Monkey: Hello! How are you? Me? No one cares. This is my new fanfic that I mentioned in the third chapter of my other fanfic. As you can all tell, this one is a Naruto fanfic.

Naruto: *Reads other fanfic.* Shouldn't you work more on the other one?

Monkey: Probably. I should also study for my finals, be a nicer person, and not eat my weight in food, but only one of those might happen.

Naruto: *sweat-drop* Okay then.

Monkey: Anyways, do the disclaimer.

Naruto: Why should I?

Monkey: Because I could ship ya off to some yaoi fan.

Chapter 1: Meeting an Element

"Okay class, listen up!" Iruka said, but was ignored. "SHUT THE HELL UP!" He yelled as his head magically became bigger. Seeing that he got their attention he started to speak again. "Good. Now I will be calling out the squads. Squad 1..." (Skip squad 1-6) "Squad 7 will be Sakura Haruno, Sasuke Uchiha and Sai-"

"Ha! Take that Ino-pig!" The pink banshee yelled pointing to the blond.

"Whatever. I was over him a long time ago." Ino said turning back to Iruka.

"What!? Like hell I would believe that!" She yelled back.

"Believe me or not. I don't care." Ino said back.

"Ahem. Your sensei will be Kakashi Hatake. Squad 8, Kiba Inuzuka, Shino Aburame, and... Christina Firesack-" he was inturrpted when the whole class started laughing, even the girl who had the name. Iruka just sighed and continued to speak. "Your sensei will be Ashita Mata. Squad 9 is in circulation. Squad 10 will be Shikamaru Nara, Choji Akamichi, and Ino Yamanaka, you sensei will be Asuma Sarutobi. Lastly, squad 11 Hinata Hyuga, Naruto Uzumaki, and Kaze Arashi. Your sensei will be Kurenai Yuhi." One looked like she was about to faint, another looked confused and the last was looking out the window.


After giving a speech, the senseis started to pick up their teams. A fairly tall and light-skinned woman with a slend built walked in. "Squad 11. Please follow me." She said.

The team followed her outside and continued walking after her. As they were walking she got a good look at her students. Naruto was strangely quiet, Hinata was looking down and Kaze was just looking around.

Said boy had on an open, sleeveless red sweater on with no shirt underneath, but had bandages around his torso and had on black pants. He also had a scar on his neck that looked like someone cut off a part of the skin. He had black hair that went just a little past his forehead and hazel colored eyes. He also had his shuriken holster on his right leg and his forehead protector around his right forearm.

As they were walking along the road, in awkward silence I might add, people were giving them nastily looks. To be more precise, Naruto. Noticing the looks he was getting the blond looked down with sad eyes. Seeing his new teammate like this, Kaze started whistling a little tune that got his team's attention. What they didn't notice was that as they walked by the wind started to pick up and the people got cuts all over their bodies.


When the team got to a restaurant, the waiter didn't want to let them in, but a glare from Kurenai and they were seated.

"Okay. Why don't we start with introductions. My name is Kurenai Yuhi. My likes are genjutsu and my friends. My dislikes are perverts, sexists and a certain orange book. My hobby is having evening drinks. My goal is to make sure that all of you become great shinobi. Now Naruto, why don't you go next." She said pointing to the blond.

"Hai! My name is Naruto Uzumaki. I like ramen. I hate the 3 minutes you have to wait for ramen to cook. My hobbies are pulling pranks. My dream is to become the best Hokage." She nodded and turned to the girl next to him, who shockingly hasn't fainted yet.

"My name is Hinata Hyuga. My likes are..." She took a glance at the blond next to her than continued, "cinnamon rolls. My dislikes are rude people. My hobby is flower pressing. My dream is to become a great clan leader so I can unite the main and side branches of my clan." Giving another nod, she turned to her last student and saw that he was listening to the others.

Seeing that all eyes were on him he started to speak. "My name is Kaze Arashi. My likes are any type of desserts and music. My dislikes are slow people, things that get in my way, and self pity. My hobbies are looking at the stars. My dream... I don't know." He also got a nod from his sensei.

Kurenai than started to speak again. "Team I want you to meet me at training ground 11 tomorrow at 7:30, understood?" She got a nod. She than Shunshined out of the restaurant.

"Oi, guys." Kaze said to the two across from him.

"Huh? Yeah? What is it?" Naruto asked looking at the boy.

"I was wondering if you guys would want to meet up at the training grounds earlier, so we could train. Ya know, for teamwork." The black haired boy explained.

"Yeah! Sure!" Naruto answered with a big grin.

"Okay." Hinata said with a smile.


It was 7:20 and Kurenai was walking to the training grounds. When she got there she saw a shocking, but pleasant, suprise. On the field was her team. Hinata and Kaze we're sparring, and Naruto was under a tree meditating, she didn't even think that was possible.

"Well what do we have here?" She asked getting her student's attention.

"Oh. Hi sensei. Hehe. Sorry. I asked these two to come earlier to do some extra training, not that you won't help us or anything." Kaze said scratching the back of his head sheepishly.

"Oh. No. It's fine. I was just wondering why you guys were here earlier than when I said." She said with a smile. "So what have you done?"

"Well..."

*FLASHBACK TIME 7:00*

"Thank you guys for coming, and sorry for asking you to come earlier." The tallest one said with a sheepish expression.

"No problem dude!" Naruto said with his hands behind his head.

"It's okay Arashi-kun. Anything to get out if my home." She whispered the last part, but the taller boy still heard and narrowed his eyes a little.

"Hehe. Thanks guys, and you can just call me Kaze." He got a nod from both of them. "Okay. Hinata, since I know that ya have your taijutsu, here Naruto." He than handed the blond a piece of paper.

"Huh? What's this?" The blond asked looking at the paper in his hand.

"This paper will help us see what chakra affinity you have. Just put some chakra into the paper and depending on what happens I can tell you what you have." Doing as he was told, Naruto put some chakra into the paper and it slit in half. "That's great! You have a Wind affinity!"

"Huh? How is that great?" Hinata asked looking just as curious as the blond next to her.

"Cuz that's my affinity too. I could help him out."

"Really!? Awesome! Thanks!"

"Now that we have that out of the way, here ya go." He said as he handed a scroll to Naruto. "This has some trainin' exercises in it. When you get the hang of it I want you to start meditating and adding chakra around your body." He than turned to Hinata. "And Hinata, you and me will be sparring with your taijutsu. I'll help you out with anything you need help in, ya got it?" He got a nod from the both if them. "Good. Let's begin."

*FLASHBACK TIME OVER*

"...And that's what happened." Kaze said as he was done explaining.

"Alright then. Well before we do anything, let me tell you that I am proud of your leadership skills, Kaze." She said getting a thanks from him. "Now let me tell all of you that you are not fully genin yet."

"What!" Naruto yelled as Kaze just nodded and Hinata looked shocked. "What do you mean Kurenai-sensei!?"

"She means that we have to do something else before we can become official genin." This got a confused look from the other two. "Don't you two find it kinda weird that so many people passed the test at the academy?"

"Exactly." Kurenai said. "We need to narrow it down so that only some teams become official squads." She explained further. "Now the three of you have until 12 to tag me. Staring...now." She Shunshined away.

"Right. Hinata, I want you to use your Byakugan to try and find sensei. Naruto, you better get ready for anything." He got nods.

"Byakugan!" As Hinata activated her family justsu, the other two got ready for a fight. "I found her!"

"Right. Lead the way Hinata." As they ran throughout the woods they encountered multiple types of genjutsu, but Kaze just dispelled all of them.

'This kid is good.' Kurenai thought. As she was about to set another genjutsu a seen on went past her face and hit the tree she was on.

"Found ya sensei."

"Yes, but you still need to tag me." She stated calmly.

"Oh, but on the contrary, sensei. We already have." She was confused for a second when she noticed that only him and Hinata were standing there.

'Where's Naruto?' Before she could ponder on the thought, she felt a tap on her shoulder. She turned to see Naruto looking at her with a big smile on his face. "I guess your right. Very well. You all pass. Good job."

"Thanks sensei!" They all chorused.


After leaving the training grounds and talking with the Hokage, the team was walking down the street. "So guys. What do you think our missions will be like?" Naruto asked looking at his teammates.

"Well first we'll have to do D-rank missions like weeding or babysitting, ya know stuff like that. After a while sensei can recommend us to take C-rank missions." Kaze explained getting an unhappy look from the blond. "Don't start Naruto. Besides, it won't be that bad. We could get some days off to train."

"Yeah, yeah. Fine. Well I'm gonna get going. See ya guys later." Naruto said walking away. Turning to Hinata he started to speak again.

"So how are things, Hinata?"

"U-um...Good...I guess." She said not really use to talking to others.

"Hinata, there are three things that I want to help ya with. Will ya let me?" He asked looking at her.

"What are they?"

"The first is with your shyness. Second is with your family. Lastly..." He was now smirking as he continued. "The last thing is to get that blond idiot that we call a teammate to be your boyfriend." At this point the poor girl was red from head to toe.

"Wh-what?"

"Ya heard me. Now I'm gonna head on home too. See ya Hina." He said with a wave goodbye.
