'So. Kyu-chan,how long do you think it will take Kakashi sensei to come today'

"My guess is the usual, two hours, maybe a bit more considering your 'play' this morning" Kyuubi said with a smirk on her lips. "How 'bout a game of chess Naru-kun"

'aww but you always win anyways' he said in a whinny voice.

"Think of it as practice and plus would you rather listen to Sakura", at this point kyuubi was scowling just at the thought of her "ran on and on and on about her precious Sasuke-kun"

"I'll be the white pieces"

Three hours later

"Check mate, you did much better than usual Naru-kun, that's half an hour longer than normal" Kyuubi said with a small smile watching her naru-kun get upset about losing...again.

"Maybe but you still beat me, and bad too, I could only take one of your pawns" Naruto said pouting childishly.

"Oh look who's here"

POOF

"YOUR LATE" the pink haired brat and Naruto said together.

"well you see" and Kakashi began on his long explanation, "I was walking here to come on time and then I saw this fish and it was drowning in a lake so I saved it and when I got it out of the pond I tried to find someone to help but no one would come to help so I had to perform cpr and fortunately he made it so then now I'm here"

Sasuke, Sakura and Naruto all sweat dropped at his worst excuse ever.

'And he could of just told them that there where problems with ANBU or something' Naruto thought.

Inside his head Kyuubi was rolling around crying with laughter from Kakashi's newest excuse. "At least it's original"

"Well team there's been some bad news, because of a sudden lack of anbu" at this Naruto smirked though he quickly dropped it when he saw Sasuke glance his way. "Now all the jounins must do missions so I'll have to cancel training today although you can spar with each other if you want", and with that he was gone.

"Hey Sakura-chan, will you go on a date with me" Naruto said much louder that necessary and wincing internally at his voice.

"No Naruto! Now shut up your annoying...Sasuke-kuuuuuuuun will you go on a date with me?"

"And she said I was annoying. This is so ironic it's funny" Naruto said under his breath. He turned around to face: 1) a curious Sasuke

2) a furious Sakura, ready to kill

"What did you say Naruto!" Sakura yelled. Right now Sasuke had a look of pity on his face, wondering what kind of torture Sakura was going to do to Naruto but he was even more curious as to why he called someone he had a crush on annoying.

"Well you see I said.. um ..I said" 'Kyu-chan HELP ME!'

"Naru-kun, it's not like I like to watch you struggle...Okay, yeah, I do. It makes you look cute, kinda like a lost puppy" A soft giggling noise could be heard in the back of Naruto's mind

'KYU-CHAN'

"you see Sakura, I said...I'm hungry, yeah that's it I said I was hungry and wanted some ramen. I'll go get some now, Bye." The he ran off into the village leaving a trail of dust behind him.

'The dobe is acting weirder than usual'
