Ceiren POV
"Hello there. Sorry I'm late. I'm afraid I got lost on the path of life..."
I couldn't contain my smile.
""YOU LIAR"" - "Hello sensei~"
My and Naruto and Sakura's "greetings" seemed to coincide with each other. Oh well~
Really nice weather today though.
"YOU SAID THIS WAS AN EMERGENCY MEETING, SO WHY ARE YOU LATE?!?!?!?"
...Sakura seems to be somewhat mad.
Kakashi just smiled his signature closed-eye smile and scratched the back of his head, looking humble.
"Well, yes, now that you mention it... this is an emergency meeting..."
He looked up at us with twinkling eyes.
"Have you heard of the chuunin exams?"
I saw Naruto nodding enthusiastically, saying something about sand ninja. Sakura just nodded and Sasuke let out a hn. Figures.
I remembered the chuunin exams from the anime. Actually, now that I think about it, wasn't Kakashi supposed to give us the applications the day that we met up with the sand shinobi? It's already been five days since then...
A slight sinking feeling hit my stomach.
Kakashi nodded resolutely, as if proud that his student were so knowledgeable. But for some reason, I just keep getting the vibes that he wants to get brownie points with us for something...
"Well, I'm glad you know what it's all about. That makes things easier. This might be sudden, but I recommended you for the chuunin exams. Here are your application forms."
He held out four slips of paper with some writing and an official looking stamp on them. We each took the paper with our name on it. I was seriously feeling like something was amiss though...
"So, you know that passing the chuunin exams will promote you from genin to chuunin, right? It's an important step in the career of every shinobi-"
I wanted to snort. Yeah right, Kakashi you should have seen Sasuke and Naruto in canon.
Those genin monsters...
"- and it's completely voluntary. If you don't feel ready, you can just try again next year."
I frowned slightly. The chuunin exams this time centered a lot around teamwork. Especially the first and second part. In the first two, you need to have a complete team to participate...
