Kakashi was proud of his students (ok, most of them) and gathered them to their usual meeting point to tell them so.
" - Naru, Sasuke, congrats on making it to the tournament. Sakura, you did your best, keep working, ok ? Now, you two have a whole month before the matches so we'll make sure you can live up to the challenge. Sasuke, you're coming with me, I have something planned for you. For you Naru, I found someone who can help a great deal with seals. If you have any questions though, keep Pakkun with you so he can make the link between us. Is that ok with you two ?
- Hn.
- Yes, Sensei.
- Hum, Sensei ? What about me ?
- Well, just keep training like you usually do Sakura. Keep your routine and we'll start training together again once the exams are over.
- O-ok..."
The genin were dismissed and each went their separate way.
Naru ran to the bathhouse to meet with her temporary teacher. She just wondered why he would be there of all places. And why Kurama was growling in the back of her mind.
Sasuke went home to pack his things. He ran through the streets, impatient at the idea of getting stronger. With no "teammates" in his way, he would finally be able to make some progress.
Sakura wandered in the streets, unsure of what to do. She had, after all, never tried to train outside of the team meetings ! She had better things to do... Maybe she could hang out with friends ?
* Time skip *
It was a joke. One big fat joke. It had to be. Her teacher could not be the pervert peeping through the holes in the bathhouse's fence...
Naru was literally boiling inside. That was not only an invasion of privacy, but also sexual harassment ! If this man thought he could get away with this, he had another thing coming !
She stomped over to him and drop-kicked him on the head, leaving a small crater where he had collided with the ground.
" - What the hell was that for ?! Who just... A brat ? Hum... You're going to grow into a nice lady someday, would you like to-
- Old man. Stop this. I am the one who kicked you and I will do much worse next time you even suggest anything remotely close to what is legally called sexual harassment. Which includes any lewd comments concerning me or peeping on the unsuspecting women behind that fence. Am I clear enough ?
- Wha- Someone was WATCHING US ??!!
- KYAH, A PERVERT !!!
- LET'S LEAVE !!!
- What ? No !!! Why did you do this ?...
Jiraiya was angered by the situation but quickly noticed the red chakra leaking from the girl and shut his mouth.
- What was that ?
- N-nothing !
- Great. Now, I'm Uzumaki Naru, nice to meet you. Are you the one Kakashi-sensei appointed as my seal teacher ?
