Naruto: Dreams Unraveled

Dealings of Sorts

The next morning I found myself wondering around the village in search of someone... specifically my sensei. For some strange reason, I was being tailed by the sand siblings. Why? No clue! But at any rate, I played dumb. I was looking around until I spotted the restaurant Jasuminbā...

Yep, found her.

From the outside it would have looked like this: pause and tilt my head to the side, arms still crossed. Disappeared casually into the restaurant without a word. Let a few seconds of peace pass as suddenly, a busty lady with long silver hair comes flying out the entrance into the solid brick wall on the other side of the dusty street and me walk out like nothing had happened.

"You brat!" The lady shook her fist at me, getting to her feet, rather wobbly. "Your late," I growled. She then squinted at me and then laughed in her drunk state, "Oh, Holota! iis jus yous." I heavily sighed as I hung my head, "I'm doomed." "So, whas up?" She continued. "You saw Jiraiya didn't you?" I blurted out, still unphased... I knew better than to use his name against her.

The lady then quickly became pissed as she threw four kunai at me. I turned to the side as one went behind my back, over my chest, flipped as one went between my legs, got to my feet and turned, catching the last between my teeth flawlessly. She looked at me dumbfounded, then threw a fit, "Damn it!"

I sighed, dropping the kunai in my mouth into my hands, "Look, I need your help. I've been taught by Araku and have passed the final stages in my training. I've also been able to create a jutsu, though you may find it extremely dangerous and stupid, I think I've mastered it and want you to let me know what you think... and I'm guessing you've talked to Kisuka?"

The lady seemed to have sobered up at an impeccable rate, "Really, you got past Araku's training? Surprised your still alive... What kind of Jutsu? And yes, I've talked to Kisuka." "A Jutsu requiring Kyuketsuki and my training will be taken out of the village, right?" I replied. "That stupid bat? Really, kid?" She scratched her head, "Well, yes, we don't really have a choice but to take you're training outside the village considering its highly top secret."

 I fist pumped the air, but before I could shout, 'Yes!' she replied with, "But you're going to be stuck here for a week first." My head then dropped again, "Why?" "Because, it's going to be instructed within the Hyuga Compound," My head shot up at this, "You're training will still be top secret, and within the walls. No one will be able to see what you're going to be taught. The head of the Hyuga have agreed to take you and I in and begin your training... You ready to train till your dead? It's been awhile."

She was now smirking at me, as I shot my smirk back, crossing my arms again, "You know it... Hitsugaya-sensei." "That's my girl!" She shouted, "You know the drill!" I just scoffed and mumbled below my breath so only she could hear me, "Not today, we have an audience." She just gave me a weird face before shrugging, "Fine, I'll race you there." I smirked again as I 'poofed!' only hearing her scream, "That's not what I meant, you cheating brat!"

It was now a day before the third rounds and Hitsugaya had dropped me off at the hospital. I was training out in the garden as Nanami watched me intently. "So, if you do real well you get to become a Chunin?" She asked, a bit perky. "That's pretty much it," I replied as I was manipulating fire and water at the same time, my eyes closed. "And it's tomorrow, right?" She continued. I just responded with a calm, "Yes."

But  I suddenly felt something off as I felt Nanami's voice fade into the wind. Naruto, Shika, Lee... and Gaara? That couldn't be good. How long had they been there? My water fell to the ground as my fire depleted into the air. "Holota?" Nanami asked. "Lee..." I whispered out, before I sprinted into the hospital replying to Nanami with, "I'll be right back!" Thankfully she just stayed put.
