Orochimaru's POV

I woke up with a groan feeling my nose clogged up with snot. I was feeling worse than yesterday. I turned to face my clock and realized that I was now 15 minutes late for training.

I was going to get up but was way too exhausted to get up and get ready. So decided to go back to sleep. I was going to have to miss training today.

Right when I was about to go back to sleep. I heard a knock at my front door.

'Ugh who at my door,' I thought trying to get the strength I need to get out of bed.

**

Once I got the strength I needed. I began making my way downstairs to go open the door.

I could feel my nose quivering, and I could vaguely see my nostrils flaring up. Knowing what was going to happen, I sniffled, bringing up one of my hands to rub my nose. But that didn't really work, since I could still feel that annoying itch in my nose. I kept rubbing my nose, trying to stop it from itching so much, but it just wasn't working.

"Aaah..." My breath started to hitch. By this point, it had become clear that I just couldn't hold this sneeze back, and I had to brace myself for it. My hand slipped away from my nose as I tilted my neck slightly back. "Aaaaaaaah..." I tilted it farther back as my nostrils kept growing and shrinking, over and over. Every gasp I took seemed to tickle my nose even more. "AaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAH...!"

After this final gasp, there was a long pause, with no release at first. I was almost convinced that the sneeze was gone. I sniffed thinking the sneeze was and was about to open the door was I made it to the door. Just as I was about to open it the tickle in my nose came back, and I had no choice but to sneeze.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

I shot my neck forwards as I released the sneeze. I could feel the snot escaping from my nostrils as I did so. But it wasn't enough relief for my poor nose. It just continued to itch, and I had to sneeze again. Faster than I could even sniffle, I took another inhale, throwing my neck backward.

"AaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH-CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

Even more, snot came out of my nose. So I went to the bathroom to blow my nose. After blowing my nose. I was about to go and answer the door but I felt another sneeze coming.

"Aaaaaah, AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-- CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!"

These two sneezes were even worse and made even more snot come out my nose. Finally, I was done sneezing for now. So I then want back to the door and went to open it.

When I opened the door. I saw Tsunade standing outside.

"Hi Tsunade," I said.

"Hey Orochi," She said.

"What brings you here?" I said trying to hold back a cough. Not wanting Tsunade to know I was sick.

"Sarutobi-sensei sent me to come and get you. You're late for training," She replied.

I was about to reply but felt another sneeze coming.

Aaaah... Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh..." I tilted my neck back slightly, rubbing my nose hoping to stop the sneeze, but it was too late to stop my sneeze from coming. "AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"

I released a huge amount of spit from my mouth and an equally big amount of snot from my nose into my arm. When I was done letting the sneeze out, my finger snapped to my nostrils as I rubbed them, sniffling a few times. My nose was started to feel very running.

"Wow bless you," Tsunade said. "You don't look so good."

"I'm fine just had a tickle in my nose," I replied.

"You sure because your nose is pretty red and running." She said. "You know what I will just tell Sarutobi-sensei your sick. Then I'm coming back to take care of you."

"No *cough* need I will be fine here by myself just a little tired not *cough*sick," I replied.

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"

"AAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"

I double over and released two loud messy sneezes into my arm.

"Oh yeah then why the coughing and sneezing?" She asked raising an eyebrow.

"Okay so maybe I'm a little sick. Anyway, I going to lay back down to tired to make me anything to eat," I muttered.

"I will make you some soup once I get back." She replied.

**

I nodded and went back upstairs to my room to go to bed. I let out a groan and got back into my bed and got ready to take a nice long nap.

"Aaaaaah, AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-- CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
Aaaaaah, AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-- CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

I then released three loud messy sneezes into my bedsheets since I was too tired to grab tissues, and coughed a few times.

"Aaaaaah, AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-- CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Aaaaaah, AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-- CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!

AAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH-CHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!"

I then released 3 loud messy sneezes into my bedsheets again making then get even more soaked with snot.

'This is what I get for sleeping out in the rain. I now have a stupid cold and probably running a fever,' I thought while difting off to sleep. While waiting for Tsunade to get back.
