"Begin" before the word was completed all the genin disappeared. "camouflage...check."

Kakashi thought to himself as he hung the three bells on his belt. Suddenly he noticed that one genin

hadn't moved. Kakashi looked up to see a orange jumpsuit wearing Naruto standing in front of him.

"well, well, well what exactly are you trying to pull Mr. Naruto Uzumaki?" Kakashi pondered out loud.

Naruto looked up at him with a grin that covered most of his face.

"I'm not going back to the academy Sensei.. I'm going to get a bell right here right now!" Yelled Naruto

confidently. Kakashi just smirked. Reaching into his weapon pouch his started looking for a certain tool

of his. Naruto noticing the hand going into the pouch instinctively thought kunai.

"Naruto you baka! Get out of there... Kakashi is going to dominate you!" Sakura thought to herself.

Wait why did she care what happened to Naruto? She needed to find Sasuke, so she could protect her

love!

"If you want to protect your love you should be out there with Naruto right now girl!" inner

Sakura announced. Sakura just shook her head and waited to she what Naruto had up his sleeve and,

though not admitting it to herself, prayed that he would be OK.

Naruto was starting to sweat, just being near Kakashi, he could tell how skilled his opponent was. He

waited until Kakashi found his weapon.

"Ah there you are I almost thought I left you at home." sighed Kakashi pulling out a Orange book.

Naruto looked at the title and sweat-dropped Icha Icha Paradise... Of coarse Naruto knew of the

series, since it was used to make his most secret Jutsu, that only worked on perverts. Naruto smirked

as Kakashi began to read.

"So you think that I am not a threat huh?" Kakashi looked up at Naruto

"Well it doesn't matter if I am reading the book or not. Your not getting a bell." replied Kakashi

obviously amused at the blond. Naruto just lowered his head so Kakashi couldn't see his smirk. Then,

putting his poker face on, he raised it again and charged Kakashi. Naruto ran at Kakashi fist rared

back ready to demolish anything it came in contact with. Swinging directly at Kakashi's face. The blond

hoped the punch would connect. Kakashi just ducked underneath the punch.

"Great..." thought Naruto and brought his left leg around in an attempt to knock Kakashi off balance.

Kakashi just blocked it with the hand that wasn't reading the book.

"This kid has a lot of stamina, but he doesn't know what to do with it." Kakashi mentally noted. As

Naruto kept up the assult while Kakashi kept evading, while never once taking his eyes out of his

book. Naruto was getting tired of this cat and mouse game and decided to raise the stakes a little bit.

Crossing his fingers he yelled "Shadow Clone Jutsu!" Five more Narutos appeared around Kakashi.

"So the rumor is true Naruto did learn Shadow Clone Jutsu. Although this puts him at an

advantage...its not enough." with that Kakashi, without taking his eyes off of his book, impaled the

five clones with kunai. Naruto gritted down, as the five clones dispelling in a cloud of smoke.

"Kakashi is good." he thought to himself.

Suddenly he saw the sign, a blinking light coming from the forest directly behind Kakashi. "Perfect..."

Naruto straightened up and charged Kakashi again, only this time throwing kunai before he punched.

Kakashi caught the first and deflected all the remaining with ease. Naruto rushed directly at Kakashi

attempting another punch in the face when Kakashi grabbed his arm and slammed him to the ground

in one fluid motion. Naruto coughed up a little bit of blood and his ribs hurt, but he still had a job to do.

Meanwhile Sakura hadn't moved a muscle. She was fighting with herself. She wanted to go out and

help Naruto. Her body leaned forward as she prepared to jump, but her mind kept her from moving.

"No I got to go find Sasuke first."

"why?"

"I don't know..."

"Obviously Sasuke is not in trouble since Kakashi is fighting Naruto, so why don't you go help him?"

Sakura knew inner Sakura had a point, with a sigh she decided that helping Naruto was the only way

that she could get a bell. Sakura jumped from her hiding spot and charged Kakashi from behind.

Naruto looked up to see Sakura ,just in time, before he saw her Kunai impale Kakashi's chest. His eyes

widened in horror as the blood of his sensei spilled upon his face. "Sa-akura..." was all he could get

out when Kakashi suddenly turned into a log.

"Shit" he heard Sakura mumble before giving him a hand. "we got to hide Naruto before he attacks

come on." Sakura begged as she started to run back to the forest. Noticing Naruto not following, she

turned around. "Naruto come on baka!" she pleaded. Naruto just shook his head.

"Na I'll wait for that coward to come back." Naruto relied as happily as could be.

Sakura was dumbstruck. She was about to return to her cover when suddenly the land in front of her

erupted in an explosion. Kakashi walked out of the dust cloud and he looked pissed.

"So you think you can stab your sensei in the back do you?!" Kakashi yelled at Sakura who started

shivering from the killer intent flowing from Kakashi. "I'll show you what happens when you attack a

Kakashi Hatake." Kakashi was laughing on the inside. He wasn't going to hurt the genin... to bad. He

just wanted to see how they would reacted to intimidation and the only way to do that was to play a

little rough. Kakashi began going through a bunch of hand-signs when he noticed that Naruto had

made his way to Sakura's side. Grabbing Sakura, Naruto sprinted toward the forest where the blinking

light had been. Sakura was not nearly as fast as Naruto, so she was just being dragged behind him.

Sakura felt like her arm was about to get ripped off. "Slow down baka!" was all she could get out

before they reached the forest. Naruto slowed down only slightly and jumped to a nearby tree taking

Sakura with him. Sakura was not happy, not only was she being tossed around like a rag doll, but her

arm was killing her. After this test Naruto would feel her wrath. Kakashi watched the two make their

way to the forest and decided to see what they were up to. Pulling out his orange book he followed at

a slower pace. He knew whatever the two had in mind wouldn't matter. Kakashi stepped into the

forest and followed Naruto's trail. Naruto entered a clearing and decided to stop. Ignoring Sakura's

threats about what she was going to do to him once she got feeling back in her arm he quickly

covered her mouth. "Sakura I need you to listen closely." Naruto whispered. Sakura only nodded

hearing the seriousness in his voice.

"I want you to vanish. Go find a place to hide and don't come out until I give you a signal."

Sakura's eyes widened."Naruto came up with a plan?" she mentally shook her head in disbelief.

Naruto let her go and she immediately retreated into the forest waiting for the signal. Kakashi

meanwhile had stepped into the clearing raising an eyebrow he looked at Naruto.

"So Naruto...where is Sakura?"

"I thought she would only get in the way so I decided to send her packing. Why do you ask Kakashi?"

"Oh no reason... just wanted to kill two birds with one stone ya know." Kakashi smirked. Naruto

grunted and got into a defensive position. Kakashi noticed this and was starting to question Naruto's

logic.

"There is no way he can defend against my attacks so why the defensive position?"

Naruto just smirked at him.

"My defensive position is perfect! No one has been able to land a blow on me yet, and I doubt you will

either!" yelled Naruto in defiance. Kakashi scoffed at the blonds proposal.

"well I guess I should knock him down a couple pegs." Kakashi put his book back inside of his weapon

pouch. "OK simple taijutsu should be proficient here." mumbled Kakashi to himself. He steadily walked

towards Naruto. The blond didn't move a muscle. Waiting for Kakashi to get within five yards Naruto

decided it was time. Raising one arm in the air Naruto looked at Kakashi and smirked.

"No Replacement Jutsu this time!" and brought his arm down. As soon as his hand passed his

shoulders kunai erupted from the forest surrounding Kakashi. Kakashi quickly grabbing a kunai from

his pouch and deflecting the majority of the approaching kunai. Kakashi felt the presence of someone

behind him. He turned quickly to see Sasuke finishing his hand-signs.

"Fire Ball Jutsu!" His breath became flame and Kakashi had to jump quickly from his position keep from

being torched. Kakashi shook his head in disbelief at the promise this genin had. Kakashi was

somersaulting backwards, when his legs were caught on lines that were attached to the kunai.

"Shit so that was all just a diversion!" Kakashi thought to himself.

From the forest Sakura began to move towards the clearing when she ran into Kishimaru. Kishimaru

held up one hand signaling for her to stop.

"Whats going to Kishimaru?" Sakura asked slightly confused.

"Well Sakura, Naruto and I kinda figured that this test would be more than it seems. We quickly came

to the conclusion that there was no way either of us could pass the test by ourselves, so we decided

that no matter what we would team up." Sakura just nodded. "Naruto is not the smartest guy in the

world but he makes up for it with raw power and guts so I decided that we would lure our opponents

into a trap with Naruto being the decoy while I set it up."

Sakura was dumbstruck. This was all planned out.

"Now Sakura its your turn to do your part." Sakura listened intently as Kishimaru filled her in.

Meanwhile with Naruto, He had managed to keep Kakashi off balance with his shadow clones. As long

as Kakashi was fighting defensively he wouldn't be able to defeat their little trap. Kishimaru had clones

in the surrounding forest constantly throwing kunai some with wire on it to make Kakashi trip if he hit

one hopefully giving Naruto the advantage and allowing him to grab the bells.

Sakura nodded after Kishimaru had told her her part. Quickly running towards the clearing she made

the appropriate hand signs and cast her genjutsu. Kakashi, she hoped, was too busy from the

constant attacks that he wouldn't notice the genjutsu being placed upon him.

"Success" she whispered proudly to herself. The genjutsu she placed on Kakashi made her

invisible to the opponent the jutsu was cast upon. She quickly and quietly walked towards Kakashi,

hoping he wouldn't run into her.

Kakashi was having the time of his life. He was getting exercise and his students were working

together, as a team. Could this day get any better? It was then he felt the presence of someone

approaching him. He looked behind, left, right, and above, but no one was there. Naruto was a couple

yards away and Sasuke was to his left, but this chakra signature was not his it was someones, but

who's? Kakashi avoided another fireball headed in his direction. Sakura was now two feet away and

the excitement was building inside of her. Lunging forward with all her might she reached for the bells

on Kakashi's waist. When she grabbed she only felt two spheres,

"Damn only two" sho thought and she tightened her grip as tight as she could and prepared to pull

back. It was then that she saw Naruto and Sasuke both holding their family jewels with a look of pain

on their faces. Sakura looked up into her sensei's face and saw...tears? Sakura's mind instantly put

two and two together and a small blush appeared on her face.

Kakashi had never felt so much pain in his life than he felt that day. He felt his knees buckle and

landed on the ground praying that Sakura would let go.

"Sakura" he whispered

"yes Kakashi-sensei" she responded.

"FOR THE LOVE OF KAMI LET GO!" begged Kakashi as loud as he could. Sakura let go and Kakashi fell

on his face landing with a loud thud.

Naruto walked over to Sakura, the look of pain still on his face and knelt down beside Kakashi. Picking

up the three bells, he handed one to Sakura, threw one to Sasuke, and tossed one to the

approaching Kishimaru.

"Naruto... What are you doing?" Sakura asked. Naruto looked at her and just smirked.

"Well you guys did all the hard work. I'm the one who least deserves to be here." replied Naruto

truthfully.Sakura shook her head

"No way! It was you who kept his attention for the majority of the time. You should take my bell."

Sakura argued.

Kishimaru and Sasuke looked at the arguing teens and started laughing. Sakura didn't know why she

was arguing with Naruto. With him out of the picture no one would stand between her and Sasuke,

but something felt off.

"that's guilt my lovely Sakura, guilt that Naruto is being so noble and you are going to take his

bell." inner Sakura just shook her head. "If I were you I would show him some appreciation, like a

kiss maybe!" inner Sakura added hungrily.

Sakura just shook her head mentally and a small blush appeared on her cheeks. She didn't know if it

was from the 'incident' that had just occurred or if it was from the prospect of giving Naruto a kiss.

Either way she never got her chance, because at this time Kakashi was mumbling something into the

ground. All the genin turned their attention to their fallen sensei.

"ooulll sasss"

"huh" asked all four genin in unison.

"you all pass" replied Kakashi not even making an attempt to stand up "you all pass."

Well that's it for my fighting scene hope you all like it. Next chapter there is going to be a

time-skip since I really don't care about the D-rank missions anyways. :) Have a nice day and
