Title: Train Me!
Chapter: Seven
Rating: Pg 13 light cursing
Pairing: Naru/Kaka
Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto! I just drool over him!
Summery: Before the final phase of the Chuunin exams, Naruto begs Kakashi for extra training and is denied! Naruto doesn't take it very well.

Note from the Author: In the show, they tell you that Orochimaru can’t take another body for three years and that Akatsuki won’t be after Naruto for about three years. I took it to mean that both would try to get what they want as soon as possible and I want to push them both to the limit and make them panicky and stupid! Just to let you know so you don’t thin I didn’t do the research! LOL!

Train Me! Chapter Seven

I have always heard the age old saying that time flies faster when you are having fun. This was the first time in my life that I believed it!

Jiraiya, Sasuke and I had been traveling and training for three and a half years. The pervert would train us heavily as we traveled from one village to another. Once we reached our destination, He would set Sasuke up with some friend he wanted my Ani to train with.

Sometimes he would have me train with one of his friends too.

Usually, I would follow his directions while he went off to do research. After perfecting whatever technique he had set for me, I would work on something of my own.

That was what I was doing on the day that all hell broke loose!

I had been working on my own personal version of the Rasengan for a long time. First, I had to condense the shape even further than the original. It took me about a week to shrink it to my satisfaction.

When I had finished, a large blue marble rested in my palm. It appeared solid until you looked close enough to see the swirls within.

Once I was satisfied, I moved on to training with my element. I would throw a kunai and then attempt to guide it with my wind element. This fortunately only took about two days to get right.

Finally, I attempted to throw my little Rasengan marble. I would throw it as far as I could and try to direct it with my wind.

It was a lot harder than I thought. At first, it would disperse within a few feet of me. Three weeks of hard work ended in amazing results.

I stood in the field that I had been using for training. My deadly blue marble was zipping around the field in a strange dance. Up and down, swoop and swish, the marble flitted about to the tune in my head.

After completing a particularly difficult twisting spiral dive, I aimed it straight for a large tree about fifty feet from the edge of the field.

As it blew into a thousand pieces, I aimed another at a cluster of bushes. That too blasted apart in a spectacular display of power.

“I could do this all day or you could come out of hiding and fight me like a man Kabuto.” I shouted at a small hill.

Chuckling lightly, a tall white haired teen with glasses gracefully stood up from behind the hill. “You have grown very strong Naruto-kun. I am impressed.”

“What the fuck do you want you traitor?” I seethed.

He raised his hands in a careless jutsu, “You have been very hard to find Naruto-kun. Orochimaru-sama has been very anxious.”

I hated him for stalling, “Get to the point bastard!”

“Sorry,” He offered a fake smile, “My master is very angry with you for denying him the Sharingan. He demands your head.”

“I guess you will just have to tell him that you can’t always get what you want in life!” I retorted with my tongue out.

I quickly had to leap into the air as a hand popped out of the ground like a daisy in the snow. I flipped and landed safely at a distance. My hands flew automatically into the hand signs for my favorite jutsu. “Kage Bunshin no Jutsu” I called.

The field filled with smoke as one hundred copies of myself appeared. “You really think that your little clones can help you this time?” he asked incredulously.

The time for talk had ended. If Kabuto were here, then the snake must be near Sasuke. I had to get this over with and go help my friend.

In a flurry of motion, the white haired traitor dashed about the battlefield with a popping sound following in his wake. He systematically destroyed every clone he came across.

He seemed to think that I had not grown at all in the time since he last saw me. This was
to be his downfall.

Using his overconfidence, I allowed him to get close enough to me to use his chakra scalpel on my left thigh. As he was slicing my tendons, I was aiming a blue marble at his neck.

Unfortunately, the freak noticed just in time to doge and took the hit to his right shoulder. It pierced cleanly through and took out a large chunk of ground behind him.

‘Damn!’ I thought. I had not become as perfect at control as I thought. It was meant to blow him to little bits, not the ground behind him.

Kabuto hung back to face me, “I expected more out of you Naruto-kun.” He sounded disappointed.

I lost the battle with my temper and lunged at him. I realized in the air that I was making a stupid gennin level mistake and instantly created several clones. Four of them looked like they were about to play chicken as two were on the shoulders of the others. The top
Naruto’s grabbed my hands and flung me high into the air.

Kabuto watched me fly high and missed it when my clones surrounded him. They each performed a series of earth seals before slamming their right hands on the ground. A great big wall of dirt, burst up around the medical genius.

Up above him, I instantly filled the crater with smoke bombs and explosive tags.

A few minutes later, the smoke cleared to reveal a very battered young man. Kabuto was bleeding so badly that you could not even distinguish what his wounds were.

He used ‘Secret Healing Wound Destruction’ to recover from the damage. His wounds resealed and he used the rag that used to be his shirt to swipe away the remaining blood.

He searched for me but could not detect my location.

Kage Bunshin swarmed over him again in waves. They pounded at him relentlessly. The more he popped, the more I sent. At last, he stepped into the position that I wanted him in.

Low on chakra, he did not notice that one of the kunai on the ground was not like the others.

When his back was to it, the kunai morphed into myself and I slammed my improved Rasengan into his spine, between his shoulder blades. He screamed in agony and fell to the ground.

His damn jutsu saved his worthless ass once again. “I feel sorry for you.” I spit out at him.

His eyes sought mine in surprise. “You could have stayed in Konoha and become a great shinobi with people who cared enough about you to risk their life for yours. Instead, you chose to follow a man who only cares about his own existence.”

His eyes became like two dinner plates in his face. He tried to stutter out a reply but fell silent. He scuttled back as I advanced upon him.

My hand filled with a bright blue light and this time I aimed for his eyes.

The log I hit became a pile of splinters within seconds.

‘That bastard got away again’ I seethed. ‘Every time we get close to winning, he and his master run away like a dog with its tail between his legs. You just know that they will come back again when he gets hungry enough.

I caught my breath as fast as I could before racing to the compound in which my brother was training.

I saw no signs of struggle but refused to rely on that. I scaled the gate and searched the dojo for any signs of life.

I could hear the sound of flesh meeting flesh in a vicious punch. I heard the groan of pain from a man who had just had his ass handed to him.

Not giving it a second thought, red chakra enveloped me and I broke down the door in my haste to enter the room.

Sasuke stood before me in a traditional work out gi. His hair was mussed and he was sweaty from exertion. The man at his feet was the son of the house who had been unlucky enough to get stuck sparing with the Uchiha.

“What is your problem Dobe?” Sasuke barked. I could see the concern he tried to hide.

I had no time to waste on our usual banter. “Jiraiya now!” I demanded and left. I figured that he would follow me without question. Just as I could read him, he knew when I was being serious about something.

We went to the nearby women’s bath as fast as we could. The old peeper was nestled into a comfy little bush that offered him shelter from the certain wrath of angry women if he were found out.

Naruto grabbed him by the collar and dragged him into the open. “What in hell is your problem you little brat?” He whispered harshly. Jiraiya struggled to be released so that he could return to his favorite activity.

“Forget it old man,” I ground out. “We have to get out of here now. It would probably be best to head straight home even.”

That certainly got his attention. “Home? What’s wrong Naruto?”

“Kabuto came by for a chat and to kill me.” My announcement enraged them both. “I only got the better of him because he expected me to still have the brain power of a pea. He was badly injured but he got
away and I for one don’t want to be around if the Snake-sannin comes to town.”

They thankfully agreed with me. “Good!” I exclaimed before I fell forward unconscious. I had apparently used a lot more chakra than I thought I had in my battle.

It was a long time before I woke up again. “About time you carried yourself dobe,” snarled Sasuke.

I carefully lifted my head to find that I was strapped to my brother’s back and that we where very high up in a tree. “I think I can walk now.” I murmured.

He helped me down from his back and to steady myself. “How long was I out and how close are we to home?” I asked.

Jiraiya answered, “You have been out for two and a half days and we will be home by nightfall.”

If I was out that long even with the Kyuubi’s healing abilities, I must have nearly killed myself with chakra exhaustion.

I gazed up to the sky and found that it was only a few hours till nightfall. “We were almost home.” I pondered. “Will Kakashi still want me?”

With all of the much more important things swimming around in my head, the only thought that I seemed able to linger on was the silver haired Jounin.

I had just escaped death, again, by sheer luck alone and all I could think about was if the man I loved would love me back.

I gained a new appreciation for how Sakura managed to function at all with the ferocity of her crush on the raven-haired boy.

That made me wonder if the pink haired girl had gotten any stronger while we were gone and also made me think about the rest of my friends.

I was so busy going in mental circles that I failed to realize that we had arrived at the gates.

We were back home and I wasn’t sure what to be afraid of most, the villagers or my loved ones.

I was yanked from my thoughts as a familiar voice rang out through the streets.

“Naruto!”
