I can't believe I'm back in the village hidden in the leaves. It has been so long since I was last here. I wonder if anyone will recognize me at all. I should get going to my new apartment.

Tomorrow's the big day. I get assigned to a team, and I'm a bit afraid. I should likely be getting ready to get to sleep. *someone knocks on the door* Ugh, just as I'm about to go to sleep too. I walk to the door and open it. I look up to see Shikamaru. "what are you doing here so late?" I ask.

"I was sent to give you this" he said as he handed me the leaf headband.

"I didn't know the leaf villiage gave them out so willingly."

"We don't, but the Hokage knows of you and your power. Besides you were almost a Mizukage of the mist villiage once."

"Yeah, well lets just say they like they're Mizukages to be from they're villiage, not from the leaf villiage. They werent to happy when they found out I wasn't from there."

"In any means, you start tomorrow. You'll visit the Hokage first thing in the morning and you'll be assigned with a team. If you're lucky you'll be able to train with your new team before you go on a mission."

"Just give me the headband."

"Why did I have to be here? This is such a drag. Here." Shikamaru said handing me my new headband. A scilence falls upon us, Shikamaru turns around and starts to head back to wherever he had come from. I closed the door and got changed for bed. I went under the warm colours, turned off the light, and let my head fall upon my pillow. Then a blanket of darkness fell upon me as I fell into a deep sleep.

Shut up, shut up, shut up, SHUT UP! It's way to early! I'll just turn off my alarm, and sleep for five more minutes.

C.r.a.p! What time is it! I grab my clock, it's already 7:00 am! I'm going to be late for my first day! I can't be late! Where are my clothes! Darn I didn't unpack anything for today!

"Good you're here." Said the hokage.

"I'm sorry I'm late, I wasn't able to find what I needed for today due to the recent move. I assure you I won't make a habit of it."

"It's quite alright, and knowing you I'm sure you won't."

"Thank you."

"Now on to the matter of your new teamates, I assume you are aquented with Shikamaru."

"I am."

"What about Ino, and Choji"

"No, I'm afraid I haven't. The last time I had seen them was the last time I was in the leaf village, which was a long time ago."

"In any means, you will be assigned to their team."

"If you don't mind me asking, why them?"

"Because they need someone who has experence with different situations, ones they aren't use too. The ones you have gone on mulitiple times."

"Very well but there must be someone more qulitified than I?"

"Not at the moment. So are you up to being apart of this team?"

"If I say no you'll still make me be apart of that team won't you?"

"That's right."

"Then I guess I have nothing wrong with being apart of that team."

"Good, they don't currently have any missions, so you will meet up with them and train."

"Very well, has this order been told to them yet?"

"No, not yet, but soon they will."

"I'll be on my way then." I say, then bow. I head to the door and open it to see Ino, and Choji in a stance that suggests they had been trying to listen in on the conversation.

"Hey there." Shikamaru said to me.

"Wait a second! You know her Shikamaru?" Ino asked.

"Sort of."

"How sort of?" Ino asked.

"I met her yesterday." He said and brushed passed Ino and Choji.

"So she's the reason you weren't able to come to the new steak house yesterday?" Choji asked

"Yup. Enough questions, your keeping the Hokage waiting, and we all know that's never good"

"I heard that." Said the Hokage. Ino and Choji entred the room. I stayed by to see the reaction of the events that were about to unfold. I can tell both Ino and Choji don't trust me, and they don't want me getting in the way.

"WHAT!" I heard the three of them yell.

"But there must be someone else! Anyone but her!" I heard Ino say. What a great strat to things are turning out to be.

"Theres no way she'll be a good addention to the team!" Shikamaru said.

"This is my decision and it's finial!" the Hokage yelled. I should likely go. I don't want to get caught standing here when they get out. But I still want to hear what they want to say about me without knowing my power. So I'll just plant a listening devise and leave.

It's a nice day so I should go to the forest to train. After all I still need to prove myself to my new 'teammates' even though I know they hate me right now. I'll have to prove them wrong. It's always been like this when I think about it. When my parents never returned from a mission I've been training. Trying to find them. Even if I know it's hopeless. They're likely already dead.

The devise I left behind is picking up some feedback. Ino isn't happy at all. Shikamaru doesn't like the decision but is tolerating it. Choji is the only one who hasn't really spoken a word at all. They've made the Hokage very mad in their attempts to somehow get me off the team. The door opeans. They've walked out of the room from what I can hear. The door closes behind one of them.

"Why does she have to join our team?" Ino askes annoyed

"The Hokage says she'll have something to bring to the table that could benefit us." Choji says

"In any means, we're going to have to test her to see if she is really worthy, or even to see if she has enough talent," Shikamaru says "We'll get the help from Naruto, and others."

"Can't we just test her ourselves?" Ino askes.

"This will be a test. A test to see if she is good when it comes to teamwork." He says. They start to walk. Their steps get further and further away. Until I can no longer hear them. And I wish I hadn't. Because now I have to pretend like I don't know anything. I should look up this Naruto charater, see what his skills are. I can't trust anyone here. But I should expect that. Seeing as it's happened so many times in the past.
