Fallen Angel

7. Plan

I quickly evacuated the scene when that Kakashi had been a clone. Our sensei was no fool, and I sensed a battle rising between Sasuke and Kakashi. I jumped from tree to tree until I couldn't sense anyone.

I sat down and began to think. This survival test didn't make any sense to me. Why skip breakfast? He said it would cause us to throw up, but with the way things are going, it's impossible. No way we're going to throw up

Naruto's clones failed, due to Kakashi using the substitution jutsu which meant clones where pointless against him. Even if you spawn in dozens of them like Naruto, they would still be pointless.

Sneak attacks don't work, based on what Sasuke had done. Kakashi was definitely still around since a few minutes ago I heard Sakura scream.

There was only one way we could get a bell. "Working together." I whispered.
That was the point of this exercise! Kakashi wanted us to skip breakfast, already lowering our moods. No way Sasuke would team with me, his ego is as tall as the Empire State Building. Sakura hates me, and Naruto has to do everything himself. I was screwed.

I guess I'm not getting a bell.

Suddenly a chill went down my back. I turned around to see Kakashi standing behind me. "So you've figured it out "

I nodded my head slowly. "Teamwork." I don't know if he smiled, but I'm pretty sure he did. "Your a lot smarter than the other two, that is when you want to be."

"There's no way I'm going to get a bell. This squads ego is the size of the entire Land of Fire. Sasuke thinks he's above everyone else, so he wouldn't work with me. Sakura hates me and Naruto, and the only person she would team with would be Sasuke. But Sasuke's ego is too big so that eliminates Sakura and Sasuke, leaving Naruto who wants to show everyone he is stronger then we think. Naruto is probably my closest chance." Kakashi nodded. "If you can get to him." Wait what.

Without another word I was tied to a tree. And Kakashi was gone.

"NARUTO!" I yelled, but heard nothing. "ANYBODY?" Nothing.

"Dang it Kakashi!" I said through gritted teeth

I suddenly got an idea. I remembered something my mom had told me about focusing chakra into your hands. Chakra could cut almost anything, and I'm willing to bet rope is one of those things.

It was mostly used by medical ninja, but I think it would work here. I was gonna be a medical ninja anyway, so why not start now?

I closed my eyes and focused on my hand. It started to buzz and when I looked down my hand was glowing green. I pulled it up towards the rope, and surely the rope snapped and I was free.

Now to go help my squad mates.

I arrived at the scene to see Sakura laying on the ground, a few feet from Sasuke, who's head was sticking out the ground. I burst out laughing. "Having some trouble there Duckbutt?" He glared as I laughed.

"Sakura! Wake up!" She didn't move.
"I didn't want to have to do this, but you leave me no choice!" I slapped her. She shot straight up.

"What was that fo-" She stopped her sentence midway when she saw Sasuke. Then she fainted. " I'll help her later."

I walked over to Sasuke. "Hurry up and get me out baka." I smiled and began walking around him.

"Well well well, looks like Mr.Uchiha's in quite the predicament." You could practically feel the anger radiating off of him. "Get me out!" I smiled.

"What's the magic word?" He sighed.
"Please?" I smiled and walked over to him, grabbing the collar of his shirt.

"One,
Two,
Three!"

I pulled straight up and he shot up out of the ground. He stood next to me and dusted himself off. "Now what do you say?"

"Thanks." I smiled and clapped. "You said thank you!"

He rolled his eyes and turned to face the forest. I threw a kunai towards Naruto and sliced the rope, causing him to fall on his face. He sat up and rubbed his head.

"That hurt..." He mumbled while anime crying. I walked over to the river and filled up my hands with water. Then I walked over to Sakura.

"Wake up!" She didn't even twitch.
"Oh well." I poured the water on her face and she shot up.

"Seriously? First you slap me, and now you pour water on me!" I stuck my tongue out at her.

"At least I helped you guys! Ungrateful people." I turned around to see Naruto and Sasuke gone. "Wha-" I looked behind me to see Sakura gone.

Seriously guys? I sat down criss cross applesauce, knowing I was not going to get a bell. I laid back flatly on the ground. "I am sooo bored."

Suddenly I heard a stick crack. With pure instinct I threw a kunai. Sasuke caught it with his finger. "Come on," I hesitated at first, then began running behind him.

We came to the Kia stone where there where four poles. Naruto was tied to one. Kakashi stood next to him with Sakura. I walked over to Naruto and poked his forehead.

"What happened to you?" He looked away. "Naruto here tried to cheat, automatically causing him to get tied to the pole." I shook my head, frowning. "Cheaters never win Naruto." He looked away, embarrassed.

Kakashi said he would give us another chance, then gave Sakura, Sasuke and I food and specifically told us not to share food with Naruto.

As soon as he left, I scooted next to Naruto. Then I got a big spoonful of food and stuck it in his mouth.
He swallowed the food then looked at me shocked. "Kiamie, your gonna get sent back to the Academy! Aren't you hungry?"

I smiled and gave him another spoonful. "I ate breakfast." Suddenly Sakura gave him her food, and so did Sasuke. "You need your energy if we want this team to function properly." Sasuke said matter of factly. "I don't care if I go back to the Academy, I'm not going to let my teammate starve." I said.

Suddenly Kakashi was standing behind us. "I told you what would happen if you gave him food..." I smirked.

"Just tell them Kakashi." He jumped back. "H-how did you even...?" I looked at him evilly. "I know all." Suddenly Sakura and Sasuke where backing away from me.

"Well tell them Kakashi!"

"You all passed!"
