Ch.1

Nine rookie meet triplet tails

It was the middle of summer, the afternoon to be exact, in OVEN HOT TEMPRTURES!!!! Naruto, sakura, sasuke, kiba, hinata, shino, ino, choji, and shikamaru, where all at the lake trying to get away from the heat.

Ino and sakura where having there daily arugment about sasuke, who was sleeping while floting in the water.

Choji was eating something (as always) on shore.

Naruto was cannonballing of trees.

Hinata was sunbathing (as ino and sakura were doing earlier).

Shakamaru was floting in the water, complaining. (A/N: we all know why)

kiba was dunking shino under water.

"CANNONBALL! WAHHH HOOO! "naruto yelled as he jumped into the water, causing everyong to scatter.

A huge wave drenched everyone, not to mention p.oed sakura and ino. "YOU MORON!!" ino and sakura yelled, pumling him to a pulp.

Naruto was covered in lumps, had one black eye and many many bruses.

"what the hell was that for?!"

"for the cannon balls!!!!"

A loud scraching and sound was head.

Everyone started to look around for where it was comeing from. Was it from the trees? On land? Underground?

Just then, three girls around their age came out of nowhere. One had long black and white hair and badger like nails, dark green almost black eyes and was covered in drit and had a badger siting on her head. The sceond one, who ran almost over naruto, had light blonde hair that was slightly standing up on end, light brown eyes and had sparks flying off her with a white weasle on her shoulder. the thrid one was matted black hair, ember eyes and a wolf pup standing by her foot.

"hey! who are you three?!" Ino said, startled from their sudden apparence.

"I'm Itachia. but my sisters call me chia." the frist one said as the badger jumped onto kiba's head.

"I'm lupinea, but lupe for short" the thrid one said trying not to laugh.

The second one jumped into the lake, shocking everyone in the water as a result sasuke geting the worst of it. "and I'm raiji. sorry bout that."

Sasuke swam toward raiji and dunked her under water. "this is what you get for almost killing me!"

sakura looked at him in disbelelfe as sasuke tryed to drown raiji. Why the hell is he doing that to her?! it was just an acident!!!

Itachia smerked as she jumped into the water from behind.

"hey. raven head look behind ya."

"what?"

WHAM!

Itachia punched him in the face, sending him flying head first into a tree.

Naruto wooped

Sakura and Ino where in aw.

Kiba laughed till his ribs hurt.

Shino...well...just sood there.

Choji droped his chips in shock.

Hinata fainted.

Shikamuaru stared at Itachia with the I-can't-beleave-she-just-did-that face.

and Sasuke juat stared at Itachia shock in aw.

"dude. do that to my sister again and shit's gonna hit the fan. you got that?!" she snarled at him as the badger fluffed up it's fur.

Sasuke nodded in agrement as he tryed to get up.

Sakura cam running over to him, helping him up with a consered look on her face. "SASUKE! ARE YOU OK?!"

"yeah I'm fine, nobody's ever goten that close to punch me out. " He looked over to Itachia

"you were drowing my sister, I had no chose"

"go to hell. the name's sasuke though"

"Itachia is the name, being a fighter is my game."

sakura rolled her eyes at them as thire converation continued. great...sasuke hurt and chating it up with this...this...badger! oh well at least it's starting to cool down...

Meanwhile, back at the lake, raiji, lupinea, naruto, kiba, akamaru, shino, ino, choji, shikamaru, and hinata were on shore chating it up with them.

"sorry about the little shocker. I hope no one was hurt." raiji said as her weasel started messing with akamaru.

"I-it's o-okay. I-I'm hinata" hinata studdered as lupinea's pup ran over to kiba.

"Looks like pup here has a likeing to you kiba." ino teased

"meirou? oh don't worry she's harmless...for the moment." lupinea laughed, noticeing Itachia, sakura and sasuke comeing back.

"yo, you and raven hair alright?" raiji said, sparks flying off her again.

"I'm fine, but sasuke is still sulking" Itachia snickered.

Meirou, lupeina's wolf pup, started running around everyone with what looked like a bag of chips in it's mouth. It ran over akamaru, kana(Itachia's badger), sooky(raiji's weasel), naruto's foot, and climbed back onto lupeinea's head. Naruto started complaining about his foot, while akamaru tryed to chase after meirou. "Ok. Who gave the wolf the chips?!" Raiji yelled, accidentily shocking herself.

Everyone imidenly looked at choji, who was missing his bag of barbique chips. "what? I thought it was hungry." he complined as raiji jumped back onto a branch.

"yo. what are you doing up there?" sasuke said in his usual emotionless tone.

"you're not gonna do what I think you're gonna do? are you?" itacha said, knowing shit was gonna hit the fan.

"what's she gonna do? catipult herself in the air?" naruto said laughing.

Raiji jumped upwards, going passed the clouds, hit about three birds and a blump and stayed up there.

shino gawked at the sight, naruto was still laughing, hinata fainted, ino and sakura stared in disbelif, shikamaru was too lazy to notice, choji was eating(nah duh), kiba was makeing jokes about it, and sasuke just stared up into the sky.

"raiji! FALL ALREADY! IT'S ALMOST NIGHTFALL!" Itachia and lupinea yelled as a whisleing sound was heard.

A blur of blond and sparks started falling toward the lake, causeing everyone to scatter once again.

Raiji landed at he bottom of the lake, leaveing it a eletric trap.

"well what do ya know look at the time, we got to go. see ya!" itachia and lupinea said makeing a run for it as night fell. "hey! wait for me!!!!" raiji yelled to them as she ran toward them, snaching up kana, sooky, and meirou.

"Wait's up with them?" shino said, watching them run.

"I dono. Some should follow them." sakura said truning to naruto

"I'll do it. Besides I want to get good look at the way they fight!"

He ran off after them as darkness covered kohona, not knowing what was in store for him...
