Why yes, I did reload this as an independent story from Junkdrawer! I enjoy writing this one so I figured I would let it be on its own.

Enjoy and review!

"Team Seven: Uzumaki Naruto," said blonde swiveled his eyes to land on his academic instructor. He hoped that whoever his teammates were, they didn't hold him back. He wouldn't stand for any weaklings on his team.

"…Uchiha Sasuke," Sasuke couldn't believe it. They actually had the gull to put him on the same team as that teme Uzumaki. He couldn't stand the other boy who thought he was so much better than everyone else. So what if he was the son of the stupid fourth Hokage? Well, Sasuke contemplated with a smirk, at least he could still get a cute girl, like Ino or Hinata on his team. He could flirt with her and just ignore Uzumaki.

"…and Haruno Sakura." A stiff silence filled the air as both boys blanched at this new development. A couple students snickered while others like Aburame Shino made a snide remark. Of course they would be the ones stuck with strange Haruno girl. She was weird and no one in class really liked her. She never seemed to talk and always had her longish bangs in her eyes.

The girl in question just stared almost dreamily out the window completely ignoring what was going on around her. She supposed it wouldn't be too bad to be teamed up with them as long as she could just ignore anything rude they said or did. She was pretty good at it too however, Sakura knew that deep in her heart, she hoped they got along and liked her.

As the rest of the teams were called out, Sakura started to get nervous about her teammates. Should she be the one to initiate communication? Or should she just ignore them? No then they would definitely hate her, besides these would be the people she would be working with for quite some time. She should at the very least try to be friendly towards them.

Meanwhile, Saskue was cursing his horrible luck in teammates. How could he be so unlucky? He knew it was a bad day as soon as he got out of bed that morning and tripped down the stairs. Then there happened to be no hot water left so he nearly froze to death and by the time he made it to breakfast, his mother said there weren't any tomatoes left. No tomatoes left! He must have pissed on a god's grave in a passed life because he had no idea what he had done to deserve this torture. Unconsciously, Sasuke clenched his hands and let out a whine of misery.

Naruto, who had noticed the small noise, glanced at the dark haired boy, made a tching sound, and went right back to glaring at the teacher. The Uchiha was an idiot. Could he not control his own emotions? Whatever, the kid was weak anyway. He bet even that Haruno weirdo could beat the fool. Speaking of the Haruno weirdo, he glanced at her out of the corner of his eyes. Naruto didn't know much about her except that everyone seemed to dislike her greatly and that she was always staring off into space like an airhead. Right now she was doing just that. Naruto had to stop himself from sighing tiredly. This was going to be a long day. Suddenly he thought of something. If these were his teammates, what would his sensei end up being like. Thinking of all the possible outcomes made him scowl and glare even harder at the teacher. It may have not been his fault, but damn it Naruto wanted to kill him anyway!

To say she was fine was a complete lie. Sakura was out right scared now and had no idea what to do. After the teacher announced the teams, he dismissed them all to lunch and told them to come back an hour later. Everyone started to get up and she noticed that Naruto was already on his way to the door and that Sasuke was trying to woe Hinata into going to lunch with him. Would they even want to talk to her if she approached them? Struggling to decide on what to do, she finally made up her mind to see if Naruto wanted to eat with her seeing as Sasuke was busy being rejected by Hinata.

She hurried to beat him to the door and when she got there she turned to see him a few steps behind her. He looked impatient to leave and seemed to be scowling at everyone. Instantly feeling intimidated, she reverted into herself and made her face blank before making a quick getaway.

When she had returned to the class room, teachers were already coming for their students. As more time went on however, the other students had all left with their teachers and even the academy sensei had left, telling the awkward three to just wait for their teacher.

That is where Sakura found herself at a complete loss on what to. She sat a row higher then both her teammates who had a great deal of space between them. No one spoke and Sakura didn't have much social practice to know if she should break the tense air. Was it because of her? She hoped not and turned back to stare out the window almost longingly this time.

Naruto, who had been observing her out of the corner of his eye for the last couple minutes, also turned to look out the window. Before, when they were dismissed for lunch, he had noticed she got to the door rather quickly and when she had turned to look back, he saw the same neutral expression she wore all the time. It made him wonder if she ever changed her facial expressions.

After about another half hour of awkwardness, Sasuke finally had enough waiting and snapped. "Where is our damn sensei! We've been waiting here for about three hours now! Do they realize we are even here! Why does our sensei have to be incompetent? Isn't it bad enough that I have you guys as teammates!" he seethed.

Naruto looked at him coolly and responded coldly, "You shouldn't be talking Uchiha. I don't even know how they let you pass with those pathetic test scores. Maybe if you weren't hounding after girls all the time, you could earn a decent grade."

Sasuke practically spit fire as he came up to his desk and leaned in until they were face to face. "What was that you teme! I don't need to take your bullshit just because you're the stupid Fourth's son!" he spat.

A fire was now lit in Naruto's eyes as he hissed dangerously, "Don't you dare tarnish my father's good name! Leave him out of this or else I'll make you sorry, you deadlast!"

"What did you call me! I most certainly am not a deadlast, you teme! You're the one who can't even do a simple clone right! How can you suck so much at something so easy? I bet the only reason they let you pass is because of who your dad was!"

"What did I say about talking about my father! You dumbass! He was more of a man then you'll ever be and for your information, I passed because all my other grades were superior!"

Sakura watched from the side lines as her two teammates went at it like two children fighting over whose dad was better. It almost made her smile at how stupid they were acting. At least she knew it wasn't her that had made them upset, although they both seemed to be reluctant to be teammates with her. Still, they didn't hate her so there was still a chance to get along with them.

She frowned as their fight seemed to get more vicious. She should probably step in. It wasn't good to ever fight like that if you didn't need too. Making up her mind and hoping they didn't dislike her for stopping them, she quickly jumped down next to the pair to say something.

However something unexpected happened as soon as she landed next to them. Both were taken by surprise at her sudden appearance and Sasuke lost balance falling right into Naruto.

At that exact moment, Hatake Kakashi walked into the classroom and was greeted by the strange sight of a dark haired kid on top of a blonde kid, their lips connected into a kiss and next to them was a pink haired girl with a blush staining her cheeks, looking on, as if transfixed.

All the jounin could think to say was "You all are a bunch of freaks."
