"Those who break the rules are scum, but those who abandon their friends are worse than scum."

.The sun seeped through my window that I left open last night. I turned the other way to block out the light. But it was too late. I had already woken up. I groggily opened my eyes and sat up. Blinking a couple of times, I looked at my surroundings.
I looked at the clock. 9am. Today was the exercise. I knew Kakashi was going to be late, and might as well take my time. I went into the bathroom to take a shower. I lathered Japanese Blossom shampoo into my hair and then rinsed it out. I scrubbed my body until it was squeaky clean. I turned the water off, wrapped a towel around, and put on my ninja clothes. I also put on my two necklaces and bracelet. I tied my headband around my waist.
I went downstairs into the kitchen to make some breakfast. Pshh puke my ass. I ate some eggs and drank a glass of orange juice. I put some rice balls into a bag for lunch later. I got my weapons and my two books and put them into the pouch and headed towards the training ground. I arrived about 10 mins later.
"HEY YOUR LATE!" Sakura and Naruto yelled at me. I laughed nervously.
"Sorry about that... a black cat crossed my path and I had to take the long way." I told them.
"YEA RIGHT!" They yelled. I rolled my eyes and sat on the ground besides Naruto. A couple minutes later. POOF!
"HEY YOUR LATE!" the idiots yelled. "A black cat crossed..."
"Don't even bother! She already used that excuse!" Sakura pointed to me. Kakashi looked at me and I blinked at him innocently. He chuckled and brought out a clock.
"Your assignment is simple." He pulled out three bells. "You have to take these bells from me before the alarm rings. If you can't get it, you will go without lunch and be tied to those posts and will watch me eat my lunch." I grinned. Phew! Thank god I had a heavy breakfast.
"Ready...go!" The three of us jumped off into the woods to hide, while Naruto stayed behind. I sighed.
"You and me right now fair and square!" I shook my head. I heard a noise behind me.
"What the HE-" A hand slapped my mouth closed. I looked up and saw Sasuke glaring at me to be quiet. I narrowed my eyes at him. I turned back around to see Kakashi pull out Icha Icha. I silently chuckle.
"...One thousand years of death" I put my hand over my mouth to keep from laughing out loud.
"Hey.. Sasuke. We need to work together to get the bells." He scoffed.
"Don't you understand.. It's about teamwork! Trust me!" I exclaimed quietly. Sasuke crept up behind me and threw a series of kunais and shurikens.
"Sasuke, you idiot!" I whisper yelled and jumped out of that tree to find another hiding spot. Great, that idiot exposed us. He'll get buried anyways. I silently went up to Naruto and cut off his rope.
"Shh. Naruto we need to work together!" I explained. "Sorry sister, but I have to do this by myself to become Hokage!"
"But Naruto! Even Hokage's need help!" I tried. I walked off to find Kakashi.
"Ahh there you are Y/N. I was wondering when I'll get to fight you." He said, still reading his Icha Icha.
"Well I guess it's your lucky day huh Sensei? We're going to fight again after 5 years!" I exclaimed. He chuckled and put his book away.
"Looks like I'll be wanting to put that book away if I'm going to fight you." I grinned. I got into a fighting position.
I slipped my hand into my weapon couch and pulled out some kunai, I aimed them at him. He effortlessly dodged. I ran up to him and started to punch. A Taijutsu battle began between us. I kept throwing attacks and he kept dodging. I jumped back a few feet and did a couple of hand signs.
"Fire style: Phoenix flower jutsu" I blew out and hid some weapons in the fire. As the fire was heading towards Kakashi, I silently made two earth clones and hid them away underground. As my clones were hiding, I needed something big. Something powerful that would distract Kakashi greatly. Aha! That's it!
I stepped a bit back a couple of feet in front of the river. Kakashi looked at me with narrowed eyes. I smirked and did a series of hand signs.
"Water Style: Great Whirlpool Enfolding Technique!" I yelled out. The river behind me started shaking and rose above.
It swirled around in high rotation and density. Kakashi stared wide-eyed at the massive amount of water. I raised my hands and pointed towards Kakashi. The great whirlpool started spinning and headed towards him at a fast speed. It would be hard to dodge. As the water was coming, one of my earth clones peeked out from under him, cut off a bell and jumped back into the earth. My second clone placed a simple Genjutsu to hide the fact the bell was missing.
"Earth Style: Mud Brick Wall" He yelled out. A huge mud wall rose from the bottom blocking him from the whirlpool.
The water steam disappeared and I saw Kakashi panting. I was panting much more, using a lot of chakra. I heard a scream and ran off into the woods. I saw Sakura on the ground unconscious and Sasuke trapped with a headhunter jutsu. I glanced at him and started laughing.
"Hahaha, now that's just funny." He growled at me.
"Could you get me out of here?" I raised an eyebrow.
"Uh huh sure. What do you say??" I taunted.
He sighed. "Could you help me.. please?" I stood up.
"Well I was thinking 'Y/N you're totally awesome' but please is fine" I winked at him. I stepped a couple of feet back. Pulling back my arm, I punched the ground. The earth around him crumbled into pieces. He looked at me shocked.
"What?... You knew I was holding back.. besides this is nothing!" I turned around and knelt towards Sakura. "Oi, pinkie.. Sakura... Sakura wake up!.*sigh* SAKURA SASKUKE SAYS HE LOVES YOU!" I yelled out. She jolted up.
"Huh what?" I was silently laughing. I looked back at Sasuke. He was twitching his eyebrow at me in annoyance. I grinned and started walking away. RINGGGGGGG! The bell rang. I walked by the stumps.
"Tsk tsk Naru-chan! Couldn't you have waited!" I asked him.
"I will not be sending you back to the academy." I knew what was coming.
"All 4 of you should quit being ninjas!" He yelled. Sasuke got up and attached Kakashi. He grabbed him and pushed him to the ground.
"Ahh! Don't step on Sasuke-kun!" Sakura screamed. I rolled my eyes at the scene.
"Do you underestimate ninjas? Why are you all divided into groups!" He asked. I grunted.
"Huh! What does that mean?" These punks were so slow.
"OH MY MAVIS IT'S TEAMWORK!" I yelled out. They stared at me wide eyed.
"That's right. If all four of you came at me together, then you might have had a chance to get the bells." Kakashi nodded.
"There were only three bells though!" Sakura stated confused.
"He did that on purpose, Pinkie. He wanted to see if we could get over ourselves fighting and work together." I stated.
"Sakura, instead of helping Naruto who was right in front of you, you went off to find Sasuke" She looked down guiltily.
"Naruto! Even after Y/N asked you to work together, you ignored her and went on running on your own.... Y/N! You tried convincing Naruto and Sasuke, but not Sakura. You should have tried more to convince them. And you Sasuke. Arrogance. You just assumed that everyone was so far beneath you that you didn't need their help, even after Y/N asked." I looked away.
