A/N: Finally updated!
HSWDN: Wazzup peeps. Took a lot of convincing but... I DID IT! Enjoy the chapter, i work hard to get this here now.
Chapter two
I sat brooding in the classroom once again. I knew Kakashi was going to be late so I took the time to calm myself down because I became very annoyed and agitated but who could blame me? I've had one of the most fucked up days in my life and it's still not over yet. Sakura was leaning back against the table on the other side of the isle, glancing at me now and again while Naruto bounced around, peaking out of the door and looking down the hallway outside and groaning and grunting like a whining kid. I knew they were only twelve and I felt bad for being such a bitch to them but it seemed being Sasuke was easier than I thought except the not smiling part… I'll figure out what the hell I'm going to do tomorrow when I actually have to fight Kakashi.
"Naruto, why don't you sit still?" Sakura said with annoyance… Here we go again. I closed my eyes and sighed silently.
"But why is the sensei for our Team 7 group the only one late? All the other groups went somewhere with their new sensei already and Iruka-sensei already went home." Naruto whined.
"That's not very important… Hey! What are you doing Naruto?" Sakura screeched as Naruto pulled a chair over by the door and put a duster between it and the frame as he giggled evilly and even I looked up and smirked at that… Yeah waiting sucks, now I know why Naruto did it in the first place.
"It's his fault for being late." Naruto said proudly as he put the chair back and stood proudly.
"Geez, it's your own fault if you get into trouble." Sakura said with her hands on her hips and I smirked.
"I think he'll fall for it." I said as Naruto and Sakura looked at me like I was an alien and I hn'ed just to seem normal. A hand reached for the door and I smirked as he pulled the door open, popped his head inside and the duster fell on Kakashi's hair. Naruto cheered and laughed while Sakura stuttered and apologised and even I smirked, trying not to laugh… It was so much funnier in real life. Kakashi bent down and picked up the duster, looking at it before humming.
"How should I say this… My first impression of you guys is… I hate you." He said in a thinking pose before just putting it out there plainly. Sakura and Naruto both wilted when they heard this and I just hn'ed.
"It's only because we're kids." I muttered into my hands and Kakashi looked at me strangely… again, I'm not an alien, well I am to this world.
"Meet me up on the roof in five minutes." He said before he left with a poof of smoke and I glared. He's more of a bastard in real life.
"Let's not piss him off even further by being late." I said, getting up and heading down the halls towards the stairs as Sakura shouted after me and Naruto followed. Soon enough we were seated on the steps with Kakashi leaning against the railing and we waited patiently.
"Let's see… Why don't you introduce yourselves?" Kakashi suggested lazily and I suppressed rolling my eyes.
"Introduce ourselves? What should we say?" Sakura asked.
"What you like, hate, your dreams and hobbies… Something like that." He said, placing his hands out to the sides kind of like a shrug.
"Hey, why don't you introduce yourself first sensei?" Naruto asked and Kakashi pointed to himself.
"Me? I'm Hatake Kakashi. I have no intentions of telling you my likes and dislikes. As for my dream… I have few hobbies." Kakashi said lazily.
"So all we found out was his name." Sakura muttered before I smirked.
"Name Hatake Kakashi, genin at five, chunin at six, jonin at thirteen, ANBU captain at age fourteen. Likes miso soup with eggplant and hates sweet things. Former and last student of the Yondaime Hokage and underneath his headband is the dojutsu of my clan, the sharingan." I said clearly as I again got looked at like an alien and I just shrugged, closing my eyes with a hn. "Someone else can go now that we know more about our sensei." I said and I could feel Kakashi's glare on me… Shit why do I have to be so cocky? Maybe it's a boy thing?
"Alright then… You in the orange can go first." Kakashi said, crossing his arms defensively as I opened my eyes again. Naruto sat up straight, fidgeting with his headband and flapping his legs back and forth.
"I'm Uzumaki Naruto. I like cup ramen. But I like the ramen at Ichiraku's that Iruka-sensei bought for me the most. I hate the three minutes I have to wait after I put the hot water in. My hobby is to eat and compare cup ramens. And my dream is to become greater than the Hokages. I'm going to make all of the villagers acknowledge my existence." Naruto said and Kakashi sat calmly before moving his gaze to Sakura next.
"I'm Haruno Sakura. I like well… the person I like is… And my hobby is… well, my dream is to…" Sakura said before squealing into her hands…" I could fill in the blanks. Sasuke, Sasuke, stalk Sasuke and marry Sasuke. I kept my face as neutral as possible but I couldn't help letting a little smirk loose… How the hell can this asshole never smile?!
"And? What do you hate?" Kakashi asked.
"Naruto." She said straight away and with distaste. Kakashi nodded boardly while placing his chin on one of his hands.
"Last guy."
"I'm Uchiha Sasuke… I do not intend on telling what little things I like and what I hate would take the whole day to explain. As form my dream… Well that's a little to hard to explain right now since I don't know what exactly it is at the moment and I don't have any hobbies either." I finished truthfully as Kakashi's eye narrowed at me and the air seemed to get tense.
"Alright, you three all have unique personalities, I like that. We're going to begin a mission starting tomorrow." Kakashi said.
"What kind of mission is that sir?" Naruto asked with an excited salute.
"First, we are going to do something the four of us can do… Survival training." Kakashi said and Naruto seemed confused.
"Why are we going to train when it's a mission? We had plenty of training at the academy." Sakura asked with some annoyance to her voice.
"How do you expect us to work effectively with our lives on the line when we know nothing about each others abilities? That's just asking to die." I said to her as I took a deep and silent breath and let Kakashi explain… I should really learn to keep my mouth shut as Sasuke.
"He has a point there however this is no ordinary training." Kakashi said.
"Then what kind of training is it?" Naruto asked and Kakashi began laughing and I had to smirk because his laugh was amusing, also because I knew what was coming, that's the awesome part of being Sasuke right now.
"Oi, stop laughing like a creep sensei and hurry up and tell us." I almost whined.
"Well I'm sure if I tell you this, I'm sure you three are going to be surprised." Kakashi said with amusement. And I decided to see how far I could piss of Kakashi and beat him to punch line.
"He just thinks it's funny that out of all twenty-seven graduates, only nine will become genin and ninja." I said and I smirked behind my hands, feeling Kakashi's glare at me once again and I raised an eyebrow at him in slight challenge.
"Correct and the other eighteen will be sent back into the academy. In other words, this training is going to be a very hard test with a dropout rate of sixty-six percent… See? You three are surprised." Kakashi laughed.
"No way! I went through so much trouble… Then what was the exam for?" Naruto freaked out and I looked up at the bird overhead.
"That? It just picks out those who are qualified to become genin. Anyway, tomorrow I'm going to determine whether you guys pass or fail at the training grounds. Bring your ninja equipment and meet at five am. Now then, meeting over. Oh yeah, don't eat breakfast, you're going to throw it up if you do." Kakashi warned before he poofed away again.
"Well, see you guys tomorrow morning." I said, standing up and leaving with my hands in my pockets. Thank god that was over I thought as I walked through the academy down to the road again and remembered my way back home… This is going to have to change, I live here now and people are going to look at me weirdly if I ask for directions all the time in a place I supposedly lived in my whole life. I was relaxed again and I knew I would have to spend the rest of my day learning the streets of Konoha and where everything was as well as try to get some training in otherwise I would be screwed for tomorrow and we definitely wouldn't pass and the Kakashi would know something was up with me… Why was I so cocky?
"Oh right, it's a part of my inner personality trait since I still don't believe I'm actually here." I mumbled to myself with my head down as I kicked a pebble along the ground. I made it back to my apartment building and looked at the notice board in the lobby and there was a map there, thank god! I stood there for a while, studying it as best as I could and let time pass me by slowly before my bladder began to get heavy and my stomach growled. I sighed as I headed up to my apartment and walked inside locking up as I pulled off my shoes and looked around once again.
I had always hated silence as I walked over to the TV and turned it on and flicked through the channels quickly… Regular soapies, cartoons, politics with no pictures of coarse, talk about a security risk. A music channel? I left it on there, listening to the music as I went into the kitchen and had a look around, making a mental not as to where everything was before I pulled out a rice ball from the fridge and put it on a plate before my bladder warned me again and I groaned, wanting to cry but without the needy emotion of wanting to cry because this all sucked…. Maybe that was just a girl's thing. I stood up and walked into the bathroom and stared at the toilet like it was taunting me somehow, god this was so embarrassing and somehow gross as I unbuttoned my shorts, the zip making a loud noise in the small bathroom and I gulped, looking at my underwear with a kid like frown and took a deep breath before I pulled both my pants and underwear down, closing my eyes.
My hand twitched with not wanting to touch anything down there yet I really needed to pee. So what, I was an eighteen year old virgin? The only dick I've ever seen was in porn and magazines and I really doubt they all look exactly like that. I opened my eyes, my cheek heating up as I smiled with disgust at myself as I looked down and blinked, my face going blank… It really wasn't that bad now that I look at it, odd but not disgusting like I thought as I let nature take it's coarse and I sighed as my bladder emptied itself before pulling my pants on and flushing, putting the seat down like a good boy and washing my hands before returning to the TV and my rice ball.
I felt like such a dork now that I think about the way I reacted to my own body now and I allowed myself to smile at the thought… I could handle this. It's the ninja part tomorrow I wasn't so sure about. Sure I beat Naruto easily enough but that was all basic self-defence I learned as a kid but I shivered at how I easily slid a kunai out and easily stick it into the clones… It could have been the real Naruto and then what? I'd get charged for attempted murder on a comrade even before I officially became a ninja and then I'd be found out.
Well I was thankful for one thing… At least I didn't wake up in Orochimaru's lair or in the middle of a mission or even the examination day, I would have been totally screwed then, this was the best day I could have woken up to.
I looked at the clock and sighed as I saw the sun going down outside… It was coming up to five in the evening, my stomach full and my bladder blissfully empty as I got up and turned the TV off and some lights on, pulling the curtains across. I grabbed my house keys and my wallet before heading out into the evening air and let my body wander as I put my hands into my pockets and looked around.
I ended up on a strip of a pathway that lined a river as I stopped and my body turned, walking down the streets and onto the dock where I sat at the end and stared down into the water… It was the dock Sasuke would sit at as a kid and sometimes Naruto passed by as well if I remembered correctly. I stood up as the night sky began to take over and scowled as I thought about what Shikamaru had said earlier.
'Sasuke, has been training for most of your life, even before the academy and considering how you neatly dodged Naruto falling on you this morning, I'd say your body remembers but not your mind.' Is what he had said as my hands began to blur through hand seals before I naturally took a deep breath and held my hand up to my mouth before blowing a huge fireball out of my mouth as I stared wide-eyed and smirked afterwards… Seems Shikamaru was right but I would still go through my notes before I got into bed as I headed towards the restaurant area for dinner, as I really wasn't in the mood to cook and I headed into the little cafeteria and had a sandwich as I ate silently before heading home once again, ignoring everyone around me like I did in my old life as well, I wasn't exactly liked back there.
I locked up once I was inside and stepped into the shower now that I was over the whole 'I'm male' thing now as well and got dressed into my blue pyjamas as I pulled out a file of school… (cough) academy work and began reading it as it seemed to wake things up in my mind and bring some memories back as well of doing this which really helped me to integrate 'being Sasuke' into my mind as well as being a ninja now as well.
I have to say that other memories began to arise as well… Especially with Itachi and Sasuke's family as I felt something warm and wet against my cheek as I wiped it away and stared at it on my finger… How did Sasuke truly feel about who he was? If the sting in the back of my eyes and the invisible weight sitting on my chest was anything to go by… Sasuke was deeply saddened by what had happened in his life, not to mention the throbbing in my head, remembering the amount of tears Sasuke had cried and it weighed on me like a ton of bricks…
How would I have felt if my loving brother back where I came from killed my mother and sister and I ran in to find them dead on the floor with my brother acting like a completely different person? That struck home as I gasped a sob into the empty room and placed the file down on the bed next to me as I turned over and laid on my side, curled in a foetal position as now not only were my original memories of my father leaving were surfacing but also Sasuke's and it was more than I could handle with the stress I had been carrying the whole day as I cried gently into my pillow, gritting my teeth as my body shook and shivered with gasped sobs.
I flew myself up off of my bed and began fighting an invisible partner… Itachi. I could feel an energy surging through me with white-hot anger as I struck the air with deadly force and gritted teeth still and a growl or grunt of anger and effort. My tears had continued to fall as the face of Itachi changed to my fathers and it began another frenzy of fighting and imagining him begging me for mercy that I never gave until I jumped into the air and twisted, bringing the back of my heel down into his invisible shoulder and landed with a slight shout of pain before I hissed, shifting carefully into a more comfortable position on the floor.
Not one of my brightest moments as I stood up carefully and stretched the hamstring and the back of my heel as I hobbled into the kitchen and grabbed some ice, placing it into a tea towel and hobbling back to bed before gently resting my heel into the ice with another hiss and went to the mind numbing activity of studying until I eventually fell asleep.
