The Bell Test

-Previously on Chapter 4-

"Nope. You're a Kitsune now, and always will be." the fox replied.

"You were just lucky dobe." Sasuke said as he walked in the room.

"I wasn't lucky. Don't underestimate me." Naruto said, as he suddenly disappeared and reappeared in front of the Uchiha.

"How did that dobe get so strong?" Sasuke mused, "If I can barely beat him, then I need to get stronger to beat Itachi."

"Team 7 will consist of Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and Hinata Hyuuga. Your Jounin Sensei will be Kakashi Hatake." Iruka said.

-Beginning of Chapter 5-

"Meet me on the roof top in 5 minutes." Kakashi told his team, ignoring Naruto's remark and disappeared in a swirl of wind and leaves.

"Well he seems nice," Naruto joked, "Well, see you guys up there." Naruto disappeared in a swirl of red wind. Hinata smiled at Naruto's antic and walked out of the room.

"How does he know how to do that?" Sasuke wondered as he followed Hinata out of the room, "Even I, an Uchiha, can't do that."

-Rooftop-

Kakashi leaned against the railing on the ceiling, waiting for his new students to arrive. When Kakashi entered the room, the one with the brightest hair caught his attention.

"He looks exactly like sensei, except his eyes." Kakashi pondered. Kakashi was interrupted by his thoughts, when a sudden gust of red wind appeared, showing Naruto.

"Hiya Kakashi-Sensei." Naruto greeted as he sat down on the steps, waiting for his teammates.

"For the dead last knowing the Shunshin (Body Flicker), then I wonder about the skills of the rookie of the year." Kakashi thought. Kakashi stared at Naruto for a few moments, analyzing him. Naruto felt the stare Kakashi was giving him and started to become nervous.

"W-What is it Sensei?" Naruto muttered.

"Nothing," Kakashi replied, "You just remind me of my old Sensei."

"Well if your Sensei was the Yondaime, then I got that a lot." Naruto mumbled. A few seconds later, his two teammates entered the rooftop and sat by Naruto.

"Well now that everyone is here," Kakashi said while closing his book, "Let's introduce each other. Your name, hobbies, likes, dislikes, and dreams."

"Why don't you go first Sensei?" Naruto asked, "Like an example."

"Alright. My name is Hatake Kakashi. I don't really have much hobbies, I like certain stuff, I don't feel like telling you my dislikes and my dreams."

"We only learned your name." Team 7 all thought.

"Let's start with you blondie." Kakashi pointed to Naruto.

"Alright! My name is Uzumaki Naruto. My hobbies are training and watering plants. I like training and the friends that I have. I dislike the time it takes to cook instant ramen and I hate people that think they are the best just by their name," Naruto said as he glared at Sasuke, "My dream is to become a Hokage better than the past! Then the villagers will start treating me with respect."

"Uzumaki... Naruto..," Kakashi thought, "Could he be the kid? He does look like Sensei, his last name is Uzumaki. It is possible. I gotta ask the Hokage about this."

"You're next Hyuuga." Kakashi said.

"My n-name is Hinata H-Hyuuga. My h-hobbies are pressing f-flowers. I l-like to t-train and m-my dislikes a-are people w-who a-are bullies. My d-dream is t-to b-become the leader o-of the Hyuuga C-Clan and c-change t-the way t-they run i-it." Hinata managed to tell them.

"Uchiha." Kakashi said.

"I'm Uchiha Sasuke. My hobbies are training to get stronger. I have lots of dislikes and no likes in particular. My dream is more like an ambition. I want to restore my clan and kill a certain person. " The Uchiha said coldly.

"This sure is an interesting bunch." Kakashi thought, "Meet me in Training Ground 3 at 8:00 tomorrow. Don't eat breakfast or else you will regret it." Kakashi stated as he disappeared in a puff of smoke.

"He doesn't seem very fun," Naruto grumbled and sat up and stretched, "I will see you guys tomorrow." Naruto vanished in red wind.

-Kakashi-

Kakashi walked up the stairs to the Hokage Mansion, going to ask the Hokage questions that needed to be answered. When Naruto said that he was an Uzumaki, Kakashi knew that it had to have some sort of connection to Kushina Uzumaki, his Sensei's wife.

Kakashi knocked on the the Hokage's office door and waited for a response.

"Come on in." the Hokage said as he put one of the papers in the 'done' pile. Kakashi entered the door and greeted the Hokage.

"Hello Hokage-Sama." Kakashi said with a bow.

"What is it that you need Kakashi?" Sarutobi asked, already knowing what it's about.

"Uzumaki Naruto, my student, could he be related to Uzumaki Kushina?" Kakashi asked, getting straight to the point.

Sarutobi sighed. He knew that Kakashi would ask questions when he knew about Naruto. He completely understood why he was asking these questions since Minato was the closest thing that Kakashi had before he died. Sarutobi had to think about the answer. If he told that Naruto was related to Kushina and Minato, then Kakashi would throw a fit about why he didn't tell him. But if he told him no, then Kakashi would still resent Naruto thinking that he is the Kyuubi.

"Yes, Naruto is Minato's and Kushina's son." Sarutobi admitted.

Hearing that, Kakashi slammed his fist on the Hokage's desk, "Why didn't you tell me? He was my Sensei!" Kakashi quietly yelled.

"I feared that you already had enough on your mind by Minato's death, and I thought that Naruto would be to much for you to handle since he resembles Minato." Sarutobi told him calmly.

Kakashi clenched his fist and sighed. He could see the reason why the Sandaime didn't tell him. It was true that Minato's death affected him a lot. Knowing that Naruto was his Sensei's son would have affected him even more since Naruto looked liked Minato.

Kakashi got out his book and resumed his normal calm attitude, "Thank you. I shall go. I have a Genin Team to fail." Kakashi stated as he walked out the door.

Sarutobi sighed. Every ninja knew about Kakashi's attitude towards the Genin. He failed every team that he came across. Naruto would be his 6th team that Kakashi would come across and the old man hoped that Naruto's team would actually be the one that Kakashi would actually pass and help the cyclops change his way.

-Next Day Later-

Naruto woke up groggily and crawled out of the bed. He looked around to find the source that woke him up, and he glared at his alarm clock. Naruto slowly stood up, and walked to the bathroom to get ready.

"Hey Sensei, can I use whatever this thing is today?" Naruto asked as he pointed to the seal on his wrist.

"If you have to fight that cyclops, then yes." Kurama replied.

"Cool! I wonder what it is." Naruto said.

"Once you figure out what it is, you gotta find some scrolls to help you with it." Kurama informed.

"What do you mean? Is it like a summoning jutsu or something?"

"You'll find out later on today." Kurama finished, cutting off the connection.

Naruto grumbled and put on his claw-hiding gloves, his bandages, and slipped on the arm-belts on the bandages on his left arm, finishing his attire. Naruto picked up some scrolls from his drawers and slipped them inside the scroll pockets his shorts gave. He slipped on his kunai pouch and headed out the door. He immediately jumped on the nearest rooftop and headed toward Training Ground 3.

"I should pick up Hinata." Naruto mused. The young blonde has been thinking about the Hyuuga ever since Kurama told him that she visited him everyday during her free time. Naruto never knew what it felt like to have someone actually care about him except Kurama and Iruka. He quickly changed direction and headed to the Hyuuga Compound.

-Hyuuga Compound-

Hinata Hyuuga just finished putting on her jacket and walked outside her room.

"Hello Hinata-Sama." one of the branch members greeted her with a smile. Most of the branch members really liked Hinata compared to the other main house members. All the other main house members used always used the seal on them, while Hinata didn't since she is probably the shyest one in the Hyuuga family. The seal was to control the branch members if they ever defied the main house. The second purpose of the seal was to seal their Byakugan when they die, therefor preventing the enemy who killed them to learn the secrets. Only the branch members was branded with the seal because the main house thought that the branch members could easily die in battle.

Hinata bowed to the branch member that greeted her and walked her way to her father's office. Hinata knocked on the door and waited for a reply.

"Come in." he heard her father say. Hinata slid open the door and let herself in.

"Hello father." Hinata greeted her father with a bow. Hinata's father was Hiashi Hyuuga, the clan leader of the Hyuuga. Ever since his wife, Hana Hyuuga, died, Hiashi has been more distant and more cold to the Hyuuga clan, even to his own daughters. Hinata remembered the times when Hiash, Hana, and her spent together before Hana died. The memories were filled with joy and her family always bonded together.

"What is it that you need Hinata?" Hiashi asked, cutting Hinata's thoughts off.

"I will g-go n-now to meet m-my team for o-our final G-Genin test." Hinata informed, cursing herself for her stutter.

"Go on ahead. Do your best to show off for the Hyuuga Clan, and try not to slow them down." Hiashi stated coldly.

Without saying another word, Hinata walked out of the office, on the verge of crying. Hiashi noticed that Hinata was about to cry and sighed to himself. He put down his pen and opened his desk drawer and pulled out a picture. It was him, Hinata, Hana, and baby Hanabi for a family picture.

"Those were the good days," Hiashi thought, "I wonder what happened to her. She just disappeared all of a sudden." From the reports of the Hyuuga members, Hana didn't die when she gave birth to Hanabi. About a week after Hanabi's birth, Hiashi just assumed she just disappeared. Her disappearing all of a sudden didn't make any sense to him. He knew Hana wasn't like that, ditching her family for no apparent reason. He knew he had to lie to Hinata and Hanabi about their mothers death, but now that he thought about it, it would have been better just to tell the truth instead of lying to them.

Hiashi took a deep breath and put the picture back in his desk, and resumed his paperwork.

-Naruto-

Naruto leapt down to the nearest rooftop and stared at the Hyuuga Compound. It was probably the biggest compound in the entire village as far as he knew. There were two guards standing in the front so Naruto wouldn't be able to get in through there.

Naruto didn't have to think of a plan since Hinata came through the door. He noticed that her eyes were slightly watery, but she wasn't completely crying. Both of the guards bowed their head to Hinata and greeted her. Once Hinata wasn't in sight of the guards, Naruto jumped down in front of her.

"Hey Hinata!" Naruto yelled as he leapt down. The startled Hinata lost her footing and tripped forward, tackling into Naruto.

Luckily Naruto caught Hinata and managed to stand his ground at the same time. Naruto caught Hinata in his chest, with of course made Hinata blush madly.

"He's so fit," Hinata thought as her hands and her head fell on his chest. Hinata blushed to herself, "No, bad Hinata!"

"I'm so sorry for startling you. I didn't mean to." Naruto apologized as he pushed Hinata back up on her feet.

"N-No, it's o-ok Naruto-kun." Hinata said.

Naruto noticed her face turning red and asked, "Hey Hinata? Are you sick or something?" Naruto touched her forehead, trying to see if she had a fever.

"You know for a Kitsune, who's senses are way stronger than normal people, you're an idiot." Kurama grumbled.

"What? Why?" Naruto asked his Sensei.

Kurama sighed and ignored the young blonde.

"N-No. It's n-nothing," Hinata stuttered. Deciding to change the subject, she asked, "W-What are y-you d-doing here?"

"Well I came to pick you up so we can go to the Training Ground together. We have 15 minutes! Let's go!" Naruto exclaimed. Naruto grabbed her wrist and lifted her up to his arms, carrying her bridal style. Hinata insanely blushed, creating a new shade of red.

"She must be really sick. I wonder why she isn't telling me." Naruto wondered as he ran up to the wall of a nearest building.

"Dumbass." Kurama said, cutting off the connection before Naruto could reply.

-Training Ground 3-

Naruto jumped down to the training ground, and let go of Hinata. Hinata, with a blush that has lasted for 15 minutes, stood up, still dazed by the fact that Naruto held her like a bride. Hinata fixed her hair that was ruined by the high speed Naruto was running. She didn't know that Naruto could run so fast, let alone be so built.

Naruto grinned and looked around the training ground. There was a lake over to the side and three tree stumps on the other side. Sitting on the left stump was their other teammate, Uchiha Sasuke. Naruto walked over to the Uchiha and greeted him.

"Yo, Sasuke." Naruto greeted as he sat up on the middle stump. Hinata followed and sat on the far right stump. Hinata greeted her other teammate with a bow.

"Hey.. Hinata." Sasuke said, completely ignoring Naruto. Naruto twitched and bought up a fist.

"Don't you ignore me!" Naruto yelled.

"What are you going to do about it?" Sasuke remarked, jumping down to the ground.

"I will kick your ass just like last time!" Naruto yelled also jumping down.

"Like I said, that was just plain luck. You're dead last ass couldn't beat an elite Uchiha." Sasuke replied. Hinata noticing the tension that was happening between them said,

"H-Hey g-guys calm d-down." Hinata waved her arms that motioned them to calm themselves down.

Naruto grumbled and sat back down on the stump. Sasuke leaned on his tree stump and waited for their Sensei.

-Three Hours Later-

Naruto grumbled and paced back and forth.

"Will you stop moving dobe?" Sasuke complained.

"Hell no! Where is Kakashi-Sensei!" Naruto yelled.

"I-I'm sure K-Kakashi-Sensei will b-be h-here soon." Hinata said, trying to calm Naruto down.

"He's here." Naruto said as he sensed his Sensei.

"Yo," Kakashi said as he appeared in front of the trio, startling them, except Naruto, "I can't believe he actually sensed me coming. Maybe there's more than meets the eye to this kid."

"And you are late, why?" Naruto asked, crossing his arms.

"I got lost on the road of life." Kakashi lied.

"Liar." Naruto grumbled.

Getting to all seriousness, Kakashi put on his serious face. Naruto noticed the change in attitude in Kakashi and walked up to him. Sasuke and Hinata stood beside Naruto. Kakashi pulled out an alarm clock and set it on the stump.

"This clock will ring at 12:00," Kakashi said. The former ANBU captain then pulled out two bells from his weapon pouch, "Until then, you have to get these bells from me with the intent to kill. If you don't you will be tied down to the tree stump and will have no lunch. Plus, you will be sent back to the Academy. Any questions?"

"Why are there only two bells when there are three of us?" Naruto wondered.

"You figure it out." Kakashi stated.

"Plus, it isn't possible to have a three man team." Naruto asked.

"I know," Kakashi said, "Any other questions?"

Seeing that there are no other questions, Kakashi yelled, "Begin!"

Immediately, Sasuke and Hinata jumped back in the forest. Naruto leapt back a couple feet, still in Kakashi's eye sight.

"You should have done what your other teammates did." Kakashi stated as he pulled out his book.

"Don't tell me what to do," Naruto said cockily, "Can I use it?"

"Go ahead. Put some blood on it and it will appear." Kurama informed.

Naruto bit his thumb till it bled and swiped it along the seal on his wrist. There was a puff of smoke and a scythe appeared in his hand. The scythe had a blueish purple chakra surrounding it.

"Cool! What is this!" Naruto asked his Sensei.

"Jump in the forest and I will tell you about it." Kurama informed. Naruto did as what he was told and immediately jumped back in the forest.

"Why would he summon it if he wouldn't even use it against me?" Kakashi wondered.

"What was that thing?" Sasuke asked himself as he watched the whole thing.

"I wonder what that was?" Hinata thought.

-Naruto-

Getting a good distance away from the gravity-defying hair ninja, Naruto leapt on a tree branch and sat down.

"So you mind explaining this to me?" Naruto asked. The scythe

"It's a scythe that I personally made when I was training you. Only those who contain me can wield it. If you ever lose it, it will appear in your hand again after a short amount of time. If a person other than yourself wields it for a certain amount of time, it will send an electric pulse in the person's body, shocking them to unconsciousness. When you summon it, your chakra affinity will start surrounding it. If you have two, whichever affinity is stronger will surround it. Since your wind chakra is stronger than your fire chakra, your wind affinity surrounded it. Finally, if a jutsu ever confronts the scythe, the scythe will absorb the jutsu and repel it back at the opponent." Kyuubi finished.

"Just like my Wind Style: Wind Repelling Shield," Naruto thought, "This is so cool! Thanks Sensei!"

"No problem." Kurama said.

"I'm going to use it on Kakashi-Sensei!" Naruto exclaimed as he jumped down the branch.

"Idiot! Don't! You have no experience in fighting with a scythe, so don't use it brat! After this test is over, go to the library and find some scrolls. For right now, just go and fight the guy with taijutsu and ninjutsu." Kurama grumbled.

"Fine." Naruto mumbled. He sealed the scythe back in the seal and charged to the field where Kakashi was. Naruto jumped down behind a bush and observed the scene.

In the middle of the field was Sasuke was in the ground and only his head was showing. Naruto snickered to himself. Kakashi was leaning against the tree, reading his book.

"Let me go dammit!" Sasuke yelled.

"You know Sasuke, cussing at your age is very bad." Kakashi replied, not letting his head out of the book. Kakashi's eyes widened and he rolled to the side, just in time to avoid a punch from Naruto. Naruto punched the tree, which exploded on impact.

"Such force." Kakashi thought. The Jounin noticed a blueish purple chakra surrounding Naruto's arms and legs.

"Gotta buy some time for Hinata." Naruto thought to himself. Naruto immediately leapt at Kakashi and threw a punch. Kakashi leaned his head to the side and avoided the punch from Naruto. Naruto smirked to himself as he noticed a cut appearing on Kakashi's mask. Feeling the cut, Kakashi leapt back.

"I was sure I dodge it." Kakashi mused. His thoughts were interrupted as he jumped up, dodging a fireball coming from his side. Kakashi looked to the direction the fireball came from and saw Sasuke smirking.

"Who let him out?" Kakashi wondered. He looked to the front and saw Naruto still standing there. He was grinning. "The Hyuuga!" Kakashi did a high backflip, just in time dodging Hinata's Gentle Fist.

"Sasuke! Shoot a fireball at Kakashi!" Naruto yelled to his teammate.

"Dobe! Why should I listen to you!" Sasuke yelled back.

"Just do it dammit!" Naruto shouted. Sasuke grumbled and started to weave some hand signs.

"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" Sasuke shouted.

"Wind Style: Great Breakthrough!" Naruto shouted. Naruto directed the blast of wind to the fireball. Instantly, the fireball increased in size and was heading toward Kakashi. Kakashi's eyes widened. Kakashi was still in the air from his backflip and couldn't dodge it. Kakashi got out a chain from his weapon pouch and threw it at a branch. The chain wrapped around the branch and Kakashi swang over there and landed on the branch, just in time to avoid the flaming impact the jutsu had.

Hinata snuck up behind Kakashi and threw a chain around Kakashi. Kakashi's eyes widened as he felt a cold metal surrounding him. Hinata tightened the chains. Kakashi quickly did a substitution jutsu and landed away from his students.

"Nice one Hinata!" Naruto thought as he watched the scene.

"They sure are interesting." Kakashi mused. Kakashi quickly jumped up, dodging an uppercut from Naruto who was in the ground.

"So close!" Naruto thought.

"Fire Style: Phoenix Fire Flower Jutsu!" Sasuke shouted from a distant. Sasuke took a deep breath and shot multiple fireballs at the Jounin. Naruto noticed the small fireballs heading towards Kakashi, and started to weave some signs of his own.

"Wind Style: Spiraling Wind Ball!" Naruto breathed a wind-infused chakra into the palm of his hand, and shaped it into a small, whirlwind-like ball. Naruto blew the jutsu from his palm and started to shoot several of them.

Kakashi jumped to the side and dodged the incoming elemental balls. When he landed on the ground, he was met with Hinata who challenged him to a taijutsu battle. Kakashi dodged, blocked, and swatted all the attempts away. Soon enough, Naruto joined in on the taijutsu battle. Even though Kakashi blocked every single punch that was thrown at him from the two Genin, Naruto always seemed to manage to land a cut on Kakashi's face.

Kakashi leaned back and put his hands on the ground then kicked both of them in the stomach, and leapt up to the sky and dodged a fireball launched by Sasuke. Naruto and Hinata quickly got up and charged at Kakashi.

"And time is up." Kakashi stated as the bell rang from the alarm clock, stopping Naruto and Hinata.

"Dammit!" Naruto yelled as he punched the closest tree, annihilating it. Sasuke cursed himself and stomped on the ground. Hinata's face saddened, thinking that it was their fault that all three of them failed.

"Since time is up, you all-" Kakashi said.

"Fail. Yeah we know." Naruto grumbled, interrupting Kakashi.

"You all pass!" Kakashi yelled with his famous smile. The trio looked up to Kakashi with a happy, but confused face.

"Wait, why do you we pass?" Naruto asked.

"The whole point of the test was to see if you guys would actually use teamwork to get the bells. I'm a Jounin, two ranks higher than you. One simple Genin couldn't beat a Jounin. So the three of you had to join together and fight me." Kakashi stated.

"We didn't even plan to fight together," The trio thought, "We just attacked when we saw an opening."

"In the ninja world, those who break the rules are trash, but those who abandon their comrades are worse than trash." Kakashi said out of the blue, breaking the trios thoughts.

"Meaning that, we have to rely on each other all the time when we fight a bigger and better opponent." Naruto said.

"That is exactly right Naruto." Kakashi said with a smile.

"When Naruto asked you those questions, you didn't answer them. You had to make us think it through." Sasuke stated.

"Ah, good job Sasuke. Always look underneath the underneath," Kakashi stated as he whipped out his book, "For a suppose-to-be dead last, Naruto is really good, even better than Sasuke in my opinion. I wonder what happened during the time when he was a coma."

"All three of you are now officially Genin. Meet back here at 9:00 tomorrow so we can start some training and some missions." Kakashi disappeared in a puff of smoke.

"Yatta!" Naruto exclaimed and started doing his happy dance. Hinata smiled at the antics of the blonde. Sasuke smirked to himself and walked away, going back to train.

"Hinata! Let's go celebrate! Ichiraku Ramen!" Naruto yelled happily. He, again, grabbed Hinata bridal style and leapt away with a blushing Hinata in his arms.
