Okay here's a true fact. I have no clue what I'm doing, I'm making this up as I go! Please don't hurt me!
Disclaimer: Still absolutely not owning Naruto, such sadness
Warning: Language and a chance of questioning mentality, also Ino when she's mad
3rd Person P.O.V.
Both Lily and Jasmine stared at Asuma blankly. They could vaguely sense that someone was whining and complaining, but honestly, they were still trying to compute what the jounin had just said. It was something to do with being made into... BLOODY SOLDIERS OF WAR!
Lily let out a terrified squeak and Jasmine swayed slightly on the spot. She had never fainted properly before, does faint-headedness mean you're going to faint? Well they both have faint in it so it might be true. She was pulled out of her thoughts and her possible fainting by Lily slapping her across the face. Snapping to attention she glared at Lily and rubbed at her reddening cheek.
"Well?..." Both girls turned to Asuma who was looking at them expectantly. Looking past the hopeful jounin, the girls noticed they had a very observant audience. Shikamaru and Chouji were both looking at their sensei sceptically, was he mental to ask these two non-ninjas to suddenly become ninjas of leaf? Naruto was looking on expectantly, gazing at the two girls with hopeful eyes. Kakashi was reading his book, but his eye was staring unnervingly at the girls. Sasuke was glaring at them sullenly and sporting a slight bruise on his face from where Jasmine's legs drilled into him. Jasmine couldn't help but smirk superiorly at him, that quickly dropped when he flashed the sharingan at her. Finally Sakura was the source of the whining that had been going on for the course of the conversation. She was bitching loudly about, 'rag-tag tomboys,' and 'they hurt Sasuke-kun!' Lily winced slightly at her loud, piercing voice that seemed to shake the ground she was standing on.
"Girls, are you going to answer or not?" Asuma was still staring at them expectantly, "what?" Jasmine blurted out intelligently, Lily wanted to slap her again so bad. Asuma sighed, "you girls will be special circumstanced ninjas. We'll find you a sensei to teach you the basics and you will be placed onto teams whose teammates are out permanently." Lily frowned, "out permanently?" "They're either injured fatally," Asuma paused slightly, "or they're dead." Both girls flinched slightly, Lily was worrying about the fact that they could most indefinitely die. Jasmine easily spoke her concerns, "wait you said teams, as in plural!" She glared accusingly at Asuma, "you'd separate me and Lily into other teams, wouldn't you!" Jasmine sounded slightly hysterically by the end, she had placed herself in front of Lily with arms slightly outstretched, as if they could protect Lily.
Kakashi snapped his book loudly, startling everyone out of the tense atmosphere. He tucked his book away, "well as much as I would love to see this drama play out. Me and my cute genin have to do some lovely missions to help the village!" He eye-smiled at team 7 and ruffled both Sasuke and Narutos' hair, ignoring the indignant replies he got in return. "c'mon my cute genin, we've got some D-ranked missions with your name all over them." With that team 7 was led away by the slightly scruffy scarecrow sensei. Before they rounded the corner Naruto waved at them brightly, the girls responded with hesitant waves of their own. Sakura glared at them and made a cutting gesture across her throat, Lily replied with a middle-fingered wave that flustered Sakura slightly. They chuckled and turned back to see they still had an audience of three males,
Asuma was still looking at them expectantly, both Chouji and Shikamaru were looking nervous now. "What's wrong guys?" Jasmine asked Chouji and Shikamaru, avoiding the question Asuma was silently asking. Chouji glanced at her before tugging Asumas' sleeve to attract his attention. Asuma turned to Chouji, "what's wrong Chouji, really?" Chouji frowned slightly, "Asuma-sensei we were meant to meet Ino at the training ground ten minutes ago." Asuma dramatically paled, he grabbed both of the girls he swung them onto his back. "Hold on tight girls," Asuma turned to his present genins, "we're going to have to roof jump in order to get their quick enough. Well quick enough that Ino will only blow her head, not us." Jasmine couldn't contain her snickers, "you're gonna get in trou-ble~" Asuma ignored her and with a sudden burst he leapt to the rooftops.
Both Lily and Jasmine couldn't contain the gasps that escaped their mouths, the sudden speed made everything look like it was blurring slightly. Surprisingly the landing barely made the girls jolt in their duel-piggy-back position, as they continued their way over Konoha's rooftops, Jasmine felt the now familiar warmth swirl around her. The warmth was emitting from in front of her, mainly from the direction of below Asuma. A blue wisp drifted off Asumas' feet and slowly faded into nothingness, Jasmine suddenly realised what that warmth was. She would've slapped her head, but she was currently using her hands to hold onto a super-speeding ninja.
The warmth was chakra. How could she have not realised?! Having previously no chakra it was a completely foreign substance to her. Chakra suddenly being in her system had probably made her hypersensitive to chakra in general. Jasmine knew most medic-nins and genjutsu masters were sensory types, tracking nins also used chakra sensing to track and find their targets. Chakra was said to be unique to each person, they all had their unique feel and quirks. When people mould chakra they have certain quirks that affect how they mould the chakra. They might push chakra easily through their arms, but while pushing chakra through their legs it might fluctuate at a specific spot. Jasmine hmned to herself, might have to experiment later, see if she could access her chakra. She glanced over to Lily, could Lily sense chakra like she could?
Lily was not having fun. She hated rollercoaster rides, one spin on the Superman escape at Movie World had her nearly blowing chunks. The slight swaying when landing and pushing off felt like a boat rocking in a storm. Her cheeks bulged slightly and she felt herself go green, screw anime comedy! This must be what Natsu feels like on transportation, just bare with it! She swallowed deeply and rested her head against Asumas' back, his presence seemed warm and calm, like a breeze on a summer day. Closing her eyes she decided to rest herself for a moment, it always helped when she was carsick.
Asuma slowly placed the girls on the grass in the small clearing where his team trained daily. Jasmine sat quietly like she was thinking deeply, Lily on the other hand... She was slumped in a boneless heap against Jasmines' back. She was breathing deeply, Asuma grinned slightly, in a deep sleep by the way she wasn't moving a muscle. He adjusted the sleeping girl so she was leaning against a tree, not crushing her pondering sister, He stood up and cracked his back, when all of a sudden a deep chill crept up his back. Turning slowly he saw his third student, Yamanaka Ino, with her newly cut hair now in a bun. She wore her normal clothes, but a dark aura surrounded her and flames were in her eyes. Asuma heard Shikamaru and Chouji whimper slightly as the deranged girl advanced on them.
"Where. Were. You?" She growled out slowly, stalking towards them while rolling up imaginary sleeves. Chouji stuttered something out that was apparently not good enough for Ino, she leapt at the two genins and engaged them in a one-sided brawl. Asuma winced at the fists that cracked into the boys heads repeatedly, he decided enough was enough and intervened.
2nd person P.O.V.-Ino
Ino was royally pissed off. Not only were her teammates late, they were offering up the most pitiful excuses. She released all her anger through her fists, smashing them over and over into her teammates heads. She could've kept going, but she felt someone grab her and lift her up. Shrieking slightly she flailed her fists in the air, "let me at 'em sensei! I'll show them not to come late! Lazy, no-good son of a #$%#s!" Asuma dropped her onto the ground, "Ino. What have we said about language?" Ino glared at him, "to make sure it's truthful and from the heart!" She stuck her tongue out at him and turned in a huff, "why were you late anyway?" Asuma gestured towards the edge of the clearing, "the girls got into a spot of trouble with team 7 earlier on." Ino frowned at him slightly, did they irritate my Sasuke-kun! Better not! She turned to the heap of blue cloth and long hair, two girls were leaning against a trunk of the tree. Walking over to them she noticed that the white haired girl was not moving at all, "ASUMA-SENSEI THE WHITE HAIRED GIRL IS DEAD! SHE'S NOT MOVING!" Asuma chuckled behind her, "Lily's not dead, she just sleeps like she is." Ino let out a huff of breath, who the hell sleeps so still and silently. Turning to the other girl she was met with startling purple eyes right in her face. Ino bit back a shriek, but the black haired girl made no acknowledgement of the blondes' cut off shriek. Ino waved her hands in front of the girls face, there was no reaction. No wait... the girl was twitching slightly and... was that drool?
"SENSEI! SENSEI! WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH THIS ONE?!" Ino felt her sensei amble over, crouching down he stared at the blackette. He hummed noncommittally and waved his hand in front of her face. "I've already tried that," Ino snapped, "what's wrong with her? Is she mentally retarded?" Ino saw Chouji and Shikamaru kneel down to stare at the retarded blackette. "She's asleep," mumbled Shikamaru, Ino looked at her teammate disbelievingly. "Who the #$% falls asleep with their eyes open?!" "Language," chided Asuma-sensei absent-mindedly. He placed his fingers in a tiger sign and began to mould his chakra. At the first flare of chakra the blackette snapped out of her stupor and slammed a fist into Asuma-senseis' face.
"What the hell retard!" Ino screamed as she jumped back from the obviously mental blackette. Said girl chuckled nervously and scratched the back of her hair. Ino stared at her hair, why didn't she see it before? The girls' hair was black with red tips and fringe. The fringe swept to the girls' right and the hair tumbled unrestrained to her bum. Ino couldn't help but let out a squeal, "your hair is amazing!" She hurried forward and grabbed some of the lustrous locks, and was instantly met with resistance. "It needs to be brushed desperately!" Ino rummaged around in her ninja pouch until she found her trusty brush, "you're lucky I always keep my beauty products with me at all times!" The girl looked at her nervously, but nodded slightly at Inos' unasked question. Ino squealed again and jumped around to the back of the girl, she jumped as Ino wrapped her legs around the girls' waist. Ino instantly began to talk as she attacked the girls' hair with her trusty, pink brush.
"So what's your name? Where do you come from? Why is your hair such an interesting colour? Who's the girl next to us? What did you do to Sasuke-kun and his team? Hopefully you just annoyed billboard-brow!"
The girl laughed quietly, it wasn't a giggle like most other girls, it was between a chuckle and a short laugh. "My name is MoonDragon Jasmine. I have selective amnesia so I can't remember where I come from. Uhhh, I don't know why my hair is this colour. The girl next to us is SunWolf Lily, she's my twin. Ummm, Sasuke insulted me when I met him so I punched him in the face. Then Lily and I fought him, managing to hit him once or twice. And who's billboard-brow?-Wait don't tell me! Sakura and I have a mutual dislike for each other, of course I annoyed her!"
Ino pouted slightly, "as if you could land a hit on Sasuke-kun, he's amazing!"
"They did!" Called Chouji from where he was tree walking with Shikamaru, "SHUT UP! NO ONE ASKED YOU FATTY!"
"I'M MOT FAT! I'M JUST HUSKY!"
Ino ignored her annoying teammate and returned to the task of brushing Jasmines' hair. As she finished brushing the red tipped locks became more prominent and spiky. Ino sighed as she ran her fingers through it, nice and soft. "How do you want your hair done?" She asked the fidgeting Jasmine, she got a cute blush in answer, "ah, could you put it in a high ponytail. Thank you very much!" Aww so cute, thought Ino as she rummaged in her ninja pouch for her extra hair ties. She had to stand up to gather the incredible length of hair that Jasmine had, "fringe out?" Jasmine nodded in answer and Ino complied, leaving the red fringe out to sweep to the side. She also left out a single red lock that framed her face on the left of Jasmines' face. Ino secured the high ponytail with a bright purple hair tie and step back to admire her work. Jasmines' tanned skin stood out more with her purple eyes being able to be seen better. Her hair parted on her left side and her fringe stood out against the stark black of her ponytail. The red tipped locks stuck out spiky in a messy way and her hair, although being tied up, brushed her bum.
"Perfection!" Crowed Ino, "now if only we had some clips to help fix that fringe a bit. Two would be perfect!" Jasmine grinned shyly at her, "you shy?" Ino asked quizzically.
"Not a chance," answered a new voice. Ino turned to the now awake whitette that was rubbing sleep out of her eyes. "You're Lily right?" Ino got a sleepy nod as an answer, now was a perfect chance to examine her. She had wavy, white hair that went to the middle of her back. She had on opposite sweeping purple fringe and purple locks. She removed her hands from her eyes and stared at Ino with baleful red eyes. Ino shivered slightly at the hostile stare, but was intrigued by the crimson eyes that stared at her. "You have such beautiful eyes," Ino smiled, she got a surprised but hesitant smile back. Good, that was a start. Ino beamed even brighter, "I'm going to fix your hair now!"
"No."
"I'm not giving you a choice," Ino swung behind Lily and wrapped her legs around her with surprising force. Lily struggled vainly, but slumped in defeat when Ino began to brush her hair softly. Jasmine sat on the ground and watched the rest of team 10 mock spar. Ino was fine with her not talking, amazingly Ino quite liked quiet and both of the girls made the silence comfortable with their presence. Well mainly Jasmine, Lilys' presence was kinda cold and annoyed, but ah well.
Ino finished brushing the wavy locks and peered over Lilys' shoulder, "how do you want your hair?" Lily glared at her and shrugged, "don't care." Ino grinned to herself, free rein yay! She pulled back a large chunk of hair just behind Lilys' fringe and began to plait it. She repeated it to the other side and stepped back to admire her work. Lilys' hair was loose but the plaits kept the hair out of her face, Lily patted her hair softly and nodded begrudgingly at Ino. She didn't mind the hair and that was good enough for Ino!
Jasmine P.O.V.
I sat and watched as Shikamaru and Chouji sparred lightly. They weren't using their clan techniques, opting to instead use straight out taijutsu. Both weren't exceptionally fast, but Chouji was crazy strong! He couldn't land a hit on Shikamaru though, Shikamaru planned ahead easily. Every time Chouji attacked Shikamaru either dodged or used the terrain to strike back at the big-boned Akimichi. Asuma called out stop and the two boys ceased their spar. They were dripping in sweat and shaking slightly, what do you expect! They have been sparring for nearly ten minutes straight. I watched the two pant for a while before I made a decision, "Asuma!" The man turned to me, "yes Jasmine?" I grinned wickedly, "teach me how to use chakra!"
Asuma looked taken aback, "Jasmine it takes time to access chakra. It's hard to sense inside of you, and accessing it will take patience and skill!" I simply smiled in response, "is it hard to sense chakra outside of you? Like other peoples' chakra?" He nodded, "it is a lot harder to do, many people don't bother to learn chakra sensing, but it does take time to learn that after you learn to access your own chakra." I smiled even wider, "this will be easy!" I yelled as I dropped into a lotus position and put my fingers in a tiger seal. I vaguely heard Asuma laugh condescendingly but it didn't matter, I was already meditating deeply.
Back home we had to meditate for an hour before we started our katas, I was use to ignoring everything and sinking into the blissful darkness. This time when I drifted off I searched for that now familiar warming feeling of chakra. I had felt it pulsing through me when I versed Sasuke, I just hadn't realised it yet. I tried to summon up that adrenaline, warming feeling that had coursed through me before. I didn't know how long I had sat there searching for that warmth, when I felt a spark. Retracing back I brushed over the spark again, I felt a small jolt in return. Feeling excited I pushed at the spark. Absolutely nothing happened. Frustrated I pushed at it again and again. I really wanted to blow the spark up now! Then it hit me. I was pushing at a pull door! I carefully tugged slightly at it and I felt it swell slightly in answer. I mentally beamed and in earnest I tugged hard at the spark. Instantly a burning fire swept up me and I heard a screaming in the distance. Thrashing around I tried to put the fire out, the screaming noise was still going on. My throat was hurting even more than my body and I realised that I was the one who was screaming.
2nd Person P.O.V.-Asuma
It had been an hour since Jasmine had declared she would find her chakra and Asuma was wondering how she was sitting there for so long. Lily had joined in with sparring along Ino, honestly that girl had skill, she just needed to perfect her stances and aim. She left herself open too often and overextended her guard occasionally. Ino took full advantage of these flaws and hammered her with quick punches and kicks. Ino seemed to be taking training seriously now, after failing to beat her rival and then the war happened. Asuma knew something had changed to his team then, he knew that all of them had killed, they had to. Asuma was there when Shikamaru took a life, but unfortunately he wasn't there for Chouji or Ino.
As he watched his team and Lily spar he felt a small jolt of chakra behind him. He knew ANBU wasn't watching them, and ANBU wouldn't slip up like that. Turning he saw Jasmine grin slightly, he watched as she looked more and more frustrated. Chuckling he turned back to face the sparring when there was a huge influx of chakra behind him. He whirled around as he heard Jasmine scream in agony, blue chakra was pouring off her in waves and she was convulsing erratically. Asuma sprinted over to her, dropping down onto his knees he went to grab the still screaming girl. As soon as he touched the blue mass of chakra he retracted his had cursing. So much chakra focused in one place could cause chakra burns, Asuma looked at his slightly fried hand and back to Jasmine. How much pain was she in?
He was shoved aside by a hysterical Lily, "Jasmine!" She reached out to grab the blackette, but Asuma quickly slapped her arms away, don't want another person being fried. Lily glared at him, "do something! Quickly!" Asuma nodded grimly and flared his chakra, ANBU and any close chunin and above would have felt the pulse of chakra Jasmine had emitted. They would be on alert and Asumas' flare of chakra would bring them to him.
Barely thirty seconds later a Tanuki ANBU had arrived and was examining the blackette silently. He gathered green healing chakra into his hands and picked the girl up carefully. Asuma blinked at this, not many ANBU could use medical ninjutsu. Tanuki nodded at them before jumping into the trees towards the hospital. Asuma gathered his team and picked up the unresponsive Lily, "guys let's head out after him! C'mon guys!" He yelled when the team stood there silently, "sensei," Ino started quietly, "that wasn't normal was it?" Asuma hesitated slightly before slumping, "I don't know about it being normal, but I do know we have to go after them so MOVE!"
"Un!" His team saluted and they leapt out after the ANBU.
Asuma couldn't help but feel a bit worried, that definitely wasn't normal. Jasmine was going to be okay, she was with the best medical staff the Elemantal Nations could offer. She would be fine, right?
Done!
Yeah it was mainly just another filler in order to explain some crap, get good relationships between each other and stuff.
Why did Ino seem nice 'n stuff?
Well I actually really like Ino. I think she has so much potential and she's generally just kick ass! I think if she saw some new girls in need of beauty treatment, she would go crazy over them.
Why did Jasmines' chakra go crazy on her?
She has never used chakra before. She vaguely felt her chakra while battling Sasuke, but she wasn't accessing it. Her body had only just built chakra coils and core, they were extremely fragile and not used to chakra. Suddenly flooding herself with chakra like that would completely F- up her chakra coils and herself.
Why did Asuma let her access her chakra if she was fragile?
Do you honestly think that Asuma would think that a girl with apparently no ninja training could access her chakra so quickly.
How could Jasmine access her chakra so quickly?
She has never had chakra before so she's hypersensitive to it. She has also meditated before, she would know if there was something different.
So there you go! Another chappie done and dusted.
See you soon! (hopefully)
