Hey you guys, sorry. Stupid comcast. Internet broke down, at my place from like 8:30 to like I don know..it still isn't here. Yeah…Happy New Year….yeah…the Bell Test-----O yeah….by the way…Takeshi's thoughts are italics, Rin's underlined, and Kai's bold. Well, forget almost everything I said about them before, except for their physical characteristics. You'll know them a lot better after this.

The Bell Test

"Where the hell is Kakashi-sensei?" Takeshi began to yell. The Yamanichi triplets had been told to arrive at the training grounds at 8:00, without breakfast! It was well past 9:30 right now, and there wasn't a trace of the Jounin, in sight. They had been waiting here for over an hour and half. Of course, they didn't know of their sensei's reputation for being late.

Kai and Rin grinned, knowing their brother. He was really impatient. But at the same time, they were growing impatient as well. They were hungry, and they really wanted to impress their new teacher, so they just kept quiet and waited.

Another ten minutes later, Kakashi finally arrived. Takeshi greeted him.

"WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN!" Takeshi yelled. "You, idiot. You told us not to eat breakfast, and you were supposed to be here at 8:00!"

Kakashi grinned. )He's a lot like Naruto. Loud...knuckle-headed...not that bright...looks like he's the clown of the group...blue eyes...like Naruto( "I'm sorry, but there was an old lady who needed some help to cross the street and-"

"Cut the crap, Kakashi….sensei…I want to start practicing and proving myself right.…NOW!" Takeshi was practically exploding with excitement. Kai and Rin sweatdropped as they watched their brother jump up and down on the rail of the bridge.

Kakashi looked around at the other two, and, after receiving a greeting from them, turned to face Takeshi. He grinned. "You want to start, eh? Then follow me." Kakashi began to walk down to the center of the field.

Takeshi smiled, and jumped into the air. "O Yeah!" He began to follow Kakashi and so did his siblings. All of them began to think about different stuff.

Takeshi….idiot…he wanted us to wait…he's up to something…or he really did find an old lady…doubt it though….He might want us to spar each other…Rin…no challenge…Takeshi…no challenge….him….problem…wait…this is going to be the first time since our sparring with the other class that I've seen Takeshi fight….he couldn't have improved that much…

Takeshi…you really need to gain some patience... Kakashi-sensei probably wanted us to wait….if I read enough about him…he's gonna make us fight something…or someone….if I have to…I can kick Takeshi…but Kai….problem…wait…what if Takeshi improved?…I can't beat him, then…I can't fight…period.. NOOOOO!

O yeah…I'm gonna pass this test with flying colors- - I have no idea what we have to do, but I'll bet that it will be the hardest test I've ever taken…who cares!

Kakashi stopped, and so did everyone else. He told them to sit down, and he began to talk. He explained the rules:

"So…you have to get the bells from me….there are only two…so only two of you can pass," Kakashi said. "Get the bell, and you pass and get to eat lunch. If you don't, you fail and go hungry."

Takeshi couldn't believe this. "WHAT! You made us go hungry just for this!"

Kai chuckled, and Rin giggled. "Um...Takeshi...you're the only one who didn't eat breakfast. We wanted to tell you, but Kai wanted you to figure it out on your own."

"WHAT! How could you guys do this to me," Takeshi said pointing to himself with index, and then changed to his thumb. He looked like he was about to cry. " I mean...I'm the one who eats five meals a day...and...WH...hh..hhh...yyyy! I'm not gonna make it."

Kai chuckled. "Just shut up. If you were smart enough, you would have realized what we did. We had an idea that he would do this."

Kakashi laughed. "You should observe your siblings a lot closer, Takeshi. Anyways, lets get started on three. You have three...no one hour," Kakashi said. He looked around. "I said three...get going..."

"O...yeah..." Rin said just before disappearing into the trees. Kai had already disappeared. Where the heck is...TAKESHI!

Kakashi just stood there. Seconds later, he dissappeared using the Body Flicker technique and appeared behind a running Takeshi.)Kid...thinks he can get me...( Kakashi took out his kunai, and began to bring it down to Takeshi. All of a sudden, Takeshi stopped, turned around, and tossed a shuriken.(sp) Kakashi was somewhat taken back, but he was still the Copy Ninja. He dodged it, and took his kunai to Takeshi's neck.

"Don't be so impatient," Kakashi said, maintaining a mocking tone, even though he was chuckling inside. )Takeshi was way too much like Naruto. All that's missing from this kid is his sig-(

With a loud "poof" the Shadow Clone, disappeared and running Takeshi appeared through the smoke holding a kunai.)What...how could he learn the Shadow Clone technique...he's Naruto reincarnated. Sorry...but that alone is not goin to get you to pass.( Kakashi decided to stop the brat, and he began to take out some rope to set a trap, when-

"Yo," voices cried out, "Kakashi...TAKE THIS!" Two kunai and a bunch of shuriken went flying straight at Kakashi. Kakashi smiled as the kunai hit their marks, and with a loud "poof," the kunai just passed right through the smoke, at Takeshi. Takeshi stopped dead in his tracks, and with another loud "poof," the kunai just hit the ground.

"What! Where's Kakashi?" Kai asked, looking around. Kai was looking, around. Damn it. Where's Kakashi...I can't find him...damn. He smiled. Takeshi...

Kakashi was smiling...)for the first time in his life...no...HISTORY...a genin team was working together from the start...still...he would have to punish Takeshi for making fun of him...but...he planned this...it must have been when he pointed those two fingers at himself...clever...(

"Take this for clever," Takeshi yelled, as he took one last swipe for the bells, when the clock rang. Kakashi disappeared and reappeared at the clock.

"Sorry, but...TIMES UP!" Kakashi said. He was smiling. Kai, Rin, and Takeshi glumly walked up to Kakashi, and looked down at the ground.

Before they knew it, Takeshi was tied up to the log, and Kakashi was smiling. "You all pass. Well...i don't want Takeshi to pass...but he kind of organized you two."

"Yeah..." Rin said smiling. "He organized all of this last night. He didn't eat though. We didn't tell him, really."

"Takeshi," Kakashi began, "You're only tied up, because its a tradition for the loudmouth to get tied up. Believe it or not, Naruto and I were the ones tied up when we took this test."

"No way! Your kidding me," Takeshi said smiling. "You're not that bad, Kakashi-sensei."

"Way to go, Takeshi," Kakashi said smiling. "You pass, with...as Naruto would say...flying colors. You three do know that the previous Team 7 came from me. Well, anyways, who wants some ramen."

All three of them yelled, " I DO!" With that, Kai and Rin walked off with Kakashi.

Takeshi began to yell, "HEY! I'M STILL TIED UP HERE!" He looked at his siblings, who just kept on walking. "Hello...you guys...I repeat...I'M STILL HERE... HEYYYY!" He sniffed.
