Hey all this is my first story
Please read and review
and i don't own Naruto. wish I did, but such is life.
Naruto was coming back from a mission late in the afternoon in one of the nearby lodging towns where his 'Important Solo Mission' had been to help rebuild the town after a summer fire.
"That Tsunade Baa-Chan. Some important solo mission" grumbled Naruto, thinking only of his apartment and the ramen and bed that awaited him there. As such, he didn't notice when a figure crouching on a nearby rooftop disappeared. Reaching his Apartment, Naruto cooked some ramen and after his dinner, fell sound asleep on his bed.
Later that night…
"This is the agreement. You must select and train three genin for a period of two months, at least once every two years." Said Tsunade, pouring herself some sake.
"And in return?" Asked a mysterious figure sitting across from Tsunade. They were in Tsunade's office in the Hokage building.
"You'll have a relationship similar to the Sannin's. You'll be able to come and go as you please without any commitments" said Tsunade, sighing "But we will need a way to contact you should anything happen."
The mysterious figure sighed and produced a messenger hawk with light brown feathers, a black head and deep golden eyes.
"Her name is Kaya. She will always know where to find me"
"It's settled then. I would like you to start with this year's group" said Tsunade.
"Then could you please issue a summons to all those involved to meet at, say, the chuunin exam stage in about a week."
Tsunade nodded.
The next morning Naruto awoke and after his usual breakfast found an important looking scroll labeled "To Uzumaki Naruto, from the Godaime Hokage" Unbeknownst to him, all of the Konoha 11 had received similar scrolls. When Naruto opened it, this was the message:
"To Uzumaki Naruto. A foreign shinobi has issued a challenge to the group that you call the 'Konoha 11'. You are to report to the Chuunin Exam stage in a week's time at exactly 10 am. You may have the following week to train.
Signed Tsunade, the Godaime Hokage." Naruto grinned.
"This will be a piece of cake!" he exclaimed "Off to train!"
When Sakura read her scroll her only thought was 'HELL YEAH!'
Ino, Shikamaru and Chouji had their scrolls delivered to them by Asuma. After they had read them Shikamaru commented "We don't know if we'll be fighting in three man cells or individually. We aren't told this shinobi's abilities either. This is too troublesome" he still began to come up with strategies though.
Hinata, Shino and Kiba also had their scrolls delivered to them by their sensei, Kurenai. After reading them they came to the same conclusions as Shikamaru and also began to prepare for any situation.
When Gai's team had read their scrolls, Gai immediately began to proclaim that youth would prevail over all obstacles, with Lee enthusiastically agreeing with his sensei. Neji and Ten-ten simply looked bored and began to think how they would defeat this mysterious shinobi.
