Our Chibi Sensei

The eight year old bit his lip hard before lifting his eyes to meet the hokage's. It was an honour, his father would be proud, his brother would be inspired and his mother would worry her own lip, creases on her flawless brow. As much as Itachi would like to turn the hokage down just to ease his mother's fears, he couldn't. So the two would be worrying their lips till blood flowed.

After all, taking on a genin team was quite the task...

"I'll do it." Those three words were all that were needed to be spoken.

Life would never be the same for Izumo, Kotetsu and Iruka. Today they graduated from the academy and would be taken under the wing of a super awesome sensei and become really strong! That is, if they could pass the second test. Truthfully? They weren't all that confident. The three had regulated their own academy scores, hoping to be put on the same team. But despite the trick that deceived their entire class, they had to work extremely hard, leaving no room for further improvement.

It really was a miracle they passed, and they would need another to pass the 'secret' test.

Well, it wasn't so secret to them, especially when all the shinobi gathered in bars to reminisce, spilling secrets left and right. It got rather roudy...

Unfortunately, all the test seemed to be different, and all they could do was stick together and hope for the best.

Meanwhile, Itachi had been asking for advice from his senior comrades, along the way he noticed his soon to be team asking around the local bars which shinobi often frequented.

The eight year old thought to make a unique test, hopefully nobody told the true meaning behind the Hatake test. But still... for those three? It was too easy. And letting them find him in the forest of death had already been used. Apparently it was now forbidden. Maybe a minefield and the Hatake test?

A few days later, the Uchiha family witnessed one Itachi Uchiha surrounded by papers and scrolls, researching more than ever. The reason? Itachi had a genin team to teach.

It really was a shock to Konaha when they found they eight year had taken on a team, but their surprise only increased when they realized who passed his test. After all, how could the Troublesome Three, of all the academy students, be grouped together, and passed together?

Itachi had also been surprised, though less because they somehow managed to pass, and more because of what their files and records said.

After a bit of searching, it really was terribly plain to see the orchestration behind their work. How could none of the instructors see? Their petty grudges born from childish pranks blinded them to the truth of his pupils.

They were fantastic shinobi! During Iruka, Izumo and Kotetsu's time at the academy, they either regulated their marks to make absolute median, or they cheated, maybe way you looked at it, they managed quite a feat.

They passed. And now, he had a team to teach.

A.N.: Hello all, this is my first fic, really it's a bit of an experiment. I doubt it will do to well, but if you see it, if you like it, please send me a message, I may continue.

This is more of a sneakpeak into my head than anything else. The story is still in progress and endure some heavy editing, though never after it is posted. I work on it when I'm bored and have some spare time. Don't expect updates unless they are specifically asked for.

Thank you.
