Alright, everyone. Here is the third chapter. I had decided to hold off my other story, because this one comes more natural than the other. Next is the matter with the two devil fruits. I got the Zoan fruit done, but the matter is the logia. I can't decide betweens the Mera-Mera no Mi or the Hie Hie no Mi. If you pick one just review and i'll see it. Enjoy!
Genin of Konoha
Today was the day for team placements for the genin of Konoha. Genin are usually put in to four-man cells or squad, consisting of three genin and a jonin, in order to experience true ninja life under the supervision and protection of an elite shinobi. The make-up of these teams is based on the individual skills of the genin, so that there will be a balance between the teams.
"I am now going to announce the teams for this year. Team one is Inaho, Komaza, and Tanzo." Of course, Naruto had tuned him out again. He would start paying attention when someone interesting came up. He use to have a crush on Inaho, but she was a Sasuke fan girl too. A lot of guys you too because
"You should pay more attention. You'll never know if you will have to fight one them. And you need to stop brooding about Inaho." Magellan commented. In Impel Down, he had to know all of his soldiers. From time to time, they would try to betray The World Government and free someone. Magellan would instantly execute those who tried.
"I don't think it matters. At the moment, none of them can compare to me. And that crush was three years ago! I was eight and didn't know any better. I'm not interested into any girls in this class." The old Impel Down warden sighed at the boy's slight arrogance. There was still many enemies that could defeat them.
"Whatever you say. Just watch your back for anything and anyone. Something can happen when you least expect it." Naruto inwardly nodded his head, and started paying attention again.
"Team 7 members and Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and Sakura Haruno. Your sensei is Kakashi Hatake." Naruto instantly didn't like his team. Sure, Sakura is a little pretty, but she was the loudest person in Konoha. In Naruto's book, he likes to call her a banshee. Right now, she rubbing in the fact she had Sasuke on her team to Ino.
Next is Sasuke Uchiha. The blonde hated the boy as soon he saw him. The guy was always brooding and never talked to anyone, no matter how nice or sincere they are. Every day, there are girls lining up to talk to him. The boy was currently looking out the window.
"Team 8 members are Kiba Inuzuka, Shino Aburame, and Hinata Hyuuga. Your sensei is Kurenai Yuhi." Kiba was grinning at having Hinata on his team, Shino was sitting silently, and Hinata was a little depressed. In his thought's he had missed the names of Team 9.
"Team 10 is Shikamaru Nara, Choji Akimichi, and Ino Yamanaka. Your jonin sensei is going to be Asuma Sarutobi." Shikamaru and Choji are happy that they are on the same team. Ino, however, wasn't taking it well.
"Why do I have to be on a team with a lazy ass and a fat ass?" She cried to herself. The only people that heard her were Kiba and Naruto due to their heightened senses. They were glad Choji didn't hear the comment.
"You are to wait here until your sensei arrives. Good luck to you all." Iruka grabbed his things and left. On the inside, the man was happy he got rid of them.

Three hours passed by and Team 7 jonin sensei still never showed. Sakura was screaming her head off on how late he was. Sasuke and Naruto had developed a twitch in their eye.
"Where the hell is he? He should have been here, three hours ago!" Naruto had to admit he had resisted the urge to set a trap for the late jonin. Sure, he could tolerate thirty minutes late, but a full three hours. He was bored out of his mind.
The door opened to reveal a man that looked to be in his twenties. He wore the standard Konoha green vest and black pants. What stood out the most was his silver hair and mask that covered his eye. His headband covered his left eye.
"You guys are Team 7, huh? My first impression of you guys is… boring. Meet me on the roof in five minutes." The man vanished in a swirl of wind and leaves. The three stared at the spot and started heading towards the room.

"Alright, little genin. How about you tell me about yourselves? Your name, likes, dislikes, and dreams for the future." The man stated lazily like he didn't care.
"How about you go first sensei? We don't know anything about you." Sakura asked the silver haired jonin. Said person sighed and replied.
"My name is Kakashi Hatake. There are things I like and things I dislike. I have many hobbies. My dreams? I don't feel like telling you that. Your turn now, blonde." The genin looked at him incredulously.
"All we know is his name." They thought simultaneously.
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki. My likes are ramen, poisons, and making new friends. My dislikes are rapist, traitors, and those that judge before knowing. Some hobbies I have is to make different types of poisons with plants and animals. My dream for the future is to be famous worldwide and be known for a long time." Kakashi eye looked at him with curiosity. He didn't understand why anyone would LIKE poison, but it wasn't any of his business.
"You next pinky." Sakura glared at Kakashi.
"My name is Sakura Haruno. My likes are… I mean the person I like is…" She looked at Sasuke with a blush on her face. Too bad he wasn't paying attention. "My hobbies are, uh…" Again, she was stuttering. "My dream for the future is, hmm." She looked at Sasuke again and squealed.
"And what do you dislike?" The silver haired man asked. He felt a little disappointed at her behavior.
"Ino and Naruto!" Naruto grumbled. One little mistake and it follows him for years.
'Girls her age are only interested in boys and looks. If they become genin I will have to change that.' Kakashi looked at the dark haired boy. "Your turn, Mr. Sunshine." Sasuke glared at him.
"My name is Sasuke Uchiha. I hate a lot of things and don't particularly like anything. What I have is not a dream because I will make it a reality. I will restore my clan and destroy a certain someone." The was silence for about an minute.
'Sasuke-kun is so cool.'
'He needs to change. Revenge will get him nowhere, but sadness and loneliness.'
'Just as I thought, Itachi made a bad impact.'
"That's good that you guys have your on ideals. Starting tomorrow, we will begin a mission." This caused them to look at him with curiosity.
"What kind of mission Kakashi-sensei?" Sakura asked. She didn't think they would start missions so early.
"The four of us are going to do a survival exercise. You see, out of 27 graduates that graduated, only nine will become real genin. 18 will be weeded out and sent back to the academy. So, in other words, you make it or you don't. At the least, you have a 66% chance of failing." The trio looked at the man with slight shock.
"Hold on sensei. What's the point of the graduation exam then?" Naruto questioned.
"Oh, that? That was to select candidates that had potential to make real genin. I decide if you are ready to become genin." Team 7 was gazing at their sensei intensely. " You guys are to mean me at training ground seven around five o clock."
'I won't fail. My dream is to be the best there is. I WILL NOT LOSE'
'If I lose, I will be separated from Sasuke-kun. I have to do my best.'
'Losing now will only make me weaker. I have to beat HIM.'
"That's it you guys, you're dismissed. Oh, and don't eat breakfast or you'll throw up." The elite jonin left.
The three kids headed in separate directions. Naruto was going to go train for the test. Sasuke was going to go rest before training. And Sakura was following the avenger and asking for a date.
Naruto was tempted to skip breakfast that morning. He knew that as soon as he ate the poison he would have to go to the rest room eventually. But Magellan had insisted because having an empty stomach would make him weak.
So after eating, he had to go to the bathroom. He had sat on that toilet for about two hours. He was hoping that Kakashi didn't automatically fail them for his tardiness. Although, it wouldn't be fair since he was THREE hours late.
When the blond arrived to the training field, he saw his two teammates asleep. It amused him to see Sakura's head on Sasuke's. Not wanting to disturb them, Naruto went towards a tree to take a nap of his own.
"Morning everyone. Ready to start?" This is what woke up the trio. Naruto simply stood up and yawned. Sasuke was looking down, twitching madly at having Sakura in his lap. The girl was blushing furiously. After recovering their bearings Sakura pointed towards him.
"YOU'RE LATE!" The males winced a bit.
"Well, a black cat crossed my path, so I had to take the long way." Naruto growled at the idiotic lie. This caused Kakashi to cough. He walked towards a little stump and put a clock on it. "Ah, here we go. This clock is set for noon." The mam pulled out two silver bells and jingled them a bit.
"Your mission is very simple. You have to take these bells from me. If you can't get them noon then you'll go without lunch. I'll tie you to those post and eat in front of you." Sasuke and Sakura's stomachs growled from hunger while Naruto looked calm. This caused Kakashi to smile inwardly.
'Good. He knows that you should never skip breakfast because it could result in failure.' That's when Sakura notice something important.
"Wait, hold on. There are three of us. Why are there only two bells?" The jonin looked at them seriously.
"With only two bells, one of you will tied to that post. That person will automatically be disqualified and sent to the academy." There was tension in the air. All three of them refused to go back to the academy after their hard work. The man eye smiled at their determination.
"Start!"
Well, there it is. I had a longer version, but I wanted to update this fast. I didn't want you guys to think I quit on this. Out of all the stories, this seems to be people's favorites. Please excuse my bad grammer. I noticed a lot of green lines in my Microsoft Word 2010.
