Pass No Jutsu
Fay didn't really pay attention to Kaka's explanation. It was something the group needed to hear, but it was annoying the first time around. And by first time, Fay meant when she watched the anime. She came from another reality after all. She theorized that every world, every reality, every universe, has a story counterpart. Be it music, a game, or a book, everyone's story was told in a different reality from their own. Speaking of story, Fay managed to pull out a book and started reading. She stopped however, when she felt the atmosphere change drastically. Putting her book away, Fay looked down at everyone and blinked. Kakashi was by the memorial stone and the kids looked like they just found out what it was. Kaka then turned back to the group and let out a sigh. He was giving them another chance. After lunch, they would get another shot at swiping some bells. He then went on to explain that if anyone were to give Naruto food, they would be disqualified.
Everyone but Naru was handed a bento and Fay waved to Kaka as he walked off. The moment he was out of sight, Fay let out a sigh and opened the box. Wrinkling her nose, Fay shot to her feet and looked at Naru was a sickeningly sweet smile.
"Naru-chu~ Open up!"
"Fay-san! You can't! You'll get dis-"
"Oh hush~ Naru eat your food!"
"But Fay-san! No! I won't eat it! You want to be a ninja too right? I can't let you-"
"Eat it now or I swear you will never get to eat again."
Giving off a horrifying aura, Fay shoved her food into Naru's mouth. The blonde quickly accepted his fate. He didn't want to piss off Fay and frankly, he was starving. So before anyone else could even say anything, Fay was feeding Naru. They got halfway through her bento when duckass spoke up. Fay's eyes twitched as he made his presence known.
"You need to eat too Fay-kun. I refuse to be weighed down because you gave that idiot all your lunch. We don't need weak members."
"You're worried about me?! Oh Sauske-chan! Don't. That's idiotic. Save your worry for these two..."
"But Fay-san! You have to eat too! You didn't eat breakfast either so-"
"Nope. I wasn't going to eat lunch anyway. I'd rather Naru eat this than have me just throw it away. That would be a waste of food. Might as well give it to someone that will make use of it. Right?"
As Fay explained this, she managed to finished feeding Naruto her food. But even he looked at her with doubt. As everyone just stared at Fay, She quickly jumped to "safety" atop the log Naru was tied to. Suddenly, the group was surrounded by smoke as Kaka appeared. He seemed furious. Everyone freaked out as Kaka-baka asked if they were ready to face the consequences of disobeying the rules. He also asked for any last words.
"Oh oh! I do~ Thanks!"
But no one really listened to Fay's words as Naru and the group tried to defend themselves. They said they were a team, so in the end, Kaka simply told everyone they passed. Fay let out a cheer and did a little dance in her seat while everyone soaked in this information. They were shocked to say the least. But Fay wasn't quite done yet. Watching Kaka carefully, she waited until the exact moment he spoke his famous quote.
"Those who break rules and codes are branded as garbage... But... Those who don't cherish their friends are garbage worse than that."
As Kakashi spoke these words, Fay recited them perfectly. They spoke at the same exact time, making Kaka look over at Fay in curiosity. Waving her hand in front of her face casually, Fay blatantly avoided eye contact with the man. Everyone cheered and Kaka said they could all go home. The others walked off, leaving Fay behind with a tied up Naruto. Looking over to him with a smile, Fay cut him loose from the log and helped him stand up.
"I told ya we would pass! Let's go, the sun is bothering me."
With a final smile and wave, Fay sped off to her cottage. Slowing down, she stood outside her home and put her hands on her hips. Suddenly, a shadow appeared from the bushes and charged at her. Fay didn't even move but simply looked over her shoulder with a odd smile.
"Kakashi-sensei. To what do I owe the pleasure? Would you like to come inside? The sun is awfully bright today and it's rather uncomfortable."
Kakashi stood only a few feet away from Fay, his hands in his pockets. He watched the girl with narrowed eyes but nodded to her invitation. The two made their way inside and Fay let out a yawn.
"Make yurself at home."
Kakashi looked around the house seemingly uninterested. But Fay knew he was taking notice of everything. Fay sat down on a plush chair, leaving the couch open for the silver haired ninja. Kakashi also sat down and looked around the room lazily.
"Well, ask away. I'm no good with small talk and I'd rather not be sitting here all day. You're also welcome to check out the rest of the house if you're so inclined."
Kakashi turned his gaze over to Fay, his eyes becoming serious.
"Just who are you Fay? You can't be a simple genin. If you are an enemy, then I won't-"
"It's fine Kakashi. And no, I'm no simple genin. I'm an amazing genin, loyal to the leaf village. The Hokage knows exactly who I am and even put in the papers for me joining the academy himself. You can ask him if you so feel the need."
"Is that so? I have a few other questions pertaining to you."
"Shoot~"
"How did you know what I was going to say? Can you read minds? See the future?"
"Hahaha! Pass~ Next question!"
"Fay-"
"I won't answer that. I know things. I know more than any single being should ever be allowed to know. The Hokage knows about this too. He also knows better than to ask questions that could destroy reality. So again, PASS~"
"Uh... Okay... Well then, Why didn't you eat your lunch?"
"Oh, that? I don't eat. Or There's a reason my kitchen is practically empty~"
"You don't eat? Anything!? How are you alive then? That's unhealthy for yo-"
"Well, I can consume sweets... but they don't actually give me energy or anything. As for what I truly eat, you'd rather not know in all honesty. So I do "eat"... just not anything you would consider food. Answer your question?"
"Something I wouldn't consider food? What does that mean? I'd much rather know then guess. It would help me sleep at night knowing you don't eat rocks or something."
"Haha~ I eat blood. I suppose I can also eat chakra, but blood tastes better~ I don't kill my meals though, unless necessary, so don't worry about that. Now that I told you, I'd very much appreciate if you don't force me to eat human food with the others. Even if it's to keep up appearances, I refuse to eat. Also, if they ask questions, do what you normally do and avoid the topic. Of course, I'd owe you a favor for this. Can we come to an agreement?"
Kakashi looked at Fay with wide eyes. Shock was obvious even on his masked face. Giving the man a few moments to take everything in, Fay leaned back in her chair and smiled. After calming down a bit, Kakashi looked to Fay.
"I won't tell anyone, nor will I force you to eat. I'll save that favor for later though. What will you do when the others find out though?"
"Eh, erase their memories? Or roll with it. Whichever is easier at the time."
