Chapter 1

Disclaimer: Naruto is owned by Kishimoto

I really disliked how I wrote my rewrite. So I rewrote the rewrite. Part one will be focus on more team building.

still looking for a beta, after all those years

Warning: bad grammar, not cannon at all. English is my second language. Naruto characters are oocs

Hinata Hyuuga, a 12-year-old girl sighed. She was wearing cream colored hooded jacket, navy blue pants. Her white almost lavender eyes stared at the scene in front of her with wonder. She shook her short dark blue hair with the front in a chin length in disappointment. They were supposed to be future kunoichis yet…

"SASUKE-KUN"

She wanted to bang her head on her seat. "H-Hinata-chan?" asked her shy worried friend next to her. Hinata looked up and saw her longtime friend: Naruto Uzumaki. Naruto was a shy blonde boy with bright blue eyes. He was wearing an orange jumpsuit and had mid length blond hair with was tide in a loose ponytail. "Naruto," she stared at her friend "they" she pointed to the group of girls surrounding a boy. The last Uchiha: Sasuke Uchiha. "are supposed to be kunoichis but they act like fangirls" she told him. She told a deep breathe "I hope none of them are in my team" she finished. Naruto had a sweat drop.

"H-Hinata-chan, your too c-cruel" Naruto told her. She was about to reply when they heard a "FIRST". They turned around to see two girls. One with pink hair and the other with blond. Sakura Haruno and Ino Yamanaka. "great more fangirls" Hinata sighed in defeat. She hoped to Kami that none of them are in her team. "I'm taking a nap" she told him. "wake me up, when Iruka-sensei comes" before Naruto can reply; she went to sleep. "H-Hinata-chan, your t-the one to t-talk. Y-your also s-still the same" He whispered to himself.

Iruka Umino was a proud teacher. All his students are going to be genins including one his favorite student, Naruto. After all the studying and training he put Naruto to, he was glad that he graduated. Even though he had to threat his co-teacher for Naruto to pass. He was happy. Right now, he was pissed. "They won't work, Hokage-sama" he told the Third. An old man with a pipe looked at him.

"explain"

"Team 7: Naruto is too shy and don't want to deal with Sasuke and Sakura's crap. Sakura wont care about training only Sasuke. Sasuke would only want revenge" The Third nodded his head.

"and team 9?"

"Our enemies already know about the Ino-Shika-Cho. Another one would be pointless"

"maybe you are right, Iruka" He told the chunin who smiled at the praised. "and team 8?"

"Hinata would kill Kiba if she had the chance," Iruka started. The third mentally kick himself for forgetting that. The Inuzuka had crush on Naruto, Hinata best friend, and Hinata was not on that ship. It was not like the girl liked Inuzuka, but it was because the Inuzuka made Naruto cried when they were young. Something the girl had not forgotten. "And Shino and Kiba would mostly try to kill each other" Iruka finished. The third sighed in defeat. He was getting old for this. The third put his pipe down and eyed Iruka. "Want to you suggest then?" he asked the chunin. Iruka was bewildered.

"m-me?"

"yes, they are your students"

The day was going to slow for Naruto. The shy boy was playing with his forehead protector that was around his neck. He was bored! Hinata was snoring and would not wake up. He examined the room. All the clan head children would most likely become genins. The rest of the citizens excluding him, and Sakura would not pass. Naruto knew that there is another test that almost every student fails and comes back to the academy. Naruto might be considered stupid to Mizuki-sensei, but he was smart enough to know that last years and the year before that passing students came back to the academy. Still in his thought he heard "Kit, Iruka is here" he smiled

"thanks, Kyuu-chan" he told the voice

"…I hate you, kit" the voice replied. His grin got larger.

"love you too" Naruto met the beast that was sealed inside of him when he was four. After months of talking to him. He realized that the Kyuubi was not bad. He had a family of his own that he wanted to see again. Naruto could understand the fox's hatred for the Uchiha clan. He also had a dislike for the Uchiha clan, with what Kurama told and showed him. Naruto took a deep breathe. He hated doing this, but it was the only way to wake Hinata-chan up. "HINATA-CHAN! IRUKA-SENSEI IS H-HERE!" He shouted with all his strength. Hinata slowly got up

"thanks Naruto" she yawned. Hinata blinked when she saw the entire class stare at her. "What?" she asked them. She turned to Naruto who had fainted. She blinked once. Then twice. "NOT AGAIN. NARUTO"

Iruka shook his head. Hinata and Naruto were still the same. A smile formed on his lips. He was truly going to miss these kids. He waited until Hinata had successful got Naruto to wake up. He cleared his throat. "Congratulations to all of you" He told them "I hope your journey is successfully as a shinobi and kunoichi of Konohagakure" He observed the room. Some students were frightened others were excited. Yet some were bored. "Now for team 1…." He started

Naruto was trying to pay attention but Hinata's aura of pure excitement was blindly him. "team 7 would be Kiba Inuzuka" Naruto heard a yeah and a bark "Sakura Haruno" two groaned was heard "and Sasuke Uchiha" Naruto had to cover his ear when Sakura shouted in joy. He felt bad for Kiba.

"p-poor Kiba-kun" he whispered to Hinata. Hinata did feel bad for the dog boy, yet she was happy that he was not on Naruto's team.

"Your sensei is Kakashi Hatake. Now team 8 would be Choji Akimichi, Ino Yamanaka and Hinata Hyuuga. Your sensei is Kurenai Yuhi" Hinata was excited Choji was a headworker and he actually train, while her other teammate. Hinata stared at Ino, who stared back with fear. "H-Hinata-chan, please b-be nice" Naruto begged her. He was sad that he wasn't on her team but killing a teammate is no good. Hinata turned and smiled at her friend. "don't worry Naruto. I will" she told him. Naruto shivered in fear. That smiled. He silently wishes Ino luck. "team 9 is still active. Now team 10 Naruto Uzumaki, Shino Aburame and Shikamaru Nara. Your sensei is Asuma Sarutobi. Good luck to all of you" He finished and walked out of the room.

"NOOOOO" everybody turned to Kiba "I'm with a fangirl and an emo" he shouted. His dog Akamaru barked in support. Sakura got mad.

"you're the weakest link, dog breathe" She told him. Kiba ignored her.

"does anyone want to trade with me?" he asked. When no one answered "Shikamaru?" The Nara got up and yawned

"nah, don't want to deal with that screech every day. It would be too troublesome." He told Kiba. "Any way team 9, lets met at the roof" the rest of the class look at him with confusion. He muttered a troublesome "I guess it would be a good idea if we met are teammates and talk with them. So, when the senseis get here, we can at least already know something about each other."

"That's an excellent idea Shikamaru" Hinata praising the Nara "team 8, met at the ramen stand" she told her teammates.

"why a ramen stand?" Ino asked

"Ramen!" Choji said excitedly

"Ino, because majority rule. Now that's go" She got up and sprint to her favorite place.

"Wait up" Ino and Choji ran after her. While every other team was doing the same thing expect team 7. Naruto was panicking. This was the first time without Hinata by his side. Were his teammates nice? Were they going to accept him? He was overthinking all the possibilities that could happen. When he felt someone else's chakra on him. Naruto broke out of his panic state and observed a bug. That could only belong to Shino Aburame. He looked down and saw that both of his teammates were waiting for him. Naruto got up and slowly walked towards them. All three of them were walking in silent towards the roof. When they got there, they sat down. Shikamaru yawned and watched the clouds. Shino was feeding his insects and Naruto was poking his fingers together. He was nervous. "so" Shikamaru said

"s-so?" Naruto stuttered

"What do you mean by so, Shikamaru-san?" Shino asked

"what are you guys like? I never hanged out with you two, so I don't know anything at all about you two" Shikamaru stated. In truth he was still confuse on why they didn't remake the Ino-Shika-Cho with him, Choji and Ino. He wasn't mad, but now it was more work and training. Something that he was deeply happy. Shikamaru wanted to prove to people that he was more than a Nara. Now was the perfect time. Shino adjected his black glasses. "While my name is Shino Aburame. I like bugs and my family and hate people who think that bugs are gross. My dream is to be a better clan leader then my dad" Shino told them.

"b-butterflies are c-cool" Naruto shy told him. Shino raised his eyebrow at his teammate. Naruto thinking that he said something wrong got more terrified. Sensing the fear in his shy teammate, Shino added "thank you Naruto-san butterflies are cool" Naruto calmed down a bit and smiled at Shino.

"What about you Naruto?" Shikamaru asked. He realized that Naruto without Hinata was petrified. He known that the boy was shy, but why was he afraid of them? They were his teammates. Naruto took a deep breathe. "My n-name is Naruto Uzumaki. I like t-the Hyuuga clan, ramen and g-gardening. I d-dislike most of the v-villagers because of how t-they treat me. A-and my dream is…" Naruto paused for a moment. "to r-reunite with the o-other eight"

"Other eight?" Shikamaru asked. Naruto was quiet. Then nodded. Knowing that his shy teammate won't tell him. He told them

"names Shikamaru Nara. My likes are sleep, cloud watching, playing shogi and family. I dislike loud and troublesome people. I don't have a clue of what my dream is right now"

"don't have a clue?" Shino asked him

"yeah, I'm only 12 years old. I have a long time to think about my dream" he replied.

"t-that's an a-awesome way of t-thinking things, Shikamaru-kun. V-very not N-Nara like" Naruto said. This was the first Nara that did not know what his dream was. Most Naras dream about having two kids and living their lives as normal as possible. Shikamaru stared at him "not Nara like?" he asked. Naruto gulped a bit then replied "most of the Naras I have s-seen dream about h-having to kids and l-living as n-normal as possible. T-that fact you d-didn't say that m-means you have big d-dreams for y-yourself" Shikamaru continued to stare at him.

"it means your different Shikamaru-san. That's pretty good in my book" Shino added his two cents. Shikamaru looked at Shino then back at Naruto.

"thanks" he said in confusion. They are not going to question him on why his different? Maybe he likes his teammates already.

"umm S-Shino-kun" Shino faced Naruto. He was scared but continued "do you k-know any g-good insect t-that would h-help my garden grows?" Shino did not look like it on the outside, but on the inside, he was happy that someone was talking to him about insects. The benefit of insects. "while Naruto-san have you tried some spiders?"

"spiders?"

"yes, they eat thrips. That could help you" Shikamaru smiled as he watched them talking about Naruto's garden. He even put in a few advices. The team talked starting from garden to different bugs, to weapons as they learned that each of them wants to fight with one but thinks they can't do it. "I really want a katana" Shino told his teammates "it would be cool"

"A b-battle fan f-for me" Naruto said

"why a battle fan?" Shikamaru asked

"as Shino-kun s-stated it would be c-cool" he replied. The more they talk. The less scared Naruto become. "what a-about you S-Shikamaru-kun?" Shikamaru thought for minute

"Kunis" the rest of his team looked at him "there simple and plentiful" he told them. Only to have a chuckling Naruto and Shino. "What?" he demands

"only you would say that Shikamaru-san" Shino replied. Shikamaru blushed in embarrassment.

"troublesome teammates" he muttered. They continued their talks with shogi. Something that Naruto never heard of and the team watched as Shikamaru went into details of how to play it. This went on until they felt they are being watch. One of the tree branches rustled. They quickly got up and took out their Kunis "who's there?" Shikamaru asked.

"you, kiddos are very troublesome in deed" the voice said walking near them revealing a young man in his late twenties. He was tall with olive skin and brown eyes He had short black spiking hair with a beard. He was wearing standard Konoha ninja uniform with the sleeves rolled up half way, a flak jacket and a regular shinobi sandals and forehead protector. He was also wearing a sash with the kanji "Fire" marked on it around his waist. A pair of black bangles and bandages wrapped around the arms of his sleeves. He was holding a cigarette in his hand. "Who are you?" Shino asked. The man just laughed.

"Whose bright idea was it for the students to know their teammates and leave the classroom?" he asked ignoring Shino's question. Team 10 turned to Shikamaru, who muttered a troublesome. "me" Shikamaru answered. The man sighed and lit his cigarette. "well troublesome kiddos, I'm your sensei Asuma Sarutobi"

My kitchen

Naruto was reading his cookbook. "so if I put paprika on it..." his train of thoughts were interrupted by Hinata storming in.

"NARUTO! YO- OH ARE YOU COOKING?" She half asked half demanded at Naruto who leap under the kitchen sink when she barged in.

"H-Hinata-chan. C-can you please s-stop doing that!" Naruto told her getting out of his hiding spot. Hinata nervously laughed

"sorry" she went to where his at. "what are you cooking?"

"c-curry. C-Chicken curry" he answered her. Hinata watched as her friend go over the directions on his cookbook. Bored she took charge

"Naruto. You know there is an easier way to cook curry" she told him. Naruto glanced at her.

"r-really"

"Yup all you have to do is..." she started to help her friend then...BOOM

"MY KITCHEN!" Hiashi Hyuuga screamed in horror at the scene in front of him. He immediately turned to the two suspects. Who were sweating bullets. "WHO DID THIS!?"

"H-Hinata-chan" Naruto answered

"NARUTO. We were suppose to be in this together" Hinata said looking at her dad with fear

"H-Hinata-chan. I love you as a s-sister, but y-you burned my curry" He told her. Hiashi sighed and shook his head

"Hinata, what do I always tell you?" he asked his daughter. Hinata looked down in embarrassment

"Don't go in the kitchen, if you can't cook" she replied

"Good you remembered. Your grounded" then he left

"DAAAD!" she screamed and ran after him. Naruto shook his head in disappointment. He should of known not to take Hinata's cooking advised.

please review!

I'm trying to do a chapter every week on Thursday. I decided to rewrite my rewrite. I didn't like it and wanted to show the team as a family first then to write the Mist arc. I already deleted both of the stories so this is the only story.

Will really love to get a beta. I can't do grammar to save my life, so it will help me greatly. THANKS!
