Chapter 2
In konoha after an academy student becomes a genin they are put on a three man squad plus one Jounin leader who will be their new teacher in the arts of the shinonbi ways. So the day after the genin examination the graduates are told to go back to the academy for the last time before their real ninja training begins. Also at the academy they are assigned to their teams.
As hikari sat in the 3rd row she counted the number of students in the room. There had to be a mistake because there was an even amount of kids in the room. If there were going to be teams of 3 that would leave one genin in this room out. She wondered what would happen to the kid that was not assigned to a team. I just hope it is not me she thought. Iruka walked into the room with 2 jounin at his side. Not many people were in the class this year due to the attack of the sound village let alone the number of kids who won their fights. "I will now read off the names of the genin to be put into the care of one of these jounin." iruka said loudly.
He didn't beat around the bush when the names were called. The first team had been read off then out the door before even a minute passed. She was not one of the names called for that team so she had to be in the next. "Here are the names of the next team" iruka slowed his voice down he knew the kids were nervous about being the one left out. "First we have Sayuri Zakushi" she walked up to the front of the class and shook hands with the female jounin. "Next we have Yoshiko Naburaho, and last is Tashimoso Haburo. They quickly left the room after being called. Hikari's heart sank when her name wasn't called. Tears started to stream down her face. True shinobi do not cry but was she even a ninja if she wasn't on a team. Iruka noticed the girl crying and went up beside her to comfort her.
"Iruka sensei" what about me she sobbed. "I passed the test why wasn't I assigned to a team."
"Oh so that is what you are worried about." he chuckled "You are defiantly going to be assigned to a team."
"What do you mean master iruka the other teams have already left." she was very confused about what iruka had said.
"During your fight you showed more skill in a combat situation than the others did" iruka replied. " We have a more experienced team we want you to be on. They lost a member soon after the sound village's invasion attempt."
"Really master iruka?" she dried her tears. "I did the best so I get to be put on an advanced team?"
"Well I guess you could say that" iruka said scratching the back of his head. "lets just say they are an odd group of people you'll be teaming up with." Hikari wandered what team she would be put on. "They want you to meat them at the 3rd training grounds, so you better hurry." Hikari nodded an took off out the door. I sure hope she is ok the missions that team go on are a bit more difficult for their skill level. I'm sure she'll be fine though.
Hikari ran as fast as she could to the third training ground. She wandered who would be on her team. They were probably ten times better than she was, but she had been put on this team for a reason, and whatever it was she would serve konoha proud. As she was running she passed the hokage tower when she met the gaze of the 5th hokage Tsunade one of the tree legendary sanin. Tsunade smiled at her knowing the team she would be on it amused her because she would have to deal with one of the most annoying people ever. Thinking Tsunade smiled at her because she knew she was a good ninja put a spring in hikari's steps and she quickened her pace to the training grounds.
Naruto was walking by Sakura who was talking to their sensei Kakashi. She was curious about the reason they were going to the training zone instead of doing a mission. Naruto was clueless like always, he just followed along and tried to outdo himself when they were given something to do. Kakashi looked at Sakura and told her the reason for going to the training zones. "Well Sakura you know today was the day the new academy students became genin. There was one kid who did a bit better and she will be joining our squad."
"Are you serious kakashi" sakura and naruto shouted out in unison. "What about Sasuke we havent forgotten about him have we" sakura said "yeh even though he is a stupid show off he is still apart of our team." naruto shouted.
"Well Sasuke is a missing nin now and he can never be allowed into the village legally again. Officially he is no longer a member of konoha or our team" he said sadly. "but we will be nice to our new member and she will work with us on our mission, she will just be another member to our team."
"How about we play a trick on her?" naruto suggested. He wanted to have some fun to lighten the mood about sasuke so he might as well welcome their new teammate with style.
"What do you mean you baka?" Sakura new exactly what naruto meant and the idea didn't sound too bad herself.
"What do you have in mind" Kakashi asked.
"why don't we all act like were dead and I'll make ghost shadow clones of us and we can scare the crap out of her." the immage of a poor little girl screaming in terror flashed into his head.
"Whatever naruto" kakashi and sakura agreed.
Hikari arrived at the training zone and sat down on a stump. She heard flies buzzing around so she turned to look at where the flies were. Lying there was a girl with pink hair, a boy with blond, and a jounin looking ninja with gray hair dead on the ground. There was a member missing. Could this be her team. Who killed them what would happen to her, the enemy would still be lurking around looking for a third member. Hikari screamed.
That was their cue naruto had made spirit looking copied of himself sakura and kakashi. He flew in and made moaning sound. The girl had seen them and the terror in her eyes grew deeper. The light blue hair she had dangled past her shoulders. She was shaking in fear. Naruto decided to say something now. "wooooooo I have come to eat your soul." He snorted at his genius plan.
Hikari seen the ghosts. "please just leave me alone" she screamed. "I'm too young to die. Somebody save me." She notice the ghost snort at her pleading for life. This almost seemed to be enjoying him. The ghost figures also resembled the bodies on the ground. "what are you trying to pull here. I know there are no such things as ghosts"
She's on to me naruto thought. All of a sudden she charged him with these two fans. Loosing his concentration the two ghosts disappeared and the jutsu stoped. Crap he thought this was the best plan ever and it backfired upon him. She stoped and looked at him. Sakura and kakashi walked out of behind the trees knowing they were caught. They all walked up to the girl.
"what is the meaning of this" hikari cried out in confustion. These weird dead people were dead on the ground, then spirits of them attacked me, and now they are alive standing in front of me. What is going on.
"Well I'm kakashi hatake your new sensei."
"And I'm sakura"
"And I'm naruto uzimaki and we are your new team mates." they smile at her.
"I'm Hikari Takeshi,and I'm glad to be on your team." She was still confused but her team seemed to have a good mood about her. Maybe she will like this team after all.
