Visiting a gun shop

Chapter 12

After we were finally in town, I ran straight to a store. I stared longingly into the shop window. Sasuke came and tapped me lightly on the shoulder: "We're not here to buy shoes." "But ..." I started, but the black-haired man was already pulling me away from the window, in a different direction. "Where are we going?" I asked him. "To one of the best gun shops.", Sasuke answered me and stopped at a big shop. "Cool. Tell me, do you have any money with you?" I asked him. Without any ulterior motives, of course. "It's okay, I'll pay you." Sasuke gave in immediately. "Thanks, you will get it back as soon as possible." I promised, although I still had no idea how to get the money. "In no hurry. Come on now.", He urged me and ran into the shop. “Yes, yes.” I followed Sasuke and was amazed when I saw all the guns hanging on the walls: “That's crazy.” “Do you think so?” Sasuke asked unimpressed. "Yes! My mother doesn't even allow me to cut tomatoes on my own, and now I'm supposed to kill people with a couple of throwing knives," I explained. "Well, that's life." Sasuke shrugged his shoulders. "Sure, today on a sand hill and tomorrow on Mount Everest." I laughed. "Exactly." It seemed as if Sasuke was only half listening to me. Rather, he had eyes for all the guns hanging in the shop. "What do you think of this?", Sasuke wanted to know from me. "Sewing needles?" I asked skeptically. "You can only hurt a fly with it." "It's highly toxic. If you stab someone in the hand, for example, he'll die," he explained to me. "Oh, that's different, of course. But then it will be pretty easy to avenge Kakashi.", I was happy. "Well, you still have to train because none of Akatsuki willingly peck you in the hand.", Sasuke pointed out. "Yeah, you're probably right," I admitted. "Hm ... But, can't we maybe buy the um ... standard things first?", I wanted to know, because when I really thought about it, I didn't feel like killing myself with poison while training. "Sure, then we first choose Kunais, then throwing stars and finally something that is really good," said Sasuke. “Cool.” I followed Sasuke and let him choose the weapons. After a short time we had bought a whole bag full.

After we finally left the shop, I noticed that Neji was watching us from afar, so I decided to go to him: "Hey. What are you doing here?" "Hello. I have an appointment with Hinata here." Neji me. "Is that your girlfriend?" I asked with a conspiratorial grin. "That's his cousin.", Sasuke explained, who was standing behind me. "Oh ..." I said disappointed. "There she comes.", Neji said and pointed to a girl with black hair. He greeted the girl with a hug.She blushed when she saw Sasuke and me. "H-hello ..." she greeted us shyly. "Hi, I'm Caro. Your name is Hinata, isn't it?" I smiled at her in a friendly way. Hinata nodded. "So what are you going to do now?" I asked Neji and Hinata. "We want to go to training.", Neji answered of course. "Ah ha." Sasuke poked me in the side, which should mean that he wanted to leave. "Well, we have to go then, too." I said goodbye to both of them. "I would be happy if you visit me. I don't know many people here yet." I said before Sasuke pulled me away. "Hey, I wanted to have a chat." I complained angrily. "So what. You heard Neji, they have to train. By the way, we should do that too, the exams will start soon.", Sasuke said. "I don't really care about the exams. After all, I don't want to be a great ninja," I explained. "Yes, but if you fail the exam, the whole team will fail." He crossed his arms over his chest. "Oh yeah ... uh ..." I blushed. Of course I hadn't thought of that. "That's why you will train nicely!", Sasuke ordered me and pulled me towards the training ground. "It's fine, but I still don't know how to use my magic." I reminded him. "Chakra, not magic.", He corrected me then. "But you will learn all of this. The best thing to do is train with Naruto at home." "As far as I am. But first I want to learn how to run so fast." I squealed happily. "That is irrelevant, you don't need it for the exam.", Sasuke said sternly. "Still ...!" I replied, offended. "We're here, then try out your new weapons.", Sasuke suggested to me. I nodded and rummaged in my pocket. "I think we need small bags for you too," he said. "You mean those weird little bags that you have on your leg?" I made sure. "Exactly. Otherwise you have to search for 10 minutes before you can fight.", Sasuke laughed softly. I think that was the first time he laughed. "Ok, where can I buy these?" I asked him. "You don't need some, I still have some at home, you are welcome to have them.", Sasuke offered me in a friendly manner. "Thanks." I smiled. "I'll bring it to your training tomorrow. Now let's get started." "Good, but why don't we pick up the bags together? That would be a lot easier." I wanted to know. Sasuke suddenly turned to me: "Y-that takes up time. We have to ... train now. And you don't need them that badly ... right?" "Yes, you are probably right ...! "I replied a little suspiciously. "Well, let's start training now." He took something out of his pocket ... Kunais. "What do we do now?" I wanted to know. "You have to learn how to dodge," said Sasuke. Since I already had a certain premonition, I took a few steps back."Y-you want to throw me away with it, don't you?" I looked at him suspiciously. "Yes. But don't worry, nothing will happen to you." Sasuke waved him off. "Oh no? It's not like you plan to throw me with cuddly toys, is it?" I looked at him angrily. "No, definitely not. Just trust me." Sasuke got ready to throw. "If I weren't friends with him I would slap him now," I mumbled and took a few steps back. "Throw!" I yelled at him. He nodded and started throwing. I immediately ducked and ran behind the nearest tree. On the other side, Sasuke suddenly appeared and kept throwing. Again I avoided the kunai. The next kunai came up to me, right in the middle of my face. "Duck!" Yelled Sasuke. Immediately I threw myself on the floor. "Climb the tree! Use your surroundings!" He shouted again. "It's so easy to say!" I yelled back. "Don't talk!" He ordered me. The next kunai flew. I tried to climb up the tree, but kept falling because otherwise I would get a flying knife rammed into my back. After many painful attempts, I finally made it. "Got it!" I yelled happily. Suddenly a kunai flew to me in the treetop. I fell down on the other side of the tree in shock. “Aaahh!” My back hit the floor. "Ouch!" Suddenly Sasuke stood in front of me and put his foot on my stomach. He looked down at me reproachfully. “If I were your opponent now, you'd be dead.” I coughed and gasped so that I spat blood. Sasuke helped me up. "Are you okay?" He asked me. I shook my head. "I just fell down a tree," I whispered, looking at him. "That happened to all of us at the beginning," said Sasuke. He didn't feel sorry for me at all. "Fine, but I wasn't prepared for it." I looked at him angrily. "I'm sorry, I should have been more careful," he apologized. "It's okay, I'm just not used to that," I explained. "Can we maybe continue training tomorrow? Remember, I was just released from the hospital today." "Sure, maybe we should go to Tsunade again first and ask if you are really ready to train again.", suggested Sasuke. "Just not. If she finds out that I'm spitting blood, I can go straight back to the hospital for a week." I refused. "Will you take me to Naruto?" I looked at Sasuke questioningly. "Of course, pack your things up again quickly, then we can go." "Ok, thank you." I quickly found my new weapons and put them in my pocket. "I'm wearing this." Sasuke took the bag from me. "Thanks." I smiled. "That was a great training session," I laughed. "What should you do. I don't want you to die." He grinned. “Nice to know.” I nudged him lightly on the side. "Are you sure you are not okay?"Sasuke raised his eyebrows." Sure, why? "I wanted to know." You're so happy again. ", he answered me." I'm just a cheerful person you pessimist. "I replied snippily." Then I wonder why you are always in such a bad mood when it comes to training. "Sasuke looked at me sideways." Um ... because ... oh, that's a science in itself. "He looked at me doubtfully." Well then ...! "" It doesn't matter. Let's run a little faster, okay? I'm hungry. "Without waiting for an answer, I ran a little faster." Hungry? Haven't you eaten anything? "Sasuke gave me a questioning look." N-not exactly. I wanted to, but ... somehow I ... didn't get around to it. "I stammered." Why not? ", he wanted to know." Is that so important now ?! "" No, not really. All right. ", he waved it off. Nobody said anything more. I couldn't think of anything to talk about and Sasuke ... he doesn't talk much anyway." All right, we're here. "" Oh right. Thanks for bringing it home. "I gave Sasuke a quick hug and gave him a friendly kiss on the cheek." See you tomorrow. " "Yes until tomorrow. And don't forget, you have school again tomorrow. "With these words he disappeared again." Oh yes ... ", I mumbled not very enthusiastic. When I wanted to ring the doorbell, I noticed that Naruto was already in the door:" Hey. "" Hey. Is what? "I asked him." No. Why do you ask? ", he wondered." You look kind of weird. "I explained and went into the house." Oh, I didn't even notice. "He smiled at me." Well then. Don't you wanna see my new clothes "Without waiting for his answer, I emptied the bag." Well? What do you think? "" Quite a lot, don't you think? "He looked at the pile of weapons skeptically." N-well ... the more the merrier. "I replied." Sure, but I mean now to start with. Besides, I'm the one who has to pay for it. "Naruto interjected." That's right, and I'm really grateful to you for that. And I'll give you the money back at some point. "I looked at his face with a big smile." You are lucky that I think you are so cute when you lie. "laughed Naruto. My face flushed." Yes, probably ... "I smiled
