Disclaimer: I dont own naruto - but I do own Kameera, Rin, Rara, Calael, and Kira- oh, and Kohaku
"Kameera! He's coming you way!" Kohaku yelled, and I prepared myself for the attack. Right as I was about to be hit, I dodged and I missed- only by inches though. I flipped in mid air, and kicked the guy in the gut- sending him flying into the ground.
"Nicely done," Rin complemented, as we all leaped onto the ground, in a circle around the guy. But then- poof- and he was gone.
"Shadow clone!" we all exclaimed, and were instantly on the alert.
"Crap!" the little voice exclaimed," Why'd he have to be a shadow clone?!" I looked left-then right- then above- he couldn't be behind me, or Kohaku or Rin would see him.
"Must be below!" I exclaimed, and punched the ground as hard as I could, sending a shockwave and ripping apart the ground.
"Found you…Kakashi sensei," I smirked, as he looked at me with a wide eye.
"Very good," Izumo sensei said, appearing beside me.
"Dang…how'd you do that?" Kohaku asked me, looking amazed and shocked.
"I don't really know- it seemed natural I guess," I answered and he shrugged.
"At this rate- you'll become a Jounin by the time you're eighteen," Kakashi said, walking up to me. I stared at him with wide eyes- I couldn't believe it…was he serious?
"You're right Kakashi," Izumo nodded, and my attention switched to him.
"Are you serious?" I asked," I mean- I'm only a Genin…there's no way I can become a Jounin…they're for the elite ninja's…like you Kakashi sensei." Kakashi seemed to smile beneath the mask- and I could tell that he was actually serious about me possibly becoming a Jounin.

"Izumo tells me you done wonderful in practice today Kameera," Asuma says as we walk around the village.
"I guess I done alright," I shrugged.
"Must have been better then just 'alright'," Asuma smiles," He says that he and Kakashi both agree that you could become a Jounin in the future." I slightly blush, and mumble unintelligible words, not knowing what else to do. Asuma laughs and I can't help but smile. I don't know what I'd do without Asuma. Without him- I'd still be alone, roaming the streets- or worse, dead.
"Well- I have to go," Asuma says as we approach a series of rooms," I'll see you later."
"Ok, 'night Asuma sensei," I smile, and he waves as he walks up the steps into the building. I begin to walk away, and then hear a voice behind me.
"Jounin, huh?" I turn and see Kabuto leaning against the wall, leg propped up. He smiles at me, pushing off from the wall, and joins me. We walk together, then I finally am able to find my voice.
"Not that I don't want you to- but why are you walking with me?" I ask him.
"I don't really know," he answers," Just figured I have nothing else to do- so why not walk with a beautiful young woman like you." I stop in my tracks, which causes him to stop and look at me.
"Why do you keep calling me beautiful? That's the second time you've done that," I say and he cocks his head to the side, and slightly smiles.
"I say it because it's the truth," he finally said, but softly. I saw that look in his eyes again- the look that said he was hiding something, but that just got me more intrigued.
"No one's ever called me that since my sister," the little voice in my head said sadly, and I kept looking at Kabuto.
"What?" he asked, and that look in his eyes disappeared. I shook my head, and looked up at the sky. The moon was out, and I realized it was late.
"I have to get home, Kira will be getting worried about me," I say, and begin to walk away.
"I'll see you another time?" Kabuto says, almost hopefully.
"Yeah…sure," I reply, nodding, and then continue on my way.
The next day I was walking around and I saw all the kids from other villages here to take the Chuunin exams. Then as I was walking, I saw one grab a kid from Konoha by the shirt. That's when I recognized who the kid from here was.
"Konohamaru," the little voice in my head says, and my feet quickly take me toward them. I see a rock shoot out from the tree above them, and the guy holding Konohamaru let him go. We all looked up at the tree and saw Sasuke. Konohamaru fell to the ground, then turned around- saw me- and ran to my side. I held him close and stared at the guy who had held him by the shirt.
"Why don't you get down here and let's see who's stronger?!" he exclaimed, and Sasuke was about to answer, but then another voice intervened.
"Enough Kankuro." We all were stunned as we looked at the other side of the tree and saw a red-headed boy standing upside down on one of the branches.
"Gaara." Kankuro and the girl with him both breathed, and the red head-Gaara obviously- jumped down from the branch and landed smoothly on the ground.
"Let's go," Gaara said unemotionally, and turned- walking away. The girl and Kankuro followed.
"Are you alright Konohamaru?" I asked him, and he nodded. I gave him one last hug, and then continued on my way. I spotted Kabuto up ahead and immediately turned around to walk the other way. Sadly though, Rara grabbed my arm and spun me around- walking with me the other way- talking to me about something. Then I realized she was talking about the Chuunin exams.
"Im so excited! I get to take part in them this year- along with you and Rin! Sadly though Calael has to wait till next year- turns out Iwashi sensei wants his team to wait a year- just like Guy sensei done. Turns out his team gets to take part in the exams this year," she said happily, and I nodded," Oh! There's Rin! Bye Kameera!" She skipped on ahead, leaving me alone- but I knew I wouldn't be alone for long.
"Hey." I didn't have to look to know who that voice belonged to.
"Hey Kabuto," I answered, and he came up beside me and we walked together.
"So- what was your family like- the one before Kira and them?" he asked me, and I felt my stomach plummet.
"Great- he had to bring them up," the little voice said, and out loud I answered," I had a sister, mom, and dad. My dad walked out on us when I was one. My mom died when I was three. Then, my sister took care of the both of us. She died when I was seven. I was alone for a year before Asuma sensei found me and brought me here." I found swallowing hard, and took a couple deep breaths.
"I'm sorry," Kabuto said, and I looked at him. He had a truly sorry look in his eyes, but then it was replaced by that 'hiding something' look, then that too, disappeared. Kabuto looked up ahead, and then stopped.
"I have to go- my team wants to practice before the Chuunin exams," he said," See ya later." I watched as he walked away, feeling a little left out. My team was practicing on there own- trying to touch up on things they weren't that good at. I didn't have much to do though- I memorized everything I read- and you already know about my abilities. Sighing, I continued walking- alone.
