Part 5

-Sakura's POV-

So, here we are right now... waiting for sensei to arrive...

Seriously dude, we've been like waiting for like 4 freakin hours now!

If sensei answers me with some crappy lie I really could just punch his face... okay no offense on that...

And another reason on why I'm mad at sensei because.... I am really drowning in a pool of freakin awkwardness here!

You know because Sasuke's here and he's not like.... you know our ...... friend anymore.... so it really sucks like hell....

I mean basically the 3 of us here are like statues or something.... everyone was totally silent! And I have no idea on what to do in this situation!

-sigh- Alright...since telling you all about the "waiting" is really boring and you might sleep on me... I'll skip that part then.

So yeah, as I was saying after hours of waiting sensei came eventually... and it was freakin 9:00 in the morning!

Please don't tell me he woke up late and almost completely forgot about us... -sigh- it can't be helped anyway...

"Sensei... do you not have a watch or something? Its already 9 and you told us to be here at 5!" I was the first one to speak up.

"Yeah!" Naruto joined in.

Sasuke.... well he just you know looked at sensei expecting an answer and explanation.

"I did that on purpose..." was his awesome reply...

"What?!?!" I almost shouted.

Goodness, you made us wait for hours... and say you did it all in purpose?....

"But why?" asked Naruto.

 "You will see later on," replied sensei.

"Well then, lets get on with the test sensei..." said Sasuke quietly.

"Pretty excited are we Sasuke?" commented sensei back.

"I'm not, I just want to get this test done and train afterwards," Sasuke said cooly.

"-sigh- Alright listen up! I'll tell you how to pass this test... I'm only giving instructions once so you 3 better pay close attention okay?" said sensei turning serious now.

After that I turned serious now....

I can also feel Naruto and Sasuke all turn their full attention to sensei.

"Alright, you see these 2 bells?" he held up 2 small bells...

You know the one thats usually found in your pet accessories? Yeah that kind of bell...

"Either 2 of you needs to get the bell from me before noon comes," he continued. 

"Any questions?"

2 bells.... each has to get 1 bell.... so that makes 2 people.... but we're 3!

"Sensei, you do know we're 3 right?" I said as soon as I realized this.

"Yes, I do know Sakura," answered sensei.

"So then, if you have 2 bells then that means only 2 people will pass right?

 He nodded.

 "That means only 2 out of the 3 of us are gonna pass right?"

"Yep," he replied.

"But-"

"Do you have any more questions Sakura?"

"No more sensei..."
