Ok this is my first FanFic so comments and suggestions are welcome

Also me and AnbuDude have a sort of linked story line so if you don't fully understand it read his story named "A Shinobi Named Shiro."

--------------------------------------------------------------

Ok punctuation.

"Words" talking.

'Words' thinking.

"words" yelling.

Now on with the story.

--------------------------------------------------------------

Chapter One: Late Start

The village was in a rush. People running to and fro buying supplies and repairing the still ever present damage from Orochimaru's attack. The morning sun beat down on Naruto's and his newly found team mate Shiro's apartment. It was rounding 11 o' clock in the morning and neither of them showed any signs of waking soon. A nose bubble expanding and shrinking from each of there faces. Each was dreaming happily when suddenly, there was a sharp knock on the door. Naruto's bubble popped and he showed few signs of movement. The knock came again and Naruto said to Shiro, "Come on get up and answer the door already Shiro." Shiro lay there unaffected by Naruto's cries. "Come on get up already and answer the door!"Naruto yelled as another knock sounded at the door, "fine I'll get it."

Naruto sleepily walked over to the door and yawned as he opened the door. He was suddenly wide awake as he saw Sakura standing at the door. "Oh, hey Sakura. What are you doing here this early?" Naruto asked.

"First of all it's all most noon and secondly why aren't you and Shiro ready to go yet?" Sakura replied.

"Why should we be ready?" Naruto questioned, "What's going on?"

"Just because we got back from our latest mission 3 days ago doesn't mean that we get to skip training." Sakura shouted.

"Oh yeah I completely forgot. Go on without us we'll be there in a few minutes," Naruto ordered. He slammed the door as Sakura leaped away with a cloud of smoke. Naruto changed into his normal orange jump suit and shook Shiro awake. Shiro leaned up and took earplugs out of his ears. 'So that's why he wouldn't wake up' Naruto thought.

"What is it? I was having the best dream ever." Shiro complained.

"Come on we have to meet Kakashi-Sensei for training!" Naruto reminded him.

"Crap! Your right. Lets go!" Shiro cried. He raced to his dresser and pulled out his normal green t-shirt, navy blue shirt, and navy blue pants. He got dressed and both him and Naruto raced out of the apartment towards the training grounds both eager to see what they would do today.
