AN : I admit, Uchiha Satsuki is one gorgeous girl... And I admit that I was thinking that having some unbelievable power awakened in a child's body can turn out to be... Catastrophic?

Flashback arc

Prologue

Long time ago, a woman named Otsutsuki Kaguya ate the forbidden fruit that gave her the power of chakra. Ever since then, the world have gone through many philosiphical clashes. What's the most important? Is it power or love? Through the generations the chakra of Otsutsuki Asura and Indra went through many shinobis. The last were Uchiha Madara and his ex-bestfriend Senju Hashirama.

Both clans were nearly annihilated. What would happen?


Twelve years ago, a nine tailed fox went berserk in the village hidden in the leaves. The battle was fierce and merciless. Many lost their lives that day. The fourth Hokage, Namikaze Minato, sealed the Biju into his son, and the chakra lefted from his rampage in his wife. He was hailed as the biggest hero that Konoha knew.


Eight years ago, the heir of the Uzumaki clan met his first friend. The friend was none other than the future heiress of the Uchiha clan. They were almost inseparable whenever the Uchiha patriarcch was busy. The Uzumaki clan heir was very protective of the then harmless girl...


Six years ago, the future heiress of the Uchiha clan met her ancesstor in her dream. The heir of the Uzumaki clan met his ancesstor in his dream. The Irony that they were brothers. Otsutsuki Indra have the eyes of the first sage. otsutsuki Asura have the body of the first sage. The two sons were left in conflict. Until the eldest, Indra, left a late warning his descendents from the curse of hatered and asking them to cooporate with the descendents of his brother. However, a being of pure darkness changed the tablet's contents, unaware that Indra and Asura met a young Biju, Kurama, and entrusted their wills to him.


Five years ago, the Uchiha clan was down to a very few members. The Uchiha heiress, her mother, older brother, her bother's girlfriend, her brother's best friend, Shisui's family including his wife and baby son, Kagami.


Last year, the Uchiha and Uzumaki clan heir and heiress graduated and spent a year training under Hatake Kakashi as his two apprentices...


Konohagakure

Academy rooftop

An hour after sunrise

Team 7 was on the rooftop just for the sake of the day they were officially a genin cell. Although the three, if they wanted, two are closer to jonin than anything else, the other is just left a little bit behind kage level.

Last year's graduation was written in history books. Two genins who were able to do at least one B-rank and one C-rank jutsus was unheard of. Yet it happened. However, Hyuga Neji, Rock Lee and Tenten were the only ones that are a team. Ironically, team seven and team nine was led by two rivals and very different senseis.

Hatake Kakashi. Son of Hatake Sakumo, Konoha's white fang. A prodigy like no other. A gennin at five, chunin at six and jonin at twelve. A true prodigy with a thousand jutsu to boot. Unfortunately, he've only seen what life had the worst to offer...

His two students are similar. Both have a foolish goal like no other. Both are rivals. Both have a tragic past. Both were friends for a very long time. Both want to protect the other. Both would do anything for the other, then hell or the high water.

Kakashi knew for a fact that they are bound to be a couple or kill each other. Uchiha Satsuki is known as the prodigy with no equals. Uzumaki (Senju) Naruto is known to be the hardest of workers. The one thing Kakashi is sure from is that he have one scary team...


Flashback no jutsu

Same place, one year ago

"So, unfortunately I drew the short stick. Maybe we should introduce ourselves? Give me your name, likes and dislikes, goals for the future. I'll start first. I'm Hatake Kakashi. my like, dislike and hobbies are not suited for you yet until you reach eighteen. As for dreams, I got many nightmares and I was lost in the path I took."

Satsuki and Naruto raised an eyebrow before they shrugged it off as their sensei trying to be mysterious. Satsuki spoke first.

"Uchiha Satsuki. I like my few close people. I dislike a lot of things. My hobby is training. My goal is to know the truth and punish whoever is responsible."

"Uzumaki Naruto. The same. Also, my goal is to be the strongest Kage EVER!"

Kakashi just laughed at this.

"You two don't want to help the other?"

Naruto grinned. He was finally coming at what he always wanted to confess...

"Well, you can say that. I don't want to do anything that harms her..."

Satsuki knew for a fact that Naruto have only her in his eyes. She knows because she can easily feels so.

'Itachi-nii, why you tried to scare him? He's so innocent in fact... I want to eat him!'

"I'm trying to help him with everything I got..."

Kakashi eyesmiled at this. He told Shisui and Itachi to help them back in the day. He even gave them some anonymous scrolls under the order of the Hokage.

"Unfortunately, I had enough with failling teams. I'm gonna take one as an aprentice. Who should it be?"

Naruto pointed at Satsuki as she did the same and they said in union...

"Naru!"

"Suki!"

The two glared at each other as Naruto did all but yelled at the raven haired girl..

"Your goal is more important! I don't want you to feel bad anymore!"

Satsuki simply grabbed her friend's collar...

"You need to pass! You want to be the Hokage! You need that hat, Bakanaru!"

Kakashi sighed before he eyesmiled at them...

"Now, now, children, stop fighting. I think that I should take both of you as my apprentice. But first, I want to see you tomorrow, 5 a.m. training ground three. Don't you think to hold off, we'll have a true fight!"

As he left, Satsuki and Naruto went to their favorite training ground. Four hours later, Naruto invited her to the Ogun Konoha restaurent. As they ate their dinner, Satsuki somehow was thinking that maybe they are in some deep trouble...

She had no idea...


The first day as team seven...

Around noon...

Naruto and Satsuki were lying on their back, exhausted. Their "spar" with Hatake Kakashi was the most cruel training they ever got. Shisui and Itachi, even Mikoto and Kushina were mercifull compared to the sadistic cyclope. They used EVERYTHING they had, and yet they lost and horribly for HOURS!

'He may look like a lazy ass, or on drugs, but he's really worthy to be Hokage. And the worst is that he was holding off against us!'

Naruto tried to move many times, but he was absolutely beat...

Satsuki had fell two hours before him. She may have a chakra control that rivals any eriyo-nin, and reserves that make many chunins envious, however, she was no jonin...

'Damn! All those buckets of sweat, blood and tears went down the drain!'

Kakashi stood tall. He may had many scratches and a bit winded, his flak jacket was a bit charred, he was sweating, however, he won and easily...

'Good Kami what are those monsters? I'm glad it was I who took them in. Gai would've fallen to Satsuki Genjutsu. Asuma would've fell to Naruto's Fuinjutsu. Tenzo would've been distracted by Naruto then Satsuki would hit him dead on. Unless you're one of the top ten, then you're dead. And how the hell did Naruto learned the bunshin daibakuha? Those explosive clones were so nasty that my clone's memory almost made me stagger. If I can help them learn some powerful jutsus, or have the control to learn them then it's fine by me. Hmmm... Kenjutsu would work perhaps? Maybe I should teach them the benefits of the Kushiyose? Nah, they are closer to a chunin in the worst time than genins...'

The silver haired jonin fed his two apprentices a soldier pill each. Naruto raised with a kip-up while Satsuki sat up...

"I admit, you two had already did what no other team did before you. You two worked together against me. For this, you'll pass. However, I'll make your training a living hell with twelve hours of training each and every day with only ONE day where we'll rest. As for your clan's training, well, good luck figuring it out. Tomorrow's first lesson is Kenjutsu. But enough with the little kids training regime. For now, let's go and celebrate by buying a nice sword and eating at a fancy restaurent. I'm really proud of both of you. I'll talk later about your weaknesses, and how to cover them, ok? Now then, team Kakashi, let's move our asses!"

And true to his word; he would make their lives a living hell. Although, he knew that they both know the human cheating code known as the Kage bunshin no jutsu...

But picking the swords is the priority.

So, the team walked through the village. Kakashi was leaking his killing intent to intimidate ANYONE foolish enough to touch his team, with Naruto being the most grateful. As they arrived at the weapon store, Naruto remarked something...

"Isn't this store where Tenten works?"

Kakashi eyesmiled and nodded his head. Satsuki however went to find a Chokuto. Naruto said 'Hi' to the store clerk, who surprisingly replied politely, and went to the Katanas shelf...

Soon enough, Naruto found a Katana that had a black blade. The clerk however paled...

"Wait! Don't buy this Katana! It's..."

"Cursed! And made by the Uzumaki clan!"

The clerck's eyes widdened as Satsuki, who found a Chokuto with a black sheath and hilt, went to Naruto...

"So, what are you gonna do about it?"

"I'll test it. If it kills me, the curse would've done so in the future. If not, then it's on! Please, don't interfere Suki unless you see my death!"

No sooner than that, Kakashi revealed his Sharingan...

"I'll do it, Naruto. Satsuki, I'll tell you the whole story one day, deal?"

Satsuki nodded. Kakashi's tone left no way for discussion...

Naruto unsheathed his sword and threw it up in the air as he waited to be pushed by Kakashi or the sword would be harmless to him...

But something made their eyes widden when they saw how far the sword was from cutting Naruto in two...

The Katana's tip almost hit Naruto in his head, yet it didn't even touch him and went away from him...

Kakashi, Satsuki and the clerk released a sigh they didn't knew they held in their chest. The Hatake covered his left eye...

Naruto opened his eyes as he saw the Katana sinking to the hilt in the floor and away from him by several inches...

He smirked an evil smirk...

"Heh, it seems that this sword loves me. I'll call it... Kurokiriuzu!"

Satsuki frowned before she lashed out at him, holding him by the collar, shaking him violently and she had some canines instead of teeth for some reason...

"How dare you do something this suicidal? Didn't you think how I or Kakashi-sensei, oba-san, Kaa-chan, Itachi-nii, Shisui-nii and Hokage-sama? Didn't you?"

Naruto simply nodded. Then he picked the sword up, sheathing it before he said...

"I guess that one day I might reforge it to a Nodachi, ain't that right, my black whirlpool cutter?"

Satsuki raised an eyebrow while Kakashi sighed...

"I think he agrees. Fortunately, I think I have some materials in my house... So, Suki-chan, what will you name it?"

Satsuki puffed her cheeks up before she answered...

"The grass cutting Chokuto, Kusanagi!"

Kakashi eyesmiled at the two names...

"So, tell me young man, how much will it cost me?"

The clerk waked up from his shock..

"For nothing, Hatake-san. I'll give them for free. Kurokiriuzu had killed all those who wielded it... And the Kusanagi was left here for a long time."

Kakashi sighed as he looked at him with his bored expression...

"If you change your mind, please tell me, alright? Also, do you have a trench knife that's a bit long? Kind of a combination between a trench knife, chakra blade like a certain chain smoker wieldes, and a tanto?"

"I have two made from Uzu's metal..."

Kakashi eyesmiled before he asked..

"Are they cursed too?"

The clerk nodded, much to the dismay of the three clients...


Sunday came blissfull to the two genins. The whole week Kakashi driven them to near exhaustion. Each and every day, he would teach them something useful at least... Naruto however grew up the most...

While he was still short, his strength increased tremendously. Kakashi was a true monster when it comes up to training. He doesn't know the word "moderation" one bit. One day they truelly think they're going to die, the next he's too lenient...

Naruto however was able to make him open up. He was so happy that he had his team. He had a gigantic crush on Satsuki, and viewed her as his rival. The one he needed to surpass her even if he wasn't going on full-throttle...

Although she can nag him to death sometimes, he still liked her like no other. She was the only person whome he knows for a fact that can be his equal someday. The one person that have trust in him more than anyone else. The one person who knows about everything related to his statues...

Their parents were friends. Mikoto and Kushina can be like oil and water sometime, and sometimes like bread and butter...

Kai!


Kakashi eyesmiled as he watched his two students read a book about their affinities each. That book was made by the Hokage himself. It was published when he was young, and was published in seven volumes : Fire, Earth, Wind, Water, Lightining, Yin and Yang. Kakashi had red each and every volume. He made his students exchange the books volumes, and those were the last two.

He wanted to make sure the tragedy of team seven ends up and as soon as possible. He knew that Satsuki have some hatered in her heart, and that so does Naruto. But the only way to release it was to to fight each other one day, at full throttle...

Little did he know how close that day was. If he knew...

Naruto sighed as he watched Satsuki finishing her book. He shook his head in frustration...

"I used my Sharingan if you wanted to know. Also, Wind is the hardest to control!"

Naruto raised an eyebrow. Did she just encouraged him?

"You can read the Fire volume if you want to. I actually finished the fifth part..."

"The next parts will be the hardest even for you, Naruto. I never heard of anyone without the Typhoon release Kekkei Genkai mastering the wind element..."

Naruto grinned.

"Challenge accepted, Kakashi-sensei!"

Satsuki shook her head...

'Kami he's so innocent and cute!'

She would NEVER tell ANYONE that she loved him for long years... Never!

Kakashi eyesmiled at this.

"I know you can do it, Naruto. I hope you'll be a genius of hardwork!" 'Kami know you are! Even your Kekkei Genkai demand hardwork. Praise the Kami that your secret is known to only those who are the closest to you...'

Satsuki glanced at the boy she secretly loved, she knew that he can do it. Not today, tomorrow, or in this month. But she knew he was driven by his ambition. She knew he was driven by his foolish love. How and when will she tell him and get it off her chest?

Naruto's clothes proved that he is a true shinobi. His black mask, his googles, his gloves, his boot, his happuri style hitae-ate, his black clothes, and the white fur collar...

Suki's clothes may decieve anyone else. Her white Kimino-shirt and blue pants may lead anyone to make a mistake. A very deadly last mistake...

At this, Naruto remembered how in two consecutive Saturday, they beated the hell out of team Gai...


Flashback no jutsu...

It was six monthes since the graduation of team Kakashi and Team Gai. Gai remembered exactly what his eternal rival said...


Nidaime Flashback no jutsu...

Hiruzen sighed as his last two jonin senseis entered. Gai had his trademark smile while Kakashi had his trademark bored expression...

"Kakashi-kun, Gai-kun, report!"

Hiruzen was at the end of his patience. Gai reported first...

"Hokage-sama, Team nine known from now on as team Gai pass. They are a team of Taijutsu speciallist and Bukijutsu specialist. However, I must tell you that Lee-kun have a problem which he'll be only to use Taijutsu and Bukijutsu. Hyuga-kun have a natural talent, although he limited himself to the Jyuken. Tenten-chan have a little problem that I am not able to do many ninjutsus. However her talent is in Bukijutsu. About the personnalities, Tenten-chan's idol is Tsunade-sama, Neji-kun is obssessed with fate, and Lee-kun rushes a lot with no thinking..."

Hiruzen nodded as he thanked Gai for doing his duty. Then he turned to Kakashi...

"Thank you Gai-kun. Kakashi-kun, did they pass?"

Kakashi had the happiest eyesmile he ever gave since a looooong time ago...

"Yes Hokage-sama. They passed and with flying score too. Their teamwork is amazing. They even know eachother's jutsus with just four hours of training together. Naruto would be the best shinobi one day or another. Satsuki will become the best kunoichi one day. Their taijutsu is very solid. They cover each other weaknesses completely. I don't want to know how strong they'll be if they learn the art of kenjutsu. And try to be much stronger. I guess I'll try and figure something out. Also, I'm happy they will be my cute little genins for a good time. I hope they won't shy away from hardwork that's all. Their level is at least mid chunin. I know that sound crazy, but they are. Also, the fact they can use the Kage Bunshin will help a lot in their training. This is all I have to say."

Hiruzen was just a little bit shocked. Chunin level? Straight out of the academy? Not even Minato was that strong. The only two people he knows for a fact that were like that at eleven years old were Senju Hashirama the Shodai Hokage and his rival Uchiha Madara. Ironiclly, Satsuki is a descendent of Madara, a direct descendent. Naruto related to the two first Hokage by blood. The desendent of the Shodai's brother, the Nidaime Hokage, Senju Tobirama...

"Kakashi-kun, those two may kill each other one day, you know that?"

Kakashi sighed and nodded...

"I know. I'll make sure they don't fight each other seriously. Just a friendly spar at most. But I think you know better Hokage-sama. I'll report later. Oh and by the way, six out of seven, no D-ranks..."

Hiruzen sighed at this. Of course Kakashi will find even C-ranks boring...

"Of course. Until they can do it perfectly Kakashi-kun. Just make sure they get allong just fine..."

"Hai, Hokage-sama!"

Kai!


"Kakashi! My eternal rival and best friend! How about we test our students flames of youth?"

Kakashi turned toward his best friend and asked the ONE question that made his day MUCH better...

"Huh? Sorry Gai, did you say something?"

Gai cringed and mentally cursed Kakashi's hip and cool attitude, much to the joy of team seven. True, Naruto and Satsuki have NOTHING against Gai as a person and less so as a shinobi, however, that spandex was looking completely horrendous!

"Well, we accept. However, one of us will fight twice!"

Gai smiled as he gave his 'Nice Guy' pose with his shinning teeth. Naruto mentally asked himself how he did that 'ping'?

"Well, Lee-kun, who you choose?"

Lee smiled as he looked at Satsuki.

"Sorry Satsuki-san, but I want to see for myself the power of the Uchiha clan!"

Suki raised her shoulders as she activated her Sharingan...

"Ok. Let's see!"

Gai announced the beginning of the fight, which unfortunately for Lee who used the Omote Renge (front lotus) on air. Gai however grabbed Lee by the ankle just before he slammed the earth and HARD!

Kakashi looked at Naruto...

"I knew this would be funny!"

Naruto did all but exploded in a fit of laughing...

"Kami-sama! He's denser than me!"

Kurama shook his head at the Uchiha girl's evil way of fighting...

'Good thing that wouldn't work on this brat!'

As Gai dispelled the Genjutsu, Lee asked the question..

"Genjutsu? Since when?"

Naruto chuckled as he answered...

"Since the very beginning! As soon as you looked in Suki-chan's eyes you already lost!"

'Her brother is a Genjutsu monster after all! Kami-sama that was hilarious! I'm glad to be on her team!'

Kakashi sighed at this. However, it was very funny if he was honest...

"Ok. Naruto Vs Tenten! Hajime!"

Tenten immidiately unsealed a whip.

Naruto's eyes twitched...

"What are you gonna do with this?"

"Why whipping you into submission!"

Satsuki almost yelled profanities at this. However, she calmed herself up...

"Don't you dare and lose, Naru!"

Naruto nodded as Tenten immidiately threw many weapons at Naruto who didn't even move. Each and everytime she throw something, it just missed...

Satsuki giggled softly. Naruto was a wind type. And he was a pretty good one. He was simply manipulating the wind with his chakra...

Then Tenten engaged him with her whip. Naruto however appeared behind her, his Katana unsheathed...

"Sleep!"

And he hit her with the dull side. Kakashi shook his head as he knows exactly how strong the boy was...

Neji then looked at Gai who nodded. Naruto simply said in as he gave his sword to Satsuki, much to the shock of Kakashi. Well, very subtle shock. Naruto does really trust his teammate more than just his life. The Uzumakis and the Senjus NEVER give their swords to anyone that's unworthy of their absolute trust...

"No ninjutsu! Just Taijutsu, but nothing else!"

"Fine by me! But you better surrender. Fighting a Hyuga with pure Taijutsu is a suicide. Fate already decided me as the winner..."

"Fate? You should really be a fortune teller not a shinobi."

Naruto's sarcasm pushed Neji to attack ruthlessly. However, compared to Kakashi and Satsuki, it was a very slow motion. For almost half an hour, Naruto simply dodged each and every strike as he mocked Neji relentlessly...

"This is the strongest clan of Konoha? Huh? Good for you that the best ones are nearly extinct. Strongest my ass! The most in numbers!"

Naruto almost hit Neji if it wasen't for...

"Shut up you clanless clown! Hekke Kaiten (Eight trigrams rotation)!"

A spiral made of pure chakra attacked Naruto and projected him backward. Satsuki was outraged as she yelled.

"Naruto wins! Neji cheated!"

Neji looked smuglly at her as he answered..

"I didn't break any rule. This is the power of the Hyuga clan's Taijutsu. Hakke Rokujuyonshu (Eight trigram sixty four palms)!"

Suki gripped her Chokuto's hilt as Neji almost slaughtered her teammate. If it wasn't for Kakashi, Neji's head would have fell down to the ground...

"I win. He can't move..."

Naruto however raised up like it was nothing..

"Damn! You used your chakra, huh? Let me show you how to truelly use your chakra in Taijutsu..."

No sooner than that, Neji took only three hits : A palm in his stomach, a kick in the ribs and a spinning kick to his head. Hyuga Neji fell to the ground with a few broken bones...

'Sorry about using your help, Kurama!'

"Heh! It's better than doing nothing! I think that Uchiha girl likes you a lot by the way!"

Kakashi sighed as Gai appologized to Naruto who was shocked at first then told him that it was fine...

"Worry not, Gai-sensei. It's really nothing. Just... Don't give any of them a green spandex, please?"

Satsuki was glaring a hole toward the Hyuga prodigy...

'Neji, pray to Kami-sama that you'll survive my wrath if we ever spar!'

The week after, the Uchiha girl beated Neji blue, black and red in a no hold barred spar!

Kai!


Naruto chuckled at the memory. Satsuki would NEVER admit that she liked him a lot. And that she have a protective side toward him.

While he didn't look at a gift horse's mouth, it kind of annoyed him how she act sometimes like him mother. Which was NOT a good thing..

Satsuki however had a very peacefull smile. While it was just a ghost of a smile, it was still a smile.

She remembered how she cooked for Naruto and how he ate it all despite the fact that it was extremely spicy. She remembered how his face lit up and litteraly spitted fire and then he gulped a gallon of water as steam escaped his mouth and his head deflated.

She remembered how Kakashi punished them and how he ended up sleeping outside. How she carried him home and kissed his cheek. How adorable he was...

She remembered how he defended her from some bullies. How he told her that she have an incredible strength and power lying dormant inside her.

She remembered how he was the only one who stood by her side when she pushed everyone else away from her. How he does hold off against her ticked her off, yet she held no true grudge as he told her his true reason : He never wanted her to look bad.

She fell in love with her first friend. Fate does exist she mused. How else would he stay by her side to this day?

She also remembered how he told her EVERYTHING about himself. How his father was the Yondaime. How the Kyubi was innocent. How Kurama is a sentient and an extremely intelligent being, smarter than any human and with more experience than anyone else...

She was enraged. She was livid how the village treated the kindest and the most innocent boy in her class like that. She was about to vow to destroy Konoha one day before he stopped her, saying that he doesn't blame his father, and that the fox is much smarter than the villagers...

She became cold and distant to almost everyone else. Shisui at least wasn't one of them and considered Naruto his brother in everything but blood. Naruto told her his TRUE goal in life : To make everyone remember how his father wasn't as half badass than him.

She told him everything. How Itachi saved her and her mother from the insanity that was her father. How she was still terrified how her clan fell to a single man. She told him that all she wants is to know the truth and kill whoever responsible for that...

She even told him about the curse of hatered..

"I swear that I will help you! I don't care if you'll be an angel or a devil, I'll follow you even to the bottom of hell itself! Just never leave me!"

Those words were the kindest and sincerest she ever heard from anyone in her short life. She became MUCH more motivated since that day. He may was very innocent and kind that day, but that innocence and kindness was her light. The light that chased all the darkness away.

Now however, the raven haired and the blond haired were waiting for Kakashi to tell them anything...

"Well, since today we have an exceptionally day off, why don't you two go to the academy? The classroom to wait is still the same."

Naruto and Satsuki nodded as they went down. kakashi eyesmiled at this...

"Sensei, your son have choosen very wisely. If the one he loves does grow up like your friend did, he'll be the luckiest man by then!"


Naruto and Satsuki went to Kushina's house, which was the closest to the academy. Not that Mikoto's house was a few yards further. As they both ate their breakfeast, Naruto cringed as he remembered their classmates...

"Suki-chan, please, I beg you, don't kill or hurt anyone that badmouthes me."

Satsuki sighed in annoyance. She puffed her cheeks, pouted and frowned before she nodded.

"Thank you. By the way, Suki-chan, your eye color is different from every Uchiha I know."

"That's a bad thing?"

"No. I mean they are black but with the faintest tint of blue. I would say that they are the most beautiful eyes I ever seen, but your Sharingan is also intimidating I must admit..."

Little did Naruto know that he just said the BEST compliment to any Uchiha lady...


The academy

Everyone was shocked as Naruto and Satsuki sat beside each other. Naruto was reading a book, had his forehead protector on, but his googles were above the Konoha insigna. Satsuki was looking at the window in a distant manner. Shikamaru was shocked to see his childhood friend again...

"Naruto? Aren't you on a mission or something?"

Naruto simply eyesmiled like his sensei always does...

"Nah. A very rare day off!"

The Nara simply went to sleep like he always does. Before he did however said two things.

"I hope you two have became stronger. I would've done the same if it wasen't so troublesome..."

Then Kiba came. He simply laughed at Naruto who then verbally stabbed him..

"Heh, the dead-last have decided to see how we graduate. Even that Uchiha wasted her life away!"

"Says the mutt that was stuck in a well for a year!"

Hinata then came and was kind of shocked to see Naruto and Satsuki at the same table yet they didn't glare at or insulted each other.

"Ohayo!"

Surprisingly, both replied at the same time..

"Ohayo!"

"Yo!"

Satsuki sweatdropped at this. Naruto is soooo like the mostly lazy cyclope...

'I really need to talk to Kakashi-sensei!'

Then one by one, the whole class was full. Haruno Sakura had almost insulted Naruto only for the blond to glare at her, which definitely terrified her as a pair of blue slitted eyes glared into her soul to scram or else...

'Too bad there is no one who'll be fit in our team. Sakura may have a fine control, but I might kill her if she think of putting her hands on Naru! I guess we'll make a calamity one day!'

Satsuki started to call him Naru a few monthes after they became a team. He was the only person who ever got a nickname from her...

Soon enough, Iruka entered the classroom. However, he was shocked to see the two who saved his life from Mizuki visit him...

"Iruka-sensei! Kami-sama I missed seeing you around!"

"Long time no see, Iruka-sensei!"

Before the scarred chunin says anyword, Satsuki shook his hand while Naruto almost broke a few of his ribs thanks to his bearhug...

"Naruto, ouch! Stop!"

"Sorry sensei! I'm so happy to see you again! Ichiraku Ramen?"

'Really? Is he going to hold the damn candle or what?'

"Ok. Naruto, Satsuki, wait outside, please."

"Oki doki, sensei-man!"

"See you around!"

Choji stopped munching, Shikamaru was paying full attention, Ino and Sakura stopped bickering, Akamaru stopped barking, Shino raised both eyebrow, and Hinata had a shocked expression...

Then all hell broke loose as the whole class yelled...

"WHAT THE HELL?"

Iruka looked at his two ex-students leave and saw all his impending-to-be-ex-students and used his Oni Atama no jutsu (Demon head jutsu)...

"Shut the hell up! Those two are true ninjas!"

Outside Naruto and Satsuki chuckled and giggled respectively as they heard the rukus. It was the same thing like always...

As Iruka finished his speech, he went outside. Naruto and Satsuki asked him about the clan heirs and how would it end, who are senseis and such...

"Team eight and ten would definitely pass. Sakura may go to the hospital, or teach at the academy, or both..."

Naruto nodded to Iruka to continue. Suki however saw the Umino's grim face. She gave Naruto a look that made him understand..

"And to think that one of Konoha's strongest shinobis is clanless? Heh, guess I'll tell Jiichan to upgrade the academy's standard I guess?"

Satsuki sighed. She knew that there would be something that will make Iruka cringe. Such as a square rock that have holes...

Normally, Naruto would chide Konohamaru at a big brotherly tone. She wasn't as sweet. She simply kicked the cardboard away from them, revealing the three children...

"If you have time stalking us, then you must have time to train!"

"But Satsuki-neechan, we want you and Naruto-niichan to play ninja with us kore!"

Naruto sighed at this...

"Saru, you have an uncle who's a jonin, right? He can play ninja better than the two of us. We could've done so last year, but I'm afraid that I can't now. However, if you graduate before we make jonin, we'll help you out. But if that comes after, I don't know if I can take a team or not..."

"I can back him up!"

Konohamaru was kind of angry at that. He almost shouted at them if Moegi and Udon didn't cover his mouth. Naruto eyesmiled at this.

"You guys will be a good team one day. Konohamaru, you need to chill sometimes. Moegi, Udon, you two need to train sometimes. Booksmart alone isn't enough. I hope to see you in the academy sometimes... If I'm allowed to teach that's it!"

Satsuki simply smiled a ghost of a smile as Naruto handled the situation like a true teacher...

'You're really good with children. Good for you. One day you'll really need it!'

"Suki-chan, shall we catch Iruka-sensei?"

The almost stoic Uchiha nodded her head as the two went to Ichiraku...


Two monthes have passed. Kakashi's training regime was almost inhuman, but the two progressed more than fine. However, as they were finally resting after a week with no resting day, a courier hawk landed near them. Kakashi red the note before he palmed his face...

"Team Kakashi, to Nami no Kuni! Team ten might face a serious problem if we don't!"


AN : That's it everybody. Aj does have many problems in real life. If you're going to just flame me, please don't! I don't want to tell you that I'm a nice person and lie to you. Well, one last thing, like it, review. Don't like it don't. So, Naruto and Suki will be amazingly strong. Like wickedly strong...

Next time : The waves and the back up...
