'Let's kick Uchiha's ass! Let's show him what I'm made of!' I shouted to myself, raising my arms in the air as if victory was already in my hands.
Pursing my lips slightly, I smirked at my image in the mirror. I wasn't wearing kimono today, just simple black pants, dark purple tank top, ninja sandals and of course, a ninja tool pouch. I have never felt so warlike before. No one can beat me down. No one!
'Uchiha is going down! Yaaaaaaay~'
Kabuto's P.O.V
I sweatdropped, hearing Manami-chan yell some bold exclamations and shut her room door with a loud crash. Seems like she's determined to win. Orochimaru-sama has told me about her decision to fight Sasuke-kun.
To be truthful… Her chances are low. She hasn't been practicing as much as Uchiha. Of course she doesn't listen to me. Too bad I won't be able to watch their fight…
'Kabuto, where's Orochimaru-sama?' The girl asked, coming to me with her arms crossed.
I was surprised to see her looking so… Ninja. It's not every day she's wearing simple clothes. It made me chuckle lightly.
'I think he and Sasuke-kun are already waiting for you at the outlet.'
'What? Already?' Manami widened her eyes, then took a few deep breaths. 'I guess I should go. Wish me luck, Kabuto!'
'Good luck,' I smirked slightly. 'You will need it.'
She glared at me, showed her tongue and left. All I could do was chuckle again.
Sasuke's P.O.V
What was taking her so long? We should just get it over with.
As soon as I thought about Manami, she showed up. Her hair was put into a high ponytail and she was wearing shinobi clothes. An odd, but nice sight.
'I'm sorry I'm late, Orochimaru-sama,' she bowed to the snake man and gave me a challenging glare.
I gladly returned it with a smirk on my face. Seems like she's ready to fight. Well, so am I.
'It's alright, my child,' Orochimaru smirked smugly, brushing a strand of hair from Manami's face. 'It's a little chilly outside though.'
'I will be fine. I can't wait to beat Uchiha!' Manami shouted, her orbs flickering with fire.
I rolled my eyes at this. Pathetic.
The three of us left the cave. A cool wave of air hit us. The trees around us were bare already, showing their dirty branches which looked more like arms, trying to scare us. The ground was muddy and the sky was plain gray, but it would get dark soon because it was the end of autumn already.
I noticed Manami shiver under the cold wind, blowing to her face.
'Won't you get cold, wearing so little?' I asked her, smirking again and she narrowed her eyes.
Manami's P.O.V
Crap. It was really really cold. I didn't know that it was autumn already! I hugged my arms, trying to ignore the weather, but of course, Uchiha had to say something stupid.
'I'm not cold,' I snapped, glaring at him hatefully.
'Sasuke-kun is right,' Orochimaru-sama said calmly, putting his hands on his hips. 'You will definitely catch a cold. Go and take something to wear.'
'As you say, master...' I muttered, cursing quietly and running to the hideout to take my sweater.
We reached a nice clearing in the woods, not too far away from our... Home? Yes, I think I could call our cave that. As long as Orochimaru-sama was here, it was my home...
'Time to take responsibility for your words, Manami-chan,' master hissed at me, smirking, as I stood a few metres away from Sasuke. 'He's not the way he was before.'
'I understand.'
Taking a few deep breaths, I gazed at my opponent. He was looking at me, his face emotionless. Damn, where did my fighting spirit disappear...? I don't feel so confident now.
No, everything will be fine! I will beat Uchiha... I can do this!
'I'm not going to interfere as long as it's unnecessary. You can begin.' Orochimaru-sama disappeared in a puff of smoke, leaving me and Uchiha completely alone.
The wind was blowing softer now because the trees were standing in its way. Not a single sound of festival, which seemed so distant at the moment. Hopefully, it won't start raining.
I took a kunai out of my pouch, pointing it at the boy. He sent me one of his annoying smirks and ran at me.
My eyes widened – when did he get so fast?
'Don't doze off,' I heard Sasuke's firm voice as he almost stabbed me in my side.
I barely dodged that… My heartbeat fastened. Obviously Uchiha came at me with an even stronger intention to kill than before. Was he taking it that serious? I narrowed my eyes, attacking him at the full speed, however, he easily avoided me, doing a few graceful backflips.
'Mandara no Jin!'
I gasped slighty as black snakes coiled through Sasuke's mouth, coming straight at me. That's my master's technique!
I took another kunai and slashed those animals in half. No matter how much I adored them, this was no time to have doubts.
'Not bad,' Sasuke commented silently before activating his bloodline limit – Sharingan.
His onyx orbs were dyed in crimson red, with a strange circle in the centre of it. So this is Sharingan... I have never seen it in real, but have heard a lot. It's that thing that creates illusions, isn't it?
I glanced around frantically. Where's Uchiha? Damn. I stopped paying my attention for a second and now he's gone!
I roamed the trees with my eyes, searching for a glint of him. Nothing. His chakra was somewhere close, but I couldn't get the grasp where.
A bunch of shurikens flew at me and I jumped to the left, however, one of it stabbed my right shoulder and I yelped in pain, clutching my new wound. Where is that asshole? The weapons came from that side.
I grabbed another pair of kunais and threw them, but no sound reached my ears. Did I miss...?
'You're pathetic.'
What...? Where is his voice coming from?
'You and your feelings for him... They give me disgust.'
I gritted my teeth and was already about to snap back something nasty, but I felt something hard pressed against my neck. Cold steel.
'Give up already.'
Sasuke was standing behind my back. His hot breathing was hitting my ear, sending shiver down my spine. How could I be so careless...?
