Academy and Exam

Ranma woke up with a scream as something moved in the apartment. He looked around and saw a cat hiding in the room. He quickly grabbed the cat and threw it outside and heard a woman scream as the cat apparently was flung against her. Ranma laughed silently and then got some breakfast from the fridge. It seems that this world had a blend of medieval and modern technology available.

Ranma grabbed a packet of instant ramen from the fridge and heated it with some Ki. The packet was hot within seconds and Ranma tore open the packet and started eating it. When he had finished it he looked out of the window and noticed that he probably still had a few hours to train a little. He forced himself to go through the Kata's that had been taught to him buy his adoptive father. When it was time to go he just jumped out of the window and bounded over the rooftops towards the Academy. Ranma's eyes narrowed as he saw that several people were trailing him and he quickly used the Umisenken to hide himself from them leaving behind a few confused people. When Ranma had landed in front of the building he just entered it and was pointed to a room by a woman who looked at hi with something akin to kindness in her eyes but also a deep sadness. Ranma smiled at her and thanked her. Then he got to the classroom.

When he knocked on the door it opened and a man looked at him:

"What can I do for you?"

Ranma put on one of his best innocent faces and said:

"Are you Iruka-sensei?"

Iriuka nodded and Ranma continued:

"Alright then! I have been instructed to come to your class and be taught all stuff the shinobi needs to know. My name is Naruto Uzumaki and I'll be hokage someday!"

Iruka's face betrayed none of his feelings as he took in his newest student. He had been there when the Kyuubi had been rampaging. He had seen the damage done by the Demon. And knew that the boy in front of him had been the keeper of the demon. He motioned Ranma inside and said:

"Stand in front of the class."

Ranma did so and Iruka spoke up:

"Class it seems that we have a new student. I want to introduce you to Naruto Uzumaki. Naruto please tell us something about yourself."

Ranm stepped forwards and spoke in a loud tone:

"Well my name is Naruto Uzumaki and I am twelve years of age. I love ramen and my ultimate goal is to become hokage. I dislike people who brag about their skills."

Ranma smiled as he had the attention of the class. He was seated next to a girl with a large forehead and a boy with red eyes. He looked at Iruka as he taught and noticed the chakra flowing around him. When Iruka did a small demonstration of the bushin no jutsu Ranma immediately copied it in his memory and without warning he did the same and became the hokage.

Iruka looked at his student who had suddenly became the hokage in appearance and clapped and said:

"Very good Naruto. Turning into a person is very hard to do at first try. Now try to do something more difficult."

Ranma thought for a few seconds and asked Kyuubi if his female form was still accessible. The Kitsune just grinned and said:

"Sure kid. Wanna show them some cleavage to the old guy? It would be funny to see his reaction."

Ranma gave a mental affirmation and then imagined himself in his female form. Soon there sat an incredibly busty seventeen year old girl. Iruka's eyes threatened to roll out of his head and he turned red as she winked at him. Ranma decided to go and surprise the teacher. He jumped off his seat and to the front of the class and did something that had the older man turn red as a tomato:

"Sensei I am such a bad girl. Spank me Iruka sensei. Spank me hard."

Then he pressed his cleavage into the man's face and the man fainted. Ranma grinned evilly and transformed back into his normal form. He looked at the stunned class and said:

"What? It IS a way to knock out a person without too much problems. Just think of all the advantages against male opponents."

Ranma grinned as the faces of the students became one with their desks as they face faulted. Iruka regained consciousness the moment Ranma sat in his chair again. Narutowas called to the front of the class again and would have to demonstrate the bunshin no jutsu again. Ranma sighed and became a perfect copy of the kid that sat in the chair next to him.

Dark eyes stared at the class and Ranma said:

"This okay Iruka-sensei? I tried to copy him but I don't know if I succeeded."

Iruka just said:

"Well done Naruto. A perfect copy of Sasuke. Return to your seat please. Class as you well know there is an exam to test your skill in two days. So I will advise you to train hard and don't slack off. That's all for today class dismissed. Naruto please stay behind."

Ranma did so and when the class had cleared out he looked at Iruka. The Chuunin spoke:

"Well Naruto it is up to you if you want to do the exam. With the amount of skill you used on the bunshin no jutsu I would say that you would have scored perfect marks on the exam but since I haven't seen any grades from you since you are new I have composed a small test for you to do. If you score well enough then I suppose you can partake in the exam."

After that speech a paper was handed to Ranma and he started to sweat at the questions. The first question was about the prime directives of being a Ninja. Suddenly Kyuubi spoke up:

"Well Kit do the test. Don't tell me you have gone dumb all of a sudden. You know a ninja called Sasuke don't you? Wasn't he the servant of the fool we killed yesterday? Then write something down. Or do you want me to help you out? I have gained some knowledge from having watched history unfold and of course I have played a part in the history of the village. And I know a fair deal about ninjutsu. Well then lets get started on the questions. I believe one of the people I killed had something in his memory about that. I'll see what I can dredge up from those memories."

Ranma gave a mental scream which reverberated through his mind:

"HOW THE HELL IS IT POSSIBLE FOR YOU TO KNOW THIS SHIT! DID YOU JUST SAY YOU LOOK INTO ONE'S MEMORIES?"

Kyuubi gave a foxy grin and said to the man trapped within a child's body:

"Kit if there is one thing you can and will learn is that if a Demon eats someone their memories are transferred to the Demon for his own personal use. The same is it when a Demon devours another Demon. Their power is added to the Demon that killed the other Demon. So essentially we have good skills available to us. The only thing we have to do is eat someone and we'll be gaining their skills."

Ranma grimaced at the prospect of having to eat someone and then decided that he would answer the questions and see what he remembered from someone's memories. Suddenly the questions weren't hard at all. He remembered things from several people and within ten minutes he had filled out the entire sheet of questions without one being wrong. Ranma walked up to Iruka who sat at his desk and said:

"Iruka-sensei I am finished with the test."

Iruka looked at the boy with the whisker marks on his cheeks and said:

"Let's see how well you have done Naruto."

Iruka looked over the answers to the test from an answer sheet and to his amazement he couldn't find a wrong answer. He looked at Naruto and said:

"Well done Naruto. Let's go out and eat some ramen shall we? It's on me because you have answered every question correctly."

Ranma smirked as he let the infamous food craving that he possessed come forward and said:

"Are you sure Iruka-Sensei? I don't want to burden you with buying me food."

Iruka just laughed and said:

"It's no problem kid. I am actually glad that you answered it all correctly. So let's go to my favourite Ramen shop shall we?"

Ranma nodded and soon they were eating pork ramen. Ranma devoured his seventh cup and looked at Iruka who had a sweatdrop on his head. Ranma just grinned and shouted to the waitress:

"Another one!"

Iruka watched as the boy devoured seven cups of Ramen. What the hell was this kid made of? It was simply inhuman to eat so much without getting stomach cramps. Iruka noticed several people looking at the eating boy with astonishment in their eyes including a Jounin dressed like she had just come from battle and very well could have must returned from a mission. The Jounin walked over to Ranma and said:

"Kid it is unhealthy to eat so much. If you eat too much you'll get stomach cramps."

Ranma looked at the woman and said:

"Don't sweat it lady. I'll be fine. As long as I can remember I have been eating this much. Something about having an advanced healing rate I guess. Every time I got hurt I just regenerated quicker then most people. Not to mention that there were a lot of people who wanted to kill me."

Yuuhi Kurenai stared at the boy who had so casually answered her. She looked at the Chuunin that sat next to the kid and said to Iruka:

"Who the hell does the kid think he is to talk that way to me? And why are you sitting next to him?"

Iruka looked around and said in a whisper:

"He is Uzumaki Naruto. He has reappeared after disappearing twelve years ago. He bears the seal and I offered to treat him to Ramen. That was before I knew of his ravenous appetite."

Ranma smiled as he heard the conversation and added to it:

"Well if you knew that then you wouldn't have offered to pay for it. And it's your loss. I scored perfect on that test. And lady why don't you come sit next to me? I could use a little female company."

Kurenai stared at the kid who had so carelessly addressed her and said:

"Listen kid I don't have time to be spent loitering around with a academy student. I am a Jounin and have far more important stuff to do."

Ranma looked at her and said:

"Like finding a boyfriend or something?"

Yuuhi Kurenai was once again baffled by the attitude the kid had. She looked at him and said:

"That is none of your business. I have a boyfriend already so why would I try to find one."

Ranma smirked at her and said:

"No you don't. You haven't touched a man with any feeling in your life. You still are a virgin and I can simply smell that you have only touched women so that means that you either like women or haven't got the time to be searching for a boyfriend?"

She looked at the kid and a vein started to throb on her forehead:

"DON'T YOU DARE LECTURE ME ABOUT MY LFIE YOU BRAT! YOU HAVE NEVER SEEN WHAT I HAVE SEEN. I WAS AT THE BATTLE WITH THE KYUUBI NO KITSUNE. I HAVE KILLED MORE POWERFUL PEOPLE THEN YOU HAVE EVER SEEN. TRY TO TOP THAT, KID!."

Ranma smirked at her and said:

"Follow me."

Then he got up and walked outside. She followed him and Ranma looked at her and said in a cold and deadly voice:

"Have you ever seen one of your loved ones die Miss? Have you ever felt hopelessness as you watched you life being controlled by your kin? Have you ever felt the bloodlust course through you as you ripped apart an immortal phoenix with your bare hand? Tell me and then I will admit that you have had it worse then me."

Kurenai didn't have anything to say about that. She had never seen a phoenix nor ripped one apart with her bare hands. The only thing she knew was that this kid wasn't normal. Well she knew the kid wasn't normal because he carried the Kyuubi within him. But how could he have ripped apart a mythological creature like a Phoenix when he was so young. She decided to ask him and went inside after him. She sat down next to him and said:

"Well then tell me about the Phoenix kiddo and I'll see if I believe you."

Ranma looked at her and said:

"Well you know I am stronger then most people of my age don't you? I was raised by a man with no morals who hid from me the truth that I was adopted. I initially was residing in a city when a girl I used to love was kidnapped by a Phoenix. I followed the creature and ripped it apart with strange charka that came from me. The only thing I remember is a strange creature with nine tails staring at me and saying something about being held prisoner within me. I really don't know what the thing meant but I was nearly killed by the girl because I was a little slow in my rescue attempt. Damn Bitch."

Kurenai saw the kid mumble something about girls not able to stand up against his might and said:

"Alright then. If girls are weak according to you then let me prove you otherwise. I challenge you to a fight. Now."

Ranma grinned at her and Iruka tried to persuade her not to fight with his student but Kurenai paid him no heed and grabbed Ranma by the neck and dragged him to an area that was bare and threw him on the street.

Ranma felt the bloodlust return and he saw red literally. His eyes became two red slits ofmalicious intentand he ducked an attack by Kurenai. The fight had officially begun as he had landed on the ground. He closed in on her rapidly and kicked her in the ribs feeling them break under his foot.

Ranma glared at her and said in a demonical voice that made the woman shiver:

"Don't mess with me or do you want to die now Yuuhi Kurenai? I remember you from twelve years ago. You were trying to hurt me with some kunai as I recall.Also used some Genjutsu on me to confuse me so Yondaime could arrive.Pity I didn't eat you. Maybe I will do so now."

The eyes became red and Ranma looked at her as he began to turn into his twenty-seven year old form and he scratched his head with his clawed hands and said:

"Hurts doesn't it Yuuhi? Mind if I call you Yuuhi?"

Yuuhi Kurenai was a woman who didn't care much for the male part of the species but as she set eyes on the Demon in front of her hearts appeared in her eyes and she started drooling a little. Ranma sighed and decided to play around with her a little. He walked up to her and snapped his fingers. Then in a lightning fast motion he reached into her clothes and when he retracted his hands within a millisecond he was holding a lacy red bra in his hands which he immediately stowed away somewhere on his body.

Kurenai snapped from her daze as she saw one of the most hunky men standing in front of her. Now it made much more sense. The story abut ripping apart the phoenix was something this man had done. She didn't know why he disguised as a child but she knew that she would have t get the address of where he lived. Then she felt the pain of her broken ribs and sank to her knees. Ranma shifted back into his normal form and was happy that she couldn't see the tails. They were hidden from normal eyes and could only be seen by a person who possessed some visual skills above the normal humans.

Ranma lifted her body carefully and carried her into the ramen shop where he was greeted by stares. Kurena had a weird look on her face which was accentuated by a small stream of blood that dripped from her mouth onto Ranma's clothing. Luckily Ranma had chosen to wear clothing that stretched to great lengths so his change wouldn't be ripping through his clothes.

Ranma set Kurenai next to him and looked at Iruka and said:

"She was easy to beat. Just one hit and she was out for the count."

Then Kurenai tried to say something but fell over directly onto Ranma's lap. Iruka just stared at the kid who had single-handed beat one of the Jounin of the village. Iruka gulped as he imagined what the exam could bring including a test of strength. That would break some bones if he ever got to test Naruto. Ranma smirked at him and said:

"I have finished eating dinner Iruka sensei. I am anxious for the test. Do you know where Yuuhi lives? As I apparently broke some ribs I think I would have to go bring her home. That would be a proper thing to do."

Iruka nodded and said:

"I know where she lives. But are you sure you can carry her? Isn't she a tad too heavy for a kid like you to carry?"

Ranma smirked in his famous way and said:

"Nope. I can carry her. And if she is too heavy for me I'll go transform into another person who could carry the burden better."

They made their way to Kurenai her house and Ranma used some of his lock picking skills and the door opened for them. Ranma walked through the house with Kurenai in his arms until he found a bed in a room decorated with pictures of various weaponry. Apparently Kurenai liked weapons because some littered the room. As he got her into bed she clung to him and Ranma saw no choice but to call out to Iruka who came within five second. He took one look at the situation and saw that Kurenai was already asleep. The Chuunin laughed as she rolled over and released Ranma while muttering something about getting the number of the kart hat had run her over. Iruka and Ranma sneaked out of the house and Ranma left a small note on the door saying that he had carried her home and where he lived. He signed it with Naruto Uzumaki.

The next day in school was spent with trying to review all the stuff that had been taught over the year and Ranma completed it all flawlessly. Ranma had a conversation with the pink haired girl and soon it became apparent that she liked Sasuke who sat to his other side. The boy called Sasuke by the pink haired girl proved to be an interesting person. He said that he was an avenger and Rama believed it. The eyes looked so much like his eyes in Kyuubi form but lacked the red shine.

Ranma looked at Uchiha Sasuke with wary eyes as the kid got into a battle stance. Ranma associated it with a stance that would the Sharingan be used to its full potential and did something about it. Ythe practices battle that they had agreed on would test their skills for later use. Ranma knew that he would have to hold back 99 of his true strengths and even then he would have to be careful not to break Sasuke's body. Ranma looked at his opponent as he sent a few Kunai at him. Ranma dodged and sent a few shuriken at Sasuke who countered it with his flaming breath attack. Ranma watched as a giant fireball was headed towards him and he jumped up and shouted:

"Kyuubi no Kitsune Forbidden Arts: Akuma Neko-Ken!"

Ranma grew catlike claws on his hands and due to the feral abilities he gained he looked like some evil incarnation of a feline just waiting to rip you apart. Ranma jumped at Sasuke with incredible speed and began to slice at the kid while keeping himself in check. He didn't want to hurt such a friend who wanted to spar with him. Ranma's blue eyes looked as Sasuke fell to the floor bleeding from several wounds. Ranma had tried to keep the damage in areas that could be healed easily. He scooped Sasuke in his arms and raced towards the hospital careful not to aggravate Sasuke's condition. When he got there Sasuke was rushed off to the ER and Ranma followed. He was met by evil glares from the doctors and one hissed:

"You did this, Kyuubi. You hurt the child prodigy. If I hadn't sworn an oath not to hurt you I would kill you with my bare hands."

Ranma just stared at the body of Sasuke and said:

"Let me do something then."

Ranma started to glow with a dark red glow and it went into Sasuke whose wounds started to heal at an advanced pace. Sasuke opened his eyes and looked around to see where he was. Soon the kid was up again and followed Naruto.

The exams went well. Ranma graduated one place above Sasuke making him the Number 1 rookie Gennin. He performed the Bunshin well. After the exam he was approached by a Chuunin called Mizuki who asked him to steal a scroll from the Hokage. Ranma did so and met the man in a forest near konoha. Ranma didn't really keep himself to the bargain because he had already learned all the contents of the scroll with its supposed hidden techniques. He had learned the Kage Bunshin no jutsu within three tries and another skill to eliminate someone with just a small hair.

Ranam looked as the pale Chuunin came into view. He heard something rustle in the bushes and saw a giant Shuriken with four blades come at him. Ranma ducked and Mizuki grabbed the scroll with hidden techniques. Ranma just gave the man a passive glare and said:

"Why did you throw the Shuriken Mizuki-Sensei?"

Mizuki looked at Ranma and said:

"Well young fool I want to unseal the demon within s it can wreak havoc on Konoha again. You Naruto are the one and only carrier of the…"

Then a pair of Kunai flew through the air and Mizuki dodged. Iruka came to the scene and looked at Mizuki with an angry look and said:

"All of us swore an oath to not tell anyone of the younger generation of IT. Especially him."

Mizuki just laughed at the younger manand said:

"Iruka you are a fool. When I unseal the Kyuubi no Kitsune I shall control it and destroy Konoha."

Ranma looked at Mizuki and gave him the finger. Iruka chuckled at the obscene gesture and Mizuki fumed then screamed out loud:

"YOU ARE NOTHING MORE THEN THE CONTANER FOR THE KYUUBI NO KITSUNE NARUTO! THAT'S AL YOU WILL EVER BE TO THE VILLAGE."

Iruka grew pale and Ranma said:

"I know that. Why would I be able to beat Yuuhi-san if I hadn't found some way to boost my power. Other then that I am bloody gorgeous."

Mizuki looked at the boy with the bright yellow hair and sad:

"Then let it be unsealed you brat. The Demon Fox shall return to destroy the entirety of konoha and I shall be rewarded by HIM."

Then Mizuki hit Iruka on the head with a Shuriken that he had kept in his outfit. It looked to be the same in mass and weight as the one that had soared past Naruto's head a few minutes ago. The only thing Iruka saw was a smooth black surface descending upon his head and darkness overtook him. He landed in an unconscious heap on the floor. Then Mizuki focused his attention on Ranma and said:

"Now to unseal the Demon within I need to read the scroll."

Ranma smirked as he had gotten the scroll the moment Mizuki grabbed the Shuriken. Mizuki looked at the scroll and screamed:

"FOR THAT YOU WILL DIE YOU BRAT!"

Ranma smirked evilly at the man and shifted into his true form. Luckily all the mechanisms Genma had set in place so that he would keep his younger form had been dissolved and now he looked like any other twenty seven year old male. The only thing different were the blacktails and the piercing red eyes.

Ranma advanced upon the man with his tails swinging in the wind. The man was now cowering at the frightening visage of the Demon Fox coming at him. Ranma grinned at the man and then transformed int his more Demonic look and there grew his claws and fur all over his body. In all essence there stood the Kyuubi No Kitsune read to take the iunfortunate being that stood in its way.

Mizuki's cries of anguish were heard in the village and none dared to tread any closer to the frest in fear of having the same fate.

When Iruka regained consciousness he looked at his student who had a few drops f blood hanging in his hair. Iruka said to his student:

"Where is the bastard? Did he leave with the scroll Naruto?"

Ranma looked at the man and retrieved the scroll from within his outfit. Iruka gave a sigh of relief and they walked back to the village. Ranma had taken the liberty of modifyingIruka's memories of what had happened and now Iruka knewnothing of the fact that Ranam could control the Kyuubi no kitsune's power.Soon they were eating Ramen with the Hokage and Ranma was happily munching on some Ramen. The Third asked him what happened to Mizuki after Iruka was knocked unconscious. Ranma just grinned and told them that he had been dealt with. As Iruka offered to take him home Ranma coughed a little and a forehead protector was launched from his throat to land on the street in a garbage can with a clang.

Ranma had nice dreams of the things he had done to Mizuki. The meat tasted sosweet to him.the blood was a little harder to try and get it off but that had all worked out in the end. it was quite refreshing todrink it. it tasted strange first but soon he had been dfdrinking it out of Mizuki before eating the man alive. the clothes had been stuck between teh teeth a little but thos ehad been removed with Ranma's hands. he was lucky that he could stretch his mouth to fit almost impossible to eat food.

The Kyuubi taught him more history and Ranma knew that the Kyuubi somehow had foreseen that growing up here in this village would be not good for Ranma's education as the villagers hated him with a passion. So he had somehow managed to transport Ranma to he other Dimension and due to the foresight he had been able to predict the reactions to protect Ranma.

It also became to Ranma's attention that the female Jounin he had fought with a few days ago had been intoxicated by the Pheromones that Ranma emitted. Ranma chased Kyuubi for a while because the Pheromones automatically attracted women to him depending on what form he was in. if in his smaller form they would just like him.

Ranma had learned some time ago that his age had been slowed by Genma and selective memory wipes had been done on Nodoka. Ranma burned with a wild anger at the old man who dared to make him young again just so he could feed his fat belly. He remembered being told to drink something when he was twelve. Then a blank and when he looked again it was three years later and he was a toddler again. Did Genma somehow force him to eat a toadstool of youth or something? Ranma knew that the old bastard would try to track him down again but with his new look it would be difficult to find him.

Genma would rue the day when he met the Demon Fox Kyuubi. Ranma decided that his full name in his twenty seven year old form was going to be, Ranma Kyuubi no Kitsune which was translated in English as: Ranma the Nine tailed Fox Demon. He found it to be a nice name for him as it struck so close to the truth. Tonight he would start training again in the stealth arts.

Another chapter finished. I hope you all liked it. Please review it and I'll be happy. Kurenai will be a part of the pairing. I hope to get many reviews
