The Snake's Daughter

-Chunin Exams-

Zabzua set you down on the floor and you looked back at him 

"By Zabzua" you waved while running out, "i hope to see you soon" you yelled- 

You sat up quickly in a sweat, you were asleep...it was a dream but a memory 

You sighed and laid back down looking at the ceiling, 

You looked over seeing the snake in your tank, you probably need to feed him

You got up and fed the snake looking out the window, that dream was one of your old memories 

Ever since you had watched Zabzua die you had dreams about your old memories, as much as you did miss him...he died in peace which your glad that you got to see him once more...

You sighed and got ready for the day, you sat at your table poking your breakfast, you didn't feel like eating, you just had this sad feeling that wouldn't go away

You felt something poke you, it was from your bag on your leg you reached in to pull out a headband....it was Zabzua's 

The headband...you stood up leaving your breakfast and put the headband on display on your side table

Just then you heard a knock on the door, you walked to the door and opened it so see Kakashi 

"Hello Sensei what brings you here" you said 

"well Y/n, i have something to tell you" he said and you nodded 

"Do you want to come in" you asked him 

"that would be nice, it might take a while to explain it" he said entering your apartment 

You sat down and Kakashi sat across from you 

"well Y/n there is a big exam coming up and i need to inform you on a couple things" he said and you nodded 

"is their any big mission today" you asked "that is what i'm here to talk about" Kakashi said and you nodded 

"First this exam is no joke its called the Chunin exams and i am surprised they have decided to start these so early but you Y/n i simply know you have what it takes to get through these but Naruto and Sakura are no where near ready..." he said making you wonder 

"The exams already hmm" you said "but what does that mean for me" you asked 

"well i need you start training now, we both know Naruto s not going to back down, but i know you have some deep power your hiding Y/n , for even Zabzua said you could beat Haku that's something, i need you ready to protect them with your life and their should be no bad guy that should be an old friend of yours i only hope, i'm counting on you Y/n i want you to be ready" Kakashi said making you think

"well Kakashi i feel honored that you would ask me this, I've been waiting for this moment i can gladly tell you that i will do it, i will protect them with my life, does that mean you want me to stay back on the missions and just train" you asked

"yes if you don't mind...i can't have them getting hurt and one more thing...watch out for Naruto for you know about the nine tails and i don't know what triggered the seal but he can be very dangerous when this happens" he said and you nodded

"Okay Sensei, when are these exams" you asked 

"in a week you have some time" he said and you nodded, you heard something and you both looked over to see a crow on your open windowsill 

"oh um give me one second" you said and walked to the window

The crow dropped a note in your hand and you stuffed it in your pocket hoping Kakashi would not see
