Chapter 1
The sound of an alarm woke the young boy from his dream of eating a bowl of ramen the size of his apartment. He punched his alarm clock sending it flying across the room. The ringing ceased. A moment later it started up again. Naruto punched the table in an attempt to get the darn thing to shut up but only succeeded in hurting his hand. He shot up gripping his hand. Still not quite grasping what had happened he looked at the empty space where his alarm clock should be. By this time it had stopped ringing. Seeing that his alarm clock was missing he shot out of bed screaming "NOOO!" (Much to his neighbor's dissatisfaction). "Where is it? Where is it?! Where is it?! WHERE- Oh found it." Naruto yelled. "Would you keep it down in there?" A neighbor called through the wall. "Sorry" Naruto replied. He walked over to the fridge and opened it in search of ramen. After several objects had flown out of the fridge there came a triumphant "FOUND YOU!" from inside the fridge. And a SHHHH! From across the hall. "Sorry!" Naruto yelled back. "SHUT UP!" was the answer. "Sheesh touché" Naruto remarked. Naruto pulled out his ramen, cooked it, and ate it without incident. He then went to the academy for what he thought would be the last time.
"Weapons, today you will be paired with a meister. Meisters visa versa" Sid said. "With the exception of the Ino-Shika-Cho trio there are an even number of weapons and meisters this year. So I don't want to see anybody without a partner. Got it?!" Sid said. Naruto looked around. 'Who's gonna be my meister?' he wondered 'Will it be the big brown guy, the short girl, the guy with spiky red hair or-' his thoughts were interrupted by someone tapping him on the shoulder. It was a slightly tall kid with spiky orange hair. "Yo, my name's Kurosaki Ichigo. I'm a meister. What about you?" Ichigo asked. "My name's Uzumaki Naruto. I'm a weapon" Naruto replied. "So do you want to team up?" Ichigo asked. Naruto was quite surprised by the offer. "My only friends are also meisters and I saw that no one had asked you yet so..." Ichigo explained "Sure" Naruto replied happily. He'd thought that the only reason someone would ask him was 'cause they Sid ordered it. "OK has everyone got a partner?!" Sid asked. There came a collective response of "YES!". "In that case come up here and redgester. Then you will have 3 hours of free time while we decide your squads" Sid said.
Three hours later: "Team Seven: Kurosaki Ichigo, Uzumaki Naruto, Kuchiki Rukia, Haruno Sakura, Uchiha Sasuke, and Ishida Uryu. Team Eight: Yamanaku Ino, Akimichi Choji, and Nara Shikamaru. Team 10: Abarai Renji, Inuzuka Kiba, Yasutora Sado, Hyuga Hinata, Soma Akio, and Aburame Shino. OK you can come- Sid was cut off by: "I AM THE GREAT BLACK STAR AND I'VE COME HERE TO GET MY STUDENTS, YAHOO!" Black Star yelled. "Hi, I'm Tsubaki." Tsubaki said meekly. "Geeze, Black Star can you ever enter a room without yelling?" Kid asked. "What Kid surprised by how big I am? I'm sure you're adjusting to it by now" Black Star replied. "You know, I feel kind of bad for team 10" Ichigo remarked. "Hello students I'm Death the Kid but you can just call me Kid for short" Kid said. "Hello I'm Elizabeth Thompson but you can call me Liz" Liz said. "Hi I'm Patti" Patti said. "Hi I'm Soul Eater but I go by Soul" said Soul. "Hello I'm Maka" Maka said. "Alright each of you go with your respective teachers" Sid ordered.
Team 7 was out on a large balcony. "I want us all to get to know each other so why don't we introduce ourselves and tell each other our likes dislike hobbeis future dreams ect." Maka said. "Who wants to go first?" she asked. "Why don't you go first Maka-sensei?" Sakura asked tentatively. "OK. My name is Albarn Maka. My likes are many as are my dislikes. My hobbies are few and I don't have much of a future dream" Maka replied.
"My name is Soul Eater. My likes and dislikes I don't feel like discussing. My hobbies are many and my future dream is none of your business" Soul said. "So in the end isn't all we know their names?" Sakura remarked. "OK now, from left to right" Soul said.
"My name is Uzumaki Naruto. I like instant cup ramen. I also like the ramen Iruka-sensie gets me at Ichiraku's. My dislikes are the three minutes it takes to prepare ramen. My hobby is trying and comparing the different kinds of ramen. And my future dream is to become the greatest Hokage ever!" Naruto said.
"My name is Kurosaki Ichigo. My likes are hanging out with my friends and helping Plus' pass over. My dislikes are bullies, fortune telling, horoscopes, feng shui, psychics, and anyone whose trade involves taking money from people for things they cannot see. My hobbies are training in my taijutsu and hanging out with my friends. And my dream is to become strong enough to protect the people important to me" Ichigo said.
"My name is Kuchiki Rukia. I like rabbits and anything rabbit themed. I dislike Inuzuri and everyone in it. I also dislike it when anybody makes fun of my drawings. My hobbies are acting and climbing. My future dream is to prove that I'm as strong as my brother" Rukia said.
"Oh! My name is Haruno Sakura. What I like- Well who I like is..." She looked at Sasuke, and giggled. "My hobbie's..." she giggled. "My dream is to..." She looked at Sasuke and squealed. "And dislike's?" Soul asked. "Naruto!" Sakura yelled. Naruto looked surprised and saddened. Sakura kept looking at Sasuke.
"My name is Uchiha Sasuke. I dislike most thing's and like very little." Sakura seemed surprised and saddened "My hobby is training. And my dream... No, my ambition; is to restore my clan and to kill a certain duo." Sasuke said, an image of his brother flashing through his mind. 'Sasuke's so cool' Sakura thought. 'He doesn't mean me does he?' Naruto wondered nervously.
"My name is Uryu Ishida. I have few likes and many dislikes. My hobbies are training and sewing. And my ambition is to help Sasuke kill those two.
"Okay now that we all now each other we can start our assignment" Maka said. "Whats our assignment Maka-sensei?" Sakura asked. "Well its more of an exercise than an assignment" Soul said. Maka reached into her shirt. 'Oh no, incoming' Soul thought. But just then Naruto yelled "We already had plenty of exercises at the academy, we're done with that boring stuff!". "Maaakaaa CHOP" Maka said swiftly drawing her book and hitting Naruto over the head with it. 'Few, saved by the loud kid' Soul thought. "Don't interrupt me!" Maka said. "But Sakura interu-" Nauto began but Ichigo clamped his hand over Naruto's mouth before Maka hit him on the head again. "Please continue Maka-sensei" Ichigo said still holding Naruto's mouth shut. "Well this exercise is a little different from the ones a the academy. To be precise if you fail this exercise you will be sent back to the academy" Maka said. They all looked shocked and pissed off. "Then what were the graduation exams for?" Ichigo asked angrily. There came murmurs of agreement from the others. "Though's were just to see who had the potential to pass. After all we can't waist our time with people who would fail anyway" Soul said. "Okay we'll see you tomorrow, bright and early". "One more thing. Don't eat breakfast. You'll throw up" Soul said.
