This is the first fan fiction I've ever written, and those who read it on forums. really liked it. Since it's originally a forum fan fiction, the chapters are short, 15000 to 20000 characters. There is one chapter that's longer then that, but that's the usual length.

The story is two years after the current time in the manga, and Naruto gets in charge of a team of Genins. I hope you'll enjoy it. If you later want to see pictures of my OC's you have to visit my DA account. There aren't any yet, the scanner won't work. dead Oh well. Enjoy it! I'll put up the next chapter after some previews.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Chapter 1 "He's our sensei?"

Konohamaru sat at the desk with a bored look on his face. Why did I choose to work at the academy? He asked himself and gave up a deep sigh when a brownhaired girl came in through the door. He yawned before he spoke.

"Mizoki Shora, let's see it then."

Shora looked at him with a pissed look. Geez, he's not interested at all. Why is he working with this if he doesn't like it, She thought before she made the handseals. With a rather bored voice she said:

"Bunshin no jutsu!" And five illusions of her appeared.

And this is the graduation exam? Everyone will pass, they should make up something else. Without wating for an answer she went to the front of the desk and grabbed a foreheadprotector and went out of the door. She walked past the one who was going to go in after her, this years number one failure ninja, Yameto Kino. This exam is so simple, even someone like him will pass it, She thought and pushed him in the side.

"Oh, sorry. I didn't see you," she said with a sarcastic tone.

Kino pointed the finger towards her from behind before he went through the door. Shora tied the foreheadprotector around her arm as she sat down at the desk to wait for the exam to end.

When fifteen minutes had passed the last student and Konohamaru came in through the classroom door.

"Everyone has passed. The explanatory meeting will be tomorrow. You can go home for now," Konohamaru said.

I'm definitely not teaching next year, he thought as everyone walked out.

Next day

"Now you are all Genins..." Konohamaru began, but got interrupted when someone opened to door.

Everyone turned there faces around to see who it was. In the doorway, stood Kino, heavely breathing.

"Sorry... I'm... Late," he said between his gasping.

What a looser, Shora thought, laughing inside. Konohamaru cleared his throath and tried not to show how annoyed he was.

"As I said, you are all Genins. You will be divided into teams of three..." And he got interrupted again, this time by Shora.

"WHAT?" She yelled as she stood up. "Why is that necessery? I'm just fine on my own."

Konohamaru gave up a sigh. This is why I won't teach next year.

"That's just how it is," Konohamaru answered, "If your not happy with it, you are free to leave your foreheadprotector here and leave. Now if I may continue."

His left eyebrow was starting to twitch from frustration. Shora muttered but sat down in silence.

"Anyone else has something against this?" Konohamaru asked and everyone shook there heads. "Good! You will then be introduced to a jounin teacher who will lead you in missions and such. I will now tell you the teames. Team 1..."

Kino glanced at Shora. I'm fine with anyone, as long as it's not her. That just wouldn't work, he thought and looked away when Shora turned her eyes on him.

As long as I'm not with that looser, Im fine, she thought and narrowed her eyes.

"Team 4, Mizoki Shora, Yameto Kino," Konohamaru said, which was followed by two frustrated sounds from both Shora and Kino, "and Zomaku Onaru."

When Onaru heard his name he glanced up from his state between sleep and conscious. Don't tell me I'm with that slug, He thought and looked at Shora, who didn't look happy to be with him either.

TWO complete losers? What's gonna happen to me? She thought and dragged her hand through the hair; something she did when she gets frustrated.

"Hey, Sensei!" Kino shouted.

Konohamaru gave him a questioning look. Kino noticed it and continued:

"Why do I have to be with her? Can't I be placed somewhere else?" Konohamaru was getting even more annoyed by this stupid question.

"We're trying to even out the odds in the teams," he said with an uninterested voice. "Shora is the best in this class, and you, are dead last!" Kino's eyes narrowed as everyone laughed, except Shora and Onaru.

----------------------------

Outside the window stood Uzumaki Naruto, leaning against the wall, with a satisfied grin on his face.

This reminds me of something, he thought when he heard the conversation and the frustration from Shora and Kino. No wonder Tsunade-Obaa-chan put me in charge of them, He laughed a little as he walked away.

----------------------------

Shora glanced out the window. She thought she had seen someone there, but maybe it was just her eyes playing tricks on her.

"Now that all the teames have been stated," Konohamaru said and interrupted her thoughts, "we're going to take a break. Get some lunch and be back here in an hour. I'll introduce the jounin teachers then."

Kino went to Onaru.

"Hey, what do you say we take and eat together," he said. "Now that we're a team and all."

"Yeah, sure," Onaru answered. "As long as we don't..." He jerked his head towards Shora, followed by a nod from Kino.

Shora noticed this, but she didn't bother. She had no intention of eating with them anyway. She jumped out through the window to go and get some ramen, while Kino and Onaru went through the door.

When Shora got the Ichiraku Ramen she saw someone sitting there; a teenage boy with blond here and blue eyes. As she sat down and looked at his face she stated that He must be around 18 or something, he doesn't look that old.

The boy glanced at her. He was wearing a normal Jounin outfit, but his face gave her an impression that he was stupid. Looks like they make just anyone a Jounin these days, she thought and ordered a miso pork ramen. When the young Jounin was done and stood up, she noticed he had whiskers on his cheeks. She also came to the conclusion that they weren't painted. That's odd. What kind of human is born with whiskers? She asked herself, but she didn't bother about that at the moment.

-------------------------

When an hour had passed she sat in the classroom again, together with Kino and Onaru, who she didn't pay much attention to. Konohamaru entered the room.

"Good, everyone is here," he said. "I will now introduce the team leaders. For team 1 we have Hyuuga Neji."

Shora looked at the door. She noticed that Neji didn't seem like much older from the ninja that she saw at Ichiraku's.

"For team 2," Konohamaru continued, "we have Nara Shikamaru."

Another young guy, Shora was getting pretty surprised. How come they put such young Jounins in charge of their teams?

"Team 3, Genma."

Hope that I won't get someone young, I can't trust someone who's not even allowed to drink yet. Please let me get someone Genma's age, Shora prayed with her eyes closed. Kino and Onaru kept there eyes on the door.

"Team 4, Uzumaki Naruto-nii-chan."

Shora looked up, and saw to her fear that it was the guy she saw at Ichiraku's. Kino and Onaru grinned when they saw her frustration.

Don't tell me he's our sensei! It's just getting worse. Naruto smiled when he saw the expression on Shora's face. She drew the fingers through her hair, again.

"You three follow me," he said and pointed towards the window.

-------------------------

Shora rolled her eyes and followed him. Naruto led them to a roof, the same roof that he was on when he first became a Genin.

"How about we get to know eatchother?" Naruto began. "Tell us about yourselves. Your name, likes and dislikes, hobbies and dreams." Shora muttered:

"Tell us a little about yourselves first. That's what you should do right?" Naruto nodded.

"That's right. I can begin. My name is Uzumaki Naruto. I love this village," he said and swept his hand through the air, "I dislike whoever might hurt this village, or anyone from it. My hobbies are basically training, but I have lots of others. My dream... Is to become Hokage, so that I can protect this village and its people. And that's about it. Now, you first." He pointed at Shora. She gave up a sigh.

"My name is Mizoki Shora. What I like is when I get to be alone. I dislike when everyone bothers me. I don't really have any dreams, but I want to prove to my family that I am independent, since my father is so overprotective."

So you want to be independent, Naruto thought. That's going to cause you trouble tomorrow.

"Ok, next," he said and pointed at Kino.

"My name is Yameto Kino. What I like to do is training with my little brother, because I'm the stronger one of us two. I dislike, no, I hate when people look down on me," he glared at Shora. "And my dream is to show everyone that I'm not a looser," this time he also glared on Shora.

So you are trying to get acknowledged, just like I used to

Flashback

"My name is Uzumaki Naruto. I like cup ramen. But I like the Ichiraku Ramen Iruka treated me to more. I dislike the three minutes I have to wait for the water to get warm. My hobbies are to eat and compare cup ramen. And my dream is to become hokage and the greatest ninja ever, so that everyone will acknowledge my power."

End of flashback

Kino noticed that Naruto was smiling and he frowned.

"That's a good dream," he said. "Last one." He looked at Onaru.

Onaru put his elbow on his knee and supported his head in his hand.

"My name is Zomaku Onaru. I don't feel like telling anyone my likes and dislikes. My hobbies are to sit near the river and look at the water. I don't really have a dream; I did this because it seemed interesting." Naruto nodded.

Seems like there's someone mysterious in nearly every team, he thought. He reminds me of Shikamaru a little too. I think I'm gonna like these guys.

"Ok, now that we know each other, I'm gonna tell you what we are gonna do tomorrow. Tomorrow, we are gonna have a survival training."

"A survival training?" Asked Kino. "Why?" Naruto grinned.

"This is going to surprise you guys. The reason behind the training is this. Out of all eleven teams, only three will be allowed to become Genins." He showed three fingers.

"Meaning?" Said Onaru.

"That this training is a test with a dropout rate of 72.3"

"WHAT!" Yelled Kino. "That's not fair!"

"Not fair?" Said Naruto. "You think just anyone can become a Genin? The graduation exam is nothing compared to what you will face tomorrow. Only those able to handle that, are allowed to become Genin. Meet me at Training Ground #4 tomorrow at 5.30 am."

"That early?" Kino was getting more and more frustrated.

Geez, what a waste of time, Onaru thought to himself. Naruto turned around.

"And one other thing. If you don't want to throw up..." Kino stopped in his complaints. Throw up?

"Don't eat breakfast," Naruto said before he vanished, leaving a cloud of something that looked like red smoke behind. Geez, what an annoying guy, Shora thought.
