Chapter 5: The Unexpected Something

Kakashi got up about to wake his students from their slumber. When he was about to knock on Sakura's and Naruto's door, Sakura had opened it. She looked horrible. Bags were under her eyes and her hair was sticking up everywhere.

"Ah, Sakura...you are already awake?" Kakashi asked.

"More like I never got to sleep! Naruto was so annoying and he snored all night! I can't get any sleep with him sensei! Can I please sleep with Sasuke-kun?" begged a sleep deprived Sakura.

"That reminds me, I have to wake the two...but knowing them, they are probably already awake."

Sasuke and Kameko were both asleep on the floor. Sasuke had fallen off the bed and is now, unconsciously, holding Kameko in his arms. Kameko, who is also still asleep, shifted to a position where she was facing Sasuke.

Simultaneously, the two opened their eyes to see each other in each other's arms. Immediately they untangled themselves and backed off to separate sides of the room. They weren't making eye contact at all. Kameko looked over to Sasuke to see that he was blushing.

Sasuke wondered why he was blushing. All he did was roll onto the floor. Nothing happened. Then why was he feeling that way? Sasuke questioned himself, but found no answer. Sasuke was calming himself down, and then he looked at Kameko, who quickly turned her head when he did. Now she was blushing a light pink.

Kameko's face was hot. She inwardly cursed herself for feeling this way, but she wondered what she was feeling. She wondered why he was blushing. They were supposed to be opponents.

Kameko took in a deep breath and exhaled slowly. Sasuke closed his eyes and started to mutter something under his breath.

"What?" questioned Kameko.

"Nothing." Said Sasuke.

Kameko fell silent. "About that...you know on the floor..."

At that moment Kakashi sensei entered in with Sakura behind him. "Hm? Am I interrupting something?" He asked while looking at his student's flushed faces.

Kameko turned to glare at her sensei. Kakashi raised both of his hands in the air as if he was surrendering. Sakura who was looking at them glared at Kameko. Thinking that she will steal Sasuke from her.

Kameko rolled her eyes. "No. Now all of you get out so I can change."

Kakashi and Sakura quickly left, as well as Sasuke. But before he did, he turned to Kameko to give himself peace at mind.

"Nothing happened. I rolled onto the floor. That's it." With that said, he shut the door behind him.

"It doesn't feel like nothing..." Kameko muttered under her breath to herself. "Why am I questioning it? Nothing happened...Nothing. Why am I even feeling like this?" Kameko ran her fingers through her hair as a sign of confusement. "He is nothing but a selfish jerk that thinks he's the best."

Kameko sighed and changed. On the other side of the door Sasuke was being endlessly pestered by Sakura.

Then, by miracle, Kameko stepped out. "Your turn." She told Sasuke. Sasuke sprinted into the room. Anything to get away from Sakura's grasp.

Sasuke walked grabbed his bag. When he did this, he saw the covers that were laying on the floor. "She is just an idiotic girl." He muttered to himself.

"Alright, the rigorous training you will be doing will put your life on the line." Said Kakashi.

The five were in the woods.

"What will we be doing? Huh Kakashi sensei?" asked the hyperactive blonde.

"Climb a tree!" Everyone around him sweat dropped. "You won't be climbing it like you would regularly do. This will be so that you learn how to control your chakra. You will not use your hands."

"Then how will we climb it?" asked Sakura.

"Watch." Kakashi focused his chakra to the bottom of his feet and started to walk up the tree. The four genin stared in amazement.

Kakashi grinned at them. "Now you try. Gather your chakra at your feet and attach yourself to the trunk." Kakashi threw four kunais. "Use these to mark how high you climbed. Now since this is your first time, you won't be able to just simply walk. So, I suggest you get a running start."

The four nodded their heads and concentrated chakra to their feet. Then sprinted towards their own tree.

Naruto immediately fell after about two steps. Sasuke had about ten. Sakura went very high on her first try. She was resting on a tree branch. Kameko also went very high. She too was sitting on a branch.

"Hey, this is easy!" boasted Kameko.

"I thought it would be a little harder. How about you Kameko?" said Sakura, boasting alongside Kameko.

"Agreed." Kameko nodded her head. Naruto looked at them with amazement. Sasuke cursed himself for not having good control.

"Well," started Kakashi, "It looks like that the girls in this team have the best chakra control."

Sasuke and Naruto were angered by this. They ran to their tree to try again. They got a little higher but not enough for satisfactory. All four genin continued to climb.

Everyone started to pant. The training was taking it's toll on them. Sakura sat down deciding that she did enough. She closed her eyes preparing to rest when Naruto came up to her.

"Hey Sakura. Can you give me some tips?"

Sakura looked at Naruto. She inwardly thought that he would give up. She also hoped that Sasuke would ask her for some tips. She looked passed Naruto and looked at Sasuke. Sasuke stood up and was walking, not towards her but Kameko. She glared at the other girl. She will not let her steal her precious Sasuke-kun.

Sakura gave a tip to Naruto and continued to watch Sasuke.

"Kameko." Kameko was resting against her tree. She opened her eyes to see Sasuke.

"What?"

Sasuke crouched down and faced her. His eye started to twitch. This was not easy for him. "Do you have any tips on this?" Kameko froze. Why is he so close and why is he asking me for advice? She thought. Kameko could feel her face getting warm. Why am I like this? Shake it off Kameko. Play it cool, you are thinking too much...

"The great Uchiha is asking for help?" she said smirking.

Sasuke regretted he ever asked. "Never mind." Said Sasuke standing up with a grim face.

Kameko sighed and closed her eyes. Sakura who watched the whole thing clenched her fists. She wanted Sasuke-kun to notice her, not Kameko.

They continued to train until the day was up. By the end everyone was dead beat. They walked home from training.

Tazuna's daughter welcomed them home. "Dinner is ready." She walked to the table and sat down.

"There is something I want to discuss." said Kakashi. His subordinates looked at him in curiosity. "Zabuza may still be alive." Everyone dropped their bowls. Kakashi explained how that hunter-nin's are supposed to dispose of the body on the spot. He also told his theory of how that hunter-nin might be working with Zabuza.

"So that's why you have us training?" questioned Kameko. Kakashi nodded.

Sasuke and Naruto continued to eat. They ate at rapid speed. "More!" they both screamed. Kameko was annoyed by this.

"You two should stop. There is no point in eating if you are going to throw it back up."

"I have to eat. I need strength." Said Sasuke while staring at Naruto.

"And I have to eat more than him!" challenged Naruto. Naruto returned Sasuke's stare with a glare. A wave of electricity was visibly flowing from the two pairs of eyes.

Kameko was really annoyed now, she didn't like it when people wasted food. "Give me a break. Not only are you wasting your energy scarfing it down, but your wasting the food that she (pointing at Tazuna's daughter) had made. Next time, if your going to do what you guys are doing, make your own damn food! " Kameko said hastily, and in one breath. She got up, took a deep breath, exhaled and then headed towards her room.

Both Naruto and Sasuke stared at Kameko and at the same time they dropped their bowls.

"Hey Kameko wait," Kameko turned around to listen to her sensei. "Tomorrow you, Sakura and I will watch Tazuna as he works." Kakashi faced the other two genin. "Naruto, Sasuke, you will continue to train." Kakashi looked at his team. They nodded and finished up at the table. When they were all done, they went to their rooms.

Sasuke entered his room to find Kameko laid out on the bed. "Hey dobe, get off my bed."

Kameko sat up and glared at Sasuke. "Training today was hard. I want to sleep on the bed tonight. Also, this way, you can't use the excuse that you fell off the bed."

"That wasn't an excuse! I fell off. That's it." Sasuke shouted. His nose flared in anger as he narrowed his eyes. Kameko raised her hands in front of her as a gesture of surrender.

"Okay, okay...take a chill pill ducky butt. You're stressed, I can see that." Sasuke glared at her. Kameko could feel the glare burning through her skin.

"Touchy, touchy...I never knew emo's were so...emotional." Kameko got off the bed and walked towards the window. She slowly slid it open, letting the cool night breeze in. Sasuke was still glaring at his roommate. "If you keep staring at me like that I'm going to think that you are using anger as an excuse to look at me." At this Sasuke quickly looked away.

Was he only using it as an excuse? After what happened in the morning he couldn't really tell, but then again NOTHING happened. Sasuke decided to ignore what he was thinking and got under his covers to sleep. He was tired from the training. Sasuke closed his eyes. Then he heard the bed creak. He turned around to see Kameko laying on the other side of the bed.

"What are you doing?"

"Sleeping. What else? Geez Louise...don't tell me that Naruto is rubbing off on you."

Sasuke snorted like a bull."I meant what are you doing in the bed!?"

"Again with the angry emotion! What, are you PMS'in or something?" Kameko sighed. "I said that I want to sleep on the bed today. I can't always sleep on the floor."

"Hn." Retorted Sasuke. "Don't do anything."

"Like I want to. And besides, weren't you the one holding me?"

"You probably liked it and you you're probably just another fan girl." Sasuke turned around and closed his eyes. Kameko was furious by the last comment.

"Don't confuse me with Sakura and don't be pissy because I'm the only girl who isn't obsessive over you. I would die before I become on of your fan girls. By what happened this morning, I'd say that you are one of my fan boys." Kameko said huffing. She quickly turned around and faced the window.

"Ya right."

"Go to sleep. You can rest easy because if someone attacks us I won't let them kill you. Just like Kakashi-sensei, I won't let anyone on my team die. Even if the person I'm saving is going to get his butt whooped in the battle that we are going to have after this mission. So don't worry, sleep happily. Oh wait, you can't be happy because you are too busy being emo." Kameko stuck her tongue out childishly.

"We'll see." Was all Sasuke replied. After a few moments of no comeback, Kameko decided that she won and that he went to sleep. Kameko closed her eyes and then drifted into sleep.

In the middle of the night Kameko was awakened by a noise. She quickly got out of bed and went to the window to see what was going on. She spotted Naruto and decided to question him.

"Hey Naruto!" She said at a volume that was just enough so Naruto could hear.

"Ah! Kameko-Chan!" The hyperactive blonde waved his hand.

"What are you doing?" she asked.

"I'm just going to train some more."

"Oh, your very persistent. Keep up the good work. Make sure you are back and well rested enough to help guard Tazuna tomorrow!"

"I will! Dattebayo!!" Naruto gave Kameko a thumbs up.

Kameko went back to bed.

The next Sasuke and Naruto trained all day. At the bridge no one attacked. They went home to find that Sasuke and Naruto has not come home yet.

"Where are they?" questioned Sakura. "Naruto I can understand, but Sasuke too?"

Then walked in Sasuke supporting Naruto.

"Awww..." said Kameko grinning. "See, I knew it, Sasuke, I knew that you are..."

"Shut up." interrupted Sasuke. Kameko smirked. Sakura was confused, what did Kameko know about Sasuke that she doesn't?

"You are all dirty and worn out. What happened?" said Tazuna.

"We, both of us, made it to the top." Naruto said grinning.

"Good. Tomorrow, you both will help protect Tazuna."

"Yatta!" Naruto screamed while jumping up. He bumped into Sasuke and both of them hit the ground.

"You...moron...get off of me." said Sasuke as he pushed Naruto off. Everyone laughed.

The next day everyone was up. Except Naruto, who happened to be snoring loudly while having a snot bubble go in and out of his nose. Sakura looked at him in disgust.

"Naruto! Get up!" yelled Sakura.

"Maybe we should let him rest." Kameko said. The rest of her team raised their eyebrow to question her comment. Kameko sighed. "He was training all night. So, he might of pushed his limit."

Kakashi nodded in agreement. "He will be of no use if he is still tired. Alright, let's head out!"

Team 7 left with Tazuna and went to the bridge. Sakura constantly glomped Sasuke. He was so annoyed that he forced Kameko to stand between them. Kameko was on the bridge of yelling. She had a massive headache.

"Sakura!" Kameko finally snapped. "Shut up!" Sakura immediately bowed her head and became quiet. The rest of the walk was pretty peaceful. No one had come out and attacked Tazuna also. Upon arriving at the bridge they heard absolutely no construction noise.

"What the? It's too quiet" said Kameko. They all ran to the bridge, and what they found was all of Tazuna's workers dead. They were sprawled all over the floor.

"What happened?" asked Sakura scared of whoever did this.

Then a heavy layer of mist surrounded them.

"Guard Tazuna!" Kakashi commanded. The three surrounded Tazuna. Tazuna became tense.

"This is his Hidden Mist no Jutsu isn't it?" said Kameko.

Out of nowhere, a voice spoke, but no one was to be seen. "Sorry, for the wait Kakashi. I also see that you are still with those brats." Sasuke's body trembled as he held his kunai up to his face. "Poor kid, he's shaking again."

Then a group of Zabuza clones surrounded them. They were all water clones. Kameko and Sasuke knew this.

"Kameko, Sasuke do it." The two attacked all of the clones. A circle of puddles surrounded them.

"Looks you have a couple of rivals." said the real Zabuza to his masked accomplice.

"It does indeed."

"Haku." Zabuza called. The masked boy nodded and charged towards Tazuna. Sasuke stopped him. Haku was throwing kicks and punches, but Sasuke managed to block them.

Kameko turned to her pink haired teammate. "Can you watch Tazuna?" Sakura nodded. Kameko went and joined Sasuke. Kakashi raised his headband so that his sharingan was visible.

"Looks like I'm going to fight you again Zabuza, but this time, you will die."

Zabuza smirked. "Your sharingan won't work on me." He made some hand signs and a thick layer of mist emerged.

Kameko caught up to Haku and Sasuke. Haku was pretty fast. She threw some kunai to distract him. Kameko followed up with a couple of punches and kicks. Haku kicked her, causing her to knock down Sasuke on her way to the ground. Sasuke grunted. Kameko quickly got off.

On the other side of the bridge, Kakashi was struck by Zabuza. He wasn't able to see well, even with his sharingan, due to the heavy fog. Zabuza saw this as an opportunity and appeared behind Sakura, who was in front of Tazuna. She froze. Then, Kakashi appeared behind Zabuza and kicked him away from Tazuna and Sakura. "I figured you would go straight for Tazuna." Kakashi said.

Zabuza jumped and recovered from the kick. "You should give up Kakashi. You are no match. Your sharingan is useless in this mist that I created." Then a pack of dogs appeared and bit Zabuza. Zabuza winced. "What the?"

Kakashi smirked. "Although I can't see, My dogs can smell. So while you were blabbing, my dogs were tracking you." Zabuza grunted. The fog lifted.

Haku looked over to Zabuza's and Kakashi's battle. He knew that Zabuza would need him soon. He then turned to Kameko and Sasuke, who were taking turns on battling Haku. "I am sorry, but I have to end this quickly." Kameko raised an eyebrow. Haku made some hand signs.

"Secret Jutsu: Ice crystal Mirrors." What appeared to be mirrors then surrounded Kameko and Sasuke. Haku then merged into one of the many mirrors. He then appeared in every single one.

"What the?" asked Kameko.

Zabuza had seen the mirrors form. "So, your brats are stronger than they appear if Haku is using that attack." Kakashi looked over to see the strange jutsu. He had never seen that jutsu before. Zabuza snickered. "Your brats are done for. That is a special attack that Haku made on his own." Zabuza attacked Kakashi, but Kakashi managed to block.

In the mirrors Kameko and Sasuke had their guard up. "You can't escape. You will die here." said Haku.

"We'll see about that." retorted Kameko. Haku threw some needles. Kameko and Sasuke blocked them as best as they could, but one struck Kameko in the leg. She let out a small yelp of pain, but that was it. It wasn't a huge wound so she shrugged it off.

Haku threw more needles. They were traveling at great speed and there were so many. They couldn't dodge them. One of them struck Sasuke's hand and his Kunai dropped to the floor. They were defenseless now.

Sakura watched in horror in what was happening to her teammates.

"I'm sorry." she said apologizing to Tazuna.

"I understand." said Tazuna.

Sakura grabbed a kunai and ran towards the mirrors. She threw it. "Take this!"

Haku grabbed it, but at the cost of stopping his attack towards Kameko and Sasuke. They were grateful that the needles stopped momentarily.

"He...caught it." said Sakura. Haku turned towards his opponents to continue with what he was doing. Then out of nowhere a shuriken hit Haku. Causing him to fall out of his mirror.

POOF! everyone stopped momentarily what they were doing to see what happened. It was Naruto, making a big entrance. "I am Naruto Uzamaki and I have arrived!"

Kakashi sweat dropped and sighed. "That idiot, he couldn't have been any more obvious." Zabuza smirked.

"I wonder where that other brat was." Zabuza threw some shuriken at Naruto. Haku then threw needles, causing the weapons to cancel each other out. "Haku! What are you doing?"

"Please, Let me fight him my way." Zabuza nodded and then turned back to Kakashi. Naruto blabbed about how he was going to beat Haku. Sasuke and Kameko saw this as a perfect opportunity to attack while Haku is off guard. they both threw a kunai, but Haku dodged them.

"I haven't forgot about you to. Now, we will fight to the death." Haku slid into his mirrors. Naruto noticed that that was where Kameko and Sasuke was. He decided that he needed to rescue them both. Haku looked towards Naruto. "Don't worry, we'll have our fight next."

Haku threw needles again. Sasuke and Kameko were hit again and again.

Kameko saw Naruto from one of the cracks. Good, she thought, maybe Naruto could destroy this thing from the outside. But how will I get his...

"Sasuke, we need Naruto to.."

"I know, but how..." whispered Sasuke. He was thinking the same thing as Kameko was.

"Hey Sasuke, Kameko-chan." Kameko jumped back from Naruto. Sasuke's eyes bulged. "I snuck in here to rescue you guys. Aren't I the best?" Naruto grinned.

"Ya, the best Idiot! Now we all are stuck in here." Kameko yelled. Naruto looked at her confused. "Grr!"

"Guess I have to destroy these mirrors." said Sasuke. "Fire style: Fireball jutsu." a big ball of fire swirled towards the mirrors. When the fire cleared, the mirrors still stood; unharmed.

"You will need more than the to melt these." said Haku. He then threw more needles, causing all three genin to fly back.

Maybe It's time that I finally try it, my Kekkei Genkai. Kameko closed her eyes and focused. When she opened her eyes her eyes were no longer their normal color. They were a pure black.

Naruto got scared at his ally's new appearance. Sasuke looked at his teammate. "What the?"
