I'm back with another chapter!

Have fun reading it!

"Today we are going to start with some tai-justu. Keiko, you can sit down for a while. Sarana and Kuraiko, you will fight against each other." Orochimaru announced the nest day at the training fields. It was a habit for all of them to go there first thing in the morning so they can train before their master went working on his experiments the rest of the day.

The three girls did as they were told. Keiko knew the others were fighting first, because Tai-jutsu was the thing she could do best so there was no need for her to practice it. The other two stood face to face waiting for more instructions.

"It will be the usual hand-to-hand-combat as always. Go!"

That was the command they neded. The two girls ran at each other, throwing punches and kicks at each other. Meanwhile, Orochimaru accompanied Keiko who sat on the floor.

"They're getting better, aren't they?" He asked.

"You're the master, so you're the one who has to judge, but if you really want to know my opinion, yes, I think they've improved." Keiko answered honestly.

"You're right!" Orochimaru laughed. "You girls seem pretty tired. What's wrong with you, didn't you get any sleep?"

"Unfortunately no. We had some troubles with memories of our past."

"That's strange. How can it be that each of you three has these problems lately?"

"I don't know, but I hope that it's only a phase that will be over, soon."

"I can understand that..." he stated. "Ah it seems like Sarana and Kuraiko are finished. You did well, you two. Now come, Keiko. Take your sword and fight against me while the other two rest."

"Yes, Master!" The three answered at the same time.

While Keiko and Orochimaru battled, Sarana and Kuraiko observed them. They noticed that Keiko has improved as well. The day she arrived at the hideout, she couldn't even last five minutes against her master, but now she seemed to be equal to him. She was very good in Ken-Jutsu, fighting with a sword. After some time, the girls got bored, so they decided to train with some clones since the other two would probably take much longer.

Kuraiko created one clone and used her Gen-Jutsu on it, showing a beautiful mountain landscape which transferred to her own mind when dissolving the clone. Of course, if her opponent was someone else, an enemy for example, she would never show them beautiful pictures through the Gen-jutsu, but since in this case she was the one to see all of that in the end, she always used nice views in training.

Suddenly, someone opened the big door to the training fields. It was Kabuto who seemed to be stressed out.

"I'm sorry to interrupt your training, Orochimaru-sama, but I need Sarana. May she come with me and continue her training later? It's an emergency."

"Of course. Sarana, go with him!" Orochimaru ordered.

"Yes!"

Maybe you, the reader, are now interested and want to know why Sarana was the one Kabuto asked for if it was an emergency. That's because the man she'd called father after being sold to his family was a medic. Since he really liked her in contrast too his wife, he taught her how to use medical nin-jutsu and a little bit in fighting, too. Sarana helped Kabuto with keeping the experiment or Orochimaru's other subordinates alive.

After some time, Orochimaru finally won the fight against Keiko.

"I'm proud of you all, please let Sarana know that, too. Now go get some sleep, you must be exhausted." After saying that, he left the training fields followed by the girls who immediately went to their room.

I hope you like this chapter!

Quick reminder that English isn't my mother language, so please tell me if I've made any mistakes so I can correct them.

I'd be glad if you could also leave a review so I know if you like my story or not and what I could do better next time. I'll also answer to every review at the beginning of the next chapters.

Thank you and see ya!
