Me: I suppose I'm going to start typing another Naruto story.
Naruto: Hey if it's a story about me why am I still here?
Me: Well anyway Naruto doesn't belong to me.
Naruto: What happened last time?
Me: It's a long story…
The Beginning
After many tries Naruto and group has finally passed the genin tests. They were told to report back to the academy to be assigned their three man genin teams. They were all told to come back at noon.
Naruto had just walked into the classroom labeled A-3, depressed and with a horrible stomachache. He didn't get his kiss from Sakura, even though she thought he was Sasuke, and he drank sour milk. So he figured this day could only get better after all of that.
Sakura on the other hand almost had her life long dream realized and shot down in a matter of five minutes. At first Sasuke seemed to actually like her. He was even about to kiss her. But then he just ran off, kind of like something Naruto would have done. Then when he came back, he was a cold prick and basically said he hated her. Sakura sighed as she took her usual spot next to Sasuke in the classroom.
Unlike Sakura and Naruto, Sasuke couldn't have been feeling any better. He basically shot down Sakura's dreams of going out with him. (No offense to Sasu/Saku fans, I can't stand them as a couple). Honestly he preferred Ino. She was stronger and more attractive than Sakura. Besides, Sakura was kind of manly. Not like crazy steroid manly that she had a crazy deep voice and muscles. She just was… well indescribable.
Kiba was basically only concerned with whether or not he will be on a team with Hinata. Although she was quiet and shy and he was loud and rash, he thought she was cute and a nice girl. He didn't have to worry about being on a team with anyone he didn't like, since he always had Akamaru with him. The only person he was hoping to be on a team with was Hinata. So he was sitting kind of nervously waiting for Iruka to turn up and announce the teams.
Shino honestly didn't care what team he was on. Since in the end he would be the creepy bug boy, in his mind it was, "What's new?" Shino just stood in the corner of the room talking lowly to his insects. He figured the teams would be horrible planned as usual, so he couldn't even begin to imagine who he would be on a team with for god knows how long. Basically he figured that everyone would be stuck with someone they can't stand just get screwed that way. So he was okay.
Hinata couldn't stop thinking about who would be on her team. Although she honestly hated most of the new genin in the room, she couldn't show it. She had to act like the shy, weak little Hyuuga girl. Most of the girls of the village either liked Sasuke or her cousin Neji, who both didn't have a great personality. Sure Sasuke looked good for a creepily pale anorexic weirdo, but she just didn't see it. Neji, that was obvious, that's her cousin. For the record Hinata Hyuuga isn't an incestuous freak. All the other girls always asked her why she blushed when Naruto was around. But she couldn't tell them that his eyes remind her of the guy she actually likes. A sand ninja, who became a genin a little while ago. So she really didn't care who she was put on a team with.
Shikamaru was half awake half asleep for a while now. After he ate lunch with Ino and Chouji, he left and came back to the classroom. He couldn't stand Ino stalking/spying on Sasuke. It was annoying and well troublesome. So he didn't want to be involved for just incase the Uchiha caught her. Shikamaru figured that the only people he could work with were probably only Ino and Chouji. Since their dads made up that InoShikaCho formation. Pretty damn conceited, but that was their dads for you. Shikamaru was just boredly running through all the possible problem he could have if was paired with anyone else. So those two were the only one he wanted to work with.
Chouji was eat a bag of BBQ flavored chips, while wondering why he pretended to be a gluttonous meat ball. In all honesty he was wondering how many laps around the village he would have to make in order to burn off all the calories he just consumed. This may not be a known fact, but Chouji ran more laps daily than Gai and Lee combined in a week. Worst of all no one knew he was buff and trim. Oh well better off that way. Chouji prefered it that way since he didn't want to be swamed everyday by girls like Sasuke and that blind kid on Lee's team. Plus all his family was fat, so he couldn't be the only skinny muscular guy in his family. The thought of who might be on a team with him didn't cross his mind once.
Ino was jealously watching Sakura talking to Sasuke. She knew that Sasuke hated Sakura, since she was annoying and pushy about her feelings. Ino knew that Sasuke probably didn't like her any more than he does Sakura, but he was still worth a shot. He was hot, strong, and probably the best rookie ninja this year. She knew Sasuke for a long time. From when they kids even. Ino knew Sasuke better than almost all of the other girls in the Konoha. So she just hoped she was on a team with Sasuke that's all.
Finally a brown haired man in his mid-twenties walked in the room. His hair was up in a pony tail, he had scar running across his tanned face, and he wore the standard Leaf uniform. Iruka finally turned up.
"Sorry to keep you guys waiting so long." said Iruka with an apologetic smile. "Everyone take your seats and I will begin to put you all on your teams." He waited for everyone to sit and quiet down.
"Alright starting with team 7. Ino Yamanaka, Sasuke Uchiha, and Shino Aburame." Iruka said as he pointed to a spot for them to go. After they were seated in a different area, Iruka moved on.
"Okay team 8; you are Kiba Inuzuka, Chouji Akimichi, and Sakura Haruno." Iruka said and did the process from before beginning again.
Finally team 10, you are Shikamaru Nara, Hinata Hyuuga, and Naruto Uzumaki." Iruka said as he finished. "Now everyone, I'm going to wait a little bit with you until your teachers turn up, okay?"
After ten minutes a young woman, mid twenties turned up. She had black hair that fell slightly below her shoulders. She wore a loose dress like thing with bandages on her thighs. The most noticeable thing about her was her crimson eyes.
"Okay Team 8, lets go." The woman said in a strict but gentle manner. After that, Kiba, Chouji, and Sakura just followed her out of the classroom.
After another forty-five minute, Iruka said, "Guys, I hate to just leave like this, but I need to give this report to Lord Hokage." Just then Iruka preformed a few hand signs then poofed away in a cloud of smoke.
Naruto was starting to get bored until he heard someone coming; well it was more like running though. Of course this didn't go unnoticed by everyone else. "Hey dobe, go check what's going on." Sasuke said boredly.
"Ugh…fine." Naruto said since he also wanted to know. He opened the door to find a weird dog run by then stop. It turned then ran into classroom A-3.
"AHHHHHHH! Crazy rabid mutt!" shouted Ino as she jumped over behind Shino, who happened to be the closest person to her. The "crazy rabid mutt" was a small pug with a Leaf headband on and that smiley shirt (the blue thing with the white face on it).
"Hey Kakashi, I found Pakkun." said a guy with spiky brown hair with a brown goatee. He had a cigarette hanging between his two fingers. He wore standard uniform with a weird apron thing that was red and white with a symbol on it.
"Asuma…I never lost him." said the guy who was apparently Kakashi. He had spiky sliver hair that slanted to the right. He wore black mask that covered everything from the nose down. His headband covered his left eye. He also wore standard uniform.
"ARE YOU PEOPLE OUR TEACHERS!!??" shouted Naruto angrily.
"Yep I got Team 10 and Kakashi here got Team 7." Asuma said with a smirk on his face. As Asuma said this Kakashi picked up the small dog.
"Finally." Ino said. She glanced at her teacher. He was apparently talking to the ugly dog. He's just as bad as those Inuzuka people, though Ino as she went to where her team was again.
"Okay time to split Kashi." said Asuma smirking still. Ino saw Kakashi twitch at the name Asuma called him. To Ino they seemed a little too close just to be friends.
So they both took their teams and went their own separate ways.
"Okay basically all I want to know are your names, likes, dislikes, and dreams for the future; things like that." explained Kakashi as sat on the rail of the building's roof they were on.
"Umm…could you give us an example first?" asked Ino.
"Uhhh… I suppose… why not?" said Kakashi slowly, obviously not sure whether he should answer. "Okay, my name is Kakashi Hatake. I have many likes. I have many dislikes. My dream for the future… I haven't really thought about it yet." All he told us was his name, thought Ino.
"Okay Blonde, go." Kakashi said as he picked up the pug again, which was now trying to bite him.
"Okay, my name is Ino Yamanaka. I guess I like to flower arrange. I dislike creepy insects and I don't feel like telling you my dream for the future." said Ino showing that he probably couldn't figure out much either.
"Alrightie then, whoever wants to go, go." Kakashi said without taking his only visible eye off the pug which had successfully bit his hand until it was bleeding. "You emo looking kid, the one without the glasses."
"Ugh… Fine, I'm Sasuke Uchiha. I don't like anything particular. I don't dislike anything, I only hate someone. My dream for the future, to kill a certain someone." Sasuke said in a weirdly upbeat tone.
"Okay. Last one." said Kakashi still watching as the small dog clamped to his hand.
"My name is Shino Aburame. I don't think there's anything else worth telling." said Shino without much emotion.
"Okay from everything that I've heard, I don't think that this entire group is genin material. But I'll let the test decide." said Kakashi as he stood up. The small dog finally let go and walked away.
"Test?" wondered Ino, who also had the confused look from Sasuke to show her she wasn't alone in confusion.
"Basically come to training area 16. We're going to have a survival test." said Kakashi as he started to walk away. "Oh yeah. Don't eat breakfast. Since you're just going to throw it up." he said coldly.
Once Kakashi was gone from sight, the three decided to go home. Ino was wondering why he would speak like that and why he let that dog bite him. Shino was wondering why they were so stupid. Sasuke was feeling happy since he got to be near Ino.
They all had no idea what was in store for them the next day.
End Chapter
Me: That was long. Okay first if anyone thought it was too long, leave it in a review. If you're wondering why the teams aren't split up right, I needed an easier way to form some couples. For Sasu/Saku fans I said it in the beginning, I hate them as a couple so they aren't going to be one in this story.
Naruto: Better than your last one for sure.
Me: Once I get enough hits and/or reviews I'll start posting more.
Naruto: So Read & Review.
