Disclaimer: I own nothing of Naruto of course. Sasuke probably would be back by now if I did.

Note: So yeah, this is originially for a close friend of mine who wanted to see what Naruto's kids would be like along with other kids of our favorite ninjas. So, I hope you all enjoy it and tell me what you think in a review so I can know if chapter two is worth putting up.

New Team 7

"I don't know, I almost don't want to wake him up…" Sakura murmured to her husband with a large grin on her face. Sasuke leaned in the door way, his arm around Sakura's waist "Yes, but Ichiro would have a heart attack if he was late for the day he gets assigned for a squad" Sasuke said in a whisper, messing with Sakura's long pink hair that rested in a pony-tail. Their second child Mamiko suddenly pushed between them and rushed up to her snoozing older brother and jumped on his bed.

"Wake up, Ichiro!" she shouted making Ichiro bolt up and accidentally knock Mamiko off his bed. The dark haired girl hopped up, her twin braids swinging. Ichiro rubbed his green eyes tiredly and looked to his parents "I'm not late, am I?" Ichiro asked, throwing his covers off. "We wouldn't do that you, get dressed" Sakura motioned for Mamiko to leave the room and Sasuke shut the door for Ichiro's privacy.

As they walked down the hall, six year old Takara waddled out in her pajamas, asking sleepily "What's going on?" which made Sasuke chuckle and pick Takara up "Nothing little one, you don't have to get dressed for another hour" he assured her and glanced down at Mamiko "And neither do you, so why are you so energetic?" he arched an eyebrow at her.

Mamiko smiled big "My big bro's officially a ninja, I wanna be there for him" Mamiko said sweetly, making her parents smile. The Uchihas had three children with a fourth one on the way. Ichiro was their first born with black hair that lay flat against his head and emerald eyes, He took more after of Sasuke, but had Sakura's social abilities. Mamiko was the middle child and two year younger than Ichiro and looked exactly like Sasuke's mother, she had a big heart and seemed to get along with everyone. Then there was little Takara, who had curly pink hair and coal black eyes but was a rather gifted child who already seemed like she could handle being a medical ninja.

Sasuke set Takara down and the girls ran to the kitchen and they're parents followed, Sakura catching the toast just as it popped out of the toaster. As Sakura served the food, Ichiro walked in, wearing his normal ninja outfit: a black mesh shirt with a black leather jacket zipped over it that had the Uchiha symbol on the back, cargo shorts, and his ninja shoes. Not to mention his headband hanging around his neck. "You look ready for school" Sakura said happily as Ichiro sat down by Mamiko.

"Yeah, I just hope I don't get put on the same team as Akina Uzumaki, she's so annoying" Ichiro sighed, rolling his eyes. "Ichiro, be nice. Akina's a sweet girl she's just…" Sakura paused to look for the right word. "Spaztic?" Sasuke offered before taking a bite of his eggs "Energetic" Sakura ignored her husband's words, used to his slight sarcasm.

"If Akina's just energetic then Mamiko's just loud" Ichiro snorted making Mamiko shout "Hey!" and glare at her big brother. "You two should get along better; follow the example of your uncle Itachi and your dad when they were kids. They got along just fine and there was a bigger age difference" Sakura lectured and cast a deadly glare at Ichiro who was about to roll his eyes. "It's true, we hit a rough patch when I was Ichiro's age and until I was sixteen, but I doubt you two will end up like that" Sasuke assured, patting his son on the shoulder.

Sasuke and Sakura traded glances, the memories sharing between them of that particularly vicious time. Their kids new about the fourth great shinobi war, but they couldn't bring themselves to tell the children what Itachi had done.

What Sasuke had done.

"Mom, dad, you both have that "thinking about the past" look" Mamiko pointed out before stuffing her face. Sakura smiled with a bit of blush coloring her cheeks while Sasuke just smirked, mostly at himself. "If you don't want Akina on your team, then who would you want?" Sasuke asked with a raised eyebrow. Ichiro became thoughtful "Well…"

Akina looked at herself in the mirror. Hair in two ponytails, check. Orange scarf, check. Dark purple tank top, check. Tan skort, check. Orange and white arm warmers, check. Fishnet stockings, check. Ninja shoes, check. Headband, check. She was all set and ready for her first day of being a ninja.

As Akina trotted out of her room and down to the living room she saw her brothers wresting like morons. "Boys, play nice" Hinata said in that kind way of hers. Akina's brothers were Jakobe (ten) and Jiraiya (eight). They both had raven black hair but while Jakobe had Hinata's eyes, Jiraiya had Naruto's. Jiraiya still had the byakugan, but his eyes didn't change unless he was using it. Akina herself had Naruto's bright blonde hair, Hinata's eyes, Hinata's body type, and Naruto's personality.

A yellow flash rushed in and picked up the brothers, making them laugh in surprise. "Didn't your mom say behave?" Naruto chuckled as he held one boy in each arm, not even breaking under the young struggles. "Okay, sorry dad" Jakobe huffed with a laugh. Akina saw her father was already wearing his Hokage cloak and her heart swelled with pride. Her dad was the sixth Hokage, one of the greatest in Akina's opinion.

Naruto set his sons down and kissed Hinata on the cheek, her whole face lighting up. "Ready for your first day of ninja training, Akina?" Naruto asked, placing his hand on top of her head. "Yep! I'm gonna be a great ninja, just like you dad!" Akina assured with a big grin on her face. "Just remember, no one is perfect on their first day" Hinata reminded Akina gently before giving her a hug.

"I know, mama, I'll try and be patient" Akina promised, giving a two fingered salute. "And be nice to your squad members," Naruto leaned down to whisper "Even if it's Ichiro Uchiha" Akina groaned as Naruto laughed. "Don't mess up, Aki-chan!" Jiraiya gushed, waving to his big sister. "I won't kiddo, I'll do the Uzumaki name proud!" Akina promised, giving a thumbs up. She then rushed out the door, sprinting like it was nothing.

Akina had to behave if she was ever going to learn those new jutsu from her parents that were supposed to be really powerful. She had seen her dad's rasengan, which alone packed a punch. Akina wanted to be a great ninja, maybe even one of the guardian Shinobi twelve. Or a sannin like grandma Tsunade. Though she had a hunch that would be a bit tougher to become.

As for Hokage, Akina didn't feel the need. She loved her dad, but she didn't think she could sit around and wait for something important happen. She heard her dad grumble about paper work. And now when something bad happened in the village she would get to help; she'd be an official ninja! "I'll blow my sensei away, he'll want to promote me to chuunin in no time" Akina snickered as she ran.

Some people waved to her as she hopped around the town to the academy while others bowed. Some even said "Hello princess Akina!" which she didn't necessarily mind. As Akina headed to the academy, she saw her dad's best friend Sasuke Uchiha coming out of the Uchiha police force building. "Hi Sasuke-san!" Akina waved from the bottom of the stairs. "Hi Akina…shouldn't you be at the academy already?" Sasuke asked, glancing in that direction.

"I'm headed there now, don't worry. Besides, I'm the Hokage's daughter so I think I'm allowed to be fashionably late" Akina giggled, making Sasuke shake his head. "You're too much like your father, now go before you get in trouble" Sasuke ushered her forward and Akina was bounding away quickly.

When she finally was in the academy front yard Akina hopped over the old swing that had been tied to that old tree for ages. She didn't think anyone even used it. Either way, Akina burst through the front doors and luckily there were still kids wandering around along with some teachers.

She wasn't late.

Akina dashed to her classroom and pushed open the door, stepping in without a single ring of the bell. Akina breathed a sigh of relief and put her hands on her knees momentarily. "I knew you wouldn't miss being on time for squad day" a familiar voice said. Akina looked up to see her friend Akahana Inuzuka. Akahana had shoulder length curly brown hair and weird black eyes that reminded Akina of a dog's. She was a bit of a tomboy with her grey hoodie and baggie shorts, but that was good ninja wise. "No way, I hope we get to be on the same squad" Akina declared with a smile as she fist bumped Akahana.

The blonde genin then looked around to see who else she knew.

There was Chouma and Inokota of the Akimichi clan. Chouma was a bit on the pudgy side but his slim sister was the one that always seemed to be eating. Chouma had the trade mark Akimichi spiky light brown hair and his seem to go straight up and towards the middle. He and his sister both had bright blue eyes from their mother though. Inokota looked exactly like her mother Ino, except her blonde hair was shorter and her bangs were parted down the middle. Inokota was actually only eleven, but she was talented enough to be bumped up with their class.

The Nara twins were being polar opposites as usual. They looked exactly alike with black hair in low ponytails and teal colored eyes along with the same body build. But they were completely different. They were both incredibly smart, but only one of them used their brain on a regular basis. Hiromasa was the lazy one, he was nearly falling asleep at his seat right now. Shikazuno was the hardworker and he even had a bit of a sense of humor.

Danma Hyuuga was waiting patiently for squads to be assigned. He was Akina's second cousin and they didn't really get along because of their different personalities. Danma had short, choppy chocolate brown hair and the byakugan eyes as well. His role in life was supposed to protect Akina since she was part of the main branch, but they preferred to stay there separate ways.

Then there was Toko Lee. She had wavy, shiny black hair that was kept in a tight pony tail, steel green eyes (lucky for her she didn't get her dad's eyes) and a passion for being a ninja. She was like her dad in a lot of ways: including the green jumpsuit.

Akina's eyes caught sight of the biggest jerk she'd ever known. Ichiro Uchiha. He was confident in everything and just because he was good at his jutsu he was so full of himself (in Akina's opinion) not to mention every time he flipped his hair every girl in the class fell to their knees. Even Akahana. But no girl ever approached him, they all preferred to admire him from afar and it made Akina's blood boil.

She didn't see what so special about the stupid Uchiha. Akina stormed over and plopped in the seat next to him, hearing a collective gasp from every girl in the class. Ichiro had been staring out the window but he glanced in her direction, a dark eyebrow arched. "Morning, Uzumaki" he greeted casually, his hand under his chin. "Uchiha" Akina said curtly before noticing where his forehead protector was. "Idiot, that's supposed to go on your forehead" Akina reprimanded, making Ichiro roll his eyes.

"It doesn't have to and I'm not the only one that does this. Plus my neck needs as much protection from kunai as my forehead" Ichiro shrugged, a slight smirk on his face. Akina's eyes narrowed, never liking it when he was smug. "You think you're so witty, it's annoying, not cool!" Akina barked, using her phrase that she used when she got excited, angry, or on adrenaline. Her dad said "Believe it" and apparently her grandma Kushina had said "Like no."

"Whatever" Ichiro leaned back in his seat, his expression cool as always. Akina heard some girls swoon, one being Inokota. She whipped around since Inokota was sitting almost directly behind her "Get a grip, Inokota! He's just a stupid Uchiha" Akina whisper yelled, glaring at the fellow blonde. Inokota leaned forward to answer "Yeah, but he's sooo cute and cool, I'm so glad my mom married my dad instead of an Uchiha, now I can have the chance!" Inokota whispered dreamily, making Akina growl in frustration.

"I can hear you" Ichiro said simply making the girls freeze up. Akina turned around and glowered at Ichiro "So what? Afraid I'll make sure your fan girls come to their senses?" Akina grinned evilly, looking like she planned to do just that. But as she was ranting, Inokota had been waving at Ichiro in a "cute" manner the entire time. Ichiro looked at Akina for a moment before shaking his head "I could care less what you do" and then went to look back out the window.

Akina practically felt the steam coming out of her ears. She took a deep breath and turned forward, wanting to calm down. She had promised her dad to be nice today. Though if Akina had to choose, she'd want Akahana and Shikazuno on her team. She got along with the both of them so there'd be no problem.

Iruka-sensei suddenly came in with a paper of names. "Morning Iruka-sensei!" Akina shouted above the others who greeted him, she often saw the older ninja at her house. He was a regular visitor along with Kakashi-sensei and grandma Tsunade. She loved all three of them, they were extended family. "Alright class, settle down. We're going to assign squads today" Iruka announced, making Akina practically bounce in her seat.

She waited as he called for teams and it took all her will not to jump out of her seat "Team seven will be: Hiromasa Nara, Akina Uzumaki," okay, wasn't too bad for her "And Ichiro Uchiha" Akina blinked. Had she heard that right? No, no way could she be…

She was…

One the same team as Ichiro Uchiha…

What the HELL?

Her mind screamed and this time Akina was sure steam was blowing like a train whistle out of her head. While she fumed, all the other girls in the class groaned. She missed the names of team eight. "Team nine is Danma Hyuuga, Akahana Inuzuka, and Toko Lee" Akina was almost ready to switch with Akahana. She'd take both her cousin and Toko over Uchiha. "And then team ten is Inokota Akimichi, Shikazuno Nara, and Chouma Akimichi" Iruka finished, putting the paper on his desk.

"I'll go get your squad leaders" Iruka-sensei then left the room. Akahana turned to Akina with a disappointed look "Well, this'll be an interesting time" was all she could say, letting out a huff. "Yeah, thanks to my crappy luck" Akina muttered, grinding her teeth.

The sound of a chair scooting back and someone jumping into the air made Akina jolt backward off her desk for her own safety. Orange leg warmers blocked her vision and within another second Toko Lee was squatting down in front of Akina, glowering. Toko had gotten everything look wise from her mom, so she was actually quite pretty. Akina was positive she'd be more frightened if big bushy eyebrows were furrowed at her.

"Can I help you?..." Akina said slowly, leaning farther back in her chair. "You may be on the same team as Ichiro-kun, but I will not be defeated!" Toko stood up and pointed her index finger at Ichiro, little hearts seeming to form in her eyes as she readied to say something "I will win your heart, Ichiro Uchiha!" she shouted loudly, causing the whole class to go quiet. Ichiro looked a little dumbfounded, but only a little.

"Toko! Get in your seat!" Iruka shouted from the doorway, causing Toko to leap back to her spot. Akina blinked, since when was she in the "Ichiro" competition?

The squad leaders came in, grabbed their new team and left. At some point Hiromasa got up and sat down next to Akina as they waited. "This is such a bore, where's our captain?" he complained with a sigh, finally having woken himself up. "I kinda hope it's not Kakashi-sensei, he's always so late" Akina huffed, watching Iruka poke his head out the door and seem to usher someone else in.

Akina realized they were the last team; this had to be their squad leader. A man with abnormally pale skin, coal black hair that lay flat against his head, wearing a green jonin jacket over black clothes, and who looked rather similar to Ichiro's dad walked in. Iruka slipped out, leaving introductions to the four of them.

"Hello, my name is Sai. From this day on, I'm your captain and your sensei" he gave a polite smile to them. Akina and Ichiro both shot to their feet, asking similar questions:

"Why do you look so much like my dad?"

"Why do you look so much like Sasuke-san!"

They looked at each other before Akina glared and stomped down to the front. Hiromasa followed suit, sitting on top of a desk instantly. Ichiro slowly followed, calculating their new sensei. "Oh, I get that sometimes. I really don't know in all honestly, Sasuke and I just look similar. Now let me see if I get this right" he looked at the preteens. "You're definitely Ichiro Uchiha" he pointed to Ichiro. "You're Akina Uzumaki" his index finger shifted to Akina. "Which means you're Hiromasa Nara" Sai said in accomplishment. "Go ahead and call me Hiro, Sai-sensei" Hiromasa suddenly said, surprising his teammates.

Sai nodded "Well, you kids follow me, we've got some learning to do" Sai had them follow him out of the academy through town, leading to the building with tall wide pillars. There was a step or two as well, which Sai sat at the top of.

The new team sat down facing him. "Why are we all the way out here?" Hiro asked as he looked around. "This is where I first became a part of the team seven back when I was a teenager. It holds some signifigance for me" Sai explained with that same smile. "Now, let's learn a bit about each other. I want you to each tell me why you're here" Sai stated simply, making the kids look at him oddly.

"I'll go first: I'm a here because I wanted to teach young ninja how to become jonin" Sai explained, making Akina nod in understanding. "Well, I'm here because I'm exactly like my dad, but he's now an important advisor for the Hokage in battle strategies. Konoha would be lost without his help, in my opinion. And I want to achieve something greater than what I'm expected to" Hiro shrugged, his head on his arms.

Akina happily went next "I want to become one of the guardian shinobi twelve, or maybe even learn how to become a sannin…even though I know it's a bit of a stretch. But I can't be pessimistic, not cool!" Akina declared, making Sai laugh a little "You remind me of Naruto" was all he said. "And Ichiro?" Sai looked to the preteen that leaned against a pillar, one arm resting on his knee. "Honestly, I want to be Hokage…" he admitted, making Hiro and Akina look at him in surprise.

"Every single Hokage has made a difference, is the hope of the village. With every Hokage the village is brought to new heights, I want to be the Hokage that brought it higher than the moon" Ichiro was truthful, never one to talk lies. Akina stared at him with a bit of shock. The shock was only in her eyes, the only other hint of it was her mouth; it was open just the tiniest bit.

Before Ichiro could look her way, Akina composed herself. "You all have very respectful reasons for being ninjas. I look forward to training you" Sai nodded in approval. "So, what do we do first, Sai-sensei?" Akina asked excitedly, grinning widely. "Oh not until tomorrow, this is a time where you three can get some time to know each other by yourselves. Meet me tomorrow by the river at noon" Sai saluted and disappeared in a puff of white smoke before anyone could protest.

Akina jumped up, looking pumped "Okay, how about we bond over some Ichiraku ramen?" Akina suggested, looking at the boys. "Ramen is disgusting and I already know you" Ichiro looked at her coolly, making Akina's blood boil. "Fine, I don't want to hang out with you anyway, Uchiha! Not cool!" Akina bounded off, smokes of anger trailing behind her.

Ichiro and Hiro traded looks and Ichiro was surprised to see Hiro crack a smile. "Hm, and here I thought this was team was going to be a snooze fest" Hiro was serious, but his look was intrigued. "Yeah, you kind of have an interesting day with Akina around; negative or otherwise" Ichiro shrugged, smirking. Hiro got up and sat a few feet away from Ichiro, holding out his hand. Ichiro politely shook his hand, almost in camaraderie. "So, you're actually older than Shikazuno?" Ichiro asked casually, leaning against the pillar.

"Yeah, but like I said, I'm way too much like my dad. Shikazuno's like my mom so I have a feeling he and Inokota are going to kill each other" Hiro teased, that smile cracking over his face. "Wow, and people say Shikazuno is the one with humor" Ichiro teased back, still smirking. "I'm anti-social. You're probably one of the few people I've actually have a conversation with that doesn't involve insults" Hiro admitted, not really seeming to care. "Eh, guys don't like me because I'm confident in my jutsu skills and I let it show. And you see how girls are," Ichiro rolled his eyes and then appeared thoughtful "Except Akina."

Hiro nodded "Uzumaki seems to be bipolar. I wouldn't worry about it, she'll learn to deal" Hiro assured, nodding to himself. "That'd be nice. I'd rather not have my ear drums blown every day" Ichiro shook his head before glancing off to the direction Akina had bounded off.

Hinata nearly dropped her pot when she heard the very audible door slam. "Akina, don't slam the doors" Hinata reprimanded from the kitchen, her soft voice actually firm. Akina rushed into the kitchen and slammed her fists on the island counter, obviously upset. "What's the matter?" Hinata raised an eyebrow at her daughter, glancing to her sons that were playing tag in the house.

"Worst thing ever!" Akina shouted, her face flushed "My team is me, Hiromasa Nara and that jerk Ichiro Uchiha, not cool!" Akina was practically stomping her feet. As she was doing this, the sound of something expensive breaking assaulted the Uzumaki girls' ears. "Jakobe! Jiraiya!" Hinata sound a bit exasperated until she saw Naruto poking his head out from the living room with a sheepish grin. "Actually, that was my fault, Hinata…" he chuckled, scratching the back of his head as his sons stuck their head into view under him.

"Yep, all dad's fault" Jakobe confirmed, popping Jiraiya on the back of the head to get his little brother to nod his head. "Dad! I got put on the same team as Ichiro Uchiha!" Akina complained, waving her hands frantically. Naruto came into the kitchen and sighed a little "Ah geez… if I get a call from Sakura yelling at me for Ichiro having a black eye it won't end well for anyone" Naruto huffed, shaking his head. "I didn't hit him. Even though I wanted to kick that smug look off his face really, really badly!" Akina was practically jumping.

Hinata smiled softly "Naruto, why not tell her how you and Sasuke first were?" Hinata offered, turning back to making dinner. Naruto grinned widely "When I first got put on team seven with Ichiro's dad, I hated him. But when we had our first dangerous mission we bonded a little and from then on we became each other's rivals we pushed each other to be better ninja, but ultimately we became best friends" Naruto explained, giving his daughter a trademark smile that was normally infectious. Akina had that same smile.

Still, she wasn't convinced "Yeah but you were both boys and it was easier for you to get along. Ichiro doesn't hang out with any girls except his little sister!" Akina protested frantically. "Hm, then maybe you'll end up being important to him like Sakura-chan is to Sasuke," Hinata added

"She told me he used to call her annoying, but she was actually important to them, and look how they turned out" Hinata was teasing her daughter. Akina was dumbfounded. "Ichiro and Akina sitting in a tree−" "No! Shut up! Shut up! Ewww!" Akina shouted as she cut off her brothers' singing. Akina ran out of the room, her brothers chasing her and still singing, her parents laughing.

Meanwhile, Ichiro was back home, exasperated. "Hey sweetie, how was your first day as a squad?" Sakura asked from the living room. "Weird. I actually had a decent conversation with Hiromasa Nara; we have some stuff in common" Ichiro plopped on the couch where his mother was resting. "And since it's my luck, my other teammate is Akina Uzumaki" Ichiro sighed, making Sakura giggle. "Calm down, most teams don't get along when they first pair up. Who's your sensei?" Sakura asked casually, one arm slung over the back of the couch.

"Sai-sensei, he's leading our team seven" Ichiro told her, seeing his mom's eyes light up in recognition. "Sasuke! Come here!" Sakura called out. As a true ninja, Sasuke merely appeared while Mamiko could be heard running in their direction towards the house, yelling: "No fair, dad!" Sasuke had a slight smirk on his face before looking to Sakura "What's up?" he asked as he put his hands in his pockets. "Sai's the sensei for Ichiro, Akina, and Hiro who happen to be the new team seven" Sakura said with a bit of a knowing smile.

Mamiko skidded in and instantly clung to her dad's leg so he couldn't get away. She even sat on the floor to wrap her legs around his ankle, feeling victorious. Sasuke wasn't fazed by his daughter's actions or the news. "Hm, you know him better than I do, Sakura. Even after everything I didn't bother to get to know him that well" Sasuke shrugged, reminding his son how antisocial he could be.

"Is he tough?" Ichiro asked simply, rolling his eyes at the persistent Mamiko. "Well, he was in anbu before he partnered with us so he's a fine ninja. But Sai is rather…honest. It took him a while to learn how to make friends and be around people. I saw him a few months ago and he still kept in touch with all the friends he made here. I think he should be a fine teacher" Sakura reached over and fixed Ichiro's hair.

"Alright, well I'll officially start training with him so I guess I better be prepared," Ichiro glanced between his parents "So, you still plan on teaching me those new jutsus right?" Ichiro asked, anxious to learn. "Yes, your mother will be teaching you how to harbor massive strength and I'll teach you the chidori after a while" Sasuke promised, beginning to shake his leg to get Mamiko off. She laughed and clung to him, making the wrather composed ninja look silly.

As Ichiro and Sakura laughed, Sasuke continued to pry the little girl off his leg. "Mamiko, let go of your dad so he can take both you and Ichiro out back to practice your kunai attacks" Sakura ordered gently. Mamiko let go instantly and stood up. "Okay!" she then ran away quickly towards the back door.

Ichiro got up with his mother and waited for his dad in the doorway. "Dinner will be ready in an hour; don't let the future Hokage work himself too hard" Sakura teased as she lightly kissed the corner of his mouth. Sasuke nodded, releasing the arm that had been around her waist when she had gotten in reach of him. "Let's go, Ichiro" Sasuke gave his son a light push out towards the backyard, seeing a young and happier version of himself in Ichiro.
