a young boy, about 13 years old, is running through the streets of konoha at close to top speed, which is pretty fast. he was sporting black pants with a black shirt and a green vest. the boy, about 5'4'' was not only the youngest, but he was also the smallest jounin in the village, which usually worked for him as an advantage in battle. He is namikaze naruto, son of the yodaime hokage, and just as good a shinobi as he was. after mastering his fathers most famous the jutsu, the hirashin, he became known as the second flash of konoha. and right now, he as flashing through the city, eager to get to the hokage mansion. today was an important day for naruto.
he jumped into the window of the hokages office, just to find it empty. 'damn old man' he thought to himself, ' and when i really need to talk to him.' he decided to sit down and wait for him to return. he waited, and waited, and waited... ' DAMN OLD MAN!' he thought angrily to himself three hours later. ' god how long can one stupid meeting take?' he was practically fuming.
then the door opened. ''finally'' he breathed out, '' you took FOREVER!''
'' oh naruto, you're here already.'' the hokage said happily.
'' our appointment was hours ago!! jeez your slow. '' naruto huffed. '' now, about my application, have you decided?''
'' oh yes.. your application. well, naruto, to tell you the truth, i don't want to put you on ambu... yet. although i will eventually, i don't want to yet.''
naruto really was fuming now. '' why? i have all of the qualifications! i'm just as good as any other ambu guards!''
'' i know, but, i'd rather give you a different mission at this point in time... but, once this mission is over i will look over your application again. deal?''
naruto's face brightened up. ' one mission and he'll look over the application again? thats practically saying i'm in!' he thought excitedly. '' okay you got yourself a deal old man... so whats my mission?''
'' i want you...'' he said
'' yes?'' naruto said, brimming with curiosty.
'' to...''
'' uh huh!!''
'' teach a genin team.'' he said with a smile.
naruto fell to the floor and when he got up looked even angrier than before. '' ARE YOU NUTS OLD MAN! '' he said. '' i'm practically the same age as most of those brats! and i don't think i have the patience for that!''
'' well, too bad. we had a deal remember. you'll do this for me weather you want to or not.'' the hokage said in a serious tone that naruto just couldn't argue with. '' you better get going, they're going to be announcing the teams soon and the jounin sensei's are supposed to be present. ''
'' really? cuz i remember a certain sensei of mine being three hours late.'' mumbled naruto as he left the hokage tower and headed for the academy. ' damn hokage... damn genin... i can't be a sensei... damn... this is such a drag!' he said to himself.
'' okay'' said iruka, '' are all the jounin instructors here...'' he counted... ' no we're missing one.' he said to himself, just then, the door opened and a young blond boy came inside. '' sorry i'm late'' he muttered before going to stand next to kakashi in the front of the room.
'' naruto?'' kakashi whispered to his old sensei.
'' wow, i'm surprised to see you here.. figured you'd be three hours late like you were with my team'' naruto mocked.
'' i thought you put in an application for the ambu?'' kakashi questioned.
'' the old man said i have to teach a team of genin.. then he'll put me in.'' naruto huffed, still irritated.
'' oh well, i'm teaching too... we can train our teams together if you want.'' kakashi said.
'' sounds good to me. '' naruto smiled at his old sensei.
meanwhile, the kids in the class were shocked to see a kid their own age not only wearing a jounin jacket and standing with the jounins, but he was talking to THE hatake kakashi, the copy ninja of konoha! of coarse, most of the younger generation did not know what naruto looked like, though they'd all heard of him, they figured he would be in his 20's like most of the other jounins.
'' hey'' one boy with black hair shouted from the middle of the seats, '' isn't it illegal to wear a jounin jacket if your not a jounin?''
'' yep'' naruto answered to the boy. '' why do you ask?''
'' well, your no older than anyone in this room.. how old are you?''
'' 13'' naruto replied.
'' there's no way your a jounin!''
'' why's that?'' kakashi said, stepping into the argument.
the raven haired boy looked at the older jounin. '' is he really a jounin?'' he asked dumbfounded.
'' yes.. i am'' naruto answered haughtily. it was okay to be underestimated on the battle field, but these idiots were a different story. '' now i believe iruka has a job to do, you should shut up and let him finish.''
the raven scowled, but sat down anyway. '' uh... okay then. yeah. lets get on with the teams. okay first team; team 6 is inuzuka kiba, haruto sakura, and uchiha sasuke, and your sensei is namikaze naruto.'' iruka said happily. there was an excited buzz flying around the room. '' wow they have the second flash! how amazing'' sighed ino. sasuke smirked. ' he'll make me strong.' he thought to himself. sakura was jumping for joy. ' i'm on sasuke kun's team!' she thought to herself. ' yes yes yes!' '' okay you three get together and stand over here. after the pairings your sensei's will come see you. that goes for everyone else, when i call you name join these three. '' iruka said to the genin hopefuls. '' okay now team 7; yamanaka ino, hyuuga hinata, nara shikamaru and your jounin sensei is hatake kakashi. '' ino nearly jumped out of her boots. '' ooh the copy ninja hatake kakashi, thats just as good as namikaze!'' she met up with her team mates and joined team six.
this went on for a little over 20 minuets. '' okay, '' iruka called out, '' you're jounin sensei's will be coming to meet you now. '' naruto and kakashi walked over to the two at the far end of the room. both jounins looked at their groups. '' be on the roof in five minuets.'' they both said before disappearing in a swirl of leaves.
'' were they talking to us?'' sakura and kiba said at the same time.
'' yeah'' sasuke said. '' lets go.'' the two teams headed for the stairs and when they got there, they found the two jounin sitting side by side, laughing at something they had obviously not heard.
'' looks like their here kakashi.'' naruto said as he saw the group of six come onto the roof. '' okay'' he called out, '' i need inuzuka, haruno, and uchiha to sit in front of me, you three in front of kakashi.'' naruto said. they obeyed, but still had their doubts.
when they sat down, sakura raised her hand. '' excuse me, but, our sensei is supposed to be THE namikaze naruto... but your just a little kid.. is he sick or something?''
naruto's vein popped on his forehead. '' okay, lets start with introductions.'' he said annoyed.
'' and why don't you start.'' said kakashi, noticing the annoyance in his comrades voice. '' the usual, name, age, likes, dislikes, dreams and so on''
naruto looked at kakashi and huffed. '' fine'' he turned back to his students. '' my name is namikaze naruto. i'm 13.. i like ramen.. and training. my favorite jutsu's are the ones my father left for me, hirashin and rasengan. i don't like alot of things, but you don't need to know that. my dreams are to be an ambu captain and eventually the hokage... now enough about me, what about you? hmm ladies first bubble gum.'' he said to his team.
they were speechless. then, surprisingly , sasuke spoke up. '' you expect us to believe that YOU are namikaze naruto? how could a 13 year old be such an accomplished ninja?''
'' i was a jounin when i was 13, uchiha.. sasuke was it?'' kakashi spoke up.
sasuke just shut up. then sakura started to talk.
'' uh... okay... uh... im haruno sakura... i like...''she started giggling and looking at sasuke..'' my dreams are..'' then she giggled again, still looking at sasuke. ' great' naruto thought, ' a fan girl.' he looked at her agian. '' well, anything you dislike?'' he asked her. '' KIBA!... and stupid ino pig'' she shouted and huffed. ' great' he thought again, ' a divided team. kami sama what did i do to deserve this?!' he thought while looking up at the sky.
the rest of the introductions went alot like that.
''okay. well. the genin test is tomorrow, be at training ground 8 by 6 tommorow...and don't eat breakfast. you'll just puke.''
'' i'd listen to him, he speaks out of experience.. isn't that right?'' kakashi said looking down at naruto.
'' hai, ex-sensei'' then the two disappeared.
'' that BASTARD'' yelled sasuke. '' im the strongest in our age group.. how is that teme a jounin?!''
'' sasuke-kun... your so cool!'' she fawned.
the teams made their way back home, prepared to give it their all tomorrow and become full fledged shinobi of konoha.
A/N: i don't know if i should continue this one or not... so tell me in a review kay? if even one of you wants to see more chapters i'd be happy to oblige... and those of you reading my rurouni kenshin story, don't worry, i'm not going to neglect it. and if you want to start reading it, its fighting with father, a kenji story...for some reason it doesnt show up as that when you search it. so if you search to fight with father, a kenji story it'll come up with the story as well.
