A/N: Hello everybody, sorry it took so long to get the chappie up, but I suffered from a severe case of writer's block and it seemed that every time I tried to type I was very rudely interrupted … which kinda sucks for you guys, yeah. Okay, this is the revised version from the one that kakashiindrag did, I had to fix her mistakes, so enjoy .!

Nani stared unfazed at the small blade of grass. She reached out with her left hand and poked at it, once, twice, and again. Rosuto blinked. Her head cocked at the sound to the right, and then to the left.

"What the crap?!"

"Huh?"

"What are you doing, poking at the grass?!"

"Oh ..." Nani looked at her friend, then the grass, then Rosuto again. "Uh ... well ... I like its color. It's pretty. It's nice. It's soft. It shines with the reflecting light of the sun. And I wonder what note it makes ..."

The ANBU slapped her forehead. "Ugh ... why am I friends with you again? Please remind me."

"Remember? It was a dark and stormy night," she began in a theatrically creepy voice. "You were in a tree, trying to be moody. But I wouldn't let you." Her voice lost the dramatics to a higher pitch happy tone of a cartoon character and slowly it got serious again, "So I threw a shoe at you. It was a bunny slipper. I didn't even own one and still don't, it was from the guy I beat up three nights previously. He played dirty pool ... seriously; his swimming pool was really dirty -"

"AAH! STOP! I GET IT ALREADY! Geez, do you always have to tell your stories like a movie-announcer guy?" Rosuto cried in frustration. "Besides, that doesn't even make sense! He played dirty pool and his swimming pool was dirty?! WTF!?"

Naruto merely looked on in wonder as the two girls carried on. They had reached the training ground a few minutes ago, and almost immediately, Nani had ducked down to stare at the grass, which led to this interesting conversation ... for lack of a better word.

"Girls are so weird ..." he muttered to himself. His hands stuck into his black-striped orange pants, which caused them to slip exposing his green patterned boxers. His spiky blonde hair, which he tussled with his right hand, calloused from the many years of hand-to-hand combat, hand signs, and the cool smooth surfaces that belonged to shuriken and kunai. He glanced over to Kakashi; he gave him an unnoticed nod about the two bickering though they both understood this wasn't going to get far.

"HEY! I HEARD THAT!" Rosuto shouted, shaking her fist at him. Her blood began to pound in her ears and her raging breath hindered her senses as she tried to quell it.

"Actually, Ro-chan, he's got a point." Kakashi popped up behind her and said. He had quickly jumped from his spot in the end of the path near a large full tree whose leaves danced mystically in the spring breeze.

"GRR! WHO ASKED YOU?!"

"Nobody."

"THEN WHY THE HELL ARE YOU SAYING ANYTHING?!?"

"OOH! A dandelion!" Nani exclaimed gleefully as she trotted over to a small, fluffy white flower. Now the two male shinobi looked desperately at the heaven for some kind of reason for such cruel punishment as to suffer this.

"WHAT THE HELL!?" Rosuto yelled at her. "WHY DO YOU HAVE TO BE SO RANDOM IN THE MIDDLE OF MY ARGUEMENT!? YOU ALWAYS DO THIS!!"

Kakashi and Naruto watched as the kunoichi interacted, wondering what the next turn was.

"But I like dandelions! They're so fuzzy! And white is one of my favorite colors! And so is green! It has both!"

Rosuto smacked her forehead again leaving a slight red mark for a second. "Why do I even bother?!"

"I don't know, but perhaps you should stop if it drives you so crazy." Nani replied calmly her face stoic for a second, then in a flash a smile reappeared on her.

"Anyway ..." Kakashi began; his one uncovered eye beamed his slight amusement and annoyance. "We should probably start training now ..."

Naruto whipped around to face him, abandoning the entertainment that the girls behind him provided.

"OOH OOH OOH! WHAT ARE WE GONNA DO FIRST?!" he asked, repeatedly jumping up and down.

"Taijutsu." Kakashi pulled out his Icha Icha Paradise. "Just like in your survival test. Let's see if you do any better this time." the sensei drawled out lazily.

"Oh ... are we starting now?" Nani asked, clueless of the situation.

"No, Nani, he just said that we were gonna start two minutes ago to exercise his tongue. OF COURSE WE'RE STARTING, DUH!" Rosuto whacked her friend in the back of the head.

"Okay ... just come at me whenever." Kakashi stated.

"ALRIGHT! On guard, sensei!!" Naruto shouted at the silver-haired jounin, leaping at him with an energetic ferocity.

Nani took advantage of Naruto's distraction and slowly crept in an inching sort of fashion away, off somewhere to make preparations.

Rosuto just stood there and decided to listen to Naruto getting his butt kicked. Then she thought of something. "Hey, Nani! Wait up!"

"WHAT?!" the rogue-nin whirled around to face her. "CAN'T YOU SEE I'M TRYING TO SNEAK OFF?!"

"Yeah I can NOT see, now let me borrow an eye. I wanna watch this."

"Uh ... NO. That justu hurts like hell! My body isn't for your own personal usage ... Gaw! That sounded so wrong" Nani the continued sneaking

"Fine, whatever. I'll just have to settle for echolocation, then. Can't make this simple, can you?" Rosuto shook her head in resignation, and with speed that was hard for the eye to follow, she formed the hand sings for her specialty jutsu.

"Kinmotsu Bijon Ne!" (1) she declared, her hands resting in the 'dragon' position, and she started to hum. The note was classified as infrasound, too low for the human ear to hear - well, any human but her, that is. The jutsu had also fully activated her hearing abilities, and a rush of sound came to her suddenly. The frequency she was projecting vibrated through her vocal cords and spread throughout the clearing, the sound reflected and absorbed at different rates and returning to her ears. In her mind, she could "see" it: the trees, the grass, the river and the small bridge that spanned it, as well as her companions. For nearly a minute, she held the note, and she could picture her surroundings clearly from the sound waves that they reflected. She had chosen to use infrasound in order to keep from throwing off the other's fight, as well as to conceal her own location in case she decided to hide. But her "vision" suddenly diminished as she took a breath. That was the only major drawback to this jutsu - it all depended on her breathing. If she stopped humming, the refraction of sound would stop. And in the midst of battle, her heart rate would increase, which meant that she would have to breathe more often and the intervals of detailed sonar became shorter, that could be deadly. She would usually avoid using this jutsu unless absolutely necessary, but she had to get all the details possible of this fight.

Naruto flipped over twisting his body ending in a slight roundhouse kick, dodged a right-handed hook from his sensei. Seeing a perfect chance to slightly startle the man by changing his order of movements he folded his hands in the proper hand sign and bellowed in his high, rough voice, "Kage bunshin no jutsu!" another of his limbs tried to double kick Kakashi in the lower abdomen, whom simply without even glancing from his Icha Icha Paradise blocked the rapid inhumanely fast kick. Four of his clones flipped over and over spinning is tactical surround. Checking off all the exits Kakashi might run off to Naruto planned his next move he brought his hands together his face stern with resolve. "Bunshin Taiatari!"

Kakashi looked up at the numerous dive bombing clones. The frown upon his face dropped an inch or so. His eye brow twitched and he took off in a burst speed, trying to dodge. The only thought that passed through his mind was ... "Oh Shit! This is going to hurt,"

1) Kinmotsu bijon ne - forbidden sound vision. Why forbidden, you ask? Because of anyone else tried to do it, they'd blow out their eardrums and would never have a decent sense of balance again. Co-author kakashiindrag made it up (Nani, I salute you!).
