Falling into Naruto, literally!!

Chapter 16

"Yuki-neechan! You're gonna be late!"

I bolted upright, "Huh? What? Where? I don't have training today" I muttered as I fell back onto my bed, my arms too tired to hold up my limp body. "Nee-chan! You have to take us to Konohamaru! And you have to go to the Chunin exams!"

Chunin exams... wasn't that tomorrow? What day is it today?

The cogs inside my head slowly started turning, the information provided slowly being worked out whilst my mind brought up fuddled memories from yesterday. I smacked my lips and hummed, throwing my arm over my eyes and frowning as I tried to think clearly after just being woken from a deep - and for once - peaceful sleep.

The Chunin exams... wait a minute.

My eyes snapped open and darted to the small clock beside my bed, the green digits flashing the numbers seven and thirty-five in a bright colour against the dark background."Gah! I'm so late!" I screeched as I bolted out of bed and into my bathroom, not stopping in my stride even after I slammed face first into the ground, courtesy of my feet having been tangled in the sheets.

I brushed my hair and my teeth at the same time whilst scurrying around to look for my clothes, my eyes darting to the clock every five seconds, just to make sure the time didn't suddenly change from seven something to eight. Faitā was standing at the door, her head tilted to the side as she watched me scurry around like a headless chicken, not knowing if she should try and help or avoid getting caught in the crossfire of clothes, scrolls and weapons being thrown through the air and towards a bag on the bed.

After finally picking out my outfit for the day, I started hopping around the room, pulling on my underwear first as I tried to double check that I had everything for the upcoming tests today. Even though I had already checked my bag three times last night, I couldn't help but be extra careful with these kinds of things, most of the time.

I put on a black and red sleeveless dress that hugged my body tightly, a long sleeved black waist cape with red accents. I pulled on a pair of black thigh high socks with red accents and a red small bow at the top. I decided that today's theme was gonna be matching black and red, if you haven't noticed yet.

I picked a pair of black boots that folded over at the end with white lining the inside. There were red ribbons tied around the boots which also had a red ribbon sowed into the white material of the boot, thin but standing bold in contrast to the black and white. The boots fit snug and comfortable on my feet, effectively making them one of the best travel shoes for ninja-ing, at least, for me.

I clipped on a black belt with a sword holster on my right side whilst my weapon pouch sat on my left leg, filled to the brim with kunais, shurikans, one or two smoke bombs and the like. I took out my black with blue accented sword from one of my storage seals before sheathing it into its holster.

I kept my other twin sword in the storage seal which I had placed into my small back pack, along with a few other scrolls that had storage seals on them as well. They had food, first aid, water and a sleeping bag in them, along with some anti-dotes of a few poisons that I could stumble upon, the weapons of nature usually being used by contestants.

I left my hair loose but kept a few hair-bands with me just in case, after all, I wouldn't want to cut my hair off just because it got annoying. Although, I'll admit, long hair could be a bit of a pain sometimes with knots and all that, but it also had its perks. 

I proceeded to place a red and white bow on my head with a red diamond in the middle, the jewel glinting in the sun whenever I moved. It somehow completed the look of my outfit, colouring in just that bit that I needed to round off my image.
