Hello all Storm here with a new chapter! This is another story I haven't updated in a while but I'm finally back! Here we'll be seeing Naruto and Mandy being put on a Genin Team, along with some interesting twists. So, without further ado.
I own nothing
Mandy walks onto the screen holding a leash before facing the audience.
"When you own a pet, be sure to show it who's in charge." Mandy stated before walking while dragging a whimpering Yang-Kyūbi along with her
'Too easy.' Thought Mandy as she and Naruto exited the Academy, both sporting their brand new Forehead Protectors, with Naruto having tied his around his forehead, and Mandy tying hers around her waist.
The Genin Test had been pathetically easy for them to complete, all they had to do was demonstrate a successful Transformation, Substitution and Clone Jutsu. The twins had been able to easily perform a Transformation and Substitution, the only Jutsu they couldn't perform was the normal Clone Jutsu, due in part to the fact they had too much Chakra.
Thankfully, they were able to use the Shadow Clone Jutsu, after collecting it, along with all the other Jutsu Scrolls from their parents' home. So, they had been able to pass and become Genin.
After they had gotten their headbands, Naruto and Mandy had then left the Academy, not bothering to stay and be congratulated. Given the fact that the twins didn't really have any friends at the Academy, but not due to the Kyūbi or anything, the Uzumaki siblings were pretty introverted in nature, only ever really spending time with each other.
Plus, Mandy didn't really like most of the girls in the Academy, mostly because they always fawned over her brother, being attracted to his wild and bad boy vibe. She was aware of this, after overhearing some the girls talk about Naruto, before promptly making them run away in tears, after a few well-placed threats and insults.
While she wasn't opposed to the idea of sharing Naruto with other girls. None of the girls in their class met Mandy's standards of being worthy of being in a relationship with her and her brother.
Naruto on the other hand did occasionally hang out with Kiba, Choji, Shikamaru, and Shino, but they were more acquaintances than actual friends. All the other boys though, were openly terrified of Naruto, after seeing what he did to anyone that insulted his sister, or tried getting to close to her.
This also lead to the twin's introverted nature; everyone was too scared of either being mentally ripped apart by Mandy, or physically ripped apart by Naruto. Not to say Mandy couldn't defend herself, but she took a certain satisfaction in watching her brother brutalize their classmates for her.
'Perhaps I should give Naruto a special reward for graduating.' Mandy thought with a small smirk, having a few ideas of what to reward him with.
*Hokage's Office*
Meanwhile, in the Hokage's Office, the Hokage was watching the Academy Students to see which of the graduated. Several Jonin were also present, at least those that were going to be given a Genin Team.
"Alright, now are there any of you that wish to train a specific team. If so, what are your reasons why." Sarutobi said, wanting to see if any of the Jonin wanted to train specific students, before he made any final decisions on the teams.
"I'd like to request Shikamaru Nara, Choji Akimichi, and Ino Yamanaka. They'd do well as a Capture and Interrogation Team, not to mention their fathers' were one of the best teams around, and they could have the potential to surpass them." Said Asuma.
"I wish to train Hinata Hyuga, Shino Aburame, and Kiba Inuzuka. With Hinata's Byakugan, Shino's insects, and Kiba's enhanced senses, they'd be the perfect Tracking Team, and their personalities will hopefully be able to balance each other out." Kurenai said.
"Naruto Uzumaki, Mandy Uzumaki, and Sakura Haruno, Hokage-sama. Naruto and Mandy both have the highest Chakra Reserves in the Academy, higher than even Chunin and most Jonin, allowing them to use plenty of Jutsu without getting tired. While Sakura has the control needed to become a Medic Ninja and Genjutsu Specialist, making for a powerful Assault Team." Said Kakashi.
Hiruzen nodded with their reasoning, while listening to a few more Jonin requesting specific students. The rest of the Jonin remained silent, not minding what Genin they get as a team, if they pass the true Genin Test that is.
"Very well, I've heard all your recommendations and will take them into account. Return here in three days to be assigned your teams. Dismissed." Sarutobi said, with the Jonin nodding, before they all filed out of the office.
However, once all the Jonin had left the office, someone else soon came in, revealing Fugaku Uchiha, Head of the Uchiha Clan and leader of the Military Police Force.
"Fugaku, what do you need?" Hiruzen asked.
"Hokage-sama, I was hoping that you might have gotten word on the location of the traitors, or my son." Said Fugaku with a hopeful undertone at the mention of his son, making the Hokage sigh sadly.
With the reveal that Obito Uchiha had been the one responsible for the Kyūbi Attack, the Uchiha Clan didn't face as much stigma as they could have, if it was only known someone with the Sharingan was responsible. Unfortunately, there were still those in the village that held some resentment and distrust to the Uchiha Clan, given Obito himself was an Uchiha. Many believing that if one Uchiha caused the Kyūbi Attack, what's to stop another from doing the same, or even the entire clan attacking.
This, combined with the already existing resentment building within the Uchiha Clan, lead to a good number of them becoming even more insistent on staging a Coup. Thankfully, Fugaku had calmed most of his clan down, by convincing them that it could have been far worse for them, and that they'd just prove they were still loyal to Konoha, with a Coup only making matters worse for them.
Unfortunately, not all of the Uchiha were content with this, with it eventually leading to a good portion of the Uchiha Clan defecting from Konoha, led by Yashiro Uchiha. One of the most vocal supporters of the idea to overthrow the current leadership in Konoha. However, before they left Konoha, the defectors had kidnapped Fugaku's youngest son, Sasuke, in an act of spite.
That had been six years ago, and so far, they still haven't found any sign of the defectors, or Sasuke.
"I'm sorry, Fugaku, but we haven't found a trace of either. I've sent Anbu to all the Uchiha Stronghold and Fortresses that were used during the Clan Wars, along with sending a squad to Sora-ku to speak with Nekobaa, as well." Hiruzen said, with Fugaku looking down at this, having given the Hokage the locations of the Uchiha Clan's old Strongholds and Fortresses, that were used during the Warring States Era, believing that the defectors might have been using one of them as a base.
"I see. What about locating Tsunade?" Fugaku asked.
To make matters worse for the remaining Uchiha, Fugaku and Mikoto's eldest son, Itachi, has come down with an illness that was slowly killing him. Even worse, was the fact that Tsunade was the only person that could heal him. Fugaku had begged the Hokage to call Tsunade back to the village and save his son, as he wasn't sure that he and Mikoto could handle losing Itachi, after having lost Sasuke.
So far though, all the responses Sarutobi has gotten from his student were saying the same thing. That Tsunade would never come back to Konoha, no matter what.
"That is going much better, I finally managed to convince Tsunade to come back to the village, and she should be here within a week. Unfortunately, it was only after I threatened to cut her off from the Senju and Uzumaki Clans assets, and mark her down as a Missing-Nin." Hiruzen said, with Fugaku feeling relieved to hear good news for a change, but he still clenched his fists at hearing that it took being threatened to be labeled as a traitor to make Tsunade comeback to heal his son.
"Hokage-sama, may I speak freely?" Fugaku asked.
"You may." Sarutobi replied, with the Uchiha Clan Head nodding in thanks.
"Putting aside the blood feud and rivalry between the Senju and Uchiha, Tsunade is acting like a spoiled child, who cares more about drinking herself to the grave, while wasting away the fortune of two of Konoha's Founding Clans. One of which she shouldn't even have access to, but still uses it because of her grandmother. She hasn't set foot in Konoha for over a decade, and not once has reported in either in person, with a clone or her summons. If she was a Ninja from another village, she would have already been marked down as a Missing-Nin for her behavior. I mean no offense Hokage-sama, but you should have forced Tsunade back to the village years ago." Fugaku said bluntly.
Though Fugaku could understand why Tsunade left, after the death of her brother and her fiancée, but there was also a difference between mourning death and running away from your problems.
Death was part of being a Ninja, both your own and your loved ones, especially in times of war, which is when Nawaki and Dan both died. While it was expected for Tsunade to mourn there loss, she is refusing to accept it, and instead decided to drown herself in Sake and Gambling Debts. Not to mention, she wasn't the only one who's lost friends and family. Fugaku, himself, witnessed his best friend die in the Third War, leading to him awakening his Mangekyo Sharingan, along with losing one son and nearly losing another.
And yet he still manages to continue with his duty.
"No, it's fine Fugaku, and you're right. I should have called Tsunade back years ago, rather than let her gallivant across the Nations. But I always had a soft spot for my old students, and now look where that's gotten me. Out of all the Sannin, I can only really feel pride for training Jiraiya." Hiruzen said, chuckling at the irony.
Between the Clan Heiress, the Prodigy, and the Super Pervert, it was Jiraiya that he was still proud of.
"Right. But thanks again for being able to get Tsunade to come back, Hokage-sama." Fugaku said, before taking his leave.
At least he could finally give Mikoto some good news for once.
*Timeskip – Three Days*
Naruto and Mandy sat in what would soon be there former classroom, as they waited for their teachers to arrive and tell them who their teammates would be, along with their Jonin senseis.
Nothing had really happened over the three days, aside from Naruto and Mandy encountering the Hokage's annoying brat of a grandson. The kid had tried following them around after Mandy had shoved him aside, and Naruto knocked out his instructor.
Though they managed to give him the slip, since he has terrible stealth skills, allowing them to spot where he was hiding.
After a few moments, the door opened and Iruka walked in, with a few students being confused when they didn't see their other teacher, Mizuki, as well.
"Where's Mizuki?" Mandy asked, somewhat curious of where their other teacher was.
"Mizuki has been sent on a long-term mission, so for the foreseeable future, he won't be around." Replied Iruka.
At least that was the cover story for where Mizuki was. In truth, Mizuki had been caught trying to steal the Forbidden Scroll of Seals and was arrested for it. Before being sent to be interrogated, so they can find out if he was working for anyone to steal the scroll.
With that out of the way, Iruka began listing the teams and the senseis.
"Team Seven will consist of Naruto Uzumaki, Mandy Uzumaki, and Sakura Haruno, your sensei is Kakashi Hatake. Team Eight…" Iruka said.
'Hm, Haruno huh.' Mandy thought, while looking at her and her brother's new teammate.
The pink-haired girl was one of the few girls that didn't flirt with her brother, with there being a rumor that Sakura might actually have feelings for her best friend, Ino Yamanaka. Plus, she was one of the few girls that were serious about being a Kunoichi. So the siblings will be willing to tolerate the pinkette, until they became Chunin.
Not only that, they would have Kakashi as their sensei, having heard about him and how strong he was. So, they supposed they could have been stuck on a worse team.
Finally, Iruka finished listing the names and told them that their senseis would be there soon to get them. And not a moment later, the door opened, showing Kakashi standing there, which was a complete and total shock. At least to those that knew of Kakashi and his chronic lateness.
This was due to the revelation that his former teammate, Obito, was the cause of the Kyūbi Attack, which lead to Minato and Kushina's death. At first, Kakashi had fallen into a depression at learning what his friend had done, but he was pulled out of it by his remaining friends.
It also lead to Kakashi no longer showing up late for everything and making lame excuses, given he only started doing that to honor Obito. But now, Kakashi has long since stopped emulating his traitor of a teammate, with the only thing he kept being his motto about teamwork.
"Team Seven, meet me on the roof." Kakashi said, before Shunshining up the roof, with Naruto, Mandy and Sakura going following after him, not a moment later.
*Later*
"Alright, now that we're all here, how about we introduce ourselves. Let's start with names, then go onto our likes, dislikes, hobbies and dreams for the future. I'll start, my name is Kakashi Hatake, I like some things and I dislike other things, I have some hobbies, and haven't really thought about any dreams." Kakashi said, while looking at his students, observing their reactions, or lack of reaction, as Mandy remained scowling.
"Alright pinkie, your turn." Said Kakashi, with Sakura growling lowly at the nickname.
"My name is Sakura Haruno, my likes are my friend Ino, reading, and studying, my dislikes are bullies and people who make fun of me, my hobbies are playing trivia and memorizing new things for my studies, and my dream is to become a great Kunoichi." Sakura said.
'Okay, pretty standard, but that's good. Better than a fangirl.' Kakashi thought.
"Next is blondie." Kakashi said pointing at Naruto, who's eye twitched.
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki, my likes are my sister, training, and ramen, my dislikes are bullies, cowards, and anyone who insults me or Mandy, my hobbies are training, and my dream is…I don't know." Naruto said, shrugging at the end, Kakashi sweatdropping at the last part.
'O…k? Not really what I was expecting, but understandable.' Kakashi thought.
"And lastly the other blo-Mandy." Kakashi said quickly, when Mandy looked at him, saying her name rather the nickname out of fear of her doing something to him.
"My name is Mandy Uzumaki, I don't like anything, except Naruto, I hate everything, except Naruto, my hobbies are none of your business and neither is my goal." Said Mandy with a bored expression.
'Okay, I have a standard Kunoichi Genin, a kid that has anger issues and is protective of his sister, and Mandy.' Kakashi thought.
Something told him he was going to having a lot of headaches in the future.
*Timeskip – Two Weeks*
Two weeks have passed since Team Seven was officially formed. It was surprising for the other Jonin that Kakashi had finally passed a Genin Team. However, when he was asked how his team did on the Bell Test, Kakashi wouldn't answer and only started whimpering, while cuddling his Icha Icha book, much to everyone's confusion or annoyance.
That is until everyone remembered he had Mandy as one of his Genin, and were able to figure just how they managed to pass.
Since then, Kakashi has been teaching his team some Chakra Control Exercises, like Tree Walking and Water Walking, along with giving them a few low ranked Jutsu to learn. As well as teaching them some teamwork exercises for better synergy, though that was more to make it easier for Sakura to work with Naruto and Mandy, since the twins already work great together. Though originally, Kakashi planned to have them only practice teamwork exercises for a while, until he realized that doing that likely wouldn't be good for his health.
He also didn't have them do D-Rank Missions, as he didn't want to have to explain why their clients either run away screaming, or why their pets suddenly go missing.
Currently, Team Seven entered the Hokage's Office, with Kakashi believing they were ready for a C-Rank Mission, as long as it was an easy one.
"Team Seven reporting in for a C-Rank Mission, Hokage-sama." Kakashi said.
The Hokage raised a brow at that, given not many Genin Teams would get a C-Rank Mission this early, most Jonin waiting at least a month or two, before requesting a C-Rank Mission. But Hiruzen nodded and began searching for one they could go on, mostly because he could just feel Mandy burning a hole into his head.
"Here's one. It's a request from a nearby village, apparently a green Baku has been spotted nearby." Said Hiruzen.
"Has it attacked the village or any people?" Kakashi asked, with Sarutobi shaking his head in response.
"No, in fact, from all the reports I've seen, it's perfectly harmless. The request was given, because the villagers want it gone, after getting to annoyed by it." Sarutobi replied.
"Annoyed by it? They requested a Ninja Team to get rid of a Baku, because they're annoyed by it?" Asked Kakashi, wanting to be sure he heard that correctly.
"Yes, I understand how it sounds, but nevertheless, it is a mission." Said Sarutobi, knowing it sounded ridiculous, but it was still a mission.
"Right, well, we'll take it then." Said Kakashi, taking the mission scroll.
'Oh no.' Mandy thought, facepalming, as she realized just who the annoying green Baku is.
And here she was hoping she managed to finally escape the idiots of her past life.
*Later*
"Grim, we're going on our first C-Rank Mission." Mandy said, as she and Naruto entered their apartment.
"Good luck, try not ta die." Replied Grim, while flipping through his paper, only for Mandy to rip out of his hands and tear it up.
"I said, "we'regoing on our first C-Rank Mission", now get ready." Mandy stated, making it clear that Grim was joining them.
"Oh no." Grim muttered, knowing what Mandy really meant was for him to get in the backpack, one piece at a time.
"Well, at least I'll finally get my screen-time." Said Grim, while getting up and following Mandy.
So, what did you think, good. Yep Naruto and Mandy are officially Ninja, along with not really having any friends in the Academy. We then see that the Uchiha Clan is still around, but not united with several Uchiha having defected from the village lead by Yashiro Uchiha, but not after kidnapping a young Sasuke Uchiha, not only that but Tsunade is being forced back to the village to heal Itachi. We also see that with the truth of Obito's involvement in the Kyūbi Attack, Kakashi has stopped emulating his teammate, aside from his motto on teamwork. Finally Team Seven has gone out on their first C-Rank Mission, which will lead to them encountering a familiar green Baku. So, review if you liked go away if you didn't.
Storm out
