Chunin Exams: Festival Part One

Suna's Festival

Sunagakure's temperature dropped dramatically at night much to everyone's relief. The stars came out of hiding and happily danced in the sky, reflecting the civilians and shinobi on the ground.

The streets are illuminated by strings of lights and lanterns hung everywhere. The air was filled with different smells as vendors lined the streets selling all sorts of food, handing out samples to the crowd and game stalls were filled with prizes.

Everybody was roaming the streets laughing, eating and joking around with each other while children ran excitedly from stand to stand buying treats and playing games.

Shinobi were scattered around some relaxing, chatting with each other, many eating and drinking, some playing games, and others simply sat around watching the festival.

The three Kages were walking around congratulating the participants and winners as well as chatting with civilians and enjoying the food and atmosphere.

Mabui, Darui, and Konomi were wandering around looking at the different stands and decorations that lined the streets.

Each had plates of food in their hands and were chatting happily with each other.

On the other side of the festival Itachi, Sasuke, and Shisui were sitting on a bench eating their food as well.

"Nii-san when I'm older I'll be just as great as you!" Sasuke said excitedly.

Itachi smiled down at his brother and nodded, "Yes I know you will."

Beside him Shisui huffed dramatically, "How come you never want to be like me?" He asked waving his arms around.

This succeed in making Sasuke laugh and even Itachi chuckle.

Sasuke ran over to where Shisui was sitting and hugged him tightly, "Shisui-nii you know you're one of the best ninja in our clan and I wanna be like you too!"

Shisui stood up straighter, going into his "hero" pose and smiled "Well that is true… I am one of the best ninja in our clan." He says while wiggling his eyebrows at the siblings, causing them to laugh again. Shisui ruffled Sasukes hair and sent him back over to his brother.

They started eating their meals again when suddenly Sasuke stood up causing the two others to stop eating.

Sasuke cleared his throat dramatically and declared "Okay! I've decided what I'm gonna do, from now on I'll try my best to be the best ninja I can be and do everything in my power to protect the Leaf and the Uchiha Clan! Just like you big brother and you Shisui-nii!"

Shisui and Itachi shared a look and started clapping as Sasuke bowed. "That's a great plan Sasuke! I know you'll be a great ninja!" Shisui said.

Itachi nodded along "Yes! I'm proud of you little brother! Do your best and you'll succeed no matter what!"

Sasuke grinned happily at the two ninja he respected the most.

After they were done eating they decided to walk around and play some of the games the stalls had.

Soon they came across a game where you had to throw the fish shaped balls into the shark's mouth. They all wanted to play and Sasuke went first, he got the first two fishes in the shark's mouth but he threw the third with a little too much power and it ended up bouncing off the shark's nose and sliding across the floor, stopping at someones feet.

Both Itachi and Shisui tensed while Sasuke gulped nervously, it was a cloud shinobi- more specifically it was her.


Author's Note:
