Konoha's New Yellow Flash

The Forest of Chakra.

We went to see how Kakashi was doing and he was conscious, thank god. I walked over and crouched next to him. "You know, I appreciate you protecting us, but that's all kind of useless if you pass out on us." I stated.

"Sorry." I grinned and pat his hair. "It's fine. Luckily we didn't run into any more trouble."

He nodded before checking me for my injuries. I smiled and stood. "I'm fine. The gash on my stomach wasn't deep. And Naruto and Sasuke's wounds are only minor."

He sighed in relief. Then we started a lesson about the elite ninjas. As to why Tracker Ninjas are there.

My soul throbbed. I smell . . . octopus balls. Only one chakra smells like that. Could it be? Is he still alive?

I tugged on Kakashi's sleeve. He looked over at me in confusion. I looked down at his futon. "I smell chakra. It smells like octopus balls."

He furrowed his eyebrows. "Each person has their unique smell in chakra. Yours smells like a storm. Naruto's smells like a fox, Sasuke smells like a campfire, and Sakura smells like the oranges. Zabuza's smells like octopus balls."

His eye widened. Then I thought about it a bit and my eyes widened. "Flowers. There was a smell with Zabuza's! It's the same as the Tracker Ninjas!" at this Kakashi sat up straight, eye wider than ever.

"Ah! I'm such an idiot! The smell! The senbon needles! The reason he didn't take just the head or worked on it right there!"

How could I have been so stupid?! "What's the matter?" Sakura asked as she looked between Kakashi and me.

I rubbed my head hard. "Here's the truth. Zabuza still alive." The others were shocked and I felt ashamed. Why? Why can't I even do one thing?

Naruto and Sakura tried to reason he's dead, but Kakashi explained it.

So that boy, who saved me, deceived us. How could I be so stupid? I let that kid be close to Naruto. "How will we fight him when you're like this?" Sakura asked.

Kakashi chuckled. "I can still train you."

"Hold on! A little last minute training won't defeat Zabuza! You could barely defeat him even with your sharingan. We have to be reasonable about this."

I thought about it. She had a point. But then Kakashi was talking about how we've grown. "I don't believe it, and nothing's going to be good!" a little voice yelled at Naruto.

We turned to see a little boy in a fisher man's cap. Well that made Naruto mad, but Tazuna called him Inari and they hugged. So Tazuna's a grandpa huh? Well his daughter's a beauty, it's no wonder.

So then his mom started scolding the child. Inari glared at us and claimed we'll die. As you can see this riled up Naruto. Like, a lot. So Naruto followed after him.

I sighed and followed as well. Got to keep him from hitting a kid. "Naruto, wait-"

I was caught off when we looked through the door to see Inari crying at the picture of his father. It hit home to Naruto and I. So, his father died huh? I guess we can kind of understand that. But then again, we wouldn't we never knew our parents. So we couldn't possibly know.

~~

We went on to training later. "Alright, training starts now." We stood out near the house and waited for Kakashi to tell us what to do.

"First, we will begin the review of chakra. The ninja's basic source of power. Understanding chakra is essential."

I groaned loudly and buried my head in Sasuke's back as I leaned on him. "We already know that." Sasuke said.

Thank you! "He's right! A long time ago we learned about-"

"If you say catra I will end you." I said, my face still buried in Sasuke's back. So Kakashi had Sakura explain it to Naruto. I droned out. "This is so boring!" I whispered as I put my arm on Sasuke's shoulder. He nodded.

So Kakashi started telling us we didn't even scratch the surface of chakra.

"Climb a tree." I blinked. He wants us to climb a tree?

.

.

.

Did he hit his head too hard? Climbing a tree is easy. "You're kidding." Sakura said. "Am I? Let's see." He performed a sign and I noticed chakra gathering in his feet. Huh? What's he planning? He walked to a tree and put one foot on before walking up the tree.

Whoa! That's so cool! I nearly started squealing but refrained from doing so. He then proceeded to walk upside down on a branch. "How does this help us fight Zabuza?" Sakura asked.

"It's the only way to fight him Sakura. That's the whole point of this training. First you'll learn to draw a precise amount of chakra to a precise point. This is difficult, even for advance ninja. That's why I was surprised that Miyu was able to keep up a certain amount of chakra in her attacks."

Oh. So I guess that's what I do. I didn't know that. He threw a kunai down at each of us. "Use the kunai knife to mark the tree at the highest point you can climb, without using your hands. Then try to get pass that mark the next time, and the next, and so on. At first you'll need to run at the tree to get momentum. Ready?"

We picked up our kunai's and prepared. I took a deep breath and focused. I didn't need to perform the sign anymore, but I still need to add an adequate amount. I watched and saw my friend's chakra. Sakura had a decent balance, Sasuke had too much, and Naruto didn't have enough.

Mine seemed alright so we ran. Naruto didn't make it to his third step. Sasuke made it higher, but not so well. He used too much and he bounced off the tree. Sakura made it to a low branch and I kept running.

I kept on walking to the top and stared down. "Uhm . . . Kakashi? Naruto? I don't know what to do!" I yelled. They all looked up at me with wide eyes, even Sakura. I clung to the top of the tree in horror.

"Well, looks like the females of the squad are the most advanced in chakra control. Well done Miyu, Sakura." Yeah, yeah, I climbed a tree big whoop. How the hell am I supposed to get down?!

This is a bit terrifying. "Well, not only do Miyu and Sakura understand chakra, they can control and maintain it as well. We spoke about someone becoming Hokage one day didn't we? Seems Miyu and Sakura have the best chance of that wouldn't you say? As for the great Uchiha clan, maybe they're not so great after all."

I glared at Kakashi from his tree and jumped towards him before landing a kick to his stomach. He flew off and I flashed behind him and caught him as we landed.

I set him down and huffed at his pained expression. "Stop bullying Naruto! And don't be mean to Sasuke either!" he groaned and stood. "My bad." He grumbled. Hmpf. Serves him right. The ungrateful dog.

I looked over at the boys. Their motivation seems to have spiked.

So the day went on with Naruto and Sasuke trying to get up the trees. I sat down and kept an eye on them. I've managed to climb up all the way to the top eight times in a row. So Kakashi said I didn't need to do it anymore.

I watched as Naruto turned and walked over to me. "Hey Miyu, you're good at this, how about some advice? But please don't tell Sasuke I asked. Please?! Please?!" I smiled at my brother.

I ruffled his hair. "Alright big bro, I'll let you in on it. "Imagine your body as blue fire. Then think about the fire itself and imagine it flowing to your feet. You have too little, so add some more. Then you should be fine."

He grinned and ran back over to his tree.

Naruto. My brother has the Nine Tailed Fox sealed in him. Combined with his original chakra, his chakra supply surpasses Kakashi, Sasuke, Sakura, and I put together.

I wonder what will become of him. For most of my life, it's always been dedicated to protecting Naruto. That's why I have trouble making friends. But that's not his fault. I'm the one doing it. So why? Why do I feel like he won't need me in the future? What will I do when that happens?

I don't know. But right now, I have Naruto, Sasuke, Sakura, and Kakashi. I think I'll be fine. But all good things come to an end.
