Previously on Naruto,,,

Team Seven made their way to the empty hallway, there was only ten minutes until registration was over. "Hey you with the attitude, hold on!" Lee called jumping off the balcony, landing perfectly on the ground. "I challenge you Sasuke Uchiha!" he said.

(He's so fast!) Sasuke gasps trying to see his next move with his Sharingan.

"Naruto Uzumaki! Peri Senju! Sasuke Uchiha! Are you ready?" Kakashi asked

"Yes sir!" the trio declared before walking into the other room.


Author's Notes

I want to leave a disclaimer just in case I didn't do it beforehand. I do NOT own Naruto, only the creator Masashi Kishimoto does. This story will mainly follow the canon storyline with just a twist.


The room was filled with genin from different villages.

Each one of them was an enemy.

"Looks like we got a lot of competition guys." Peri said with a devious smile.

"That's fine by me. I've been wanting to try something new out." Sasuke grinned.

(I have to ask him when he awakened his sharingan. At the Land of Waves he gained his second tomoe so when did get it?) the Senju questioned curiously looking at the Uchiha.

"SASUKE! THERE YOU ARE!~" Ino squealed jumping on his back with a huge blush on her face

"GET OFF HIM INO-PIG HE'S MINE!" Sakura screamed, grabbing his arms.

Just then Shikamaru, Choji, Hinata, Kiba, and Shino walked over to the group. It was the first time since they graduated from the academy that the gang was together again. "Looks like the Ten Rookies are finally back together again. Hope you guys are ready for these exams." Kiba smirks with Akamaru barking in agreement.

"Of course we are! You don't know what training dog head!" the Uzumaki snapped, clenching his fist.

"You guys are such a drag." Shikamaru groaned, rolling his eyes at the arguing boys.

Peri and Hinata giggled watching the funny scene take place as they greeted each other. Hinata has always been close to the Senju princess since she was the only girl besides herself that didn't fawn over Sasuke. Back when they were young Peri was bullied a lot by the girls in her class since she was friends with Sasuke (which led to her winning a lot of fights). The Hyuga girl was the princess of a noble clan and was always pressured by people.

A feeling Peri knew all too well since the whole village expects her to become the Hokage. Even Hiruzen expects her to be his successor on a small level.

Just like her grandfather and granduncle. Afterall, the Senju Clan built this village.

She felt a bump on her shoulder ripping her out of her thoughts. Looking over her shoulder she saw Sasuke looking right back at her begging for help.

She decided to help her friend, she wasn't that heartless.

"Ino. Sakura, you might want to get off Sasuke." Peri said, tugging at the girls of her teammate.

"Shut up! You just want him all to yourself, well it's not happening!" the pink-haired girl screamed in anger.

Peri has always gotten in the way between her and Sasuke even back at the academy. Who cares if she's the first hokage's granddaughter that doesn't mean she can steal HER Sasuke.

("UGH! I'M SO SICK OF HER!") Inner Sakura screamed.

"Yeah mind your own business! He's mine!" Ino yelled annoyed

"I'm pretty sure my friend is my business. Sasuke's not an object, he's his own person." the silver-gray eyed Senju replied.

"You're right, he's more like a sexy lone wolf." Ino cooes

"That's not what I mean and that's totally gross." Peri sweatdropped as she and Sasuke moved away from the fangirls totally grossed out.

"Hey you guys, you might want to keep it down for a bit. I mean no offense, but you guys are the ten rookies. Fresh out of the academy right? This isn't a field trip so just cool it." a gray haired teen said.

That didn't sit well with them. "Well, who asked you?! Who are you?!" Ino and Sakura snapped, annoyed, speaking out everyone's thoughts.

"I'm Kabuto Yakushi. But look around, you made quite the scene." he said.

The group looked around the room nervously, noticing that their little squabble caused a scene. Everybody was looking at them with cold observing looks making some of the rookies nervous.

(Everyone is on a completely higher level!) Peri said nervously

"DON'T UNDERESTIMATE ME! I DON'T QUIT AND I DON'T RUN AWAY AND I'M BEAT EVERY ONE OF YOU!" Naruto yelled

(Idiot.) Peri and Sasuke groan watching Sakura hit him upside the head nervously apologize for his outburst.

Kabuto told them that he was willing to help them all out by showing them his ninja cards that had information on everybody. Although, the silver-haired teen had information on everyone, even Sasuke Uchiha, but for some reason any information on the Senju princess was restricted due to the Third Hokage, there was only a photo. "Do those cards have information on the people, individually?" Sasuke asked

"Yes, do you have someone in mind?" the teen asked

"Gaara of the Desert and Rock Lee of the Hidden Leaf." the Uchiha explained as the teen showed him two cards.

"Rock Lee is a year older than you guys and was top of his class too. His sensei is Might Guy and his teammates are Tenten and Neji Hyuga. His taijutsu skills are very impressive, but his other skills are lacking a bit. Now because Gaara isn't from our village there's not a lot of info on him. But he's the son of the Kazekage and on every mission he's on he has never gotten hurt." Kabuto explained.

"That's not possible, how has he never gotten hurt on a mission!" Peri gasp in disbelief

"What's the deal with this guy?" Naruto asked, shocked.

Peri kinda zoned out Kabuto's lecture on the other villages along with the Hidden Sound Village. The hokage taught her all of that since he expects her to be the next hokage just like the rest of the villagers. (They all want me to be the hokage, but I don't know if I want to be hokage.) she said sadly.

But that's how it's always been all because Hashirama was her granddaughter, Tobirama was her granduncle, and because her clan were the founders of the Leaf. Peri loved them all with all her heart, and she secretly wanted her own life, but didn't know what she wanted to do.

Flashback:

"Hey Itachi, are you going to join the police force?" a seven year old Sasuke asked

"Hmmm…I'm not sure." a teenage Itachi said

"Why not? I am! What about you Peri? I heard people talk about you being Hokage?" he asked, not noticing his friend flinch a little.

"I-I don't know." Peri whispered, playing with her shirt. She wanted to be the leader of her clan, but she DIDN'T know if she wanted to be the hokage.

"Well Peri you're only a child so don't have to worry about it right. You don't have to be hokage if you don't want to. Find your own dream." the older Uchiha comforted the girl by lightly poking her forehead.

End:

"KABUTO ARE YOU OKAY?!" Naruto asked, snapping Peri out of her thoughts. Three Sound ninjas were standing over the injured teen. Nebki was on her shoulder growling he must have seen the strangers attack. Before anything else could happen a large poof of smoke revealing a group of chunin with one tall man wearing a black trenchcoat. "Alright now pipe down! The exams are about to begin, I'm Ibbki Morino, in other words your worst nightmare." he grinned sinsterly.


Fun Fact: One of Sasuke's fangirls tried to break into his house which is why he has a double lock on his door.
