Like always, thanx to all my reviewers. Here's Takai, Tora, and Ronin's chapter. I didn't have any plan for this so it came right off the top of my head.
The next chapter is Yustuko, Kichi, and Kakashi. but it probley won't be up until monday because I want to make it extra long. Sorry for any spelling errors and what not I haven't had much time to check it.

After being dropped off at the Academy by their father, Takai, Tora, and Ronin, all went to their separate classes.In Tora's class, everyone was hanging out, throwing things, and pretty much running wild. "Bunch of animals." Tora muttered as she took her seat by the far wall.
They had driven off three teachers and were getting a fourth today. Tora had requested a transfer to a different class but that had gone unanswered. The door opened and a man entered. He had long spikey white hair that was pulled back into a ponytail and red lines running down from his eyes. Nobody but Tora noticed him. Must be our new Sensei. She thought.
The man walked up to his desk and sat down, he looked around the room noting that nobody, with exception of a young silver haired girl, was shutting up. Performing a few hand seals he created a chakra wave that, minus himself and the quite girl, knocked everyone on their butts. "Now that it's quite in here we can begin class." He said calmly.
A few students were about to protest but wisely shut their mouths after receiving an icy glare from their new sensei. "First off you will refer to me as Jiraiya-Sensei, and just so we're clear, I'm only doing this as a favor to a former student of mine. Can any of you guess who that is?" He looked around the room, only the quite girl had her hand up, everyone else looked mostly terrified. "You, silver haired girl."
"First off you will refer to me as Tora, Hatake Tora." That earned a few snickers from the class, which were silenced by another glare. "And I can only assume you're refering to the 4th Hokage, as he would be the only one that would get a reaction from us."
"Ah just my luck I run into another smart-assed Hatake. I swear they're coming out of the wood work." He said. "You're right, Arashi did ask me to babysit you brats. Hopfully he'll find someone else by tomarrow and I can get back to real shinobi work."
Jiraiya pushed a few papers around on the desk before picking one up. "Alright, says here that we're supposed to review the five principal shinobi territories and other lands, so let's start with that." Ignoring the groans he smirked and started his lecture. "The five main hidden villages are, Konohagakure No Sato, The Village Hidden in the Leaves, and I should hope you all at least know that one. Kirigakure No Sato, The village Hidden in the Mist, Kumogakure No Sato, The Village Hidden in the Clouds, Sunagakure No Sato, The Village Hidden in the Sand, and Iwagakure No Sato, The Village Hidden in the stones.
"For most of the countries on this continent, the ninja villages serve as a military force. They protect their own people and handle the ongoing relations with neighboring countries. Yet, the villages do not answer to the rulers of their native countries. Instead, they are on equal footing with the government. In the case of very small island nations where an invasion would be difficult to mount, a ninja village is regarded as unnecessary. Among the various ninja villages, in particular, these located in the lands of Konoha, Kiri, Kumo, Suna, and Iwa are large and their strength immense. Those are called the five great lands of shinobi. They are also the only places wher the shinobi leader calls himself a Kage, or Shadow.
"Those legendary leaders, Hokage, Fire Shadow, Mizukage, Water Shadow, Raikage, Lightining Shadow, Kazekage, Wind Shadow, and Tsuchikage, Earth Shadow, are known to ninja everywhere as The Five Shadows, the ultimate commanders of all of the tens of thousands of shinobi throughout the world." He finished. "Any questions?" Nobody raised their hand. "Good, now you can all read about it, more indpth, in your text books, and read quitely, anybody caught talking will have to write a thousand sentances. You'll read for an hour then we'll go outside to practise Taijustu." Jiraiya pulled out a stack of papers and started writing.
This guy's weird. Was Tora's only thought as she opened her textbook to the right section.
In Takai's class things started out a little more calm. Their sensei sat at the front of the class looking over papers and letting the students talk quitely to themselves for a few moments. "Alright class." She said when she looked up. "Today we'll be holding your surprise Genin Exams." That got her mixed reactions. Some students started to panic, some were excited, some were just nervious, and Takai sat in his seat perfectly nuetral. "I certainly hope you've all payed attention in class and studied because if you don't pass this test you'll have to wait until next year." She picked up a clipboard and walked to the door. "When I come and call your name you'll go across the hall where your exam will begin, first up, Akiyama Dai." A boy from the back nerviously got up and walked out the door followed by their sense.
The second the door closed everyone started talking about their upcoming doom. It didn't take long for their sensei to come back and call the next name, one by one each student left and didn't come back, finally they reached the 'H's at about lunch time, the door opened. "Hatake Takai, your turn." Takai got up calmly, all eyes were on him as he walked out the door, and across the hall.
The room he was in was fairly large, it was empty save for a table at the end where his sensei and a man sat. The man spoke up. "First off you'll show us the basics, produce two clones."
Takai formed the hand signs and two clones popped up on either side of him. His sensei came up and inspected them.
"Very good." She said. "Now you can disspell them." He did so. "And transform into each Hokage in order, please."
He'd only seen brief pictures of the 1st and 2nd, there was the monument, but you couldn't go by a rock for details, so, preforming the signs, he transformed into the 1st. He held it for a moment for his Sensei to inspect. He transformed into the 2nd, held it, then transformed into the 3rd, he wasn't that difficult, Takai had met him on more than one ocassion. Finally he transformed into the 4th. That one he knew he nailed perfectly, not only had he visited the Academy not more than a week ago, but also before he was the Hokage, Leiko had a mission with him and afterwards she'd invited him for dinner.
"Excelent Takai, but I think you need to study what the 1st and 2nd look like a bit better, but not bad." His sensei sat back down at the table.
"Next, you'll need to swap places with something in this room." The man said.
Takai looked around the room, the only thing in it was the table, the papers and the examiners. He took a deep breath and formed the proper seals. In a poof of smoke he was seated next to his sensei and the man was standing where he was a moment ago. "Great job! Now you just have to tell us your reasons for wanting to be a shinobi." He got up and stood infront of the table again.
"My reason for wanting to be a shinobi is so I can protect my family and repay them for all the times they've protected me and all that they've done for me." Takai was blushing a little, he'd just embarrased himself.
His sensei smiled, the Man grunted and tossed him a Leaf forehead protector. "Go upstairs to room 421 and wait with all the others who've passed."
As Takai left the room a went upstairs he could hear the next person being called.
In Ronin's class everyone was in their seats and their sensei had just finished taking roll. "Okay children, today we're going to review Chakra, and then take a test. Open you textbooks to page 176 and we'll begin." He waited for everyone to open their books and then started his lecture. "Chakra is, to put it simply, the energies that a shinobi requires in order to preform ninjutsu." He began. "Basically, these energies are, one, those of the body, drawn from each and every one of the approximately thirteen trillion cells that are believed to make up the human body. Two, those of the mental and spiritual energy acquired over the course of much training and experience.
"Together those two forms of energy are what make up chakra. In effect, all the arts and techniques of the shinobi are born of a combonation those two energies, brought fourth from the body and spirit in what is called 'Manipulating chakra' and focused in the mystic process known as 'Weaving the signs.'
"Manipulation of chakra refers to summoning physical and mental energies and combining them within your own body. Depending on which technique you wish to employ, the amount of energy you'd need to absorb would vary, as would the makeup of elements you'd need to combine, fire, water, earth, wind, and lightining.
"No matter how great the amount of chakra you summon and manipulate, if you can't maintain your balance, whatever the technique, not only will the effectivness of you maneuver be cut in half, but you could also blunder so badly the justu may not even be released at all. And because you end up squandering your energies, you not only lack the stamina for a protracted fight, but you also develop significant vulnerabilities." Their sensei stopped talking and picked up a stack of papers. "Now put everything one your desks away and get out a number two pencil. There will be absolutly no talking during this test if I hear you talking your test will be ripped up and you will automatically fail. Any questions?" he started passing out the test papers.
Back in Tora's class their hour of silent reading was up and Jiraiya-sensei put his large stack of papers away. "Alright everyone, line up, and we'll go outside." All the students did as they were told and they were on one of the Taijustu training field in a matter of moments.
"I'm told you know all your stances and everything so have at it." Jiraiya sat down next to a tree. "If you have any trouble I suppose you can ask me." He added as an afterthought. He observed the class practice noting that only a handful of them had any real talent in Taijustu. The Hatake girl being one of them, actually the Hatake girl was really good, she did everthing perfect. Wouldn't be surprised to see great thing out of her. He thought.
As he was looking towards the back of the field he saw a young shinobi in one of the trees, he was about to bust the boy when he noticed that he was reading one of his own books. Might as well let him enjoy. Jiraiya relaxed back against the tree again.
After a few hours of practice they went back in their classroom to eat their lunch.
In Ronin's class he was the first to finish the test, thus he had to sit quitely until everyone else finished. He sat with his head on the desk for what seemed like days to him, which really was only hours. In that time he thought of all the cake he was going to eat tomarrow afternoon at Kakashi and Kichi's birthday party, and all the games he would play, and how he was going to con the twins out of any candy they got.
"Pencils down." Their sensei said, he got up from his desk and collected all the test sheets. "You may eat your lunch now."
Ronin pulled out his lunch, a sandwich, juice, chips, and a homemade cookie. His friends Taro and Shima came and sat by him. "Hey Ronin my dad's taking me and Taro the lake tomarrow after school you wanna come?" Shima asked.
"I can't it's Kakashi and Kichi's birthday, my parents would never let me go anywhere." Ronin sighed. Shima's dad knew all sorts cool water justus and he was going to miss it.
"That's too bad, we'll be sure to have some fun for you." Taro smirked.
"Be nice Taro or I might just forget I invited you." Shima said. "Sorry Ronin, mabey you can go next time."
"Yeah next time." Ronin sighed again and took a bite out of his sandwich. "Oh I just remembered, you guys totally missed it." Ronin said grinning. "The other day when you guys had to go home early my sister Leiko showed up with her whole squad and had dinner with us. I got to sit between two gigantic Anbu!"
"That's not fair, you always get to see Anbu. All my sister does is drool." Taro complained.
"Your sister's a baby, Ronin's sister is Anbu, of course he gets to see them." Shima opened up his can of soda and took a drink. "My dad's Anbu. It's really no big deal."
"Easy for you to say, you've actually seen them in uniform, I haven't!" Taro whined.
"There's nothing relly special about them, they just move really fast and silent, can kick anbody's ass, and wear those really cool animal masks." Ronin smirked at Taro as he started to pout.
Ronin finished his lunch and threw away all the trash. Shima and Taro finished up not long after.
When lunch was over and everyone went back to their seats, they had silent study for the rest of the day.
The rest of Tora's day went by pretty fast, Jiraiya-sensei let them play games as long as they were quite while he worked on his book. Tora studied more on the various minor ninja villages while she half-heartedly played a game of cards with two other girls.
In the room Takai was sitting in with the rest the newly graduted Genin it was boring there was absolutly nothing to do in there. They'd had lunch and a few othe new Genin came in but other than that, nothing. In all there was only twelve of them including himself.
Takai had decided that he wouldn't tell his family that he had passed until dinner tonight. If any of them did know about the surprise exam hopefully they would take his silence as a sign that he didn't pass and not question him about it.
About ten minutes before the bell rang their sensei came in. "Congratulations to you all for passing, you are now Genin. Come back tomarrow and you will be sorted into teams, and you'll meet your Jounin instructor. Have a good day." With that she left in a poof of smoke.
With the last few minutes left he put his forehead protector in his pocket and walked over to Ronin's classroom. He arrived just as his little brother was coming out. "Hey Takai." Ronin greeted.
"Hi Ronin. Let's go get Tora, dad's probley already waiting for us." Takai ruffled Ronin's hair as they walked a few doors down to where Tora was wiating for them. The three of the exited the Academy and sure enough their father was waiting for them, reading a book.
A/N
Sadly while typing this chapter I
totally screwed up the ages. If Kakashi is 26 in the manga and Jiraiya
50, that makes Jiraiya 24 years older than Kakashi, and in my story
Kakashi's 3 and that would make Jiraiya 27, but I have the 4th as only
20 and assuming he was a Genin at age 5 like Kakashi that would make
Jiraiya 12 when he trained him, Jiraiya's good but not that good, so
for the sake of my story I'm making Jiraiya 9 years older than he is so
that would make him 36.
Sorry I didn't think the ages through far enough!!!
REVEIW NO JUSTU! Wah!
