“Who are you? And what are doing in our training spot?” asked Sakura, frowning at them. Lucy raised an eye at her as if to say `who do you think you are?'
“Don't worry about them Sakura-chan, I met them at the reman shop yesterday.” Naruto said, smiling at Maddie, who grinned back at him and the others.
“Still…” muttered Sakura, as Naruto and Sasuke wandered over to the bridge. Maddie gave them a smile and a wave as they came over. Naruto grinned back, Sakura half smiled half grimmest as she sat herself on the railings next to Emily and Sasuke just did his classic.
“Hn.”
“I told you I'd see you round.” winked Naruto as he went and stood next to Maddie, who laughed. Emily smiled at Sakura and Sasuke and put on her `little miss. Clueless act'.
“Well we've already met Naruto, so who are you guys?” she asked politely. Sakura uneasy look vanished and was replaced by a pretty smile.
“I'm Haruno Sakura and that's Uchiha Sasuke.” She pointed to Sasuke who just gave a nod of response. Emily smiled at him all the same.
“Well I'm Emily, that's Maddie and this is Lucy.” She said gesturing towards Maddie and Lucy who were talking to Naruto. Sasuke folded his arms across his chest and leaned back on the rails.
“Kind of strange names don't you think?” he said in monotone, not looking at her. Emily narrowed her piercing turquoise eyes at him.
“Where we come from, the name `Sasuke' is considered a `kind of strange name' as you would say.” she said coolly back at him. He threw her one of his classic death glares, and to his slight surprise, she threw him one right back.
“So where exactly do you come from anyway? Planet weirds-ville no doubt.” smirked Sasuke before Sakura could even open her mouth to place another question. Emily gave him a nasty look, sliding off the railings and standing right in front of him, placing her hands on her slender hips (I'm not trying to be vain here, I'm not really a stick insect, but I'm not fat either).
“Even if I was, I certainly would stoop to telling someone as rude and obnoxious as you.” She sneered, giving him a short hard poke in the chest with her index finger.
Emily had always liked Sasuke when she had watched the Naruto series, but now that she had met him, she wasn't so sure. Sasuke's smirk widened. The two fighting teenagers had finally managed to gain the attention of Naruto, Lucy and Maddie.
“You seem fairly confident for someone of your level.” he jeered. Emily smirked back at him.
“And what makes you think I'm weak Mr. Unchiha? I have powers that you can never even hope to have.”
Sasuke laughed out loud.
“And what makes you think that, Miss. Emily?” he mocked. To his surprise she smiled sweetly at him and leaned forwards so he could feel her warm breath on his face.
“I know more about you guys than you could possibly guess. I'd just watch it.” she breathed, making the hairs on the back of the Unchiha's neck stand up.
“Emi, that's enough, we don't want to frighten them.” Said Lucy to Emily in calm, cool French. Naruto and Sakura gave her a confused looks. Emily looked at her friend and stood up strait again.
“I was simply giving him a lesson on not being an obnoxious bastard. That was all.” She replied in French, shrugging her shoulders.
Suddenly Sakura leaped up from where she was sitting and glared over at the trees from where she came.
“Kakashi-sensei! You're late, again!” she yelled. Emily and Maddie looked around at the trees.
Kakashi had just appeared from out of the forest.
“Sorry guys, a black cat crossed my path so…” but her stopped when he saw the looks the whole of Team 7 were giving him, “oh, why do I bother?”
He wandered over to the bridge just as Emily and the other two walked over to meet him.
“I'm guessing that you three are Madeleine, Lucy and Emily?” he said to Lucy who was at the front. She nodded.
“I'm Lucy and this is Emily and Maddie.”
Kakashi looked up at his team who were still standing on the bridge, and out of ear shot.
“Tell me, what powers have you learned to use so far? Tunsade informed me of what you guys are up to.” he said quietly. Maddie was the one to speak next.
“We all have our ninja abilities now, but we still have to gain our element powers.” She said seriously, which was very unusual for Maddie. She was the one who usual was always getting in and out of trouble.
“I see.” smiled Kakashi, “well then, since you guys seem quite keen to get training; why don't we have a little test between my team and you guys?” he said happily. A wide grin spread across Maddie's face, a smirk over Emily's and Lucy just shrugged.
“Great! Hey my ninja wannabe's! Get over here! We're going to have a little competition.”
Naruto gave a whoop of excitement and came running over. Every one except Naruto himself sweat dropped.
“This is gunna take some getting used to.” sighed Lucy, Maddie and Emily all at once.

“Ok guys, this is just to find out what you have learned on your own so far.” explained Kakashi to the three girls and his team, “your objective is to get your opponent into a situation where they cant move or they cant risk moving. Only a few rules, you cant kill your opponent, you can't critically injure them or anything that may permanently damage them.”
Sasuke was glaring at Emily and she was glaring back at him. Kakashi sighed but went on.
“Let's see, I think Naruto and Maddie should combat each other.”
Maddie gave Naruto a mock threatening look and they both laughed.
“Um, Lucy and Sakura.” (Sakura is much stronger in this than normal)
Lucy gave Sakura a sportsman like smile and she returned it.
“And that just leave Emily and Sasuke.” smirked Kakashi. Emily threw him a filthy look and looked over at Sasuke. He gave her an evil look and she smirked.
“This is going to be fun.” she thought as Kakashi backed away from the six young ninjas.
“Take your stances.” he said. Maddie got herself ready to time skip as Naruto took a typical shinobi pose. Lucy concentrated her mind on a large pile of stones a few feet behind Sakura, and smiled as Sakura looked in confusion at her relaxed composure.
Sasuke had taken the same position as Naruto a few meters away from his opponent. Emily on the other hand, had whipped her kunai out of its holster, twirled it elegantly round her finger and snapped it to the ready, but she still looked unusually calm and collected.
“Begin.” said Kakashi calmly, just as Lucy's mind clasped around at least five large stones on the ground behind Sakura. Maddie took a running start and time twisted ever now and then to make it appear to Naruto as if she was moving at an unusual high speed, even for a ninja.
The second Kakashi had said `begin'; Emily had separated her molecules so fast that it had looked to Sasuke and Kakashi that she had evaporated into thin air, literally. A moment of great satisfaction came over Emily as she looked down at Sasuke from above, for once; he looked completely lost for words.
Emily let out a ghost like giggle that Sasuke heard and tried desperately to follow, which just made Emily laugh more.
“I warned you about what powers I had.” she whispered in his ear. Fast as lightning, Sasuke whirled around and took a swipe at the air with his kunai. Since Emily had separated her molecules completely by now, the kunai did nothing but glide right through her.
Emily let out another phantom like laugh and materialized just enough to appear like a ghost right behind him. She smirked at Kakashi who was watching her.
“Sasuke.” she breathed maliciously in his ear, “See if you can find me using your mind.” she giggled.
Over with Maddie and Naruto, Maddie was trying one of her newest tricks. She would slow down time for everyone else and then she would move at normal speed, so it looked to Naruto who was fighting her that she was moving at the speed of sound. She was having even more fun with freezing time completely for a few second and then running to another spot (the idea being that it looks as if she teleported there).
Sakura on the other hand was having a really hard time handling Lucy's new power. Sakura kept trying to take swipes at Lucy with her kunai, but Lucy would either dodge them easily or she would throw something heavy at Sakura using her mind.
“No, I'm not there either.” laughed Emily as Sasuke took another blind swipe at thin air.
“There's no way I can even find her this way, let alone catch her off guard.” he thought as he looked carefully around for even a slight give away of her presents. Suddenly he heard something behind him.
He spun around to see Emily quickly materialize standing on the ground just a few feet away from him.
“You know its going to take a lot more than just blind swipes at mid air to find me.” she smiled. Sasuke gave her an evil smirk before shooting forwards and giving her a good hard kick in the stomach. Emily was hurled across the clearing and slammed into a tree trunk on the other side. Before Emily could even get up again, Sasuke had thrown three shuriken at her.
Emily crossed her arms up in front of herself, but to her surprise, just as the shuriken were coming closer; a strong wind picked up all around her and hurled the star shaped blades back to their owner who dodged them just in time.
Emily looked down at her hands, and it clicked. She had got her element power, and it was control over the air and wind (she's like an air bender from the Avatar). A large grin spread over her face as she got up again.
Sasuke once again looked utterly stunned, but he didn't have time to wonder about what had happened before Emily shot a strong air gust at him with her hands, blowing him clean off his feet and onto the ground.
“Wow, I feel just like Aang from the Avatar.” smiled Emily as she formed an air ball in her hands and hurled it at Sasuke, sending him flying into a tree on the other side of the clearing. Quick as the speed of sound, Emily divided her molecules and flew over to where Sasuke was leaning against a tree clutching his lower torso. Emily shot her transparent hand out as it became visible again, and pinned Sasuke to the tree as the rest of her body appeared. A slight smile crossed her face as Sasuke felt the kunai in her left hand brush the skin on his stomach, the air blast she sent at him had ripped part of his shirt, revealing his strong torso. Sasuke would have rather eaten dirt than admit it, but she had caught him completely off guard.
“I win.” she grinned, keeping Sasuke pinned to the tree.

Mean while, over with Maddie and Naruto:
Naruto had just sent a kunai flying at Maddie's head, when she slowed down time and dodged to the side and revived time again, but not before she reached up and grabbed the kunai out of the air.
“Damn! This girl is impossible!” thought Naruto as he tried to get his breath back. He looked up at Maddie and was stunned to see that she wasn't even breaking a sweat, let alone getting tired. Maddie gave him a little laugh and a smile. He smirked back at her and used his shadow replication technique, making at least ten clones of himself.
Maddie readied herself, concentrated, and then slowed down time to a crawl. She flipped the kunai over in her hand and quickly ran past every slow moving copy of Naruto, giving each of them a swipe with the kunai. Once all the clones of Naruto had received a swipe from Maddie she restored time, and each of them vanished with a puff of smoke. Naruto was just about to use another technique, but before he could even blink, Maddie had tripped him up by swinging her leg underneath him, sending him onto his stomach on the ground. Maddie smirked and then quickly seated herself cross-legged on Naruto's back to keep him from getting up, holding her kunai to the back of his head.
“I do believe I've beaten you Mr. Uzumaki.” she laughed, and Naruto couldn't help but smile too.

With Lucy and Sakura:
Sakura was barely keeping up with Lucy's attacks as she hurled rocks and tree branches in Sakura direction. Lucy didn't really want to hurt Sakura, but the only way she could get Sakura to drop her guard even for a second was to use her confusing power on her.
Lucy had discovered that she couldn't just moving things with her mind, but she could also delve into Sakura's mind and take complete control of her as well (a bit like Ino's mind transfer technique, but she doesn't have to leave her body).
Lucy focused her eyes on Sakura and shot her mind forwards. The second Lucy entered Sakura's mind, she began to feel slightly dizzy, but she ignored in and pushed deeper into the pink haired girl's thoughts.
“I want you to kneel down to the ground.” Lucy's hypnotic voice echoed in Sakura's brain. A half confused, half dozy look washed over Sakura's face as Lucy began delving deeper into her mind.
“You are going to sit down, Haruno Sakura.”
Sakura slowly kneeled down on the grass of the clearing, still staring into Lucy's amber eyes like she was looking at the full moon.
“Now I want you to take your kunai and hold it to your neck.”
Sakura took the kunai that she had in her right hand and held it to her throat. Lucy gave into a smirk and released Sakura from her mind's grip.
Sakura blinked and then before she could do anything else, Lucy had shot around behind her and pushed the kunai up to her throat.
“You loose.” Lucy smiled, Sakura blinked. Lucy had got the better of her.

Two hours later:
“You can do what?!!!!!” screamed Maddie and Lucy together. Emily grinned, and quickly formed an air ball in her hands. Her two best friends, Team 7 and Kakashi watched as she spun the ball around in her hands and then jumped on top, balancing on her toes. The second she was on the ball, she zipped up and down the forest path that they where all walking on at a high speed, laughing with enjoyment.
“Hey! Emily, you're an Air Bender!!!!!” screamed Maddie running forwards as her best friend jumped off her air scooter (I got most of the names from the Avatar) and wrapped her in a tight bear hug. Sakura couldn't help but smile. These three girls seemed almost like sisters to each other and to people around them. When Lucy had beaten Sakura in their fight, Lucy hadn't been snobbish or boastful about it at all. She had even complemented Sakura on some of her techniques. Naruto and Maddie had been getting along wonderfully since the beginning, so there was no real worry there.
It was Sasuke that Sakura was concerned about. Once Emily had beaten him, he seemed to go a lot quieter the whole morning; he didn't even call Naruto a baka when he tripped over a twig on the way to the reman shop.
For the girls, it had turned out that Kakashi was going to be their sensei for now along with Team 7. Maddie and the others had been overjoyed at the idea of having Kakashi as their sensei, so had Sakura and Naruto, but Sasuke just looked uneasy about the thought.
They were all walking back towards the village for some reman while watching Emily practicing her new `Air Bending' power (I swear to God blueyabc123, that I didn't copy your idea!!! Please don't kill me!!!).
Maddie and Sakura were having a good laugh as Emily used the air scooter to zoom around the group as the walked farther down the path.
A little way away from the village, Maddie, Naruto and Lucy had managed to get themselves into a steaming argument with their new sensei, something to do with turnips and the color purple. Emily looked over her shoulder at Sasuke, we was walking quite a long way behind them with his hands in his pockets.
Emily glanced at her four squabbling companions to make sure she wouldn't be noticed if she dropped back a little. She slowed down her pace a bit until she was walking next to Sasuke. He didn't bother to look at up at her as she looked down at his shadowed face.
“I'm sorry for being such a cow this morning.” said Emily truthfully. Sasuke kept looking down at the ground as they walked.
“Are you even going to look at me?” she asked gently. Sasuke shrugged but then looked sideways at her. She smiled at him.
“I really am sorry. I just don't like people being rude to me on first meeting.” she said nicely. Sasuke looked a little confused, he wanted to talk back to her, but that would be going against his number one rule: Never trust anyone.
Emily smiled at him again and put a hand on his shoulder. Sasuke gave her distrustful look.
“You're probably just another fan-girl intent on getting my attention.” he scowled. Emily raised an eyebrow at him and took her hand off this shoulder.
“For a start; if I was a fan-girl I would be calling you `Sasuke-kun instead of Sasuke. Second; if I was a fan-girl, then why did I totally kick your butt in that battle?” Sasuke turned slightly pink at this point, “And third; if I was a fan-girl, why aren't I asking you to go on a date with me every three seconds?” she finished. Sasuke stared at her; she was pretty smart for someone of her age.
“Then why do you know so much about me?” he asked back. She looked down at the ground and shook her head.
“Very long story. But let's just say, I kinda know how you feel.” she said sadly. Sasuke gave her questioning look and she sighed.
“How would you know how I feel?” he hissed. She didn't look up; her hair was shadowing her eyes from view.
“I can only tell you part of it,” she breathed, “Me, Maddie and Lucy got transported here and we don't know how to get back. I may never see my family again…” she stopped and took a deep breath, “I know it's not the same as having your parents killed by your own brother, but it is still painful to think about.”
“H-how did you know that?” said Sasuke staring at her. She looked at him; her dark blue eyes were watering slightly, like she was forcing herself not to cry. She smiled.
“I told you I know a lot about you guys.” she said. Sasuke still looked confused, Emily laughed.
“I tell you what, if I don't make a complete idiot of you again, will you be nice-ish to us from now on?” she offered. Sasuke paused then half smiled and nodded. Emily grinned and held out her little finger.
“Truce?” she said.
“What?” asked Sasuke, looking puzzled. Emily just laughed.
“It's just a gesture from where I come from. You're meant to do the same. It means peace.” She said happily. Sasuke raised an eye brow at her, but did as she asked anyway. The second Sasuke linked his little finger with hers she tightened its grip and twisted his finger until both of their finger joints clicked. Sasuke drew his hand away.
“What was that about?” he asked looking offended. Emily just shrugged.
“It's just what we do to seal the deal.” she said as if it was the most obvious thing in the world. Sasuke rolled his eyes and she laughed and grinned at him.
“You are the strangest person I have ever met.” he sort of smiled (you know how Sasuke is). She laughed again.
“I know. But seriously, you will be nicer now wont you?”
Sasuke smirked.
“Maybe.”
Emily narrowed her eyes at him. And for the first time, Emily saw him laugh like a normal teenager.
“Yeah I will.”
She smiled.
“Good.”
 
What fun. I loved writing this so please tell me what you think.
