Kakashi's Disappearing Acts (Kakashi Hatake)

Chapter 23-Why This Sudden Drive?

omg im so happy to be updating again<3

And with that, your pen flew to the paper, flipping open the packet. Your eyes skimmed the first question. You sighed, with a sudden feeling of a letdown. You had little knowledge of what it was asking. Well, of course.

What is the thirty-second rule of the ninja handbook?

You rolled your eyes, thinking back to when you used to read the ninja handbook from the front to the back. You placed your finger to your lip and you closed your eyes. It came back to you.

Never throw shuriken's at people as a joke.

You smiled, contently, and looked over to the second question. Before you could start, you looked ahead of you, you saw Sasuke, smiling with his eyes closed. You could tell exactly what he was thinking. He didn't know a thing. Of course he didn't, he hated to read the handbook. Your efforts to teach him always were in vain. You wanted to laugh at the misfortune but realized...if he didn't pass, then you were also in trouble. So was Naruto, and Sakura. You had to find a way to...cheat. Which sounded absurd, yes, but that was the only way. You looked at Sakura, who had no issue with the questions. Good. As for Naruto, he stared blankly at the paper. You sighed, which caused an annoyed reaction from Temari next to you. You mouthed sorry and gave a reassuring smile. She rolled her eyes in response. You squinted and turned back to Sasuke. Your hands flew to your pen, which you began to dissasemble. You had come up with a small, weak plan, but it was better than nothing. You tore off a piece of paper from your sheet on the corners, which was blank, and jotted down the answers on it. You rolled it back into a small crumb of paper and stuffed it inside your pen, which wrapped around the stick of lead perfectly. Immediately after, you closed the pen and examined it. It looked completely normal. You then waited a bit, used another pen to jot down answer 2, and then rolled the pen bellow Sasuke's chair. Sasuke, being himself, noticed it a few seconds later, bent down, and picked it up. His eyes met yours and he nodded. You smiled subtly and turned pack to your own test, looking up once in a while, to see Sasuke successfuly writing down the answers.

Then your eyes dashed to Naruto. You thought the same trick wouldn't work twice. Of course not. But there was no other way...no, no, there was. There had to be. But you racked your brain and the proctor stated there was just a few minutes left, and you realized you only had time for yourself. You felt disappointed with yourself. There would be no way you could pass all together. Three out of four made it. You jotted down the answers up to questiion nine, then looked up at the proctor.

"Now we will be starting the final, tenth question. You are able to leave now or stay. If you leave, you will always be able to come back and return next year. If you stay, and fail, you will not be able to return. Ever."

You slightly gasped and turned your face towards Sasuke, who didn't look back at you, the same luck with Sakura and Naruto. You ended up exasperated, looking around at others leaving the room, bringing their group with them. In the end only a few groups stayed. You suddenly turned towards Naruto, whose hand was raising up.

Naruto??! What the hell is he thinking? You wanted this moment, you couldn't quit, even though there was a risk, you wanted to at least try. But Naruto was going to ruin it all. You stood up and then so did Naruto.

He smiled and suddenly yelled out,

"No way am I quitting! None of us are! You best believe it!"

Naruto then sat back down and the room was quiet.

Nobody else left after that.
