Hello once more readers. After a rather informative review, I've decided to change a few things... not about characters or whatever... but you'll see. Anyway, this is chapter 6, so read.
in the previous chapter, Celeres fought Neji, and took him down with one move, thus ending the first round of the choosing of the new Hokage, Leaving Sakura, Lee, Kakashi, Celeres, and Shikamaru to fight the next round. In the next round, it was decided that Celeres was to fight Lee, Shikamaru was to fight Kakashi, and Sakura was to not fight. Celeres fought Lee, and took him out with one move... sorta. Now, Shikamaru and Kakashi are going to fight.
Shikamaru: I don't believe I can win this fight, but I suppose it can't hurt to try, right?
Kakashi: You're right.
Jiraiya: Alright, Begin!
Kakashi moves his headband from over his eye.
Shikamaru: Oh no, not the Sharingan! I surrender, something like that is not something I'm willing to go up against it.
Kakashi: Well, if you feel that way...
Jiraiya: Kakashi wins!
Sakura: huh... that's not like Shikamaru. Normally, he would go head on, and fight anyone, regardless of how much stronger than him they were. Why would he...
Shikamaru: Because, my jutsu is not something I'm willing to share with the world, and the Sharingan can copy jutsu.
Sakura: Oh, I see. That makes sense.
Jiraiya: We will rest for one day before beginning the next round, where Celeres and Sakura will fight.
Celeres: Hmph, whatever.
Everybody leaves. Celeres is walking home, when he is confronted by Guy.
Guy:That jutsu you used against Lee, where did you learn that from? I've never seen a jutsu that was even close to that.
Celeres: Sorry, I cannot tell you that.
Guy: Why not?
Celeres: Because, if I told you, then the secret on how to beat it would be known to the world, and that is not something I am about to let happen.
Guy: I see, well, let's see it again.
Celeres: Errrrr... uhhh... I gotta go.
Celeres runs off too fast for Guy to catch up.
Guy: Hmmm... is he one of those people?
Guy runs off to find Jiraiya. He finds him at the women's bathing room, peeking at them.
Guy: Jiraiya, I think I know why Celeres is able to use jutsu seemingly specifically designed for his opponent. It was rumored that there was a rare chance that a ninja may have a special power. The ability to make up jutsu on the spot. The only downside to this power was the jutsu they make up may only be used once. I'm thinking Celeres may have this power.
Jiraiya: I also have heard rumor, but how can we be sure that he has this power?
Guy: Remember that jutsu he used on Lee? The elemental armor... He got nervous when I asked him to show me it again. Why would he be nervous if he was able to show it to me again? The only possibility is he can't use it again.
Jiraiya:I see... we'll have to monitor this boy, to see if your assumptionsare true.
Guy: Who is going to watch over him?
Jiraiya: I'm going to place Neji on watch duty over himThat Byakugan of his allows him to see a mile radius of his position. Even Celeres can't see a mile away from himself. Guy, go tell Neji his new mission.
Guy: I shall.
Guy goes away.
Jiraiya: Damn you Guy, you made the girls go away.
In a part of town only known to Naruto.
Naruto: I don't believe it. Bushy Brow took me down without even faltering, and then that Celeres guy comes along and takes him out without even so much as blinking. I even heard that Celeres took Sasuke down with one attack. How can I become Hokage with this guy around? It just doesn't make sense. I heard he had worse grades in class than me, so how is it he's more powerful than I am? DAMN! This isn't fair. Maybe I need to stop slacking... or maybe I need to apply my training better. I mean, Kakashi told me I've gotten 624 years of training, but I didn't use it. I got cocky, and it cost me. I'll start training to my fullest tomorrow.
Naruto heads home, with thoughts of training to his fullest the next day. Meanwhile, Celeres is at home, nervous about his encounter with Guy.
Celeres: Oh no, I think Guy figured out my secret. If he shares it with Kakashi or Sakura, I may not win. I even lied to him about my strength. I can barely lift 600 pounds with one hand, let alone my earlobes. I even made up random shit hoping he'd believe me. That story about the jutsu was a complete crock of crap. I'm just glad they called that meeting before my training began, otherwise I would have made a fool of myself. At least my special power is enough to keep me looking like a total bad ass. Let's just hope that things don't turn out too bad for me.
That's the end of chapter 6. Interesting plot twist, eh? Who woulda guessed this little wiz kid wasn't as wizzy as we all thought? Well, read and review, and keep in mind, don't judge a book by it's cover. Unless it's called Moby Dick, don't worry about the cover, it's a good book.
