'Thoughts'
"Speech"
I don't own Naruto now let's begin
5 A.M. at training ground seven
Hinata was standing waiting for her team mates and sensei. She had gotten there early to make a good impression and to greet her team mates. She waited five minutes before seeing both her team mates walking on opposite sides towards her. She giggled as she saw Naruto walking like a zombie with his eyes shut because of how early it was. She looked to her left and saw Sasuke with bags under his eyes.
That's when she realised that it was early for most. She was completely used to it because her father would wake her up to train at the same time before she graduated. But stop last year saying it was a waste of time since she was weak and started to train Hanabi instead. "G-good morning Sasuke and N-naruto-kun." greeted Hinata Naruto mumbled an inaudible jumble of words as a greeting while sasuke opted to nod his. Hinata giggled at it then reached in her ninja pack for something.
"Here e-eat this it should help wake y-you up i grew it myself t-to use for situations like these." she said before pulling out two bluish green leaves, and handing one each to them. Sasuke looked at it wearily, while Naruto just popped it into his mouth. Naruto eyes suddenly opened with brightness like the sun that wasn't out yet. "Wow Hinata this is awesome, it works immediately. It has a funny taste but the results it gives out weighs that by a million." Said Naruto in astonishment.
Sasuke seeing his reaction followed suit and popped it into his mouth. His eyes widen feeling a rush of alertness rush through his body like he drunk several cups of coffee. "Yea i see what you mean loser it is great. What is it by the way?" Asked Sasuke. Hinata blushing from all the praise answered quietly "T-thank you, and it's c-called Shiso."stumbled out a red faced Hinata.
"So you garden also Hinata that sounds fun I…" Naruto and Hinata proceed to have a conversation about gardening and animals. Which Sasuke would put in a little input here and there when ever asked a question, but he mainly decided to listen and stare at his surroundings. He would snicker at Hinata whenever she would blush at something Naruto or himself would say. He actually thought it was a good idea for Hinata to be talking to her crush for so long. He hoped it would help her stuttering and timidness.
Three Hours later
Naruto and Hinata were still talking about something while Sasuke was looking at his surroundings. Sasuke then noticed a crow staring at him from a tree not to far away. Then it suddenly flew off 'That was weird' thought Sasuke. That's when Kakashi appeared in a cloud of smoke. "Hey guys." said Kakashi interrupting Naruto and Hinata conversation. Hinata and Naruto stop talking and looked at Kakashi. "Hey Sensei...wait what took you so long we have literally been here three hours." Said Naruto remembering how long he had been there. "Oh i had to help old lady cross the street she had a lot of bags." Said Kakashi with an eye smile. "That has be the most bullshit story anyone has told me." Said Sasuke entering the conversation.
Kakashi visible eye went from a smile to a frown basically. "You wanna know the real reason i'm late. I don't feel like you guys are top of my property list. Only because you guys all could be sent back to the academy. My respect for you lies on this test i'm going to give." Said Kakashi shocking the three Genin. Naruto then growled "Just tell us the goddamn test because there's no way i'm going back to the academy i belong here i earned my way here just like i will earn your respect Dattebayo!" Yelled Naruto with determination shocking Both Hinata and Sasuke with his fearless attitude. Kakashi eye smiled at him.
"Ok calm down so i can explain the test. Ok i will set an alarm for noon when the test will end. You will have until then to get these two bells from me. Yes i said two. The one who fails to get a bell from me will be sent back to the academy and will be tied to a post to watch the winners eat lunch. Ok now that that's explained do we have any questions?" asked Kakashi which the genin just shook their heads. "Good...the test starts now." Said Kakashi as two of them disappeared into the the trees surrounding the opening.
Kakashi looked at Naruto confused why he didn't try to hide also. Keyword try as he could since exactly where the other two were. Naruto seizing Kakshi up started to run towards him preparing to engage him in taijutsu but stopped when he seen kakashi reach into his ninja pack. He did the same and pulled out a kunai while Kakashi pulled out a orange book and began to read. Shocking all his students. "Umm what are you doing you do know this is fight." Said naruto confused. "I know i just thought i would catch up on some reading while at it." said Kakashi further confusing Naruto
"Umm i'm not holding back i'm coming at you with all i got." said naruto with a little anger at being under estimated. "Actually you appear to be coming at me with nothing but words right now. So if you would just attack so i can get this over and done with that would be nice. " Said Kakashi in a bored tone not looking up from his book. Angering naruto further. "Ahhhh." Naruto screamed while charging Kakashi as fast as he could. Once he cleared he swung a punch aimed to take kakashi head off. Kakashi easily dodge it shocking naruto which immediately turned to anger he swung with his left this time kakashi just dodge again. Naruto growled before launching an all assault on Kakashi fueled with kicks, punches, elbows, knees and even a couple of headbutts.
'His taijutsu is absolutely horrible nun of it is fluent. His feints are predictable. He just throwing limbs at me basically.' Thought Kakashi while jumping over a clumsy leg sweep. "Errrr stop mocking me damn it." Screamed Naruto his frustration clearly showing on his face. "Naruto in a fight you must always keep a level head. Letting emotions like frustration surface will give your enemy the clear advantage. I'm not saying don't have emotions just don't be consumed by them it can be a deadly mistake. " lectured Kakashi while dodging and seemingly reading.
"SHUT UP." roared Naruto sending a kick trying to hit Kakashi in the head. When his foot seemed mere centimeters away from landing Kakashi disappeared. "Huh what?" Naruto questioned before a resounding "smack!" echoed throughout the forest. "Oowwwww." came a painful reply from Naruto. "Be on guard at all times. If you weren't my student your head have been rolling on the floor." said the grey haired man. Naruto growled before starting his ferocious attack again.
This went on for another ten minutes until Kakashi had made his way into Naruto blind spot again. He crouched down putting his hands in a tiger hand sign. 'Oh no he's gonna hurt Naruto kun gotta do something quick." Thought Hinata quickly "Leaf hidden taijutsu a thousand…" he was cut off mid sentence as he had to avoid being hit by four shuriken. As he landed on his feet he noticed an orange and light purple heading towards the forest around. 'I knew i got her for a reason she will definitely pull this team together." Thought Kakashi before starting to read his book.
Meanwhile with Naruto and Hinata. Hinata was dragging Naruto into the forest by his wrist. Once she found a good hiding spot she stopped and ducked behind the tree with small bushes under it. 'This will have to do for now.' thought Hinata to her self.
"Umm Hinata i'm sure we're safe and stop can u let go of my hand please?" Asked Naruto with a smile. Hinata looked down and noticed she did have a firm but gentle grip on his hand. She blushed and quickly released his hand. 'Wow she is cuter than Sakura. Wait what but i dont know whats going on.' thought naruto confusing himself. While his face formed a small blush
"Ummm Hinata why did you help me?" Asked Naruto with a small blush on his face. "W-well i didn't want you to g-get hurt. Were a te…" Hinata stop as her already large eyes widedn. "Huh were a what?" asked Naruto confused why she stopped in the middle of her sentence. "Come on N-naruto-kun we have to find Sasuke." whispered Hinata to Naruto. "Why do we have mmph." Naruto not whispering making Hinata cover his mouth. "Shhhh Naruto-kun we don't want sensei to hear us." whispered Hinata getting a nod from Naruto. She peeked out from the bush to see if kakashi moved which he did not.
"Oh sorry. But why and how are we gonna find sasuke?" asked Naruto quietly this time. "Im g-gonna use my byakugan and w-we need him to pass the test." Said Hinata while turning on her byakugan. She looked around and found him on the whole other side of the training ground in a tree. "He's in a tree on the other side of the training ground." Hinata said while discreetly pointing out the tree and deactivating her Byakugan.
"Oh yea i can smell him now that i know his location." said Naruto after sniffing the air a couple times. Hinata looked at him bewildered and thought of a question to ask him later. "Ok let's go get him Hinata." Whisper shouted Naruto. "W-wait Naruto-kun we have to g-get around Kakashi. I doubt he j-just let us walk by." Said Hinata. "Yea i guess you're right hmmm...ah we can swim around the lake will give us cover to get by." Said Naruto. "T-that's a great idea Naruto-kun." said Hinata. They both then ran to the lake before getting in and swimming by Kakashi.
'Hmm i wonder what there thinking of doing. It must be big for them trying to conceal themselves so hard.' Thought Kakashi trying to figure out what they got planned.
With Naruto and Hinata
"Whew that water was super cold. What you think Hinata?" asked Naruto as he looked over at a shivering Hinata. Hinata just nodded at him as she went to move towards sasuke she felt arms wrap around her from the side. She "epp!" at the contact as it startled her. The hands immediately left her shoulders. She turned with a super red face that dried her hair and face insistently. She saw Naruto who look like he was embracing for the hit that he thought was coming his way.
"Naruto-kun w-what are y-you doing?" Asked Hinata. "Well aren't you gonna hit me?" Said a confused Naruto. "N-no. why would i h-hit you?" Asked Hinata her blush fading away. "Well i thought you were mad at me for trying to warm you up. Most of the time a girl gets mad at me they hit me." Said Naruto while scratching his head. " Naruto-kun i w-wouldn't hit you just b-because i'm mad at y-you." said Hinata with caring eyes and a soft smile. "Thanks Hinata. Are you still cold i could help warm you up." offred Naruto.
"Im o-okay Naruto-kun. W-we should go to Sasuke." Said Hinata walking towards Sasuke location. As she took a little more steps she felt the arms wrap back around her. She looked into Naruto's smiling face. "I could tell you were lying so just enjoy the long hug." Said Naruto with his goofy smile. Causing Hinata face to turn fire truck red she averted her eyes from his blue ones that gave her butterflies and warmed her heart.
Hinata and Naruto Walked like that for five minutes before they reached Sasuke and cut the embrace. When they reached him he was just about to throw a barrage of kunai and shuriken at Kakashi. "Wait Sasuke don't waste your time throwing thoes at him." Said Naruto stopping Sasuke. "What do you want loser?" Demanded Sasuke. Naruto growled before answering. "Well Hinata said she knew how to pass the test but we needed you for it." Replied Naruto. "Ok let's hear it Hinata." Said Sasuke
"Um...Well as y-you all should know that a fresh o-out of the a-academy genin couldn't possibly beat a j-jounin. So the o-only option is t-to work together." Hinata said. "Didn't you hear? there's only two bells the person without a bell is going back to the Academy." Replied Sasuke. "I k-know i think he's doing this as a t-test in a test. Would you sacrifice y-your comrade just to complete a mission. Also are V-village Genin teams work in g-groups of four. One jounin b-being the senesi while the three genin are s-students." Said Hinata make Sasuke and Naruto eyes widen in shock. "Wow Hinata you're really smart. I would have never thought of that on my own." Praised Naruto making Hinata blush.
"Ok i will follow this plan but say this isn't the goal of the test who's going to take the fall for it? I'm definitely not." Said Sasuke. "I w-will. Since i-it was m-my idea." replied Hinata now assuming the worst that her idea was way off and one of them would have to go back to the academy. "No. I will i believe in her idea fully and if she goes back to the academy the village will view the future Hyuga Clan head weak. Besides i'm an orphan no one will care." Said Naruto with a downcast look. "B-but Naruto-kun i w-would care." Hinata Said sad to hear that he thinks no one cares for him.
"Thanks Hinata. It really means alot to me." Said Naruto with down cast look. 'I care about him more than he thinks. I watched him over come anything in front of him. He gave me my strength getting up after everything whether it be a cut or a lonely birthday where he would just sit in his room and cry all day and put on fake smile for the Hokage when he came by. I left him gifts on his door step. Then run off because i was scared. His smile after receiving it the only gift he got every year would lighten up my world. I promise you Naruto-kun i will tell you how much i care about you one day.' Thought Hinata while looking at the ground.
"Umm so what's the plan on taking out Kakashi then?" Said Sasuke Not really wanting to interfere in their little moment. He jump out the tree and landed next to Naruto. "Um...i d-don't h-have any ideas. I j-just know w-we have to w-work together." Said Hinata thinking of a plan. "Me neither. How about you loser." Said Sasuke looking over to Naruto who chuckled. "I always have a plan dattebayo. I pulled more pranks then all are ages multiply together." Said Naruto with a smirk. "This is not one of your stupid pranks Naruto. This a battle and no half assed plan is gonna get us those bells." Said Sasuke aggressively.
"I know this is a battle and my pranks are not halved ass i spent months coming up with some of those. Do either of you know a jutsu that could do some damage?" asked Naruto. "Yea me i know a fire style jutsu what for thoe?" Naruto smirked before explaining his plan to both of them.
11:30 A.M. In training ground 7
"What exactly are we waiting for again?" Asked Sasuke. "Until he begins to think we gave up." replied Naruto. "You sure that's going to happen? I mean he's sat like that for the past...wait he just moved should we get in position?" Asked Sasuke. "Yea. Hinata ready?" asked Naruto. She Nodded.
Meanwhile with Kakashi.
'Man it's been almost 4 hours and they haven't tried to attack me at all this is weird. I might have thought Hinata would have been scared, but Naruto and Sasuke. I thought they would have tried to have my head on a platter by now.'Thought Kakashi before reading two more lines. 'I guess they really did give up. I really thought this team would make it far together.' Kakashi signed as that thought flew through his head.
Kakashi pretty sure they gave up decide to just wait till 12:00 to tell them they failed as two of them didn't even attempt to fight him. He got up and stretched to work out the stiffness in his muscles. As he got up he heard four "wizing" sounds coming at him from behind. 'Hmm i guess i was wrong. Lets see what who ever this is got for me.' Pondered Kakashi as he turned around quickly and put his book into his ninja pack. Immediately after he turned around he ducked the kunai that was lined in a row. As they were flying over his head the two out side ones turned into Naruto. 'So he changed his clones into kunai smart.' Kakashi thought as he grabbed the two kicks that was aimed at his head. After he had them in his grasp he slung the two together making them dispel.
As the smoke was still he saw a small feminine fist come through the smoke and try to break his nose. He quickly side stepped to the right, but had to spin around Naruto's open palm strike to his side . ' So hinata used the smoke from the displing clones to cover her punch. And Naruto was there to catch me off guard.' Thought Kakashi jumping back to gain some space.
As he landed the Immediately ran to close the space. They began sending a barrage of kicks and punches at him. Kakashi never striked back just dodge and parry. He analyzed there fighting style. 'Hmm they don't fight like they been fighting as a team for very long, but i can tell they're trying to fight in sync. Wait Naruto Is really using a lot of palm strikes and fingers. That's it! Hinata and Naruto henge to throw me off there fighting style. Guess i better unhinge them to show that they been figured out.' thought Kakashi while still dodging and analyzing with his uncovered eye. Kakashi then prepared to hit them but they moved away.
He looked confused for a split second before dodging quickly to the right as a storm of kunai and shuriken replaced where he was standing. 'Whew that was close. So he has clones in the tree line gotta watch out for that.' he thought as he mentally wipe his brow. "Well its plan B time hinata." said the henged Naruto. She nodded in response before she released her henge. Naruto followed suit then held up the number two with his fingers to what kakashi presumed to be his clone.
Naruto then did the familiar hand sign for shadow clone jutsu. A huge cloud of smoke appeared on the training field. When it cleared up it was an army of Naruto's and Hinata's every where. "Alright it's time to kick your ass. Go!" the small army began to charge towards Kakashi. Kakashi took out one Kunai and began to cut the Naruto and hinata clones down one by one. Avoiding fatal spots to make sure he didn't kill the real ones.
After cutting down about fifty or so Kakashi noticed there was two standing in the way back watching the fight.'Hmm so they decided to let the clones do the work while sitting back to avoid injury.' Kakashi then cut down a couple more before dashing through the crowded till he got solitary Naruto and Hinata. Once he was in front of them he raised his fist at the Hinata one to try and dispel the clones. But before he could strike he felt something latch on to his feet. It was a Naruto and Hinata clone that were hidden under ground. The other two grabbed his arms to prevent him from escaping. "NOW SASUKE!" Yelled The clone on kakashi right leg.
Soon after that was said Sasuke jump out from the tree line. 'So Sasuke was in the trees hmmm ig that means they passed they all work together now lets see what he's gonna do.' Pondered Kakashi. While kakashi was thinking that Sasuke began running through a set of quick hand seals. "Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu." Yelled Sasuke as he sucked in the air for it the timer went off. Sasuke cancelled the jutsu.
"Well i guess time's up for the test. Ummm Naruto can you let me go?" Asked Kakashi. Then all the clones dispersed showing Naruto and Hinata in the middle of training ground once the smoke cleared. "We were so close to getting those bells just 30 more seconds dattebayo!" Said Naruto looking at the ground. "Naruto don't sweat it…" Kakashi began to explain something but was cut off by Naruto. "Don't sweat it! You don't understand how i'm not gonna sweat it? I just gave the whole village the proof they needed to say they was right i would never be a Ninja. I will never be respected i will be nothing to everybody but a failure, a loser, a damn dead last!" Snapped Naruto before tears spilled from his eyes and streams dripping down his face into the dirt.
Hinata seeing this wrapped her arms around his shoulders and placed him a hug a first for Naruto. "Naruto-kun i r-respect you. I dont a-and never have thought of y-you as any of those t-things." Said Hinata comforting him. Sasuke seeing the scene from where he was standing felt pity and guilt. He always called Naruto loser and idiot almost from the time he met the blond boy. He never knew why he did it just came as everyone did it. It just became natural. He didn't think it had this kind of effect on him.
Kakashi looked at the ground thoughts running through his head 'I should have taken you in Naruto it's just me being in the anbu i wasn't home a lot and The hokage assured me you would be ok by yourself. I'm sorry Minato sensei i'm just as guilty as the villagers. I assure you from this point on i will be more involved in his life.' Thought Kakashi to himself before walking over to where Naruto and Hinata was standing. He placed his hand on Naruto's shoulder the boy looked at him with tearty eyes. "Actually Naruto i was saying don't sweat it because you passed the test." said Kakashi with an eye smile. Naruto, Hinata, and Sasuke looked at Kakashi confused. "How?" asked Sasuke.
" Well i will discuss the real test after we eat lunch i brung sushi rice and dumplings in bento boxes for everyone." Said Kakashi making every ones stomach growl miserably. Sasuke looked away to hide his blush. Naruto blushed and chuckled. Hinata just blushed and looked at the ground. "Now if you two lovebirds are done cuddling we can eat." Said Kakashi said teasing the two preteens. Naruto and Hinata looked down then realized that Naruto was still in hinata's gentle embrace. They both jumped away from each other. Hinata was blushing hard while looking at the ground and poking her index fingers together.
Kakashi and Sasuke laughed at there blushing faces. Meanwhile both Hinata and Naruto was deep in there thoughts. 'I c-cant b-believe i held h-him that l-long. I-it just felt s-so natural.' HInata pondered stuttering in her thoughts. 'She comforted me i never had that, not even from the old man after i was beat by the villagers.' thought naruto with butterflies in his stomach. They walked their way to the food where three post were. "Well now dig in." They all began to eat Naruto and Sasuke with no table manners. Hinata did her best to use her table manners but being as hungry as she was they were barely any she knew her father would be very disappointed if he saw this. Kakashi didn't eat just watched his cute little Genin eat with an eye smile.
Once they were done eating which was only like five minutes due to them almost literally inhaling the food. "Now that you are done eating i wanna show you something." Said. Kakashi signaling the genin to follow him. Which they did they walked over to a memorial stone. "This stone has some of the bravest, strongest, and wisest ninja i ever know on here. It has three of my best friend on here also. One of those friends taught me important lesson just before he died in front of me. Those who abandon a mission is scum those who abandon their comrades is worst than scum. Your test was over team work a ninja can not do everything on there own that was something i had to learn the hard way at the price of my friend." Said Kakashi while a tear rolled down from his exposed eye to his cheek on to his mask at remembering that day like yesterday.
"Now that you three are my students i will be on time to all of our team meetings and missions and I expect you all to be." He said with a stern look. Causing the three preteens to nod with understandings. "Now i'm going to explain something. From here on it will only get harder being a ninja i will do my best at preparing you for this life, but there are only something you will be able to learn from experience.I promise i will help you along the way of your ninja life until i will not be able to. Another thing is you all have to take every mission serious weather it be painting houses or assassination that means no more pranks. I'm not saying to always be serious but take a mission serious." Lectured Kakashi having the attention of all his students.
"Anything else i will talk to you about will be talked about when it's needed. So let's talk about the performance on the test." said Kakashi making the students excited to see how they performed. "Naruto your taijutsu is pretty bad you're just flinging your limbs you don't punch or kick correct. Now good news is you have a lot of chakra and your clones are a very valuable tool if you use it correctly." said Kakashi. "As for you Hinata your chakra control is pretty good and your taijutsu is pretty well off also bad news is you hesitate. You can not hesitate at all on the battlefield you will be killed doing that." Hinata Nodded in understanding. "Sasuke i didn't really have a chance to see what you can do but i can say that jutsu you were about to do is a nice one." Said Kakashi.
"Now i know it was Hinata that brung you three together, but who made the plan to get the bells. Was it you Sasuke?" Asked Kakashi. Sasuke looked away. "How About you Hinata?" Asked kakashi again. Hinata Shook her head and pointed at Naruto. "It was Naruto-kun Kakashi sensei." said Hinata "Oh really. Is that true Naruto." kakashi said. "Dattebayo it was me that came up with that amazing kick ass plan. But i couldn't have did it without Sasuke and Hinata-chan." Said Naruto. 'He said Hinata-chan' was Hinata last thoughts before passing out. "Hinata-chan? Hinata are you ok." Said a panicked Naruto while shaking an unconscious hinata who was red faced and said "he said chan" ever so often.
