Cells
There was something going on between Naruto and Sasuke at the chairs they were sitting in. Naruto was crouched on top of the chiar in front of Sasuke's face. Sakura screamed; "Naruto you jerk! Leave Sasuke alone!" You saw someone's elbow bump into Naruto, and it pushed him into Sasuke. They kissed, but it was accidental. You could tell they both hated this moment. Sakura of course freaked out about this. Naruto screamed "Poison!! My mouth is ruined!!" Like saying that Sasuke is the worst thing in the world to him. Sakura decided to beat him, and that's just what she did.
Today everyone was waiting for Master Iruka to come in and tell everyone what was the next step. Master Iruka said that everyone would be divided into cells for a Jonin instructor, containing only 3 people. Cell 7 was called out first. Naruto was called out first, then Sakura, the Sasuke. You felt nervous about this, but then again, almost anything would make you nervous.
Master Iruka looked at the chart he was holding. "Oh, (Y/N) (L/N), it looks like you have no one to pair up with. You can stay with Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke for now." You felt your face get warm, but you managed to not show it, and bury that feeling of everyone watching you. Even Sasuke. Your hair was always covering your eyes, and everyone always watched when you walked, maybe trying to see if you would fall in any way. They probably were confused how you could see through your hair.
Everyone else but you, Naruto, Sakura, and Sasuke, had left. Naruto was looking through the door. Obviously angry. "How come we're the only cell that hasn't gotten their instructor yet?!" Naruto yelled. You started to think about this. Even though you're one of the top students in class, you weren't sure this is something you can handle, being a part of this cell. Sakura you can pretty much avoid, Naruto might try to talk to you a lot, and Sasuke might ignore you like he does everyone else.
Naruto put something in between the door at the top. He was obviously making a prank. You sensed footsteps down the hall, that's probably the instructor. As Sakura and Naruto were talking to each other, you went up to Naruto's lousy prank, and took it down. Naruto put one of the chalkboard erasers in the door. You stepped out of the doorway and gave Naruto the eraser, then the instructor came in.
Naruto was bummed that he didn't get to do his prank, but you knew the instructor would have called you and everyone else something that would have caught you off guard. The instructor brought everyone in the cell outside. He revealed his name to be Kakashi Hatake. He asked about a few personal things. Naruto described Ramen a lot. Sakura stated about having a crush, and that she hated Naruto. Sasuke said that he hates a lot of things, there is very little that he likes, but he has his eye on ???????, and that he's also sworn to kill someone else.
Naruto stared at Sasuke then at you. "So, (Y/N), do you want to share things yourself?" You stayed quiet until you can answer. "I don't have a dream or life goal, my hobbies are something I rather keep to myself, and there are often a lot of things that scare me. But, I have someone i'm willing to talk to more despite my insecurities." Everyone looked at you. "Tomorrow we will be taking a survival test. I suggest that you don't eat breakfast tomorrow, unless you enjoy throwing up." Kakashi stated.
The next morning...
You didn't eat a whole lot, even if Kakashi said not to eat anything. You only ate very little. It still left you a bit hungry, but not as much as before. You were all in the same place, waiting for Kakashi.... Again. He arrived at some point, he made an excuse that a black cat was in his path, and he had to go the long way. The assignment was to retrieve a bell before time ran out. Whoever didn't get a bell by noon, didn't only fail, but they also didn't get lunch, and they had to watch everyone else eat while tied to a tree post. There were only two bells. He was making this difficult. On purpose.
Everyone hid when the assignment began. Kakashi stated that you all hid well, then Naruto decided to give himself away. Naruto tries to run up to Kakashi, but Kakashi pulled out a book which caught Naruto off guard. Even as Naruto tries attacking Kakashi, every attack was futile. Even with a book. Kakashi sends Naruto flying into the water at some point.
After a while of Naruto trying to fight, he eventually stopped, and found a bell on the ground. He went to pick it up, but it was a trap. Naruto was hanging from one of his ankles by a rope. Kakashi walks up, picking up the bell, and started lecturing Naruto. Sasuke was preparing his Shuriken, he was aiming for Kakashi. You wanted to stop him, you knew it was another trap, but you didn't have any right to. You thought you weren't capable of passing.
