(Okay, so here will be the bell test, now that Sakura gave up on Sasuke, cut her hair and stuff, I bet ya all are excited to see how well she'll coupe. Enjoy! P.S, this will also be another long chapter.)

Sakura pov

Noooooo, I don't wanna get up, why did sensei said that we need to be up early, the bed is so warm and comfy. I snuggled deeper under my covers, not wanting to get up, but remembering what Kakashi-sensei said made me groan and forced myself to get up. I looked at my alarm clock, seeing I am just an hour early to be awake, making me click my tongue the sudden strange urge to wake up early. Releasing a sigh, I climbed out of bed and walked to my new pair of clothes I had set for today's training, but for some reason, I have a bad feeling about this. I took the first piece of my clothes and put it on, then the next one, and finally my ninja shoes, and after that I stood in front of the mirror to see if something else was missing. As usual, I wore a red dress that had pink blossom flowers on them, a thick pink and thin black ribbon wrapped around my stomach, black shorts under my dress (A/N: It's not in the pick, sorry about that. It's hard to find clothes for such fighters.), and lastly long black clothings on both arms.

(Minus the Two Sais, although it does fit with the outfit, but Sakura doesn't use them, and minus the socks and shoes.)

I grinned at myself, I don't really look that bad, I actually look... hot, mystical and mysterious, I can't wait to see the look on the boys' faces, and also sensei's faces, just thinking about it makes me grin. But then I frowned at what comes next, sensei said we shouldn't eat anything, because we might puke it right back up. I looked at my clock to see I have 45 minutes left to be actually awake, and I smiled, screw you sensei, I'm going to eat breakfast. Disobeying a sensei, it's actually fun, so I quickly pack what is need and head down stairs quietly, knowing my parents are still asleep, head to the kitchen and set up some delicious dangos and a cup of sweet red bean soup. Once I was finished, I was my dishes, took my back, wrote a note for my parents, as always if they don't know where I am, and lastly walked out of the door. The air was really fresh, and the sun was slowly began to come out, but still dark-ish, but no one was still up. I purposely walked slow to the training ground, knowing I'll be very early there, but might as well talk to E.N.D just to kill some time. When I arrived there, I sat my bag down, climbed a tree and sat on a branch before I began to her.

' You there E.N.D?'

' I'm here sweetie, what's the matter?'

' Just want to chat, I'm way to early at the training ground, I want to kill some time so I won't be bored.'

' Is that so? Fuhuhuhuhuhu, okay Sakura, how about I start explaining you some of the magic? Oh and I also decided what other magic will perfectly suit a fire dragon slayer.'

' Really? Please tell me!.'

E.N.D pov

I chuckled at my host, so I began to explain first what magic suits her better (A/N: That magic will be revealed during the chuunin exam), then began to explain the different types of magic, and Sakura had written them down in a note book she decided to take with her. Sakura is a really smart girl, she has good memory, perfect chakra control and all, but what she lack is stamnia, I'm sure as hell I'll change that, no way will I let this girl get her ass kicked by some random enemy. After I explained most of the magic, I kept quiet so that the girl can study in peace, and I gotta say, she will be an excellent ninja and mage. It was so peaceful to hear the silent, but sooner or later, the two rivals will show up eventually and will start a fight, and I am not looking forward to it.

'... Hey Sakura.'

' Hm? Yes?'

' When those boys appear and want to start a fight, please do me a favour and whack them behind the head. I can't stand it there childish nonsense.'

' Sure, I will do that. It will be really interesting to whack the last heir of the Uchiha.'

I smiled at the thought, it would be good to put the bastard Uchiha in his place, the look on his face would be classic, and with the Uzumaki kid, it's natural that Sakura hits him a lot. We're going to wait here long, so might aswell take a nap. So wrapped my wings around myself and closed my eyes, ready to take my well rested nap.

Normal pov.

Sakura suddenly stopped with her notes when she smelled the air and smiled when she sensed it was the boys, so she waited until they were close enough. Once Naruto and Sasuke slowly walked towards each other, Naruto fall faced first while Sasuke sighed and sat right next to a half-sleeping Naruto. The Uchiha's eyes suddenly landed on a bag, the caught a shadow moving in the tree, but knowing who it is, he called out.

"When did you get here? And what are you doing in that tree Sakura?"

"Oh nothing Sasuke, just relaxing and going over some notes, and being up early, well it's starting to become a habit of mine, blame that on my mother."

"Tsk, whatever, early or not, that doesn't make you a strong nin-...ja..."

Sasuke's eyes widened and he gaped at the sight of Sakura, and the sudden change of voice got Naruto to slowly lift his head out of curiosity, but when he saw Sakura's new look, he copied the exact same expression of Sasuke. Sakura laughed at them, she was right, the expression on their faces is priceless, and she was about to tease how classic they look right now, but Naruto suddenly had hearts in his eyes and screamed. Sasuke was still shocked at her sudden change, and she swore she saw a little pink appear on his cheeks, but what shocked her he compliment her new look, both of them making her blush.

"SAKURA!! YOU LOOK SO SEXY!! HOW MY KAMI!! YOU ALSO LOOK LIKE A GODDESS!!"

"... Well, your new look looks better and more konoichi-like."

' D-d-d-did they just, oh my Kami, if Ino and Hinata finds out about this, I'll be good as dead. But then again, the way they said it, makes me happy. Be still my heart.'

"W-well, t-thank you."

Sakura looked at the ground embarrassed, not expecting them to complimenting her or call her a goddess, but she did smile a little though. She turned around and walked back to the tree and leaned on it, waiting for their sensei to arrive any minute now. All three genins had waited a lot, but it took the Kakashi THREE WHOLE HOURS to get here, but just like the boys, his visible eye winded in shock at her new look. Sakura crossed her arms and tap her one foot on the ground while giving him a look that said "why are you late?", Naruto was pointing an accusing finger at him while he screamed "YOU'RE LATE SENSEI!!" and lastly Sasuke only glared at him. Kakashi only give an eye smile and spoke.

"Sorry for keeping you waiting, you see, there was an old woman that needed help with her groceries, her back couldn't take the heavy weights."

"LIAR!!"

"...*Can't believe we have a sensei like that.*... Sigh, okay okay, now that out of the way- NARUTO SHUT UP!!"

Sakura punched him hard on the head, creating a bump on his head and he whined how much it hurt, making Kakashi sweat drop. Sasuke rolled his eyes and called him an idiot, but that also caused him to get a punch on the head, and he looked shockingly at Sakura who had crossed her arms and clicked her tongue.

"If you boys dare start a fight or begin to argue, both of you will kiss or eat ground. Anyway sensei, what training are we doing?"

"...*Did she seriously hit Sasuke? I thought she was his fangirl, guess I was proven wrong.*... Well, the exercise we're going to do is survival training, it's a bell test."

Kakashi pulled out two pair of bells out and held it in the sky while explaining the details of the test. This is how it works, the genins should try and take a bell from him, if they succeed, they pass, if not, they go back straight to the academy. Sakura suddenly realised that there are three of them and two bells.

"Sensei, there are only three of us, what would happen if the third teammate can't have the bells if the other two has them?"

"Well, the last member of the team that doesn't have a bell, goes back to the academy aswell, but, he or she will never become a ninja again."

All three genins' eyes winded in shock, but then both boys stared at Sakura, obviously thinking that Sakura won't make it at all (A/N: All you girls out there, I bet you agree that most boys proberly thinks the same things because we're girls, that we're weak and all, but they will be surprised that we're not~! P.S no offense boys, I still like you guys.), but what they didn't know is that Sakura has a few tricks up her sleeves. Kakashi new what the boys were thinking, but kept quiet and tied the bells on his pouch, set the timer, pulled out his book and began to read.

"Since I start the timer, attack me, attack me like you're intent to kill."

With that said, Naruto immediately charged towards Kakashi while Sasuke studied their sensei's move and Sakura didn't know what to do, but she guessed she'll go with the flow and take it from there. Sakura didn't know that she was deep in thought until she heard a big splashing noise on her right side, and the sudden voice in front of her.

"What are you standing there for Sakura? You're supposed to hide, or attack me."

"R-right, sorry."

With that Sakura head towards a tree and began to quietly move around before hiding in a bush, trying to fool her sensei that she was hiding in a tree. At first nothing happened, Kakashi was surprised that they can hid themselves so well, but then he sighed when the hyperactive one decided to jump out of his hiding place, created shadow clones and charged at him for the second time. Sakura wanted to smack her forehead for the idiot's idiotic behaviour, for a guy who doesn't know when to give up, he's really dumb, and Sasuke glared at him, but said nothing, waiting for the right moment to attack his sensei and take the two bells. At first the two hidden genins thought that Naruto got him, but to their surprised, Kakashi turned into a log, and much to their displeasure, their sensei had came out of nowhere, brought his hands together and thrusted hard against Naruto's clothed butthole. The pain caused Naruto to shoot high in the sky as he hold his butt painfully while he cried out in pain anime style, and then fall hard in the river again.

' Ouch, now that's got to hurt, I feel sorry for Naruto.'

' Well I don't, that was freaking hilarious! To see that again will make my day.'

' E.N.D, you're really mean.'

E.N.D snorted while she responded "I am a demon, I'm never nice", and it made Sakura click her tongue at her, but said nothing and began to sniff the air. She then tensed when she smelled that Kakashi was slowly creeping up to her, making her quickly spun around and throw a kunai at him, but the silver haired Jonin caught it with ease and gave her an eye smile.

"Wow, you're quick on your feet, very impressive... but."

With that Kakashi disappeared, leaving Sakura alone that made her glared at the spot where he stood warily, but her eyes jerked up with a familiar voice. Her eyes winded what stood before her, Sasuke was holding on a tree for dear life, and was covered in kunai knives, and she wanted to pass out so badly, but E.N.D had managed to snap her out of it.

' Don't fall for it, this is an illusion, quick, dispell the genjutsu!'

Doing as she was told, Sakura brought her hands together and formed a hand sign before yelling out "Kai", dispelling the jutsu, much to Kakashi surprise, he didn't expect for her to see right through it. He watched the girl sulking angrily before muttering and saying insults of the sensei before walking the opposite direction. Kakashi stared at her dumbfounded, but then he smiled, sensing that this girl will be an excellent ninja indeed.

"Just like her parents said, her nose is her secret weapon, no genjutsus will work on her, a rare ninja to have. Interesting."

...

Sakura stomped her way towards the training ground, clearly pissed off at her sensei for casting a jutsu to see such a horrifying scene, if it wasn't for E.N.D, she'll most definitely would've passed out. Just as she was about to step out of the forest, she heard a frustrated scream coming from the tree on her right, and when she looked who it was, she gaped. Naruto was hanging upside down from a tree by his one leg, and it caused her to run to him.

"Naruto, what on earth happened to you? Did sensei tied you up?"

"Yes he did, I'm gonna kick that bastered's ass once I get down from here!... Um, Sakura?"

"Yes Naruto?"

"Can you... uh... get me down here?"

"Sure, was planning on it."

Sakura took out a kunai and threw it towards the rope, cutting it and free Naruto, but much to her displeasure, there was another trap that was hidden, it had caught his other leg and the poor blonde ninja hanged upside down again.

"Aaaahh not again!"

"... Guess sensei wanted to keep you busy for awhile, sigh, hold still Naruto."

For the second time, she pulled out another kunai and threw it towards the next rope, cutting it, and thankfully, there were no other traps, much to their reliefs. Naruto began to puff angrily and sulked that their sensei for making him suffer through the trap, and Sakura sweat dropped. E.N.D snickered at his childish antics, already liking the idiot to be her new amusement, but then she suddenly remembered.

' Hey, where's pretty boy?'

' Sasuke? Have no clue, I guess I'll have to go look for him.'

"Naruto, wait here while I go look for Sasuke."

"Why look for that bastard *while me and you are finally alone together!?* I mean, he is selfish."

"True, but remember he is part of team 7, and a team should stick together."

Naruto gave her a funny look, clearly saying that he refuse to call Sasuke his teammate, making Sakura pop a vein, but took a few deep breaths to calm down while standing up and dusting herself off before glaring at him.

"Like it or not, Sasuke is our teammate, he is part of team 7 whether you like it or not, and as for Sasuke, I bet he'll gave me the same look you had gave me. But that won't stop me for calling you both my teammates, now while I go look for Sasuke, don't move from that spot. Who knows what other trap sensei had lay out for you."

With that Sakura turned around and marched off to look for Sasuke, leaving a shell shock Naruto behind, and from a hiding place, Kakashi was just as shocked as the blonde ninja. This girl is full of surprises, she might actually pass. Kakashi shook his head and watched as Naruto was disobeying her orders, but then glared when he found the food and was about to eat it.

"What do you think you're doing Naruto?"

...

Sakura tried so hard not to laugh, along with E.N.D, at the scene before her, Sasuke was stuck in a hole inside the ground, only his head was visible. But Sakura had failed miserably when Sasuke glared embarrassily at her, she couldn't contain them anymore. Never in her life did she saw such an ironic scene, oh how much she wished she had a camera right now.

"Would you stop laughing already!?"

"S-sorry, but I pffft, hehehehe, c-couldn't help i-it. Fuhuhuhuhuhu, I b-bet this is s-sensei's doing."

Sasuke glared at her, but the nodded his head angrily, making Sakura release a few more giggles before walking towards him, kneeled down and began to loosen the ground with a kunai. Sometimes she would ask him to wiggle a little, stabbing the ground, wiggle again before his arms and hands were free, but he still struggled to get free.

"... Guess I'll have to pull you out, hold still."

"Hey! I don't need your help!"

"Too bad, you're accepting my help whether you like it or not, now, on the count of three, I'll pull you out. One, two, three."

With that Sakura pulled on his hands, feeling that they are not getting anywhere, so she asked him to wiggle again before pulling him again. Then she decided she'll have to pull him out from behind, so she walked behind him, slide her hands under his shoulder and spoke.

"Okay, from the count of three, you wiggle, I pull, one, two, three."

Sasuke began to wiggle while Sakura pulled as hard as she could, and she finally got him out of that whole, but the weight of Sasuke's body made her fall, bringing the Uchiha with her and fell on her. They both groaned at the impact, but stood up and dusted themselves off, and Sakura gave him a cheeky grin.

"That wasn't so bad, now was it?"

"... I... guess not. But still, I didn't had needed your help Sakura, stop forcing people."

"I couldn't leave you here, you are my teammate, you are also  Naruto's teammate. And DON'T you even DARE giving me that look that you care less about us, because whether you like it or not, we are your teammates Uchiha."

With that Sakura grabbed a surprised Sasuke by the arm and dragged him towards the training ground, and she was satisfied that he wasn't complaining, although she feel really horrible talking back to her old crush, but it had to be done.

"Now you listen here you bastard, there is a reason why we're placed on a team, I don't know yet, but then again I don't like it when MY team is turning on each other, there has to be another way for all three of us to pass!"

"Say what you will, I won't call a dead last and a weak annoying girl my teammates. I can take care of myself."

"Take care of yourself? *Snorts*, don't make me laugh, I'm not the one that got myself into a hole!"

Sasuke glared at her, feeling his patient and temper began dropping, yet he was surprised that she even dared talk back to him, he never had met such a girl. On and on they argued, until they heard the bell ring at noon, causing Sakura to glare at a frustrated Sasuke before she punched him on the shoulder, surprisingly it was really painful.

"I can't believe I wasted my time trying to talk you through! What is it with you men and boys!? I swear that I'm the only sane person on this team! Ugh!"

Sakura roughly let go of Sasuke's arm and immediately stomped her way towards the training ground, and the Uchiha could hear that she's throwing curses everywhere. He waited for awhile before he too began walking towards the training ground, though he was not aware that their sensei heard every last word.

...

"NARUTOOOOO!!! HOW ON EARTH DID YOU GOT YOURSELF TIED UP TO A FUCKING LOG!! DIDN'T I TOLD YOU TO FUCKING STAY PUT ON THAT SPOT OVER THERE!!?"

Naruto stared wide eyed at a now demon-like angry Sakura, paling when she promised a horrifing punishment when when the this is over. Kakashi shivered a little at the girl, sensing dark aura surrounding the now angry girl, the Uchiha did a great job pissing her off, he actually feels sorry for Naruto. But then again he did disobey her orders, so he shouldn't be, as for the Uchiha, he just silently sat there, now and then winching as Sakura keep raising her voice.

"Okay okay, calm down Sakura, I'm sure he had learned his lesson. I know you are frustrated and all, but please take deep breaths."

Doing what he instructed, Sakura sat down and took deep breaths, closing her eyes to clear her mind, trying to think of a happy place, until she suddenly heard E.N.D singing a lullaby with, surprisingly, a gentle, soft voice.

'Cast away your worries, my dear
For tomorrow comes a new day
Hold to me, you've nothing to fear
For your dreams are not far away
My your dreams take over, my love
Listen close, my son of the west
For your destiny lies above'

' Wow, that was beautiful E.N.D, where did you learn that song?'

' Zeref, your mother always sang that lullaby to him whenever he goes asleep.'

' That's really beautiful, can you teach it to me?'

' Sure, now that I calmed you down, which is a miracle, I think you're ready to hear what is Hatake's results.'

Sakura winched when she mentioned it, and she had a bad feeling that it won't end well, so she opened her eyes and stared at the sensei and smiled, showing him that she's fine now. Naruto sighed in relief, glad that she's not angry anymore, but he fears that he'll still get punished for disobeying her orders. Sasuke stared at Sakura, then clicked his tongue and crossed his arms, waiting for their sensei to speak. Kakashi gave an eye smile and spoke.

"I have good news, and bad news, which one would you like to hear?"

"Uh, can we start with the bad news first?"

"Sure, the bad news is not all of you had passed."

"H-huh? Not all of us? So then, what's the good news?"

"The good news is, Sakura is the one that had passed, you boys had failed."

"Say WHAT!!?"

Sakura's eyes widened in shock, while the boys stared in disbelief at her, then glared at their sensei who was still smiling. Without even knowing it, Sakura jumped up and demanded him why'd she only passed and not the boys, and he began to explain why.

"Because Sakura, you're the only one that bothered to try and make the boys realize why it's important to be in a team, plus you also bothered to help them when they were trapped. And the boys, they were selfish and only fought for themselves, not even thinking about their teammates, I heard your conversation with Naruto and Sasuke, I wasn't happy to hear what they said."

"... So... what was the point of this exercise then? You did say we get to pass if we get the bells."

"About that, I lied, I only said it to see if you can see underneath the underneath, and you did Sakura, the boys didn't. You wanted another way for the whole team to pass, and there was, it has nothing to do with the bells. So think Sakura, what was the main reason for this exercise?"

Sakura frowned a little, going through all the things that had happened, she broke through the genjutsu easily, thanks to E.N.D, concerning for her teammates, even trying to telling them there is a reason why they are a team, helping Naruto to get out of the ropes, twice, and helping Sasuke get out of the hole. She chuckled a little at the thought, she really did wish to have a camera, she would easily blackmail him to do anything she demands him. After going through it one last time, her head snapped up in realisation and gasp.

"Was the test about teamwork sensei?"

"Ding ding, you are correct Sakura. You know the true meaning of teamwork, and it made you to pass the test. Now, you are now free to do whatever you want, as for you boys, I'll give you another change, since Sakura cares about you two, have a little break, and then we can start."

(Yay! Finally done with this chapter, sorry for it to take it so long, I did try to make it interesting. Oh and as for the lullaby E.N.D sang, the whole song will be just about it. Those who knows the song, good for you, those who doesn't, this comes from an anime. You'll know soon enough. Anyway, I hope you all enjoyed it!)
