Chapter 4: A
Very Strange Day

~*~

It was a
beautiful morning. The sun was warming up Konohagakure
quite nicely. The birds were flitting about, spreading the joy of their morning
songs. Quite a perfect day, should someone notice and comment on it. It was as
if miracles were just right around the corner, waiting to happen. She could
feel it in her bones. She had complete faith in that; after all, a woman�s
intuition counts for a lot, doesn�t it?
Sakura stretched and got up
from bed, smiling. Not even the knowledge that her teacher would again be late
dampened her high spirits. There�s just something about this day that made her
heart thump with excitement and anticipation. Briefly, she wondered what could
be in store for her.
�Oh, well,� she thought, �What
will come will come� No use thinking about it..�
She did her morning rituals
and got ready to go to Team Seven�s meeting place, humming all the while.
~*~

Sasuke sat
beneath a tree, as he always did while waiting for his team. He didn�t have
much sleep the night before; he was restless for some reason unfathomable to
his genius mind� Well, for the moment, at least.
However, he was determined to
solve this newfound problem of insomniac. A good shinobi
should live a healthy life. And that includes having at least eight hours of sleep per day. So there.
Besides, the eye bags would surely ruin his perfect face. Not that he cared, of
course.
He picked up a kunai and threw
it at the tree trunk opposite him. He had drawn three circles and a dot there
earlier, and his weapon hit the second circle from the center. He cursed to
himself. Even his aim was off. His day was really beginning to suck big time.
He sensed an approaching
presence, and he looked at the one who dared to disturb his brainstorming.
From the horizon rose a golden
head, worthy of the sun�s praise, and a cheerful face that seemed to brighten
up the surroundings even more. Naruto�s smile was
unlike his usual goofy grin, nor his proud leer, nor his determined smirk. It
was simply peaceful and calm, accentuated by the color and warmth of his soft
blue eyes. The occurrence itself is something that surely was of value for its
rarity.
Sasuke�s breath hitched at the
beautiful sight. Upon reaching the bridge, Naruto raised his arm and waved at
him, the unusually pleasant expression still on his marked face. It took just
an instant for him to nod in acknowledgement, but it felt like such a long
time. He took in a fairly large amount of air. He almost forgot to breathe.
Get a grip, Sasuke! What is
wrong with you?
The Uchiha heir was becoming
increasingly confused and irritated. His lack of understanding was pushing the
limits to his patience. But no, he will not lose his cool. He was an avenger,
after all. Avengers are supposed to be cold and mostly expressionless. And so
he started to meditate. The process was cut short, however, as a voice
completely shattered his concentration.
�Ne,
Sasuke.�
�What?!�
The falter in the other�s
smile was proof that the response came out harsher than he intended. He sighed.
He then looked at his teammate and noticed that the smile was completely gone.
A sudden pain erupted in his chest at the sight. He still did not understand,
but he instinctively knew that he had to do something about it. Anything!
�Bad day.�
At his words, Naruto
momentarily forgot about the all too familiar pain of rejection. He blinked.
Did Sasuke just apologize?
�Well, what is it?� Sasuke
asked significantly less coldly.
Naruto was taken aback; he
certainly wasn�t used to Sasuke acting like this. Yesterday was weird, but this
is ridiculously strange! Sasuke didn�t really say sorry, but it was almost
there, wasn�t it? However, when he noticed the expectant expression of the
ebony-eyed boy, he instantly remembered his original purpose. He sheepishly
smiled and averted his eyes.
�A-anou,
I just wanted to thank you for yesterday,� the aspiring Hokage said, somewhat
shyly, �It was fun.� He then looked at him straight in the eyes to convey his
sincerity.
Time slowed down, and eternity
seemed to flow right by as black eyes regarded blue pools, drowning in them,
frozen in the moment. And a perfect moment it was, until Sakura decided to
arrive.
~*~

�Ohayo, minna-san!� Sakura beamed at her fellow genins.
Naruto broke eye contact with
Sasuke and stood. He waved enthusiastically at the girl. �Ohayo,
Sakura-chan!� He was also smiling.
A fake one, Sasuke observed.
Where the hell did that
come from? He turned away from them. He needed more time to himself. He needed
to think. After all, Kakashi wouldn�t be around for
another couple of hours.
No sooner had he thought this,
a soft �poof� sound caught his attention. There, in the middle of the clearing,
stood the famous Copy Ninja Kakashi, pinkish mist
quickly dissipating around him. At six in the morning.
A certain orange-clad ninja
had eyes almost popping out of their sockets.
�K-kakashi-sensei!� Disbelief was clear in his voice. It�s a sign! The
world is coming to an end! These and more insane thoughts were running
through Naruto�s head.
Sakura checked her watch. It
was six. On the dot. She was right, she just knew it!
Things were surely becoming more interesting�
�You�re actually on time!�
�No need to state the obvious,
Sakura�� the jounin replied, �We have a lot of things
to do today.�
The Uchiha hid his surprise
well. That is not to say that he wasn�t curious about their teacher�s bizarre
behavior. He picked himself up from the ground. Then he leaned back against the
tree in a stance that seemed to say, �Well, then, let�s have it.�
Taking this
as his cue, the masked ninja continued, �Well, basically, there are no
missions, but we are going to train today.� His visible eye showed a lot of
seriousness.
Hearing this, Sakura slowly
moved towards him. It was always like this. If they were going to train, it
just meant that Sasuke will spar with Naruto, and Kakashi with her. That�s why she was even more surprised
when the gray-haired man called for Naruto instead. Her shock was quickly
forgotten as her mind caught up with her. She�ll get to train with Sasuke! Oh
the joy, the sheer bliss of it all! Absolutely nothing can ruin her good mood
today. She giggled madly. Miracles do happen, after all.
~*~

�Sakura, you
train with Sasuke. Naruto, a word.�
Sakura stopped on her tracks
and stood still as a rock. She didn�t seem to absorb the order as fast as she
would have in any other given situation. Naruto, on the other hand, raised an
eyebrow. He had a mildly curious expression on his face. Sasuke frowned.
�But��
�That is an order. Stay here. Both of you.� The spiky-haired man walked towards the
forest. �Naruto,� he called.
Naruto followed the jounin farther into the forest. When he deemed them far
enough away, the scarecrow stopped and turned to face his charge. But before he
could say anything, Naruto held up his hand. This took the teacher by surprise,
and the student took this chance to speak his mind.
�Kakashi-sensei,�
he took a deep breath and met the other�s eye, �if you hurt him, I will
personally kill you. I don�t care if you�re stronger than me right now. I will
find a way.� Straight to the point, as always.
Kakashi did not even dare to think that those
were empty threats. He raised his hitai-ate while
removing his mask. �So you know.� It wasn�t a question. �My intentions are true
and sincere. Believe me, I will never do that. And if I do, it�s possible that
I will beat you to it: the task of killing me.�
Naruto was glaring at him; but
when the older man started to show his face, blue eyes widened in realization. Kakashi was damned serious. Naruto was a smart kid,
contrary to popular belief. He understood what the gesture meant and took it to
heart. His sensei�s show of trust will never be betrayed. His fears and trepidations
were erased and he smiled.
�That�s good to hear.�
A breeze came and ruffled the
leaves around them. The sound of home permeated their senses as they stared at
each other in silence.
Naruto thought of how bizarre
this day had been so far. From the start, it hinted that it was an unusual one
in its own way: the air was practically charged with a sense of anticipation.
And then came that unexpected almost-apology from Sasuke. Kakashi
coming on time was really something. And now this.
�Well. That aside, I�ll tell
you why I brought you here.�
The blond boy listened
attentively.
�The two of us have a secret
mission.�
Yes, it was a strange day. A very strange day indeed.
~*~
A/N: I�m
guessing you guys want to kill me now. But before you do that, please leave a
review. Onegai�
