Forest of Death? Ch. 17

Song- Miss Missing You by Fallout Boy
"Sometimes before it gets better, the darkness gets bigger. The person you'd take a bullet for it behind the trigger. Oh, we're fading fast. I miss missing you now and then."

I walked through Konoha, tugging Kakashi along with me. The written exam was yesterday and our team passed. I was super nervous about how they would do in the Forest of Death, but Kakashi insisted that our kids would be okay. I decided to take his word for it, and, to take my mind off of it, Kakashi ask if I wanted to train with him today. So we left Raiden at Kakashi's house, under the watch of Guruko and Buro. Buro being the biggest Ninken and Guruko being on of the smallest. Pakkun insisted he deserved a day off.

Once I made it to our team training area, I drop Kakashi's hand and tighten my ponytail. Instead of wearing my shinobi gear, I wore leggings and a sleeveless shirt, showing my Anbu tattoos. I left my katana at home, deciding to work on my Taijutsu today. My headband rested on my hairline, high on my forehead. I bounce on my heels, facing Kakashi.
"Do you want to warm up or anything?" I ask, stretching my arms.
"Hm..." Kakashi shakes his head, shrugging off his vest. "No, we should be good."
"Do you want to try anything specific?" I ask, watching him gt ready.
"I wanted to practice on what to do when you're blind, if that's okay with you." He says, running his hand through his hair. I blink, a little shocked.
"Oh! Um, okay!" I at, recovering slightly. "It shouldn't be that difficult, it just requires a lot of practice. We should get it down quickly. My last partner possessed Sharingan, so it was easy for him to predict my opponents moves." I say, words slipping out of my mouth. Come to think of it Itachi was my last actual partner. All of my other ones were for short amount of times and were never as good as him.
"Good thing I have it as well." Kakashi says, smiling at me.
"Okay, let's get started. I'm going to make a couple of clones and then close my eyes. It's your job to tell me where the clones are and what they're doing." I say, doing a couple of hand signs. "If any of them charge at me, tell me where and when to dodge."
Kakashi nods, watching me close my eyes as 5 shadow clones appear. They spread out, waiting for my command.

"Okay." I say, getting into a fighting position. "Begin!"

"Two are on your left, 24 degrees. They are running about 5 yards a minute." Kakashi says, leading me to them. I lunge towards them, fists making contact with one.
"There other doppelganger is behind you." Kakashi says, voice calm. I quickly turn around, kicking. My foot doesn't make contact. "Opps, sorry! They're actually 12 yards behind you! They jumped back to dodge your punch!"
"It's okay!" I say, finding the clone. I grab a hold of it, with my eyes still closed. I throw it over my shoulder, throwing it into the distance.
"Ouff!" Kakashi groans, hitting the ground. I flinch, turning around to face him.
"What happened?" I ask, about to open my eyes.
"Don't open your eyes, Himiko! That's cheating!" Kakashi yells and I force my eyes back shut. "You just threw your clone at me, that's all!"
I laugh, getting back in position. "Give me another one!"
"To your right, 16 degrees. There is a group of three." Kakashi says, "The closest one is 26 yards away."
I nod, jumping to my doppelganger. My fists don't hit at first, by I quickly swing around and land a solid one.
"Behind you, in the air."
I quickly turn around, round house kicking the one that jumped at me.
"Clockwise, 30 degrees. 5 yards."
I listen, punching the last clone and feeling it disappear. I open my eyes, grinning.
"That was pretty good, Hatake! Consider yourself hired!" I say, giving him a thumbs up. "What else do you want to do?"
"Hmm... How about we sparr for a bit?" Kakashi says, rolling his shoulders. "It's been a couple of days, hasn't it?"
"Huh, you're right. It has been a while!" I say, cracking my knuckles. "You must be pretty desperate for a beat down.~"
"I don't think things will end that way, Himiko." Kakashi says, smiling at me.
"Why is that?"
"Because, I want to fight you while you're blind." Kakashi says, smiling. "Now that we trained so I know what to do, I want to see if you can handle yourself if you were by yourself."
"Of course I can!" I say, narrowing my eyes. "I've done it many times before. Don't base your knowledge of my skills on what happened in the Land of the Waves, Kakashi. During the time after my visions, I'm left the most vulnerable."
"That's why we have to train, Himiko. I need to make sure you stay safe." Kakashi says, completely serious. I blink, looking away from his heated gaze.
"O-kay, but don't go easy on me." I say, closing my eyes. "In order for this to benefit us, we both have to go all out. I won't be pulling my punches, Hatake. I wouldn't let one of them land, if I were you."
"I will avoid them to the best of my ability." Kakashi says, "You can start whenever you want."
