Hide's POV

It was the next morning after my reunion with Kakashi-kun and my interesting encounter with Gai. The sun was just peeking over the hills, covering the entire lands with veries of oranges, yellows, and pinks. I was still asleep as the soft glows just beginning to invade my room when,..

"HIDE-CHAN! RISE AND SHINE TO THE POWER OF YOUTH!"

'What the hell?' I shot up from my bed, taking the covers with me.

"COME ON HIDE-CHAN, WAKEY WAKEY FOR EGGS AND BEACEY!"

'Oh God, don't tell me, PLEASE dont tell me,.."

"EH, SHUT UP YE MOOK! ITS 6 IN NE MORNING!"

"SORRY ABOUT THAT FELLOW CITIZEN!"

I looked out the window to confirm my fears. It was Gai standing out side of my house doing squats. When he finished his last set, he looked up at the window and waved at me. 'Damn him, waking my up.' I simply gave him the peace sign and walked down the stairs, letting the chill morning air rush all over my body, waking me up even more. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Gai's POV

It was around 4:00 when I woke up. It was so great meeting Hide-chan yesterday, I could barely sleep. 'I wonder if she'll what to spar with me today. She may be shy with new people after so long. I think I shall do the gentalmenly thing by helping her first by getting aquanted with my team.' After a nice big breakfast, 200 hundred push ups, sit ups, and chin ups each. I took my morning shower, brushed my teeth and finished getting ready for the day. I took one last glance in the mirror. Sadisfied with my manly features, I felt the house.

I jogged down the road towards Hide's house. It was only 5 miles away so I knew I'll get there in 30 minutes. As I jogged, I seen a little coffee shop just opened up for the day. It was about 5:30 and some people, exspecially shinobies cant function without a cup of coffee. 'I bet Hide-chan will really appreciate it.' Yes, I could only image it.

Thought image!

I arrive at Hide-chan's house, knocked on her door and there she is, waiting for me. She was in a soft blue gown, hair flowing, and she's eyeing my manlyness.

"Oh Gai-kun, you've brought me coffee and bagels. You are the sweetess man I have ever met and the most handsom ninja in all of Konoha."

I scratch the back of my head like it was nothing, playing it cool. "Oh me? Nooo, it was nothing. And I'm not all that am I?"

She then wraps her arm around my neck pulling me in closer. "Oh Gai-kun, dont be so shy. Your the most handsom man in all the world, even more so then Kakashi."

Then Kakashi pats me on the back. "It's true Gai, that's why I wear this mask. I know I could never compete with you in your good looks."

Hide-chan starts pulling me in closer. "Oh Gai-kun, the fact that you brought me coffe and bagels makes me want to fall in love with you. Yosh!"

I closed my eye to meet her sweet lips with mine as our love blossoms for one another. Slowing pulling away, I opened my eyes to look upon my beauty,...Kakashi.

"Yo."

"AHHHH!"

End Thought Image!

I shook my head. 'Oh God, please let it be a nightmare!' I looked around and found myself on the cold ground with Kakashi hovering over me. "Ka-kakashi!"

He gave me a questionable look then lending me a hand, he pulled me up. "Gai, as afraid as I am to ask, what are you doing?"

"Oh me, I was,(cough)..I was going in to grab a coffee." and pointing to the shop.

"You don't drink coffee. So, what are you really upped to?"

I folded my arms, "If you must know Ka-kashi, Im going to visit Hide-chan and invite her to spar with me today."

"Are you sure you want to fight her. I never even bet her, even in my peek. Plus, as I remember, she is as far as a morning person as you are as a do-nothing person."

I thought about what he said for a moment. 'Even if she wasn't a morning person then, she could be one now. Then again, if she wasn't and I wake her up I should have at least a peace offering.'
I noticed that Kakashi was still there. "I'll take my chances Ka-kashi." (Author's question: Did anyone noticed that Gai talk's like William Shatner when he played as Captan Kerk from Star Trek. Just wondering.) I started walking to the door but paused. I scratched the back of my head and turn toward's Kakashi. "Uh, Kakashi? You wouldn't happen to know how she likes her coffee, do you?"

After Kakashi told me half hazel nut and half French vanilla cappacino, I got two X- large cups and a few different kinds of bagels, just to be safe. After safely arriving infront of Hide's house, I thought a nice easy wake up call would make her more cheery in the morning.

"HIDE-CHAN! RISE AND SHINE TO THE POWER OF YOUGTH!"

There was no anwser so after a minute, I tried again.

"COME ON HIDE-CHAN, WAKEY WAKEY FOR EGGS AND BEACEY!"

Then I heard her neighbor open his window. I was going to greet the man but before I could,

"EH, SHUT UP YE MOOK! ITS 6 IN NE MORNING!"

"SORRY ABOUT THAT FELLOW CITIZEN!"

Then he just slammed the window. He was right, it was 6 in the morning. I was one of the very few people in the fire country to wake up before even 7. 'For punishment, I shall do squats until Hide-chan awakens with the power of youth burning in her soul,...or at least I see her out of bed. After a ten squats, I glanced at the window and saw Hide looking down at me. I stopped to wave at her, she gave me the peace sign, something I haven't seen in a while. 'She's so full of youth!'

I had the bag of bagels and Cup holder in each hand. I heard the sounds of the dozen locks opening. I felt my heart beat faster. The moment of truth approaching. I shut my eyes, and pushed the sugary sacrafices forward silently praying she doesn't kill me. "Good morning Hide-chan, my do you look as lovely as ever!" "Gai-kun, is that some sort of joke." "Wha-"

I finally opened my eyes, and almost wished I didn't. Almost. There stood Hide, in the door way. Her long hair was messy as she tried to comb it out with her light blue gloved hands. Her pale toned body only covered by a lacey powder blue bra and matching boy-shorts with millions of tiny laced in flowers everywhere. I felt dizzy for all the blood deside to rush straight to my face,..and a different, much lower part of me to. Trying to shake my head to rid myself from the unyouthful imaging probing my mind. I focased all my concidetration on her eyes. As hypnotic as they were, they showed a great deal of anger.

"Gai, you better have a good reason for waking me up."

Maybe this was a bad idea. 'No, that's no way to think!' "I was just thought that I could bring you your morning coffee. And a few delicious bagel too." She looked at the steamy object in my hands. I could tell she was pondering wither to let me in or not. Then without notice she turned and sat herself on the couch, giving me a nice, plump veiw of her rear as she did this. I started feeling dizzy again.

Hide's POV

Gai basicly skipped in while shutting the door with his foot and sat right next to me. "So, which one was mine?" "Both of them. I don't drink coffee myself but I though an extra one wouldn't hurt either." He gave me a bag of five hot fresh bagel and five different types of cream cheeses and five different types of jellies.

"Oh wow, Gai-kun, you didn't have to."

"Oh it's no problem at all."

"How much do I own you?"

"What? NO! No, you don't owe me anything?"

I was spreading sweet cream on the chocolate bagel with one of the plastic knives, "You wake me up, bring me breakfast, and somehow you know how I take my coffee. You treated me with BBQ last night and asscorted me home, brought me candy and flowers, in which I could tell you hand picked them, plus you helped clean my house without complaining. You mean to tell me you did all of this out of the goodness of your heart and you want absulotely nothing in return?" I eyed him as I bit into the bagel and took a nice long drink of my first cup.

"Alright, you caught me. There is something I want from you."

I waited to hear it as he looked up and smiled.

"Would you meet my students?"

'He cant be serious?' I looked at him giving me the thumbs up. 'He's serious.'

"Gai-kun, your an idiot!"

Gai sat there and pouted, he gave me the saddest puppy dog eyes I ever fell victim for.

"Listen, if you wanted me to meet your kids then you should have just asked. It would have been easier and a lot cheaper. I would've said yes."

Gai jumped off the couch so fast I thought he would have cut into a different time-line. He had a roaring laugh.

"In that case, come Hide-chan! There is no time to waste, for as the sun rising we shall rise also with the power of youth!" He grabbed my hand and started dragging me to the door.

"HOLD IT! Do I even LOOK ready to go outside?" Gai stopped and did look. Then sheild his eye but not his bright red face.

"Opps, sorry Hide-chan. I'll wait right here while you get ready." 'Jeez, how could I not remember her in her undergarments!'

I ran up stairs to get ready. After I was done, Gai and I eat the rest of the bagels. He took the jellies and I took the sweet creams. Then after I chugged both cups, we went toward the training grounds.

"Sooo, Gai-kun. Tell me a little about your kids."

"Well lets see, first there's Hyuuga Neji. He's a genius, with organ crushing moves, like the 64 psalms. Then there's Tenten. She's a true weapon's expert. I believe she was the only female in her class to graduate. And finally, there's Lee, my adorable student. He had absolutly no talent whatsoever. But we turned it around to working on making him the greatest tai jetsu specialist ever, he'll even surpass me."

"He's lucky you know."

"What do you mean."

"Lee, the determination to work so hard. It's something I'm truly enviest of."

Gai stopped and looked at me. "And why is that?"

"Because, when you are given power, your then blinded by the good fortune of your strength, only asuming its enough so you get careless and eventually lose what you gain. But if you work so hard for something and you succed, then its truly yours and no one can take that away from you, no matter who it may be."

Gai and I was silent as we continued our walk. Once arriving, I seen the three teenagers, all around 15 or maybe 16. Gai waved at them and only his smaller clone waved back.

"Good morning my youthful students! Today is a special day, everyone, this is our guest, Ms Hide-chan."

"Good morning kids, your sensai kidknapped me."

Gai started to blush and laugh as he scratch the back of his head. Actually, I like making him blush, I should more often.

"Wait a second!", Neji stepped up. "Are 'Yumi' Hide. The legendary Black Dragon?"

"Jeez, you make it sound like I should have a monument. But yeah, I am."

Gai seemed to be a little confused. "The Legendary Black Dragon?"

Lee then jumped in. "Yes Gai-sensai, have you not heard of her?"

Then Tenten stepped closer. "Come on Gai-sensai, you know. She's legendary, she saved the village over 14 years ago from the demon known as Jamonshi and was the leader of the Ambu Black Squad at the age of seven. She's my hero!"

Gai looked at me then back at his students. "Well, how was I suppose to know?"

"You guys know I'm right here."

Gai then wrapped an arm around me. "Yes, am I wanted to introduce you to my team. Neji, Tenten, and Lee."

"Yeah, nice to meet cha, Gai do you mind?"

He kindly removed his arm before I had to break it. "Alright team, lets train! Hide-chan, would you like to train with me?"

"Erm,.."

"Pleease Ms Hide-chan. Pleease train with Gai-sensai!"

I looked over at Lee, he was giving me even bigger puppy dog eyes than Gai. 'Son of a bitch! They work as a team!'

"Alright, alright! Fine, I'll train with Gai. Just cool it kid, your killing me with cuteness."

Lee jumped and hugged me real tight giving me a quick thank you, he ran off to his teammates.

I looked towards Gai, "Alright, lets train."

He nodded as we moved to the center of the field. We got in our fighting stances and we started.
