Talking- "Talking"
Kyuubi- 'Kyuubi'
Thoughts- 'Thoughts'
Sakura POV
I attacked her first with a few Kunai that I threw at her. She seemed to have dodged them fairly quickly, and all of a sudden she was gone. Front, left, right, behind, the only place left is-
"Got you." Her voice just taunting me as I was now stuck in the earth. Great just great. She embarrassed me in front of MY Sasuke-kun. Ooh it is so on now!
Naruto's POV
I tried helping her out of the hole, but she refuses my help,…..stubborn mule. (Kyuubi is snickering somewhere in her mind.) Ah well, her loss.
"Sakura your taijutsu needs some work; Good job Naruto. I want you to spar with Sasuke now." Lazily ordered Kakashi who still had his eyes in the pervy book. We are now both in our fighting stances. Apparently Sasuke only knows the taijutsu that you learn from the academy. My fighting stance is simple yet effective; I am not a taijutsu master for nothing. I'll let him make the first move. He tried to take a swing to the left and I easily blocked it. He then did a quick round-house kick; I just jumped and did a few twists in midair while landing perfectly on the ground. And in a blink of an eye I was right behind him. It was too late for him to do anything. I punched him and he went flying about fifty meters. (Think of Tsunade's unnatural brute strength (tell you later on how she learned how to do that.)) What amused me was that he got right back up without any real difficulty, and with few scratches. This is going to be fun……………
Sasuke's POV
That hurt like hell. I can hear Sakura screeching my name. Apparently she finally got out of the hole Naruto put her in. When that happened I almost laughed. Keyword is almost. Uchihas don't laugh period. (Totally forgotten about his mother.) Now she's charging at me, I have to make sure she doesn't punch me again. I think I got a concussion from the one earlier, and I could tell she wasn't putting her all into it. It wouldn't hurt to try……….
"Katon: Goukayou no Jutsu!" I think I got her. I hope I didn't hurt her too badly. What the-?! She's gone!
"Nice try. My turn!" I heard her exclaim. I was in my stance, somewhat readying myself for what was to come.
"Taijuu: Kage Bunshin No Jutsu!" Then a thousand, maybe two came after me. I was not ready for this. Now I have an army against me. I could see out of my corner of my eyes that Kakashi finally closed the damn book and was watching the spar. He seemed impressed by Naruto's skill and stamina………. And I have a feeling that there was more to come.
SPARSPARSPARSPARSPARSPARSPARSPARSPARSPARSPARSPARSPARSPARSPA
I have been destroying clones for the past hour, and every time I destroy one, two more seemed to appear. My chakra has been depleted to whereas I can only use taijutsu. This can only end badly, I least I have a new found respect for at least one of my teammates now.

Normal POV
"Sorry Sasuke are you okay?" Questioned Naruto as she cam over to him. Let's just say that the last attack looked very, very, VERY painful.
"Here let me help with your wounds." Stated Naruto as she started healing all the wounds with some sort of medical jutsu.
"What are you doing to MY Sasuke-kun?" Yelled Sakura who looked very pissed off.
"I am healing all his wounds, and if you don't mind I need to concentrate or I might screw something up." Informed Naruto as she continued healing Sasuke's injuries.
"That's reassuring…." Muttered Sasuke.
"There! All done. Hey you guys want to get something to eat somewhere?" Asked Naruto.
"Well I would love to but I need to go see a certain Dolphin-chan. Be here tomorrow morning at eight. Ja!" Then Kakashi poofed out of the Team 7 Training grounds.
"Well what about you guys?" Asked Naruto who was giving the two giant puppy eyes. Sasuke blushed again.
"Hn." Was the reply that came from Sasuke. (Bastard for yes.)
" If Sasuke-kun is going then I am going as well!" Reasoned Sakura.
DINNERDINNERDINNERDINNERDINNERDINNERDINNERDINNERDINNERDIN
As they were walking to the so called 'Great Ichiraku's Ramen Shop (Naruto said it if it wasn't obvious.) they met up with another rookie team; the InoShikoCho group. Ino instantly clinged onto Sasuke like a moth to light.
"Hey get off my Sasuke-kun Ino-pig!" Screamed Sakura as they instantly started arguing over who Sasuke belonged to.
"Does this always happen?" Questioned Naruto who thought that this was ridiculous beyond words.
"Get used to it. You're the new teammate for Team 7 am I correct?"
"Yup! I am Uzumaki Naruto." Stated Naruto as the other two of team ten came over to her and Sasuke who was now free of the two's wrath as they continued arguing.
"Nara Shikamaru. This is Akimichi Chouji, and the one with Sakura is Yamanaka Ino." Informed Shikamaru.
"So are you guys heading to Ichiraku Ramen's as well?" Asked Chouki who seemed to be drooling slightly.
"Hn." ( I don't even have to say who said it…) A few minutes passed by and they were in front of the restaurant.
"Hey Teuchi it's been a while." Exclaimed Naruto as the now six of them were sitting down.
"Naruto?! Is that you? It is you! I haven't seen you for years. So what have you been up to?" Questioned the Owner of the shop.
"Same old, same old. Except for the part when Anko-nii pushed me off of a cliff about four years ago and called it training. I just think that is was revenge for when I put itching powder in her sleeping bag." Replied Naruto who now had everyone staring at her wide eyed.
"But enough of that. Let's eat." Said Teuchi who was trying to change the subject." Naruto then turned to Chouji who was sitting right next to her.
"Hey Chouji, you seem like the type of guy who likes his ramen. Am I correct?" Inquired Naruto. Chouji was staring at the pretty girl was now gazing at her with anger. Everyone was preparing for the worst.
"Are you implying that I am-" Chouji was interrupted by Naruto.
"No. I was just wandering if you want a little competition between the two of us. The contest is to see who can eat the most ramen. The winner wins, and the lose has to pay for the bill for the winner and themselves. Do we have a deal?" Asked Naruto who was grinning like a madman.
"Deal." Agreed Chouji, thinking that this will be a cinch.
'She just got herself into a hole. I feel sorry…..troublesome girl.' Though Shikamaru who knew all too well of Chouji's eating habits.
ICHIRAKUICHIRAKUICHIRAKUICHIRAKUICHIRAKUICHIRAKUICHIRAKUICHI
Everyone could only gape. Even Chouji. Chouji had 17 bowls. Naruto had 34 bowls. Inwardly everyone was like crap! How many stomachs could that girl have?!
"Looks like I win, Chouji-kun." Said Naruto who was still slurping up the noodles.
'Stop I can only handle oh so much of this filth, kit.'
'But this stuff is heaven!!'
"Only you think that type of stuff. Besides I think you should stop eating. First impressions last a lifetime; and I don't think Chouji wants to remember you making him go bankrupt.'
'Fine just after this bowl.' As Naruto and Kyuubi were having their regular chat/argument Sakura was the first person to speak;
"You are no lady. NO ONE should eat that much. It makes you a PIG!" Screeched Sakura. Then Ino included something in the conversation as well.
"That is why Sasuke-kun will never like you. No one wants a person who's dumps everything into their mouth." Sakura agreed by nodding. In Sasuke's mind he was furious that their criticizing his Naruto. Wait!? His?!
"Ok whatever. Better than starving yourself and looking like toothpicks. By the way I can see your ribcages." ( Always wondered why people do that to themselves.) Sasuke, Shikamaru, and Chouji were somewhat chuckling. Ino and Sakura were furious.
"And also, I burn all of it when I train unlike you two who probably became ninja's to look at boys. Thanks for the meal Chouji-kun. See you two at the training grounds tomorrow." Affirmed Naruto as she disappeared in a blink of an eye. Sakura and Ino were very pissed off after that and stormed off somewhere to get rid of all their angst. (If that is possible.) Sasuke went home after a few minutes Naruto left. Chouji sighed and paid the hefty bill and left with Shikamaru to their homes. Let's just say that Chouji will be doing many missions for a long, long, long time.

I didn't mean to make Sakura and Ino bitches. I do in fact somewhat like them. They will probably be nicer later on in the story. Also I haven't decided what Naruto's gekkai genkai will be. If you guys got any suggestions you can leave a review or email me. Zai Zhen.
