Trotting through the streets of Kohona, Naruto had a huge grin on his face. Today was the day he would be assigned teammates, and then he would be taking the jounin exams. It sucks that Sakura-chan is not going to be participating though Naruto thought thinking back to yesterday evening.

"It's okay Naruto. You can take it. I want to train with Tsunade-same more before I try to become a jounin." Sakura said to a distraught Naruto.
"But Saku-" But he was cut off before he could even finish his sentence.
"I have made up my mind Naruto, I'm not going to do it. I will participate next year." Sakura said flatly, hoping she could end the conversation right now.
"Fine." Naruto said, as he didn't feel like messing with an irritated Sakura at the moment anyway.

Caught up in his own thoughts Naruto hadn't even realized that he had arrived at the office Hokage's office door.
In front of him were to ANBU guards, one had messy brown hair, and the other's face was hidden behind a cat ANBU mask. Naruto saw the brown-haired one open his mouth to speak.
"Naruto-san, Tsunade-sama and your teammates are waiting for you." The man said opening the door for Naruto to head in.
"Alright thank you." he replied back as he made his way though the doors.
As he entered the office Naruto noticed two things.
1: Ino Yamanaka was sitting in a chair to his left
2: Tenten Hitoma was sitting in a chair to his right.
Fixing his gaze to the middle of the room he saw Tsunade. "These are my teammates baa-chan?" he asked not taking notice that a sour look had graced her features for him calling her old.
"Yes Naruto, Ino and Tenten will be your teammates for the exam. Take a seat and I will explain what all is in store for you."
Taking a seat in-between the two girls Naruto sighed, this is going to be a long week.
