"Kakashi-sensei wants 'teamwork' right?" asked Naruto. "That's what he said the point of the whole test was."
"True," allowed Sasuke.
"So, that's what we give him," said Naruto, squatting down and smoothing out a patch of dirt. "When he shows up again, he'll probably try to startle us and then give us some repeat of the test. THIS time though, we can't beat him using the same tactic. He'll be able to get away by the time I can pull off a teleport."
"How does that work anyway?" asked Sasuke.
"I can answer that," said Sakura, rubbing a point on her arm where the ropes had been a bit too tight. "Naruto's teleport jutsu can move an area or target anywhere he's been or has a good idea of. Really long distances require special tags be set up ahead of time. The more he moves, the longer it takes."
Sasuke considered that for a few seconds, remembering his fight against Kakashi. He'd known something had been going on during it, but hadn't known what at that time. "It takes time though."
"Yes, the longer the distance, the longer the time to do it," said Sakura. "We recently went from one world to an entirely different one."
"Where girls like this lived," extrapolated Sasuke.
"Yeah," said Naruto, giving up on trying to draw out battle plans in the dirt. "Also, the longer the teleport - the more tired I'll be at the end."
Sasuke considered that in ninja combat terms. Get to an objective, and you could then get back to a safe area. Smuggle one of these tags in, and bypass outer security. Yes, a useful talent. He mentally uprated Naruto from [Annoying Dead Last] to [Potentially Useful Moron.] "He'll be ready for that, but how much weight can you teleport with you?"
"Okay, this is getting ridiculous," said Kakashi as he vaulted over a spitting cobra and managed to block a stream of wooden skewers that were thrown in a very rapid barrage.
"With stamina like this, you might just be worth this effort," said Anko.
"Whoa." Kakashi held up a hand. "Wait one moment. You mean you're not trying to punish me for being teleported against my will into the women's bath?"
"Huh, no, not at all," said Anko, licking a kunai. "I got a good look at you without your clothes."
"So... you're actually pursuing me because you're..." Kakashi considered the somewhat attractive special jonin and tried to gauge how serious she was.
"Wanting to tie you down, strip you naked, and then," began Anko. She spoke briefly, occasionally stopping to make descriptive gestures.
"Oh," said Kakashi. Who considered the possibility of dying from such activities. Which actually seemed significantly higher than if she was just trying to beat on him. "Well, in that case... Bye Bye!"
It was really a pity that with one eye covered, his peripheral vision wasn't better. Or that his chakra wasn't as depleted as it was. Or that he wasn't a bit winded at this point.
He fled, jogged hard right at the end of the alley, and -
- managed to knock over and land atop Kurenai Yuhi.
"Uhm," said Kakashi, looking down into Kurenai's startled (and slightly inebriated) face. "This isn't what it looks like."
Kurenai's startled expression gave way to looking at her own chest, where a hand that was not her own was cupping one breast. Said hand gave said breast an experimental squeeze or two.
"Whoa," said Anko from somewhere behind them. "You're into threesomes? This is getting better and better all the time."
Zip Zoom Zing! went Kakashi, not in control of the situation and wondering how the heck THAT had happened.
Zing! went Anko, in hot pursuit.
Kurenai lay there on the ground for a moment. "I'm not sure how or why, but I'm pretty sure this is Anko's doing. Quite possibly her plan all along."
Kurenai slowly got back up, dusted herself off, and considered further. "Odd. This usually only happens on Mondays."
"So, my name is Yuri. Dark Elf. This is Himari. Catgirl."
The catgirl bowed. "It is a pleasure to meet you, de gozaru."
"You know, I really expected Kakashi-sensei to show up by now," said Naruto.
