Rin Inuzuka could barely contain her excitement as she walked the halls of the Konohagakure Ninja Academy for the last time. It was finally here: the day that she's meet her sensei!

Rin had replaced another kunoichi by the name of Tenten, who was removed from the program because of an awful sickness. Tenten was bedridden as she had a tumor that was discovered right before the exam to exit the Academy. Rin was devastated.

At first they two kunoichis in training had been friends with other kunoichis in training that were one class below themselves: Chia Yazori, Sakura Haruno, Hinata Hyuga, Ino Yamanaka and Kinuta Shirano; the younger five looked up to Rin and Tenten as older sisters. Once Tenten found out about the tumor, she became a vile person, and the group of kunoichi broke up, but only Tenten actually left. Eventually, the tumor affected her so much, she couldn't move. Currently, she was dying and had one week left to live.

Rin found herself beginning to cry, with her head resting on her intertwined hand, which were resting against the wall. Reciting the Twenty-Fifth Rule of Shinobi Conduct helped: "No matter what happens, true Shinobi must never show their emotions." She recited it ten times, and a yip from her ninja dog Alpha and then she was calm enough to enter Room Three.

Her letter hadn't told her who her team members would be, though she knew already, but not who her sensei would be. When she entered, Rin found that she was the second person to arrive, right behind a shorter boy with a short black bowl cut, and a red Hidden Leaf headband tied around his head, like her blue one was.

They had time for next to no interactions because a Shinobi or Kunoichi, Rin couldn't be sure, walked in the room.

The guy with short hair nodded curtly to the guy/girl with long black hair. "Neji."

The person called Neji opened his/her eyes. They were just plain creepy. They looked like they could see through anything, which they probably could, if this was the famous Neji Hyuga.

"Lee." So Neji person was a guy. Rin knew because of his voice. He sounded cocky. But Lee and I weren't babies who needed their asses wiped for them! He turned to Rin. "And who are you?"

"Umm, hi! My name is Rin Inuzuka, you and I were in the same class in the Academy," Rin leaned down to pick up Alpha. "This is my ninja dog Alpha."

The squad exchanged a few more pleasantries, but couldn't continue. In the doorway stood a man who could only be their sensei walked in the room, exclaiming "Let the power of youth explode!" He had a full body green jumpsuit, the standard Jonin vest, a black bowl cut and a red Hidden Leaf headband tied around his waist.

"HELLO SQUAD THIRTEEN!! Nice to meet you, my youthful teammates!" He walked up to Rin and stuck his face right up next to her own. "Do you feel it?"

Rin shook her head, her long straight blond hair fluttering as she did. Then their sensei turned to Neji. "How 'bout you? Do YOU feel it?"

"Feel what?" Neji said with annoyance, almost contempt or disbelief. "What am I supposed to be feeling? And are you REALLY a Jonin?"

Their sensei jumped back. "Why of course I am! My name is Might Guy, Leaf's Noble Gentleman! You might have heard of me!" He grinned about the room, much like Naruto would, with his hands on his hips. He was also laughing, like he was drunk.

Rin gave him a blank look, glancing at her new team mates. "We actually haven't."

Now Guy was drooped down, his arms hanging in mid air, as if he was trying to touch his toes. "You really haven't?" Even though he couldn't see them, the team shook their heads. Guys rose and put out his arm and made his hand do a thumbs up. ("Behold the power of youth!") Neji, Lee and Rin thought that they could see his tooth twinkle.

"Well, we'll just have to fix that, now won't we?" Guys turned back towards the door. "Catch me if you can!" He sprinted out the door.

Rin was the first to almost catch up with Guy. He finally stopped running in front of Ichiraku Ramen. She spotted his green jumpsuit ducking into the shop.

"He's over there!" Rin yelled, pointing towards the little shop. Then she whispered: "Follow my lead."

Neji, Rin and Lee sprinted to the shop and entered, while nodding.

Rin turned to Teuchi, the owner. "Hey, have you seen Might Guy, by any chance? We thought we saw him run in here," said Rin, seemingly oblivious to Guys presence.

"I might have," chuckled Teuchi. "But I think he ran towards the gate."

Rin bowed. "Thank you sir." She rose.

"You're welcome, Rin."

Neji and Lee followed Rin back outside, then ran to the side of the shop. "Awesomitaly."

"Wait for him to come out. Rin and Alpha, go to the left. Lee, go to the right. Make yourselves as hidden as possible."

"Roger!" said Lee and Rin simultaneously.

Once they were in position, Guy came out of the small shop and not a moment too soon.

Lee and Rin didn't act until Neji ran out from his hiding place. Rin and Alpha had jumped onto the roof of an adjacent building. Lee had ran around the corner of another.

Alpha got to Guys right before Rin and Lee and right after Neji did. Alpha opened her already big jaws and grabbed Guys ankle. Neji grabbed the neck of his Jonin vest. Lee and Rin grabbed his left and right arms.

"Got you, Guy Sensei," said Rin triumphantly.

"I guess you did," Guy chuckled. "We will meet immediately on the roof of the Academy! When you get there, you are forbidden to use the inside hallways! Climb up to the side of the building without using the stairs!"
