Mayumi walked over to her teammates slowly; she felt the need to turn and run with the glares they gave her.

She looked at them nervously, "What's wrong?"

"Where's your dad Mayumi-chan?" Naruto asked.

She shrugged, "He told me that it'd be awhile."

"But he should have come with you!"

"Naruto-kun, he's an old person, he needs time to prepare for these kinda things."

"So then he'll be here soon?" Sakura asked, not wanting to be left out.

"Mayumi, did you even talk to Kakashi?"

Her mouth dropped open, "Sasuke-san, of course I talked to my Otou-san."

"So then he'll be here soon?" Sakura asked again, angry with being ignored.

"Sasuke-san, I talked to him I swear! It went like this: I woke up and walked out of the kitchen after I ate. Otou-san was reading his naughty book again. So I, on a spark of curiosity went over and started to read it from behind him. I soon realized that it was a bad part with two guys. So I then stared him down. He got annoyed and asked me what was wrong and I told him-"

Sasuke covered her mouth with his hand, "Enough, no one wants to hear the rest of that."

Mayumi made a face, how did he know what she was going to say? Did that mean that Sasuke was physic? Or was he just really good at guessing what she would say? Physic, it was the only choice that made sense. He didn't know her well enough, wait...if he was physic wouldn't that mean that he could read her thoughts right now? Mayumi stepped away from him. He glared at her. She tossed her arms up in defeat. He wanted to read her mind that bad then who was she to try and stop him?

"Mayumi-chan, what are you doing?" Naruto stared at her with an odd look on his face.

"I can't tell you Naruto-kun, Sasuke-san might kill me if knew that I knew his secret."

Sakura glared at them, she was really annoyed that they had ignored her, now it was her turn to talk and get Sasuke's attention.

"Ummm, Naruto, could you come here."

The blonde's face brightened and he walked over to her, "Yes Sakura-chan?"

"If you do me a favor, I'll let you buy me some Ramen."

"Sure Sakura-chan! Anything, what is it?"

"Could you please ignore Mayumi-chan for awhile."

"But, Mayumi-chan's my friend."

"She'll be fine Naruto, she's been talking to Sasuke-kun hasn't she?"

Naruto made a face, "Yeah..."

"So then she'll just keep talking to him."

Mayumi stared at Naruto's back while he talked to Sakura. Sasuke walked over to her wanting to know what Sakura was telling Naruto. She looked at the dark haired boy then stepped away from him quickly. Okay so she wasn't all that sure about letting Sasuke read her thoughts.

"Mayumi, stop moving away."

She glared at him, "No! I don't want you to read my mind!"

He made a face, "I need to stop talking to you."

He walked away from her and over to Sakura and Naruto.

Mayumi glared even harder at his back. Stupid, emo, gay, physic, Sasuke. With her hands clenched into fists she walked over to Naruto. At the moment it just wasn't a good idea for her be next to Sasuke. It was easier just to ignore the gay physic.

"Hey, Naruto-kun. Wanna race to that tree and back?"

He didn't answer her.

"Naruto-kun, is something wrong?"

Nothing came from the blonde boy's mouth.

Sasuke glared at Naruto.

"Naruto-kun, this isn't funny, what's wrong?"

…Nothing.

"Are you ignoring me?"

...He moved away from her and sat next to Sakura.

Her eyes teared up slightly, "Naruto-kun please don't ignore me."

Sasuke huffed angrily and grabbed Naruto by his collar, "Answer her!"

Mayumi slapped Sasuke across the face. Just enough to leave a slight red mark. It wouldn't bruise and no doubt be gone in a few minutes; but that didn't stop him from touching his cheek and her grabbing her throbbing hand.

"Don't grab Naruto-kun like that! He didn't do anything to you!"

"But he did you!" Sasuke snapped.

"Yeah well mind your own business."

Naruto watched the two of them argue back and forth. He hated himself for ignoring Mayumi but it had got Sasuke a slap across the face...he might have to ignore her more often. But still, it was eating him alive because of the fact that he had almost brought her to tears and now she had turned it to anger and was using that against Sasuke.

"I was trying to get him to talk to you so that you would shut your trap!"

"Yeah well I don't care what you were trying to do! You didn't have to pick him up like that!"

Sasuke glared at her then looked away, "Annoying.

Mayumi did the same, "Gay physic."

Naruto wanted to laugh at her but he knew Sakura would get angry and not go with him for some Ramen.

Sakura frowned at the look on Naruto's face. She really didn't care for that look. It told her that he wanted to laugh at the other girl, and she wasn't about to be ignored again. Besides, she'd slapped Sasuke right in front of her, that could not be forgiven! (Wow I'm really making Sakura sound like a bitch...sorry!)

Mayumi sank to the ground and huffed angrily. Why was her team so mean to her? Now she really wished she was Ino, but then again it could be awhile before she seen Ino again. That didn't make her too happy but there wasn't to much she could do about it.

She heard a sudden shout of laughter and turned to Naruto.

"I'm sorry Sakura-chan but I just can't do it!" Naruto laughed.

Mayumi smiled at him, "Naruto-kun?"

"Yes?"

"Wanna race?"

"Sure Mayumi-chan!"

Naruto walked over to were she stood and got ready to race the girl. Mayumi smiled and raised her hand. The boy waited for it to come down so that they could start running, it never did. He looked over at her wondering why she was waiting so long. Her lowered as soon as he looked at her and it came down across his face when it did.

Naruto stared at her shocked.

She glared at him, "Even though I won't let Sasuke-san hurt you, doesn't mean that I won't get back at you for ignoring me Naruto-san."

"M-Mayumi-chan...I'm sorry."

Mayumi huffed and turned her glare to the other female. She didn't understand why she herself was losing her temper so easily. It wasn't like her at all. She took a deep breath trying to calm herself, sadly that didn't help to much with Sakura glaring at her.

"Sakura, stop."

The pink haired girl nodded knowing better then to not listen to Sasuke. Mayumi's cheeks flushed with her anger. Just who did Sasuke think he was!

*Naruto's p.o.v*

Wow Mayumi-chan looks pissed! I don't know what it really is but her eyes are kinda creeping me out! They almost look black, but they normally are a light purple...I wonder what's got her so angry? It can't be the fact that I ignored her can it? I scratched the top of my head...why was I her friend again?

*Sakura's p.o.v*

Why did Sasuke-kun have to ruin it? I was making her sooo mad! That or Naruto was...is. But still! He always stops me! It's not fair, just not fair at all! Crap! I have to pee! I know! I'll get Naruto to walk with me to the bathroom! He won't turn me down!

*Sasuke's p.o.v*

What the hells wrong with Mayumi today? Not that I care but still...it's going to be hard to train if she won't cheer up. I might be able to cheer her up if I try hard enough...but it could cost me.

*Mayumi's p.o.v*

Just who did Sasuke-san think he was! He stepped on that poor little fly! That could have been Henry's cousin! I just might have to hurt him for that! Oh and Naruto-san, that butt munch! He definitely dropped down on my friends list! He's lower then Sasuke-san!...Putting him in third...Man...I need to get better friends if my new best friend is Ino-chan and right after that Sasuke...

*Normal third person*

"Naruto would you come with me?"

"For what Sakura-chan?"

"...I have to use the..."

Naruto nodded, "I guess."

"Oh and Naruto, if you look...I'll kill you!"

"O-Okay Sakura-chan!"

Mayumi glared at Sakura. If she was going to try and get Naruto to stop talking to her again she was going to get very mad.

Sasuke sighed, at least he didn't have to be completely embarrassed. He stood to his feet and grabbed Mayumi by her arm. He growled as he pulled her into a hug. Man this was completely stupid!He would hate to see the look on her face right now. He cringed, she'd probably hit him here in a minute.

Mayumi's eyes were wide. She really hadn't been expecting a hug from Sasuke. He and Sakura were the last people she thought would give her a hug. But she didn't pull away. She couldn't place her finger on it but...wait a minute.

"Hey, Sasuke-san?"

"What?"

"Why are you hugging me?"

"Cause you needed to calm down."

"But your gay...shouldn't you like...pat me on the back or something?"

Sasuke tossed her to the ground, would she ever stop thinking he was gay? Probably not.

"Sasuke-san that wasn't very nice!"

"Hn."

"Why did you do that?"

"..."

"Okay fine be that way."

Mayumi stood up to see Sakura and Naruto walking back. Naruto stopped next to her looking tired, Sasuke crossed his arms not wanting to think about what had just happened, Sakura crossed her arms and huffed angrily, while Mayumi went off into her own world oddly calm.

"Hey guys, good morning!"

"You're Late!" Naruto and Sakura yelled.

Mayumi looked and smiled at her Otou-san nervously, he did deserve that.

He walked away from them all and started to set up for their training. He sat an alarm clock down and sat it up.

"Okay, it's set for noon."

The four genin stared at him with curiosity.

"Here are three bells," Kakashi held out three bells.

"Okay...so what did you name them Otou-san?"

"Mayumi-chan I didn't name the bells."

"But you introduced them...so they must have names."

Kakashi rolled his eyes, "Okay, this one is Bob, this one is Hana, and this one is Kakashi the second."

Mayumi made a face, "Those are horrible names Otou-san."

He shook his head and continued, "Your task is to take these bells from me before the times up. Those who don't get a bell by noon...get no lunch. I'll not only tie you to one of those stumps, but I'll also eat right in front of you."

Mayumi's mouth dropped, "Otou-san that's mean!"

"You only have to get one bell, so one of you will definitely be tied to the stump...and the person who doesn't take the bell fails. So at least one of you will be sent back to the academy."

They all made faces.

"If you want you can use shurikens and kunais. You won't succeed unless you come at me with the intent to kill."

"But you'll be in danger!" Sakura shouted.

"Otou-san your being a poopy-head!"

"Your so slow you can't even dodge a blackboard eraser! We'll definitely kill you!" Naruto added.

"In the real world those with no talent often bark the loudest...Well ignore Mr. Deadlast and start when I say."

Mayumi took a step away from Naruto making her bump into Sasuke. She really didn't like the look on Naruto's face!

It all happened so fast she could hardly tell what was going on. Naruto pulled out a kunai and charged at Kakashi. Sakura quickly moved away from Naruto not wanting to get hit. The next thing they all knew Kakashi was behind Naruto holding him by his forehead protector and held his hand with the kunai in it to the back of Naruto's head.

"Calm down, I haven't said start yet," said Kakashi.

Sasuke, Sakura, and Mayumi stared at Kakashi in wonder. Each one thinking about what had just happened.

"Well it seems that you're finally ready to come at me with the intent to kill. So you've finally acknowledged me?" Kakashi questioned. He laughed, "It seems like, I'm beginning to, like you guys."

Sakura's face still look worried, Sasuke smirked, Naruto smiled, and Mayumi paid no attention.

"Okay, lets get going, ready...Begin!"

The four disappeared leaving a baffled Mayumi to try to figure out what just happened.

"Ummm...Naruto-san? Sakura-baka? Sasuke-san? Otou-san?...Why am I all alone."

Sasuke ran over to her and pulled her into hiding, "Now shut up."

She nodded. This wasn't going to be as easy as she had thought it would be.
