Princess of the Dragon Clan [ Kakashi Hatake X OC Romance ] Book 1 Complete

Chapter 18 Chunin Exams Part 2

            It was the following morning, and the sun was hardly rising. It was way too early for me to be up. I kept yawning the whole way to the training grounds. When I came through the entrance, I saw the three genin positioned around a center post talking with each other. They looked livelier than I did, that was for sure. I looked around, and surprise, surprise, no Kakashi yet. I crossed my arms and rolled my eyes before the three genin. Kakashi is never on time… for anything. He is always late, no matter what. Even when he sets the time to meet…he is still late. I swear I will beat him down when he walks through that entrance.

            As I stood before the three, they waved and said good morning.

            “Good morning Sensei!...do you know where Kakashi Sensei is?”

            I shook my head, and as I did, I got a glimpse of Kakashi making his way slowly over to us. I pointed over at him, and Naruto followed. When he saw Kakashi, he became furious, too. He started to curse at Kakashi, saying how early he had been up, how late Kakashi was, and how it was cutting into training time…Kakashi didn’t respond to him; it didn’t even seem like he was paying him any mind at all.

            “Good morning, everyone, sorry I was late…I got lost on the path of life…”

            He looked at me and cut his sentence off when he saw my tired death glare. He knew not to push me right now. He cleared his throat as he looked back at the three genin.

            “I want to outline how most of the next two weeks will look. They will consist of us meeting here every morning at this time…When everyone arrives, the day will start separated. Sakura and Naruto will be with Isamu here on the grounds, and Sasuke will come with me. Towards the end of the day, we will meet back up and spend the last few hours trading off…Isamu has the training scenarios she will go through, and I have mine.”

            The three genin nodded in unison but didn’t say a word. They all were waiting to see what Kakashi would say next.

            “Well, with that…Sasuke, shall we?...don’t go too hard on those two, Isamu, you got it?”

            I could hear the sarcastic, kidding tone. I was about to throw a rock at him, but my energy was too low, so I  watched them walk away. Once they were gone, I put my focus on Sakura and Naruto. The first training scenario I have set up is team building. It will be focused on having those two collaborate and work together if they want to complete the scenario.

            “Alright, you two…first training scenario I have will be this…”

            I took one of my kunai and placed it on top of a wooden post in the middle of the ground. I gestured up to the kunai and pointed back at the two.

            “Your job is to force me away from this post and retrieve that kunai. Once you have retrieved the kunai, the training session will be over.”

            The two looked at me and then at each other with worry. I smirked and got into position in front of the post.

            “Come on guys…it shouldn’t be too hard…whenever you are ready, you can start.”

            They nodded as they jumped to opposite sides of the grounds, hiding within the tree line. I stood there momentarily; I could sense the two’s chakra force. I saw that they were to the right of me, crouched, and looked like they were planning a strategy…good, that’s what they needed to do.

            I turned my focus over to my right, waiting for them to come out; I then saw Naruto start charging at me. He had his kunai, and as he got closer, he aimed and threw the kunai at me. I quickly dodged it and met Naruto swiftly. When we were in the middle of the ground, I fell, swiping my leg so that it caught Naruto, forcing him to the ground. As soon as Naruto hit the ground, I saw Sakura coming in from the left. She began throwing her shuriken, and I jumped and dodged them. I landed in a crouched position on the wooden post. I saw Naruto rubbing his back, trying to get up as Sakura ran to help him.
