A different route

Chunin Exams

It had been three months since Obito and Rin got married and they were still in their honeymoon. Honestly Naruko thought that they just escaped the village and aren't thinking about returning back. The time with Kakashi had been...well funny. Sakura had peeked once Kakashi's Icha Icha Tactics book and had been a blushing mess for a week. Naruko had laughed her head off. Anko had came sometimes during their spars and had spar with Kakashi in another way. She had beat Sakura so bad when she discovered she was a fangirl that Sakura hadn't been able to look at Sasuke for a whole week, which was damn impressive. Their missions had been boring, Hiruzen had given them C-rank missions and some B-rank but the toughest mission they had had was one which they were against five chunins. Sasuke had matured his sharingan and had been training by Itachi in daily basis if Itachi wasn't in a mission. Fugaku had focused his attention to Naruko and training with her. They had found some pretty good abilities of mangekyou but the one that had impressed Fugaku was Minato's being able to go back in time in the interval of five seconds which in the ninja world was enough to save or take a life and in Minato's case that had been even more useful as Minato was the fastest ninja to live. Another ability which was intriguing was the ability to negate the other's dojutsu for a five minutes. It was great if the enemy had some kind of strong dojutsu, example the byakugan. Naruko hadn't found an ability yet, but maybe she didn't have one, like Itachi hadn't. She had been able to perfect her Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu more and was less straining for her to perform them. She hadn't tried to learn Susano'o yet as she stated she wanted for her eyes to get used to the strain they're putted by using Amaterasu or Tsukuyomi. She had learned more fire techniques and two lightning ones by Kakashi. She had trained with Shisui too. They had worked on her speed more as she had to be faster if she wanted to master the shunshin trick like Shisui or learn the Hiraishin. She had worked on her taijutsu and genjutsu as well.

Naruko laid in the grass under a tree in a forest panting as she finished sparing with Shisui. Shisui sat beside her laying his back on the tree and looked the sun. It reminded him Naruko.

"Shisui..."-said Naruko and Shisui drifted his eyes from the sun to Naruko. She had gotten up and had crossed her legs and watched Shisui intensively. It made him gulp, her blue eyes, more bluer than the sky and the ocean. It always drowned him in those pools of blue which were full of emotions. Different from other Uchihas who usually didn't showed their emotions, she showed them full force. That was different when she fought, her eyes, her pools of blue becomes dull and icy cold devoid of any emotions, it made him shiver only thinking about them. That's when his thoughts stopped...he felt something in his lips, something soft. He blinked and saw Naruko kissing him, this time wasn't an accident, his brain froze and he stood there frozen. Naruko leaned back blushing and then ran away.

She scolded herself for doing that but she had heard Tenten when she had asked her how to find out if she had a crush on Shisui or something more. She still felt his lips on hers, she touched her lips to relive the sensation but it wasn't the same. When she had kissed him the first time she had been happy and giddy like a schoolgirl, but now...it was like butterflies were flying in her stomach and her heart pounded like it wanted to get out of her chest and throw itself to Shisui's hands. Her breath had stopped and her body had frozen but in the same time had wanted to feel more. She blamed her hormones, after all she was thirteen and had entered puberty.

Shisui snapped out of it and got up. He ran after Naruko...he wanted to do something, but what. He arrived at the district and met Izumi. He grabbed her arm and asked her for help.

"What happened now"-asked Izumi and raised an eyebrow

"Umm what do you mean"-asked Shisui rubbing the back of his head

"You have asked me for help two times and that had been about Naruko, now what happened"-asked Izumi as she rolled her eyes.

"Well you see...umm she kissed me and then ran off"-explained Shisui and Izumi hummed
