Sasuke's POV:

No way... I was told that she...died

(Flashback)

"Akari, do you really have to move?" I asked. She nodded. She was one of my only friends I had at that time. Even though she was barely 7 months old, she knew as much as a 2 year old. It was going to be lonely around here, especially since Itachi joined the ANBU. He never has time to play with me anymore! Akari got up and took a few shaky steps, but she tripped...

AND FELL IN THE KOI FISH POND!!!

I immediately got up and looked for her. She can't swim! She'll drown! Suddenly, she was out of the water. I looked beside me. It was Itachi! He looked at me and softly smiled. "That was a close one, don't you think?" He said. Then, Akari started laughing. Huh? Why was she laughing after she almost drowned? Slowly, Itachi began to laugh as well. Soon after, all three of us were laughing to no end. I wiped a few tears from my eyes.

Those were the good days.

(End Of Flashback)

I stared at her in shock. The same silver hair...pale yellow eyes...two silver triangles under her eyes...it was her. My cousin, Akari Uchiha Hatake. I hugged her and cried. Not all of the Uchiha Clan had been wiped out. We were the last survivors, and I will do anything possible to protect her.

Even if it means my own life will be taken away.

Akari's POV:

After the reunion, we went out to the training ground Kakashi told us to go to. Knowing him, he'll probably come late, then make some sort of bullshit excuse, so I just took a nap while waiting.

~Ze TiMe SkiPe~

Someone threw a kunai at me...did he get here? I opened my eyes. Oh, he did come. I got up. "Doing the bell test?" I asked. He nodded. " Taijutsu only." He said. "Fuck you." I said, annoyed. "Well, the last time we had a spar that wasn't with you only using taijutsu, I ended up in the hospital for a month." He deadpanned. I thought for a moment. "Good point." I said. He sighed. "3, 2-" Before he could finish, Naruto charged at him. Baka. The scene ended with a kunai to the back of his head. "I didn't say start yet." Kakashi sighed. "3,2,1, Go!" We jumped up into the trees. I immediately concealed my chakra and presence, and made my heartbeat, breathing, footsteps and all movements undetectable. Sasuke was in another tree, Sakura was under a bush, and Naruto...

I facepalmed. He just fucked up. That stupidity of his knew no bounds. I went deeper into the forest to calculate all possible strategies and outcomes. My strength isn't offense, it's speed and stealth. I would have to get those bells by speed. I started heading towards Kakashi. That was, until I heard a screech that FUCKING EARAPED me. Sighing, I went to go see what was wrong with Sakura. Genjutsu. I woke her up. "Want to team up?" I asked. She declined. "I only want to work with Sasuke." She said. I gave her a few kunai and shuriken before leaving. "Don't get caught again." I said. Next up, Sasuke. I found him, only to see that Kakashi had used the headhunter jutsu on him. I got him out, and asked again if he wanted to team up. Again, he declined. I sighed. Lastly, Naruto. I cut the rope he was dangling from. Same question. Same answer. I got up and looked at Kakashi. In a flash, I was on the other side of him, with all three bells in my hand. I looked at them.

I'm too nice for my own good.

I transported the bells into the other's hands. They all slowly came back into the center. Then the bell rang. Perfect timing, I mused. We all went towards Kakashi. "Why do we have the bells?" Sakura blurted. "It's because Akari gave them to you." Kakashi replied. They all turned to look at me. "Then that means you won't pass!" Sakura said. I gave her a closed eye smile. "It wouldn't matter if I passed or not... I'm far above the rank of genin anyways, so I don't have a problem with repeating." I told them. Then, Naruto and Sakura tackled me in a hug. Unfortunately for them, I still had something else to say. "I may have given you the bells... but whether or not you pass is still up to Kakashi."I said. They all looked at Kakashi. He glared at them. "You... all fail, except for Akari." He said. They all stared at him in shock. "Think. Why would we put you in three man cells? Teamwork. Akari offered you all a chance to work together, but you all refused. Even after you refused, though, she decided to give you the bells, letting herself be tje one that failed so you could become genin. Only she understood the meaning of this test. Eat up. I'll give you a second chance after lunch, but only on one condition. Don't feed Naruto. He goes to the pole because he tried to eat before the test ended." Then he poofed away. I got up and cut the rope holding Naruto. "He said that we couldn't feed him, but he never said he couldn't feed himself." I explained. Then, I gave him my lunch and walked away to take a nap. I wonder if my parents were half Nara...

Nah, never. I'm just picking up too many habits from Shikamaru.

~DeM TiMe sKiPeZ~

Fuuuuuuck... who's shaking me... I opened my eyes. Oh, Kakashi. "Let's go. They all passed." He said. I groaned and got up. "When is our next mission?" I asked. "What's the point of asking? You won't come anyways. It's a D-rank mission." He deadpanned. Probably catching Tora. I wish I killed that demon a long time ago...."Hn...yeah, I'll sleep in on that one." Damm Uchiha genes...
