How did I get to be a sensei all of a sudden??

Kakashi smiled, "A little more chakra should do. Don't worry if you don't get it the first time-" His grin widened, "-Even Sasuke had to work hard to do this..."

Zumi grinned and nodded slightly, starting again. This time, she could feel her feet almost meld with the wood, and she could walk up the trunk more confidently. "YUS!!" She yelled, pumping her fists up (or down?) in the air, now upside-down on the branch.

((Reminds me of a fashion show, or something. "Now she could walk. . .more confidently"... xD))

Kakashi nodded, "Very well done Zumi! You pick it up quicker than most people." He jumped out of the tree and took a large backpack, haanding it to her, "Now, you must do this, carrygin the backpack. It will increase your stamina and strength...You can est first of course..."

The pale-haired girl grinned and hefted the backpack onto her back, "Later~" She began her long climb up to the top of the tree.

Minoushje nodded her head in approvement as she shielded her eyes from the sun.
"She's good isn't she?"

She turned to look at Kakashi.
"Ne, Kakashi-senpai... you know I didn't mean anything bad with that comment, right?" She asked hesitantly, glad to see he started smiling. "But now I'm wondering I thought you were getting pretty close with Yugao-senpai?"

((Was Hayate's lover... http://naruto.wikia.com/wiki/Yugao_Uzuki ))

Kakashi looked down and shrugged, "She is still pretty broken up about Hayate after all this time, not getting her revenge yet-" He hesitated, "-But she and I have been talking a lot, yes..."

"They say time heals all wounds... and a shoulder to cry on can do miracles too."

"We're going to have to think of something else to let her do... this is a bit too easy for her." Minoushje says as she looks up at Zumi.

Zumi grabbed the top branch of the massive oak and flung herself at another, swinging down through the foliage till she was back on the ground. "Another challenge...?" She cocked her head and glanced from Kakashi to Minoushje.

Kakashi thought about what Minoushje said and nodded, "I guess that's true." He said quietly.

He nodded at Zumi, "Another challenge...Hm. We could always do the bell-test...But we need at least two people for that..." He trailed off, trying to think of another suitable challenge for Zumi.

"If we can find someone who's willing to join... chuunin or lower in rank... that would solve the problem." Minoushje says while shrugging her shoulders. "But for now..."

Minoushje took a scroll from her pouch and rolled it open on the floor.
"I promised to help you with your medical training so..."
She bit her thumb and summonned a small white bunny.
"Sorry you have to go through this again..." She mumbled as she killed the bunny.
"Zumi-chan, this is also a way to focus on your chakra... too little and she won't come back to life... too much and, well, she won't be a bunny anymore..." Minoushje said as she sweatdropped a bit.

"Mhm..." Zumi knelt down and pressed her hands against the lifeless rabbit gently, closing her eyes. She felt the chakra well in her heart nearly overflow, and she pulled it into her hands almost instinctively, letting it flow freely into the rabbit.

The flow was quite restrained, but over time, she let it grow steady. "Che," she breathed, eyebrows furrowed and lips pursed in concentration. She could feel the rabbit filling up with her healing chakra and withdrew as soon as she saw fit.

Zumi eyed the rabbit and kept a hand on its still body. Did it work....?

The rabbit's back leg twitched a bit but besides that it remained still.
Minoushje could see that Zumi really was a natural when it came to being a medical-nin.

"It's not that simply, Zumi-chan... you can't just use your chakra on the rabbit without thinking where the chakra must go. First you must find where the problem is and then guide your chakra to that specific place... if there are multiple injuries you go from the worst to the least critical. Give it another try." Minoushje encouraged.

"Oh, I get it!" She pressed her fingers into the rabbit's soft fur, realizing that its neck was broken. She furrowed her brow once more and drew chakra from the well in her chest, moving her fingers up and down the broken spine. She could feel the bone strengthening and regrowing, and felt the trachea healing.

She also noticed that its paw was hurt and healed that too, watching the rabbit for life signs.

Minoushje smiled when the rabbit started moving and hopped towards her.
"Very good, Zumi-chan." Minoushje praised as she took the rabbit in her arms. "You really are a natural."

"Yes!" Zumi glowed and a happy dance full of win ensued.

Kakashi had leaned against a tree and nodded, impressed, "You certainly are a natural when it comes to medical things Zumi." He looked at Minoushje, "Is there anything else that would help her?"

"I really don't know..." Minoushje said. "I can train her as far as her medical skills but I suck when it comes to physical training. And besides she learns the most by actually experiencing it in real life. You should know that with Naruto in your team."

Kakashi rolled his eyes slightly, "Don't I? The higher missions we went on were mainly because of him."

"It's just an idea but maybe Zumi could train along with your team? I think Roy will kill me if I allow her to go on missions... but training would be good for her and maybe after that she's ready to take Hidden Site's ranking exam... how does that sound to you, Zumi-chan?"

"Sounds interesting..." Zumi blinked, "That means Sakura and Naruto, of course.... but... Sasuke, too?"

Sakura she knew like an older sister, and she'd glimpsed Naruto around town before... though she was a little nervous to meet Roy's boyfriend; he sounded quite.... intimidating, for a lack of better words.

Kakashi nodded slowly, "I think that would be good, Sakura can teach her some different medical teqhniques, Naruto can help with her stamina...and Sasuke with everything else."

"Okay!" She smiled at the two adults, "Should I go... somewhere to meet them, then?"
