INCARNATE OF OBITO UCHIHA

Chapter 3: I Wanna Be The Hokage!

"Minato-Sensei?"

"Who? Wha-? Where?" the blonde boy exclaimed as he looked around them, and then gave Sakura a weird look. He didn't see anyone around here. Who is she talking to? He scratched the back of his head and asked sheepishly "Hey, I didn't know there was any teacher by the name of Minato-Sensei in our Academy."

Her mind whirled with thoughts that were not her own, all of them laced with sadness and guilt. She did not understand even a bit of what was happening, just the fact that her Inner seemed to be miffed about something and was going out of control. When her headache seemed to get worse, she whimpered in pain and clutched her head, and screamed in her mind, 'Inner! Stop! You're hurting me!'

That seemed to do the trick as Inner immediately took charge and banned the thoughts away in a corner of her mind, leaving poor Sakura nursing a headache, and some irritation in her right eye.

'What the hell just happened?' She asked to her Inner, but it seems like he is not in the mood to answer her question.

Huffing at his lack of response, she looked at the blonde boy in front of her, who was waving his hand in front of her.

"What ?" She snapped at the boy, who jumped back in fright.

"Ano, you just suddenly started looking at nothing creepily, and didn't even answer me even when I called you." Naruto said as he huffed.

Sakura shrugged and said "Eh, whatever."

The blonde boy squinted his blue eyes at her and said, "You're weird."

"Thanks for stating the obvious." She said sarcastically, rubbing her right eye a bit as the irritation still did not go away. Gah, looks like something must've gotten into her right eye. She'd just have to wash it with cold water. "By the way, what are you doing with these wires and dung bombs?" she asked in curiosity as she remembered why she had approached the blonde boy in the first place.

The boy smiled deviously and said with a foxy grin "I'm setting up a prank for Iruka-Sensei. As soon as he enters through the door, the trap will trigger and BOOM!" He told her his plans animatedly ad moved his hands accordingly.

Sakura took a look at the trap with narrowed eyes, and then said haughtily. "It won't work."

"WHAT?!" Naruto bristled as his face turned red with anger. "Of course it will!"

"No it won't!" Sakura said in a sing song voice.

Naruto growled angrily and pointed his finger rudely at her. "Do you want to pick up a fight? You're on!"

Sakura sighed exasperatedly. "No, you idiot. Can't you see, the way you've arranged the wires had left lots of areas wide open. If Iruka-Sensei enters, the trap won't trigger because his ankle won't even tough your wire. Besides, the shining of metal wire would give away your trap. Being a Chunin Level Ninja he is, he is bound to have quick reflexes, and hence would step back or dodge the wire." She explained to him dutifully like a nerdy bookworm she was.

Naruto blinked at her in confusion, taking her words in. As soon as her words registered to him, he slumped and muttered in a sad voice "So it was all for a nothing? Damn."

Sakura sweat dropped at how he easily gets depressed, it actually reminded her Inner. Strange, isn't it?

"Ne, Ne, don't be so depressed. If you use camouflaged wire as well, then I'm sure Iruka-Sensei will definitely fall for your trap. You have to arrange the camouflaged wire some distance from the metal wire," She then narrowed her eyes at the trap arranged around the doorway, studying it with her keen green eyes "Say, about three inches from the metal wire?"
