AN: The reason Sasuke was so bad in canon was because he was traumatised by the massacre. Hira has no such reason, so she is a bit... gentler.

The last of the Jinchuriki

Chapter I

Team 7 is back! The Bell Test!

The clasroom was quite loud, the anticipation for team placement shadowing all other subjects. Even the quiet people, such as Uchiha Hira, could be seen whispering with others.

Of course, it wasn't long before a small battle started. After all, most people wanted to be in the same team as the Hokage's daughter. The Sarutobi was by far the loudest fanboy that ever existed, was the decision Minato Noyoko took while setting up his prank.

First, he had used ninja wire to make a trap. Once the chunnin instructor fell, he would use another wire to drag down a bucket of paint. If that failed, he still put dog pheromones in the bucket, while also attracting some stray dogs.

He knew he would get scolded, but it wasn't like they could fail him anymore, so why not?

As he got back to his seat, he felt someone's eyes on him. As he turned back however, there was no one. "Must've been my imagination..." he thought as he sat down on the chair, leaning back.

Two minutes of shouting and fighting later, The Chunnin Instructor entered the classroom, carefully catching the bucket and punching the dogs out. This caused quite a lot of chuckles. One big "Shut UP!" later, he was waiting to hear his name. As the Chunnin got to team 6, he was getting anxious.

"Team 7 will be Uchiha Hira, Sarutobi Asuma Jr and Noyoko Minato." All hell promptly broke loose. Asuma was thanking the heavens, Hira sighed and threw a look in Minato's direction, while Minato himself cursed whoever put him in a team with that damned Sarutobi. The rest of the class was stuck between congratulating Asuma and Minato, comforting poor Hira and cursing Minato for getting the best teammates.

One by one, all teams left, leaving Team 7 by itself. Minato sighed and ran a hand through his silver hair. Dusting off his purple jacket, he went to see what Uchiha was up to. He never talked with her before, so he was at a complete loss about her.

He had seen her chiding and insulting people who were to weak for her, sometimes beating them down as humiliatingly as possible. She once beat a guy with only a head butt, and without even attacking. He tried to punch her, she dodged under and broke his nose with her forehead. Needless to say, they learned not to mess with her. At all.

And yet he saw her feeding the birds, explaining things to kids and beating bullies left and right. If you needed to get a cat out of a tree, you just had to ask her. "I don't understand how she works. Is she bipi-bipole- what was that word?" the boy thought, not even noticing their sensei enter the room until he spoke.

"So, I heard you guys are Team 7, right? Meet me on the roof." the man said before disappearing in a swirl of leaves.

"Of all people, it had to be my uncle... Hey wait for me Hira-chan!" Asuma shouted, trying to follow the other two.

They arrived one minute later to see their sensei read a book. It didn't take them long to notice the new Icha Icha, written by Kakashi Hatake, of all people. The man closed the book before sending them a mildly amused look.

"Okay, my dear minions, introduce yourselfs." Their sensei said with a smirk.

"You go first, Uncle." Asuma Jr responded with a frown. His uncle shrugged his shoulders, sent a glare at the boy, and closed his eyes.

"My name is Konohamaru Sarutobi, my likes and dislikes are way too numerous, my hobbies include reading, and my dream for the future... no idea." Konohamaru said, before pointing at Hira. "Your turn, girl."

"My name is Uchiha Hira, I like helping people, and putting idiots in their places. I dislike those who are weak and don't do anything about it and traitors. My hobby is training. My dream for the future is to lead the clan to glory." She said, her face unreadable. Her face turned to a scowl when Asuma tried to swoon over her, though. "Add fanboys to the dislike list."

Konohamaru's face seemed to pass through a storm of emotion, but they couldn't identify any of them. He pointed at Asuma next. "Your turn Fanboy."

"My name is Asuma Sarutobi, I like Hira and my mother, I dislike...Minato, my hobby is learning new Techniques. My dream for the future is to marry Hira, and show how powerful the Sarutobi are!" The boy shouted, the arrogant grin on his face making both Minato and Konohamaru grow a tick mark. Hira decided to kick him off the bench, and punch him, for good measure. Finally, Minato smirked and decided to present himself before he was called.

"The name is Minato Noyoko, I like dango and purple, I dislike the shops that don't sell dango and fanboys, My hobby is eating dango and my dream is to become Hokage, and make everyone respect me!" he shouted with confidence, only stopping when Konohamaru seemed ready to die from shock.

"Great job, idiot, you broke him with your stupidity." Asuma whispered, making Minato slumper down. If even his sensei thought he was wrong, he really had to work harder. Thankfully, the older Sarutobi let out a small laugh.

"Well, this team sure is made for the moniker Team 7! Anyway, meet me tommorow at training ground 7, and don't eat, or you'll puke!" He shouted as he flashed away once again. The three kids stared at the place he had occupied, not sure what to do.

"Sooo... You guys up for some dango?" Minato finally asked, trying to build some connections. Asuma snorted and threw an annoyed look to Hira. To the fanboy's sadness, Hira seemed to be considering it.

"I suppose it couldn't break anything. Team dynamics and all of that." she finally said with a sigh, before taking off to the shop. Asuma and Minato glanced at each other, before taking off after her.

It was quite hard for Minato to keep up with the other two, but he managed to follow, although from a distance. Strangely enough, as he tried to catch up to them, he was tripped by a man from the side.

Trying to lift his body off the ground, he found himself dragged up by a glaring Uchiha. "She has better things to do than carry me, that's for sure." He thought with a saddened look. If even his team disliked him, his chances were getting smaller and smaller.

"Why did you trip him?" Hira said, waking Minato from his reverie. He noticed the glare directed at the man who had intentionally put his foot in the way, and was now walking with a limp. "Great job, idiot, trying to trip someone running at 10 km/h" Minato thought, while watching Hira put the man in his place.

"C'mon Hira, you're wasting your time with this maggots. The Hokage tried to do the same for 10 years, and he is a lot more scary than you. Oh, and thank you for the lift." he said putting his hand on her shoulder. For some reason, the girl stiffed and averted her head.

"Don't mention it" she said before taking up with a sprint. Minato once again forced himself to catch up with them. Seeing that he almost lost them, he tried to channel some chakra into his legs. He failed at first, but then added a lot more.

In the next second he flew ahead and hit a trash bin. "I'm never doing that again." he thought as he sat up.

Finally the three reached the shop. Hira entered first, followed closely by Asuma and Minato. Thankfully, aside from a small dirty look, the waiters treated Minato as anyone else."Probably because I'm buying so much... Or because I'm with the Hokage's daughter." he thought as he finished his 6th serving.

It was a quiet meal, as the top ex-students were staring at the Noyoko kid who ate like a vacuum. The boy himself didn't know what to say, so he stuck to his food, which was delicious anyway. He noticed Asuma's very annoyed look and Hira's half bored half amused one, and decided his team might just be okay after all.

The next day, at Training Ground 7

Minato sighed as he listened to Asuma's rants. He was pretty sure that, if Hira wasn't an Uchiha and a Hyuuga, she would have snapped long ago. "Still a wonder she hasn't. Although she did kick him off the bench yesterday. Should have had a camera." he thought with a small giggle.

Still, their sensei was half an hour late. He had ran out of things to do long ago. He could get between Asuma and Hira, but... "Actually there is no reason not too." he decided.

Unfortunately, Konohamaru chose that time to show up. As he came closer, his smirk put all three of them on edge. It had a very scary menace behind it. As the three gennin got up, the Jonnin took out two bells. "You have one hour to take one of these. The one who doesn't get one goes back to the academy." Konohamaru said, trying to shorten the damn thing. Even Minato could see the excitement on the Jonnin's face as he charged.

He had apparently surprised his sensei as he threw a punch... only to be thrown over his shoulder. As he flew, he noticed several shuriken flying at the old Sarutobi... who used a substitution with a log.

Cursing under his breath, Minato searched for the man. After a few minutes of running around, he finally noticed him in a clearing, lazily defending from Asuma's kunai slashes. Deciding it was as good a moment as any, he jumped at the bells. Of course, the shinobi just sidestepped and kicked him in the stomach... Only to be attacked by a giant fire ball.

Minato's hair stood on it's ends. He knew Hira was ahead of him, but this was ridiculous. That thing was twice as big as him and he could feel the heat from 5 meters away! "Maybe she is a chunin in hiding! Or an ANBU! Or I've read too many legends about Uzumaki-sama..." he thought as he tried to get up. Key word "tried" because he suddenly found himself spinning around.

Trying not to puke, he tried to remember his lessons on genjustu. "Something about the chakra flow... oh hell I'll just send out my chakra and hope for the best." he thought, sending out a chakra pulse. It didn't seem too badat first, but he noticed that, although it stopped, he was feeling unstable. After all, he just spun for 2 minutes non-stop. It was imposible to walk straight right away, especially after sending out a chakra flare a chunnin would be hard pressed to copy. He was pretty sure he felt Hira's byakugan on him.

Suddenly, two hands came to support him. Looking up he noticed both his teammates, just as roughed up as he was. Asuma was shaking in anger after being humiliated, while Hira seemed to be panting and glaring.

"We are going together this time. We are a team for a goddamn reason!" the girl shouted, leaving no room for argument. Not that anyone would have protested.

Five minutes later.

Sarutobi didn't seem to expect Asuma and Minato to attack at the same time. Still, he easily dodged the attacks of both of them. Their teamwork was horrible, but at least they tried. As he stepped back, his shinobi sense kicked into action just in time to dodge several small fireballs.

However this left him open to Asuma's own fire technique. Cursing, the man jumped over the

fire jet and used his kunai to deflect the shuriken thrown by Minato. Afterwords, he was attacked hand-to-hand by Hira. After dodging a punch, he sent a kick, only for her to jump over his head and send her own kick to his back.

Fortunately for him, the clock sounded the next moment, ending the test.

"Okay, after all of that crazyness, I can only say one thing..." He stopped as he noticed the three defeated genin trying to stare back at him, before continuing "... You pass!"

At the same time, in Demon Country

"I don't even want to know how you did all of that." Shion said as she watched her daughter's smirk. Priestesses weren't exactly epitomes of goodness, but resorting to blackmail, bribery and lying for such a stupid reason was a bit too much. She blamed Naruto. "That might just be something he would do... although lying was never his strong suit." she thought.

"It doesn't matter, I'll go prepare my things. It's a long way to Konoha" Naruko responded, going to her room.
