Last Time:
“Nope! Begin!” The proctor announced and the many gates opened allowing all the genin inside …
XXXXXXXXXX
“This is creepy.” Sakura whimpered as she looked around the creepy trees that she could see in the darkness. “Make a fire and start dinner.” She said as she shivered.
Naruto unsealed exactly two bowls and a canteen of soup, “No. Everyone is actively hunting each other to get a matching set of scrolls. We can’t risk being near a fire. I’ll make a decoy campsite to lure someone in, but we can’t be near it.” He said as he gave them the steamy bowls of soup that were heated with seals and went to start a fire farther away.
“You … said no to me?” A baffled pinkette murmured in disbelief as she watched Naruto make three clones to look like each of them. Naruto had the clones pretend to sleep in the sleeping bags, which were just henged leaves. She refused to admit that it was impressive. Instead she reluctantly gobbled down her soup as if she was trying to eat away the stress this new Naruto caused.
“Not in the mood to play peacemaker.” Naruto said and he truly meant it.
With the entire team 8 madness, albeit ended with great new friendships, and the Orochimaru related plots he just wasn’t in any mood where he can fake a goofy grin. Knowing this not only put him on edge, but it made him want to make less of a target than he already was. Of course, the goal of the test was to get an Earth scroll and a Heaven scroll and Sasuke took the scroll they were given. Naruto stole it without Sasuke knowing, but he made a point to let a few other teams see him holding it before they were allowed into the forest. Being a target is something he can handle better than his teammates.
Sasuke scoffed as Sakura spluttered. He hated the fact that the blonde had a good plan. However, he refused to think the blonde wasn’t the same idiot that’d do anything without a complaint. To prove it he poured out his soup.
Once Naruto finished setting up the fake campsite Sasuke held out his empty bowl, “Mine spilled. Give me yours.”
“Sasuke, I only pulled out two bowls.” Naruto said pointedly hoping the Uchiha would get the hint that he wasn’t getting more soup.
The Uchiha scoffed, “Liar. What were you going to eat? I’ll have that.”
“You want to eat vomit?” Naruto asked and shrugged when he saw the looks of horror and disgust on both his teammates’ faces. “What? I already ate during the first exam. I’d give you something else, but we don’t know how long this will take so I can’t waste supplies. The last thing we need is to split up and hunt when we’re being hunted.” He whispered just loud enough so only his teammates could hear before sitting down with them to watch the fake campsite from behind a bush.
The pinkette looked nervously at her empty bowl and tucked it out of sight so Sasuke wouldn’t see that she ate hers already, “And what’s-“ Sakura was cut off when Naruto shushed her. Her jaw dropped in shock, but shook it off and glared instead. “What about Sasuke?” She hissed as quietly as she could, still a bit embarrassed about eating her soup so fast. If she knew Sasuke would need it then she would have slowed down.
The blonde shrugged again as he watched the decoy between the leafy branches, “Go hungry or go hunt. It’ll serve you right for being clumsy.” He whispered and tensed as he sensed a team of three coming towards the campsite. No doubt they smelled the smoke.
Sasuke scowled, recognizing the remark as something he told Naruto to do many times before despite knowing that he shoved Naruto every time, “We can’t risk separating now. We’re being hunted, idiot.” The Uchiha muttered trying to take credit for what Naruto said just a minute ago. It shouldn’t have fooled anyone and it wouldn’t fool someone with sense. However, Sakura did fall for it and swooned. “Make a clone and go hunt.” Sasuke demanded.
“No.” Naruto said bluntly. Not once during this stupid conversation did Naruto stop watching the decoy campsite and it’s a good thing he didn’t. While his annoyed teammates were busy glaring at him, three Stone ninjas quietly took the bait.
Thankfully, before the whiny teammates could argue a series of puffs were heard. The noise came from the decoy campsite. When Sasuke and Sakura turned to look they saw three other ninjas out cold in the decoy campsite. They noticed that four blondes were strip searching the ninjas and suddenly realized that Naruto went over there without them even noticing.
One of the clones found the scroll after searching one of the intruder’s pants, “Heaven scroll.” He said and gave it to Naruto.
“Perfect. With our Earth scroll we’ve passed the test. I’ll take that.“ Sasuke ordered smugly. He wanted both scrolls for himself since they were the goal of the test so he wanted the credit. When Naruto turned to him the scroll and all of the Stone ninjas’ things were gone. “Where is it?”
“With our Earth scroll.” Naruto said bluntly before turning to his clones. “Leave them near the fire.” He commented as Sasuke immediately looked through his own supplies.
Sakura looked grossed out and covered her eyes so she couldn’t see the nakedness as the clones moved the three naked ninjas near the fire, “Ewww. Give them their stuff back.”
Naruto raised an eyebrow, “They approached the campsite with kunais in their hands. That puffing sounds you heard were the henged sleeping bags being stabbed. If they were ready to kill us, why should I give them anything?”
Sakura gave the blonde a disturbed look, “At least, give them some clothes-“
“Shut up!” Sakura jumped in shock. Both the pinkette and a surprised Naruto turned to look at a clearly pissed off Sasuke, who apparently dumped out his supplies on the ground during his frantic search for his Earth scroll. “I had it in my supplies! Where are the scrolls?!” Sasuke snapped and glared at Naruto when he remembered the blonde using seals before. “Give it back.”
Naruto blinked in shock at how the Uchiha was acting, but then his eyes narrowed, “Make up your mind. I’m either an idiot or capable of picking your pockets without you noticing. I can’t just be the lightning rod for your childish tantrums. The scrolls are safe and if you act like this you won’t get them.” He said managing to keep his tone calm despite his patience getting thin.
Sakura looked offended by the outburst, “Don’t be rude!” It was then that everyone heard Sasuke’s stomach growl. “Naruto-“ The blonde cut her off by having his clones move right next to her and had one cover. her mouth before she realized they even moved.
“An average chunin is able to make 3 shadow clones. Why don’t you guys do that to hunt or eat your own supplies for once. You have plenty.” Naruto said pointedly as he glanced at all the supplies that Sasuke threw on the ground during his search. It was easy to see that the Uchiha had several wrapped snack cakes and other treats hidden away. “Get away from the campsite. Other teams are still out there.” He said as he went back behind the bushes and dispelled his clones.
“3?” Sakura murmured thoughtfully, but before she could think about how she couldn’t make solid clones like Naruto she spotted Sasuke picking up his supplies. “Let me help-“
“Get behind the bushes and be quiet.” Sasuke snapped sulkily as he shoved his stuff into his pack and returned to the bushes.
The pinkette winced and joined her teammates. Once the Stone ninja team woke up they screamed and ran away to find some coverage. Naruto got up and reset the trap.
“Why bother?” Sakura asked with a nasty tone.
“The more scrolls the less opponents that are able to pass. That should be obvious, idiot.” Sasuke grumbled, before Naruto could explain. He wasn’t going to let the blonde keep making him look bad. “We’ll do this every night until we get to the tower.” He ordered as if he was in control. Without offering to help he pulled out his sleeping bag and got in.
“So 2 nights.” Naruto clarified as he returned, making Sasuke scowl from his own sleeping bag. However, he ignored it and laid on the ground to sleep. After a moment he realized Sakura didn’t have any supplies. Why would she when she didn’t even know about the exam? “Here, Sakura.” He said as he unsealed one of the Stone ninjas’ sleeping bags.
“Yeah …” Sakura muttered in a stunned daze that was caused by being called an idiot. For a moment she considered trying to ask Sasuke for a sleeping bag, but the words he said echoed through her head and she settled on the bag Naruto gave her.
XXXXXXXXXX
Shino stood in the tree and watched his teammates’ backs as they took a scroll from an unconscious team from Cloud, “We should go and settle for the night. My insects should report soon.”
“Right.” Hinata said and they left. Without knowing it they knocked out the team members just like Naruto did. However, they left them with clothes on. “Kiba … thank you for earlier.”
The ninja raised an eyebrow, “For what?” He asked curiously and was a bit surprised to see the blank looks on his teammates’ faces. Thankfully, a few barks from Akamaru cleared everything up. “Oh! You mean back in the hokage’s office. I didn’t do much.”
The pale eyed ninja shook her head with a smile, “You kept everyone from freaking out.”
Kiba shrugged as they settled in a hidden area just as the sun started going down, “Maybe? I honestly didn’t see a reason to freak out … especially when the hokage basically begged us all to not freak out.” He said pointedly as he scratched his dog’s ear. “It was surprising, but it’s not like it changed who Naruto was. He’s still the guy we saved a kingdom with. if anything it explained a lot … I was more interested in how this connected with my teammate.” Kiba snickered, making Shino blush. “I will get details one day.”
“Not going to happen.” Shino exclaimed and luckily a few of his insects flew towards him making a great distraction. “Naruto’s team is close. My insects say that the Grass team is acting weird and the Sand team killed a team.” He explained after listening to his bugs’ report.
“Which directions? I’ll check.” Hinata said and when Shino told her the information she activated her byakugan. Almost immediately her eyes widened in shock. “The Sand team already made it to the tower. Really impressive in only the first 24 hours. We don’t need to worry about them for now. Oh my!”
Kiba looked very curious, especially since Hinata saw something that made her blush, “What’d you see?!” He asked as he put the scroll in his bag.
Hinata chuckled sheepishly, “There’s 6 teams running around naked.”
“Naked!?” Kiba gasped while trying to keep himself from laughing too loudly. “I bet your boyfriend is responsible somehow!” He chuckled while pointing at Shino.
The insect user blushed, “There’s no way to know that.” Shino commented, but noticed the frown that came to Hinata’s lips. “What is it?”
“I found one of the teams from Grass.” Hinata explained and immediately stood up. “They’re moving too fast and are going straight for Naruto’s team … one of them seems to have too much chakra for a genin.”
In an instant team 8 took off. It didn’t matter that it was dark or that other teams were out there. If they were right and this Grass team was connected to Orochimaru in any way then they had to get to Naruto. Sasuke may be the target, but Naruto knew what was going on and was the only capable one on team 7.
XXXXXXXXXX
Kurama chuckled when he saw the dizzy look on Utakata’s face, “Saiken, give him a minute. Let Hiruzen finish the seals then you can talk my ear off without going through Utakata.” The fox demon commented as he helped keep the dizzy demon vessel from falling off the ROOT infirmary bed.
Hiruzen smiled as he completed the seals that overlapped Utakata’s seal, “One more seal and we’ll be done.” He said as picked up a cute purple octopus plush, which the hokage flipped upside down and made a few seals on it.
Utakata twitched in annoyance, barely noticing that Hiruzen put the plush in his lap, “Thank you! I’m not asking about anyone’s sex life.” Utakata muttered, but he seemed to be talking to the demon inside his mind.
With one hand sign the plush suddenly started moving, “but I wanna know if my big brother is happy! Ask him, please!”
“You can ask yourself.” Kurama said with an amused smile as the plush’s beady eyes widened in realization.
“Big brother!” Saiken squealed happily and launched her plushy body at Kurama.
Utakata smiled as he watched Saiken use all 8 plush legs to hug the fox demon’s head, “That’s cute.”
“It is!” Hiruzen laughed as Saiken kept talking excitedly and Kurama somehow managed to keep up with the conversation.
Unfortunately, the sweet moment was interrupted when a ROOT agent entered the room to report some news. Supposedly, Orochimaru attacked team 7 …
