Kyuubi
Thoughts
Chapter 3- A few years later…
It's been many years since I was accepted into the Nara household. My new family is kind to me, although obviously their reactions would be very different if they knew what I was.
When my adopted mother found me she was, to say the least, shocked, but thankfully her maternal instinct kicked in and she decided then and there that Shikamaru needed a sister. She fought hard to keep me, against the protestations of my adopted father, Shikaku. He didn't want the trouble of another child around the house.
Typical Nara male. Shikamaru is just the same.
Of course, I went to the shinobi academy. That was where I met Naruto. Naruto is the Kyuubi's jinchuriki.
When he first came into the room I could sense my father's chakra hanging around him. Later on my suspicions were proved when I noticed the way the villagers acted towards him.
The villagers are idiots. They are all completely sure that Naruto is the actual Kyuubi in human form! Such stupidity! As if the great Kyuubi no Kitsune is anything like that blonde idiot!
So anyway, I became friends with Naruto, reasoning that the more he trusted me, the easier it would be to free my father. A few days ago, we all graduated from the academy, all, that is, except Naruto. I of course, was kunoichi of the year. I beat the rookie of the year, Sasuke in most things as well, but I had to settle for Kunoichi of the Year. I had planned that Naruto and I could be on the same team so I could observe the seal more closely and have more opportunities to break it, but Naruto failing was not part of the plan. I didn't think it was possible for the host of a powerful demon to be so weak!
Thankfully, he became a genin anyway and we were put on a team together with Sasuke Uchiha. My new sensei, Hatake Kakashi is rumoured to be a pervert; he'd better not be, for his sake. However, he is supposed to be powerful…
Anyway, enough reminiscing. I have to go and meet my sensei and my team. Something about survival training. What I don't get is why we have to do it so ridiculously early.
I guess a few Nara habits have rubbed off on me. I hate getting up so early. Just too troublesome, as Shikamaru would say.
Kakashi is late.
Several hours late.
He made me drag myself out of bed before dawn to come out here in the cold and put up with the Uchiha's glaring and Naruto's incredible hyperness, and he DOESN'T EVEN BOTHER TO BE HERE ON TIME?
He's going to regret this.
The Uchiha is staring at me again.
He's probably trying to work out why I haven't started fan-girling yet. Hah. We've spent several years at the academy together and he still hasn't worked out that I'm not like the other girls?
I've had enough.
For whatever reason, the Uchiha does not take kindly to me throwing a kunai at his head. I don't know what his problem is; after all, he got out of the way in time didn't he?
He's glaring at me now. Two can play at that game.
I start glaring at him and let loose a little killing intent.
Kakashi-sensei arrives, interrupting our glaring match. I transfer my glare to him as I growl "You're late. You'd better have a good excuse."
He rubs the back of his head and starts telling us that he just "got lost on the road of life" or something along those lines.
"Whatever" I sigh. "Can we just get on with this? I don't want to waste any more time than I have already."
"What's up with you, Tsubomi? You aren't usually this grouchy." Naruto exclaims. I just roll my eyes in response. Our sensei starts explaining about the bell test. Everyone knows that no normal genin could beat a jounin on their own, so logically the test must be about teamwork. However, the fact that there are only two bells prohibits teamwork, and I know nobody on my team would willingly go back to the academy. As you can tell, my time spent in the Nara household has benefited me in some ways. I'm not in my adoptive brother's league, but I'm no idiot.
The test begins. I go to Sasuke first, but he isn't going to cooperate. He thinks it's a trick. In any other situation I would admire such suspicious thinking, but this really isn't the time for it. I sigh and give up on him. Jumping up into a tree, I scout around for Naruto, but it's just too late. The dobe has challenged Kakashi-sensei. Watching him get beaten is painful to watch, but when I see Kakashi bringing out his perverted book I can't stand it. I see red. I HATE PERVERTS!
Leaping into the clearing, I surprise both of them. Naruto pauses for a moment in his taijutsu, and Kakashi-sensei uses that hesitation to use a pedophilic ass-poke jutsu on him. I wince in pity as Naruto goes flying.
I run towards Kakashi, forming hand-seals.
I yell "Shadow possession jutsu!" as my shadow stretches towards him, but he back flips away from it. I sigh. Looks like I'm going to have to get those bells the hard way.
"Fire style: dark flame jutsu!" A black fire springs into life in my hand. I leap up, throwing black flame balls at him, but he evades them all. I finally hit him, only to have him turn into a log.
I WILL NOT LOSE TO A PERVERT, JOUNIN OR NOT!
