Chapter 2: Team placement

Naruko woke up the next morning and lay in bed thinking things over,she didn't care what everyone though about her gender change since Iruka already knew of it and of course the Hokage along with Yuhi Kurenai, the one that had taken on herself to train her since she was 5 and got abused badly by a jounin, those were the only that had acknowledged her up to this date and she knew that she had graduated at the top of the class and that everyone was going to be shouting about how the ''dobe'' had cheated.

Naruko sighed and climbed out of bed deciding to take a shower before getting an healthy breakfast instead of always ramen, she loved it but she knew she had to have a varying diet so her growth wouldn't suffer.

As she got out of the shower and got dressed into a black T-shirt and girl-boxers, she heard someone in the kitchen. Grabbing a kunai she walked silently and slowly towards the kitchen only to see Kurenai in her kitchen making breakfast. When she saw who it was she relaxed and said ''good morning Kurenai-san.'' "Good morning sunshine, I decided to come over and cook you breakfast since we wont be training together anymore since you will have a team and a sensei from now on. By the way, congrats on graduating. I'm very proud of you." Kurenai said as she turned around and smiled gently at her. "Thanks, I wouldn't have been able to to it without you though, you helped me greatly by teaching me all of those chakra control exercises and the kage-bunshin. Aren't you taking on a genin team?"Asked Naruko as she sat down at the table watching Kurenai finish cooking egg and bacon and saw that she had made pancakes with syrup for her too since Kurenai knew that Naruko was bottomless when it came to eating but she never gained a pound, which was something even she envied her for.

As she put the plate in front of Naruko and sat down with her own she answered her question. "Yes I will take on a genin team this year but you wont be on it sadly. The Hokage wasn't happy about separating us but he had no choice, the teams have to be balanced. But don't worry, that doesn't mean we wont see each other. You are like a daughter to me and you know it Naruko." "i know Kurenai, your also the only mother figure I've ever had, I'm just sad that i wont be on your genin team. Not many jounin are as understanding to my situation as you, it wouldn't be much good if I had a sensei that would put me into as many suicide situations as he could so I would die." Naruko said as she finished her food within record time and Kurenai stared at her with a face that was basically like this O.O;. Naruko just looked at her and tilted her head to the side with a look that looked like: o.o?.(An: so people don't get annoyed because of this anymore then she looked innocently at her)

Kurenai chuckled and smiled and Naruko then looked at the time "i better get going to the academy so i can know who my lovely team is" said Naruko sarcastically and stood up before putting their dishes into the sink. "I should probably get going too. And by the way, meet me at 6 in front of the hokage tower tomorrow night" said Kurenai while she walked to the door and put her ninja sandals on. "I will, see you then" Naruko said as she followed Kurenai to the door, after she had left Naruko went into her bedroom and put on some black pants and changed out of the black t-shirt for a blood red one and put on her red and black jacket and put on her forehead-protector before putting on her black ninja boots and black fingerless gloves with guards on the back.

As she walked to the Academy she noticed that people didn't glare at her since they didn't recognize her anymore thanks to her having been under the seal for the last 7 years, that would change eventually but she wasn't complaining. When she arrived at her destination she went into her classroom and noticed everyone being there already except for a certain pink haired banshee and Yamanaka Ino, so she just sat in the far back in the corner next to Nara Shikamaru and Akimichi Chouji. As she sat down she decided to nap a little so she put her feet on top of the table and leant back, putting her forehead protector over her eyes.

Not long after she fell asleep she was awoken with a loud noise and the crash of the door to the classroom being kicked open and the pink haired banshee and Ino falling into the room in one heap before they jumped up each claiming to have won the race. Naruko just rolled her eyes and knew it was a race over who got to sit next to the ''famous and awesome'' Uchiha Sasuke whom Naruko could swear was as gay as a banana sticking out of a dogs ass. Naruko herself was called an ice-princess by Kurenai while Kurenai was called the Ice-queen of Konoha by the whole male population of said village since she didn't show any interest in them.

While the girls were still fighting Iruka came in and used his big head no jutsu and ordered everyone to please shut the hell up and sit down. When everyone had followed his orders he took up a clip-board and said "So, now you are all graduated from the academy and will be placed on teams considering your strengths and weaknesses. This years rookie of the year was Uzumaki Naruko." after he said that he could hear various questions along the lines of: WHAT! Who the hell stole the title from our precious Sasuke-kun? And Who the hell is Naruko Uzumaki? Or We only had Naruto Uzumaki in this class so what the hell is going on?. Iruka had to use his big head no jutsu again and then started to explain. "No one stole anyone's title and Naruto Uzumaki and Naruko Uzumaki are the same person, Naruko was under a seal to make her look like a boy this whole time due to some problems which are not mine to share. Now shut the hell up and let me finish!" Iruka glared at everyone in the room and then started listing the teams.."team one is..."

"Team 7 will be Uchiha Sasuke, Inuzuka Kiba and Haruno Sakura, under the tutelage of Hatake Kakashi. Team 8 will be Aburame Shino, Hyuuga Hinata and Yamanaka Ino under the tutelage of Yuhi Kurenai. Team 9 is still in circulation from last year. Team 10 will be Nara Shikamaru, Akimichi Chouji and Uzumaki Naruto under the tutelage of Sarutobi Asuma. Now everyone i hope you will have a great career ahead of you, there will now be a 1 hour lunch break before you come back in here and meet your sensei's. " Iruka finished and smiled at them before leaving the classroom. Naruko noticed that Kiba was arguing with his new team and decided to head to Inchirakus to get some beloved heavenly ramen since she had an hour to waste.

As she was walking towards the Ramen stand she heard someone call after her and looked back to see Shikamaru and Chouji walking towards her. "Hey Naruko, where you headed?" Asked Chouji as he munched on his chips. "Just to get some ramen, wanna join?" Naruko answered and looked at them. "Sure why not" said both boys and they walked together to the Ramen stand chatting about everything and nothing.

She had never spent much time with any of her classmates except to act like an idiot and a loser when she was younger so she didn't really know her teammates except for she knew that Shikamaru was a lazy genius that kept sleeping in class but always scored the highest on written tests and that he was the Nara clan heir. Chouji she knew little about except that he was the Akimichi Clan heir and that he loved to eat. It was the same for the boys though since Naruto, the idiot of the class and Naruko the rookie of the year were polar opposites. Naruto was goofy, idiotic and kept pranking people while Naruko was serious, cold and smart. While they ate their ramen they asked each others questions about their likes, dislikes, and basic stuff like that.

When they were done eating they realized they were going to be late if they didn't hurry so they paid for their food and ran to the academy. They arrived 5 minutes late and when they got into their classroom they saw a strange sight, Kurenai was dragging two jounin by the collar of their vests to the front of the class, one had gravity defying silver hair and had his forehead-protector over his left eye and a mask covering most of his face while the other one had black spiky hair, and was smoking a cigarette. Kurenai just smiled sweetly once she was at the front of the classroom and asked team 8 to follow her before leaving the room, the cyclops asked team 7 to come with him before doing the same though he was mumbling something about violent female jounin who dragged him to get there on time when he passed Naruko. The black spiky haired man then asked Naruko and her team to follow him as he left too with them in tow.

He made them follow him to training ground 10 where he introduced himself "My name is Sarutobi Asuma, I will be your jounin sensei until you become Chunin. My likes are playing shogi and having fun while being lazy and dislikes are those who betray their village. I have no hobbies besides playing shogi and training and i have no interest in sharing my dream. Now you 3 introduce your-self's the same way. First you Blondie"
Naruko glared lightly at him for being called a blondie before doing as she was told "Names Uzumaki Naruko, Likes are Ramen, dislikes are rapists, and people who hurt others for no reason but other than hurting them and being called blondie, hobby's are training, reading and cooking, my dream is to become a great shinobi and maybe hokage one day." "OK, next lazy boy" Asuma said. Shikamaru sighed and muttered troublesome under his breath "My name is Nara Shikamaru, my likes are watching clouds, playing shogi and sleeping. My dislikes are people who treat others differently because they aren't the same as them. Hobbies are sleeping, reading, cloud gazing, playing shogi and being lazy. Dream... I cant be bothered." he said finally before laying down on his back. "and the last one" Asuma said finally. " My name is Akimichi Chouji, my likes are food, training with my dad and helping out at home. My dislikes are bully's and mean people. My hobbies are eating, training, cloud gazing and spending time with my friends. My dream is to become a strong ninja like my dad." Chouji answered and Asuma smiled and said "Very good. Tomorrow we will have the real Genin test to see if you will be one of the 9 that will become Genin this year. Meet me here at 8am sharp." He then vanished using a shunshin and Naruko and her teammates went their different ways.
