And special thanks to rtyuiop for your review! I'm sorry she doesn't seem to have a dark history or past… she does, but it's taking me to long to get it written out I suppose… I'll do my best to try speed things up!

Jutsu Four: Team Seven

Usuratoncachi – "Moron of Morons", "Ultimate Moron" You get the idea, neh? It's one of the insults Sasuke commonly uses to refer to Naruto.
Ohiyo – Japanese greeting for "good morning"

Roy-chan stood on a hard-packed dirt path kicking up dust. She'd come to the meeting place early, so no one was here yet. She looked around past the strips of grass alongside the path to the leafy green trees. There was the light twittering of birds and a squirrel was chattering for some reason somewhere. Sighing she looked further down the path. There was a clearing beyond the trees that was also rimmed with greenery. It was nice to be around so many lively people, warm sunlight, and to be able to enjoy the slow travel of the clouds again; especially compared to…

Suddenly she sensed a foreboding aura nearby. It began to fill her with dread, her body even began to slightly tremble as her breathing began to come in small gasps. Her body felt as if it had been paralysed, but fear had hit her so suddenly that she couldn't feel anything else. Was this a strong killing intent she'd heard about? As her mind often does with her, it took her off on a tangent, she began to think back to the past few days, her lessons and training with Iruka-sensei. She'd finally gotten word from the Hokage as well. I'd been given the rank of Genin, and she was to see Iruka-sensei a few more times for some minor lesson extensions about Konohagakure Shinobi and a bit of history on the village that other academy students would have been taught.

Then, without realizing the killing intent had moved on past her and was no longer affecting her, a loud voice in the distance caught her attention.

"…ne Sasuke-kun!" a girls voice called out behind Roy-chan. Turning she could see two people coming towards her. One wore a dark blue shirt and white shorts. He also had dark hair that bordered his forehead protector. He kept his hands in his pockets and his forearms were covered by white arm bands trimmed in blue. His eyes were closed and his face showed slight irritation, but otherwise nothing else. A girl with pink hair was giddily walking next to him, seeming to chatter non-stop. She wore a red short-sleeved dress-like top, over dark green shorts, that were trimmed in white with a white circle near the bottom front. The blue of her forehead protector stood out against her pink hair, and she wore it in a headband fashion. As she got closer Roy-chan noticed her forehead looked rather wide. She turned her gaze back to the boy, he'd opened his eyes, and they were locked onto her. She could feel a dark tinge to his aura, and his onyx eyes didn't soften that feeling any. Unknowingly her relaxed stance had turned to a more rigid and prepared one.

Today was the day Naruto-kun had set for Roy-chan to meet his teammates. Apparently they had just gotten back from their mission yesterday afternoon. He hadn't been happy about not going with them, due to injuries sustained from their previous mission, which was not discussed. The first impression she'd gotten from the boy had captured her full attention and her mind filtered out why she was here to begin with. Their eyes remained locked, and the sharpness of their eyes never waned. So her questioning thoughts as to why Naruto-kun had chosen this location to meet were lost for the moment, as well as the gushing of the pink-haired girl over the dark-haired boy.

The boy stopped and turned at a slight angle less than a meter from Roy-chan, the intensity of their stares had increased. So much so that the pink-haired girl took notice of it at last and turned to see what her centre of attention was giving so much of his attention to. The girl blinked seeing it was another girl, not only one she'd never seen before, but apparently another ninja. She would have prepared for a fight, but confusion began to creep in when she noticed the other girl was also wearing a Konoha forehead protector. She looked to be her age, but she didn't remember her from the academy.

Silence stretched on for a few moments and the pink-haired girl was about to speak, but the boy and Roy-chan both narrowed their eyes before snapping their heads in opposite directions and angrily huffing.

Now feeling very confused and out in the cold the pink-haired girl was about to ask what the heck was going on, but she was interrupted by a loud voice familiar to the trio.

"Roooy-chyaaaan! Sakuraaa-chyaaan! Sasssukeee!" the approaching blond called out.

The girls turned their heads down the path to watch as Naruto-kun leapt down from the trees, sprinted towards them, and came to a sudden halt next to Roy-chan. The boy just kept his eyes averted from Roy-chan.

Naruto slammed his hand down on Roy-chan's shoulder as he caught his breath, "Gomen, I was enjoying my ramen so much that I'd almost lost track of time!"

"Usuratonkachi, you're beginning to sound like that Jounin." The boy coolly replied.

"Sasuke!" Naruto's anger swelled so fast it threw Roy-chan off guard.

Sasuke was smirking, and Naruto was ready to lunge at him but the girl, Sakura, stepped between them, she also looked pretty ticked off.

"Naruto! Don't even think about touching Sasuke-kun! And you should have been the first one here, Baka!" Sakura yelled, her fist waving in the air… until it collided with Naruto's head.

"Ow, ow, ow! Sakura-chyaaan, that hurt…" Naruto whined as he rapidly rubbed his head and the forming lump.

Sakura was yelling at Naruto-kun and he was trying to get a word in his own defence, but it wasn't working.

Roy-chan sweat-dropped, sighed, and let her shoulders sag. Naruto hadn't given her much to go on for what his team was like, but this seemed to explain more than she expected, and maybe more than she wanted to know.

Realizing she felt a coldness nearby again, though hardly as threatening as what she felt before everyone had shown up, Roy-chan looked up. Sasuke was glaring at her again. She growled and glared back. Both had their arms folded over their chests.

Suddenly Sakura stopped mid-sentence when she felt the tension between Sasuke and Roy-chan building so high that she could feel their chakara levels rise. Looking worried she asked uncertainly, "Sasuke-kun?"

"Sakura-chan?" Naruto questioned when she'd stopped threatening him and he turned to see Roy-chan and Sasuke glaring at each other. "Ne? Nani, nani?"

Silence passed by for a few moments with no movement from anyone.

"Oh yeah!" his enthusiasm replenished he rushed back to Roy-chan's side. "Ne, Roy-chan, these are my team mates:" he gestured to each of them respectively, "Uchiha Saskuke," The mention of his name was laced with dislike, "and, Haruno Sakura-chyaan… 3" he ended up smiling her way and saying her name in an airy way.

Roy-chan had a smirk tugging at the corner of her mouth and she broke her gaze with Sasuke. So it seems Naruto-kun does have it pretty bad for Sakura, neh? She thought.

Naruto gestured towards Roy-chan, "And this is Roy-chan"

Seeming to do her best to smile and ignore Naruto-kun Sakura put her hand forward, "Ohiyo, Roy-chan! I hear you have come to stay with us from another village. Which one was that… Roy-chan?" She turned to see Sasuke and Roy-chan having another staring contest, "Sasuke-kun…?"

Naruto looked on in confusion, "Nanda?"

A breeze blew through and pushed a few leaves through the air and ruffled everyone's hair and clothing slightly.

Then Roy-chan broke the silence with a single statement, "I just don't see it."

"Nani?" was all Sakura replied with, the uncertainty in her face clear.

"Eh?" Naruto asked, squinting between Sasuke and Roy-chan, "What is it you don't see? What are you looking for?"

Sasuke simply frowned, but his gaze didn't waver.

Roy-chan unfolded her arms, shrugged, tilting her head to one side, closing her eyes, and rasing her hands to about shoulder-length, "I just don't see what all the fuss between the girls of Konoha is about for this Uchiha Sasuke."

The boy in question made a startled noise.

Sakura was stunned, and only blinked for a couple moments before the impact of Roy-chan's words seemed to hit her… and knock her backwards. She twitched, whether with anger or surprise, is unknown. Naruto burst into a fit of laughter.

The reactions of the others only made the smirk grow from the corner of Roy-chan's mouth.

"Tch." Slight colour seemed to rise in Sasuke's cheeks as he turned his head away from the others, his hands clenching his arms a little.

Naruto tried to speak again, but he was still laughing pretty hard. "Roy-chan" he was holding his sides as he looked up at her, "I knew I liked you for a reason!" His laughter was obscuring the rest of whatever he had been trying to say.

Sasuke had regained his composure and a smirk of his own pulled at his lips, "I think you've been living with Naruto to long."

"Hmm?" it was Roy-chan's turn for confusion.

Naruto was beginning to calm down. Sakura was getting up.

"He's beginning to rub off on you." His mouth curved to a smirk, "And I'm not sure that's a good look for you."

"Nani?!" Roy-chan's anger boiled over and she brought a fist up in front of her and it was shaking, her eyes burning.

Sakura sweat dropped with Naruto, he was remembering how Roy-chan could be when she was angry. Almost as bad as Sakura, ALMOST.

She was just about to lunge at Sasuke, but Naruto had gotten behind her, put his arms under hers, and held her back, "Ne, ne! Roy-chan! That Teme is annoying, believe me I know –tebayo! "

Sakura had stepped between Roy-chan and Sasuke, facing him, and nervously tried to talk him down from starting anything more. Sasuke just seemed to ignore her with his attention turned away from everyone again.

Naruto began speaking to Roy-chan again, "But I am the one who'll be Hokage someday! I'll be better than Sasuke-teme and you can count on me defeating him!" He wore a large foolish grin.

Roy-chan was taken by surprise again and turned to look at Naruto. Still wearing that grin she relaxed at seeing it and smiled. Naruto let go of her and laughed with Roy-chan. Sakura sighed and gave up trying to talk to Sasuke, he was just ignoring her.

Suddenly someone appeared on the path near the genin, "Yo." The man wore the blue clothes and green flak jacket of higher ranked shinobi, but he also wore a blue mask over his face, and his headband came down from his forehead and silver hair to cover his left eye. He also wore blue gloves with metal plates on the back. "I had to return a few scrolls to a friend before-"

"Liar! Kakashi-sensei, your late!" Sakura and Naruto were angrily pointing him.

Roy-chan wore a stunned look, her mouth had dropped open and a sweat drop trailed down the side of her head. She was starring at Kakashi.

Sasuke just wore an annoyed look, his arms folded across his chest again.

Through the hail of complaints from Sakura and Naruto Kakashi turned to look at the mesmerized Roy-chan. His one visible eye had a soft happy look to it. He may have been smiling.

"So, you must be the new genin Hokage-sama and Iruka-sensei have spoken of?" Kakashi asked

Sasuke turned his head to look at Kakashi.

"Hai! Kakashi-sensei, this is Roy-chan. She's come from another village." Sakura replied.

"Kakashii-sensei, Kakashi-sensei! I'm the one who found her outside the village!" Naruto had his hand raised in the air and was speaking rapidly and enthusiastically, "She'd been out in the forest alone for a long time! I brought her to the village and Tsunade-ba-chan let her live here in the village with us. She even let her become a Ninja because she was pretty good at it!"

Roy-chan was now a light shade of pink and giggling quietly to herself, a new sweat drop sliding down her face; although she seemed oblivious to Naruto's comments, and she was still looking at Kakashi. Sasuke wore a sour looking face, Sakura seemed to be day-dreaming as she starred at Sasuke with her fists near her chin and a dreamy look on her face. Naruto laughed and rubbed the back of his head.

"Is that so…" Kakashi was looking at Naruto, but shifted to look at Roy-chan.

Sasuke's voice seemed to cut through Sakura's internal dreaming, and Roy-chan's strange behaviour as he spoke directly to her in a serious voice, "Roy, you still haven't told us where exactly you came from. What village. Or why."

Roy-chan had become serious again. Her attention back on Sasuke, and everyone was looking at her with intent. She was just opening her mouth…

When a ninja appeared in a billow of smoke in front of Kakashi "Kakashi-san, Hokage-sama requests the attendance of you, your squad, and Roy-san in her office immediately. She has a mission to assign you."

"Oh? So soon?" Kakashi replied in his relaxed almost oblivious sounding manner.

"It must be an important and exciting mission! Dattebayo!" Naruto exclaimed as he punched a fist into the air.

Sasuke was quietly watching the ninja, Sakura looked shocked, and Roy-chan had an expression of wonder on her face.

Kakashi nodded his understanding, "We will report to Hokage-sama immediately."

"Hai." The ninja replied before disappearing in a blast of smoke again.

Kakashi looked to each of his team and Roy-chan "We should hurry."

"You were the one who was late, Dattebayo!" Naruto exclaimed and pointed his finger at Kakashi.

"But we didn't know we'd be called to Hokage-sama's office today! Or that Roy-chan would be coming too!" Sakura replied.

Before anything else could be said Kakashi-sensei had taken off into the trees.

"Oi! Kakashi-sensei!" Naruto leaped off after him.

Sasuke made a disgruntled noise and followed after Naruto-kun and Kakashi-sensei.

"Sasuke-kun!" Sakura yelled with one hand over her chest, the other reaching out to him before she leapt off as well.

Roy-chan's head drooped and she let out a long sigh before steeling her self and following after the others.
