Chapter Srii: Genin Time
Iruka stood in front of another year of future warriors of the village. Today is the day for these young minds to rise above the ranks in their ninja career. He felt a little sad on knowing the facts that more than half of this class will be back at the academy in a few weeks. It is for their best. Even being a genin can be dangerous. Collecting cats, cleaning out houses, and pulling out weeds can be very hazardous.
The scar-faced chunnin looked at the class. Quite a few characters from prominent clans of Konoha stood out. And of course there is a kyuubi container. He held unjust hate for the boy at first. Later on, the boy warmed up to him, even though the boy was cold and uncaring and had nothing in common with his younger self. But Iruka is destined to be the first to acknowledge the boy.
So the test begin as each student were called to the next room, where the instructors where to test on their basic ninja skills. Each of the students performed the bunshin technique earning their Konoha head bands. When it came to Naruto's turn, he created over 25 clones to fill in the small crammed room; even though he was a calm skilled ninja who knew to not show his true strength and had always performs the minimum requirement in class.
The numbered of clones shocked the instructors. They quickly gathered themselves and passed Naruto. Iruka was happy for the demon container who he used to hate and had nothing in common with.
Mizuki however put on a forced face smile while inwardly he was fuming for he lost the chance to use the boy who wasn't dead last who he shouldn't be targeting for his plan in the first place.
In the end Mizuki somehow tricked Naruto in stealing the scroll of sealing from the most secured building in the village. However things won't go as the traitor planned. Both the container and the demon within already knew of Mizuki's trickery, but stole the scroll anyways for personal gains.
Naruto copied down the scrolls information for himself and learned the Kage Bunshin technique before Iruka showed up.
Naruto learned that day that Iruka truly cared for him. Naruto gained precious person not to mention a very useful scroll so everyone was happy, except for Mizuki who was arrested.
The next day Naruto walked in to the class room. He saw children chattering about random things. Suddenly he felt a familiar pair of eyes on him. Hinata's eye darted to her feet as she noticed her crush looking back at her. Even though Naruto wasn't a cheerful prankster the timid Hyuuga started to admire the dark quite boy as the other fan girls flawed upon the last Uchiha.
The pale girl gathered up her courage and walked up to Naruto and spook to him.
"A-a-ano... ano... N-n-n-n-n-n-na-ru-ruto k-k-k-kun..." She then blushed like a tomato and fainted.
Naruto felt a bit sorry for his stalker. Yes, he knows of her following him often but he didn't really care.
He sat down in an empty seat which just so happened to be next Uchiha Sasuke. The seat was surprisingly empty seeing that there are so many fan girls who'd want to sit next to their crush at any given chance. It's truly a strange phenomenon indeed.
A loud crash can be heard at the entrance as two banshees stormed into the room and then had the nerves to demand Naruto to move. This just won't do. Naruto out right refused the two girls. They were quite nice looking girls, he had to admit, but their screech is more than anyone can stand. Why would any girl think their screaming would get a boy's attention?
In the end Naruto ended up kissing Sasuke and sorted to his team with Sakura. Naruto thought it was strange that the dead last was supposed to be with the top girl and boy. That should have been Shikamaru teamed up with emo boy and his self proclaimed number one fan girl. But that's just the way things are.
Several hours latter their jounin sensei finally showed, and up right told the group he hated them even though he wasn't pranked. They met on the roof top for introduction.
So after the self introductions we have already read a million times, Kakashi informed the team of their bell test tomorrow. So begins the adventures of cold dark Naruto and team seven.
