The original characters of this story are the (c) of Masashi Kishimoto.
However, the new characters of this story were created by me.

I thought of the idea to go back to the Chunin Exam because I thought it would be a great idea. Also, this takes place after the training Naruto went through (hence the Shippuden in the title).

I encourage comments, so please leave them so I can understand what you feel is a good idea or a bad idea. Please... I'd like to know how to make this better or if you think it ruins the show, which I hope isn't the case because it took me a long time to come up with a story (I came up with the story while I was watching Heroes, a great show, so it might not be that good. Also, at the start of every chapter I make shall be a character background piece... DO NOT MOCK IT. This is read somewhat like a play. Words in italics are not part of the actual story instead the are more like footnotes that explain or give more information on people(s). Things in brackets have to do with the changing of who someone is talking to

Prologue- Hidden Flame Village

Hikari: Hey, Ukiro, watcha doin.

Ukiro: He is the Hokage of the Hidden Flame Village. Hikari is his nephew and currently living with him Oh, I didn't here you come into my office. You know, sometimes I really hate these important papers I have to fill out.

Hikari: Yeah I would too if I was Hokage, that's why I am part of the ANBU. So I don't have to worry about papers, all I do is track people down and bring them back to the village for interrogation.

Ukiro: (to the door) Please come in.

Junko: He can be considered Hikari's rival, but he doesn't really put a lot of effort in to anything. Hikari himself considers him as somewhat of a nuisance You wanted to see me... (to Hikari) Oh, what are you doing here.

Hikari: (to Ukiro) Well it seems I shall have to leave, now that you have other company.

Ukiro: (to both) Actually I called for Junko because I wanted to announce that from this day on you two are now a team and no unnecessary fighting shall happen or there will be consequences.
