Chapter 3: Rematch

 

“Ugh! I'm late! This is what I get for staying up late to watch TV!” Kira yelled as she ran around her room getting ready to go to training. After a few minutes she ran down the stairs with her kunai pouch and shuriken holder in her hand, “Man, this sucks ass!” She ran out of the front door with half of her gear in her hands and started to run down the street. But it wasn't long before she stopped and realized she forgot to do a major thing, “Damn it! I forgot to lock the front door!” Kira smacked her hand against her forehead and looked at her watch, “I'm already 25 minutes late and by the time I get there I'll be 40 minutes late. I have no time to run back and lock the door! Ugh someone hates me! Please if I have any luck at all, PLEASE no one break into my house!” Kira continued to run along the road towards the bridge

At the bridge:

“Hmm. It's not unusual for Kakashi-sensei to be late but Kira is late today too.” Sakura stated

“Well out of the four days she's been training with us this will make the second time she's late.” Naruto stated

“Hmph. She's useless. She can't even get here on time.” Sasuke said

Poof Kakashi appeared behind the three genin, “One, two three,…where's Kira?” He asked

“She's not here yet.”

“Well I'm glad there's someone who runs later than me.”

“HEY!”

The four ninja turned their heads to see Kira hopping towards the bridge. She was hopping on the count of she was trying to put her kunai holder on her right leg.”

“Hahaha, she looks so stupid!” Naruto yelled

Finally after a few minutes Kira reached the bridge

“You're late.” Kakashi said

“Really? No way!” She answered sarcastically, “I'm sorry, I promise to try to be on time from now on.”

“Alright let's get started on your mission.” Kakashi said as he put his hands in his pockets and began to walk towards town

The four genin followed him.

“So why are you so late?” Sakura asked

“I blame the tv.”

“Haha. You stayed up that late.”

“Ya and on top of that I fell asleep on the couch! So I the worst nigh sleep ever!”

“That was smooth.”

The five ninja were now walking through town and Kira looked up ahead and saw an all too familiar building that read `Konoha Mental Hospital'. She stopped walking at stared ahead of her, and appeared to be in a trance.

“Kira you okay?” Sakura asked as she also stopped

Naruto, Sasuke, and Kakashi stopped walking at looked at Kira. Sasuke walked over to Kira, stretched his hand out in front of Kira's face and snapped his fingers.

“Uhh.” Kira said as she snapped out her trance

“Hmph, you are so useless.” Sasuke said as he put his hands in his pockets and turned his back to Kira, “By the way, after training today, I want a rematch.”

“What?”

“Now that I know you're strength, beating you will be fairly easy.”

“Fine I'll yet again kick your ass.”

“We'll see about that.”

A while later the ninja began their training mission which was to pick fruit off of trees in a man's garden.

“I'm gonna pick more fruit than Sasuke!”

“Hmph.”

“Are they always like this?” Kira asked

“Every single day.” Sakura replied

“Listen up you!” The man yelled, “There are only certain fruit you can pick…”

After a quick explanation from the man each of the genin was given a basket to place their fruit in. When they were given the go Sasuke and Naruto wasted no time in jumping into the line of trees, while Kira and Sakura stayed on the ground.

“*yawn* Well let's get going.” Kira said

“Alright.”

Sakura and Kira jumped into the line of trees and began to hop from branch to branch eyeing the fruit around them.

“Well they'll be a while.” Kakashi said as he sat down under a tree and pulled out Icha Icha Paradise

Sakura jumped onto a branch that was below a lot of the ripe fruit that they needed, “Hey Kira over here!

“Huh, you found some?”

“Ya come see.”

Kira went over to Sakura and looked up at the decent sized collection of fruit.

“Hey great jo-”

“Kira!”

“Kira lost her footing on the tree branch and started to fall off. A few seconds later she landed with a thud on the ground; all of her fruit spilling out of her basket and onto the ground.

“OOWWW!”

“You okay?” Sakura yelled down to her

“Damn it! Now I have to pick up all this fruit! Can this day get any worse?”

“Hmph, you're useless.”

Kira looked over and Sasuke standing on a branch to the right of her.

“Apparently it can.”

“Hey Sasuke!” Sakura jumped down and began to help Kira pick up her fruit, “You know for a ninja you're kinda clumsy.”

“Tell me about it.”

After picking up the rest of the fruit Kira and Sakura jumped back up into the trees and continued their fruit picking.

A few hours later:

“You kids did a good job. Eight baskets of fruit ready to sell at the market tomorrow. Thank you very much.”

“Don't mention it old timer. Just doing our ninja duty.” Naruto said

“Here's a little reward for each of you.” The man passed a fruit to Sasuke, Sakura and Kira

“Hey where's mine?” Naruto asked

“I don't give my fruit away to brats.”

“HEY OLD MAN!”

“Naruto stop being so annoying!” Sakura put him in a neck hold

“You are such a loser.”

“Haha.”

“Well you four that's enough for today. I'll see you tomorrow; on time right Kira?”

“You shouldn't be taking Mr. I get lost on the road of life.”

“Very well.” And with that Kakashi disappeared in a puff of smoke

“Well Sasuke training's over.” Kira said

“You ready?”

“As ever. But can we spar somewhere else? I don't think a fruit orchard is the best place.”

“Alright.”

The four of them walked a little ways before Sasuke and Kira found a decent clearing. They walk to their spots parallel from each other and got in their fighting stances.

“Kira is gonna kick Sasuke's ass!” Naruto said

Maybe, she did beat him last time. But that was only cause she lied but now that Sasuke knows her strength he has a good chance. Sakura thought

“You ready?”

“Come on!”

Kira made the first move. She ran straight towards Sasuke pulling out two of her regular kunais.

“Sharingan!”

Instead of throwing the kunais Kira charged at Sasuke and used them like they were swords; aiming to slash Sasuke in a vital spot and call the match. But with or without his sharingan this attack was easy to dodge. Sasuke pulled out a kunai and a shuriken. With the shuriken he knocked one of the kunais out of Kira's hand.

“Uh?”

Then used the kunai to block the other one. They were now face to face, kunai to kunai.

“Hmph.” Sasuke said as he kneed Kira in the stomach-only it wasn't really her it was a log, “Replacement!” he yelled

He sensed Kira from behind him and when he turned around he met her by landing a punch to the side of her face. Kira staggered back a few steps.

“You know Sasuke if this wasn't false death style, I would use my kekkei genkai on you and end this fight with me as the victor.”

“I look forward to seeing it.”

“You wish.” Kira did a series of hand signs, “Wind style: hidden gust jutsu!”

The wind around Sasuke picked up.

“Take this!” Kira threw six shurikens into the gust. They were picked up by the wind and flew with great speed towards Sasuke, making them nearly invisible.

But with his sharingan he saw everything. He dodged each one. And out of nowhere he appeared behind Kira and laid a few punches and kicked her in the stomach sending her flying a few feet. Before she could recover he ran over to her-kunai in hand. He pinned her down by putting his weight on her stomach and laid the kunai across her neck.

“I win.” He got up and put his kunai away, “I knew you were no match for me. The only reason you won last time was because you lied and I underestimated you.” He deactivated his sharingan

“Fine I guess you win.” Kira walked over to Sasuke and without warning punched him in the face

“Hey Kira the fight is over!” Naruto yelled

“Don't punch Sasuke for no reason!” Sakura added

“That's for A: being and ass and B: because I didn't land one punch our whole match!” Kira folded her arms and turned her back to Sasuke. When her back was turned a smile spread across Kira's face and she brought one of her hands up to her mouth to hide the giggle that was about escape from her lips.

“See you guys' tomorrow right.” Kira began to walk

But she didn't get more a few steps before Sakura stopped her.

“Hey Kira!” Sakura jogged over to Kira and stopped her, “That wasn't very nice punching Sasuke like that.” She said with an apparent blush

“I know but I had to land one attack. Even if I did do it by cheating.” Kira looked at Sasuke, “Sasuke you have great skills. And I guess you can say I did win last time cause I lied but it's just as much as fault, for your loss. You should never underestimate your opponent no matter what they say, that's just common knowledge.”

“Cha! Sasuke kicked your ass! No one can beat him!” Inner Sakura said to Kira Sakura walked over to Sasuke, “Great job Sasuke! Are you okay?”

“I'm fine.”

“Hey Sasuke…” Sakura started to say something with a blush on her face

“No Sakura. I don't want to do anything with you.”

“Oh okay.”

Sasuke placed his hands in his pockets and began to walk away.

“See you tomorrow then!” She yelled after him

Naruto walked over to Sakura, “Hey Sakura I'll do something with you today! We could go out for ramen or…”

“Ya right! In your dreams Naruto.”

“See you guys tomorrow then.” Kira said as she waved goodbye

“Wait for me! Bye Naruto!” Sakura yelled to him as she turned around and caught up with Kira

“Mind if I walk with you?”

“Not at all.”

The two kunoichi walked side by side down the road that would bring them to their homes.

“So did your team do any other missions besides these stupid fruit picking, floor washing ones?”

“Ya actually we did. We did this really hard mission to the land of waves.”

“What did you have to do?”

After Sakura was finished telling the story Kira stopped walking at looked at Sakura with big eyes.

“Shut up! That's so awesome!”

“I guess you can say it was. But at the time it was far from awesome.”

“True. But not many genin can say they went on a dangerous mission like that! The only remotely exciting mission I did was escorting this woman to her home village. The most exciting part of that mission was when I got to attack this dude when he tried to rob me.”

“Haha.”

“You think that's funny?”

“Ya.”

“And the guy had no reason to rob me, it's not like I walk around with my life savings. Speaking of robbery I wonder how my house held up.”

“Your house?”

“Ya I forgot to lock the door this morning cause I was running so late. And by the time I remembered I had run too far to turn back and lock it.”

“Good job.”

“Haha thanks.”

“Well this is where I say goodbye.” Sakura said as she stopped in front of a turn that went off the main road they were on.

“Okay see you tomorrow.”

“Bye.”

Kira continued to walk until she reached her front door.

Alright, PLEASE let there be nothing missing!

She pulled out a kunai-just in case and opened the front door. Everything was just how she left it.

“Ugh thank goodness!” She said as she walked in and flopped down on her couch

Meow

“Hey Kit.” She bent down, picked up her cat and placed her on her lap

“You'll never guess what happened today…”

 

Another one down!! BTW how is Kakashi? I had my friend read my first couple chapters and she was like `Kakashi is way out of character' so I did my best to put him more in character. Also how are my fighting scenes? Do they make any sense lol?
