Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto.
Chapter 1
It's been a week since I graduated from the Academy and a week since I was placed in Team 7 with Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Uzumaki under the teaching of Kakashi Hatake. After that initial meeting with Kakashi and the bell test the next morning things have been pretty simple. We meet at the bridge at eight in the morning, though Kakashi doesn't bother to show up until eleven or so. He never seems to have a decent excuse either.
My teammates are continually arguing with each other. Or are competing against one another.
Naruto is loud and never seems to stop talking. He always goes on and on about how he is going to be Hokage one day. I personally can't see that happening right now. It is my understanding that being Hokage is not just about being a strong shinobi but also to be able to be diplomatic and politic. Unless he starts taking things seriously and stops making everything into a competition he will never achieve his goal.
Sasuke doesn't really say much but his attitude is another story. He is cold and is always angry. He acts like he is better than everyone else. It's like he believes that everything should just be handed to him, that who he is should be reason enough. Now don't get me wrong he trains hard and is talented. But talent will not get you everywhere or everything.
Both of my teammates show no respect to anyone. They even show blatant disrespect to those who are in superior positions in our village.
In Naruto's case I can at least see where he is coming from. Over the years I have seen how the people of the village, including those in power, have treated him. It's not hard to see that he has problems with that. He continually pranks villagers. He doesn't seem to care about the harm he does or the damage he causes, though it is likely that he has no idea about that.
Sasuke's case is a bit different. Nearly everyone in the village knows what happened to him. What his brother did to their entire family. I understand that it was a tragedy and that it should have never happened, but that doesn't give him a right to be a pompous ass. Just because he is the sole survivor of the Uchiha clan in Konoha that does not give him the right to treat everyone around him like they are nothing.
Kakashi is another matter all together. I do not know what the Hokage was thinking when making him a sensei. He has not once been on time for any meeting he has set. He reads porn in public. He continually puts Naruto and Sasuke against each other. In his own words he is trying to get them to get everything out so that there would not be as much animosity within the team.
The three of them never really bother with me. Well Naruto continually asks me out no matter how many times I tell him I'm not interested. Sasuke just glares at me. I'm pretty sure he thinks I am just another one of his fan girls. I personally have never seen the appeal that he has on the other girls my age. If I had never actually met him I might have liked him, but after actually meeting him and being forced to spend time around him that will never happen. I would never like someone that treats me like the dirt under their feet.
Hopefully things will get better, but right now I am not really expecting much.
