Hey, don't expect these too regularly because I am trying to finish two of my other stories. Alright I have Mortal Kombat Armageddon, which is the first Mortal Kombat game I got my hands on since the cartoon was out (and for the younger generation: yes there was a cartoon about Mortal Kombat.) so you get my drift. I was thinking about putting Naruto into the Armageddon tournament. For those of you who haven't played the Armageddon game it's supposed to be the end of the Mortal Kombat fighting because the fighters were destroying the realms. So the gods or someone made a pyramid and put a fire spirit (Looks like a fire demon) at the top and the last one standing in the tournament had to fight him. He is hard to beat and I only beat him with a walking corps formerly known as Liu Kang. He got the power of a god I guess but I'm not sure if all of them do. In the game you get to use all 60 characters from the Mortal Kombat world. This is going to be fun thinking up the fights for the tournament.

Naruto stood there wearing his Ninja head band proudly. He had passed his ninja exams without any trouble and even got to beat up a traitor. Life was good. He was walking into his class room one last time. Serenity had gone home after a few years of training him, but not before knocking him out of the Emo phase of his life. He and Hinata had become close friends since then. When her mother died he had sat up all night holding the crying girl. Thanks to him she was less shy and didn't stutter. He was also on friendly terms with her sister Hanabi. Sakura wasn't quite a friend but they were closer than acquaintances.

Naruto sat down near Hinata and she began talking to him about everything under the sun. He smiled mostly because he loved this side of her. She would talk to him like there was no tomorrow and wouldn't stop until class started. She could talk for hours and some of the things she knew where astonishing to him. But that's not our story today.

"Alright class, today you will be assigned to your three man teams." Said Iruka as class started. Naruto didn't really listen till he heard his name called. "Team seven: Uzumaki Naruto, Haruno Sakura, Uchiha Sasuke." Naruto groaned at that. Why did the 'Emo King' himself have to be on his team? It was a good thing that Sasuke didn't remember that it was Naruto that killed his family. He was lead to believe that a nuke Nin' had done it. He stopped paying attention after that, and laid his head down on the table. This was going to be a long day.

He waited with his team after all the others had gone for about an hour and a half until a man lazily walked into the room. The man was about six foot tall maybe taller, had grey gravity defining hair, a small mask on his face, and had a standard jounin outfit on. The man looked up from his orange book. Sakura was about to scream something when Naruto bobbed her on the head. "No yelling, Sakura-chan"

"Sorry Naruto-sensei" She said as she usually did. Naruto had trained her in the physical aspects of being a Shinobi. He had even taught her one of his Taijutsu styles, that he had found in a scroll he got from the old man. She was a lot stronger than any other girl in the class, aside from Hinata, and she worked well with Naruto.

Naruto got up and looked at the masked ninja. "Your late" He said in a lazy voice.

"My first assumption about you is that you all suck." The masked man said.

"You know what they say about assumptions, they make an ass out of you and me" Naruto said with a smile.

The masked man looked at Naruto questionably then said "Meet me on the roof" then disappeared in smoke and leaves. Naruto did the same only with snow instead of leaves, leaving king Emo and Sakura to walk up the stairs.

When they arrived Naruto was there waiting for them. The man motioned for them to sit down. "Let's start with introductions. My name is Kakashi, I like many things, I don't like many things and my dreams are none of your business." He said then pointed to Sakura, "your turn."

"My name is Sakura, I like…" She thought for a minute "training with Naruto-sensei, I hate Ino-pig, and my dream is to be the strongest koniochi ever, and" She looked at Sasuke and blushed.

'At least she is trying' thought Kakashi. He pointed to Sasuke "You next duck ass"

Sasuke glared at him for a second, "My name is Sasuke, I don't really have likes, dislikes, too many to count, and I don't have a dream per say, more like an ambition, to kill a certain man."

'An Emo avenger, GREAT.' Kakashi thought. 'I think he needs more help then the others' He looked he looked at Naruto "you're up Blondie"

Naruto looked at him passively "My name is Naruto, I like things, I hate things, and I have dreams." He said being just as cryptic as his Sensei.

'That got me nothing' Kakashi thought, "Alright, I will be giving out your Gennin exam tomorrow at eight in the morning."

"Kakashi-sensei, we already took our Gennin exam." Sakura said.

"He needs to test our teamwork." Naruto said. Kakashi began to stare at him in disbelief. The kid had already figured out what the test was about before he even explained the rules. No one had figured it out this fast.

Sub-Zero was meditating on what Serenity had told him when she had gotten back to the temple. She had told him that her charge was stronger than her. That he was quickly becoming as strong as him. Naruto might have surpassed him in pure power by now. It was scary to hear how someone so young could be so powerful. Sub-Zero sighed as he stood up. She had also told him that Naruto was easily a Jounin in strength, the Hokage had tried to field promote him before she had left but he wanted to stay with the people his own age, so he declined the offer. Naruto was an enigma that was for sure.

xXXx

Kakashi showed up in the old mans office later that day.

"They pass" he said.

"But the test isn't till tomorrow." Sarutobi said.

"One of them already figured out the meaning of the test and told the others in front of me" answered Kakashi. "It was Naruto."

"I should have known. He is very good at figuring things out."

"Should I test their strengths then?"

"I know what Naruto's strengths are. He is strong in a lot Taijutsu styles and even has taught the young Haruno girl a little bit. He is also extremely good in Ninjutsu do to his blood line. The only problem he has is with Genjutsu. He can't use one to save his life, but he can dispel them pretty good. The only problem is that when he does he dispels all Genjutsu in the area, friend or foe."

"Then why isn't he a Chunin yet?"

"He wouldn't take the field promotions I have tried to give him. I tried to get him to go to Chunin and Jounin many times but he wouldn't hear of it. He didn't want special treatment because he was stronger than the others." The old man said.

"We are a ninja village, that's what we do." Kakashi said, and the aged Hokage glared at him. "Kidding, kidding"

(I could stop here and let my adoring fans have what they want, but I like making you squirm.)

Naruto had been sneezing all the way to the training ground. He was scheduled to meet Hinata and Hanabi to train them today. He smiled as he saw them. They were sitting on a log waiting for him.

"Naruto-sama, what took you so long?" Hanabi asked.

"How many times do I have to tell you not to call me that?" He shot back. "My Jounin sensei was way late and made us do these stupid introductions."

Hanabi pouted at him. "Now look at what you did Naruto-sama." Hinata said to him.

"Not you too Hinata-chan." He said and hung his head in defeat. He then told them to stretch out so they did. He didn't need them pulling something and having the Hyuuga head coming after his ass for hurting both of his daughters. Naruto had them work on advanced hand to hand combat. They were at about Chunin level in that, Hinata being a high Chunin and Hanabi being a low Chunin. He hadn't, nor will ever teach them Ninjutsu because his demanded way too much chakra. They would have been able to shoot two of them out at the most. He also stayed away from using Ninjutsu himself, besides his ice, because of the damage it did. He was prepared to fight and hurt someone but he wasn't prepared to kill them yet. He had made most of the Jutsu he knew himself, and with the fact that they used so much chakra and some were seal-less they were hard to copy even with the Sharingon.

He watched them from the side of the training field. They were currently in a spar and with there weights on, they were at the same level. With there weights off it would be clear from the start that Hinata would win. Hinata was currently wearing fifty pounds on each limb apposed to Hanabi's forty. Though Hinata was trained in more Taijutsu style Naruto had made it so they had to use the same style and only stick to one. Hanabi had chosen one that they had been training in together and knew that Hinata was at her level in it.

Naruto got up and told them to stop. He then corrected there forms a little then they went back at it. The spar ended in a draw as the sun was setting. Hinata put her sister on her back and they both waved back at him as they walked off home. Naruto smiled at them and turned around to leave just in time to hear a surround sound "Bye, Naruto-sama." He sighed as he walked home.

It had been a couple weeks since the Gennin exam and all they had been doing was D-rank missions. Naruto hadn't complained but that didn't mean the others hadn't.

"Alright you wrinkled old bas…" Sasuke was suddenly silenced as his head was currently going though the floor.

"I think what my teammate is trying to say is that we need a harder mission." Naruto said. That made Iruka go into a rant about how the mission system worked. As no one was listening but Sakura, the Hokage decided to give into the demand.

"Well we have a C-Rank mission to wave. It's an escort mission. You will be escorting a bridge builder back home." The Hokage said as he was going through the paper work. He grabbed the scroll and gave it to Kakashi.

"That will do nicely, old man." said Naruto.

Sarutobi hit a button on his desk and said "Send him in"

A drunken man came though the door and looked at the Shinobi. "These are the 'Ninja' that are supposed to protect me. They look like a bunch of idiots to me, especially the one in the over coat." Naruto had changed his style from his orange jumpsuit to an orange t-shirt, blue jeans, and blue leather over coat. "And look at that one with the duck ass hair cut." Sasuke was seething and was about to attack the client when he found himself on his face again. Naruto was smirking.

"They will do fine besides you got Naruto on your side." Sarutobi said.

"You mean me right" Kakashi interjected.

"Yes of course, you too."

"Fine, fine. Just don't let me get killed." Tazuna said as he walked out.

"Your mission starts in a half hour. Pack enough for a few weeks and meet at the north gate." Sarutobi said. "And Kakashi if you're late I'll tell Rin where your book stash is." Kakashi visibly paled.

xXXx

Naruto and Tazuna were waiting for the rest of the team at the north gate like told.

"So you know anyone named Gato?" Naruto asked the bridge builder.

Tazuna looked at Naruto surprised. "N-never h-heard of him" He said hoping Naruto wouldn't tell the others.

"Oh then what I heard on the News, about him being in Wave was untrue"

"M-maybe"

"Alright then"

Just then Kakashi and the rest of the team got there. Naruto smiled as they set off into what he was sure was going to be a great adventure.

xXXx

That was a lot more fun than I thought it would be. Now this could turn into a Naruto harem or I could just go with no parings, I don't know yet. Well tell me what you think and I'll get back to you. I don't know how much I will be updating this. It could be every few days because I had fun with this or it could be every year like it has been because I'm easily distracted. Oh well, R&R.
