This Life (Naruto Fanfic)

What's Gonna Work? Teamwork! - Part Two

Kaylie's POV

I groaned inwardly as I noticed the stares of the fanboys, as I walked by.

I've been in Suna for a few months, and the Kazekage deemed me 'trustworthy enough to stay'. Like, I didn't know shit about all this when I first came here. I able to do about as much damage as a fly. A large, human-sized fly.

I adjusted my headband around my neck, so it was more comfortable, and continued my walk to the Academy. I reached it, walked into my classroom, and took my usual spot in the back of the room one seat away from a seat next to a window.

Instantly, boys crowded my desk and began hounding me, but I merely ignored them and glared at my desk. "Hn."

Gaara, Temari, and Kankuro also entered the room and took their usual spots; Temari on my left, Gaara on my right, and Kankuro beside him.

As soon as Gaara sat, all of the boys scattered. Maybe they thought he would eat them? I mean... He might try but he won't if I'm here.

I zoned out as Kuzo Sensei walked in. He said something about teams and the number four, then I stopped listening. I'm too lazy for my own good...

I was instantly jolted back to reality, though, as the gold and emerald ring I had began to glow. Weird. It's never done this before...

"Team Three: Gaara, Temari, Kankuro, and Kaylie." Kuzo said. I glanced up, a bit agitated, and shrugged, before looking back at my ring. The brightness began to fade, and I ignored the look that Gaara sent me.

Kuzo rattled off more names, and I decided to glare at the ceiling. Stupid ceiling shouldn't have looked at me funny!

Oh, now this bitch wants to have a glaring contest? Hell naw. It's on you white ass fucker!

I was snapped out of my contest with the ceiling as Temari poked me in the face.

"We're going to meet our sensei after lunch. Come on, let's go." She said, dragging me away to the place of doom known as the lunch room.

~~~~~

I sat boredly on the roof of the academy with Gaara, Kankuro, and Temari, waiting for our sensei. We were a bit early to the meeting place, but ehh, better early than late, right?

I moistened my lips by licking them with my abnormally long tongue. It was gross, almost snake-like. I sighed and sat back and glanced around.

As if this was planned, our new Sensei appeared.

"My name is Baki. I'll be your new Sensei for Team Three. Who's who?" He asked.

"Kaylie." I said raising a hand.

"Gaara."

"Kankuro."

"Temari."

"Alright. Meet me at the First Training Grounds tomorrow at 6am for a test of worth. If you are late, you will run 100 laps around the village. Don't eat. You're dismissed." He grunted, then disappeared to wherever.

Well then, someone's grumpy...

~~~~~~~

I groaned inwardly as I dragged myself out of bed. It's 4:30 AM! Yes, I literally have to get up this early if I want to be there on time.

I grabbed an outfit from my drawer and a towel, then walked to the bathroom and waited patiently for whoever was inside to come out.

After about five minutes, I knocked.

"Come in." A calm voice said.

I opened the door cautiously. I stepped in and found Gaara sitting in the windowsill, his gourd on the floor.
