Author Note: I reread chapter five, and I realized…i need to rush more often…Heh, anyway, I'm determined to not get grounded since my punishments usually include me on lockdown in my room with absolutely no connection to the outside world except for school…it usually lasts a month…give or take a bit…or a lot…anyway…

Oh, yeah! I should clear this up to those who are still wondering, yes, the Uchiha massacre is still going to happen, and you'll find out why in future chapters…as to what will happen to Kag-chan and the others…well, you just have to read to find out *grins for no good reason*

…um…what say we get to the chapter now?

KagomeXItachi

"I'm talking."

'I'm thinking.'

Onto chapter six!

LET'S GO! LET'S GO!

Kagome sighed in frustration as she rode on Raizen, while Itachi just walked alongside him, with a look of irritation on his face of course.

"You know, if you two didn't try to kill each other so often, I wouldn't be here," Raizen said with a cheery expression as he gave a light chuckle.

Both chibis glared at each other before turning away so they could hide their small smile that threatened to break free. Kagome's decided to be more noticeable than Itachi's.

Raizen sighed before mentally smirking as the academy came into view, 'hehe, this ought to be fun. I could use some entertainment. Raiden, you better have rigged the squad assignments. If you didn't, my job is going to be more difficult than I anticipated…oh well…I'll make it work either way.'

"Alright you two, we're here. So what say we meet your new team?" Raizen said as Kagome proceeded to get off his back. Both chibis decided to head towards the building before Raizen decided to do something stupid.

"Let me know if you two get on the same team," he called after them.

All he received in return was a glare, courtesy of Itachi. He sweatdropped as Itachi turned and headed towards the front door, leaving Raizen alone outside.

A LITTLE LATER…

Everyone was in their seats as they waited anxiously for their Sensei to announce who their new teams will be. They impatiently watched their Sensei organize the papers with their names on them.

Everyone looked around to see familiar faces, along with some, not so familiar ones. The new faces were all a year older than themselves.

Their Sensei looked up from his no longer mixed up papers, and then stood up to face the class.

"Alright everyone, it's time to announce the new teams. Since most of you failed, leaving us with too small a number, you might be placed into a squad with someone older than you from a different group of students, who also graduated."

'Well, that explains the new faces,' Kagome thought as she looked around the room, her eyes settling on Shisui, another Uchiha who she has seen around in the Uchiha compound. 'Shisui's here? Cool, we might get the same team. That way, I know him, and it will be easier to work as a team, considering it's almost impossible to get Itachi to work with others unless necessary.'

At that moment, Itachi was thinking his own thoughts as well. "What is Shisui doing here? I thought he wasn't going to graduate until a year from now,' he thought as he looked at the familiar face of his cousin.

"Alright people, settle down and shut up so I can name off the people you'll be stuck with for the rest of your lives." Everyone sweatdropped at their sensei's choice of words. "Good. Now that we understand each other, let us begin shall we?" He grabbed his clipboard and began to read aloud the names in the order in which they were.

"Team One will consist of…" At this point, both Itachi and kagome zoned out and became immersed in their own thoughts for a while, until a certain name caught both their interest.

"Team Four will consist of Uchiha, Shisui…"they were both indeed curious as to who would be on his team.

"…Uchiha, Itachi…" suddenly, all the girls closed their eyes and crossed their fingers while their hopes flew up higher than the clouds. This made and all the males in the room sweatdrop. Kagome was the only female in the room who noticed Itachi's nervous look.

'Hell, I'd be nervous too…fan people are scary…good thing they know better than to mess with him. Even I rarely talk to him here. It sucks being glared at,' Kagome began thinking with sympathy. 'Though it's still funny how much they want to be on his team. I wouldn't mind myself, considering all the guys stare at me like a prize trophy…' she thought as she began to fiddle with the bracelet around her left wrist, on the opposite hand of her tattoo.

"…and finally, Higurashi, Kagome. Your Sensei will be Namiashi, Raido. You are to meet him in room 301 after I'm done announcing the teams."

Suddenly, Kagome felt all the females glaring daggers at the back of her head as she sweatdropped. She looked out of the corner of her eye, and noticed the males with disappointed looks on their faces, while others decided to glare at the Sensei.

"Hey! Don't glare at me! I didn't make the teams. I just announce who's going to be in them to any unlucky suckers who actively despise their new teammates," he said in a cheery voice before listing off the last couple of teams.

'He reminds me a little too much of Raizen…' both chibis unknowingly thought at the same time…again…

Kagome looked at her new teammates. One, who was sitting next to her, and the other who was clear across the room, 'My new teammates are both Uchiha. Great, I get to deal with their Uchiha pride…'

She then looked out the window, and noticed a black blob flying at the window. Her eyes widened as she made a mad dash for the window. Just as she opened it, Raizen came flying through, without a crash, like the last time.

Once he landed on the table, he decided to ask a simple question, "Hey! Who's on your team?" Kagome sweatdropped at his bluntness.

"Itachi and Shisui are both on my team, while our Sensei is Namiashi, Raido. We need to go meet him in a few minutes."

"Sweet. What's up Shisui? The bet's still on you know," Shisui's eyes widened as he was remembered about a certain bet.

"What bet?" Itachi said, deciding to make his presence known to the over-excited wolf.

"I'm not telling you 'cause it's a secret, " Raizen grinned at Itachi's semi-irritated look, Kagome's curious look, and Shisui's relieved one.

"Anyway, back to whatever we were talking about. I suggest you go meet your new Sensei, considering everyone else has already left…" Raizen said as he looked around at the empty classroom.

"For once, you're right wolf," Itachi said, clearly mocking him. He turned and began to walk towards the exit, with his new teammates in tow, leaving the wolf alone, once again.

IN ROOM 301...

"I hope Raido-sensei isn't late…" Kagome thought aloud. Shisui and Itachi both nodded their heads in agreement as they looked up at the clock.

"He should be here in a few minutes Kagome-chan. You just have to be a little patient," Shisui told her with a small smile on his face.

"He's right Kagome. You shouldn't worry, " Itachi said in one of his public acts of reassurance, making Shisui's eyes widen in surprise.

"You're both right. I shouldn't be worrying over something so small," Kagome answered back with a small smile.

A FEW MINUTES LATER…

Somehow, everyone was still waiting patiently without a word for the arrival of their Sensei, at least, until the door opened, and a man walked in.

They all looked at the source of the disturbance. At the door stood a man that looked to be about twenty years old. He had short brown hair, and brown eyes to match. He also wore the standard Jounin outfit, and his headband rested on his forehead.

"Hello. I'm Namiashi Raido, your new Sensei," he said introducing himself. "You must be Higurashi Kagome," he said as he looked at the only female of the group, "Uchiha Shisui," his gaze drifted to his tallest student, "and last but not least, Uchiha Itachi," he then looked at the last member of his team.

He smirked, before gaining a look of boredom, "Honestly, I thought my new students would be older. Imagine my surprise when I learn my new soldiers are seven and ten years old."

They all proceeded to glare at him.

"Now that I've introduced myself, meet me at training ground 4," he said as he disappeared in cloud of smoke, leaving behind three irritated chibis.

All three proceeded to make handsigns, before disappearing in a cloud of smoke as well.

AT TRAINING GROUND 4...

All three found themselves at the training ground. they looked around, and found their sensei leaning against a tree. He proceeded to walk over and talk to them.

"Good, now it's time to test your skills to see if you will qualify to become actual genin. Considering you are all smart, a little too smart for your own good, all three of you probably realized that the exam at the academy was to see who will qualify to become genin. Only six teams were formed, so that means two will actually pass and become genin," he said as he looked at his team.

"Now, your test is to catch my clone. You may use any means necessary to achieve your goal. However, you are not allowed to ask for my whereabouts. That will instantly fail you, and you will be sent straight back to the academy, the lot of you, no questions asked. Your time limit will be at sundown. when the last ray of light is gone, you fail. You have until then, good luck, and don't disappoint me," he said as he suddenly disappeared.

All three looked at the spot where he was, then looked at each other to see if anyone had any ideas. Itachi was the first to speak. the other two listened intently before agreeing to his stepped back as Kagome began to make handsigns, and in a cloud of smoke, appeared Raiden.

"Raiden, we need your help to track down Raido-sensei," Kagome told him as she explained why as well.

"Sure, why not," it was all he said before he began searching for the stray scent. As soon as he found it, he turned toward it, then took off at a pace the other three could keep up with.

"His scent is faint, and its like a maze going around the whole entire town.....this might take awhile," he said with a sigh.

"Great...anyone good at puzzles?"

Everyone looked at Shisui's annoyed face, "Well, we better get started if we're going to catch him..."

The others nodded as they began to follow Raiden around the village.

MANY HOURS, HOUSES, PLANTS, ANIMALS, STALLS, PEOPLE AND MIX-UPS LATER...

"Ha! I found the real scent this time! It leads towards the hotsprings!" Raiden exclaimed with joy. "I finally found him!" He then took aff in the direction to the hot springs with the other three on his tail.

"He actually found it this time! He finally managed to isolate the original scent from the others!" Kagome said with enthusiasm as she followed the wolf.

"Just in time too. The sun is going to set soon," Shisui said as he looked at the almost setting sun.

The others turned to look as well as they realized he was right. Soon, they finally arrived at the hotsprings. They hid behind a few bushes as they proceeded with their plan. Itachi nodded towards Kagome as they got into position to attack.

She made the handsigns once again, and then with a cloud of smoke and a poof, stood Raizen, in all his furry glory. She gestured him to not talk as Raiden appeared next to her.

'He's there, I'll tell Raizen of the plan,' Raiden told her telepathically.

She nodded as she moved to her position, leaving behind the two wolves. Once she was in place, she waited for the plan to begin. She looked around carefully, and soon found her sensei wainting patiently, checking a small timer.

Suddenly, the bushes rustled, and Raiden appeared from the bushes, and Raizen appeared on the opposite side. Both were leaping at him with their fangs and claws ready to fight. They missed as Raido sidestepped their attack. Then, they both began to snap and claw at Raido as he took out a kunai and fought back. All three attacked simultaneously as cuts and bruises began to form on them.

The wounds were small and insignificant to them. They just continued to attack, until the wolves' ears stopped their attack and jumped away as a giant fireball came flying towards him. He leaped up, narrowlly dodging the fireball. As soon as he landed on the ground, he then felt a sharp pain on both his legs, arm, and something against his neck.

Drip, Drip

Drip, Drip

Drip, Drip

Splash

He looked down and saw a puddle of blood forming at his feet. he looked down and saw the wolves biting down on his leg, Itachi had a kunai through his left arm, Kagome through his right, and Shisui somehow appeared behind him, and had an arm around his throat, as well as a this red line on his neck. Each injury was seeping blood. They all had emotionless looks on their faces as they held him in place..

'Heh...they honestly wouldn't hesitate to kill me if it ever came down to it,' Raido thought as he smirked, and then disappeared with a poof and a cloud of smoke.

They all moved back as soon as he disappeared. They turned around when they heard footsteps behind them. There, walking out of a few bushes stood Raido with a pleased look on his face.

"Congrats! You pass and are officially team four. Meet here tomorrow for your first mission. Sunrise, remember that," with that, Raido and Shisui disappeared. Raido in a poof of smoke, and Shisui just seemed to fade.

"How in the name of Hell does that kid do that? He just fades away," Raizen said aloud. 'Why do I get the feeling something bad is going to happen to that kid.'

'Bad? What do you mean?'

'I just can't help but get the feeling that something bad is going to happen. I don't know what, but it is.'

With that thought, both wolves, along with the other two, looked at the empty space in front of them.

The four just seemed to watch them simply leave with an annoyed look on their faces. Kagome looked down as her eyes slightly widened.

"Um...I got a problem..." Kagome said with slight worry.

"What?" Raiden asked as he looked at her.

"I'm glowing..."

"Crap..." Raizen swore as he picked by the back of her shirt, Raiden grabbed Itachi, and they ran into the forest.
