Disclaimer:
I do not own Naruto, nor any of the characters from it. I do not make any money from the writing of this story.
Victorian village
I do plan to finish this story, unlike my other works.
its just taking me a lot longer then i wanted for the next chapter.....
umm any beta readers out there?? My last one moved to Japan..
About the healing powers he has: In the manga, Naruto says, “No matter what the injury a good nights sleep is all I need!” Problem is that Naruto isn’t getting a good night’s sleep. He’s hardly getting any, and when he does sleep is when he is injured. Don’t worry it will be explained as things go on. Can’t give everything away at once without making you think first! ;)
More on the plot:
As I said, this fic is evolving as I type it. In fact this is about the 4th version of this chapter, and I still don’t like it! I don’t even know where it came from! It kinda just wrote itself. Mostly a setup for the next few chapters. I’m sure you’re gonna like those. More of everyone’s fav pairing!
I’m trying to write it so at least one chapter is devoted to a character. For example, in the second chapter there was a lot more of Sasuke’s thoughts then anyone else’s. This one its Sakura and Kakashi’s. I’m just doing this to explore more of their characters. I feel that for a fic to be good, even if you don’t like a character, its best to put them in character. If that makes sense. 0.o
Chapter 3
Victorian village
Kakashi woke the next morning from his light sleep in a tree above the clearing. Sunlight lightly flickered through the leaves and onto his masked face. A few song birds began their greeting songs, making him smile under the fabric. He scanned the area around the grassy clearing. None of his animal traps had been disturbed, so it looked like it was going to be an instant breakfast’ morning.
His eye rested on Naruto who was still awake. His attention was brought to the young ninja hours ago, when he was woken by the whimpering. He watched as the boy twitched and yelped like an animal till he woke up. He had also seen that Sasuke had heard him and was watching him from the dark. There was some rustling around before everything went still Kakashi had waited for him to go to sleep, but the boy just sat there, staring into the night. Sasuke had long since fallen asleep watching his teammate sit there.
`Not like him to be up all night.` He thought as he removed himself from the tree and appeared soundless behind the young ninja.
"You’re up early.” He said startling Naruto, who jumped.
“Oh! Morning Kakashi sensei! Did you sleep well?”
“Hai hai, that I did. You didn’t though.” He stated. Naruto shook his head and responded with a smile.
“I didn’t clear the ground enough before making my bed.”
Kakashi smiled with his one visible eye. “Alright then, sense you’re the only other one up at this hour, would you go get some fire wood so we can start breakfast?”
“Hai!” Naruto got out of his bed and wandered off into the trees to look for wood. Kakashi turned and looked down at his other two sleeping students. Sakura lay there unaware of the night’s minor event, while Sasuke slept tired from watching and waiting for him teammate to go back to sleep. He shook his head.
“If you think there is something wrong with a teammate then ask them.” He said more to himself then them. They were fast asleep. He grabbed the bag with the food and began to set up.
*~*~*~*~*
It was evening by the time they arrived in the village. The sun had been high in the sky all day without a breath of wind. Kakashi had made them do double time without a break, to make up for the late start they had the day before. Team 7, despite long hours of training, were tired from the long walk/jog. Sweat clung to their foreheads, matting the wet hair to the skin.
The village was small, but had a warm welcoming feeling about it. The houses were different than that of the Leaf Village. They were painted all different colors, with a different color trim. They were also big. About two or three stories each, with lots of windows and soft, butter colored curtains. Wind chimes hung from the tree branches that stretched out over the road, glistened in the sunlight as they passed.
Buildings were far apart with freshly mowed front lawns and benches where people sat and watched them walk by. They smiled and waved hello as they passed. The buildings then became smaller and closer together, as they entered the more business part of the town and out of the suburbs. Shops appeared and food stands along the road gave off the aroma of cooked fish and noodles.
“Kakashi sensei, are you paying for dinner?” Naruto asked hopefully as all three sat down in the cool shade of the ramen stand. They could smell the fresh aroma of the shop smell from down the street. It was the same as the Konoha Village ramen stands, but it smelled more of ingredients being prepared rather than ramen being served.
“Nope. We’re not eating here.” He said not bothering to look at them.
“What?! Why not?” Naruto asked looking up from the menu he had been scanning, to see if there was any kind of ramen that he hadn’t tired before.
“Because we gotta get heading back now.”
“Don’t we have to deliver that scroll?” Sakura inquired leaning over to look past her teammates and at her teacher. Usually on missions such as this they were informed about what it was that they were carrying, but Kakashi changed the subject when she had asked.
“Done,” Kakashi said handing the man who approached the counter the scroll. The man accepted the scroll with a small bow.
“Hai! Thank you very much. I’ve been waiting for this recipe for quite some time.” The old man replied. “It has been too long my old friend. How have you been these past few years?”
“Recipe?” Naruto questioned.
Sakura watched the blond ninja’s eyes light up. Now she knew why Kakashi didn’t tell them. `If that baka had known it was a ramen recipe who knows what he would have done!`
Kakashi smiled and started up a conversation with his old friend. “I’ve been good, same old you know. These are my student; Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura. Everyone this is Nakamura Hiroshi.”
“Hey.”
“Hello.”
“Recipe?”
The man behind the counter gave a hearty laugh as he examined the unfolded scroll in his hands. “Yes for a special kind of shrimp and spices ramen.”
Naruto looked at Kakashi with pleading puppy eyes, his question not needing to be asked.
“We don’t have time. We have to get back before the storm hits.”
Sasuke turned his gaze to the sky for the fist time that day. It was warm and sunny not a cloud to be seen. Birds chirped and sang in the trees all along the streets of the village. `Must be the calm before the storm.` He thought to himself, wishing he had bothered to listen to the weather report before they had left. Sasuke turned and glanced at his teammate in orange. He wasn’t acting as tired as he should be for someone who never slept the night before. He then took into consideration the young ninja’s energy level on a regular day. ¡¥He would probably need to be awake a whole week before he showed signs of fatigue.’
“Hai. Isn’t that storm going to hit us sometime tonight, Kakashi sensei?” Sakura asked turning away from the still trying to look heart broken Naruto who sat pouting.
“If you like we have some extra beds. You are welcome to stay the night and head back in the morning.” The cook offered, “We can catch up with one another. Chiharu would be delighted to see you again.”
“I don’t think we can...” Kakashi started then caught the looks on the team’s tired and aggravated faces, making a chill go through his spine. “Looks like I’m out numbered. We would love to stay if it’s not too much trouble.” He smiled with his one visible eye.
“Not at all.”
