Chapter 2 "Meetings"
"Hey! Move it Naruto!" yells a pink-haired girl. She walks past Naruto to sit next to a dark haired boy. She stares at him with hearts in her eyes.
"Hey! Listen up! Though you are Genins, you are still adults. Therefore we will place you in three man cells with a Jounin, an elite shinobi, teacher. The teams will be as such… team 7: Sakura Haruno, Naruto Otrozan…" said Iruka before he was interrupted. Sakura started to groan. "… And Sasuke Uchiha." said Iruka.
"Yessss!" yelled Sakura. Naruto had his head on the desk complaining.
"Sensei! Why put an excellent ninja like me on that idiot's team!" complained Naruto.
"Naruto! The teams were balanced as much as possible. Sasuke is the number one student in this class! You were ranked at the bottom," said Iruka. The rest of the class laughs at that.
Hours later
"Where's sensei? He should have been here by now!" complained Naruto. He picked up a blackboard eraser and fit it in between the door. A man walks through the door just to have the eraser fall on his head. Naruto started to laugh.
"I can already tell that I hate you all," said the man, "Come on. Follow me."
Outside he motions for the three to sit on a log. "Introduce yourself and include your likes, dislikes, and hopes and dreams. I'll start first. I am Hatake Kakashi. I have many dreams. I have many likes and dislikes that I don't plan on sharing with you," said Kakashi. He smiles under his mask.
Naruto starts to talk before anyone else can, "I'm Naruto Otrozan! I like ramen and I hate the five minutes it takes for it to be ready. My dream is to become the Hokage!"
Sakura smiles, "I'm Sakura Haruno. The thing I like isn't really a thing it's more of a… any way my dream is to…" she blushes and looks at Sasuke, "And I hate Naruto!"
"Ahh man! This sucks!" groans Naruto.
Sasuke grumbles. "Sasuke Uchiha. I have many likes and dislikes. My dream isn't really a dream but more of an ambition to revive the clan and to kill someone," said Sasuke coldly.
'How cool!' thought Sakura.
'Hope it isn't me!' thought Naruto.
"Alright, that's enough. We will start our duties tomorrow. Our first duty involves just the four of us. It will be survival training," said Kakashi with a smirk.
"What? But our entire time at school was spent training!" yelped Sakura.
"This isn't normal training. You must survive against me," stated Kakashi, "This mission is really a test. Those who fail go back to school for more training. This mission has a 66 failure rating."
Doing some quick calculations in her head, "But that means only three teams will pass!" exclaimed Sakura.
'My kind of odds' thought Naruto and Sasuke. Both of them smirk.
"This mission will occur at precisely 0700 hours tomorrow," said Kakashi, "Oh, and don't eat breakfast or you'll throw up."
The next morning, Sasuke's house
Sasuke walked out of the gates of a huge mansion. Nary was a word spoken when Sasuke left.
Sakura's house
Sakura waved goodbye to her parents as she left her house. Her parents waved goodbye as she left.
Naruto's house
Naruto was eating a large amount of pancakes as his mother told him that he better slow down. Naruto replied, "No, I'm going to need my strength against Kakashi-sensei. I already know what we're going to do." Polishing off another pancake he grabbed his shuriken holder and headed out the door.
Training site #47
"Where the hell is he?" yelled Naruto.
"Yo! Sorry I'm late. I had to help an old lady cross the street." said Kakashi as he materialized in the clearing.
"LIAR!" yelled Sakura and Naruto in unison.
"He he, maybe so but now that I'm here we can get started," said Kakashi. He pulled out two bells. "Your goal is to take these away from me. Those who succeed get lunch and the person who fails gets tied to a pole and gets to have me eat his lunch in front of him," grinned Kakashi, "You have till Noon." He pulls out an alarm clock and sets it up on a stump. "Go!" yelled Kakashi as he started the clock.
The three young shinobi disappeared in a flash of smoke. After the smoke clears only Naruto and Kakashi are left in the clearing.
"Let's make this a battle of the greatest shinobis of all time!" yelled Naruto.
"Um… I think you have the wrong kind of fight in mind," said Kakashi. Naruto was already sprinting towards Kakashi. He swung his fist towards Kakashi only to have it deflected to the side. Naruto counters with a thrust kick, Kakashi dodges behind Naruto. Kakashi made a symbol much to the dismay of Naruto's teammates.
"No! What's he thinking? That's too dangerous!" whispered Sakura.
"Hidden Konoha supreme taijutsu technique! 1000 years of Pain!" yelled Kakashi as he shoved a knife in to his rear. Naruto shot off like a rocket howling in pain. He landed in the water.
"Psst! Sakura! I need your help!" whispered Naruto as he appeared next to Sakura with Sasuke following him. "I'm just a clone but the real Naruto wanted me to tell you that the only way to beat Kakashi is if we team up. If you're willing Naruto already has a plan to end this."
Sasuke nodded in agreement. Sakura, who was ever so agreeable with the person she was crushing thought it was a wonderful idea." Fine," stated Sakura.
Naruto deposited several shurikens onto the ground and said; "I trust that you can hit Kakashi with these?" she nods, "Good. Sasuke and I can handle the close combat stuff."
Naruto emerged from the pool of water coughing. "You are good. I only got one thing to say to you now… Go!" yelled Naruto. A pair of hands emerged from the ground grabbing Kakashi's ankles while several clones emerged from the ground around Kakashi. Sakura flings several shurikens at Kakashi only to hit a log instead.
"Shit! Kawarimi!" yelled Naruto. Kakashi then flew out of the woods to his left with Sasuke following him. Naruto stood up and sprung towards Kakashi latching onto his back pinning Kakashi's legs and arm. "Now Sasuke!" yelled Naruto. Sasuke quickly formed the hand symbols for bird and horse and took a deep breath.
'His chakra shouldn't be developed enough for this!' thought Kakashi as a huge fireball headed towards him. The flames washed over him and Naruto. After the flames had subsided all that was left was a slightly burnt and charred Kakashi. Naruto was gone.
"Looks like you pass," said Kakashi with a smirk, "I never thought that you would actually team up on me. That was what this test was about. In my opinion, those who don't work together and let their team down are lower than dirt. By the way, where's Naruto?"
"Behind you," said Naruto. The second Kakashi turned around Naruto punched him in the gut. "That was for stabbing me in the ass."
