I do not own Naruto in any way shape or form. I am just a fan of the series.

This story is mostly about a new team 7. Hope you enjoy my new characters. This is my first fanfic!

This part is from Katsumi's perspective, but other character's perspectives will be added as well in the following chapters.

The Katsumi Chronicles

I'm leading a double life. People call me a prodigy in the Land of Fire. Being the host of the Nine-tails, becoming an ANBU at only five years, I don't have many friends. Except for my sensei and fellow ANBU. Hopefully that will all change. Being lonely most of my young life, with no one to turn to. Before sensei came, the villagers beat me and called me a monster, ostracizing me. They didn't understand. Hopefully that will all change. With my identity hidden I will join a three man squad with people my age for once. Limiting my powers as much as I can, but letting them shine if anyone is in real danger. Living a new life but keeping my past a complete secret. My name is Katsumi Izanagi S-class ninja of Kohona. Beautiful victory of the fire country.

Stares of curiosity and welcome radiated in the room from all sides. My sensei Ushio shoved me into the room giving me a thumbs up. "You just love putting me out of my comfort zone, don't ya sensei," I whispered so only he could hear. He smirked.

I took a good look at the ninja academy classroom. It was average size with long white walls and a chalkboard. The confused looking teacher was up front near the door and eight students were sitting in the three rows behind desks. One seat was empty.

"H-hello," the sensei stuttered looking directly at me. Usual reaction, at least he wasn't a super pervert like some guys when they first meet me. Gaining his composure he stated, "You're just in time to pull names for the teams. You must be the new arrival."

I nodded, was this guy really that much of an idiot. Who else could be? Look an idiot!

"Your name wasn't in the info report-"

I cut him off, not wanting to start talking about my barely filled out info report. "Call me Katsumi."

"Well Katsumi, find a seat as I call out the teams."

I already knew my team and my jounin sensei. Ushio and I talked to him about my predicament. He is the only one who knows my true identity here besides the hokage. His name is Kakashi Hatake and even though I clearly outrank him, he said just to cover up my identity, in public he would treat me like a genin.

(Flashback)

"So you're Katsumi Izanagi, Beautiful victory ninja of the land of fire. Nice to meet you."

"Kakashi sensei the famous copy ninja, right?" I inquired, "May I examine you?" He stared at me clearly freaked out a bit.

My sensei Ushio laughed. "She means she wants to find out more about you in nine-tails chakra form."

"Sure, I guess." Focusing on Kurama in his cage asked him do the usual.

"Grr, I was napping, fine be my guest." Suddenly my body became engulfed in bright yellow chakra (like my body was on fire) with the sage of six paths markings on my body.

"Mmmm. Very talented, with a lightening chakra nature. Can use water techniques in addition. That's interesting, you've now obtained the mangekyo sharingan." Not wanting to invade his privacy any further the chakra mode subsided.

Kakashi stated, "It is amazing that you could discern so much information by being in that form, no wonder you're an S-class ninja. Anyway it's time I tell you your genin team. Shikiari and Mitsuki tied for rookie of the year this year. No match for you in the amount of chakra and techniques you possess, but very talented nonetheless I've heard."

Sensei sighed, "Hope they are not to full of themselves. Befriend them, and have fun ok."

"Yooouuu bet!" I smiled giving him a thumbs up.

(End Flashback)

Walking to sit down I eyed the various people in my class. Seeing multiple clan symbols like Akimichi, Nara, Uchiha and Aburame made me curious about what my peers were capable of.

"Ok everyone listen up! Before we name the teams, say hi to our new student Katsumi. She will be on one of your teams this year." The sensei Iruka (I found out from his name tag) frowned and smirked as the kid with the Nara clan symbol raised his hand.

"Sorry Iruka sensei but doesn't she have to go through the academy before she is put on a team?"

"No she is way past that level already, right Katsumi?"

Waving him off with a flick of my wrist to the side (my usual wave) I managed a slight smile. "You could say so." My peers looked really confused. All except that Nara kid. He was just sitting there seeming to be deep in thought. If he looked anymore that way he ought to be smoking a cigarette.

What is more the Uchiha kid was staring at me, it was… kinda creepy, obsessed kinda. Like he had an instant crush on me. Everyone thinks I'm pretty. My name is Victorious beauty. But I don't see it. My training outfit is a red garment lace up that just covers my bosom with matching red elbow protecters / gloves. Also with dark grey capris and brown sandals. I have natural brown hair and blue eyes.

"Ok," Iruka continued, "Now to announce the teams. Team five…" Blah blah talk about boring. Did I care about the other teams, hell no! I just wanted to fit the names I heard to faces. "And at last but not least, " Iruka boomed, "Team seven with jounin sensei Kakashi Hatake, Shikiari Nara, Mitsuki Uchiha, and Katsumi Izanagi."

In my peripheral vision I saw Mitsuki's face rise and clench a fist smiling. Oh great, lover boy and curious dude could my life get any worse. If only they knew. Heck yes! "Now everyone get acquainted with your new teams and senseis, now go on outside."

Like a wave everyone rose and filed out. I saw Shikiari and Mitsuki eyeing me and drawing closer. Trying to look cooler by putting my hands in my pockets and drawing out a breath, as we walked outside. When we reached the courtyard I gave my signature wave to Kakashi and he nodded. This got confused looks from Nara and Uchiha. They probably hadn't seen Kakashi yet. Leading us over to a secluded spot, sensei sat us down.

"Now lets get to know more about you three." he winked at me.

"May I go first," blurted Mitsuki.

"Sure." Say your name age interests or hobbies and dream."

"Mmmkay . My name is Mitsuki Uchiha, I am twelve years old. I love to practice taijutsu and sparring with my brother, and to hang out with my friends. My dream is to be the best ninja I can be and have as much fun as I possibly can have." After that he beamed like the sun, hugging his knees and rocking back and forth.

"Okay Shikiari you next."

"My name is Shikiari Nara, I'm twelve years old. I like to play go and shougi with my dad. Also to look at clouds. Don't really have a dream in life, just to gain a lot of knowledge and go with the flow."

"Good, ok Katsumi."

The spotlight was on me but I decided to keep it short and sweet. "My name is Katsumi Izanagi and I am also twelve. I enjoy training with my sensei. And my dream is to become hokage."

There was a minute of silence until Mitsuki interrupted. "Despite you answering the questions, we barely know anything about you. Shikiari and I have known each other for years. Why are you here? And how come you weren't in the academy with us?"

I looked at Kakashi but he seemed like he had been expecting this. "She is here to get a three man team her age that has been denied to her for a very long while. And the second question's answer you will find out when she is willing to tell you."

My new sensei sighed, "Anyway, now it is time to get your first mission. Follow me."

He lead us through a series of roads and alleys until we got to the hokage tower. Its bright red color stood out from all the other buildings near it. Inside we entered the hokage's room. She sat at a huge oak desk. Big bosomed, she wore a grey tank top with a dark green shrug. Her blond hair back in a ponytail. "Hello," she said behind a big stack of paperwork. "I see you've come for a mission."
