Alright... new chapter... I have a feeling this story is going to be a hundred or so chapters long...
OH WELL. YOU'LL JUST HAVE TO READ IT THEN!
Bwahaha.
"Xeala wake up!"Sakura angrily shook Xeala, who was sleeping like a rock, "Come on Xeala! Wake you lazy ass up!" Sakura yelled, and Xeala's eyelids fluttered.
"...five more minutes..."
"YOU SAID THAT A HALF HOUR AGO!" Sakura yelled into her face.
"And I shall say it again, five more minutes..." Xeala said drowsily, then closed her eyes.
"UGH! SOMEONE ELSE WAKE HER UP!" Sakura stomped away. Naruto looked to Sasuke, who had arrived looking somewhat disturbed.
"Okay! Fine I'll do it!" Naruto yelled loudly, drawing attention to himself.
"Good," Sakura said, sitting down on the grass, then admiring Sasuke from where she sat.
"Xeala... wake up..." Naruto said, poking the side of Xeala's head. "Xeala! XEALA OH MY GOD LOOK THERE'S A GIANT BEETLE EATING YOUR SIDE OF THE BEDROOM!" Naruto yelled, and Xeala jumped up.
"WHERE I'LL KILL IT!" Xeala ripped a kunai out of her bag in a split-second, looking around for a giant beetle eating her side of the bedroom... though she was about a mile away from the house...
"Haha Xeala you fell for it!" Naruto said, laughing obnoxiously.
"...NARUTO!" Xeala began chasing Naruto in circles and such around the training field, until Naruto ran straight past Sasuke, and Xeala stopped short, glaring at the emo one.
"Naruto, stop running around, it's annoying," Sakura said snobbishly. Naruto looked to her sadly.
"YOU'RE LATE!" Xeala yelled, and they all turned around to see Kakashi walking towards them.
"Well, a black cat crossed my path so I had to take the long way to get here..."
'THAT'S THE WORST EXCUSE EVER!"
"Okay, well, let's get started," Kakashi said, and put a timer on a stump, and pulled out two bells on strings, " it's set for noon. Your assignment is very simple, you just have to take these bells from me. That's all there is to it. If you can't get them by noon, you go without lunch, you'll be tied to those posts, and you'll watch while I eat my lunch in front of you."
Xeala looked around as everybody's stomachs argued against this.
So that's why... Sasuke thought...
He told us not to eat breakfast to make it harder on us... Sakura thought.
"HAHA! THAT'S WHY I ATE BREAKFAST THIS MORNING!" Xeala said happily.
"Wait a minute! There's four of us!"
"... . . ::counts:: YEAH SHE'S RIGHT!"Xeala yelled.
"Well that way, some of you will end up getting sent back to the academy. But there's always the chance that all of you will fail." Kakashi said somewhat happily. Xeala growled, then sat on the ground and started thinking. "You can use any weapons, including shuriken. You must be willing to kill me in order to get the bells. When I say start, you can begin." Xeala contemplated.
Four genins. One jounin. The jounin will always win against a single genin. Maybe we can all take him out... but no one would think about that... I could always get the bells and we'd have two to a person... but that might be counted as failing... so... ah we'll just let it play out as it shall and save the day after.
Naruto charged at Kakashi with a kunai, and Kakashi caught Naruto's hand and had it at the back of his head superfast.
"Don't be in such a hurry, I didn't say start yet. But, you came at me with the full intention of destroying me so, how can I say this, I'm actually starting to like you guys. Get ready, and... start." Everybody except Xeala jumped off in a different direction. "Aren't you going to fly off like them too?"
"I don't need to," Xeala said, then lifted her hands to her eyes, and took out her contacts. Xeala slowly got up, then dusted off her clothes, all with her eyes closed. "Ah it's good to take those out." Xeala said, opening her eyes. "Okay well, I guess I should be gone too." Xeala said, then disappeared almost as fast as Kakashi had caught Naruto's attack.
Naruto appeared in front of Kakashi.
"YOU AND ME! RIGHT NOW! FAIR AND SQUARE! LET'S GO!"
Xeala, lounging on a branch about fifty yards into the forest, giggled, "Idiot!" Xeala folded her arms and looked up at the sky. "Maybe I should go tell one of them..." Frustrated yelling came from the field. "...few minutes..."
20 minutes later...
Sakura ran and tripped over a log. Looking up, down a bitch of a hill, Kakashi was standing and reading his book. Phew... he didn't hear me... I'm safe...
"Sakura... behind you..."
And eerie pitched Sakura-scream came from a bit away. Xeala jumped onto a tree's limb, then look in the direction of the scream. So he went after Sakura after catching Naruto? He's just going in order of strength! HAH! Now I know his plan! Bwahaha... this is gonna be easy. I'll just get him whilst he goes after Sasuke. HAHAHAHA! Xeala gritted her teeth, then jumped out to a farther away branch. Xeala looked down into the clearing, as Sasuke got pulled under the ground by Kakashi. Kakashi bent down and started lecturing Sasuke. Xeala gritted her teeth. Here's my chance... but... hmm... I might be falling for a trap. Sakura ran out into the clearing.
"O.o SASUKE'S JUST A HEAD WITHOUT A BODY! NO NO NO!" Sakura fainted and fell backwards.
"Hey Sasuke you look like you could use a hand!" Xeala waved from her branch.
"...and a body..." Sasuke bit his lip. Why is she helping me? She was screaming at me a few hours ago... oh... wait... memory loss... haha nevermind... Xeala jumped down.
"You know we're a team for a reason. We're supposed to work TOGETHER. Not go off in every other direction!" Xeala said, glaring her red eyes at Sasuke.
She... she... she has sharingan... she really is... but how... I mean... this makes... no se-stop wandering Sasuke! Keep your mind focused on the task! You have to get a bell!
"You're not gonna get one of those bells on your own. If you could, then you'd be a jounin too. But we're all just genin. We need to take him on together. But after lunch. You idiots don't have the energy to seeing as you listened to him. Now get your ass out of the ground." Xeala said to Sasuke, then proceeded to trying to wake up Sakura. "Grr... Sasuke!" Sasuke finished shaking the dirt out of his clothes, and looked over.
"Hunh?"
"Come bend over her."
"What?!"
"JUST DO IT!"
"...Okay?"
"Good." Xeala grabbed Sakura's nose so she couldn't breathe, which cause her to jolt awake.
"Sasuke you're okay!" Sakura hugged Sasuke, and Xeala attempted to pry her off of him.
"Okay now we're all awake. Now we have to work TOGETHER to get the damn bells! This isn't a game anymore!" Xeala yelled at them.
"What are you talking about?" Sakura asked dumbfoundedly, and Xeala pinned her down.
"You idiot! You're only concerned about being with Sasuke! Can't you tell what this is all about!? This is about getting those bells as a damn team! WE ARE TEAM 7! You people are all concerned with beating the others! Now we just need to make up a plan, and... where's Naruto?" Xeala looked around. " ::anime vein:: STAY HERE AND MAKE A PLAN!" Xeala jumped off to the trees, then saw Naruto hiding behind a rock, attempting to get the lunch boxes.
"NARUTO YOU SELFISH BASTARD!" Xeala tackled him to the ground.
"What!? What did I do!?"
"YOU AREN'T WORKING WITH THE TEAM! NOW YOU BETTER DRAG YOUR SORRY ASS BACK TO WHERE WE ARE RIGHT NOW SO WE CAN DISCUSS THIS AS A TEAM! NOW LET'S GO!" Xeala dragged Naruto back to where Sakura and Sasuke were planning, then threw him into the dirt.
"Okay, we're all HERE. Now let's get this done!" Xeala said, then kneeled down with a stick and began drawing a plan in the dirt.
"Xeala how the hell do you think like that?"
"Because I spent my entire life living outside the village trying to do this, with a bunch of bastard muggers coming at me from every which way. Now are we all clear on the plan?" Xeala said, pointing to the dirt. Everyone looked down, and replied with the same answer.
"Nope."
"AAAGHH!" Xeala grabbed her hair frustratedly, "YOU PEOPLE ARE IMPOSSIBLE!"
"Well, maybe you could explain it to us!" Sakura pleaded.
"Okay, fine." Xeala said, and rubbed her temples. "Now we all know Kakashi is a jounin, so we need to combine all of our strengths together and do this. If we work together, we will all have the bells. Now, like Iruka said, Sasuke rocks and Naruto not so much, so you guys need to combine into a semi-team. Naruto, do what you did before, attacking him from all sides with your shadow jutsu. Then, when you move in, Sasuke, you attack with your kunais and whatnot. Now he's most likely gonna see something like that coming, so me and Sakura will hide in the trees and attack when he gets out of your little traps. Are we all clear?" Xeala said, and they all nodded their heads.
Naruto and Sasuke jumped off, and Xeala caught Sakura's shoulder as she was about to do so.
"Sakura, you need to stop focusing on Sasuke, because he's not interested in anyone right now. Maybe in a few years when we're older though, because he's going to need someone then, but right now, he's faced with a little more than he can handle, so just try to not be such a fanatic about him, okay?" Xeala asked. Sakura looked down, then nodded solemnly. "Okay! Let's go kick butt!" Xeala said, and jumped up into the nearby trees, followed by Sakura.
"Sakura!" Xeala whisper-yelled to her, "over here!" Sakura jumped over to where Xeala was sitting on a bough, pointing out to where Naruto's shadow clones were attacking Kakashi. Kakashi maneuvered his way out of there grasp, and Sasuke flew at him hurling kunais and kicks from every which way, Kakashi barely getting out of this.
"Now?" Sakura asked silently.
"Not yet..." Xeala looked down, examining Kakashi's steps, and for a brief split-second, Kakashi didn't have a foothold, "Now!" Xeala exclaimed, then jumped out of the trees, Sakura doing the same. Xeala jumped onto the grass, then appeared behind Kakashi, who was still dodging attacks from Sasuke and Naruto, and watched as Sakura attacked from an elevated right angle. Xeala ran forward and slid her leg under Kakashi's to trip him, then quickly pulled a rope out from her belt-bag and caught his neck in it, and Naruto held his left arm down and Sasuke held down his right, Sakura grabbed the bells from his hand. Xeala let go of the rope, and Sasuke and Naruto let go of Kakashi's arms. Sakura handed the bells to Xeala, who tied them together. Xeala quickly spun around and put her contacts back in. Kakashi, under his mask, smiled happily.
"Good. You worked as a team to overpower me and get the bells. Excellent." Kakashi applauded, then started again, "Although I highly doubt you all figured this out on your own... so who was the smart one who thought?"
"It wa-" Xeala elbowed Sakura in the side and shook her head as if to say you say it and we'll fail.
"Hm... very well... you all pass." Kakashi said happily.
"ALRIGHT WE PASS! WHOOO!!!" Xeala yelled happily jumping up and down.
"Okay, let's go home," Kakashi said and started walking back.
Next morning to save time and chapter space...
"Sasuke, I'm at point B..." Sasuke said into his headset.
"Sakura, I'm at point C..." Sakura said to hers.
Then a pause...
"Naruto, I'm at point A, believe it!" Naruto said into his headset after the pause.
"Xeala, I'm at po-HEY HOW COME I HAVE TO BE POINT D?!? I WANNA BE POINT C!"
"...Great, the target has moved, follow it, good job Xeala," Kakashi said into his headset.
The team moved behind a line of trees.
"What's your distance from the target?" Kakashi asked.
"We're all 5 meters away and ready to go," Xeala said anxiously.
"Okay..." Kakashi paused for a few seconds, "NOW!"
Naruto grabbed the cat and yelled, "I GOT HIM I GOT HIM!" which started scratching the hell out of him. Sakura looked at it like AW SO CUTE. Xeala looked around like why are we doing this again?
"Can you verify a ribbon on right ear?" Kakashi asked.
"Affirmative, we've got a positive I.D." Sasuke said into his set.
"Oooh so professional Sasuke stop being a kiss-ass." Xeala said, sitting on a stump with her leg over the other.
"...Right... lost pet Tora captured. Mission accomplished."
"CAN'T WE GET A BETTER MISSION THAN THIS! I HATE CATS!" Naruto yelled into his headset, and Kakashi fell over on his side of the air waves.
Back at the village...
"God no wonder he ran away..." Sakura said as the cat was squished by it's owner.
In the Hokage's office...
"Can we get a CHALLENGING mission for once? PLEASE!" Xeala complained as the Hokage read off house chores.
"HOW DARE YOU!" Iruka yelled back, "YOU'RE JUST A BUNCH OF BRAND NEW GENIN WITH NO EXPERIENCE! LIKE EVERYONE ELSE YOU START WITH SIMPLE MISSIONS TO DEVELOP YOUR SKILLS AND PROVE YOURSELF!"
"Oh, so I guess the entire time we went to the academy with you was a waste then, hunh Iruka?" Xeala said evilly.
"NO WAY! I WAS THE BEST TEACHER EVER! ALL OF THE STUDENTS PASSED!"
"Then why can't we go on better missions?"
"BECAUSE YOUR JUST CHILDREN!"
"...oh... oh really?" Xeala asked.
"YES YOU'RE ALL CHILDREN!"
"I'm sure Kakashi would think differently."
The Hokage started yelling at Naruto, who turned around and the group started talking about ramen.
"You want a good mission then? So be it. Since you are so determined, I'm going to give you a C-ranked mission. You'll be bodyguards on a journey."
"OH YEAH!" Xeala ecstatically yelled out.
"Really?! YES!" Naruto yelled as well, then proceeded to asking questions. "Are we guarding a princess? Or some big league counselor!?"
"Don't be so impatient," the Hokage said, "I will bring him in now. Send in our visitor!"
Team 7 turned to the door, and a rude old man made fun of the age of the group.
"And you, the little one with the idiotic look on his face, you can't really expect me to believe you're a ninja!"
"Who's the little one with the idiotic look on his face?" Naruto looked around. Sasuke, Sakura, and Xeala stepped closer, Sasuke the tallest, Xeala slightly taller than Sakura, and two or three inches shorter than them would be Naruto. "LET ME GO! I'LL DEMOLISH HIM!"
"You can't demolish the client, Naruto. It doesn't work that way." Kakashi said, holding Naruto in the air by his hair.
"I am Tazuna, a master bridge-builder and I must return to my country. I'm building a bridge there that will change our world, and I expect you to get me there safely, even if it means giving up your life."
"Oo... harsh." Xeala said, then crossed her arms.
OKAY I'M DONE WITH THIS CHAPTER FOR NOW. I'LL WRITE THE NEXT ONE SOON SO PLEASE REVIEW ASAP DUDES! BYEZ!
