Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ the ceremony of sealing ❯ sasuke ( Chapter 8 )

Sorry for taking so long to update but I had tests in school and please forgive me. This is a long chapter, a freaking energizer bunny it just goes on and on.

 

 

Naruto arrived at the academy just before the classes began. He had learned every jutsu Kyuubi knew, although some weren't mastered. He had mastered how ever the Kyuubi Katon No Jutsu. He wasn't sure what jutsu would be on the test, but he knew he would pass. He sat down and saw Haruno Sakura and Yamanaka Ino fighting over who would sit by Uchiha Sasuke. In the corner, Nara Shikamaru and Akimichi Chouji shared a bag of chips and stared out the window.

 

Umino Iruka walked with a clipboard into his hands. As he explained the procedure of the exams, Naruto found himself making the hand seals for the Kyuubi Katon No Jutsu, Bird, Dog, Horse, Tiger, Ox, and Dragon. Naruto remembered the exhilarated feeling he had when he mastered the jutsu he wondered if he would feel the same way when he passed the test.

 

“Uzumaki Naruto, if you have enough time to daydream then you should pass this exam with flying colors, the test is on the replication jutsu.”

 

Naruto followed Iruka into the exam room, with his hands calmly in his pockets. Focusing his chakra, Naruto took a deep breath and created twenty replications. Umino Iruka was speechless, not even the top student Uchiha Sasuke managed twenty, and in fact Sasuke only managed seven. Maybe the Uzumaki heir would amount to something in the future. A dazed Iruka presented Naruto with the leaf village headband and wondered how the other students would take the news that Naruto had surpassed even the Uchiha prodigy.

 

“Congratulations this year everyone passes. Usually it is tradition to tell everyone who had the top five highest scores in the class. In fifth is Yamanaka Ino, creating four clones, Aburame Shino with five clones, Nara Shikamaru, make six, Uchiha Sasuke made seven. Uzumaki Naruto made twenty making him the top student. You will be split into teams of three. Team 7 Uzumaki Naruto Haruno Sakura Uchiha Sasuke; team 8 Nara Shikamaru, Yamanaka Ino, and Chouji Akimichi. Team 10 Aburame Shino, Inuzuka Kiba, and Hyuuga Hinata. Meet back here at seven in the morning.

 

Naruto scowled, why out of all the teams did he have to be on the one with Haruno Sakura. She would just slow him down and obsess over Sasuke. He didn't mind the blue and white clad boy but there was something about Sakura that bugged him.

 

Naruto heard Sasuke call his name as the left the academy. Turning around he was the Uchiha hurrying in front of a crowd of girls heading straight for him. Naruto stopped and waited for Sasuke. Somehow he felt sorry for him because all the girls were always following him everywhere he went, just because he was the last member of the Uchiha clan.

 

Sasuke caught up fairly quickly and dove into the nearest bush pulling Naruto with him. A clone hopped out of the bush and sprinted away in the other direction, the girls hot on his heels.

 

“Sasuke what is the matter, why are you hiding from the girls, usually you just walk into the boys bathroom.”

 

“I know but today I really needed to talk to someone. Look we are on the same team and that means we will be sparing and I thought that maybe we could practice together. But I have one condition, you will help me get rid of the girls agreed?”

 

“Yeah that seems reasonably but don't think of me as the Hokage's son I am Uzumaki Naruto got it”

 

Sasuke nodded his agreement and the two sets off for the training ground. At the training ground Naruto set up the rules, any jutsu, weapon or style, just no going beyond the trees at the south end of the field.

 

Naruto stepped back until there was five feet between him and Sasuke. Putting his hands together, Sasuke made the seals for the Katon No Jutsu. `Huh so you want to play with fire, well two can play at that game' Naruto thought.

 

Naruto had been planning to use the Water Dragon Jutsu, but there wasn't any water, so he settled on wind style. Naruto called up a small cyclone that picked up the soft dirt in the clearing. It blew into Sasuke's face and put out the fireball jutsu.

 

Hopping back Sasuke cursed and thought up a new strategy. Since Naruto would stand out better because of the bright orange clothes he wore, Sasuke decided that it would be to his advantage to stay in the clearing and wait for Naruto to come to him. Naruto knew that Sasuke would use his bright clothes to track his movements.

 

Instead of falling for Sasuke's plan, Naruto decided he would use Earth Style, and dig a hole underneath Sasuke. Creating clones, Naruto estimated where Sasuke would be and told his clones to hid together and send just a single clone out at a time to make sure Sasuke was on his guard. Telling the clones not to harm Sasuke, Naruto began his attack.

 

While Naruto was beginning to dig the hole Sasuke was kept entertained by the clones. All he saw was flickers of orange in the dark green foliage. Patience was not exactly Sasuke's forte and he quickly became annoyed by the blonde's antics. Sasuke froze when he felt a cold hand on his ankly. Looking down he saw naruto, a hand on his ankle ready to pull him into the hole by his foot. Still completely spooked by naruto's appearance, sasuke didn't notice naruto had flipped him until he saw the ground rushing up to meet him.

 

Naruto stood over sasuke, hand outstretched. “hey are you all right I know sometimes I forget my own strength.”

Sasuke stared at the younger boy, despite his appearance, naruto was almost twice as strong as himself.

 

“uh yeah, hey this might offend you but, why do you wear that hideous orange jumpsuit?”

 

“what this, oh that was the onlyt color my stepmom would buy, personally I prefer dark blue, but that's my stepmom for you.”

 

Gripping naruto's hand sasuke stood up. “if you don't live with your stepmom anymore then why don't you buy different clothes?”

 

Naruto sighed, where to begin.

“well lets just say that Momeji has a lot of power in the village and this is the only color of clothes that they will sell me.”

 

“oh, well thanks for the fight I really enjoyed it.”
