AN: Hello everyone, I hope you guys enjoyed chapter 4. Now onto chapter 5 :)
Chapter 5: Team Seven
Naruto looks at his new appearance in the mirror. Not only had Iruka-sensei bought him ramen, but also new clothes as well. Blonde spiky hair with jaw length bangs; that frames the side of his face. A long sleeve fish net under his light orange jacket with black pants and blue sandals. What stood out most was the blue Konoha headband around his forehead.
'My dream...it is finally starting to happen', thought our blonde hero. 'Oi don't you have somewhere to be?', chimes Kurama.
'Ahh shit! I'm going to have to run again', as Naruto burst thorough the door. 'I wish I had a dollar everytime you realize you were going to be late to something', chuckle the fox.
~Academy~
BANG!
Naruto files in and knocks a couple of people down. Naruto himself was fine, but the couple of people, well they found had themselves in a embarrassing situation.
It was some civilian kid and no other than Sasuke Uchiha. Both boys were kissing and all of Sasuke's fan girls hearts were broken.
"Gomen gomen", said Naruto. "I was running too fast and knock into you two". "Naruto", came low voice from Sasuke. "Don't. Ever. Do. That. Again."
"What's going to happen if I do?", Naruto responded staring at Sasuke. Both boys stared at each other and sat down; realizing that the argument was unnecessary. Sakura however thought otherwise.
"Oi Naruto, watch where your going. You hit Sasuke-kun", said the pink haired girl. Naruto's response was he didn't paid no mind to her and said "Hmm did you say something?"
~Meanwhile in Hokage's Office~
A silver haired jounin sneezes. The other jounins laughed while watching the orb.
~End~
Sakura swings her fist back and aim for Naruto's head, but Naruto sees it and dodge it; therefore Sakura's fist puts a dent in the desk.
'Thanks the heavens I dodged that. This girl is insane', thought Naruto and Sakura; blushed and took a seat.
After that, Iruka comes in to announce the teams. "Now everyone, I am proud of every single one of you", especially you Naruto' and the road of ninja's life is dangerous. So strive forward and don't back down!" This seems to lift everyone spirits, even a lazy Shikamauru. "Now Team 10 consist of Shikamaru Nara, Ino Yamanaka, and Choji Akimichi". "Team 9 is still active, so Team 8 is Kiba Inuzuka, Shino Aburame, and Hinata Hyuga". Team 7 is Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno, and...Naruto Uzumaki", finished Iruka.
'I'm with Naruto; oh god!'
'The dobe and her; they're just going to hold me back and be a waste of time'.
'Fuck! I'm with two people that can't stand me'. 'Everything happens for a reason kit; relax', said Kurama.
"Your senseis will be here in an hour; good luck everyone", said Iruka.
~Two hours later~
"THERE IS NO WAY THAT OUR SENSEI IS TWO HOURS LATE", screamed Sakura. Naruto and Sasuke winced at the volume of Sakura. "Oi Sakura-chan, I have a feeling he will be here soon; don't worry", said Naruto. "Let's bet on some money", suggest Sakura. "YOSH! We have a bet then". Two minutes later a silver haired ninja came in.
'GODDAMNIT', yelled inner Sakura. "Sorry everyone I got lost on the path of life", said the man. 'No fucking way', they collectively thought. "Let's go up on the roof and get to know each other", and the sliver haired man used the Shunshin no Jutsu. 'Ooo I gotta learn that', thought Naruto with stars in his eyes.
"Now that everyone is here. I will begin. My name is Kakashi Hatake. My likes? I don't really have any likes. I don't have no dislikes either and my hobbies are nothing. Dreams? Nah I don't have any", the masked ninja lazily said. "Pinky you go".
"Ohh me?", Sakura blushes. My name is Sakura Haruno. "Well my likes are...", looking over to Sasuke. 'Oh boy; this is going to be a long day with this team if they pass', thought Kakashi. "My dislikes are NARUTO-BAKA!" "Hmm, did you say something?", asked Naruto. 'Ooo I like this kid', Kakashi again thought. "My dream is...", once again looking over to Sasuke. "Ooh kay. Well next up is the bright orange one; your turn".
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki!". "My likes are training and eating ramen. My dislikes? Well I dislike people who judge other people getting to know them. Hobbies? I don't really know..but my dream". Everything got quiet; everyone was focus on Naruto and no one knew why. "My dream is to become one of the strongest ninjas that protects the village; I'm going to earn merit and become the greatest Hokage ever!". Everyone was quiet. Naruto had this aura that you can see he really believed that he can achieve his dream and there was no stopping him. 'He really is sensei's son. Lord Hokage told me he knows about his parents and I will tell him stories later', thought Kakashi.
"Now dark one; you go", stated Kakashi.
"My name is Sasuke Uchiha. I don't have any likes, but I do have one dislike. It is a certain man, that I despise more than anything. My hobbies are training and my dream is to kill that certain man", Sasuke said in a monotone voice. Sasuke too, gain a aura that he meant what he said. 'I respect the ambition, but the path he is going on is dark and dangerous. I gotta watch him', stated Kakashi to himself.
"Well everyone meet at training ground 7 for your test at 7am in the morning; oi and if you don't pass you will get send back to the academy, have fun". "Oh yeah don't eat breakfast", as he shunshin away.
'WHAT!', everyone thought.
"I guess I will see guys tomorrow; we got this", as Naruto burst off home.
~The next day at 6:30am~
"Hmm I wonder is I should eat breakfast", Naruto groggily said. 'Are you a baka? Yes eat breakfast; he is fooling you so you will be tired and unaware. You must always go into battle prepare, at least with food', came the great wisdom of Kurama.
"Alright you make a point", Naruto said. 'What a show off', he thought and with that he made his breakfast.
~Training ground 7~
Naruto arrived to see Sasuke and Sakura standing there before him. 'Hahaa, Sasuke looks miserable', Naruto thought. "Oiiii minna (everyone) how are you two?", asked a chuckling Naruto. Sasuke gave him a death stare, while Sakura was confused. "So where is that masked bastard?", Naruto asked the group. Sasuke shrugged and Sakura said, "Naruto show some respect; he is our sensei". "Not yet", responded Naruto.
Just on cue Kakashi came out of nowhere. "Wowww the man that was two hours late yesterday, came on time today", said a confused Naruto. "Well ninjas must always expect the unexpected", said Kakashi.
"Now", Kakashi said; bringing out two bells. "Which ever two get these two bells you will pass, but the one that doesn't will get send back to the Academy". Everyone gasped and were shocked to hear about their test.
'That doesn't even make any sense', thought Naruto. '*yawn* what doesn't make any sense?', said a tired Kurama. 'Good morning sleeping beauty. The test is what; he is a jounin and wants us to beat him enough to take two bells from him? Yeah that's not happening', responded Naruto. 'Well you have a team, and there's no I in team', said Kurama. 'Yeah you right, but there's a M,E in that motherfucker'( shoutout to Kobe Bryant; RIP), said Naruto. 'Naruto don't be a fool and use ur head, now nap time', said Kurama. 'Your no help'.
"The test begins in three...two...one..go!", yelled Kakashi. Everyone ran away and hide to look for an opening, except for Naruto. "Soo your not going to hide and look for an opening?", asked Kakashi. "Hell no. There's no way I can take you down myself, but *cough* if you know, you know", said Naruto.
'Excellent', Kakashi thought. 'He understood the purpose of the test immediately; great observation'. "Well I don't think the other two caught on", said Kakashi. "Well you know, there's always a chance; now let's fight!", said Naruto.
Kakashi saw the gleam in his eyes and knew he couldn't read Icha Icha Paradise, while fighting him. 'If he is anything like sensei than this is going to be interesting', thought Kakashi.
Naruto getting into his Humming Bird stance. 'I stand corrected', thought Kakashi again. "Let's see what you got Naruto. Lesson one: Taijustu".
Naruto burst towards Kakashi with a great level of speed for a genin. 'Interesting', the masked ninja thought. Naruto, then leap up for a swinging kick to Kakashi's head, but failed once he saw Kakashi ducked and getting ready to counter. 'Kage Bunshin no Jutsu', Naruto thought and three other clones came out and one pushed Naruto out of the away getting hit. The two clones attack Kakashi from either side; Both Narutos' went to punch Kakashi and Kakashi effortlessly caught their fist and threw them away against a tree. "Now Naruto you gotta try harder than that", said Kakashi. There was no reply as the original Naruto disappear. "Shunshin no Jutsu", came from Naruto out of nowhere and caught Kakashi by surprise. 'When did he learn that? And how!', Kakashi thought. Using the surprise to his advantage; Naruto went into a stance, that Kakashi knew all too well. 'The Gōken?! How are earth does he know that!' A quick powerful punch went to Kakashi gut and threw him off balance. 'This kid packs a punch; very well. But he's a 100 years too early to beat me', thought the silver haired ninja. Kakashi regain his balance and gave Naruto a barrage of punches and kicks. Naruto's response was to evade and block a few, but Kakashi was too quick and powerful. Ultimately, Naruto failed to block Kakashi punched to his gut and Naruto collapsed.
'Goddamnit! That punch knocked the wind out of me', Naruto struggling to get up. "Naruto you did well with the Shunshin; it caught me by surprised.", said Kakashi. He then went to find the others.
~With Sakura~
Sakura was in awe on how Naruto punched Kakashi-sensei in the gut. 'How did Naruto do that to our sensei?! There's no way!', she thought.
"Oi Sakura, guess what", said a hidden figure. "Huh?!", Sakura screamed. The hidden figure was Kakashi and cast a genjutsu on her. Sakura screamed and fainted.
"Wow I guess I did a bit too much, but Sakura that's lesson two: Genjutsu", Kakashi said one eye letter U smile while scratching his head.
~End~
~With Sasuke~
Sasuke heard Sakura scream and went over to the sound. 'How the hell did Naruto lay a hit on Kakashi?! I couldn't even seen what he did!', Sasuke angrily thought to himself.
"Oi Sasuke, it's your turn", Kakashi said while coming out of the tree. Sasuke rushed towards Kakashi and fires a barrage of punches. Kakashi easily blocks all of them, but then Sasuke threw a punch to his face and Kakashi caught it. "Sasuke-chan, your going to have to do better than that", Kakashi teased. Sasuke grits his teeth and leaps off the ground and twist his fist in Kakashi hand so his upside down and gives Kakashi a powerful roundhouse kick to his head. Kakashi blocks it, but thinks 'good kick, but not enough'. Then Kakashi grabs Sasuke's leg and throws him away. While being thrown away; Sasuke begins to do hands signs. 'There's no way he knows ninjutsu', thought Kakashi. "Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu"( Katon: Gokakyu no Jutsu), screams Sasuke. 'I stand corrected once again', Kakashi thinks. After the fire clears up; Sasuke doesn't see Kakashi. 'Damn where did he go?!', thought Sasuke. All Sasuke heard was, "Earth Style: Headhunter Jutsu"( Doton: Shinjū Zanshu no Jutsu), yelled Kakashi.
Sasuke is stuck in the ground, with only his head visible. "Lesson number 3: Ninjustu. Good move, but I'm too good for that", said Kakashi walking away. Sasuke grits his teeth.
Naruto finally manages to get up and smell fire; so he went in that direction. Sakura also gets up and heard Sasuke's voice and ran to his location.
Both Naruto and Sakura sees Sasuke with only his head sticking out and two different reactions take place. Sakura fainted and Naruto, laughs. "HAHA! You let him do that to you", said Naruto. "Oi shut up and help me", demanded Sasuke. "No", came Naruto's response. "Why not!" "Because if onl-", and Naruto was cut short because of Kakashi yelling lazily, "The test is over!"
When Sakura woke up, she sees she is tie to a log post. "WHY AM I TIE UP?!", screamed the pink haired girl.
"Because out of the three, your performance was the worst", stated Kakashi. Sakura hung her head in shame. "Now everyone you guys, well one of you, failed to realize the true meaning of the test. And that was...?", asked Kakashi.
"Teamwork", came from Naruto.
"Exactly; teamwork was the goal of the exam. You guys were suppose to team up and try to get the bells from me. There was no way one of you guys alone, could beat me", said Kakashi. "I'm feeling a bit generous today and I will let you guys get another chance. Here is food for Sasuke and Naruto; Do not feed Sakura or you will face consequences!".
Sasuke began eating his food while Naruto did not. All of sudden Sakura's stomach growl and she blushes. "Sorry", came the response from her. "Here Sakura; I already ate this morning, so take mine food", said Naruto. "The dobe is right; you must be ready for when the three of us face Kakashi", came Sasuke's response. Sakura begins to cry and saying "Thank you", repeatedly.
A dark chill came over. "Oi oi, what did I say?", came from Kakashi. "I could have sworn you weren't supposed to give her food. Also Naruto you disobey my order from yesterday".
Naruto broke out of shock and said, "Oi, you are not my sensei yet; so I didn't need to obey. Secondly, Sakura is my teammate and want her to be fit!".
Sasuke agreed and said "Naruto is right! We weren't leaving her behind".
Sakura is in awestruck of them and cries more. "You guys...passed", said a letter U eye smiling Kakashi.
"Not only did you guys comprehend what I told you; you also did what I wanted you to do. Always help your teammates; no matter what because in the ninja world, those who break the rules are scrum, that's true, but those who abandon their friends are worse than scum".
Those words were also engraved in Naruto, as he began to cry. 'What a baby', said Kurama. 'Shut the fuck up'.
"You guys are now Team 7!".
