Hello hello, I'm Le Duele La Cabeza, and no, I'm not Hispanic! I'm perfectly ginger in every way! Ain't that great?
Well you don't have to like gingers to like this story, (well you do... cause we're just so lovable!) you just have to like the idea of Naruto teaching his own genin team!
Disclaimer: this is the only one I'll do so yeah. LE DUELE LA CABEZA DOES NOT OWN NARUTO, NEVER WILL OWN NARUTO, AND ONLY OWNS HER CHARACTERS THAT SPROUTED UP IN THE CONFINES OF HER GINGER MIND.
So, this is the prologue, and imagine that there is chapter art... oooh. Chapter art is, adult Naruto sitting with an ANBU mask on the right side of his head as he grins his foxy grin. In the background is Kakashi with his back to us wearing the Hokage shroud.
Naruto has been through each stage of being a ninja, a student, a genin (for a long while), a chuunin (after taking it twice), a jonin, and for a while, an ANBU. He'd gone through those stages religiously, in hopes of becoming the Hokage one day, having his face up there with Granny Tsunade's, Old Man Third, his father's, and now even Kakashi-Sensei's. His dream was so close to being fulfilled, he could practically taste it.
The only thing Naruto hadn't done yet was lead a new team of genin, and he was pretty sure that was what Kakashi-Sensei called him and the others in to do. He, along with Kiba, Shikamaru, Ino, Shino, and Lee, were standing before the rokudaime waiting for information on their new teams. There were other jonin there too, just none Naruto would consider his friend like the other five what with them being part of the Konoha Eleven.
Kakashi stared at the ten jonin before him, the lower have of his face hidden behind his anbu mask. His visible eye appeared to be reading an worn orange book, though he was actually watching the ten jonin before him. He appraised his choices for team leaders, his vision stopping at the center of the pack, on Naruto Uzumaki. Closing his book, Kakashi stood, the jonin stood up a little straighter in response, waiting for instructions.
"As you ten know, you have been chosen to become possible team leaders to this year's new genin graduates. A few of you know which have graduated this year and have expressed interest in leading certain genin. Hinata-san and Chouji-san have compiled the teams into who would help each other most, your teams are as followed," Kakashi said as he lifted the files. He picked up the first three folders, and tossed them to Lee.
"Team one: Rock Lee, genin: Mizushima Hana, Sarutobi Taka, and Hyuuga Michiru."
"Hai! Rokudaime-sama! I will teach them in the ways of the flames of youth!" Lee said, saluting Kakashi after catching the files. Kakashi arched an unseen eyebrow at the zealous jonin that looked so much like Guy, hopefully none of his genin would take on the green spandex as well. Kakashi picked up the next three files, tossing them to Ino.
"Team two: Yamanaka Ino, genin: Shiranui Aoi, Kamizuki Eri, and Hagane Sho."
"Hai!" Ino said, catching her files before they fell to the floor. Kakashi repeated the process of throwing the teams three files as he stated the genin's names.
"Team three: Hayate Tatsuka, genin: Nakara Shosuke, Kuromaki Rinji, and Reo Kanon."
"Hai."
"Team four: Ebisu Shima, genin: Tsuki Sanji, Hoenmaru Riku, and Aburame Yuzuya."
"Hai, Rokudaime-sama!"
"Team five: Inuzuka Kiba, genin: Katakura Kisa, Kai Kazu, and Kurosaki Kippei."
Kiba arched a furry eyebrow at his genin, there was a slight pattern in names. "Hai," he said, catching the files. Akamaru beside him barked his affirmation as well.
"Team six: Kanden Kosuke, genin: Asakura Usui, Sakura Mira, and Fuji Hirota."
"Hai!"
"Team seven: Uzumaki Naruto, genin: Uzuki Mitsuki, Hatake Obito, Yamashiro Haru."
Naruto grinned as he caught the files, he got his sensei's kid. He'd seen the kid around town, same spiky silvery hair as his dad. Though thankfully, as noted by Hinata, he had a tendency for being on time rather than several hours later. "Hai!" he declared, grinning his infamous grin.
"Team eight: Aburame Shino, genin: Namiashi Karin, Morino Gen, Ebisu Hikaru."
Shino nodded once, catching his files easily before returning to his ever stoic position.
"Team nine: Saiga Hatsuki, genin: Toriichi Koga, Hanamataro Kanata, Yoshino Kikyo."
"Hai!"
"Team ten: Nara Shikamaru, genin: Yuhi Asuka, Aiba Shinji, Shirota Tatsuki."
Shikamaru breathed an unnoticeable sigh of relief. He was able to keep his promise to Kurenai, he was assigned to teach Asuka, Asuma's daughter. She was still young, only nine, but she had begged both her mother and Shikamaru to let her take the graduation exam. With her giant brown eyes, Shikamaru couldn't really say no to her. He knew she was good, he trained her himself, and Shikamaru made her swear that if she passed, she wouldn't rely on her teammates to do things. Asuka had looked offended at that, and threatened to smack Shikamaru upside the head.
"Hai, Rokudaime-sama," he said, catching the files.
"You meet your teams tomorrow, I suggest you study up on them, make sure their prepared to pass the next portion. Now, dismissed," Kakashi said, smiling. All ten jounin called in unison "Hai!" before leaving the Hokage to his perverted book.
So how was that for a prologue? Naruto's team gets introduced next, and I quite like them already : D.
LOVE YOU LOVEBUCKETS!
