Me: Okay here's chapter 2. I haven't really checked my story yet so I don't know how it's doing. Oh well.
Naruto: Okay so just post chapters and hope people read them. So once again get to the disclaimer.
Me: Right, right, anyway Naruto doesn't belong to me. If it did on the other hand, it wouldn't be kid's show.
The Survival Test
The next day arrive very fast. Since they had been instructed by Kakashi to come to training area 16 at 6:00 am, they all had to wake up almost an hour earlier.
Ino did her usual, minus breakfast. She took a quick shower then straightened her hair (sorry had to include that since I have almost never met a girl who doesn't straighten her hair). Then she had put on her usual clothes, a purple shirt with bandages underneath it, and a short purple skirt with bandages as leggings. Before leaving her home, she pulled her hair into a high pony tail. Then she made her way to the training area. Although she was starving, she thought it would be a quick think that would be over in an hour.
Shino woke up to his father kicking him in the side. Of course waking up at 5 am was nothing new to the bug user. Shino didn't eat breakfast anyway, so he really didn't care how long he had to go without food. If worse came to worse, he would bring food to the training area. He already knew from his father that Kakashi had a horrible habit of being late, all the time. Shino pulled on a loose black shirt, baggy black pants, and put on his high collared jacket before leaving the compound. He knew the survival test would have some stupid lesson that would teach them one thing or another. So the whole way to training area, he was trying to figure out what.
Sasuke woke up at 5:45 am to his alarm clock that he forgot to set to 5 am the previous night. In the morning Sasuke was always slow and groggy, so he took his time, even though he knew that the training area was at least twenty minutes away. Sasuke put on his baggy blue shirt with the Uchiha clan's symbol, that paper fan thing, and his usual pair of baggy white shorts. At first he considered listening to what Kakashi said about not eating breakfast. But in Sasuke's eyes, skipping a meal means you're anorexic. Meaning since he wasn't anorexic he found no need to skip the meal. Nor did he have any other eating disorder. That was what girls had. So he sat down and had a bowl of Lucky O'Kaibas 1. Sasuke thought of the motto as he happily ate down the sugary cereal. It was, "It sounds Irish, but I sure ain't one." So once Sasuke finished his cereal, he put some extra food in his bag, and dashed out his house in order to make it to the training site. It was 5:55 am.
Kakashi on the other hand had decided he wanted more sleep when his alarm went off at 5:50 am. He had completely forgotten that he had to meet them at the training area. When he finally woke up, it was to Asuma half breaking down the door and Pakkun almost tearing his hand off. Asuma and Pakkun were trying to remind him of the same thing, his team. Kakashi looked at the clock next to his bed as he told Pakkun to let Asuma in. It was 8:20 am. Asuma almost dragged him out of bed. After finally getting most of his stuff on, he sat down and some how ate breakfast for forty-five minutes. By that time, it was 9:00 am. He then some how wasted an hour before finally arriving at the training area.
"Yo. So people lets get down to business." said Kakashi as he arrived at about 9:57. With his three hour and fifty-seven minute lateness unexcused, Ino got very irritated.
"Hey! Just because you teach, that doesn't mean you can be late all the time and not even try to explain it to us!" shouted an infuriated Ino.
Kakashi first react was just staring at her as she had four heads and whatever else went on his oh so perverted mind. "Umm… If you really need a reason I guess I could tell…maybe…oh well. Okay I wondered a bit off the path of life." said Kakashi as he walked over to the three of them.
"So what why did you want us to come here anyway. All you said yesterday was a survival test." asked Ino curiously.
"Ok listen up. I'll explain this as briefly as I can, ok. So basically the point of this survival test is to get these bells." said Kakashi as he held up two silver bells. "To give you a little more incentive, I brought food with me, meaning your lunch." He put the three lunches near a black stone sticking out of the ground and then placed a clock on the rock as well. "See this here kiddies, this is a clock. So basically when the big hand and the little hand both are on the twelve and you don't have the bells, you fail."
"Wait so we only have two hours to get two bells?" asked Ino.
"Yep and if you can't get them in time, I will tie all three of you to those trees and eat in front of you." explained Kakashi who was setting the alarm on the clock to set off at noon. "So let's begin."
In a second, Ino and Sasuke hid, while Shino was just standing there.
"I hate to ask, but why are you still standing there?" asked Kakashi who was completely confused since he hadn't seen that kind of stupidity in years.
"I need to figure out something before I will bother trying to do anything." explained Shino as he adjusted his glassed over his eyes correctly.
"Uhh…Okay, you do that. So while I back a while slowly, keep wondering to yourself over there." said Kakashi he did exactly what he said he was going to do. In an eye blink the silver haired man vanished. But Shino just smirked to himself since he did exactly what he needed to do.
Ino panicked since she didn't know where Kakashi ran off to. She was moving through the trees quickly to try and find the man. When she arrived in an open field, she then realized she was followed. She knew it was Kakashi at that point.
"So you finally noticed?" chuckled Kakashi. Ino almost jumped when she saw him.
"H-how long were you following me?" asked Ino trying not to show how freaked she was.
"Well long enough Ino. You know Iruka said you notice people really fast but then again proving people wrong is one of my favorite things to do." said Kakashi as he preformed some hand signs. But unfortunately for Kakashi, he was in a very wrong place at a very wrong time. Sasuke jumped out of no where and kicked him in the side. So how, some way, it wasn't a clone. Kakashi staggered a bit and once an again Sasuke went on the attack. But unfortunately Lucky O'Kaibas isn't the best meal to eat before bounding around. So Sasuke projectile vomited into Kakashi's hair. As soon as Sasuke realized what happened, he ran off. If there was one thing he every learned from his brother, it was that if you projectile vomited on to Kakashi, he could snap. So Sasuke ditched Ino in order to save his own life.
Kakashi looked really annoyed and almost murderous as Sasuke ran a way. Ino thought that Kakashi had full right to kill Sasuke right now. Still annoyed, Kakashi left to go after Sasuke. Kakashi was dead set on beating Sasuke to a bloody pulp. But before he could fulfill this, Shino turned up in order to get the bells.
"Shino, huh, I guess I can make this quick." said Kakashi as he was still removing a lot of the vomit from his hair.
Shino just ended up staring at the different colors that were now in Kakashi's hair. So all Shino could say was, "Holy Habadashary, that's disgusting." Kakashi now was confused since he had never heard something so creepy in his life.
Since Kakashi was still trying to get the marshmallow remains out of his hair, he seemed to be distracted so Shino decided to attack. Kakashi who was already annoyed, noticed that Shino preparing something. So he stopped trying to get the Uchiha's puke out of his hair, and tried to figure out what Shino was doing. Shino unleashed a couple thousand insects on Kakashi. But since Kakashi had some sparring matches with Shibi Aburame, he had some experience dealing with the bug wielding clan. Shino did some bug attack that obviously doesn't deserve to be named. Kakashi barely dodged the bugs since he just remembered he was horrified of insects. That was the exact reason he never won against Shibi. So he was screwed. To get out of the way of Shino's attack Kakashi ran off in the direction he last saw Sasuke go. He decided that dealing with Shino can come later.
Sasuke was still running for his life, since he noticed that Kakashi was in hot pursuit of him. Oh shit I'm screwed, thought Sasuke as he picked up his pace. Ino on the other hand was still standing in the same spot she was when Kakashi first followed her. In her mind she thought, Man, why did he seem like a creepy old pervert? Shino, unlike the other two, was trying to figure stuff out. Stuff as in: Why he was on such a stupid team? and What was Kakashi stupid jounin "moral" that he would be crazy about for the rest of their training? All Kakashi was thinking about was how many different ways he could kill Sasuke, right now he was on method 5,934. So basically no one knew that time was almost up.
"00:00:10"
"00:00:09"
"00:00:08"
Okay 8 seconds later the time was 12:00 pm, as in noon. The alarm rang. Since they were all ninjas, they all obviously heard, so they went back to where they began the test.
"Ok, guys let put this in the nicest way physically possible right now." started Kakashi as he walked over to them. Luckily for Shino and Ino, the only person Kakashi tied up was Sasuke. "You, boy, you are very lucky, very, very lucky that I don't kill you. That was why I told you NOT to EAT!" Kakashi said heavily stressing the bolded or capitalized words.
Sasuke started smiling like an idiot, and then finally said, "Hey you know Itachi was right for once in his sorry loser-ish life!"
"????" was all group had written all over their faces.
"Uh…Sasuke, explain we're having a hard time here." said Shino, since the other two were being too dumb to ask.
"Oh…Well Itachi used to be in the ANBU with Kakashi there, and one day on a mission, Itachi was feeling sick. He was sitting on a tree branch and then he threw up and it fell down on Kakashi's hair. Then when Itachi came home, he told me…" Sasuke continued on with that story about ten times until Shino punched him in the face.
"SHUT UP YOU IDIOT!!!!!" Shino shouted.
"WAHHHHH!! That hurt you prick." said a very angry Sasuke. Ino just stood there shaking her head, as she saw Shino beating up a tied up Sasuke. Ugh…Why is Sasuke so stupid? I mean he's okay looking but he's just too dumb, thought Ino. Kakashi was thinking of how he should tell them they failed miserably as he pulled out the latest issue of Icha Icha Paradise.
"Uh…People, I got something I need to tell you guys." said Kakashi not taking his eyes off the dirty book in front of him.
"Umm…What is it?" asked Ino.
"Well…Since you didn't get the bells in time, yeah, you guys can't pass." explained Kakashi as if he didn't seem to be paying attention to them at all. Holy Heisenberg!!! She's sleeping with her husband's twin brother who was born in a factory, thought Kakashi, as he turned to the next page looking slightly more interested than he already was.
"WHAT!!!???" shouted Ino. "You can't do that!"
"Yeah I can. See in this thing called the beginner's guide to teaching loser brats, page 257, article 564.7, subsection 8, paragraph 12, it says that the jounin instructor can fail his/her team in a heart beat, as long as the "survival test" has been administered." said Kakashi, who seemed not to care what was going on around him.
"Okay that sounds reasonable." said Shino, who obviously didn't care if he passed or not.
"Hey, teacher guy, why is your hair brown, green, and have cool marshmallowy bits in it?" asked Sasuke as if he didn't already know.
"Okay for that I'm not even considering letting you little brats have another chance." said Kakashi as he was reminded that he had a small kid's puke in his hair. Of course since his hair was silver it stained with everything, blood, mud, and especially VOMIT.
"Oh come on! Just because Sasuke was stupid and puked in your hair, doesn't mean you can fail us all!" shouted Ino, knowing her father would be pissed if she didn't pass this year.
"Hmm…I suppose you have a point. But the only way you could get these bells from me is if Jesus came down from the sky, struck me a bolt of lightning, sawed off my legs, and then I went blind in both eyes would you even have the smallest chance. Anyway in my eyes if one of you fails all of you fail. On real mission, if you did what you did during the test, I wouldn't hesitate to kill you if I was the enemy of course." said Kakashi. If there was one thing the Copy-Ninja was known for, it was his horribly long winded speeches that made no sense to the topic he was addressing. In short, whenever he made a speech, it made little to no sense to the situation.
"Okay I think I did great minus the teamwork part." said Shino. "Yeah, I think you were running from me in the forest."
"Okay shut up. I'll give you another chance. Here." Kakashi said as he tossed Ino and Shino a lunch each. "After you eat we'll continue. Oh if you feed Sasuke, I WILL DECAPITATE YOU!" Kakashi said sending death beams to all three of them, especially Sasuke who now looked horribly emo.
So Kakashi walked away with the third lunch that was obviously his and a small orange book. For about three minutes Sasuke was just moaning about being so hungry.
"Okay, you emo fuck just take my fucking food and eat the damn crap!" shouted Shino as he stood up.
"Hey, uh, Shino, here you eat a lot more than me. So here Sasuke." said Ino as she was about to give Sasuke food.
"Hey bitch, didn't I just say I was giving him my fucking food?! Are you retarded? Come on I probably eat less than you." said Shino angrily.
"Ugh…Fine then you stupid prick give him you stupid food then! I don't care." shouted Ino in response.
"Fine, but now I don't want to. Feed him whore." said Shino who obviously tired of this team.
"Whatever." said Ino as she gave Sasuke a bite of her food.
Just then Kakashi appeared in front of them. "WHAT DID I TELL YOU RETARDS!!??? DON'T FEED HIM!!!" shouted Kakashi, as he preformed a quick set of hand signs. Suddenly a ball of blue electrical charka appeared in his hand.
Shino didn't look too shocked or scared since he just figured out Kakashi's stupid jounin moral. Ino was scared since she was thinking of all the things she could have done if all this didn't happen. Sasuke on the other hand was too oblivious to notice that he could be killed any second.
"So kiddies now why did you go and feed Sasuke there?" questioned Kakashi, as the electrical ball of chakra was still in his hand making a weird chirp, chirp noise.
"Because were…uh…teammates." said Shino, unsure if it was the right thing to say. He motioned glanced at Ino which, told her to build on that.
"Yeah we couldn't just eat in front of Sasuke why he didn't have anything to eat either. I mean yeah he's annoying and weird but it'd been wrong if we didn't give him any." continued as she was building off of what Shino said.
Sasuke then said something to the same effect. But it was still stupid. Oh well but Kakashi ended up getting the point.
"Hmm…" was all Kakashi said as he still threatened them with the electrical ball of chakra.
"What's going to happen now?" said a still terrified Ino.
"You, guy…" began Kakashi.
"What?" said Shino getting annoyed at the stupidity it took to say "you pass".
"You, guys… actually…" said Kakashi who was obviously getting a kick at the dramatic build up.
"Did we pass?" asked Sasuke as he looked directly at Kakashi. "Well Kakashi?"
"Yep." said Kakashi as the electrical ball of chakra disappeared. "Whether you understood the lesson or not, I will explain it to all of you."
"Did this lesson have anything to do with teamwork by any chance?" asked Shino, since he usually was the one who asked these questions without fearing the incurring the jounin's wrath again.
"Yeah it did. In this world those who don't follow orders are trash, but those who won't help their comrades are worse than trash." said Kakashi with a small hint of lingering sadness in his voice. "So basically had it been a real mission, you all would have died. But we're just gonna have to work on some of those teamwork skills."
"We actually PASSED!" squealed Ino as she ended up hugging Kakashi in her happiness.
"Uh…yeah that's nice, but can you let go of me?" said Kakashi, obviously not liking the close contact of another person.
When Ino realized what she did, she jumped back and laughed a little. "Sorry."
"Don't worry about, never do it again." Kakashi said as he pulled out his orange book again. "I'll get you guys some new missions from the Hokage starting tomorrow. So we'll meet at that ugly little red bridge near the east end of the Konoha at 7 am. Okay?" said Kakashi as he cut down Sasuke from the log.
After a few near death experiences, team 7 finally became actual genin. Some missions are going to come in soon.
