A/N: Masashi Kishimoto owns Naruto. Not me. I only own Shirayuki. I forgot to mention this in the first chapter. This is my latest story. If you read what I have posted already and are waiting for me to update it. I will as soon as I get the inspiration to write the chapter that needs to written. Have some faith in me please? And as always read and review please. Also, Sasuke is going to seem OOC at times. Italics are thoughts. "Italics" is Inner Sakura. Bold is Sound effects.
Chapter Three: I have an Idea.
"Those without a bell at noon go without lunch." Kakashi stated as he attached the bells to his belt. "Also not only will I tie you to those stumps but I will eat lunch in front of you." Shira opened her eyes and stood up while taping Sasuke on arm three times. Sasuke nodded his head slightly as he ran a hand down Shira's arm in return. No one noticed this movement while all three of them thought the same thing about their sensei not wanting them to eat breakfast.
"This is going to be more troublesome than I thought… no sleep plus no breakfast…" Shira muttered while Sasuke looked at her.
"I'll be around to help you." Sasuke told her softly while he smirked at her. Shira smirked back and nodded her head before turning her attention to Kakashi again.
"You only have to get one bell. Since there is only two bells, two of you will definitely be tied to the stumps without lunch." Kakashi stated as he got a dark look on his face. "And also, the two who doesn't get a bell will be sent back to the academy." Shira paled slightly as she thought hard.
Be sent back to the academy? Well… if I get a bell and Naruto doesn't… then I'll give mine to him… he deserves to be a ninja. If nothing else… I'll give Sasuke my bell if I get one. Shira thought as she rubbed her forehead before taking a deep breath in.
"You can use shurikens and kunais if you want. You will not be able to get a bell unless you come at me with the intent to kill." Kakashi stated as he looked at all four of the genins on his team. Shira ignored Sakura as she mentioned that the weapons were dangerous and Naruto made fun of him for not being able to dodge an eraser. Shira closed her eyes for one second to drown out Naruto even more. When she opened them she watched as Naruto pulled a kunai out and charged at Kakashi, only to have Kakashi yank his arm to where the kunai was pointing at his neck.
"Naruto!" Shira pulled a kunai out ready to throw at Kakashi should he try anything.
"Calm down." Kakashi said to Naruto as he looked at Shira from the corner of his eye. "I haven't said start yet." So… Shira sees Naruto as a teammate already and will protect him if I tried to do something to him. She's smart so she probably has at least ten moves and fifteen possible outcomes for each move. Kakashi thought as he smirked. "Well at least you came at me with the intent to kill. Heh, I think I'm starting to like you guys."
"Can we start yet or are you going to waste our time to where I could have gone cloud watching with my brother today instead? Man, what a drag." Shira groaned out as Kakashi looked over at her with an amused expression.
"Alright, start!" Kakashi stated causing all four of his students to disappear, or so he thought. When Kakashi caught sight of Naruto he couldn't help but sigh. "You know, compared to the others… you're a little weird." Naruto continued to insult him before going to attack him. Kakashi pulled out a book causing all four students to be confused.
"A book?! He plans to read while we try to get the damn bells?" Shira demanded as she looked at Sasuke, who she was hiding with. Sasuke looked down at her and shrugged.
"Don't know Yuki." Sasuke called her his favorite nickname for her, causing the Nara girl to smile. He smiled back at her before turning his attention to see Naruto hanging upside down in the air, being lectured by Kakashi. Now's my chance! Sasuke thought as he threw some shuriken at Kakashi. The shuriken hit Kakashi before he disappeared into a poof a smoke leaving behind a log.
"He used the substitution jutsu!" Shira exclaimed as the two of the jumped up before splitting up and heading in different directions. Hearing Naruto shout again, Shira landed in some bushes and looked over at the tree to see that Naruto had cut himself down and then got caught once again. Oh Naruto… You knucklehead. Shira thought to herself as she looked around before going over to Naruto. "Hold still Naruto so I can hit the rope."
"What do you mean?" Naruto asked as he looked at Shira confused as she held a kunai in her hand.
"I mean that you need to stop flailing around like a fish on a fishing line so that I can it the rope and get you down." Shira explained as she watched her words sink into Naruto's head. Naruto suddenly stopped moving and gave Shira the chance to cut him down.
"Thanks Shira." Naruto said to her as she started to move away from him towards the trees. Shira looked back at him and smiled before taking off into the trees again. Hearing a loud scream Shira stopped as she looked up into the trees.
"That sounded like Sakura." Shira stated before she came into a clearing to see Sasuke. "Sas." She called out to him as the raven-haired male turned in her direction.
"You okay?" Sasuke asked as he looked her over for cuts and scrapes that could show that she was hurt and the one who screamed, though he guessed it was Sakura but he wanted to make sure it wasn't Shira.
"Yeah. We need to find Kakashi-sensei. I have an idea." Shira stated as she walked over to Sasuke with a smirk on her face. Sasuke smirked back in return as he leaned down some to let Shira whisper her plan into his ear. Sasuke nodded his head in agreement as he looked back at Shira.
"Smart plan. Alright, go hide and be safe." Sasuke said as he leaned his forehead against hers quickly. Shira hummed in agreement before disappearing, pulling on a strand of his hair as if to tell him to be safe as well.
