Koharu: well the choice has been made Ino and Sasuke! Congratulation your Naruto's teammates! I have also decided Ten-Ten will be dropped from the poll, I like Ten-Ten but I don't know how to develop her as a character in my fic, she belongs with Neji, or Lee, and as I've written more into this fic, I have seen Ten-Ten more of an older sister to Naruto then a boyfriend, sorry NaruTen fans. So now the race between Temari and Ino are going strong!

Naruto talking to Aidan
Aidan talking to Naruto
Dragon's Claws
Throbbing hearts, broken souls
Naruto smiled once more as rubbed his forehead protector, last night seemed so crazy; right after Iruka took him out to ramen, Lee-aniki, and Gai-sensei had thrown him a congratulations party, moving his hand he felt the new weapons Ten-ten-ane gave him strapped to his sides, a pair of Tonfa, Ten-ten-ane had been training him how to use them for years, he had started with wooden one, these however, where metal and had elegant curved blades. Looking forward, he stared at the academy knowing he would never enter again after this, starting with one last step into the building.
Ino looked at herself in the mirror and smiled, she was the girl with a plain. Checking her hair one more time, she walked out of her families flower shop. Upon entering the street she spotted Sakura, Ino trotted over "Hey Big forehead!" Sakura sneered at the nickname; the pink haired kunoichi had not forgiven the blond haired girl for abandoning her and going to Naruto. Sakura glared at Ino "What do you want Ino-pig? Shouldn't you be with that loser Naruto?" Ino glared right back "At least he shows more emotions than that emo kid Sasuke! Naruto will be Hokage someday, and I'll be his wife!" Smirking mincingly Ino continued on "When that happens I'll have him outlaw big fore headed freaks! In other words Sakura bye-bye!" the two continued too glare at each other as they marched toward the academy for orientation.
Sarutobi, normally he was very patience with people, today however he really wished that when called certain people would not be late. Turning he looked out the window and sighed, "Hatake Kakashi, you're a half-hour late…Where were you?" turning again, the old man stood in front of a younger, man with sliver hair that seemed to deny gravity, three-fourth of his face was covered, the only thing you could see was on visible gray eyes. The young man was currently reading a tiny orange book, a blush across his face, without looking up he spoke "Sorry about that, I was currently chasing a fox riding a dragon" Kakashi closed his book and looked up; Sarutobi frowned "it your own fault there, you've been following him ever since you found out he started living with Gai-Sensei; you've also been secretly influencing his taste in clothing, which we're all thankful for, but that's besides the point Kakashi, you could have taken him in anytime you chose to ignore him" Kakashi didn't say anything, he turned his head away not able to face the Hokage, and the truth "I failed his father, I said I'd take care of Naruto; but every time I looked at him…I saw my teacher in his eyes and his smile…" Sarutobi briefly wondered if this was the right thing to do, "Kakashi I might be out of my mind to do this…I'm assigning Naruto too team…"
Naruto sat down, in the front "hey dobe ryu! This orientation is for graduates only!" looking over he spotted Kiba and Akamaru; Naruto pointed to his forehead protector "What the hell do you call this! I'm a ninja now!" Kiba snorted and shrugged "whatever loser" Naruto shrugged it off not really caring if anyone called him names anymore.
Naruto pulled out a new book that he had received yesterday evening from a mysterious someone, Naruto looked at the cover "Dragon's of the Ancient World and there impact on today's life," he had already finished chapter one last night, who ever got him this book, was a complete moron, the book was interesting, but it was all nothing but fiction.
Hinata Hyuuga, looked over at Naruto and blushed, she noticed he was reading the book she had secretly given him. Twiddling her fingers, she remembered the day she had seen how truly wonderful Naruto was, not only was he spirited, and determined, he also had more courage then she did, Naruto was her preverbal knight in shinning armor, saving her from that horrible dragon.
FASH BACK
Hinata remembered it well; it happened three years ago, she had gone for a walk in the forest, to enjoy the mid-afternoon air of summer. Father had once again been very rouge with their training, so she had many bruises on her face; yawning wearily she continued to walk, a sound from the trees made her look up, she saw the leaves start too rustle, activating her Byakugan what she saw made her scream, Hinata couldn't see the vital point of what ever was up their all she could see was the outline of a great beast falling toward the ground.
Backing away, her eyes followed the creature as it landed in front of her, Hinata screamed. The creature looked at her, the carcass of some animal hanging from it jaw; blood dripping from the freshly kill pray, Hinata's eyes into the back of her head and let darkness consume her.
When she woke up, she was staring not at a monster but at blonde haired, blue eyed boy, worry shinning in his eyes "Hey, you're Hinata from my class right? Are you ok?" Hinata blushed and sat up, looking around she noticed she was in most likely his room, there where posters of Dragons every where; She looked back to Naruto "I…I'm f…fine Na…Naruto-kun" Naruto smiled, it was then Hinata knew it was this boy who saved her from that horrible monster.
END OF FLASH BACK
Naruto looked up, he felt someone watching him, and he looked around; but saw no one looking his way. Sudden yelling from outside the door got his attention, turning he frowned when he saw the cause, Ino and Sakura fighting their way to get in the room…again, after the two pushed their way through, Ino bounded over to Naruto, "Hello Naru-Chan! How my favorite future Hokage? You missed our date yesterday! So I hope you know I'm going to hunt you down and drag you to that new sushi place!" Naruto sighed knowing it was impossible to out run Ino, having tried it before only to be caught in rather undignified way.
FLASH BACK TWO WEEKS AGO
Naruto was smiling, for years he had been able to outrun Ino, right now he was feeling pretty proud, he had run at least three miles away, thanks to Gai-sensei's training he was able to run just as fast, maybe a little slower the Lee-aniki. Looking around he hopped there was some kind of food stand he could eat at before going home to train with Gai-sensei and Lee, taking a step forward, his world was suddenly turned upside down; he sadly had stepped into a trap, and now was dangling helplessly in a tree.
He heard someone laughing turning around as best he could, he saw Ino standing their, a menacing smile on he face "Now, now Naru-chan, are you trying to run from our date? I'm tired of Ichiruka's Ramen today were going to eat BBQ" The blond girl leapt into the tree and grabbed the rope, pulling out a kunai Ino cut the part she wasn't holding and put Naruto gently onto the ground, jumping down she proceeded to drag the poor boy off "Ino I have to go train with Gai-sensei!" Ino chuckled "He knows you'll be late, I talked to him and told him you and I were dating, he said it was ok and started ranting about the flames of youth" Naruto cried "Aidan! What do I do? Ino is convinced we're dating! She frightens me more then Gai-sensei's good guy pose #45," Aidan only chuckled, "Might be a faze she going through, go with the flow, maybe it will pass," Naruto sighed again. Ino looked over to Naruto and smiled "You need to eat other thing then ramen and red bean paste, when we get to the restaurant you'll eat ALL of your veggies; so, when you become Hokage you won't be a midget!" laughing Ino continued to drag him off.
END OF FLASH BACK
Naruto shuddered at the memory and humiliation of what happened that day, Ino dragged him in, ordered for him, made him eat those horrible vegetables then, and then made him pay for the both of them. He prayed to any deity that he wasn't on a team with her; he'd take anyone but her, now that Naruto thought about he really did wonder whom he'd be working.
Ino spotted her target, she was going to be in Naruto group no matter what it takes, forming the hand signs as she faced her target "sorry Iruka-sensei but this has to be done, in the name of Love!" in a flash Ino's body went limp as she fell unto the desk.
Iruka's body gave a jerk forward, smile 'he' looked over the list and frowned "Team 7 Sasuke, Sakura, and Naruto…This won't do," mumbling to herself, 'he' looked for Ino's name "they were going to put me with Shikamaru, and Choji? I think not, Sorry team 10 your getting Sakura" picking up a pencil 'he' made a few changes to the roster and gave an evil chuckle "Sakura, letting you on a team with Naruto, heaven only knows how horrible you'd be too him, also if I'm on the same team…he might just reveal Aidan to me!"
INO VISON
She could see it now, it will be a clear blue day, and Sasuke will probably be off somewhere being all emoish, and pouting abut who knows what; sighing as she looks into Naruto's deep azure blue eyes, and he looks into her, "Ino, I have to tell you something, I've been hiding something from everybody…Ino my dearest love and future Ms. Hokage, I would like you to…no insist you meet…IRUKA-SENSEI STOP DAY DREAMING!"
END INO VISION
Ino, in Iruka's body, looked up quickly to see everybody was already their and waiting to be assigned to there teams, smiling she picked up the list and began calling out the teams, from team one to six till finally "Team Seven, Uzumaki Naruto, Ino Yamanaka…"
Naruto practically screamed "WHAT! I'm on a team with Ino?" Iruka just smiled, nodded, and continued "and Uchiha Sasuke your Jonin sensei is Hatake Kakashi. Team Eight, Inuzuka Kiba, Hyuuga Hinata, and Aburame Shino, your Jonin Sensei is Kurenai, and finally Team Nine Haruno Sakura, Nara Shikamaru, and Akimichi Choji, your Jonin Asuma"
Ino returned to her body, while Iruka looked momentarily confused about something, "um…go and get too know your teammate…I'm going to find some Advil…I have a migraine" saying that the poor chunin left the room.
When he left the room came to life, Ino ran over to Naruto and hugged him "Oh Naru-chan its destiny! Let's go on that date now!" as she started dragging him to the door Naruto spoke up "er...um…shouldn't we invite Sasuke? He is on our team!" Naruto prayed Ino would say yes being alone with her scared him more then ever "Aidan! I'm on a team with Ino-chan! Now she wants to go on another date! I don't have the money for this!" Naruto heard the dragon sigh "Just tell her your broke and offer her to go on a picnic it will save you money and medical bills…again" Naruto looked at Ino; who right now, was giving him the evil eye "Invite Sasuke! Are you crazy he is an emo-kid! He a stereo-typical pretty boy, you on the other hand are such a sweetie for even thinking about inviting the brooding bastard, he maybe a genius but he so cold to everyone, he's like a human ice cube" Ino smiling at Naruto, as she cupped the side of his face "Now let's go eat, your buying!" Naruto gulped knowing what he was going to say next would probably either ensure his death, or make Ino strangle him in her patient 'Ino super bear hug' but Naruto knew he had no chose "Ino, I'm broke how about we…'sigh' go on a picnic" he was met with silence, looking up Naruto faced the sight he dreaded most, a very happyIno-chan, the next thing he knew was he was gasping for air, his face becoming very blue "oh Naru-chan your such a romantic! I'm go home toa prepare a wonderful lunch, we have at least two hours before we met our Jonin-sensei!" Ino let go and ran off home.
Hinata was devastated, she didn't get on the same team as Naruto, and instead he was on a team with Ino the only other girl besides herself that saw how great Naruto was. Hinata felt tears well-up in her eyes; Ino, unlike her was more aggressive, and she also wanted Naruto, water ran down her face "how can I compete with Ino?" activating her bloodline limit she watched Naruto from behind her
Sasuke peaked around the corner and spotted Hinata; growling softly, it wasn't fair! Hinata was everything he could ask for in a girl, shy, clam, silent, and beautiful; blushing, Sasuke shook his head erasing those thoughts from his mind, as much as he wanted to go out with the shy girl, he had to concentrate on getting stronger…he had to…for revenge.
Ino hummed happily as chopped some fruit, everything was going her way; Naruto, finally was beginning to come around and start suggesting romantic outings! It all seemed perfect, once Naruto took one bite of her lovingly made home cooked meal, he'll swear his endless love for her in seconds!
INO VISION
They sat under the old weeping willow that stood right next to the glimmering pound, she snuggled into Naruto's chest and sighed as he wrapped his arms around her "Ino…The food you made was absolutely wonderful," tear welled in his eyes "My whole life no one has ever cared for me as much as you had, Ino…I…this is going to sound really cheesy; however, I can't deny it anymore!" Taking Ino's hands in his own Naruto looked deep into the Kunoichi's eyes "Ino I love you, and when I become Hokage I want you as my wife" Ino leaned forward inches away from his lips…"INO YAMANAKA WHAT ARE YOU DOING?"
END INO VISON
Snapping awake, Ino turned around and confronted her mother "I'm making a romantic picnic lunch for Naruto! As soon a he takes a bite he'll confess his…" Ms. Yamanaka interrupted her "That his stomach hurts! Remember the last time you cooked? Your poor father couldn't move for week!"
Ms. Yamanaka unlike most of the other villagers didn't mind Naruto; in fact, she encouraged Ino to pursue him. Smiling softly she walked over to her daughter and picked up a knife "Lets get started you only have one and a half hour left before meeting you Jonin-sensei" Ino smiled at her mother, and together they began to prepare cook.
Naruto was sleeping, his head was on the desk, and drool was pooling around him. Two shadows loomed over him, "So he is the one eh?" a feminine voice asked her companion "Yes…ever since the elders found him they have been sending people to monitor his progress...soon we will have to reveal our selves to him, his limit will awaken soon!" The other replied obviously male from his voice; just as the two appeared, they vanished.
By the time noon had come, Ino had stuffed Naruto full to the bursting; Sasuke had just watched the two eat with amusement. They had waited long passed the two hour deadline to meet their Jonin-sensei, "God damn it! He four fucking hours late!" Ino growled in irritation, Naruto had fallen asleep while reading, Sasuke was Sasuke; smirking sinisterly Ino walked next to Naruto "oh Naru-chan is so cute when his sleeping…to bad he'll miss this" running her fingers threw his hair, and giggled as he tried to snuggle closer to the warmth of it, she made her way over to the chalk board; picking up an eraser, she set up her trap, placing said eraser over the door entrance, Sasuke snorted "Like an elite ninja is going to fall for that" Ino ignored him and stood back to admire her handy work.
The door slowly slide open, Ino watched with an evil gleam in her eyes, a messy mop of silver hair entered the class room, the eraser fall unto the poor guy, as white powder made his silver hair white; Ino laughed at her joke, Sasuke raised a suspicious eyebrow, Naruto woke up from hearing Ino's laughter, The Jonin closed his visible eye and placed a hand under his chin to look as if he was thinking "Given by my first impression of all of you…how should I put this…I hate you all," The three genins frowned at this, "Meet me on the roof," with that said the Jonin disappeared in a poof of smoke, "I so want to learn how to do that" Naruto said and looked to Ino "so what happened when I was napping?" Ino doing the usual grabbed Naruto and proceeded to drag him to the roof and told him of her prank.
When the three reached the roof top, they saw their sensei waiting; sitting down in front of him, the silver haired man began to talk "Ok first things first, introductions, tell me your like, dislikes, hobbies, and maybe dreams for the future…I guess I'll go first to show you how its done…" pausing he looked at the genins and continued "My name is Hatake Kakashi, I like a lot of thing, I dislike...hmm things, my dream for the future…I don't feel like telling you" the three genin frowned again "All we learned was his name" complained Ino, Naruto sighed again, he knew Kakashi all right, he was supposed to be Gai-sensei's rival of shorts.
Kakashi turned to Ino "ok blondie number one tell us about your self," Ino smiled "ok Kakashi-sensei my name is Yamanaka Ino, I like working in my parents flower shop, Naru-chan, reading about stuff, my hobbies are shopping, my dream for the future is marry Naruto when he becomes Hokage and outlaw Sakura's big forehead!"
Kakashi sweated at this unusual girl "strange girl…at least she honest; however, she seems more interested Naruto then becoming a Ninja" sighing at the thought the Jonin turned to Naruto "ok blondie number two"
Naruto felt like hiding after what Ino said, looking at this other teammate Sasuke and then the Jonin he decided to just get this over with, "I'm Uzumaki Naruto, I like to read about Dragons, practice Taijutsu with Lee-aniki, and Gai-sensei, eat ramen, and water plants" Naruto felt like punching himself after saying that; turning toward Ino, to his horror he saw her eyes light up like a Christmas tree, he continued "I really dislike, people who judge others, the three minute wait for ramen, fangirls, and perverts. My hobbies are, trying new types of ramen, learning new moves from Gai-sensei, gardening, and playing pranks, my dream for the future is to become the greatest Hokage of them all" after he finished Ino latched unto him "Naru-chan we have sooo much in common!"
Kakashi felt sorry for the boy, it wasn't his fault he liked those thing, "Ok from the look on his face his regretting ever mentioning all those things he liked, he kind of a loud mouth" Kakashi then faced Sasuke "Ok last but not least"
Sasuke sighed "I'm Uchiha Sasuke, I don't like or dislike many thing, my hobbies are none of your business, I don't have a dream, because dreams don't come true, I do have an ambition, I want to kill a certain man,"
Kakashi rubbed his chin, "so the boys an avenger I should have seen that one coming" smiling threw his mask he spoke again "ok tomorrow will meet at 5:00 at training ground seven for a survival test oh and don't eat breakfast or you'll throw-up" before anyone could say anything he once more disappeared in a cloud of smoke.
