Chapter one: Squad of Havoc!
"BEEPBEEPBEEP! BEEPBEEPBEEP! BEEPBEEPBEEPBEEEEEEEEEEEEP!" Kyohaku Akuma sat up and turned off his alarm clock; he walked over to the bathroom of his small apartment and looked at his bright blonde hair.
"Man, you never want to work WITH me do you?" he said to his hair, for the reason: it's always messy.
THUMP! Akuma sighed again and looked up to the ceiling,
"Naruto, you dunce." he said with a smile as his upstairs-neighbor fell off of his small bed in an attempt to roll over and ignore the sunlight.
Akuma was a former academy student at the age of 13; he had entered the ninja academy 2 years late, on purpose. He wanted to at least try and get on the same team as his best friend, Naruto.
"And today I will see if Naruto and I are on the same team, I wonder if he's still shaken up by the Mizuki incident." Akuma wondered,
Akuma's mind trailed back to that "night" so to speak, (2 am) when Naruto came banging on his door yelling about how he had passed and defeated a Chunin.
(A/N: Akuma weighs 105 pounds, has blonde hair that's bright in the sunlight and very dark without the sun, he always wears a grey long sleeve shirt, blue cotton pants, and he has gray eyes.)
He put on his ninja headband and fixed his hair so all of it was down except two little upside down diablo style horn shaped hairs in the front, the metal plate of his headband was on the left side of his head, and he walked out the door and breathed deep.
"Okay, now that you all have passed successfully, I will now announce the teams" stated Iruka,
"First up, Nara Shikamaru, Haruno Sakura, Akamichi Chouji." Several groans were heard at the stating of these names,
"Okay, next, Aburame Shino, Inuzuka Kiba, and Uchiha Sasuke." Not much disagreement here, except a grunt from Sasuke.
"And finally, Kyohaku Akuma, Uzumaki Naruto, and Hyuuga Hinata."
Akuma restrained himself from letting out a little 'YES!', he and Naruto were finally on the same team, and plus, he liked Hinata, but she never even noticed him except when he bumped into her a few weeks ago, then they had become friends, Well, maybe she would like to eat lunch with me and Naruto at Ichiraku. He followed her out as they broke for lunch.
5 Hours later
Naruto and team seven sat waiting for their new sensei,
"What the heck is he doing!" exclaimed Naruto,
"Maybe he's…t-t-trying to g-get here…uuum." Hinata stuttered through her sentence as she looked at Naruto, turned beat red, and looked away.
Akuma, luckily, didn't notice this but instead was…well…sleeping.
Suddenly, Naruto stood up, he put his hands in a cross formation, using two fingers from each hand, and yelled out "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" Suddenly, there was two Narutos!
Hinata gasped,
Akuma awoke, looked at Naruto, looked at the other Naruto, reminded himself not to eat before sleeping, and fell asleep again.
As Kakashi approached the door where his students would be, he swore he heard a small giggle.
Suddenly, the door began to open; a man with silver hair began to appear, when, out of nowhere, a Naruto jumped down to land on his head, laughing evilly as he fell.
The silver haired man took one step forward; the Naruto clone smacked into the ground and disappeared in a puff of smoke.
Kakashi looked around the room at the gasping Naruto, the blushing Hinata and the…wait…is that one sleeping? Kakashi asked himself. He walked over, placed his face right in front of Akuma's, and tapped lightly on his head with a kunai knife.
Akuma sleepily opened his eyes and looked up, a man with a mask on, silver hair, and his headband going over his left eye was staring at him from about an inch away, Akuma's brain took a moment to analyze this, then he promptly screamed and fell backwards off of his chair.
Naruto laughed so hard that his own legs couldn't support him, so he fell facedown on the floor, Hinata just blushed and pleaded Naruto would stop laughing in her mind,
"My first impression of this group," sighed Kakashi, "is you're a bunch of idiots." That got all three of the ninja's attention. Especially Naruto's, Kakashi sighed again and said
"Meet me on the roof team seven, I hate classrooms, bad memories." Kakashi disappeared. Several minutes later the entire group was seated at the edge of the roof of the ninja academy.
"Okay, now for some introductions…"
"Why don't you introduce yourself huh, gramps? We know absolutely nothing about you." Interrupted Akuma,
"Okay, my name is Hatake Kakashi, NOT GRAMPS! I like, well, I like a lot of things, my dreams for the future, well I don't feel like telling you that, my hobbies, I have lots of hobbies. Now you go, do as I did, say your name, what you like, what you don't like, and your dreams for the future, and your hobbies. Ladies should always go first so, you're up!" he pointed to Hinata, who in turn blushed,
"My name is Hyuuga Hinata, what I like, um…um…I…um…I l-like…." Hinata went completely red and went silent as she tried not look at Naruto lest he notice how red she was.
"I'll go next!" exclaimed Naruto, "My name is Uzumaki Naruto, I like instant cup ramen, I especially like the ramen Iruka-sensei bought me at the Ichiraku Noodle Shop, I dislike the 3 minutes you have to wait after pouring boiling water into the cup, my hobbies are trying different ramen with Akuma and seeing which one is best, and my dream for the future…TO BE THE GREATEST HOKAGE! That way the village will stop disrespecting me and treat me like I'm somebody!"
Kakashi nodded and looked to Akuma…who was…asleep…again, Kakashi walked over and kicked him in the face, "You're up."
Akuma sat up and cleared his throat, "My name…well I don't feeling like telling you it so I'll just tell you my name!" Hinata and Kakashi looked at Akuma like he was nuts, Naruto just sighed and smiled knowingly. "My name is Kyohaku Akuma, I like ramen, my apartment, hanging out with Naruto and training with my sword," he patted his side; there was another reaction of confusion and another knowing smile. "I don't like how they put too much spice in the cup ramen; my hobbies are training, and trying ramen with Naruto, my dreams for the future, to become a Jonin and find my mother!"
Kakashi seemed quite interested by this statement. "Okay, team seven, tomorrow you will go through my survival exam! I know you must be thinking that it's a waste of time but if you fail, you go back to the academy! And by the way, skip breakfast or you'll puke."
Akuma walked out onto the training field two hours early and sat down on the open grass, for a nap, of course. He was in the middle of a good dream when suddenly he woke to a great pain on his nose. "Whad was dat forb?" He asked.
"You're always asleep, so now if you sleep during a mission or when I am talking I will hit you in the face." Smiled Kakashi, "Okay team seven, today this is what you must do," he pulled two bells from his pockets and tied them to his ninja vest, "get these bells from me before lunch, that alarm clock over there on the wooden posts is set for noon, whoever doesn't get a bell will be tied up to one of those posts and will fail, on top of that, you don't get lunch."
Akuma's stomach grumbled and he grasped his shirt. No way am I failing this! I am finally on Naruto's team and I am making sure me AND him make it, even if we have to leave Hinata behind, I really don't want to, I like her! But I don't know if I can fight on an empty stomach! I can barely stand missing one meal, much less two! Thought Akuma as he readied himself.
"Ready? Set? GO!" yelled Kakashi; all three genin disappeared in a gust of wind. Kakashi stood alone as he tried to pinpoint where the youngsters were. "Well at least they can hide well enough."
Meanwhile, Naruto spun around when he heard a twig snap, only to see a rabbit, so Naruto turned back to Kakashi, watching him, waiting for him to drop his guard. Suddenly, from above, he heard a stifled laugh. "Okay Akuma, what did I mess up on now?" asked Naruto without even looking to see who it was,
"You didn't see my tracks, I left them there on purpose to check up on your tracking skills." Akuma said and let a smile erupt from his mouth.
"So, you gonna take me out? Use one of your Genjutsus to make me think I'm sleeping only to knock me out or somethin' like that?"
Akuma shook his head and pointed to Kakashi, "You may think you can take him with your Kage Bunshin no Jutsu, but this guy is way out of both of our leagues!" exclaimed Akuma.
"So, I just need a bell right? I'll just grab a bell and run." Akuma once again shook his head,
"Won't work, you know about my 'special ability', and how I can see an opponent's charka flow and strength, this guy is way too powerful for any of us!" exclaimed Akuma.
"No way!" Naruto argued.
"It's true! I doubt he'll use his full strength though because he thinks we're weak, but if we attack together we can easily defeat him and take both bells, Hinata may be left behind but we couldn't find her if we tried, I mean, she's a Hyuuga, and plus we both have dreams to fulfill!" Akuma almost yelled.
"YEA!" Naruto did yell.
"Oh, so there you two are!" Kakashi said with his little eye smile. Naruto looked up at Kakashi, whom was suddenly right in front of them.
Naruto ran forward "I'll go first Akuma!" Suddenly, Naruto was strung up the tree by an ankle trap, "AAAAAAGH! WHERE DID THIS COME FROM! HELP ME!" suddenly, Naruto fell. The normal human eye could not have seen what happened, but Kakashi saw a flicker of light reflecting metal going outward from Akuma's hip. Kakashi's mind did a rewind, I like my apartment, hanging out with Naruto, and training with my sword! at the time Kakashi thought the kid was a nutcase, but he somehow has swords that are invisible until taken out.
Naruto jumped up and used his typical Jutsu, "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" now there was 10 Narutos facing Kakashi,
Akuma followed up, seeing a few puddles nearby and summoned up an immense amount of chakra for his best Jutsu, "Mizu Bunshin no Jutsu," Suddenly, there was 7 Akumas! Kakashi's eyes widened in something he hadn't felt in a long time, excitement.

Me: Sorry about it being kind of short but I am tired and am ending it here and now. Also I made Kakashi a bit more…brutal, let's say.
Naruto: this is a serious waste of time; we all know what will happen. You're modeling it almost exactly off of the-
Me: -punch- SHUT UP! AND ALOT OF THINGS ARE CHANGED!
Naruto: -knocked out-
Akuma: -snore-
