This is a Naruto Fan Fiction only.

"Alright mom let's talk about what test could Dog come up with? He hates betraying team members and considers traitors to be worse than scum. As far as I know there are two tests that he could use. He could do the free for all battle test or the infamous bell test."

Mom looked at me and smiled that particularly easy to understand smile. "He is not going to pick something as easy as a battle between each other. Everyone of you is educated to be ninja, you could fake your fights. No, he is going to pick the one that has you betray each other to win. There is no mystery it's going to be the Hokage's bell test."

I looked disappointed when she said that, because I truly was. "Darn, and here I was hoping for the battle test. I don't need much motivation to brake that howler monkey's neck. After six years of being in the same class as her. Killing her should also be considered a service to Konoha."

Mom gave me the look, and I knew what was coming. "You might think so son, but in reality it would be considered treason and a reason to execute you. Now stop thinking about killing the girl that bothers your lover. They just got to the field."

I opened my eyes and I saw both my teammates, alright the girl I loved pretending to be a guy and the pink haired howler monkey. If she started throwing her feces at me it might make her look the part, but then again what she usually screams either about me or at me could count as doing that.

"Morning Sasuke, Sakura. Nice day we are having? The sky is clear, the air is fresh and you both and fifteen minutes late. So you both must be well rested." Sakura marched right to where I was standing and grabbed my shirt it seems the howler monkey wanted to do something obvious.

"Sasuke is late because he was waiting for me! I am late because as a moron like you wouldn't know girls take longer to get ready in the morning!" I looked at Sasuke asking her if that was true? She just told me no by shaking her head.

"So Kakashi is this going to be every time we meet or just the few initial times? Don't bother staying up there. God I hate the smell of your lousy aftershave. I guess this is why you told us to skip breakfast and boy am I glad I did. That smell could make a pig throw up, Isn't that right Sakura?"

She punched me in the gut, and walked away. I was talking about the horrible smell I guess she thought I called her a pig like she called Into for years.

Kakashi jumped down and looked at me with an almost angry glare. "Actually Naruto I wear it to test which of our little team has any sensor abilities. If you could smell me from up there you are as good as one of the dogs from the Inuzuka Clan."

I watched him walk in front of all three of us. "Let's get started with the test shall we? Your task is a simple one, get a bell from me and you can used any means to get your bell." He reached inside his vest pocket and pulled two bells tied together.

"As you notice there are only two bells. Which means only two of you will pass if you they get a bell. I hate wasting time so the one that doesn't get a bell I'll just kill that failure. I am supposed to send him or her back to the academy but why waste time training someone who failed?"

"You got thirty minutes and that time started to count when I first said the word bells."

The way he disappeared told me we been talking to a shadow clone this entire time.

"Ok, before we end up doing something stupid we need to do something that Sakura is going to hate." That was when she said that I was finally going to admit being gay and that I had a crush on Sasuke too.

I glared at her. "I think he means team work Sakura. Admit it you be pretty happy if he was gay, you probably try to humiliate him till he commits suicide. So Naruto what's the plan?" I guess Sayomi really got to know me in our time we been a couple.

"K.I.S.S. Keep it simple stupid. I make a extra resilient shadow clone. You Sakura stab him repeatedly acting like you lost your mind, you know not that hard for you. Kakashi hates traitors he will try to detain you but also ask you why you did it."

"Sakura you keep him distracted and while he is distracted Sasuke and I will sneak behind him and take his bells. Don't give me that look Sakura, we are all going to pass or we all sit with each other for our execution. We win or lose but we do it together!"

Sakura was looking at Sasuke trying to figure what he would do. "Even if we keep the bells you know we would fail the test anyways. It's back to the academy for all of us. A team of genin is a three person squad. It has been like than since we had squads. You know he wouldn't kill me or Sakura don't you Naruto?"

I nodded my head as Sayomi said that. "Yea, you're the last of the ever precious Uchiha Clan and Sakura's mom is a council member. Sasuke you hide in the underbrush of that tree over there. I will hide in the bushes by that thorn bush. Let's go team time is against us on this one."

As the plan began to be put into action. Something didn't quite feel right. The plan was progressing smoothly, if not a little too smoothly for my liking. Kakashi was not going to be dumb enough to fall for something that simple. The only problem was unlike Sayomi, Sakura spent more time worrying about her looks than her actual physical skills.

Sure enough Kakashi appeared to stop Sakura from killing my clone, but instead of Sakura he was caught by surprise as my clone substituted himself with her. The second he had his hands on Kakashi he send lightning chakra through his hands and shocked him.

Kakashi was not ready for this since I did most of my element manipulation and chakra training within my mother. He was knocked out cold, Sayomi and Sakura both looked quite surprised since this was not in the plan.

I calmly took the bells from the belt pouch and told the others we needed to get away from him. As we ran Sayomi decided to ask me something. "Naruto why didn't you follow the plan?"

Sakura just had to say that I was so stupid, I probably forgot the plan. 'Would someone remind me why I am helping this howler monkey?' mom said because it was the right thing to do.

"It's pretty obvious he listened to our plan and was going to use it against us. So I changed it the last second to catch him by surprise. Don't you think that was a good idea Kakashi?"

Out of the nearby tree he came down and he looked a little odd, he looked mad but was laughing as he walked up to Naruto. "That paralysis technique we learn in ANBU. Guess you still have a few secrets I haven't managed to learn. As for the plan I don't see anything wrong with it, except how did you manage to heal from those cuts and staves Sakura gave you?"

Sakura looked at me and then at Sasuke she had a look of utter surprise on her face. "Sakura anyone that knows how to do the Shadow Clone technique knows this fact, if you give a hard enough hit a shadow clone will disappear. The one you were pretending to mutilate was the real Naruto."

"He just risked his life to try and get you and Sasuke to pass this exam. Mind telling me why Naruto?" I tossed both bells one to Sayomi and the other to Sakura. Sakura looked a little confused as I walked up to Kakashi.

"I remember a friend once told me something, kind of stuck with me. A person who abandons a mission is scum, but a person that abandons teammates is worse than scum. Mom had a suspicion this was a teamwork test, and I don't abandon teammates. Even if they hate me enough to wish for my death every single day."

I looked at him and tried to remain serious, but the way he was smiling made it a bit hard for me to do that. "So we can work together, watch out for each other and put our differences aside if needed. So what's the verdict do we pass? Or do I spend anorther year with Mizuki?"

He looked at Sayomi in her disguised form and Sakura. He then turned around and threw me a bell from his best pocket. "As I see it each one of you got a bell. As far as I am concerned you each pass now how about we go get our first mission!"

They both looked so excited as we walked towards the Hokage Building. I would be excited too had my mother not taught me about mission ranks. They must be thinking that they are going to rescue people, stop bandits from attacking a caravan, or even protect a member of the royal family. I knew better than expect something like that.

We walked into the office to see the smiling face of the Hokage. "Well sir Team Seven ready for service Lord Hokage, Do you have a mission for us?" I walked over to pick a nice book about medical techniques, forensic medical techniques to be more specific.

I picked it up and began reading the intro. It was a nicely written book by Tsunade Senju. The Hokage was doing his fake look through the pile of mission scrolls by the sounds he was making.

I wanted to tell him to quit wasting my time and give us our D rank chore. I didn't do that for several reasons. First this book really was well written, second it would be disrespectful to the Hokage and mom raised me better than to do that, and lastly I just didn't have the heart to crush her hopes as she waited to get our first mission.

He finally got a scroll and began to nod his head. "I got the perfect mission for you. It seems a citizen is fighting against a relentless enemy which threatens to destroy her most price possessions. Your mission Team Seven is to eliminate that enemy and do so while safeguarding the clients treasure."

I just asked if I could borrow the book, the Hokage told me I could keep it. Call it an early birthday present.

It was exactly what I figured it was going to be. The client an old widow that lived in the village, the relentless enemy was weeds, and her priced possessions a bunch of rose bushes. I guess the Hokage had a taste for the dramatic.

I sent three shadow clones to do my share of the gardening so I could keep reading thus fascinating book. I had no idea you could learn so much from a dead body. I guess it makes sense why hunter ninja always burn the remains after they cut off their target's head as proof.

Kakashi looked at Sasuke and Sakura knee deep in weeds and then walked to were I was still reading. "I think you could help them, unless that book is just so good that you can't put it down."

I just looked at my teammates and at my shadow clones before I decided to tell Kakashi what I thought about the book. "I happen to also remember how a friend of mine told me her Captain would not stop reading a smut filled orange book. I am just reading on things I might need to know for later missions, but yes it really is a good book."

"Cat should really learn to keep this that happen in our squad to herself. She was just there to make sure you are safe, not chat with you." Was it my imagination or was Kakashi actually upset that Cat chats with me more than me calling Hus beloved book series smut?

I looked at him and put the book back in my belt pouch. It's amazing what you can do with seals. My belt pouch could practically carry a house full of furniture.

"It wasn't Cat that told me it was Kiba's mom. She talks with me every once in a while. Just about every time I whipped the sparing area with her son. Which if you can tell happenned often. I don't even know why Kiba hates me so much?"

Kakashi looked at my teammates and they were doing the same thing my shadow clones were doing. "These missions are so that a team can get used to working together under safe conditions. It's not done to simply annoy new academy graduates you know."

I looked up and knew what he was trying to say. "I don't know about Sakura's abilities, but I know me and Sasuke are ready for anything below an S rank. I killed bandit camps as stress relief. I have the crazy notion to tell the Hokage let me send a few dozen shadow clones and they can do the chores."

"Then we could probably stop wasting our time and for the love of god get Sakura some actual training." Kakashi smiled as I finished talking and looked at me.

"Then why didn't you tell him that?" I said it would be disrespectful to him if I said something that might sound like I knew how to do the training of my squad better than him.

"Well since you mentioned it, I do think I like that idea more than doing this. You have to limit the number of missions to five per day though. Don't want to ruin the fun for the other squads now do we?"
