Chapter 5: Meet theTeam 7 and Kyou!
After two hours of anxiety, anticipation and deep curiosity of the future jounin instructor will be, finally all teams had left to start their new lesson with their respective teachers. All except for one.
'WHERE THE HELL IS HE??!!!' Kyuubi screamed his giant lungs out and his outburst echoed loud and continuously inside an innocent little boy's mind.
"What's wrong, dobe?" Sasuke stared at the now face-flat Naruto that just so suddenly fell of his chair with no apparent reason and swirls replacing his eyes. He heard a muffled sound of "Nothing" and glared at the widen eyes Sakura that sat in front of him. 'She must have done something! I knew it!' For some reason, the whole class suddenly has a really heavy atmosphere and Sakura was sweating a bucket. Literally.
"Ow… I think my eardrums explode…" Naruto mumbled.
'Eardrums?' Sasuke raised his eyebrow. 'I didn't hear anything deafening…' He then felt hairs behind his neck stood up. 'Is it just me or there's something really heavy in the air… It is that bitch's fault! She cursed my sweet Naru-uke!!' And Sasuke continued to glare at poor little Sakura. (NOT!!)
'Kyuubi, you do that again and I won't hesitate to cut off our telepathic connection for good! Get that?!' Naruto mentally yelled at Kyuubi.
'NOOO!!! I'LL DIE OUT OF SHEER BOREDOM!!!!' Kyuubi, again, screamed his frustration out.
'Last warning…' Naruto twitched.
"If you don't mind Naru…" Kouhei suddenly joined in as he lay comfortably on the table. "I would like to honor myself to give you a more effective idea…" A wild menacing look shadowed the white fox's face.
'What! What did I do to you?!!' Kyuubi shouted less deafening and more defensive.
"Naru's mind isn't the only mind you could connect to, remember? Kyuubi-sama…?" Kouhei's ears lay flat on his skull and he glared within Naruto. "DON'T YOU KNOW HOW SENSITIVE MY EARS ARE IN THIS FORM??!!!" He suddenly barked loudly enough to be heard by the other two teammates.
"Oi, Naruto-baka! What's with your stupid fox?! Shut the mutt up NOW!!" Sakura ordered annoyingly.
"Who made you the boss?" Sakura fumed at his remarks. "Besides, his as angry as all of us..." Naruto patted the pissed off fox's head. "Let's teach him a fair lesson…"
Naruto walked to the classroom door and stared at it for a moment.
'Well…? I'm being generous for a prank here…'
'Kukuku… consider I'm being nice since he'll be your new teacher…' Kyuubi chuckled as he told Naruto his plan.
Naruto went to the blackboard and took the duster to the door and set it at the top. He lingered with the duster for a while before he let the door to open slightly. He smiled at his fine work. "That should do it…"
Sakura laughed hysterically. "You think THAT's gonna work?! I knew you're still the dead-last goof-ball!!" She continues laughing madly.
Sasuke eyed Naruto who's walking back to his seat while holding a… Damn, that fox of his got some anger issue. 'Naruto… you're dealing with a jounin. There's no way that cheap prank gonna get him.'
As if on cue, the door opens thus, the duster dropped straight on the victim's head.
'I take it back… ALL of it.'
"That was lame." The jounin grumbled.
Just when he's foot step into the room, thousand of duster fell from the ceiling and the jounin was buried alive under the pile of duster with a hand sticking out.
Sakura's jaw almost hit the ground and Sasuke's eyes almost popped out of its socket. Both thought of the same question; 'Where the hell did all of those came from?!'
"Hahaha!! That's what you get for keeping us waiting, sensei." Naruto pointed out the word sensei. "Don't ever make your dear students disappointed, sensei." He grinned widely and oh-so-sweetly to his buried teacher.
Sakura helped their new teacher dug his way out. "Naruto! How could you be so rude to our new teacher?!" And she starts to lecture him about things like manners, respect, and other boring stuffs. Naruto and Kouhei rolled their eyes and ignore her while Kyuubi laughed insanely like the demon he is.
After half an hour of digging, finally the jounin could breathed in clean, fresh air and no chalk dust to sting his one and only visible eye. "Gyaaah! I thought that's the last time I ever breathed air…" He breathed in more and stretched his cramped body. After a while, he finally took notice of the three new students of his.
His face immediately turns sour. 'Of all genin, I get the Konoha's prankster! Oh why me??!' Kakashi thought helplessly. "Okay… my first impression is… I hate all of you, especially YOU." He point at Naruto. "Tell me something I don't know…" Naruto chuckled. "Whatever, all of you meet me on the roof in five minutes." And the jounin poofed into cloud of white smoke.
"Kay, let's go Kou!" Naruto punched his fist in the air and ran out of the classroom with Kouhei settling on his shoulder. Sasuke followed after him. 'I'm the one you should be calling not that stinking fox!' Sasuke glared the infamous Uchiha glare at Kouhei's back. Suddenly, the fox turned his head behind. Sasuke stopped dead on his track. Shiver ran down his spine, his face turned ghostly white. 'D…Did…did that fox j… ju… just glare back at me?!! It even smirks evilly at me!!!' He froze and trembled slightly. 'I think I heard it laughed…'.
"Oh, Sasuke-kun!!! You've wait for me!!!" Sakura squealed loud enough to wake Sasuke out of his trauma.
'Huh? I've got a bad aura…' Sasuke turned around slowly.
Sakura skipped merrily towards him with flowers surrounding her and rainbows shone brightly as background. "Sasuke-kuuun~!" She sang.
'OMG!! That's EVEN WORST!!' Sasuke ran like a lightning to the roof leaving Sakura in the dust.
--Academy Rooftop --
"Ok, let's start with introduction."
"Huh? Erm… how do we do it, sensei?" Sakura asked. Naruto was patting Kouhei and Sasuke kept glaring at the fox. He stopped when he felt the 'aura' again.
"Hm? You know, likes, dislikes, hobbies, dreams for the future… you know, things like that." The silver-haired jounin explained.
"You first, sensei." Naruto suggested. "You know, so we know what to say." Both Sasuke and Sakura nodded.
"Okay well, I'm Hatake Kakashi, my likes and dislikes are… hm…, my hobbies… I got lots of hobbies, my dreams for the future…" He trailed off and gaze far away at the sky. "Oh well, your turn pinkey."
'All we learned is his name…?' Three people thought of this.
'He's way too lazy… Is he a real jounin?'
'I knew I should have replaced the dusters with teacher's desk…'
Sakura hmph-ed and starts blabbering. "My name is Haruno Sakura. My likes are… glance at Sasuke, well… my hobbies are… glance at Sasuke –giggles-, my dreams for the future… -squealed-." Kakashi sweatdropped. "And I HATE Naruto-BAKA!!"
"Been there, done that…" Naruto laughed.
"She's second on my blacklist, first on my DEATHLIST!" Kouhei growled.
'You mean Death Note?'
'………… What The Hell is a Death Note??!!'
'………….'
"Oh my gosh…" Naruto muttered slowly.
"Blondie? Its your turn." Kakashi observed the sky eyes blonde. Just a moment he was laughing, then suddenly he got the 'WTF!' look on him. 'Weird, kid…'
"Eh? Well, erm… my name's Uzumaki Naruto. My likes are ramen, doing pranks, Iruka-sensei, and Kou!" He ruffled the slightly red looking fox. "My dislikes are annoying, emo-bastard," Sasuke flinched. "… fangirls, snakes, damn council…" He whispered the last part. "My hobbies training, pranking, spending time with Kou. My dream for the future is… hmm… it's pretty hard to decide…" He scratched the back of his head in a childish manner.
'Hm… pretty cute- WHAT did I just thought?!' Kakashi almost slap himself. "Ok, last one." He turned to Sasuke.
"I'm Uchiha Sasuke. I like nothing and hate everything. My dream is not a dream as I will make it real…" Sasuke close his eyes. "The problem now is…". 'I have no idea whether to kill my psychotic brother or to fuck Naruto!' His closed eyes scrunched a bit showing that his in deep thought and frustration as he tried to choose but failed miserably.
'Okay… I was sure his going to say; Kill Itachi.' Kakashi sweatdropped. 'He's even weirder…' "Now, since everyone had been introduced, we'll start our test tomorrow."
"HUH?"
"Well now, you don't think that everyone will easily be a genin right?"
"But sensei," Sakura voice held worried in it. "We already pass the test!"
"You only pass qualification test for those who might have a chance to be a genin. Your test will be graded at the training field. You may bring your shinobi tools. Oh, and one more thing…" Kakashi said grimly. "Better skip breakfast or you'll throw up…"
Sakura shuddered at the sound of his voice.
Sasuke sweats at the seriousness of his new/would be teacher.
And Naruto……
"YOSH!! BRING IT ON SCARECROW-OSSAN!!!" yelled and punched the air.
'OSSAN??!!!' Kakashi's eye widens and ticks starts to form on his head. 'He better not mean the hair…' He twitched.
"NARUTO!! WHAT THE HELL DID YOU CALL HIM?!! IT'S BAD ENOUGH WE HAD TO GO ON ANOTHER TEST, NOW YOU'RE CURSING US TO FAIL!!!" Sakura shouted and launched a fist at Naruto.
"Miss me!" Naruto said playfully as he side stepped the attack.
Sakura hit thin air and fell face flat directly in front of Sasuke.
"Stupid…" Sasuke glared ice dagger at her.
Sakura sniffled. She then snapped at Naruto. "THIS IS ALL YOUR FAULT MONSTER!!"
"Sakura!!" Kakashi stopped the rampaging banshee and shuts her mouth. He looked at Naruto with worried and a slight of panic.
"Eh? Monster? Where?" Naruto put his hand just above his eyes and scout the village with his back facing the other three.
Kakashi fall anime style, thus releasing his hand that was holding Sakura and her talkative mouth and she continue babbling about something that no one gives a damn about.
"Em, well, urgh… since there's nothing more to be said, I'll see the three of you at the training ground tomorrow morning." Kakashi dust off his vest. "Remember what I told you."
"Hait, Kakashi-sensei!" Naruto saluted cheerfully. Wide grin never left his face.
Kakashi couldn't help but smile at the blonde's childishness. 'I feel like I just wanna take him home and- WHAT THE HELL DID I JUST THOUGHT AGAIN??!!' Kakashi shook his head fiercely and jumped off rooftop to rooftop until he reached his special private place. "I need to re-educate myself to the true road…" He flipped a book out of his back pouch and starts to read. But every time he flipped the pages, a certain sapphire eyes blonde kept on appearing in his mind. "Oh, fuck…"
--Somewhere in the forest—
"Ne, Naru? Why are we heading to the Tamashii no Mizu-umi?" Kouhei, who's in his human form walk alongside the smiling blonde asked.
"It's a secret!"
"You've been blocking mine and Kyuubi-sama's mind connection every night since the scroll incident. You sure you're feeling well?" Kouhei looked worriedly at Naruto.
The boy looked up to face him. "Why are you asking so much Kouhei?"
"Well…" Kouhei's eyes trailed off to the bag that Naruto's carrying. "You brought a pair of my clothes… and I'm not gonna wear that, so yeah. Suspicious…"
"Aww… come on be more like Kyuubi. He shuts up ever since we left the house." Naruto grinned.
Kouhei eyed him. "You told him to doze off if he doesn't want you to eat another ten bowls of ramen at Ichiraku, right?" Naruto chuckled. Kouhei just sighed.
"We're here!" Naruto announced as he opened the leaves veil.
"Waaahh! It's been so long since I visited this lake!" Naruto took a deep breath and exhaled. "The air is fresh as always!"
"Of course, Naru. We're the only one who knew the existence of this lake. We guard this lake from humans for a pretty long time now." Kouhei watched as Naruto dropped his bag and took off his… shirt?
"O…Oi, Naru! Wh…what are you doing?!" Kouhei stuttered as his face turned a light shade of red.
"Hm? Taking my shirts off for a while." Naruto answered casually and continue on what he's doing.
"Yeah, why?"
Naruto smiled. "I'm gonna break the seal!"
……………….
"NANI??!! Naru, you know how to break it?! Why didn't you tell us?!!" Kouhei snapped and explode at the same time.
"Because Kyuubi will get too excited and you definitely won't let me try it first." Naruto drew a circle on the ground with his foot. "Okay!" He grinned satisfied.
"Wait! You don't know if it's safe or not!" Kouhei tried to convince him.
"Yeah, I don't know. That's why I've got to do it!" Kouhei suddenly felt like a migraine coming. Naruto smiled. "Come on Kouhei, don't you trust me?"
Kouhei took his time. "Fine…" he sighed in defeat. "Is this why you chose the lake?"
Naruto nodded. "Yup! The lake can absorb the large amount of stray chakra that I'm gonna use. Plus some of Kyuubi's chakra that will leak as well. No one will know about this." He sat in the middle of the circle. Kouhei sat under a tree not to far from him.
Naruto starts to concentrate his chakra. Soon, blue chakra retraces the circle he drew and spreds into another large circle outside of it. The outer circle drew unknown symbols until it reach the inner circle. He then chanted a mantra and the outer circle glow brightly and create a semi-orb around him. Wind starts to blow stronger around the semi-orb.
'This is why Naru insisted on using the lake… His chakra wind pressure alone could cause this strong wind.' Kouhei create a wind barrier around him. 'Kyuubi-sama owes him big time…' He smirked.
Suddenly red chakra starts to glow along with the blue chakra. Naruto hands tremble a little and he starts to sweat. The wind as well picks up the pace and the strength could rival a mini hurricane. "Kage bushin no jutsu: Soul Transferring technique!" He yelled and slammed his finger on the ground. A clone appears in front of him and red chakra swirled engulfing the clone in rapid pace. The speed of the red chakra slowed down and the disappeared beneath the figure. The blueish semi-orb disappears as well as the outer circle. In front of Naruto stood a tall man around twenty with shoulder length bloodied hair and tanned skin. The man opened his eyes and showed striking golden eyes with slits as the pupil to the world. He got three broad whiskers marks each side of his cheek and his wearing….. nothing.
"Gyaahh!! Is it morning already Kit?" The man yawned stretched his arms upwards and rubbed his eye. 'Ara?' The man looked at his hands. "No way…"
"Looks like it worked, Kyuubi-sama." Kouhei threw Naruto's bag at him. "Naru broke the seal…" Kyuubi opened the bag and peer inside. "Wear it." Kouhei walked to the unconscious Naruto and picked him up bridal style. He carried him to the edge of the lake and sets him down. He scooped some of the lake water and gently wiped Naruto's sweaty face. 'You've become so strong Naru…' Kouhei caressed his soft cheek. He smiled sadly. 'Kyuubi-sama is free now… We have to return to Makai after this…' He stared longingly at him. 'I wish… I never have to leave your side…'
"We're not going anywhere." Kouhei turned his head around. Kyuubi stood behind him wearing black leather, sleeveless shirt and a pair of black jeans. "The pants are good but, man this shirt is so damn tight!!" Kyuubi complained.
"Wh… what did you just said? Kyuubi-sama, we had a deal with the Four Leaders of Makai that we'll return once you are free from the seal! Breaking the deal will not only cost you but even Naru!" Kouhei hold Naruto even closer.
"Well now, too bad." Kyuubi snorted. "I'm still trapped…"
"What?"
Kyuubi scratched his head, trying to find the right word to explain. "I'm not entirely sure but my chakra is still within Kit." Kouhei was about to yell something before Kyuubi stop him. "I know, I'm out, but some of my chakra had blended or merged with Kit's. In other words…" Kyuubi look seriously at Kouhei. "He had absorbed large amount of my chakra, Kit has become a part of me."
Kouhei sat there motionless. He's still digesting every single word that Kyuubi had told him. "So… that means…" A smile formed on both men's lips. "We can't go back since Naru still carries your chakra!" He almost shouted the last part.
"Hahaha!! That's right! Those four can't do anything to undo this." Kyuubi laughed again. "We won't be going anywhere, Kouhei. It's our job to supervise Kit's development on controlling my chakra, remember? Well, since his now a part of me…"
"We'll be staying for a looong time." Kouhei carried Naruto again. "Let's go home then, Kyuubi-sama." Said man growled lowly.
"If you keep calling me that, sooner or later someone is bound to find out!" Kouhei stared at his master. "You're allowing me to call you 'Baka-youko'? I'm flattened." He bowed.
"Not that!! NEVER, FUCKING CALL ME THAT!!!" Kyuubi actually barked.
"Then?" Kouhei and Kyuubi walked back towards the village. "What do you want to be called?" Kouhei adjust Naruto's position to piggy-back.
Kyuubi gave a thought. "I guess something simple like… Kyou." Kouhei stared at him with a startle look. "What?"
He sweatdropped. "That's way too simple Kyuub- I mean Kyou-san." He chuckled softly. The two laughed as they leave Tamashii no Mizu-umi.
Naruto snuggled closer to Kouhei's neck. "Atsui…"
