Next day...
The sun's rays awoke Naruto, after yesterday's events he could not pour the whole night. - "What time, I'm gonna be late."
Naruto quickly ran to the bathroom to throw on his clothes, and then as he fired with a slingshot, he ran through the village every now and then bumping into some strogs.
"Hey little shit come back here!"
"Sorry, I'm in a hurry later!" - While he was running like that, suddenly a girl came out from behind the corner, suddenly Naruto bumped into her and they both fell over - "Be careful how you walk!"
"Forgive me, I was in such a hurry and didn't notice you." - When he looked at her, he saw black hair, eyes of the same color, wearing a purple blouse and light shorts.
"You are Naruto, are you right?"
"Yes, how do you know me?"
"We went to the academy for four years." - Naruto stared at the girl for a moment, trying to remember her, and then remembered that she was one of the few people in the class who were nice to him.
"And I remember, you are Kuriko."
"Yes, I can see that you finally finished the academy, congratulations."
"Hehe, thank you and now forgive me I have to go because I'm late anyway"
"See you later." - Naruto moved towards the academy, Iruka was about to close the door, but the blonde broke through at the last moment.
"You really are late on such an important day?"
"Forgive Iruka-sensei"
When everyone was in the class, the squad placement began, there were twenty-five students in the class which meant one of them would not be assigned to the squad, it happened to be Naruto - "How do I not get the team?"
"I'm sorry, I have nowhere to put you."
"After all this, after I finally managed to finish the academy, it turns out that I can't get the team."
" I'll talk to the Hokage, maybe a solution can be found." - Naruto didn't say anything anymore, but left and went to Ichiraku ramen, on the way he met Chouji and Shikamaru. -" Hello Naruto." a member of the Akimichi clan greeted, cutting the chips
"Chouji, Shikamaru"
"You did become a genin though, troublesome"
"Yes, although I was not assigned to any team, but Iruka-sensei said he would talk to the Hokage about it. However, Shikamaru, I can see you've become a chuunin."
"Yes last year, I was even sent on a mission right after I was promoted.
"Really what is this mission?" - Shikamaru told about the escape of one of the last living members of the Uchiha clan, Sasuke, and about his mission to bring him back, which was unsuccessful.
"I understand, lately I was wondering why I hadn't seen this asshole in the village in a long time, he was the best in class, I never would have thought he would do something like that."
"Troublesome situation, but what to do." - Naruto talked with his friends for a while, then went to Ichiraku
