Chapter 4
Sasuke stood ready to face his red head sensei. Kurama cracked his wipe and motioned for Sasuke to go first. Dawn huffed. “Sasuke, you over grown show off! You won’t last five minutes against Sensei!”
Sasuke glared back at Dawn darkly. Dawn froze. “Let go of me, would you?” asked Paul’s voice with slight annoyance. Dawn looked down at him immediately and removed her arms from him.
“There is no respect among your team. Knowledge is important, so is teamwork and trust. There is neither among you three,” Kurama said.
“Who needs teamwork when you have power?” Sasuke asked cockily. Kurama narrowed his eyes. He could see Sasuke becoming a cold and heartless killer if he didn’t change his attitude soon.
“Your move,” Kurama said. Sasuke smirked and disappeared. Kurama snapped his whip to dance around him. This caught Sasuke off guard. The whip cut him on the hand and his cheek.
He jumped in a quick motion and appeared behind Kurama and launched a kick. Kurama ducked and grabbed him by the foot and jerked his wrist forward. Sasuke slammed face first into the ground.
Sasuke looked sideways at his sensei and growled. He launched a horse like kick with is free foot. Kurama moved his head and flung Sasuke into a tree. Sasuke began doing hand signs in the tree. He jumped from the branch he had landed on and used his Gokakyu no Jutsu. Fire shot from his mouth.
Kurama widened his eyes in amazement. No Genin fresh out of training could control their chakara so easily. It wasn’t just coming for Kurama but the other genin on his team as well. Kurama quickly signed some hand signs and slammed his hand into the ground. A giant wood dome formed around them to divert the fire. He quickly signed some more signs and thrusted his hands into the ground again.
Sasuke gaped at the huge wood dome that his sensei had made to divert the fire. The ground under him cracked. All he got was a look before roots wrapped themselves around him and pulled him to the ground.
The wood dome melted back into the earth. Kurama walked over to the ensnared Sasuke. “You lost Uchiha, now you must respect my teachings,” he said with a smile. Sasuke looked away shamefaced and grumbled.

Luma flapped her arms around in front of her. “What’s the point in using these just to find you?” she asked. Rock Lee and Misty were quite confused as well.
“You children of this age rely too much on sight alone,” grunted Kurogane in the darkness. “Use something other then your eyes.”
I still don’t get it, Luma thought. Suddenly, someone knocked into her and the two toppled to the ground.
“Sorry,” said a voice.
“Rock Lee? Could you please get off of me,” Luma said.
“Sure Luma,” Rock Lee replied pulling himself up, but not two seconds before he could get up, a new cry pierced the air and added weight landed on Luma.
“Kurogane-sensei?” asked Misty’s voice.
“Misty-chan!” Rock Lee cried happily.
“No,” Luma answered. “Just me and Rock Lee in a dang dog pile.”
Kurogane sighed from the top of the tree and grumbled something under his breath. The three turned their heads towards the west. There was a silent rustle of tree branches. “Follow your instincts and try to find me. Wait a few minutes before you come after me.” Kurogane disappeared.
Misty stood and backed an up a few feet until she backed into a tree. Rock Lee rose off of Luma and backed away several feet. Luma rose last. “Okay, where are you guys?” Misty asked.
“Here,” each of them replied one at a time.
“Any idea of how this is going to work?” Luma asked.
“Maybe it’s relying on our power of youth and-!” Lee began but was cut off by Misty.
“That isn’t the reason, Lee,” Misty said. “Let’s start walking. Maybe he’s off somewhere near the training grounds.”
“Maybe,” replied the rest of the team. The three new genin began stumbling through the forest training grounds.

Fai led his team to an outdoor restaurant. He looked at one of the people in the back of the restaurant. “Hyuu~!” he fake whistled. “Kuro-Rin!” The big man in black flinched.
“Kuro-Rin!” Fai sang again. The bigger man turned to look at them with a scowl on his face.
“Fai-sensei, who’s that?” Syaoran asked slightly timidly.
“He seems in a terrible mood,” Sakura and Lucinda observed.
“That’s Big Doggy!” Fai sang. “He’s always in a terrible mood.” He stepped lightly over to the irritated ninja. “What’s up, Kuro-chan?”
“Why the hell do you always come to the same place I come to?” he growled. Fai’s students backed away a little.
“Oh, Kuro-chan, how’s the new students?” Fai asked.
“Their training right now,” Kurogane replied.
“How can they be training if you’re not there?” Lucinda asked.
“Don’t question me, alright kid?” Kurogane turned to face her. “This is part of their training.”
“Oh, is it hat one, Kuro-Fai?” Fai asked.
“QUIT CALLING ME THAT!!” Kurogane shouted at Fai. The entire restaurant turned to look at them.
“Kurotan,” Fai smiled. “You can make anyone scared with your shouts.” Kurogane turned back to the table and tried his best not to hit the other instructor and quietly grumbled under his breath.
“Exactly what is the training, Kurogane-san?” asked Sakura.
Kurogane turned to Sakura and then turned back to his cup of sake. “It’s rather easy in theory, but rather hard to grasp. Everything gives off energy waves known as chakara. The chakara radiation is different for inanimate objects and living things. By taking away someone’s sight, they can use the radiation to tell where an enemy is. It’s perfect when dealing with anything that messes with the mind,” Kurogane explained.
“It’s really all based on intuition,” added Fai. “Our sensei taught it to Kurotan and I when we were teammates with Kakashi Hayate.”
“The famous Copy Eye Shinobi Kakashi Hayate?!” the kids asked impressed. The ever famous Kakashi Hayate was quite well known before he had gone missing.
“That’d be Kaka-chin!” Fai smiled.
“Now, go the hell away,” Kurogane glared at Fai.
