Chapter 9

Pain shot through Kakashi's body. 'I've never felt such a pain.'

'Neither… have I.' He heard. 'I can barely… even think.' It was Nikiya's voice.

'Do you want me… to take more?' He thought to her.

'No. But how would you do that anyway?' she asked.

'There is a Jutsu over us now. We share feeling, thought, and soul.'

'That's why there's such a pain in me. I had a Jutsu over me so that I wouldn't feel the pain of the torture Itachi put me through. Why was it released?'

'The poison was spreading through your body and the Jutsu was blocking the antidote.'

'Oh. It seems as if it's subsiding. Maybe a little.'

'Yeah.'

'I could've handled the pain myself. You should have asked me before you did this.'

'I knew you'd say no.'

'Really? Well then I might have to…'

"KAKASHI! COME ON, YOU BAKA! WAKE UP!" Tsunade shook Kakashi awake. He gasped and looked around quickly. "DANG IT, KAKASHI! DON'T SCARE US LIKE THAT!" Tsunade yelled.

"Headache…" Kakashi mumbled. He looked over at Nikiya. She was sleeping in the bed. She sighed and opened her eyes slowly.

"Kashi…" Nikiya murmured.

"You've been here for two days and you've put us through this much trouble. Here's your antidote." Tsunade tossed a glass vial to Nikiya. "Jeez. I'm going back to my nap now if you don't mind!" Tsunade said. She placed her hands together and disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Nikiya giggled. "My head hurts." she said, grabbing her head in pain. When she let her hands fall from her head she spoke again. "So, that Jutsu, was that the one we were working on so long ago? We wanted to infiltrate some place. I can't remember and I suggested the idea of that Jutsu An improvement on the mind transfer Jutsu I guess. Right?" Nikiya asked before drinking the antidote.

"Not really. Your body is in a sleep like state. Once you're awakened the Jutsu is released. Oh, and you can't control the other person's body I don't think. That was the first time I tried it." Kakashi replied.

"Don't Sasuke and the rest of your squad have a lesson?" Nikiya asked with a yawn.

"Dang! I completely forgot about it. I'd better get moving. Wanna come?" Kakashi said. He was walking around his room grabbing all of his equipment and putting it on. "I'm going to put them through another test. I did the bells for their first lesson so I'm going to try that again. Only this time, if you're up to it, you'll be carrying the bells. Without them knowing it of course." He continued as he strapped on his shuriken pouch and grabbing 2 small, silver bells off the table.

"Are those my old earrings that I always used to wear?" Nikiya asked with surprise.

"Yeah."

"Stalker!" Nikiya yelled jokingly. Both of them laughed. "I'd like to come, but I need to take a shower and get changed. I haven't had a decent bath in a long time."

"Make sure you can move quickly and easily. Naruto can be a little… hyper. He's fine if you know where to dodge and watch out for his thousands of clones. You definitely don't want to let him hit you though. He can throw some pretty good punches." Kakashi explained. "Sakura will probably be too afraid or obsessed with Sasuke to do anything but she is very bright and a very good strategist when put to the task and has been trained by Tsunade for the past 3 weeks so I don't know what else to expect from her."

"I can throw some pretty good punches myself. You won't have to worry about me. Be back in a little while." Nikiya said.

She left the room and dug through the bags of clothes that Tenten had given her the day before. She unpacked them into the dresser that stood on one side of the room and grabbed a dark red one sleeved shirt and a pair of black cargo pants. Nikiya took a quick shower, pulled on the clothes she had chosen and looked through the shoes Tenten had given her. She pulled on a pair of red flip-flops and walked over to Kakashi.

"I don't have any weapons." She said. "I feel almost bare without them. I miss my sword. I didn't have it with me that night."

"I know. You left it here. It's still sitting right where you left it." Kakashi said as he handed her a shuriken pouch.

Nikiya strapped the small black pouch to her leg and walked out to the den. Her sword was sitting on a table on the far side of the room. She grabbed it and unsheathed it. She then ran her finger up it a few times and put her finger in her mouth when the sharp blade created a very small slice in her skin.

She sheathed it once again and rubbed her hand over the scabbard. It was a dark blue with silver lacing over it. She took the silver belt and latched it over her waist at a slant down to the left where the sword rested on her hip.

"You're not going to use that on them are you?" Kakashi asked.

"Of course not! Kakashi! How brutal do you think I can be?" Nikiya said, shocked.

"Very. Just not with most people."

"It's intimidating. Got to make a good first impression. I don't think I ever really knew Sakura and Naruto you know." Nikiya said with a small laugh. "Better get moving." She gave Kakashi a hug then tugged his mask down and gently kissed him. She lifted his mask back over his lower face and grabbed his headband from his hand to tie it over his left eye. "There." She ran into her room, grabbed a small bag, and ran back. "Let's go."

Kakashi and Nikiya walked out and jumped up to the rooftops. They ran towards the training grounds and stopped in the trees. Naruto was jumping up and down while Sakura was standing a few feet away from him rubbing her temples.

"Naruto seems more hyper than normal." Kakashi said as they watched Naruto do a flip off of one of the three posts in the center of the training grounds.

"Yeah. I've been watching him for about an hour now. He's been going crazy since before I got here. He takes a drink out of that cup every 10 minutes about. Maybe he's on crack." Sasuke suddenly came up behind them and sat down on the branch next to Nikiya.

"Sasuke, you don't take crack by drinking it. You either breathe it in or inject it." Nikiya said to her brother.

"Yeah I know. But maybe he found another way."

"Come on, we don't want you guys falling behind on training." Kakashi said, interrupting the siblings' conversation on drugs. He jumped down from the trees and walked towards Naruto.

"Kashi! Matte!" Nikiya called. She jumped down from the tree and ran over to Kakashi. Sasuke followed.

Naruto was bouncing up and down in place saying rhythmically, "Dattebayo! Dattebayo! Dattebayo!" loudly.

"What happened to him?" Kakashi asked Sakura. She looked like she was about to kill something, particularly Naruto or Kakashi.

"He discovered his new favorite drink. And guess what it is." Sakura said angrily.

"What?" Nikiya asked.

"COFFEEEEEEEEEE!" Naruto suddenly screamed at the top of his lungs. He ran at a tree and did a triple back flip off of it.

"No." Kakashi said with a hint of fake fear in his voice.

"Oh believe me, if I could have kept him from finding it, I would have. He caught me drinking it and instantly stole the cup. He was in love with the drink the instant he took a sip."

"Kashi? Do you want me to calm him down?" Nikiya asked quietly.

"How are you intending on doing that?" Kakashi asked suspiciously.

"Guess you'll just have to trust me." Nikiya said playfully as she pulled out her sword and twirled it on her fingers lazily.

"Fine. Do what you like. Sasuke, Sakura, head for the trees. I don't know what's going to happen." Kakashi said as he walked towards the edge of the circle. Sasuke and Sakura followed him.

"ALRIGHT, YOU MAGGOT!" Nikiya yelled. She sounded like she was going to kill him. Naruto suddenly stood very still and turned towards her.

"What do you mean, 'Maggot!?' 'Ttebayo!" Naruto said angrily.

"I mean that that's all you are, a greasy, slimy, fly larva!" Nikiya retorted.

"Oh no. She's not calming him. She's making him worse." Sakura said.

"Just watch." Sasuke said softly. He was watching his sister intently.

"Wanna go?!" Naruto challenged.

Nikiya merely smirked. "If that's what you really want." She said innocently.

Naruto lunged at her. She easily slid out of the way. He hit the ground face first. Nikiya sheathed her sword and lunged at Naruto. He grabbed her fist easily and tried to flip her over him to slam her into the ground. Unfortunately for him, Nikiya was faster. She flipped herself over in the nick of time and slammed him into the ground.

"I just realized something." Kakashi whispered to Sasuke.

"What?" Sasuke replied.

"No weights." Kakashi said simply.

"That means…"

"Yeah. She's going way easy on him. Probably evaluating his ability level before knocking him out."

"Probably. She could be out of his sight right now."

"Exactly."

Naruto dodged a few kicks and punches from Nikiya before being slammed into the ground by a clone that she had secretly made before he had recovered from the last injury received.

"Don't bang him up too bad, Nikki! We still have training!" Kakashi called.

"Oh right! Sorry, Kashi!" Nikiya replied before tying Naruto to a tree with a string attached to two kunai. "I tired him out a little. Is that okay?" Nikiya asked.

"Perfectly fine." Kakashi replied. Naruto, tied to a tree, suddenly disappeared in a puff of smoke.

"Not a chance, hyper active knucklehead." Nikiya said just before stepping out of the way of Naruto's tackle. He slammed into the ground, once again face first.

"Dangit! Why can't I hit you?! DATTEBAYO!" Naruto yelled.

"You're too slow." Nikiya replied. She placed her foot on Naruto's back. She pulled her sword out again and yawned as she twirled it on her fingers. Sasuke, Sakura, and Kakashi all walked out to her.

"I had forgotten how good you were." Sasuke said in awe.

"Me too. And you were holding back." Kakashi smiled.

"She was holding BACK?!" Naruto screamed.

"That's right, pipsqueak. I could've beaten you to a pulp in 2 seconds flat. But did I? No." Nikiya said with a smirk. "Hey, Kashi, got any weights?" she asked.

"I don't. You'll just have to hold back during training today. Either that or don't take part." Kakashi said.

"Not take part?! How could I not take part?!" Nikiya said mouth agape.

"Alright, alright. Naruto, Sakura, this is Nikiya." Sakura nodded respectfully while Naruto just glared. "So, do you guys remember the bells?" Kakashi asked. All three genin nodded. "Well then… GO!" he called. Kakashi jumped away. He lifted his headband as he ran side by side with Nikiya.

"Why are you using your sharingan?" Nikiya asked.

"Naruto was holding back you know. Also, it's two on three. I like having the advantage." Kakashi said as they ran through the trees.
