko reached up and grabbed her foot. She pulled down, punching Leanne square in them face when Leanne's face came to eye level, "You need to consider your position before you jump in, Leanne chan." Leanne flew back and landed on a nearby tree. Damn, I've got to go in, Leanne was right, I can't leave them there while I go find shelter. Anko walked over to Emiko and stepped on her hand, where she still held they keychain, "I'll take th--" She took a blow from the side, "I am your opponent, Anko sensei." Anko took out a kunai, "You seem to have a tendency to interrupt my sentences, I'll have to fix that." Leanne dodged the kunai, but got hit by a second that lay in its shadow, shit. Anko went for a second hit with a throwing star, but it was reflected just barely by a senbon, "We've got to team up." Tatsuya said. "Ah, so the Traitor appears, finally got tired of watching your comrades get creamed?" Anko sneered. Tatsuya threw another senbon, this time directed for Anko's neck. It missed. "You fool." Anko said as she formed a hand sign, "Art of--" she coughed, a look of pain spread across her face. Leanne's eyes were a dull misty black, and she was forming an unfamiliar hand sign, her kekkei genkai no doubt. Anko felt her chakra draining slowly, she had to stop the flow of her chakra or she would be drained completely, a dangerous state to be in. She relaxed her hand sign, and the pulling stopped, she would have to hold off on using her chakra, for now, she would focus on taijutsu. Thump Emiko landed one right on Anko's back, Anko had moved just enough to avoid getting hit on her spine, she grabbed Emiko's hair and "sousa kanashimi wo yasashisa ni jibun rashisa wo chikara ni" "Ah, that's my timer, times up munchkins. Good job, congrats, and all that, I'm going back home to sleep, I'll meet you tomorrow at nine here, we'll go from there. Give me my key chains and go home." Anko said, releasing Emiko's hair. They all got out their key chains. "Wait." Emiko said, rubbing her scalp, "It's only 6:55." Anko shrugged, "Got m--" "Anko sensei?" Leanne said. "Shut up I was trying to talk." Anko retaliated, "You got me, but next time, take out your item only after you've made sure, I could have snatched them by now. If that were confidential information, and you'd let it out, you'd be in a hell of a lot of crap, now go home, I'm too tired to fight for the last five minutes, fight amongst yourselves or somethin." Anko walked off.
On the way back, they passed a Naruto playing with some little kid, "Hey, isn't that the honorable grandson of the third?" Emiko said. Leanne laughed, "Can't be so honorable is he's been hanging out with Naruto, now can he?" "He's cute." Tatsuya said, blushing, "what? I was just saying, I'm not going to do anything, god." The two kounichi laughed. "Cuz I like older men." "…" Awkward silence. "Hey, what was it that you were going to ask Anko sensei anyways?" Tatsuya asked, changing the subject. "Oh, nothing, I just wanted to interrupt her." Leanne chuckled.
