Chapter 4: Bell Test? Interesting

Recap:

....I did my nightly routine and went to bed, ready for the upcoming day.

.............................STORY START

It was early the next morning when I headed out but still later than Kakashi told us to get there. I looked up at the sun and it only looked about 7. Kakashi won't be there for another hour or so. I guess I'll get something to eat, I thought to myself. With that I headed to the nearest restaurant, which happened to be a dango shop. I went inside and bought two sticks of sweet dango and left. I continued on my way to the designated spot which happened to be one of the many training grounds in the lead village. Once I got there I noticed that the three idiots were already here. Naruto was laying in his back looking up at the sky sleeping, Sakura was staring admirably at Sasuke and squealing every once in a while and finally, Sasuke was just glaring at the ground. Que. sweat drop.

"Heya. What are y'all three idiots doing anyway? Aren't y'all supposed to be preparing for the bell test?" I asked them as I approached.

"You're late!" Naruto and Sakura both yelled.

" Yea yea. I know but I also knew Kakashi wouldn't be here till later too, so I didn't bother being on time."

"How do you know so much about Kakashi-sensei. I know you said you were a jonin in your old village but that still doesn't explain how you know him already." asked Sasuke. Which I'll admit surprised me because the duck ass hardly ever talks much less to any of us.

"Hmph. Duck ass finally decided to speak ladies and gentlemen. It's a miracle that needs to be recorded. Does anybody have a camera?" I said causing Sasuke and Sakura to glare at me and Naruto to start laughing his ass off, rolling in the ground.

"To answer your question, I know Kakashi because we have been on a joint mission in the past together. The mission lasted a little over a month and a half and during that time we bonded quite a bit. That's all I'm willing and allowed to tell you so I wouldn't bother asking anything else about it...........Do any of you have a plan to pass this because if not I do?" I said

"That actually explains a lot and no. The only plan I'm following is Sasuke-kun's." Do I even need to tell who that was?

I was about to make a retort before I felt a presence in a tree behind me and heard a whoosh coming towards me. I turned swiftly and threw two kunai. One to deflect the oncoming one and the other heading straight towards the intruder. The first kunai hit its target, causing both of the two kunai to veer to the side in opposite directions. The second kunai was three quarters to its intended target before yet another kunai was thrown to deflect it. I crouched in a defensive stance ready for anything while the three behind me were all standing up and looking on in stupefied expressions. I started to hand signs rapidly but stopped when Kakashi dropped from the tree.

"Always still on guard aren't ya Hana? " he said

" Always have been" I said. "You have to be in this world and this line of work."

"True. Hana, I already know you know what this test is about and that you execute it perfectly. I have no doubt about that. So I'll just have you help me today, if that's fine with you"

"Sure thing Kakashi." I said with a closed eye smile.

"You're late!" Sakura and Naruto yelled again except towards Kakashi this time.

"Well, a black cat crossed my path so I had to take the long way around. Then I wanted to test Hana to see if she still stay in her toes even after a year of me not seeing her." Kakashi said.

"Wow Kakashi. I see you're still using those lame excuses aren't you. Oh well, I'll just have to break you of that habit again won't I? And I almost forgot the game you and I always play" I then laughed evilly.

Kakashi sweats drops and sighs before clearing his throat and speaking again. "Well then, let's begin"

He takes out a black alarm clock and sets it on one of three posts in the clearing before turning to us and speaking.

"Here then it's set for noon. Your assignment is very simple." He takes out two silver bells. "You just have to take these bells. I'll have one and Hana will have one. Although, I should probably warn you that Hana is stronger than me and she can be a bit vicious. She won't be as easy as you think. That's all there is to it" he say before jingling the bell then handing one to me.

I look at the bell before smirking and looking to Kakashi who looks back with a questioning stare.

"Hey Kakashi, let me see your bell for a second."

"What are you gonna do?"

"You'll see just wait a moment."

I started to do hand signs before slamming my hands on the ground. "Summoning Jutsu!"

A very large puff of smoke appeared from the spot I had hit. When the smoke cleared one large male wolf and a smaller female wolf stood there looking around at the new surroundings. They were two of my five summoning partners. The one on the right was always my go to partner for everything. He was the large wolf with pure black fur named Daichi. He specialized in taijutsu and was a very strong wolf. Although his speed had something to be desired. The other one, the small one, was female. She had almost pure white fur except for the gold patches around her eyes and on her ears, named Emi. She was specialized in ninjutsu and even though she was small she made up for that in her cunningness and speed. They were both full grown and I usually summoned them together because they made up for each other's weaknesses and worked well together. Daichi was reckless and headstrong and liked to run into battle while Emi was calm and calculating. She liked to observe her opponent the ought Daichi before joining in and taken the enemy down together. That was just how they worked.

"Cloning Jutsu!" I had cloned the bells, so now there were two more and I switched them all up so nobody would know which was the real ones. Not even me.

"Heya Daichi, Emi. Long time no see."

"Yea it has hasn't it darling." a gruff voice that belonged to Daichi said as he looked up at me.

"Well I would like you to meet my new team. I'm sure you remember Kakashi. Those three over there are Naruto, Blondie; Sasuke, Duck Ass; and Sakura, Pinky."

"Oh how wonderful it is to meet new people. I'm Emi it's very nice to meet yall and I can't wait to work together later on. And it's nice to see you again too Kakashi."

"They look weak, anyway I'm Daichi. Sup Kakashi"

I swear dropped at the two. They've always been that way.

"Hey Emi, Daichi. Its great to see yall too. But why did you summon them Hana." asked Kakashi as the others nodded in agreement.

"Well I thought it would be interesting to have them help us. I cloned the bells so we don't know which is real or not and the two of us and my wolves can each have one and they'll try to take them like you said, but they won't know if they got the real ones or not. I figured I'd spice it up a bit."

"Alright then" he agrees.

So I passed out the bells to the four of us. The two wolves had them in their teeth while Kakashi and I put them on our belts.

"Before we begin I must warn you three that Emi is super fast and cunning and Daichi is strong and very good at taijutsu. Okay now we can begin" I said.

The attention then turned back to Kakashi as he finished explaining the assignment. "if you can't get a bell by noon then you'll be tied to those stumps and go without lunch and you'll watch while we our lunch in front of you."

"Wait a minute there's three of us. How come there's only two real bells?" Sakura asked.

"Well way one of you will be tied to those posts and ultimately disqualified for failing to complete the mission. That one goes back to the academy. But it ain't like we're gonna go all out so yall should be able to get the bells if yall get the point of this test. Just use your brains together." I said hinting at what the test actually meant.

"But then again all three of you could flunk out too. You can use any weapons including shuriken. If your not prepared to kill us, you be able to take a bell." Kakashi finished.

"Those weapons are too dangerous Sensei." Sakura stupidly said.

"Hahaha, especially since you couldn't even dodge that eraser." laughed Naruto.

"Class clowns are usually the weakest links. you can safely ignore them. Lowest scorers. Losers. When Kakashi says start you can begin." I taunted Naruto a little before signaling Kakshi to begin.

Naruto growled before grabbing a kunai and charging at me like the stupid idiot he is. Baka, I thought as Kakashi and my two wolves stepped away from me so as to not get caught in the brawl. I swiftly grabbed his and and turned him while turning his hand so the kunai pointed to the back of his own head.

"Don't be in such a hurry. I didn't say start yet. Also I told you Hana wasn't to be underestimated. She wasn't a jonin for nothing you know..........but you came at her with the full intention of destroying her so, how can I say this, I'm actually starting to like you guys. Get ready aaaaand...start!"

With that everyone jumped away leaving me alone in the clearing after I had let Naruto go.

........................Meanwhile.............

In a room somewhere else in Konoha the Hokage and the three idiot's academy sensei, Iruka, were talking.

"Iruka what did you wish to see me about? I don't think you came here to merely drink tea and chat, did you?" Asked the Hokage.

"Naruto has been assigned to squad 7. The jonin in charge of that group, just how tough of a trainer is he." asked Iruka.

"Kakashi you mean. You are concerned about him."

"I am. I heard a rumor about his training methods."

"Hmmm" the Hokage then pulls a green book out of his robe and placed it in front of Iruka on the table.

"What's this?"

"All the trainees who've ever been assigned to him. Those who passed and those who failed"

"May I?" Iruka asks as he reaches for the book before scanning through it.

"This is. This is........."says Iruka shocked.

........................Back with Hana

"Ninja must know how to conceal their movements and hide effectively." I heard Kakshi's voice ring out somewhere among the cluster of trees.

I looked around and couldn't physically see any of the three idiots but I could still sense them. I think they were all targeting me thinking me to being the weakest link. But their dead wrong. they'd have better luck with Emi than the rest of us. I looked around again, Sakura was under a bush and Sasuke was up in the branches of a tree. Naruto was...........right in front of me. For what seemed to be the umpteenth time that day, I swear dropped at his actions.

"You and me right now, fair and square. Lets go!" declared Naruto.

Of course that idiot. Hugh, I sigh. Just what am I gonna do with him.

"You know Naruto, compared to the others, your a big idiot." I said.

"Oh yea. Well your a bigger idiot than me for taking me on, Hana"

I just sighed again and started twirling my hair while he charged. I reached into my pouch causing Naruto to stop, thinking I was going to get a weapon.

"Shinobi battle techniques part 1. Taijutsu, the physical part." I said.

I pulled out a small blue ball and started to toss it in the air. Up and down, up and down it went.

"What the...." Said Naruto dumbfounded.

"Well what are you waiting for, Baka? Just attack already."

"Well I mean, why are you playing with that ball?"

"Why? Because I'm bored, of course. Don't let it bother you. With your weakling attacks it really don't matter what I do. You still won't effect me."

"Uurrgghh! I'm going to crush you!" He screams while once again charging. Naruto tries to throw a punch but I just block it with my free hand. He then swings around and tries to kick me but I just duck, throwing my blue ball up and down the entire time and quietly yawning to myself. He tries to punch again screaming your mine, only to realize I disappeared.

"Huh?" He asks dumbly.

"Don't let your enemy get behind you all the time" I say while making a hand sign.

"Naruto get out of there quick. Shes going to destroy you" yells Sakura giving up her hiding place.

"Too late". Then I use my foot to kick him into a nearby river.

"Okay now where did I put that ball." I start looking around for it, looking like I wasn't paying attention.

Two shuriken are launched from the water at me from behind. I just move my head to the side little as they go past me.

Back with the Hokage.....................

"It can't be. This is even worse than the rumors." says a stunned Iruka.

"Kakashi's tests may be a bit more difficult than the others." replies the Hokage.

"A bit more difficult? Not a single student has ever past his test."

"That's true. They all tried but not one of them could live up to Kakashi's standards, so they were all eliminated."

"I see. What about that Hana girl?"

"Hana Ookami. She came from and allied village where her clan was massacred. She used to be a jonin there, but since the incident, she's lived here and is taking the test as well. She is nothing to worry about, Iruka. If anything she'll help protect Naruto. I promise you can trust her."

Meanwhile at the bell test............

A hacking Naruto sat on his hands and knees coughing and trying to catch his breath.

"What are ya doing now. You know you won't get lunch unless you get a bell by noon. Weakling." I egged him on.

"I know. I know. Kakashi told us already."

"You look pretty wobbly for somebody whose gonna be strong enough to surpass the hokage" I taunted again.

His stomach growled before he answered. " Kakashi told us not eat breakfast. How can I fight when I'm starving here."

"Some ninja you are. Are you really gonna let a little hunger keep you from you dreams? Is that really you ninja way? If so then you need to quit being a ninja because it isn't easy. It's a long hard path with blood, sweat and tears. Get used to it."

"Your right. Its not gonna stop me and you just caught me off guard. That was it. Believe it!"

I mentally smiled hoping I got through to the other two as well.

"I'm so hungry I don't got any strength. But I can't let that stop me. I'll get one of those bells no matter what. But I'll find the strength somehow. And I'm not going back to the academy. I'll get one of those bells. Believe it!"

This time I couldn't hold back the small smile that formed on my face.

"Then show me your ninja way, Naruto."

"I will become a ninja."

After that was said a whole bunch of shadow clones jumped out of the river and charged at me.

"Haha. You're over confident, Hana. That's why you weren't ready for my shadow clone attack, my best jutsu."

"Honestly I didn't know you could do that, but it still ain't good enough. If you want to become hokage, then you must surpass me. Show me what you got."

"What he got me from behind." I said as a clone snuck up behind me and jumped on my back.

"Didn't you say don't let your enemies get behind you? Good advice Hana believe it. I ha done if my clones sneak out of the river then come up behind you super quiet. Now this is for nailing me in the butt earlier!! Your mine and so is that bell!"

I saw his fist coming closer to my face and you could hear the snack loud and clear. Too bad he only hit my substitution that was his own clone. After that the clones all got into a brawl and started yelling at each other accusing each other of being me transformed into him. Finally one of them suddenly became smart and suggested to release the justu to see if one is left behind, only to find out none of them were me. What and idiot but he is pretty amusing I smirked. I then saw Naruto glance down at the ground. I followed his gaze to see a bell shining in the sunlight laying on the ground. I checked to see if it was mine. Nope I still had mine. I looked again except to see this one was a trap. Very clever Kakashi, I thought.I just laid back and enjoyed the show.

"I must of got to here with my attack. She dropped the bell." He said with a chuckle and a giant grin on his face like he won the lottery.

Naruto reaches to grab the bell only to realize it was a trap, once he was hanging by his feet from a rope tied to a tree.

"Hey. Hey. Let mrs down. What is this? Aaagggh! Somebody! Hey. Come on! The bell!" he yelled and tried to reach the bell. Until he noticed Jakshi picking it up. Kakashi sighed before speaking.

"Think before you use a jutsu or your opponent might use it against you like Hana did. Oh and also, if the bait is obvious, don't take it. A ninja must see though deception."

"I. Get. It." grunted Naruto.

"I'm telling you this because you don't get it. You think you get it, which isn't actually the same as getting it. Get it?"

"Wow Kakashi. Who knew you could be such an ass?" I yelled out to him from my spot in the trees.

"You're one to talk Hana. Isn't that what you were the entire time?"

"Yea but I already knew I was and ass. Haha" I laughed and he just chuckled a little bit

Kunai and Shuriken were launched at him from Sasuke.

"Aaah. He just got blasted with shuriken. Are you out of your mind Sasuke. You went too far."

He fell right into Kakashi's trap to let him show his position even though we both already knew. Kakashi appeared next to me on the same branch.

"After I get done with Naruto im going after Sakura. I want you to go after Sasuke."

"K, but I'm going to enjoy the show first." I said with a sly smile.
