Go! Fight! Win! In the name of Masashi Kishimoto! 💕)

1st P.O.V.
"Sakura-chan?!" I heard the desperation in Naruto's voice from a distance. I sighed hopelessly. "Poor guy, he needs help."

"You know the survival test is tomorrow morning right?" I slowly turned my head towards the sound of Kakashi's voice and blinked "You're point?" He shook his head fondly.

"Did you hear what I told the kids?" He asked leaning his back against the railing beside me. "Yes, and if my knowledge is right then this won't be the first group that's failed your test." He leaned forward in what I guess was interest. "Really now?"

"You; an ex-anbu, put them against each other." I lifted my head in a slight glare. He sweat-dropped.
"You know the team already hates each other and you only made it worse with your little speech back there." I turned around so my back was pressed against the railing and crossed my arms over my chest.

Kakashi let out a nervous chuckle "You think?" I mock-glared at him. "Well as of right now they'll never realize the test has something to do with teamwork. Naruto might but he and Sasuke don't rely on others easily. Sakura's smart yes but her interests aren't for the team as a whole. The Leaf has thrived on the aspect teamwork for generations. Take the Ino-Shika-Cho squad that graduated this year for example. Prime definition of teamwork." I sighed turning back around and stuffed my hands in my pockets. Kakashi took out his MakeOut Paradise and started reading the book, but I knew he was listening.

He always does that when he has nothing else to say, probably because he realized I'm right and there's no point in arguing about it.
Before that though, every time we'd debate on something that I was right about, we'd end up in the hospital for a couple of days. We'd usually be placed in the room too, though unlike him I only stayed for a day or two.

I watched as Naruto broke from the group and ran home. "Naruto goes with his gut 95% of the time." I looked towards Sakura who was turning away from the boys and to her her home. "I don't think Sakura understands completely what being a ninja is all about." Kakashi snickered. He laughs now but he's the one that's got to teach the fangirl.
"As for Sasuke?" I turned my attention to said Uchiha as he walked into his apartment. "I believe he's going to to cope better when he avenges his clan." I huffed.

"Okay. What are you going do about it then?" Kakashi's question stopped me from almost over-thinking. "Well, if I'm taking the test as well then," I scratched my head. "hm, I guess I have an idea that'd work." I put my hand down and looked at the birds that were flying up ahead. "They are too many factors though."
I sighed in disappointment and plopped my head back on the rail. I tilted my head back towards Kakashi. "What do you think I should do?" A little pink dusted the top of his mask. "Good question." He paused. "You know for an ex-civilian you sure have a lot of knowledge about the ninja world." I nodded my head taking a step back from the rail. "Well I've studied almost every night while I've been working at the tower. Of course I know a lot." I rolled my eyes good-naturedly.

The visible part of Kakashi's face was getting more red by the second. "Uhh, Kakashi? Are you feeling alright?" My playful smile dropped into a concerned frown.
I put the back of my hand against his reddening forehead so I could check his temperature. 'He feels a little warm, but other than that he seems fine. He should be better by tomorrow.' "Y-yea." He stopped his stuttering with a short cough. "I'm alright. See you tomorrow Hiro-kun." Kakashi waved goodbye and used his favorite teleportation jutsu. He was gone before I could say anything else.
"Strange men in Konaha." I shrugged my shoulders before turning around and walking back downstairs.
