《Providence [Naruto Fan Fiction]》Chapter 11

"Your Taijutsu is getting heavier and heavier day by day, Kashina-chan!" Tenzo complimented and Team Ro approved it.
We're in the middle of our water break and my third day of hell training. They have no problem on my Ninjutsu since I can produce the exact ratio of chakra each technique and can prolong the fight with them. My lacking was endurance in Taijutsu although my Taijutsu is mixed Hyuuga and Uchiha and made them my own style by combining and reversing those two, it wasn't enough at first since it wasn't heavy enough to take them down like what Guy-sensei's doing.
Well, that's expected. He's the master of Taijutsu here.
"Thank you, Tenzo-niisan, Yugao-niichan, Jay-niisan, Kai-niisan and Lord Hokage." And then we rest in silence. After satisfying ourselves with water, we continued exchanging blows which is much heavier than my first and second day. I also have weights on my legs – the reason why I sometimes gets a sloppy punch. My body's still adjusting but my balance in the mid-air is still enough for me to counter their synchronous attacks although it's painful. I remember yesterday, my second day, I cried harder because of the physical pain I received from them. Unfortunately, Tenzo and Kai did a huge number on me. Kakashi got mad at them for not restraining their power, hehehe.
"You good there, kid?" I heard Tenzo's voice beside me. He sat down beside me and laid his head on the tree trunk. Finally, my third day of hell ended. Just 3 days more before my last day because it'll be a Ninjutsu battle against them plus Lord Third. That's pretty abusive, ya know?! "Yes, Tenzo-niisan. It's this so troublesome but I can't do anything about it. What a drag." I complained he just laughed at my remarks and then patted my head. I'm so thankful to him because he's also teaching me some Earth and Water technique which is sometimes S-class and Wood Release. Yugao is helping me with my Katana skills while Jay and Kai are helping me to improve my mid-air combat skills. They found it amazing because in a split-seconds while I'm floating, I still have my upper hand.
I just lack in experience but my knowledge is awesome. Yeah, that's what they said. I didn't lift my chair, bleh!
After treating my scratches, I went straight home and didn't bother to eat dinner since I already shoot the disgusting food pills inside my mouth. It's pretty late, when I looked at the wall clock, it's already 10:00 PM and I need to catch a better sleep and rest for tomorrows another hell training.

"Kashina, you were able now to synchronized your attack with me which is awesome. You were also able to adopt to my fighting skills. I feel like I'm fighting with Jiraiya." He laughed. My final day just ended. My ninjutsu battle with the Team Ro and Lord Third causes the training ground 1 to its extent. Well, it's totally ruined because we did a lot of powerful techniques to counter each other. Upon mentioning Jiraiya, I remember him training Naruto before the final round. Well, I decided to meet him up. After all, I'm planning to save him in the future. "As a reward, I'll be giving you a scroll about Lord First Wood Technique – you and Tenzo can train together to enhanced your skills." With that, I went towards him to give him a warm hug. A tear escaped my eyes remembering him dying. I may be letting him die but it's for the best and I'll fight with him. I won't be letting him fight alone. I'm his new generation student, I don't want him to fight alone.

I also gave the team Ro a warm hug as a thank you for enhancing my skills. Jay and Kai gave me a brand-new kunai and shuriken set. Yugao gave me a pair of combat gloves to avoid earning callous on my palm and Tenzo gave me a box of snacks with Dango! I couldn't help but to cry. They're amazing and I treat them as my brothers and sister just like Kakashi. I cannot do anything about Hayate's death but I hope I can stay with Yugao when that happens. After all, it's her biggest heartbreak. The reason why she quit being ANBU and pursued being a medical ninja.
When the lights from the sky faded, I immediately went home to take a cold shower. I wore a jacket before going outside to meet Gaara. I smiled when I found him again, sitting on the roof while watching the beauty of the moon.
"Hi. It's been a while. How are you?" I caught his attention but I think he's expecting me. His gaze met mine so I flashed my sweet smile before sitting down beside him. "My training's done, Chunnin exams will start tomorrow." Yeah, that said, Orochimaru is also there – participating while in disguise. What a troublesome ninja. Man, I do really wish I have Sharingan, the moon quite bigger than the usual tonight and it's glowing! It's so lovely! I hope I bring my DSLR here – wew, too late for regrets.
"I'm fine." Is what all he said. At least, he responded! I understand, he's now used on talking to stranger. My heart skipped a bit when I noticed the necklace I gave him the other day. Dang! He didn't rip it off. He looks so peaceful while looking upwards. The shine of the moonlight is reflecting to the silver moon pendant I gave him. Maa, I know, Naruto will change his perspective in life. For now, I'll stay with him.
"Do you think I can talk with Shukaku?" I asked out of nowhere. He looked at me as if he's analyzing me at the same time confused why I wanted to meet his beast. "I want to talk with him about you." I added. I gasped when I felt his hands touch my left palm. He guided my palm to his forehead and then he closed his eyes – so I did that too. And when I opened it again, I'm already inside their mind. I faced Shukaku's jail which is his incomplete seal by the Fourth Kazekage.
"What an impudent brat you doing here?!" Shukaku's irritated voice roared inside the room so I had to cover my eardrums. This is definitely worse than Naruto's angry shits about Sasuke and Kakashi. "I'm here to warn you, Shukaku." I carefully said, not intending to mean anything. Shukaku has a lot pride – same with Kurama. They're actually a tandem-enemy thing. "Heh, warn me? You damn low human-." I cut him off.
"That said, Hagoromo is also aware of this." And that made Shukaku stop with wide eyes. He's not expecting me, a low human to know about his father. "H-how d-do y-you k-know about him?!" He hissed. "Somewhere in the future, an organization will target all of the tailed beast. I'm warning you since you guys are in danger. I'm afraid Isobu was already captured since he disappeared long ago. The others were still safe with their jinchuriki but for now, stay safe. When the time comes you'll be able to meet your father again along with your brothers until then, I'll be helping you and the others but please, don't be so harsh with Gaara. Just like you, he also didn't want to cage you inside him." I explained then the silence roared between us. "How can I trust you?" He finally breaks the silence.

"Somewhere in the future, we'll meet again, a man with blue eyes will save all of the tailed beast, just like what Hagoromo told you – long time ago." I smiled at him making him stopped. For now, I hope Shukaku's bloodlust won't influence Gaara for awhile until Lee's and Sasuke's. That said, I felt bad for Lee but well, Lady Tsunade will do something about that. "I'll be leaving now, Shukaku. Don't cause such ruckus. After all, I know everything that will be happen. Until then, please keep Gaara safe. I'm counting on you!" and then I waved my goodbye before disappearing and went back to reality.
"Thank you for letting me talk with him." I'm aware that he didn't heard our conversation because of my silencing seal and he's curious about it but he slipped it away. He's learning to trust me and I won't let him down!
We stayed there until midnight. Gaara was summoned so we had to wave our goodbye's and let the destiny decide to make us meet tomorrow. Yea, what a poetic. That said, I went home to grab some rest since I'm in need to find Kakashi tomorrow because I'll be taking the test alone. 3-man squad is required but 1 man participating is also allowed. That's troublesome but hey, that's quite good. I can cause havoc without minding others. I know Naruto and the team will do better, leave the hickey alone, they will grow up because of that survival exam. I'll be watching them from a far.
"Kakashi-niisan, wake the hell up or I'll remove your mask on your face!" I shouted. I've been waiting for almost 3 hours outside his bedroom. I went here in his apartment 6:00 AM and now it's already late, he's still snoring and damn, he's gonna come late. I knew it!
There he opened his eyes, shocked on what the hell I'm doing inside his house and why am I barging inside his bedroom. "Alright, alright, give me a moment. I'll take a shower first, wait in the living room. I'll make it quick." He said while yawning. "You better make it quick. Nii-san. Or else, I'll definitely burn all of your icha icha paradise book for making me wait here!!" I said furiously, I saw him gulped before nodding so I nod back and went outside his room. I laid myself on the couch after eating breakfast which is egg sandwich and black coffee.
After 30 minutes, Kakashi finally showed up. He's now wearing his Jonin attire, yeah, as usual, I'm worshipping his looks. "So, why are you here?" He asked while taking a bite on the sandwich I made for him with his mask on. "Nii-chan, did you just forget that it's Chunnin exam?! And you'll be giving me another set of paper since I'll be going to participate alone?!" I hissed! He literally forgot! Oh, My God! Just wow, this is The Hatake Kakashi! "Do you really want me to burn all your perverted books?!" I asked again, with a hint of anger on my voice. I'm fuming mad!
"Oh-oh, let's calm down, Kashina. I didn't forget. I mean, you don't need to fill up another form – yeah, according to the Lord Third. Besides, you can just tell your proctors that you're taking the test alone because they're aware of your existence. The Third mentioned you last Jonin meeting." Oh~ I see, he explained nervously. He must be scared of the thought of me burning those books into ashes. "Well, I'll be going now. You should come ASAP right after you go there. If you make us wait you'll be coming home greeted with those burned shits." I threaten before disappearing in front of his sight.
I teleported on Naruto's mark which made the three startles. "Gooddamn, Kashina-chan! Don't surprise us like that!" Naruto irked while Sakura and Sasuke just rolled their eyes on me after regaining their composure. "I'm so excited 'ttebayo! We're gonna pass this test!" Naruto added and the three of us smirked. Naruto's confident is growing up! I'm proud.
Oh, that said. Isn't the first round – a written test?! Shit, I forgot about that, Ibiki's the proctor. That damn impudent ass. Maa, I know that we'll manage along with the other Leaf Rookies. Naruto will do the deed of course, our adorable main character. The first round has the hidden meaning of information gathering by the use of cheating without getting caught. We can use any silent techniques like Byakugan of the Hyuuga, Sharingan of the Uchiha, Tenten's weaponry manipulation and so and so on. For me, I'll try to answer those 9 questions. After all, I did my best to study to stock knowledge about this world.
"Aren't you supposed to guard the gates... Kotetzu... Izumo...?" I asked after Sasuke encourage Sakura to speak up and tell everybody that this is the second floor and this assess put them on the genjutsu illusion. Sasuke's sharp mind is able to sense something wrong and Sakura supported him. Well, Naruto's an ass – just going with the flow. "H-ha... what are you talking about?!" Izumo asked frantically. He was about to kick Sasuke but Lee meddled.
'Oh, the destiny boys' team."
I immediately roamed my eyes around to find him. Neji Hyuuga. He's a bit hot but ass and Naruto will give a good beating. With that, he'll change drastically. I mentally rolled my eyes. For now, he's an ass going with the flow because he's stuck with his destiny. Yeah, he's definitely the destiny boy of Leaf Village. He's still mad with the Main branch of Hyuuga Family because of his Father's death but I know, deep inside him, he still cares. He still cares about Hinata more than anybody here. It's just he's fucked up on showing his emotion because of his pride, just like Sasuke. They're both fucked up.
"It's a common courtesy to give your name first before asking." Sasuke bluntly said. He got no chill, isn't he? He's talking to Hyuuga Neji of the Hyuuga clan. A clan whom rival the Uchiha before. And Neji's the best rookie last year. For now, Neji has the upper hand. "You're a rookie, aren't you?" Neji asked with the hint of annoyance in his voice. He probably didn't expect Sasuke to be this blunt despite of being a rookie.
Arara, Neji loses his cool. I thought they're supposed to lay low?! Then Lee spoke again asking Sakura to be his girlfriend and then me. "Sorry, Lee. We can become friends but as lovers? It's a no-no." I uttered with a sad smile. "YOSH! WHAT A YOUTHFUL! LET'S BE FRIENDS IT IS!" He said in a joyful tone. He's finally becoming Guy the second. Kakashi will definitely hate this.
"You're the hidden prodigy of the Nara, aren't you?" Neji turned his attention to me. Nope, I'm no hidden anymore because you guys knew it, ehh. Damn, I want to say that but I don't want to be in their bad sides. What a drag! I just slightly bowed my head to them, Tenten and Lee bowed back to acknowledge my greetings. "Yeah, I'm Nara Kashina of the Nara Clan but I'm no prodigy. Nice to meet you, Hyuuga Neji of the Hyuuga Clan." Yeah, I deliberately sound so mature which made Naruto and Sasuke gasped beside me. They didn't expect me to talk with such elegancy and authority.
"Yes, I am Neji Hyuuga. It's also nice to meet you." And then with that we made our way to where Kakashi is, he's waiting to the door with his usual bored expression. Wow, he's not reading his book. He must be afraid or worried about his team.
"I'm proud of you guys. I know you guys can manage. I'll be rooting on you guys!" And then he opened the door of the waiting room for the participants. We walked inside to be greeted by the Rookie nine and the other ninjas from the other village. I widen my senses to find those Sound ninjas especially that Sly Fox, Kabuto. I immediately sensed Orochimaru's gaze on Sasuke so I lay low. I don't want him to look at me like a meat or so whatever. That's so cringy.
"Oho, the gang is now complete!" Kiba said. Ino's hanging with Sasuke while Sakura is barking them out. Lee and Naruto's having a conversation while Hinata and her team is just as quite as ever except Kiba. Shino's just as lazy to start a conversation like Shikamaru while Choji – the best boy, just munching his snacks peacefully.
As I roamed my eyes around, I found Gaara. He wasn't looking at me but when he felt my gaze, he looked back. I just smiled at him and nodded to acknowledge his presence before joining the conversation of the rookie 9.
And then the famous spy of all time finally arrive, I've been waiting since forever to meet him in person, Kabuto the fucking Spy.
