Team 7's 4th member chapter 23
The Chunin Exams Part 1
Seth's P.O.V.
"Damn, who knew that pulling all those weeds could really drive our team apart?"
"Yeah it can be a pain sometimes with those two rivalry." Sakura finished.
"Okay I'm going to report this the hokage."Kakashi said before shushing away. "And I'm going to meet up with my date."Crash added before he went the other way.
"Well I'm going home."
"Sasuke wait…" That got his attention. "I was wondering would you like to get lunch with me?" I had my finger out counting down from 3. 2. 1. "Why are you wasting your time flirting when you could be training? To me you're just as bad as Naruto." I saw Sakura head drop. "Even his skills are better than your." Sakura had hit the ground like a rock after hearing Sasuke had went home. "You can join me and Naruto for lunch we were planning on trying out this newly opened restaurant." I offered to her but she just stood their in denial.
Then I noticed a square rock trying to sneak up on us. "Hey Naruto doesn't that rock seem oddly familiar." I said pointing it out to him. So we moved away from it back and forth it still on our tail. Then we split into two different directions making the rock stop. Giving me time to sneak up behind it. "Where'd they go?" I heard a quiet voice ask. I grab it lifting it off of 4 kids. It was konohamaru and his group. "Nice try you four. I saw clean through it." I declared but under the box was another box. I just kicked the second box off of them. Naruto then came out. "Hey bosses." Konohamaru said. "Why are you trying to sneak up on us?" Naruto questioned. "You said you would ninja with us." "Oh yeah." "So… just what is a ninja doing playing ninja?" Sakura asked with a bit of anger in her voice. Before she popped Naruto right across the face sending him flying into the fence. "What did you do that for?" Sakura had turned away. "You total witch!" That when Sakura's head did a complete 180 he eye's deprived of all care. Her body followed suit before she cracked her knuckles and punched him as well. "What the hell is wrong with you psycho hag." he yelled again.
Sakura was walking away when she heard this. She stopped before turning around she looked pissed. "Run Konohamaru! RUN!" I yelled as Naruto and Konohamaru and gang ran away from the enraged kunoichi. I quickly followed suit. They ran until they bumped into some Suna nin. One was dressed in a black, cat like suit, his face had what appeared to be purple war paint, on his back was something wrapped incloth.
The other had blond hair you could see parts of her fishnet undershirt. Her head band was around her neck. On her back was what appeared to be a giant fan. "Hey that smarks." The nin in the cat like suit said in a very sarcastic manner before grabbing Konohamaru by the collar of his shirt. He pulled his hand back as if he was about to punch him.
"Hey let him go it was only an accident." Naruto said
"Please it was my fault." Sakura had said reinforcing what Naruto said.
"Come on Kankuro put the kid down."
"Oh come on Temari why do you always must ruin my fun?"
"I said put him down." Naruto yelled.
"Then why don't you come make me." the recently name Kankuro taunted.
"You asked for it." Naruto declared before he tried to charge at Kankuro. Little did Naruto know he had chakra strings attached to his foot. So when Kankuro pulled his wrist Naruto fell back. I had caught him. "You know he did ask nicely at first." I said.
"So what are you going to do about it?" "Don't say I didn't warn you." I said before I smoke dashed at him giving him quite the surprise not expecting me to easily slip through his defences. I wound up slapping a paper seal.
His body went stiff and his arms were forced to his sides. Konohamaru was dropped.
"What the hell did you do to me?"
"Don't tell me you haven't heard of seals."
"What? Get this thing off!"
"Konohamaru take your friends and get to your grandfather. That seal is going to explode soon." Konohamaru went wide eyed before he grabbed his gang and ran as fast as his legs could carry him.
"You're bluffing."
"Am I? I suggest you take a look at you your shoulder."
The Suna nin looked at his shoulder to see the seal on fire starting to near the edge.
"Your crazy! Putting an exploding tag on me!"
The flames had completely swallowed the seal the two suna braced themselves for an explosion. But it never came.
Me and Naruto started laughing at the situation. "What the hell is so funny?!"
"And this is why I love the that seal. You really thought you were going to blow up. I might be an ass at times but I wouldn't kill another ninja without good reason."
"Then what the hell did you put on me."
"One of the prank tags I came up with. Designed to restrict movement like if you were tied up and disrupts the chakra flow. Designed to destroy itself after 3 minutes." I had continued to laugh a bit more. I did stop after getting 3 more laughs out.
"Anyway no hard feeling right?" I asked then I got punched in my face.
"Okay I deserved that, and I knew it was coming to.
"Now I have no hard feelings and I liked the fake tag joke. Names Kankuro and this my sister Temari."
"Well it's nice to meet you two my name is Seth and this is my best friend Naruto." I said point at Naruto.
"I take it you're here for the chunin exams."
"That is correct."
"Well I wish you luck but, I do have a question where's your third teammate?"
"And what makes you think he's on my team?"
"I only saw one team from Suna come into the village earlier."
"You're late you were supposed to meet with me and Baki." I heard a mono-toned voice speak. I then heard a loud thump like something just fell.
The two nin had froze in fear after hearing this voice.
I looked over to where is came from It was a red haired nin who was upside down in a tree. His eyes were a very pale light green. He had a tattoo on his forehead that was kaji for the word love. His shirt was read but he had a white strap running over his shoulder. On his back was gourde.
"I'm impressed that you managed to get around his chakra strings. Not many do." The monotone voiced nin congratulated me. He voice sounded like he was very tired like he had slept in years.
"Well It was nice meeting you two but we got places to be so, bye." Temari had said before she grabbed her brother and ran.
I just stood their watching them leave and Gaara vanish.
I then noticed Sasuke getting up from the ground.
"Well that answers what made the thud." I said jokingly.
"Hey Sasuke. Want to join us for lunch?" Naruto had offered the Uchiha.
One minute they go from hating each other to to acting like friends. I will never understand their relationship.
"Fine dobe."
