Anime-boy- Wow my story is doing pretty good for me being a first timer at writing action scenes. I know that they worked a little bit to well in the test, but that was like a one time only. They just knew they had to work together to pass, but now their teamwork will be a little iffy. I should just stop babbling and get on with the story huh? Well here it is… chapter three. One more thing can you guys give me a list of jutsus that Kurenai and the others use? My Intelligence is low in that apartment. (Crystal Inferno- It's department you idiot! Your lucky I read your story before you post! Like I have time!)

Disclaimer- I don't Naruto, but if I did Shino would totally have a girlfriend!

Side Chapter 1 Bowl of Ramen

Naruto really did not want to eat alone tonight since he just graduated. So he rushed off the way Hinata left and asked her a very serious question. "Hey Hinata want to go get some ramen to celebrate passing that test?" asked Naruto with a huge grin on his face.

Hinata turned so red she looked almost as dark as blood and cloud only stuttered out. "S-s-sure."

Naruto notice her red face and asked the usually, "Hinata are you okay? You look like you have a fever."

All she could stutter out was, "I-I am f-fine." And with that they were off.

Irchruaka's (Someone help me spell it plz!)

While Naruto was on his fifth bowl, Hinata was only on her first and could only think 'I am eating with Naruto. No big deal just don't do something stupid.' Naruto saw she was barely eating and her face was really red. "Hinata are you sure you are ok? You look like you have a fever." Said Naruto and with that felt her head with his hand to check how hot she was.

Hinata just couldn't take anymore. A few seconds after Naruto touch her, she fainted. Naruto quickly grabbed her before she fell. "Why does she always do this?" groaned Naruto while he started to carry Hinata off to her mansion.

All the old man from Irchuaka's do was chuckle when Naruto left. 'That Kid still doesn't get it.'

Naruto didn't want Hinata's father get the wrong idea, so he jumped over the wall and laid Hinata against a tree. Before he left Hinata got a glimpse of Naruto's azure eyes and thought they were the most beautiful things ever, but that train of thought stop when her father came around the corner.

"HEY WHO ARE YOU! GET THE HELL OUT OF MY HOUSE!" yelled Hiashi Naruto's eyes went to friendly to 'holy crap I am screwed'. With that he jumped off the wall before Hiashi got to him with his gentle fist. Hinata just remembered one thing that night. His eyes….

Yet she still had to face her angry father, which was very bad.

Wait till the next side chapter!

Chapter 3- Super top Mission aka Old Bridge builder!

Deep in a nearby forest four figures are pursing something on the outskirt of Kohona. "How far away is the target?" a young woman's voice asked on a communicator.

"Five meters and closing…" said a young boy.

"I am ready!" muttered an excited young boy.

"I-I a-am in p-position." Squeaked a young girl.

"GO!" said the young.

Three figures jumped at the thing they were pursing. "OWWW!" yelled Naruto as a cat started to furiously scratch him. The young girl Hinata wanted to somehow help, but was to afraid to get close to Naruto.

"Neji can you confirm the target?" asked Kurenai.

"Red ribbon on the cats ear. Target confirmed." Neji said in his emotionless voice as ever.

"GOOD! Mission Complete!" said a happy Kurenai.

AT THE HOKAGE TOWER!

"Mission Complete lord Hokage." said Kurenai.

"Good. Now Team seven's next assignments will be to baby-sit for the council of elders, run errands for the neighboring village, and pick up dog crap in the park…" (WTF! Oo) said the third Hokage

"BORRRRING! NO THANK YOU! I AM SICK AND TIRED OF THIS STUFF! GIVE US SOMETHING MORE DANGEROUS TO DO!" yelled Naruto.

'The dope has got a point' thought Neji. 'Naruto…' Hinata was concern that Naruto would get in trouble for yelling at the Hokage. 'I know I am going be in trouble for his little out burst' thought Kurenai.

Iruka then began yelling at Naruto for his behavior and the privilege for doing these missions. Then the Hokage step in talking about the mission ranks with his eyes close feeling proud of himself that Naruto understand, but that wasn't what he saw when he opened his eyes.

Naruto was talking about which ramen he was going to eat and how good ramen was. He just politely yelled, "ARE YOU EVEN LISTENING!"

"YAYAYAYA! BUT SERIOUSLY! I'M NOT A TROUBLE MAKER ANYMORE! I AM A FULL FLEDGE SHINOBI! I WANT A REAL MISSION!" argued Naruto

"Well now that you put that way…" everyone look at the Third, anxious to hear his answer. "You will be assigned a C rank mission. You will be guarding a bridge builder to his country and wait there till he finishes building the bridge.

The door behind began to open and in came an old man with a bottle of sake in his hand. "These are the ones who are suppose to protect me? They look like they are wet behind their ears. Especially the short one with the stupid grin on his face."

"Ha which is the stupid short one?" exclaimed Naruto then noticing he was talking about him. "Hahaha very funny. Can't wait till your in trouble and you come begging to me." Naruto said while smirking.

Before the argument went any further Kurenai pulled Naruto and the others away to accept the mission. She then brief them on the mission, told them which jutsus to prepare and to get a good night's sleep. Then they wet on their own separate ways, waiting the next morning (especially Naruto) with anticipation.

THE NEXT MORNING

"Feels good to finally be out of that village!" Naruto exclaimed, trembling with excitement.

"What's that runt yelling about?" asked Tazuna

"Ummm, he doesn't get out much." Kurenai simply said.

"Hey kid just shut up, so we can have some peace and quiet," stated Tazuna.

"Why should I listen to you, ya old fart bag!" asked Naruto sarcastically

"WHAT YOU SAY PUNK!" yelled Tazuna, his blood boiling.

"One day you'll respect me when I become Hokage and that day is going to be soon." Naruto told the bridge builder and casually walked away.

"You…Hokage. No way," stated Tazuna, his voice dripping with complete sarcasm.

Kurenai knew how angry Naruto felt by people not believing in him, so she quieted them down and they were off to the land of waves.

About 4 hours later

Everything was going smoothly till they got to the dock. Kurenai was just explaining about the Shinobi villages when they past a puddle. Everyone knew that the puddle was disguise since there hadn't been rain for months.

They started to walk past the puddle when two figures intertwined with one another, came out and attacked them from behind.

The two men were connected to a chain and they try to wrap around all the group of ninjas and Tazuna, but that backfired when every member of team seven threw kunai at the two rouge ninja. They barely dodged them.

Naruto started to attack on his own by using his favorite Jutsu Kage Bun shin no Jutsu. But before he got to the first guy Neji stopped him and simply said, "I'll take care of him. You have no chance against him." While this was happening Hinata was protecting Tazuna in her Gentle fist style.

Kurenai was fighting the other ninja and saw that her students weren't doing so well in teamwork. She on the other hand needed to take this guy out fast.

Neji then rushed in smirking and started to attack the guy with his gentle fist. With one shot he got the ninja in the heart with the juken, but suddenly notice it was a water clone. He quickly turned around to see another one coming at him.

Right before he shot his gauntlet, about ten orange blurs came from the sky and tackled him to the ground, yet it was another water clone. From a top another one came and was aiming for both Naruto and Neji. Before he got to them Kurenai came out of nowhere and kicked him right on the noggin to find out that the real one was aiming for Tazuna with Hinata between him.

Hinata was ready and throw an attack, but the ninja dodged by going above her. But Hinata then used her Juken and hit him right in the jaw to send him flying.

While he was flying Naruto hit him in the gut to send him down to the ground and knocked him unconscious.

Instead of telling good job team Kurenai started to lecture them about their teamwork. "That wasn't the same team I saw during the test. Where was the teamwork I saw? When we get to the wave country we are going to have a little training session about teamwork. Especially for you two." Said Kurenai glaring at Neji and Naruto.

Before they could argue back she turned to Tazuna, "And don't think you're off the hook Tazuna. You got some explaining to do."
