Wow, so many reviews!
Sublivion Mist: I'm glad that you're enjoying it! Sorry again for the errors, I think I already explained some of why they're there? Yeah, well anyways I'm glad you took the time to review!
Elim Garak: I've always found it strange how when someone is reborn they seem to forget their entire life and never try to push technology or anything further. As for your questions, I don't know exactly where but I do know that stuff exists. There are microwaves and stoves and TVs, if you look at any episodes that aren't 'punch, punch, tragic back story, shining glory epic battle power UP!' you can see very basic appliances and such in the houses. There was actually one panel in the manga where I guy walked past Kakashi with an Ipod! So actually they do have electricity, and Jaraiya had a laptop. As for the seals, I'm actually addressing that in this chapter.
Vaughn Tyler: Thank you, I try.
ShugoYuuki123: Hope it doesn't disappoint!
Sabie0521: Ah, I'm sorry if I wasn't very clear! What basically happened was that Asuka used the Replacement Jutsu (or Kawarami or whatever it is) to switch herself and one of the bells, sending the bell back to Sasuke and her to Kakashi. She couldn't do it right off because with enough chakra control someone can tell when you're about to switch with something and if they're touching that something they can cancel the jutsu(So says me).
As for telling Sasuke, I'm not sure she's going to tell anyone yet. I want to have someone find out for the trouble and ease it might bring but I also don't because realistically any village for pump for as much information as she had regardless of whether she was a ninja or telling them willingly or not.
Ka: I've never heard of that story. It's not happy, in fact it's very ironic. Pretty interesting though, and a little sad.
MoonShadow396: Thank you very much!
On to the show. This one's a little short, sorry. I'm trying to update regularly but I've got a huge research paper I'm working on now too.
Lurking Phoenix: You're getting dangerously close to reading my mind there! Asuka is going to end up well known but she's so plain looking no one will know it's 'That Crazy Suzuki Kid' until it's too late to run.
D-ranks suck ass.
They are boring, nothing but chores that civilians are too lazy or old to do themselves, pawned off onto poor genin who need the money and don't get a say in what they're going to do.
I had a plan to get out of these though.
Oh yes, I had a plan.
"My petunias! You awful children, you've ruined my garden!"
Naruto cried out as a broom smacked his face. "Hey!"
"We got all the weeds out!" I shouted, jumping over a hurdled flower pot, "Mission accomplished!"
"My dog! What have you done?!"
Sasuke looked entirely too innocent. "We took him for a walk."
"Why is he covered in maple syrup?" our client shrieked.
Naruto shrugged. "We took him for a walk in the syrup factory
We left dodging another broom.
"Dear god, my baby!"
Kakashi looked up at the ceiling lazily. He's been gone for the last hour, during which we had duck taped the little five year old brat to the ceiling.
Our teacher just shook his head.
"Asuka," Kakashi began carefully, "Why is Tora crying?"
I looked down at the weeping cat before shrugging. "Sasuke said the genjutsu was harmless."
"Why?"
"We were supposed to clean the river, the fish were in the way."
"Why put them in the Hyuuga compound?"
Naruto tilted his head innocently.
"Because they already had a fish pond. We just gave them a few hundred more."
"The rivers are clean Iruka Sensei. We still completed our mission."
He looked like he wanted to hang all three of us over a well.
"You were supposed to repaint the house."
"We did."
"Bright orange?"
"They never said which color."
"You were supposed to paint the house."
"We did, we even used the color they gave us for it."
"It was supposed to be the outside of the house."
"We still did what they told us to."
"By pruning roses they didn't mean cover them in prunes."
"How were we supposed to know that?"
"Asuka."
"Yes?"
"You're doing this on purpose aren't you?"
My smile was sickeningly sweet.
"I have no idea what you're talking about, Static Man Sensei."
He sighed.
"Since you've been banned from all D-rank missions in the village," an unhealthy twitch had begun to form above Iruka's eye, "There's no choice but to give you a C-rank."
Naruto cheered, Sasuke smirked and Kakashi was smiling behind his mask. I kept my hands behind me, all wide eyed innocence.
Iruka's glower warned me he could see right through it.
As far as I was concerned the sooner we got our first C-rank the less likely it was going to be that disastrous Wave Mission. Let someone else take it.
Bullshit. The world is bullshit.
Tazuna was staring down at us, a drunken flush covering his cheeks.
"These brats are supposed to be ninja? Some little girl and a runt?"
"Hey!" Naruto shouted, "Don't call Sasuke a runt!"
I stepped back, closer to Kakashi and shook my head. This was not how it was supposed to happen.
As we followed Tazuna out of the building to get our supplies dread wrapped around my heart and my feet turned me to the hospital.
I needed to say goodbye to my mom and pack up.
I wasn't ready.
I had to wonder, was this world set on a path that no amount of knowledge could deviate it from?
If so, why was I on Team 7 instead of Sakura?
Nothing made sense.
My head was starting to hurt.
