*A/N What up, people! Wow, I never expected this story to be so well received. Barely two weeks since I published this story and I already have almost 140 followers! Let's see if this chapter gets me to closer to 200. Though sadly most of you aren't reviewing, I can understand that as I don't review every story I read but it is still nice to get them.

I bet some of you are mad that I re-uploaded he first three chapters but as I was reading through them making sure I didn't make mistakes on this one. I found a lot in those. Mostly grammar and making the paragraphs to damn long so I am fixing them to try and make them easier to read. I also forgot the disclaimer in the last two chapters and don't wanna get my ass sued so here we go.

There is a lemon here for my fellow perverts out there, (Power to the ero!) and a fight scene in this chapter. Be warned this is my first attempt at both so don't expect too much.

Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto, One Piece, Bleach or any part of any anime I may use in this story. If I did, I wouldn't be writing this shit.

*STORY START!

Chapter 4 Making the Grade

*Konoha Academy

'SERIOUSLY?!' is what was in the thoughts of the whisker marked host. He couldn't believe it. He was being teamed up with the three women that had feelings for him, some stronger than others but that was beside the point. Then he got a look at his raven haired friend's smug expression and thought. 'You bastard! You knew about this didn't you, you smug duck haired sonnuva bitch!' Just then a thought occurred to him.

"Ne, Iruka-sensei? Not that I am complaining or think it's a bad idea, but I heard that usually the Rookie of the year, and the Top Kunoichi were teamed with the Dead Last to balance out the teams. I know Sasuke and Hanabi are at the top of the class but Ami is nowhere near the Dead Last. Hell, she was in the Top Ten. Did I hear wrong?" questioned Naruto with his usual even tone. Iruka looked slightly impressed Naruto knew that and chose to answer the question.

"Usually that is in fact the case Naruto, but due to reasons I can't tell you yet the Hokage decided not to follow that tradition this year." said the scarred Chuunin while trying to keep a neutral face. The whole class knew what he was thinking though.

'Splitting up the Kongou Da-su (Diamond Dozen) just to follow some stupid tradition would have been idiotic and the Hokage knew it.'

"Well that is all, it has been a pleasure to have taught all of you and I wish you luck. Your teachers should be here after lunch so come back in an hour or so to meet them, farewell and again good luck." And with that, Iruka left the room leaving his former, and he knew possibly future, students to themselves.

Once he was gone the gang gathered together again. "Well I can't say I'm too surprised but I didn't think it would actually happen." came the monotone voice of Shino, though the slight buzzing coming from him would tell you he was happy.

"Tch, I am not surprised at all. The Hokage knows that we're awesome, so of course he would put the best together!" was the loud reply of the bestial ninja, Kiba.

"Watch it, Kiba. Make sure to control the attitude or it might cost you." Said Naruto in a warning voice… after he had managed to turn his head from Nanami's bust, whom had promptly glompted him to her chest as soon as Iruka had left the room.

"I know bro, I know. Rule number nine, I haven't forgotten." Was Kiba's reply. Of course he remembered. None of them would ever forget the rules they had all chosen to follow in their careers.

"Good now with that done." He look over at his still smug best friend, "You smug bastard, you knew about this, didn't you?" It was a statement more than a question, but Sasuke answered anyway.

"Yes, I did. And the look on your face when you heard it will forever be burned in my mind." He finished with a quick flash of his Sharingan.

"Asshole." Naruto said simply. Sasuke's smile never lessened.

"So guys," came the voice of Ami at Sasuke's side. "We still doing as planned?"

"Totally! We gotta go out with a bang, right?!" was Ino's answer.

"I'm really looking forward to this!" said Guren as she viciously beat down her jealousy that Naruto's head was STILL in Nanami's boobs.

"I still can't believe Naruto actually agreed." said Shikamaru in his usual lazy drawl. "Well, I was made an offer I couldn't refuse." Responded Naruto, to with Chouji immediately chipped in, "Meaning Nanami threatened your ramen intake."

Naruto said nothing while the rest laughed.

Finally Naruto had enough and said, "Alright already. We better get going if we're gonna pull this off." He said as they nodded and they all left for the roof.

*Rooftop

Over the years, the group had developed several hobbies to spend their off time on. Surprisingly, music was a common one among them. This is why we now find the gang on the roof of the Academy with several of Naruto's Kage Bushin using his special Henge no Jutsu (Transformation Technique), which for some reason was solid instead of an illusion like normal, to transform into several instruments which were picked up by the new Genin.

What none of them knew however was that it wasn't a henge at all. A solid henge could only be performed under certain conditions, like the Inuzuka's Juujin Bushin no Jutsu (Beast-Human Clone) or the Monkey contracts Kongounyoi (Adamantine Staff). Naruto's however was actually a Kitsune (Fox) shapeshift.

Another of the perked of having been born to a Jinchuuriki mother.

As they got ready, Naruto and Sasuke on guitar, Shikamaru on bass, Chouji on drums and several others on different instruments, it was Nanami that got everyone's attention.

"What's up Konoha Academy!?" Everyone looked up and where quite surprised to see the best students in the Academy, several of them clan heirs on the roof with several instruments. The students were starting to get exited having a good idea of what was going to happen.

"It's been a hell of a ride, and to be honest, a pain in the ass to get here, but finally we have graduated!" Several cheers were made from the gathered crowd as they agreed with her. "So, since most of us are unlikely to see each other again, we decided to give you a little send off. After we… 'conviced' some of our more stubborn members, that is. *cough*Naruto*cough*" This actually got a few chuckles and a hidden tick mark from the blonde Jinchuuriki. "So without further wait, here you go. Good luck, everyone! Hit it!

*Naruto sings

*Sasuke sings

The music starts playing and the crowd begins to shake their heads to the rhythm.

Dark side in my heart is...
It's always bringing in the sadness that just hides in my past.
It's Alright, cause it's nothing to me
I'll stretch out my arms and fight this fight

My life is in my control.
I'm gazing at this world, but I can't feel my burning soul
It's like I don't exist, and I can't find the power to protect myself.

When was my path chosen for me
Right down this road I've long avoided?
Cause now there's no one left to be my light.

I won't let fate be my guide
I will stand and will make my cry for pride
Ah Ah Ah Alone in my world.
Inside this vibe of love.

Reality and all twisted prayers
Make all my dreams and days ahead just fall apart.
Throwing all the lies away is pointless
Goodbye, precious life.

Dark Cloud in my heart is
Fading away, and letting all the light shine on the road that I'm on
Let's Fight, there's no need to fear.
I've gathered all my strength in my two-edged sword.

My life isn't left in the black
I have a shining light that I can count on to have my back
I feel myself exist again, and I know that I'm never alone

Why was my path chosen for me
Right down this road I've long avoided?
But I won't wait to run through the unknown.

I won't let fate be my guide
And I will take this chance to try for pride
Ah Ah Ah Alone in my world.
And hearing this wave of love

I'll crush the numbness of all the sorrow
That this entire world has given me for far too long
But it's hard to throw away my soul, cause
it's my precious life.

As Naruto rocks his solo, by this point the whole yard is going crazy at their performance. Everyone is on their feat jumping around to the high energy music or screaming to the band in joy.

Yeah!

I won't let fate be my guide
I will stand and will make my cry for pride
Ah Ah Ah Alone in my world.
Inside this vibe of love.

Reality and all twisted prayers
Make all my dreams and days ahead just fall apart.
Throwing all the lies away is pointless

Goodbye, precious life.

Go! Change this destiny of mine,
Cause I will never stop my try for pride.
Ah Ah Ah Alone in my world.
And singing this song of love

I'll let its wish break through all the burdens
To build up all of our bonds and make tomorrow come
All the lies that I threw away have helped cause
It's my precious life.

YEAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!

(End song)

As the music finished, they once again shocked the people by all vanishing using the Shunshin no Jutsu (Body Flicker Technique)(*), leaving behind a cheering crowd and a lot of bras and panties thrown by the cheering women, including one certain Hebi Shoukan (Snake Summoner).

*Classroom

As they reappeared in the classroom, they fell in their seats and Kiba was the first to make a comment.

"Guys that was awesome! We totally rocked!"

"I have to agree we did sound good. We should do that again sometime, right Onii-sama?" said Hinata, looking hopefully at Naruto. When the whiskered teen felt hers and everyone else's stares, thought the rest of his friends had those damn knowing looks on their faces, he simply said, "I'll think about it."

They all smirked when Hinata hugged him. Naruto could never deny Hinata, no matter how much he may want to.

It was here that the doors opened and the rest of their class flooded in, followed by their Jounin-sensei. Calming down, after heaving praise on the group for their performance, one of the Jounin spoke. "Alright settle down! While I agree that was on helluva send-off, it's time to go, Team One, with me…"

And with that the teams left one by one until only the Dozen was left, then it was Kakashi's turn. "Team 7, meet me on the roof." Was all he said before he vanished in a Shunshin.

Then came Kurenai, "Team 8, meet at the gate outside." She then also vanished, this time in flower petals.

She was followed by Asuma, "Team 10, follow me." Then he simply walked out the door.

Finally, that left our blonde hero alone with some of the most important people in his life. Mikoto just walked over and winked at them. "Bet you weren't expecting this, huh." She said playfully.

Nanami just gave her an innocent punch on her shoulder and said, "You sneaky bitch, how long have you been keeping this a secret."

"Oh, not long only about 2 days or so. Now there is something you should know. You are not Genin yet." Said the Uchiha matriarch, making the two girls blink surprise, though Naruto remained calm, already knowing what was happening.

It was Guren who spoke next, "Wait, what do you mean we are not Genin yet? We passed the test!"

Mikoto simply chuckled, "You didn't think that was it, did you? Honey, that test was just a way to weed out the hopeless cases from the ones with actual potential to be Genin of the Leaf. Now your real test will be held tomorrow at Training Ground 11 at 8:00 a.m. I suggest you all take that time to prepare, Ja ne! (See you later!)" With that she left, Naruto was about to stop her so they could all talk about the thing he needed to say when Kurami's voice stopped him.

"Naru-koi, wait!"

'Why, Kurami? You yourself said I needed to tell them.' Thought back the blonde, confused as to why his lover had seemingly changed her mind.

"I know what I said Koibito (Lover, Sweetheart) but I that was when I thought you would have gotten your real test over with today. No need for unnecessary thoughts when their careers are on the line."

'*sigh* I guess you're right, I just wanna get this over with.' He honestly believed they deserved to know what was going on.

"Kukukuku, don't worry, baby. I'll make it up to you for making you wait tonight." The tone in which she spoke sent a shiver down his spine. It was definitely going to be an 'interesting' night.

He was brought out of his thought by a voice on his side, "Naruto-kun?" The blonde looked to his left to find the concerned face of Guren.

"Yes?"

"Are you alright, you kinda spaced out there." She said, looking at the blonde in slight worry.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. What were we talking about?" He reassured her.

This time it was Nanami who answered. "We were discussing what our test might be. Any ideas?" questioned the hazel eyed girl. She knew he was talking to Kurami, or as she knew her Kyuubi, but Guren seemed to forget he was a host sometimes. The entire group knew of Naruto's status and some of his past. They were all quite frankly were shocked and disgusted at the prejudice and flat out stupidity of most of Konoha's population.

"Most likely some kind of teamwork test. Camaraderie is Konoha's highest edict, so they would want their Genin teams to be able to work together well. I would suggest we all go home and prepare, though I need to talk to all of you tomorrow after the test." Answered the whiskered blonde.

"About what Naruto-kun?" Nanami questioned her best friend of many years.

"Nothing that can't wait until tomorrow." Was his reply as he left for home, leaving the two to do…. Whatever the hell it is girls do when alone.

A giggle echoed inside his mind.

*Later that night, Lair, Naruto's room."

We find our blonde hero getting ready for bed thinking on the coming days event. "Of course she would tease us for not knowing. Really, I should have seen it coming since the Academy. Mikoto always did love the 'I know something you don't' bit." Murmured the blonde. Honestly, it was bloody frustrating having the answers you want right in front of you and not being able to do anything to get them.

"I can think of a few ways to get the answers you want, Naru-koi." Spoke an, oh so familiar, sultry voice in head.

'Pervert.' Thought Naruto with a deadpan expression. 'Besides, we still don't know that she will want to be with me after I tell her everything.'

"No, you don't know. I am still betting she will jump your bones the first chance she gets. Especially since, if what Sasuke told us last year is true, she hasn't had sex in almost two decades and has never had good sex, period." was Kurami's reply to the, in her opinion, stupid thought.

'Is sex all you ever think about when I am not there.' thought back Naruto with an amused, for him, expression.

"Only when it comes to you Love. Now, strip those boxers and get in here. After all I still haven't forgotten about my promise." Was the sensual response of his lover. As he stripped of the last of his clothing and got into bed, and the thought 'I wonder if I'll actually sleep tonight' idly went through his mind as he got ready for another night with his fiery beloved.

***LEMON ALERT! LEMON ALERT! ALL MINORS SKIP TO THE NEXT BOLD LINE (This is my first lemon so please, be gentle.)****

When he opened his eyes, our whiskered hero found himself inside the familiar living room in his mind, dressed in his usual relaxation clothes of a loose shirt and pants. What was different now though was the complete darkness in the room lit only by the trail of scented candles leading to his beloved's bedroom. As he entered, he was greeted to one his favorite sites in the world illuminated only by the soft light of the candles in the room.

There, sitting elegantly at the foot of the bed, her legs delicately crossed to the right in front of her, was his crimson haired lover, Kurumi, looking at him with seductive half lidded eyes. She was dressed in a very loose red silk kimono with black edges, which was just barely tied together with a black obi sash, showing of a generous amount of cleavage from her, now, high-C cup breast. It reached her mid-shins when standing and was slit on the sides up to her upper thigh. Her long red hair flowed freely, a few strands falling in front of her face actually making her more enticing, if that was even possible.

She stood off the bed and slowly made her way toward him, her hips swaying hypnotically with every step, her beautiful smile still in place. As she came to a stop in front of him, her hands gently placed on his chest and gazed up into his eyes, him being just slightly taller than her at 5' even.

Their eyes meet, love and adoration reflecting in pools of ruby and sapphire. His left hand wrapped softly around her waist, his right rising to cup her heart shaped face. She nuzzled it, a satisfied sigh escaping her lips as she closed her eyes and basked in the warmth of her beloved's touch. He gently brought her face to his as their lips met in a soft, yet passionate, kiss. Her arms rose to snake around his neck as his own wrapped themselves around her waist. The separated, both slightly out of breath, a small thread of saliva keeping them connected. They looked in each other's eyes once more and softly nodded as they reengaged their lips in another kiss and Naruto picked her up bridal style to carry her to the bed.

No words were said.

They were not needed.

Naruto laid Kurami gently on the crimson covers of their bed and moved himself to hover above her. He disengaged the kiss, ignoring her disappointed whine, and laid another kiss on her left cheek. Then he moved down her jaw line before coming to her neck. Here her breath started to pick up as her blonde lover nipped, kissed and gently suckled at her neck and throat. Their hands were not idle as her right hand pulled him closer to her and her left ran through is blonde locks as his own right hand caressed her exposed thigh, his left supporting his weight above her.

Naruto continued his southward advance as he kissed and nipped at her collarbone and chest until he reached her Valley of Wonder. He smiled as he lifted himself up, untied her obi, and gently separated the kimono revealing what, to him, was one of the most beautiful things in the world. Her pleasure flushed face was staring at him with half lidded eyes, her smile lustful and inviting, her arms laying loosely above her head jutting out her large breasts, rising and falling with her slightly deep breaths, dark pink nipples standing erect in arousal, her smooth but still firm stomach showing a gentle curve down to her narrow waist and wide hips. Her mound was clean shaven with not a single hair on it and slightly dripping to show her arousal. From behind her, a single read furred tail made its presence known.

She always reduced her tails to a single one whenever they made love.

All in all she looked the epitome of seduction, and it drove him wild with want.

He continued his journey down her body, stopping for a moment to suck and gently grope her assets with one hand while the other gently rubbed her sacred garden. Her moans and hisses of pleasure were like music to him as he inserted a single finger in her moist folds, gently pumping it in and out. He continued down her body, getting a small giggle when he stopped to play with her navel, until finally he came to his prize.

He always thought there was something odd about this, either she was doing it herself, it was a demon thing or he was just that in love with her. But as he reached her, by now, dripping vagina he couldn't help but think she smelled wonderful. Sticking out his tongue , he took a long, hard lick of her folds savoring both the taste of her love juice and the load moan of pleasure he extracted from the Bijuu Queen. Spurred on by the sound he placed her legs over his shoulders and enthusiastically dove in, dipping his tongue in her folds while the crimson haired beauty was quite vocal about her approval.

"O-ooh, Oh Kami-sama! FUCK! Aaaah, ah! Oh yes, right there baby! Oh…..Ugh, that feels so good! Ah, ah, ah, aaaah!" Where some of the breathless words uttered by the demonness, as she grabbed handfuls of the bed sheets, trying to keep from going over the edge too soon. But all that ended when Naruto gently bit her clit finally sending her into ecstasy, "I'm cummmmmmmiiiiing! Aaaaaahhhhhhh!" she cried as Naruto lapped up the sweet nectar from her flower petal. As Kurami finally came down from her bliss, she grabbed the sides of his head and pulled him into a deep passionate kiss, not caring if she could taste herself. "Please baby, no more teasing. I need it!" she said her voice full of desire and slight desperation.

He nodded and he stood from the bed and began to undress himself. As he did, his many scars, both from training and his life in general showed. Kurami had told him to never be ashamed of them. To her they were a sign of his strength of will, a testament to the hell he had faced and had come out the other side from. When he was free of his final piece of clothing, Kurami took the time to drink in his form.

His body were toned, conditioned and trained for the perfect mix of speed, mobility and power. Hard, compacted muscle lay beneath, scarred lightly tanned skin. Most scars were small, no more than an inch in length, but there were a few that stood out, the circle of the bottle he'd been stabbed with on the day they meet on his right side, and 2 coiling ones on each of his forearms from when he had been strung up with ninja wire and used like an actual punching bag, just to name a few.

These far from turned her away, they were a reminder of what he had lived and overcome to become what he was today, what he went through to be the man she loved more than anything.

But the thing that drew her eyes most at the moment though was the 8 ½ inch cock(**) she had affectionately named King Dong, the Virgin Breaker, standing tall and at attention, which practically had her salivating. The only thought in her mind at that moment was, 'And he's still growing!" When Naruto was finally between her legs, he grabbed his erection and rubbed it to her fold trying to use her own juices to lube it up. The whole time he did, she squirmed impatiently at the feeling of his hardness on her dripping snatch, "Hurry Koi, hurry I can't wait anymore!" The need was clear in her voice as he smirked looking like he had been aiming for that reaction. Faster than she could react, he bent down and sealed her mouth with his own as he plunged his erection up to the hilt into her womanhood.

The effect was immediate; he had gotten her so riled up that when he suddenly entered her she came with a wide eyed, soundless scream. He didn't wait for her to come down from her high though. As quickly as he entered her, he took out all but the tip before plunging in her warmth again. He repeated the process, slowly at first and then beginning to pick up speed as he attacked her chest and neck with his mouth.

By the time, Kurami had regained her ability to breathe; Naruto already had a steady rhythm going that she used her recovered speech to comment on, "YEEEEEEEEEEES! FUCKING YES! Fuck that pussy, baby! It's yours and only yours! Ah ah ah ah ah ahhhhh! Oh! Oh Naru-kun you're in so deep! So gooooo-aaaaah! Oh Kami-sama, I fucking came again!" She didn't need to tell him, he had felt her tighten around him and he himself was nearing his own climax.

Trying to find his own release, he lifted her onto his lap, her legs long since having been wrapped around his waist, making her even tighter than normal. Naruto had never been with another woman before but if he had to guess he'd say Kurami kept herself virgin tight just for him. The vixen highly approved of the new position since it drove his manhood even deeper and made him hit her G-spot every time. "Oh, yeah! Yes! I love this, you're hitting my spot every time, Koibito! My tits feel so good! Keep sucking them like that, squeeze them, bite them, do whatever you want with them, they're yours! I'm all yours!"

"Kurami, I-I'm gonna…." He started but was interrupted by the vixen pushing him onto his back as she rode him like a woman possessed.

"CUM! Do it, baby! Cum inside me, I wanna feel your hot, sticky cum in my womb! I need it so bad!" Was all she said as she continued to impale herself on his length. From then on the only sounds in the room were the rhythmic smacking of wet flesh and against flesh and the moans and groans of the occupants until finally, with a guttural groan, Naruto released his load, setting of Kurami for the final time that night as she threw her head back and went ramrod straight as she screamed.

"I'M CUUUUUUUMMMMMMMIIIIIIINNNNNG! AAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHH!"

And with that she collapsed onto his chest and both taking near gulping breaths of air. Why breathing was necessary in the mindscape was a question whose answer eluded them, but they had stopped caring a long time ago. Once she regained enough breath, Kurami spoke in a completely satisfied tone between gasps. "You're (gasp) a god! (gasp) A Seibetsu no Kami! (God of Sex!)"

He just chuckled, "Not really, I just know how to work you." They both laughed as they felt the darkness of sleep begin to claim them. Kurami's newly released 9 tails made their appearance as they wrapped around the lovers like a furry blanket. Right before the darkness of sleep could take them however, as if reading each other's mind, they looked into their lover's eyes and spoke at the same time.

Aishiteru, watashi no koishii. (I love you, my beloved.)

***Lemon end. Okay, the kids can come back now.***

*The next day, 8:00 a.m. Training Ground 11

We find team 11 gathered in front of the training stumps in the training ground wearing their usual shinobi clothes, though Mikoto also had a ninja-to like Naruto's on her back as well with the handle also over her right shoulder. The ninja-to was nothing special to look at. Just a simple black sheath in with a read handle with 3 black diamonds for decoration, a black pommel and the Uchiha clan symbol for the guard.

Then again a lot of thing in the shinobi world that could kill you didn't look very dangerous.

"Alright guys, are you three ready for your test?"

The two Genin hopefuls and one full Genin (though the other 3 did not know about that) nodded and Mikoto pulled out 2 bells from her pouch.

"Okay, here is your objective, you have until noon to get one of these bells from me, the ones who do pass and become Genin." Said the Uchiha Matriarch while her would-be charges shot her deadpan looks.

It was Guren who asked the question they already had the answer to, "Ah, sensei? Just out of curiosity, what happens if you don't get a bell?"

"Oh, that's simple, you get sent back to the Academy while the rest advance without you."

"Teamwork." Was the deadpan chorus of Team 11.

Mikoto smiled, "I told the Hokage this test was pointless for you guys, but he insisted we do it anyway."

Naruto however had a question, "Hey, Sensei, is this the test that is usually given and, if so, what is the failure rate?"

The question caused Mikoto to blink, having caught her off guard. "Well yes, this is usually the test given by every Jounin-sensei and the failure rate is about 67%" was the ravenette's answer.

"Well, no shit. Teams aren't usually based on relationships but rather the potential to make a balanced work force. This means mostly forcing friends apart and pairing them with people they don't really know most of the time. Then you give them a test were they are essentially told that one of them is gonna be sacrificed and expect them to understand the meaning?" Replied Naruto with a look that said 'Are you stupid.'

"Well, teamwork and camaraderie are some of the most important values for Konoha." Said Mikoto, trying to defend what had been the way of choosing the next generation of ninja for generations.

Nanami chose now to speak. "Yes, they are. But the fact of the matter is, that kind of camaraderie only settles in a seasoned shinobi. You are talking about 13 year olds being willing to sacrifice each other for people they don't know. It won't be a problem with our friends since they will figure it out in a second. But for a regular team, you are basically throwing them out on their asses because of this test."

Mikoto thought about it and so did the Hokage as he watched through his crystal ball. They both couldn't hold back the sweatdrop at their point. The teams should take past relationships into account to make truly efficient team. Something Sarutobi picked up for next year's assignments.

Naruto broke her out of her thoughts, "So since that obviously failed," began the blonde host, a ghost of a smile on his face at the embarrassed face of Mikoto. "How about we just make this a capture exercise? You're a Jounin so it should be enough against 3 Genin."

Now it was Mikoto's turn to deadpan, "Genin, my ass but fine, I can't just pass you or the other Jounin will throw a bitch fit, so here is what we'll do. You three come at me at once and see if you can get both bells. You may be much stronger than Genin but you still don't have any experience so don't get cocky." She said as she pulled out and alarm clock from her weapons pouch set for noon and placed it on one of the training stumps.

They nodded and separated slightly as they got in their stances.

(First fight scene as well, so cut me some slack.)

"Okay, on the count for 3, one… three!" Shouted Mikoto as she rushed at Naruto, almost seeming to materialize in front of him as she sent him flying with a kick he blocked with crossed arms.

Mikoto turned around, unsheathing her ninja-to to block a strike from Guren's Shouton: Suishou Tou (Crystal Release: Jade Crystal Blade). Forming another blade on her spare arm Guren began dual wielding her blade, striking at Mikoto stomach with a fast strike that she expertly blocked after pushing back her other blade. Mikoto retaliated with a swipe at her head that Guren ducked under and countered with 2 simultaneous slashes at her legs that Mikoto jumped back from.

As she landed she was forced to jump dodge a slash from the now returned Naruto as they began a short Kenjutsu bout before she dodged and bone breaking punch from Nanami.

Nanami looked at Mikoto before she blurred form sight with a whisper of "Soru! (Shave!)" Shocked at this change Mikoto jumped over her to avoid a kick that destroyed the chunk of tree that it hit and right into the sights of a waiting Guren and Naruto.

"Shouton: Shuriken Ranbu! (Crystal Release: Shuriken Wild Dance!)"

"Fuuton: Renpuushou (Wind Release: Gale Palm!)"

A quick glance behind her revealed Guren standing with outstretched arms and small crystal shuriken dashing toward her, propelled even faster by the supplementary wind jutsu form Naruto.

Mikoto cursed as she did a few hand seals, "Shit, Doton: Doryuuheki! (Earth Release: Earth-Style Wall!)" she cried as she stomped the ground, a slab of hard earth rose from the ground bearing the brunt of attack but also making her lose sight of her Genin.

As she lowered the earth wall, she saw her opponents had disappeared and walked near the shore of the lake. This may give the enemy a clear sight of her but it awarded her the same when they attacked and would have to get past her to reach the lake.

'They are a lot better than Genin just as I thought. If this keeps up I'm might actually have to activate my Sharingan, the only reason I was able to use that earth wall is because I got the hand seals down to 2 from practice.' Thought Mikoto as she prepared for the next round.

*In the forest

Hiding in the trees surrounding the clearing, we find our 3 Genin planning their next move.

"So how do we do this, guys?" questioned Guren while keeping a close eye on Mikoto.

"We need to create a distraction long enough for one of us to grab the bells. Mikoto is right, even if you two are mid to high-Chuunin level and I am pretty close to a Tokubetsu Jounin in skill, we have no real experience against a seasoned Jounin." Answered Naruto as he tried to come up with a strategy against their Sensei.

"So what's the plan Naruto-kun?" asked Nanami, knowing he almost always had an idea. Though usually his ideas seemed crazy they also usually worked.

Naruto thought for another moment before nodding to himself, "Okay, here is what we'll do…"

*Back in the clearing

Mikoto was standing patiently, awaiting the next attack she knew as coming. 'It should be any moment now. Naruto-kun must have already come up with a plan, now I just have to wait.'

She didn't need to wait long.

From the trees at both sides of the clearing came 4 Naruto, 2 working on another fuuton jutsu and the other 2…

'How the fuck does he have fire on his hands?!' Thought a shocked Mikoto. He had never shown her this!

"Kitsune Nagare! (Fox Stream!)" Cried half of the Naruto's as they shot a virtual flamethrower of blue fire from their hands.

"Fuuton: Shinkuugyoku! (Wind Release: Vacuum Sphere!)" Called of the rest as they shot condensed air bullets over large area.

"Holy shit!" yelled Mikoto as she jumped back and onto the lake. "Suiton: Suijinheki! (Water Release: Water Formation Wall!)" A pillar of water surrounded Mikoto on all sides as she blocked the fire stream and the now flaming spheres also creating a lot of steam.

Not a good idea when one of your Genin can crystallize water.

"Shouton: Kurenai no Kaijitsu! (Crystal release: Crimson Fruit!)" As she heard the yell, she saw her water barrier had been turned to a crystal funnel. Mikoto jumped out when she noticed Nanami in front of her.

"Rankyaku! (Storm Leg!)" Cried Nanami as she kicked out and a blade of wind went flying towards Mikoto. It hit, but just then 'Mikoto' burst into smoke.

They cursed. "Shit, a Kage Bushin! (Shadow Clone!) Everyone get back to back!" Yelled Naruto as the girls rushed to his side and made a triangle formation with their backs to each other to remove blind spots.

Just then Mikoto appeared out of the woods. "Great job, guys! You sure gave my clone a hard time, but now it's my turn." Said Mikoto with a smirk as she weaved hand seals at a quick pace, "Fuuton: Soyokaze no Jutsu! (Wind Release: Zephyr Technique!)"

Wind began to swirl around the clearing and picking up several small leaves and loose grass. Now the Genin knew they were in trouble, this was half of the combo that got Mikoto her moniker in the Bingo Book.

Kawarimi no Megami. (Goddess of Substitution.)

Suddenly, Mikoto appeared in from of Naruto, sword coming in as sideways slash. Naruto had felt her coming with his empathy but only barely managed to block with his own blade. She disappeared, reappearing beside Nanami and lashing out with a kick.

Nanami dodged by making her body go limp, "Kami-e. (Paper Drawing.)"

Mikoto switched again, now attacking Guren who used her Kesshou no Yoroi (Crystal Armor) to block Mikoto's strike before lashing out with another Crystal Blade. Mikoto switched yet again, this time appearing above them as she finished a set of familiar seals, "Katon: Housenka Tsumabeni! (Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Flower Nail Crimson!)" Cried Mikoto as she launched six flaming shuriken that the Genin, whose flames were strengthened by the winds still circling them, forcing them to separate.

*With Nanami

She went after Nanami first, appearing in front other girl and lashing out with a straight punch that Nanami used Kami-e to dodge. Mikoto kept the pressure up, sending punches and kicks at the Hazel eyed girl at increasing speeds until she eventually managed to deck the girl across the face. Nanami took a few steps back but didn't look very affected as Mikoto felt pain in her fist, a look at Nanami show her skin had take a dark black color.

"Kouton: Tekkai. (Steel Release: Iron Mass.)" Calmly intoned Nanami as she stood there unaffected. Mikoto giggled at her. "I had forgotten about your Kekkei Genkai, since you hardly ever use it." Nanami just rushed forward with a cry of "Soru! (Shave!)"

Although this time it was noticeably slower than before, it was still very fast. Dodging to the side Mikoto sent a slash at the metal girl that was blocked by her forearm and repaid with a vicious kick to the ribs that would have broken a few had Mikoto not blocked with her sword. At this Mikoto ducked a punched aimed at her head and swept Nanami's legs out from underneath her.

Showing remarkable flexibility for someone cover in iron Nanami twisted into a handstand and sent a helicopter kick at the Uchiha who dodged it by jumping back into a tree. Standing the hazel eyed girl quickly performed 2 consecutive Rankyaku sending twin blades of wind, each about 3½ feet long in an 'X' pattern at the Uchiha. Mikoto was about to land after having jumped to avoid the flying blades of death when Nanami appeared using Soru beneath her.

"Raiton: Jibashi! (Lightning release: Electromagnetic Murder!) Using her own body as a conductor, Nanami guided the lightning toward the airborne Uchiha. "Oh shit!" Cursed Mikoto and silently thanked Kami-sama for the Suna Nuke-nin (Sand Missing-nin) she fought not that long ago. "Fuuton: Daitoppa! (Wind Release: Great Breakthrough!) She fired the jutsu in mid air using it both to dispel the lightning and launch herself back landing with her back to a tree.

Seeing this and using a quick Soru to reach her target, Nanami right hand shot forward with an extending finger and a yell of "Shigan! (Finger Pistol!)"

Mikoto just barely dodged and Nanami's hand was stuck to the tree. She was about to pull it out when Mikoto decided enough was enough and called out "Kanashibari no Jutsu! (Temporary Paralysis Technique!)

Nanami suddenly felt like she had been tied up in steel ropes. She was about to break out when Mikoto appeared Next to her and forced her to look into her eyes "Sharingan Genjutsu: Inemuri! (Copy Wheel Eye Illusionary Technique: Forced Sleep!)"

With her armor preventing most pain and her hand trapped in the tree, Nanami had no way of breaking the illusion as she passed out, her way down. Mikoto caught her before she hit the ground and set her against the tree. "Whew, that was close. She almost got me with that last one and the Tekkai almost did too, good thing we were made a little tougher than normal. That fighting style of her mother's is dangerous. (***)" And with that 'Mikoto' went up in a cloud of smoke revealing she was a clone all along.

*With Guren

The blue haired girl cursed as she back flipped to avoid a brace of kunai thrown by the clone of the older woman. As she finished her final flip she heard her opponent announce her next move, "Katon: Goukakyuu no Jutsu! (Fire release: Grand Fireball Technique!)"

Guren looked up and sure enough there was the classic giant fireball coming at her. She quickly did some hand seals, "Shouton: Suishou Kyou! (Jade Crystal Mirror!) From Guren's extended hands came a snowflake shaped green crystal that blocked Mikoto's fireball. After that was done Guren did 2 more seals, "Shouton: Suishou Bushin no Jutsu (Crystal Release: Jade Crystal Clone Technique.) 4 replicas of Guren exited the crystal and 2 rushed at their sensei. Mikoto blocked and dodged the several attacks from the crystal blade wielding blunette's as one extra came at her at high speed for a strike that would have beheaded her if she hadn't jumped back.

As she did, Mikoto heard a shout of "Konoha-ryuu: Mikazuki no Mai! (Leaf Style: Dance of the Three Days' Moon!)" and could only think 'Yep. She's Yugao's sister, alright." Lifting her blade up to block, it was years of experience that had her jump to the side instead as two hand came out of the ground were her ankles would have been. "Good, she isn't over reliant on her bloodline."

"Doton: Retsudo Tenshou! (Earth Release: Tearing Earth Turning Palm!) The earth around Mikoto began to spiral in on itself and Mikoto was forced to jump between solid pieces of ground in the on-land whirlpool. Sadly when she got to solid ground, there were the fourth Guren was waiting with crystal spears and needles all aimed at her!

"Surprise, sensei!" Shouted Guren as she launched them all at Mikoto. Left with no choice, lest she be dispelled the clone of the Uchiha Matriarch activated her Sharingan. "You know Guren, these clones of yours are something else." Said Mikoto as she continued to dodge and block the sharp crystals sent her way when she suddenly flickered behind one Guren who had not moved since the clones' creation and gave her a hard hit with the blunt of her sword.

"But if you just hide behind them then you're easy to pi…" was as far as she got before the 'girl' turned into crystal which then jumped at her "What?!" Yelled a surprised Mikoto as the crystal encased her. The remaining Gurens smiled at this.

"Who's hiding? Shouton: Suishou Rou no Jutsu. (Crystal Release: Jade Crystal Prison Technique)" Not being fool enough to assume anything in a ninja fight, she watched her 'prisoner' carefully and sure enough 'Mikoto' was soon revealed to be a log. "Damn it! How is it there is always a log?!"

"Never doubt the Holy Log! Katon: Endan! (Fire release: Flame Bullet!) Came the voice of Mikoto behind her shooting a flaming bullet in her direction. She was about to move when she felt her ankles get grabbed by two hands, knowing she was in trouble she cursed "Shit Suiton: Mizurappa! (Water Release: Violent Water Wave!) Called the crystal wielder as she spat a jet of water at the fire technique.

Unfortunately, she didn't know this particular technique used oil as an accelerant so, forced to put more focus into her own technique, Guren missed the earth clone coming out of the bushes and didn't feel it until she was hit very hard in the back of the head, her 2 other clones having been dispelled silently beforehand. Having needed to drop her Crystal armor to conserve chakra, Guren was unfortunately knocked out by the hard surprise hit.

Having dropped her jutsu when she saw her second clone about to hit the girl, the shadow clone left her beside her teammate and dispelled, informing the original about the recent fight.

*With Naruto and Mikoto

"You know, you guys are way too good to be Genin." Said Mikoto as she was facing off against Naruto. They were currently engaged in yet another bout of Kenjutsu and Mikoto immediately noticed something. 'That's Kushina-chan's Kenjutsu Style.' There could be no mistaking it. The fast wide motions combined with quick powerful hits could only be her best friend's style. As if to prove her right Naruto used one of Kushina's favorite techniques, "Akashi-Ryuu: Makaze no Jutsu (Red Death Style: Devil Storm Technique!)" Jumping back to make a wide swing, Naruto sent fire-chakra laced, hot, sharp winds at Mikoto who used a sealless Shunshin no Jutsu (Body Flicker Technique) to dodge the dangerous attack. When the attack hit a tree, small explosions along with sharp cutting winds destroyed an entire section of the trunk, toppling the tree.

Sheathing her sword, Mikoto flipped through hand seal, "Katon: Housenka no Jutsu! (Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique!)" said the Uchiha launching many small fireballs at the whiskered blonde. Not having enough time to make seals Naruto simply reignited his hands with blue fire and sent a large fireball at the incoming technique. There was a small explosion in the clearing that blinded the combatants momentarily, when the smoke cleared, Mikoto noticed Naruto had disappeared.

'Left, right, no. Not behind or above so that just leaves…' her eyes widened as she jumped back to avoid a devastating uppercut from the blonde who had burst from the ground below her. Apparently, all of the team seemed to know this jutsu but Naruto used it differently. As soon as she landed she was forced to jump back again as another Naruto burst from the ground again. She idly noticed the first Naruto burst into smoke before the second grabbed her in mid-air and showed great coordination as he positioned himself to land in just the right way to set up a powerful throw towards a tree.

When she hit, she burst into smoke and showed a broken log in its placed. "I'm really starting to hate that jutsu." Naruto groaned, before he ducked under a kick to his head from behind. "Most people do after fighting me!" Was the playful response of the raven haired beauty. She sent a punch at his chest which Naruto dodged and pulled on her arm to bring her in for a left elbow shot to the face. Blocking with her other hand she sent a side kick to Naruto's left side which he grabbed and tried to grapple so as to slam her to the ground. Mikoto countered by hopping off her remaining foot and kicking Naruto in the chest, launching him back but not before receiving a hard punch to her left cheek for her troubles.

Using to momentum to roll to his feet the blonde decided to switch tactics and pulled out 4 kunai from his pouch, he also took out 4 seal tags from his bandoleer and wrapped them around the handles. Noticing Mikoto attempting to rush him at high speeds the blonde tossed the four kunai in a square formation and held up a ram seal.

"Fuuinjutsu: Denka Ami! (Sealing Technique: Charge Net!) From the four kunai, lightning emerged and connected the flying knives before forming a net pattern out of lightning and flying at the Uchiha Matriarch. Mikoto could only stare at the approaching net with a look of surprise while thinking 'Well, this is new.' Before being caught by the net and sent toward a tree.

Seeing his target captured, Naruto sent a small but faster Kitsune-bi (Fox fire) blast at the caught Jounin. When the smoke cleared showing a piece of the tree he had blasted apart earlier. Catching mischievousness in his emphatic radar he turn around to catch the twin punches from Mikoto before the Jounin let her arms slack and… kissed his cheek.

Stunned momentarily by the out of the blue show of affection, Naruto missed the look on Mikoto's face before she…

Kicked him in the nuts.

Hard.

And so, like any man who has ever been kicked full strength in the family jewels by a kunoichi, Naruto released a scream at a pitch high enough only dogs or an Inuzuka could hear it before promptly passing out. His last thought before the darkness took him?

'Note to self: Buy a cup!' (****)

Looking down at the blonde in slight regret, Mikoto, rather difficultly moved the blonde to his teammates. Her twitching muscles and the slightly burnt crisscrossing pattern on her clothes showed that she had not been able to substitute fast enough to fully avoid the net and making it a little difficult to move properly. The fact that the blonde weighted a lot more than he looked was not helping matters either.

*Timeskip: 1½ hours

Naruto was awoken by the sounds of an alarm going off, telling him it was noon. Kurami had been pissed as hell when Mikoto kicked him in his man bits saying, "Dammit, I need to function properly and so do you, Baka!" Thankfully, she had healed that part first so he no longer felt any pain anywhere but his pride. As he looked around he was met with the concerned looks of his teammates and the smiling face of Mikoto. He just looked at the ravenette and said, "Cheater."

If anything her smile widened as she pointed to herself and just said, "Ninja." like that explained everything.

And quite honestly it did.

"So do we pass, Sensei?" asked a sitting Nanami.

"Well, even though you weren't able to get the bell I…"

*Ching*

She was cut off by the sound of bells ringing and, sure enough, there they were. Two little silver bells in the hands of a smiling Guren and Nanami as they sat next to a, calm as always, Naruto. Mikoto reached for her waist to check if they were fakes only to find the bells had indeed been taken.

"B-But, How?!" Asked a dumbstruck Mikoto, eyes wide in surprise. Here, Naruto actually smirked before he snapped his fingers and the air next to Mikoto seems to shift before revealing another smirking Naruto next to her before dispelling signaling a shadow clone.

"Genjutsu?! Since when can Jinchuuriki use Genjutsu?! And when did you cast it?!" Naruto sighed as he saw an opportunity to get what he wanted to talk about out of the way.

"To answer the when it was during the time you were in the middle of our triangle formation, as for how, that is actually part of something I want to talk with you girls about but first, do we pass or not?"

"Huh, oh right. *ahem* Congratulations guys, we are now officially Team 11! We start missions tomorrow." Said a gently smiling Mikoto as the girls whooped and proceed to glomp Naruto who also had a small smile.

"Now with that out of the way, how did you cast a Genjutsu, Naruto-kun? And that thing with the fire for that matter." Asked a very curious Mikoto. She needed to know, Jinchuuriki using Genjutsu was unheard of except for the Sanbi (Three Tails) host, and that was more of a hallucinogenic gas than an illusionary technique. And the fire thing was both awesome and terrifying at once.

"*Sigh* It might be better if I just show you instead. Girls, come here." Said Naruto has he pulled Nanabi and Guren closer causing the former to grin, the latter to blush and Mikoto to get jealous. Until Naruto spoke next, "Mikoto, get on my lap." Not even thinking about why he asked that, the Uchiha beauty grinned and hopped in the blonde's lap, relishing in the jealous looks on the girls faces at her better seat.

"Not that I don't like the arrangement, but why are we doing this Naruto-kun." Asked a confused Nanami. Naruto was never this affectionate.

The whiskered teen answered, "I think it's time you meet someone important to all of us." And with that all four were pulled into the mindscape.

END

(*) It is a D-RANK ninjutsu, I truly do not know why this was not part of the graduation exam.

(**) He is Naruto Uzumaki and this is a harem fic. This automatically means he has a Ph.D (Pretty huge Dick)

(***) Yes I gave her Kouton and Rokushiki from One Piece. The reason why is that I didn't want her to be the only member of the team without a Kekkei Genkai. She will not be over reliant on her bloodline but she will bust it out if necessary. As for the Rokushiki, it is a badass fighting style and fuck anyone who says otherwise. I always wanted to use it for a fic so here we are.

(****) I dare you to tell me this would not end any fight in history. Go ahead, I DARE you.

*A/N Well that does it for this chapter, sorry for the wait but my muse came to me in pieces. I actually did the whole fight scene today. I am sorry if it is not up to the standards of some of you guys out there. Same for the lemon. I am not AlphaDelta1001 or Kenchi618 nor am I The Lemon Sage or HunterBeserkerWolf and quite frankly I do not believe I will ever be able to write a fight scene or a lemon as good as them. I will simply try my best.

Well that is all I have to say. Please leave a review and I will see you guys next time. A little note, do not expect anything soon, I have finals until the 14th. Ja ne!
