Both of them, Sumi and Kenpachi, were tied up to the large tree like stumps in the training ground field. Kenpachi frowned and under his breath whispered, "Genjutsu," It hurt his ego to be defeated by a girl and would have to live it down.

He glanced at the pole beside him to see his sensai reading a orange book that's title read Icha Icha Paradise. Mayuri-sensai had long blonde hair and bright blue eyes with a slight tan from training in the sun. He wore a pink kimono with pinky red flower petals for a pattern. It was open to show his well toned chest. He had the one side of the bottom held up to show his leg while the other one was down normally. On his arms were scale arm guards and a maroon colored obi(sash) around his waist.

On the third and final pole Sumi was tied up, her shoulders trembling. Her usually large, friendly, happy, chocolate brown eyes were filled with fear and shock.

"Maybe that jutsu was too advanced for you two. I guess I should tone it down a notch next time…" Subaru's cool voice broke through the silence. Subaru was perched on top of the pole Sumi was tied to.

Mayuri snickered, "Subby-chan sure gave you two a fright, didn't she?" he slipped a piece of string in the book he was reading before closing it. He hopped down elegantly from the pole and started to pace in front of his team, his thumb and index finger holding his chin.

"I've been thinking kitties…" He started only to be already interrupted by Subaru.

"Oh boy, this can't be good…"

Mayuri ignored his student and went on, "As I was saying… You have been training with each other for awhile and know most of each other's attacks. It gets boring sometimes. Plus you trust one another to worn each other of attacks. Like Sumi-chan and Ken-kun here. That's why I've taken the liberty of talking to-,"

"Me," A cheerful voice interrupted the blonde man.

Mayuri smiled and turned around, his team looking at the voice too.

A man with a navy blue mask on and a Kohona head band covering one eye stood there. He wore a Jounin vest and a pair of midnight blue shorts that ended just above the ankle. He had gray hair styled tall and spiky on the top of his head. In his hand was a small orange book that's cover read Icha Icha Paradise.

"You guys will train with my team for awhile," Kakashi told them, smiling under his mask.

Subaru smirked and hopped off the pole, slicing the rope holding her female teammate to the wood, "Sweet, a challenge,"

Sumi picked herself up and dusted herself off before looking at Kenpachi who was still sadly tied to the tree like pole.

Mayuri smiled perkily and to Kenpachi's luck, untied him. The boy leapt up, stretching his aching muscles.

"are we starting tomorrow?" Ken asked hopefully.

Kakashi snorted, "You wish,"

"Y-you m-mean were training w-with you and y-our t-team today?" Sumi small voice asked timidly.

"Yup" Kakashi grinned, "We should head to the training grounds… My team gets…impatient…sometimes," he chuckled and turned around, heading off though still reading his book.

"What's taking him so long!?" a blonde boy punched a tree, frustrated and scrapping his knuckles.

"It's Kakashi, dope. What do you expect?" came a cold voice sitting in the same tree his teammate had hit.

The blonde one, Naruto growled, "Shut up teme. I wasn't asking you,"

"Don't talk to Sasuke-kun like that, baka!" The only girl punched Naruto on the head then looked up at Sasuke lovingly.

The Uchiha glared at her, "leave me alone Sakura," he spat.

"Don't talk to Sakura-chan that way!" Naruto whined at the raven hair boy, getting over the blow to the head he received.

"Sorry, I'm late," Kakashi called to the team who all looked at him, "I had to find another team to train with you guys,"

"nice try Kakashi-sensai! I'm not falling for that lie!" Naruto shook his fist at the older man.

"Actually, It's true," Came sing-song voice from behind Kakashi.

Mayuri stepped up beside his friend, "Come out don't be shy," He cooed to his team.

Subaru was the first to strut in with Sumi hiding behind her and Kenpachi walking in, yawning and his arms crossed behind his head, leisurely.

As Subaru stepped into the clearing, Sasuke automatically jumped from the tree, his lean body stiff and aware.

Subaru smirked challenging him, daring him to do something.

A small smirk twitched its way on the Uchiha's lips. He bent his knees slightly ready to leap at her.

"As it seems Sasuke and Subby here are raring to go, you two can fight first," Mayuri told them, glancing over Kakashi's shoulder to look at the book's content.

Everybody went over to the side lines, leaving Sasuke and Subaru in the middle, both smirking.

Naruto and Sakura were cheering for Sasuke though Naruto hated to admit it. Kenpachi and Sumi cheered for Subaru though they both knew it would end up her winning like usual.

Subaru drew out her ninja stealth knifes and leaped at Sasuke elegantly. He pulled out a kunai, hitting it against one of her two blades.

She used her other blade but was hit with another kunai, making her growl with distaste. In a swift motion she pushed herself away, "Multiple Shadow Snake Hands,"

At least seven or so snakes emerged from her arms and wrapped around his abdomen, biting into his gut and one on each shoulder, their fangs sinking into his flesh.

He let out a yowl of pain, gritting his teeth Sasuke struggled to get free of the snake's fangs.

"Stop! Kakashi-sensai make her stop! She'll kill him!!" Sakura screamed, standing up and her green eyes on the edge of tears.

"A-actually S-Sakura-san," Came a small voice making Naruto and Sakura look over to Sumi, "T-this jutsu is j-just for getting c-closer to t-the enemy. It won't kill Sasuke-san," she murmured to them, her eyes watching Subaru.

Sakura sighed him relief, "Good," she whispered.

"Luckily," sumi added more to herself but the other's still heard.

Sakura, again, started to stand ready to scream.

"What!?" She cried shrilly.

Sumi shifted uncomfortably, "ummm…well u-usually there s-s-should be at least 15 s-snakes out t-there. And S-Subaru d-doesn't just t-train for fun. T-to get better."

Everyone but Subaru and Sasuke were watching her, making her face light up like a Christmas light, "S-She trains to toy. She t-trains w-with a k-killing intent,"

Subaru pulled Sasuke closer to her, her knife stabbing into her chest, the very center.

Sasuke screamed out before he disappeared in a puff of smoke, leaving a log in the snake's clutches.

The black haired female blinked before she screamed out, "UCHIHA!!!!"

"Looking for someone?" His voice came tauntingly from a tree.

"Mythical Fire Phoenix Technique!" Fire balls shot from his mouth, at least 8.

Subaru smirked and dodged each one. When they hit the ground she realized that shurikin were hidden in them. She gritted her teeth together before lunging at him and saying, "Demonic Illusion Hell Viewing Technique."

Leaves started to spin around him, surrounding him in the tornado of them. Sasuke looked around, not seeing anyone or anything but trees. He felt a sudden pain in his chest, making him wince. He opened his eyes again to see the street running through the Uchiha estate. He felt himself running, looking around for anyone.

He then came to his own home where he started to walk along the porch that surrounded the side of the house. It was dead silent. No birds, no children, no insects, nothing besides his small feet hitting the polished wood planks beneath him.

He came to two doors, with large gold colored hands. Sasuke brought his shaky hand and opened the door.

"n-n-no," He gasped. His father lay over his mother, both covered in blood.

Behind them stood a tall dark figure whose face he could not see but he wore an Anbu outfit and was holding a sword.

The man slowly turned his head towards Sasuke, the moon light illuminating his face.

Sasuke's eyes widened and he felt tears form in his eyes and run down his ivory cheeks.

"N-No!" he cried, "Brother!"

Sasuke's eyes shot open, tears still falling from them, his head in pain and his hand shakily gripping his hair.

Naruto was crouched in front of him his eyes showing confusion and worried. Sakura was sobbing into his back, her hands clammy on his shirt.

Kenpachi stood beside Subaru, a frown set under his mask.

"S-Sasuke-san?" A small voice called to him making him look over his shoulder.

Sumi carefully approached him, before she crouched down beside him.

"S-Sasuke-san. I n-need you t-to take deep b-breaths, okay?" he did as he was told and closed his eyes calmly, his hands falling to his lap. Sakura pulled herself off of her usually stoic teammate.

Sumi placed her hands on either side of his face and let green chakra massage his head. Sasuke's eyes closed once again, tiredly. His face fell a bit forward in pleasure.

Sumi bit her lip, trying to get rid of the emotional trauma that Subaru had given the boy.

Sakura sniffled, jealously lit her eyes that Sumi could make him feel better but shecouldn't. It wasn't fair!

"N-Naruto-kun? C-can you h-help m-me lift him?"

Naruto nodded and slung Sasuke's arm around his neck while Sumi did it more gently. They went off to the side of the clearing and leaned him against a tree.

Sakura glared at Sumi before she turned to Kakashi, "May I fight next, Kakashi-sensai?"

Kakashi glanced up from his book but nodded, "Sure, who do you want to fight?"

Sakura smiled, "Her," She pointed at Sumi, who's head shot up, "W-what!?"

Sumi and Sakura stood across from each other in the clearing. Sumi's cheeks were flushed from nerves and her shoulder and knees seemed to be trembling.

Subaru glared at Sakura, "If you hurt Sumi-chan…your next and it'll be worse than your boyfriend," Venom dripped from every word.

Sakura decided to be brave, "Is that a threat?" she asked glared back.

"No," Subaru shook her head, "it's a promise,"

Sakura felt a shiver run up her spine and gulped hard, 'Calm down. You can beat this girl easy,' She told herself staring hard at the shivering shape of Sumi.

"Go Sumi!!! Kick her pink ass!!" Kenpachi shouted waving his fist in the air.

Sakura ran at Sumi, throwing three kunai at her. Sumi dodged before throwing her own.

Moving out of the way of the kunai, Sakura called, "Cherry Blossom Snow storm Technique," Sakura clapped her hands together, she slowly separated them showing a string with kunai attached to it. She thrusted her hands forward, the kunai with the cherry blossoms shooting at Sumi. Sakura then shot a last kunai at her.

BOOM!!

Fire exploded right where Sumi was standing.

The pink haired girl smiled smugly, running a hand through a lock of her long cotton candy pink hair.

As the fire died away everybody besides Sasuke who was half asleep was looking for a injured or dead Sumi but found nothing.

Sakura frowned, "Where's the-," Sakura's body was flung forward with such force a snap was heard and she was thrown in to the forest.

Sumi frowned, "T-t-that w-wasn't very n-n-nice, S-Sakura-san," She scolded timidly, "n-not at all."

Subaru started to jump up and down, screaming, "That's my girl!!! You kicked her pink ass!!!!!!"

Kenpachi grinned, "Oh! That was amazing Sumi-chan!!" he cried out pulling his teammate into a bear hug, making her giggle and blush bashfully.

Naruto was angry. No. that was too weak to use, more like infuriated, "That's not nice, Sumi-chan!" He shouted at her as Kenpachi put her down.

"I-it's t-t-training N-Naruto-kun," She murmured to him, looking down at her feet.

"Yeah, but you went and almost killed Sakura-chan!"

Kenpachi snarled at him, "You didn't have your panties in a bunch when Subby-chan nearly killed Uchiha-san," He spat.

Naruto growled before leaping at him, his hands going for his neck. Kenpachi landed on his back, surprised.

Ruthlessly, Naruto started to punch his face, one after the other, after the other.

"The next fight has started already…" Mayuri mused, reading his own Icha Icha Paradise book.

Sumi was paralyzed to the spot, in absolute shock.

"Ice Rain Technique!"

It looked as if it was raining, but only more deadly as inch long ice spikes rained from the sky.

'Oh kami! I'm gonna die!' Sumi thought bracing herself. Instead, strong arms pulled her away. She blinked, realizing that Sasuke had saved her, "T-t-thank y-you s-so much!" She cried at him.

"Hn," He grunted sitting down beside her with a small sigh.

Kenpachi pushed Naruto off with his knees before again saying, "Ice Rain Technique!"

They came again raining over the blonde boy.

"Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu!" At least 100 or so Narutos popped out of nowhere, appearing all around them.

"Charge!" The real Naruto shouted, pointing at Kenpachi.

The Narutos galloped at him, punching, kicking and hitting him at any chance they got.

Taking one Naruto, Kenpachi threw him into another, making them poof away.

"One Horned White Whale!"

The ice that had fallen from the sky started to form into a large shiny whale. Kenpachi jumped up above the ice animal, who flopped down on the clearing they were fighting in crushing all of the Narutos.

The whale started to melt and as Kenpachi landed on the ground it was just a large puddle water.

Naruto groaned and rolled over, "Damn…it" He wheezed.

Kenpachi frowned, "that's what happens when you mess with me and my teammates." He said proudly.

Kakashi sighed, coming back into the water filled clearing, Sakura limp over his shoulder. He placed her down on the ground by a tree. Twigs and leaves clung to her body and hair.

Kakashi went over and pulled Naruto up and over his shoulder, "No….Sensai…I can…still…beat…him," Me mumbled squirming out of Kakashi's grasp with an epic fail.

Kakashi plopped him down by Sakura before turning to Mayuri, "Your team is strong," He complemented.

Mayuri grinned, "It's our turn to show 'em how it's done Kakashi-kun,"

Kakashi snapped his book shut after Mayuri placed the string in his and disposing it in his pocket as Kakashi followed suit, "Sure,"
