Kakashi groaned as he woke up. He really didn't want today to happen. He'd been able to successfully avoid the blonde reminder of his past for the majority of his stay at the Uchiha Estate, but now that was over. He'd have to test the boy to be a part f hiss genin team.
'Damn that woman.' Kakashi thought with one bitter tone. Ever since she officially entered his life, she's done nothing but ruin in. Worst part was, the Hokage let her!
"Oi, Kakashi, I made breakfast!" The She-Devil yelled from the kitchen. His little genins had already left for school, so it was only him and her. 'At least she is an amazing cook.' He thought as the smell of eggs, hash browns, bacon, sausage, and seasoned mushrooms wafted through the air.
Kakashi trudged downstairs, only wearing his sleeping pants. It was only Hitomi, and she'd seen him shirtless and maskless before. "Maa, all this for me?" He asked in a fake jovial tone.
"Oh shut up. Cooking is the only thing keeping me from that damnable sensei. You're gonna have a rough day, so this works out for everyone." She said to him.
"Maa, did you have to let him grow hit hair to look like Minato-sensei's? And completely change his wardrobe? The jumpsuit was silly enough to pretend he wasn't their's." Kakashi complained.
He saw her narrow her eyes a bit. "You know better than to mention that monstrosity to me. IT was adorable when he was young, but he is a ninja now and it will not do. The Hokage promised to tell him about his furry friend if he passes your test, so he'll need his hero to guide him. He admires the Fourth, so I will help him emulate his hero while still being true to himself." He halfway listened to her rant.
"Oh, what if he wanted those open toed shoes his hero wore?" Kakashi felt like being testy today.
He could feel her malicious glare on him. "No. Just no. It is bad enough Sasuke wants to be little troll and wear them just to annoy me. My adorable one will not wear those Jashin-awful things as long as I have a say in anything."
Kakashi sighed. "I can never get a break." He said before pulling out his infamous Icha Icha book to begin reading.
He could hear Hitomi's sigh. She at least understood how hard it was to have the two boys on his genin team. One was the son of his beloved sensei, and the other was the younger brother of the boy he failed to help in ANBU. "I'll make you a deal. You can move into the house next door if they pass your test tomorrow."
Kakashi's eyes shot up, though only one was visible. "Maa, I thought you wanted me under your supervision." He tried to sound nonchalant.
He could see her rolling her eyes. "It's been hard enough for you to live in the same house and avoid them. As long as you're nearby I don't see why you can't leave the nest."
He gave her a closed eye smile. "I will gladly accept your offer."
"You still have to do the dinner things, and that is only if they pass." Hitomi clarified.
He patted her on the head. "I no longer hate you." He said as if it was a privilege.
"Gee thanks. I'll go jump up and down in joy now that my life's mission is complete." He heard her say in a deadpan voice.
"You're welcome." He said to her before going back to eating. 'Maybe that demon isn't as bad as he thought.'

Naruto was bored.
Him, Sasuke, and the beautiful Sakura-chan ended up on a team and had been waiting for their Jonin Sensei for a few hours now. It was ridiculous! It was almost evening!
Looking at the eraser in his hand, he got a devilish smirk. "Teme, I think we should prank our sensei in revenge for him being late." He said to his friend.
"Naruto! There is no way a Jonin would fall for that!" Sakura yelled.
Sasuke smirked a bit. "Why not connect that smoke tag you made to it, Dobe?" He offered, leaving Sakura frozen in shock.
In all her stalki-research, yes research, she never knew Sasuke pranked with Naruto.
Naruto's eyes lit up. "That's genius!" He immediately set to work to connect the two before their sensei showed up.
"I can't reach it." He said as he tried to get closer to the top of the door.
Sakura snapped out of it, and decided to help. "Er, lift me up, then I can put it in place." She offered.
Sasuke raised his eyebrow at her choice, but didn't say anything.
"A-ah ok, Sakura-chan." Naruto blushed before picking the girl up.
"Ah, almost there. Aha! In place!" She yelled in victory.
Naruto brought her gently back to the ground and examined the eraser. 'Perfect position.' He thought to himself. "Awesome job, Sakura-chan." He gave her a thumbs up.
"Um, what do you think, Sasuke-kun?" She turned to the dark haired boy with a blush while Naruto deflated.
Before he could answer, not that he was going to anyway, they all heard footsteps coming their way. Sakura and Naruto scrambled to sit next to Sasuke.
The door opened and the eraser fell. Upon contact, a large puff of smoke surrounded the person. Sakura was giggling, Naruto was outright laughing, while Sasuke only smirked.
When the smoke cleared, the silver-haired Jonin was revealed. "I don't like you guys already. Meet me on the roof in 5 minutes." He said before leaving.
Naruto looked at his future teammates and smiled. "Totally worth it. Believe it!"
Sasuke smirked a bit. "Can't say I disagree." Sasuke said before standing up to leave for the roof.
"Eh?" Sakura asked. She looked round and saw that she was alone now. "Ack! Wait for me!" She yelled as she scrambled to run and catch up to the boys of her group.
By the time she caught up, she was a panting mess on the roof. "I-I'm here!" She yelled out.

Hitomi sighed. The plot was finally coming together, and here she was with three brats.
"Um, Sensei, should we introduce ourselves?" A snotty girl in front of her asked.
"If you pass Survival Training tomorrow, sure. Meet me at Training ground 13 tomorrow at 5 A.M. Should you fail, you will be sent back to the Academy." Hitomi announced before leaving.
The three kids just stared at her retreating form.
Hitomi was pissed. These three weren't taking any of this seriously, and actually had the nerve to demand she train them that very second. What brats!
She quickly hid herself and followed them, seeing if they could be friendly with one another.
"Pft. Bye, losers. I'm going to try and find Sasuke-kun." The girl with the ridiculous hairstyle said before leaving.
"Whatever, ms. Stalker. I'm out." The boy covered in bandages like mummy said before he left as well.
"Tch. Good riddance." The last boy said before leaving himself.
'And they fail that part. Epicly. I'll wait at the training grounds to see if they want to check it out.' Hitomi thought to herself.
So Hitomi waited. They never showed up. Around midnight she returned home.
Hitomi grabbed a peach and snacked on it before going to her room. Imagine her surprise when Kakashi was in there laying on the bed reading his porn. "Yo." He said when she opened the door.
Hitomi sweat dropped. "Why are you in my room?" She asked the lazy jonin.
"Any chance of passing your team?" He asked, not taking his eyes off the book.
"They failed the first test, and will probably fail the harder one today. Mind if I pull a you and do the bell test? It's certainly genius." Hitomi asked.
"Eh? Sure, I guess. Will you make Naruto and Sasuke eat breakfast?"
"Naw, I wouldn't want to spoil your fun. You should probably get to your room. Do you have your things packed?" She asked him.
"You're awfully convinced they'll pass." Kakashi said to her as he got up.
"I am. I already have the home prepared for you. It's a bit closer to the compound, so you can have some privacy from the brats. I put in some plates, bowls, silverware, and even some towels. Since we'll both be late in meeting our teams, we can get groceries for it too." Hitomi rambled a bit.
"Maa, you sure are convinced. Sounds like a plan. So where has our loud housemate been lately?" Kakashi asked as he leaned on the wall next to her.
Hitomi rolled her eyes. "T&I needed him and will need him for the rest of the week. Nothing wrong with a break."
"I agree. It's been almost peaceful again." Kakashi said.
Hitomi giggled. "When was there ever peace in this home? It was crazy even when I was a kid."
Kakashi patted her head and left for his own room. "Night, Hitomi."
"Goodnight, Kakashi."

"I think this is a decent amount to start you off with." Hitomi said to her silver haired companion.
"Ok. Oh, and here." He handed her two bells. "You'll probably need bells to do the bell test." He said in a dry tone.
Hitomi smiled as she took the two silver bells. "Thanks, Kakashi. Let's put these away at your place before were torture the potential genins anymore." Hitomi thanked him.
"Fine by me." Kakashi said as he continued to read. It was rather entertaining to watch him carry groceries and read his porn at the same time.
It was near 9 when they finished, so they said goodbye and went to their prospective teams.
"You're late!" Her possible genins yelled out.
"Never said I'd be here at the same time. Now, this is the Bell Test. If you manage to grab a bell before this timer goes of at noon, then you can officially become a genin. If not, then you're going right on back to the Academy." Hitomi informed them, feeling a sadistic ounce of joy at their horrified faces.
"But there are only two bells!" The girl yelled out.
Hitomi smirked. "You're right, there are only two bells. Begin." Hitomi said to them.
When they were brought out of their shock, the girl and the mummified boy attacked while the third teammate hid in the nearby foliage to survey the fight.
"Kiki Chop!" The girl yelled out as she tried jumping high up and coming down on the Uchiha.
Hitomi merely side-stepped while the boy tried to use the silly clone jutsu from the Academy to try and confuse the jonin while both attacked.
Hitomi sighed and jumped above both of him while flicking the real one hard enough to make him lose his concentration.
The second boy used an earth jutsu to travel through the ground and spring up from where Hitomi was standing.
All three tried to land a hit with rapid fire taijutsu all while trying to mess the others up.
"Damn it, Koko, stop it!" The mummy boy yelled as he was jumped on by the girl to propel herself closer to the jonin.
"It's Kiki!" She yelled back after Hitomi dodged her attack.
"Who cares!" The other boy yelled, sending and earth wave to mess up Hitomi's footing.
"Maa, so boring. Try to find me." Hitomi said before using a substitution jutsu to leave the clearing.
The three genin candidates split up to try and find her.
Hitomi stole yet another page from Kakashi's book, and used the Sasuke genjutsu on the Kiki girl, incapacitating her for a moment.
The mummy boy cam across the scene and laughed at the girl before running off to try and find the Uchiha teen, only to find her and get blown back to the clearing.
The last boy had some kind of sense buried deep underneath the annoying-ness, and actually tried to set up traps, however he ended up catching both his teammates instead.
Hitomi returned back to the clearing and laid down.
The alarm went off, and the trio of brats filed in.
"Please give us another chance!"
"Please, please! We worked so hard!"
"It wasn't fair! Just take us on!"
The whined.
"Hn. You failed this objective because not once did you try to work as a team. Being a Ninja involves working with other rather you get along or not. Work harder, stop complaining, and maybe you'll become decent ninjas next time. Go back to the Academy." Hitomi said to them before getting up and leaving.
She could be nice, but she wasn't a nice person.
Sometimes people just forgot that.

Hitomi went over to Training Ground 7 and got there just in time to see Naruto tied to a wooden beam.
"You!"
The genins flinched.
"Pass." Kakashi finished.
"Eh!?" The trio yelled in surprise.
Kakashi went into detail before his oh so famous phrase came up. "Those you abandon the mission are scum, but those who abandon their friends are worse than scum."
"Truer words have never been spoken." Hitomi piped up.
"Maa, I was wondering when you were going to show yourself." Kakashi said as he motioned for the girl to join them.
"Nee-chan!" Naruto and Sasuke said at the same time.
Sakura looked confused. "Um, who are you?" She asked.
Hitomi turned her eyes on the girl. She took in the ridiculous quality of her clothes, the long hair untied, and the obvious obsession over Sasuke. Hitomi blinked at her. "Hitomi Uchiha, now follow me. We need to fix you." She said before going to drag the poor girl off.
"Maa, Hitomi, where are you taking my precious little genin?" Kakashi asked with a sweat drop.
Hitomi looked at him like he was an idiot. "Kakashi, I know you're a prodigy and all, but you do not understand the needs of a kunoichi. She needs ninja quality clothes, a hairstyle to keep her hair out of her face and out of a fight, her bangs either clipped into her hair to grow out or cut, and a few other things. Do you want to do all that?" Kakashi shook his head in horror. "Good." Hitomi said, ignoring Sakura's attempts to escape while she cried for 'Sasuke-kun' to save her.
Sasuke turned his attention to Naruto, knowing anything was useless when Hitomi was on a mission.
One makeover later, and Sakura could only stare at herself in the mirror. "Is that really me?" She asked.
Hitomi bought her pretty much a child version of her 'Boruto' outfit but with boots instead of sandals. Having grabbed four extras, she took the girl to a salon to cut her bangs, then taught the girl how to french braid her hair. Sakura now had layered side bangs, her hair braided, and a new outfit and was looking super cute.
"You are a pretty girl, Sakura, and you don't need to be obsessed with Sasuke to feel like you belong." Hitomi told her.
The pink haired girl blushed. "I don't like Sasuke to fit in." She muttered.
"Thank do you like him for the right reasons?" Hitomi asked her.
"Um, what are the right reasons t like someone?" She brought her bright green eyes up to Hitomi, looking really lost and alone.
"Their personality. Do you think he's nice? Know about his hobbies or life goals? Understand all he's been through and accept him? Want to support him through the good and bad? Genuinely know him and all his little secrets? Can he trust you and you trust him? Little things like that are how you know you truly like someone. Can you really say any of that?" Hitomi went all wise and motherly on the poor girl.
Sakura looked down. "No." She said quietly.
"Then forget about him romantically. You are a pretty girl with a lot of potential to become a strong kunoichi. Focus on that, and becoming the best you, you can become. If you do that, then one day the right person will notice and you can truly like them." Hitomi finished, putting an arm around the young girl.
Sakura gave a tearful smile. No one really believed in her like that before. "Thank you, Hitomi-san."
"San sounds weird. Just call me Hitomi or Nee-chan. I legit don't care." She shrugged it off, though she did ruffle the girl's bangs a bit.
Sakura giggles and wiped away the tears. "Ok, Nee-chan!"

So... What do you think?
Sorry it took longer than normal, I went to Kentucky for a Collage visit and was there for a while with NOTHING to write on. No phone, no laptop, nothing.
I missed you all :/
