Chapter 7

Kick.

"Blasted Minato. Who does he think he is?."

Punch.

"Don't answer that."

Naruto turned her angry glare towards Kakashi, and decided that he was a better punching bag than her poor wall.

"Hey! Why are you kicking me? This isn't my problem!"

"You didn't try to stop him!"

"Well, I did have a very big part in making him a grandfather, a very young grandfather, so I don't think he's too happy with me at the moment."

The blonde huffed.

"That one mission you went on with me was the only mission you had done in almost 2 years, Naruto. This is the best deal if you don't want to go out on missions every other day."

"Ugh, fine. I'll meet the brats."

"Jōnin Naruto, meet your new team, Haruno Sakura, Uchiha Sasuke, Namikaze Mitsuhiro and Namikaze Mito."

What the fuck? He never said anything about the twins!

"No."

The Chūnin, Iruka, glanced around nervously.

"This is the team that has been assigned to you, Jōnin Naruto."

"I know, and I'm saying I don't want them. Besides, I believe Konoha has a 4 people squad system, not 5."

"Well yes, but the Hokage has made an exception-"

"The minute the words 'Hokage' and 'Exception' are in the same sentence, is my cue to leave."

"Who do you think you are!. We are-"

Naruto abruptly turned toward the pink haired girl and gave her a baleful glare.

"Who am I? None of your concern. And frankly, I couldn't care less about who you are."

The pinkette stared at the blonde, mouth open.

"Sensei! Is she allowed to talk to us like that?"

Iruka laughed nervously, caught between a rock and a hard place.

"Well, Sakura-chan, she does outrank all of us..."

"But Mito and Mitsuhiro are the Hokage's kids!" Sakura called out, completely oblivious to the glares of both said redheads.

To Sakura's surprise, Naruto started laughing. "The worst that your precious Hokage would do to me is remove me from being your Sensei, and believe me when I say that that would be more of a blessing than a curse."

The raven haired boy who had remained quiet throughout the entire conversation scoffed.

Naruto turned to the raven haired boy. "And you are?"

The boy frowned. How does she not know who I am? Everyone knows me.

"Uchiha Sasuke."

"Itachi's little brat, huh?. You two actually don't look that much alike."

Iruka's jaw dropped. "I don't think that's an appropriate topic, Jōni-"

Naruto laughed. "You don't need to be so formal with me. And get that stick out of your ass will you?. The boy can handle it."

She then turned to eye said boy. "I think."

"Y-you know him?."

"He was only a year or two older than me. We went on a few missions together."

The youngest Uchiha's confusion quickly turned to anger. "Tell me about him!"

"Not until you calm down."

"I am an Uchiha! I should know!"

Naruto bent down to be eye level with the boy. "Then prove it. Uchiha's are bred loyal – though to whom is up to debate- and strong. Until you can do that, you'll just be another little boy trying to make it big to me."

The boys eyes widened in shock and the pinkette next to him basically started spitting fire out at Naruto.

Naruto stared at her in mild amusement as the girl started yelling at her. "You can't speak to Sasuke-kun like that!"

"Why not?"

"Because he's Sasuke-kun!"

"And what is so special about Sasuke-kun?"

"He's cute and amazing and-"

Naruto rolled her eyes at the hearts that appeared in the pinkette's eyes as she fell to the ground.

Umm... What's her name again?

"Welcome to the third training ground, kids." Naruto sounded unbelievably bored; surprising, considering she was being given the chance to either pass or fail her siblings.

I'm going to get a lot of crap from Kushina if I fail this team, but then I'll have to deal with them almost everyday if I don't!

Naruto's internal whining was interrupted by a Kunai being thrown at her. She easily parried the attack with a Kunai of her own. She stared at the culprit, her younger brother.

"Got a little carried away, did you?"

The boy stared at her blankly. "I'm bored. I want to get this over with."

Naruto raised one unimpressed eyebrow at the child. "You're going to be mincemeat on the battlefield with an attitude like that."

The boy looked shocked. Clearly, no one ever tried to correct him.

"What's your name again? Mitsu-something?"

"Mitsuhiro." The boy managed to grind out.

Naruto looked completely nonplussed in the face of the boy's ire.

"Meh. I think I'll call you Mitsu."

This time, the boy's jaw dropped. "B-but Mitsu is a girls name!"

"So?"

"I don't want to be called that!"

The blonde's eyes glinted dangerously. "What are you going to do about it, Mitsu-chan?."

"Don't pick on my brother!"

Mito yelled as hair started forming to look like the tails of the Kyūbi.

"Oh this is just great. I have to deal with a mini Kushina as well."

Sasuke and Sakura looked taken aback as no one disrespected the Hokage's family so openly and easily.

Sakura stared at her in awe. Who is she?

Because one thing was for sure, and that was that Naruto was no normal Jōnin.

"Okay, bakas. Time to get this show started."

Naruto glanced at each of them, silently evaluating them.

"I have 3 bells, and whoever manages to get them from me passes."

Sakura gulped. She knew that she was easily the weakest out of all of them. "And the one that doesn't?"

Naruto grinned. "Simple. He/She goes back to the academy."

"Oh, and one more thing. If you want these, you better come at me with the intent to kill."

The 4 Genin just stood there openly gaping at Naruto.

"Well what the hell are you waiting for? Disperse, attack, do something"

Naruto watched gleefully as all 4 of them glared at each other and jumped in different directions.

This is going to be fun.

Sasuke was the first one to attack. He decided on a head on charge, going straight for Naruto's jugular.

Naruto easily blocked him by knocking his feet off the ground and sent him flying across the clearing with a chakra enhanced punch to the stomach.

Naruto rolled her eyes.

At least he's taking my words seriously.

Mitsuhiro watched with awe as his sister practically vibrated with anger.

"Mito, what are we going to do?"

The redheaded girl practically growled. "We are going to get those bells from our oh so dear onee-san, of course."

Mitsuhiro winced when he heard the sarcasm practically drip from his sister's words.

He took a tentative step forwards.

"Uh, quick question. Why do you hate her so much?"

He exhaled deeply as he dodged a right hook from his sister, only to get winded when a well aimed kick didn't miss.

Fury blazed in Mito's eyes as she yelled "I do not hate her!"

Suddenly, it was pin drop silent except for the sounds of the birds flying away from their perches on the trees.

"Way to give away our position, Mito."

The young girl blushed. "That was stupid. I don't know, okay?. I just don't like her."

Mitsuhiro's eyes softened as he stared at his sister. "Scared that if she manages to get back into our family again, you wouldn't be daddy's little girl, huh?"

He watched as his sisters shoulders dropped in acceptance. "I'm the Kyūbi no Jinchūriki and I have always been praised as such. She became a Jōnin years before we even made Genin, let alone graduate the academy. I just feel like she's more talented than me; I don't feel good enough."

The boy hummed thoughtfully. "In all honesty, she probably is more talented than you. But talent alone isn't enough to be elevated to the rank that she holds now. I'm sure that took years of hard work."

"Jeez, way to make me feel better, Mitsu-chan."

"Don't call me that."

"Oh? And you're going to stop me?"

Both of their heads snapped towards the bushes when they heard a rustle. They both watched as Naruto emerged, a sheepish look gracing her features.

"Gomen, but I believe that you have an exam to finish, no?"

Mito narrowed her eyes. "Were you eavesdropping?"

"What do you think?"

"You had no right."

Naruto shrugged. "Never stopped me before. Don't worry, you can have Minato. I don't want him nor need him. And my son doesn't either."

"Then take him and get out."

Naruto lay down on the ground. "Get out to where, exactly?"

"Out of Konoha."

"So you want me to get labelled as a missing nin, risk my son's life, and spend my entire life on the run?"

Mito's cheeks flushed with color; embarrassment evident.

"I didn't think that far."

"Clearly. As much as I hate to admit it, staying in Konoha has more advantages than disadvantages- for now, atleast."

An awkward silence settled between the three siblings.

Naruto coughed and shook the bells that were attached to her hip. "Anyways- don't you have to get these from me?"

In another part of Konoha, Kakashi sat on a chair, Icha Icha discarded by his side: his mood pensive.

Sakumo's second birthday was just around the corner and Kakashi didn't know what to do. In all candor, that boy spent majority of his time with his mother and he honestly didn't know what to get the toddler.

He shuddered as he remembered a specific conversation he had with Naruto that he wanted to forget.

"Kakashi~" The happy mother singsonged her way towards the older man.

Kakashi reluctantly lowered his book to look at the girl. "What do you want?"

She beamed at him. "You know, Sakumo is going to turn 2 in a few months, and I was thinking that I should start potty training him, ne?."

The Hatake blanched. "Why are you telling me this?..."

"Well, you are always complaining that you never get to spend enough time with him, so I figured that you wouldn't mind doing it. After all, Sakumo is an inquisitive child, and I really don't want to deal with questions about our differing anatomies just yet.. But if you were to show him how to do it, we shouldn't have a problem, yeah?"

The silver haired man frantically looked around him. Desperation clutched at him as he tried to figure out a way to dissuade her.

"It's never too soon to be learning about the human anatomy..."

The blonde glared at him. "Our son is a toddler. A toddler! And the way you said that sounded so wrong on so many levels..."

The man groaned as he was brought out of his reverie.

Can I really teach a kid how to pee inside a toilet?

HEYO PEOPLE

Sorry for the very very very late update. It was a mix of being on holiday, coming back and still being in a holiday mood, lol. And I was having too much fun with my new iPad to part with it, hehe.

THIS WAS A VERY BIG FILLER.

Why did I write it?

Because relationships need to be made and bonds have to be formed.

It sucks. I just wish I could just dive head first into the plot but then you guys would have trouble understanding what the hell is going on. *sighs*

But we did get a tiny glimpse into the inner workings of Mito's mind, yeah?.

If you didn't get it; she is terrified of being replaced. Her parents abandoned one child, who's to stay they wouldn't abandon another?

But fillers will soon be over!

Plus Sasuke has been introduced! May Sauke - Itachi drama ensue!

And that last part was just me tormenting poor Kakashi. And as I have – sorry, had- no idea at which age that parents generally start potty training their kids, I decided to go to one of those baby care sites.

I really really wish I didn't.

I'm scarred for life from some of the stuff I saw. Congrats random baby care site, I will never have kids.

Xoxo,

Mrs. Sabaku no Gaara.
