Naruto: Kazumi Uchiha

Battle on the Bridge! Zabuza Returns!!

"Good morning, everyone." Sakura yawned.

"Naruto's not here. Looks like he was out all night again." Tazuna announced.

"He's gone completely crazy. He's out climbing trees in the dark. He could be dead by now, you know, from using up too much of his chakra." Sakura sassed.

"Well, I certainly hope he's okay. A child spending the night in the woods alone.." Tsunami said in a worryingly tone.

"There's nothing to worry about. Naruto is a goofy kid, but he's also a full-fledged ninja. He can handle himself." Kakashi assured her.

"Sakura's right. Naruto is such a loser. He's probably lying out there dead somewhere." Sasuke commented.

"How can you two say that? Don't you have any trust in Naruto? If he was in your shoes, he'd be hoping you two were perfectly fine. Obviously the feeling isn't mutual." I grunted. "Whatever. I'm going to look for him."

I got up from the table and walked out of the door.

"-Kazumi."

I looked behind me, only to find Sasuke.

"What do you want?"

"Were you really going to go alone? To find Naruto?" He questioned.

"Well, yeah. None of you wanted to help. Besides, he's most likely just in these woods here somewhere. Since he's been training and all." I responded.

"I'm coming with you." He mumbled.

"What was that? Sorry, I couldn't really hear you. Mind repeating it for me?" I chuckled.

"Shut up, Kazumi." He grunted. "I'm only coming so I can see how much of a loser he really is."

Yeah, right. He worries over Naruto. When will he ever admit it? That goes for Naruto, too. These two boys really do care for each other, even if they don't act like it.

Me and Sasuke started walking through the forest, hoping to find Naruto. It took awhile, but we finally found him.

Although, he wasn't the only person we found. He was with someone, a boy.

We walked past him, not saying a word.

"Oh, I've seen a lot of weird things in my life before, but this one takes the cake." Naruto babbled.

Geez, has he not even noticed our presence?

Sasuke walked over to Naruto, hitting him on the head.

"Hey! What was that for?" He complained.

"You twerp. Did you just forget about breakfast? You're such a loser." Sasuke scolded him.

Naruto and Sasuke then began to train again. I decided to join in because we probably need all of the training we can get.

We looked at the ground, seeing Sakura and Kakashi standing before us.

Naruto threw a kunai at them so they'd be aware that he finally did it, he finally climbed the tree.

"Whoa. Naruto can climb that high now using his chakra? That's great." Sakura praised him.

"Well, he was determined. When he sets his mind onto something, he's bound to do it." I giggled, looking at Naruto.

"What do you think? High enough for you guys? I mean, it's a long way down, huh?" He chortled.
