Author's Note: I know this is not looking like much of an alternate universe right now, but I promise a whole new world. And this chapter is supposed to introduce Naruto. So a short one I guess.

Disclaimer: Nope, don't own Naruto

Chapter 1

Naruto

The whispers followed me wherever I went. I was used to them by now.

'He's that kid'

'Isn't he that guy?'

'I know him! What is he doing here?'

They didn't bother me. I knew what people thought of me, though I didn't know why. But I was gonna show them. Show them what I got. But that would come later. Right now, I had to introduce myself. Easy one.

'I am Naruto Uzumaki. And I am gonna become the next Hokage.' Did I scream a bit too loud? Never mind.

'Well, that is quite ambitious. Welcome to this school Naruto. I am Kakashi Hatake, your Physics teacher. Please take your seat. Over there.' the teacher said pointing. What kind of a teacher wears masks to school?

I took my seat between a pink haired girl and a guy who seemed to be too bored to care that I pushed off his textbook from the desk by mistake.

'Idiot' he said. So he did care.

'Who you calling an idiot dobe?' I replied.

'Please calm down Sasuke!' the girl crooned in a 5 year old voice.

This girl might be drop dead hot. But she seemed to be an airhead. Well, I could manage airheads.

'And who are you gorgeous?' I asked her

She turned up her nose in disgust. I was familiar with this expression. But I didn't care.

Suddenly the class fell silent. Everybody was staring at us.

'If you three have finished your conversation, I would like to inform you that I have grouped you three together for the rest of the year in Physics lab. Now Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha is the class topper. And Sakura Haruno is a close second. They will help you catch up with our course here. I hope you can adjust soon. Changing schools in the final year is difficult for everybody. If you need any help, feel free to contact me.' Kakashi said

This girl? A topper? No way!

'Know this beforehand. I won't change partners. I want you all to work together. Better if you start doing that sooner rather than later.' he finished, looking straight at us.

I looked at my partners. Sakura seemed disappointed that I was on the team. But seemed happier that Sasuke was on the same team as her. This girl had got it bad for Sasuke. I looked over at Sasuke. He seemed to be indifferent.

I had a feeling that this lab project was going to be interesting.

A/N: I have a vision about this story. Hope it pans out as I want it to. Please review so I can make it better. This is my first time here.
