"I don't know how to feel.. I've never felt a mother's love."
"I see something in you that I've never seen in anyone. Great power."
"I'm your protector. I've been protecting you all this years- Since you were a kid."
"Please, save me."
When a 12 yea...

Team 7 were nearing the check-in room, about to pass through the pillars when they heard a voice.
"Hey you, with the attitude and the weird-looking one. Hold on."
"Huh?" The four Genin looked behind them with confused faces only to see Lee standing on the next floor above them.
"Wait- who's the weird-looking one?! Because it ain't me!" M/n yelled, raising his hand in a fist as a threat to beat the boy up. "It's prolly Sasuke the weird one."
Sakura's expression changed into a shocked one, seeing once again the boy who basically asked her to be his girlfriend.
"What do you want?" Sasuke asked with an annoyed tone.
"I want to fight you both, right here and right now."
"Uhm, what?" M/n smiled in surprise, not expecting Lee to demand a fight with Sasuke and himself. 'He must be strong to want a 2 vs 1.'
"You want to fight us here and now, huh?" Sasuke cleared any misunderstanding, not amused by Lee's request.
"Yes." Rock Lee jumped down in front of them, landing on his knees and used his hand to soften the impact. He stood up and pointed at himself. "My name is Rock Lee. You said it was common courtesy for a challenger to give his own name first, right? Sasuke Uchiha?"
"Hm." Sasuke perked up at his name being called but held no interest in it. "So you know me."
Lee stood in a fighting position. "I challenge you and M/n. Everyone is always talking about the Uchiha clan and this h/c haired boy and how great they are. I want to see if it is true. I figure you will be a good test for me."
"Wait- people talk about me?" M/n smile turned into a proud smirk. "What do they say about me? Do I have fans? Can't believe I have a fanbase about me."
Sasuke clicked his tongue and slapped M/n to the ground. "Shut up, idiot."
"Ouch, you hit really hard, you know that?" M/n stood up, massaging the bump on his head.
"And also—" Lee turned his gaze towards Sakura, who immediately shuddered. His cheeks flushed with a lovey dovey look. "Oh, Sakura! I love you!"
Sakura screamed in horror and disbelief, her fingers twitching as she shook her head left and right. "Those eyebrows can't be real. No! Your hairstyle is horrible, too. And those eyebrows are so bushy! You're such a weirdo!"
