Disclaimer: I should have one of these right?

As Naruto walked to the library to meet up with Tenten and Lee he thought about how the year went. First he thought about the first spar he had with Lee. Tenten got pissed when he tricked Lee into thinking she was Naruto. He didn't think he could make someone else henge into him and she didn't even notice until Lee almost got her. Then Tenten released it and Lee still wasn't very trusting of her because he thought she might be him using henge. Then all he had to do was take out Lee with a kunai that was actually just a stick. One of the few in the area that would fly reasonably straight. Tenten he beat by using shunshin no jutsu to get into one of her blind spots and one strike to the proper pressure point and she couldn't move.

All three of them had improved greatly. Lee would beat either of them in a pure taijutsu match and his speed was getting extremely hard to keep up with without using shunshin. Tenten found some genjutsu scrolls she wouldn't share. Those were difficult to stop if she could hit you with them she could make almost anything happen to you. He could usually break out with a huge burst of chakra but Lee was always stuck if she caught him in one. He kept looking for some more ninjutsu scrolls but hadn't found any. The only thing he could really improve on without Tenten giving up her genjutsu scrolls was taijutsu, chakra control, and chakra capacity.

'Only one more day, today, then Tenten and Lee can join me in the academy.' When he arrived at the front of the library Tenten and Lee weren't there waiting for him. 'Where could they be we agreed on early today five o' clock.'

"Sorry Naruto-san I always wake up at this time but I go and practice my taijutsu at this time so I went to the training grounds, but I remembered that we were meeting here early when I made it there."

"I have no clue why I'm getting up this early. Why did you two agree on this and why did you make me get up this early to?"

"Because us two always get up at this time so you can do it for one day."

"Should we start practicing or read some scrolls? I would like to go spar."

"I found a scroll about how the hokage and their trademark jutsu."

"That sounds boring. Was there anything interesting in it?"

"One of 'em could use wood type jutsu and the fourth who has always been my favorite used something called yellow flash sounded like some kind of extremely powerful shunshin. Could go greater distances a lot faster and takes the same amount of chakra even if its more then shunshin no matter how far you go."

"That would be extremely useful, but let me guess nobody knows it?"

"Yup no one knows how to do it and there was no record of it being recorded on a scroll."

"Then it's useless so why did you tell us?"

"I want to know how to do it and wanted you to be annoyed by not knowing just like I am."

"Well it worked ya bastard."

"I think we should go have a three way spar."

"I agree with Lee lets go. Race you there."

"Naruto! You always cheat by getting the head start."

"Come on Tenten-san we will win this time."

When they all arrived Naruto was pointing out to Lee that it was a tie. Tenten was watching the two until she got an idea. Picking up some small pebbles she aimed carefully so she would hit both of them in vital spots. Then she carefully launched them at the two.

"I win! If those were shuriken you would have been dead already."

"Hey! We hadn't started the spar yet."

"Yeah whatever I win the first round lets change it into a little contest instead of a three way battle like we usually do. Since there is only three of us one person gets a pass to fight the winner of the first fight."

"Not much of a tournament but might turn out okay. Who's up first then?"

"I'll face Lee first."

"Great I get to face Tenten then."

"Naruto-san you could at least have some confidence in me. So it does not end to quickly Tenten should have to restrict how much she uses her genjutsu"

"Lee you're going to have to learn how to fight against genjutsu eventually. What happens in a real fight when you are alone or there isn't anyone that can get to you quickly and release you?"

"She is right Lee you are going to need to learn eventually even I need to improve on that since I waste a lot of chakra with my method."
"Fine. She should have to face me in taijutsu later though."

"Yeah she needs to work on that."

"Hey! That's it I'm going to beat you right after this."

"You can try. Start you two."

Lee rushed Tenten who had begun the hand seals for a simple genjutsu. She finished the last seal and applied the required chakra to catch him with it just as Lee was within a few feet of her. Lee remembering that this genjutsu used the targets sense of sight to confuse them he closed his eyes briefly to hopefully avoid the effects. Tenten used the time he closed his eyes to find a hiding spot. Deciding to use another genjutsu this time one that would target his hearing and sight. After completing the jutsu she captured Lee then walked out of her hiding spot picked up a stick and held it to his throat as she released the genjutsu.

"Did I lose already?" asled Lee as he was released from the genjutsu that had made the person think they were asleep.

"Yeah."

"That means I'm up." Naruto started laughing and said, "Lee I'll avenge you!"

"Nope cause I'm going to beat you."

"Lets see you try."

Naruto used shunshin to hide quickly while Tenten prepared to use kawarimi as soon as he attacked. Naruto threw five pebbles at Tenten who turned into a log as soon as they connected. 'Should have expected that. Now she knows where I am and I don't know where she is.' Dodging what he guessed was supposed to be a kunai he pinpointed her location. Using the speed burst provided by shunshin no jutsu he covered the distance between them. Tenten prepared for the impact that never came because he tripped on the string she had set up right in front of her. 'What an idiot I wasn't expecting him to actually fall for it.'

"Ow."

"Looks like I do win." stated Tenten as she held a somewhat pointed stick to the back of his neck.

"That sucked we are having a rematch."

"Naruto-san did you win?" asked Lee as the two walked back over to him.

"No I beat him easily."

"That wasn't fair I tripped."

"On MY trip wire."

"It was a piece of string probably wasn't even yours."

"We use pebbles for shuriken and sticks for kunai. I think a string can count as a trip wire and it was to mine."

"Lee lets practice taijutsu."

"I'm going to go back to the library see what else I can find."

"See you tomorrow then."

"Let us start the spar then Naruto-san."

The next day they met up in front of the library like they always did, but today there destination was different the ninja academy.

"Naruto-san what do you do on the first day of the academy?"

"Boring stuff you might like the history though Iruka-sensei teaches it in a way it's interesting when on the right topic. Like the kage and different wars."

"Who else do you think is going to be in are class?"

"Probably people same age as you. Can you think of any?"

"I think there was a Hyuuga same age as me. Wasn't to interested except he was supposed to be good or at least have lots of potential."

"That him?" said Naruto pointing to a kid around a year older than him with the solid white eyes signifying a Hyuuga.

"Looks like it. Want to go meet him?"

"Sure. You going to come to Lee? Think it would be great if you could spar with him get a chance to beat the jyuuken."

"Jyuuken?"

"Naruto didn't you tell him about the Hyuuga taijutsu style?"

"Guess I didn't we must have found that scroll before you found him. It's a taijutsu style that realies heavily on chakra do to internal damage rather then external. They can also close tenketsu. That's really all we could find on it though."

"We should talk to him after class. Also if he is that good would it ruin the plan for us to get on the same team? If he is good like Tenten-san said he may be the best in the class."

"I'll handle that you just be sure to cover your position. You to Tenten."

"I have a difficult spot to maintaining the exact middle. Being the best and worst is easy to find if you're doing it right, but the middle is going to be harder."

"We have to get to class don't want to be late on our first day."

After all the classes were over Tenten spent a few minutes complaining about how pathetic the academy was. She stopped her rant when Naruto spotted the Hyuuga.

"Let's go see him then who gets to spar him first?"

"I would like to. You said he uses mostly taijutsu and I am better then you two in taijutsu."

"Exactly why you should go last. Tenten your up first."

"Don't get ahead of yourselves he might not even want to spar."

"Going to have to see about that."

"Hey. You want to spar with us?"

"The three of you?"

"Well not all at once. You can go up against Tenten first."

"Who are you?"

Naruto introduced each of them by pointing to them as he said their names. "Oh yeah, names. Uzamaki Naruto Rock Lee and Tenrai Tenten."

"I have to return home so I don't have time to spar. Goodbye." said the Hyuuga as he walked away.

"Hey! You could at least tell us your name."

"Hyuuga Neji." he said glancing back at them briefly.

Lee was thinking about how the year in the academy had gone. They still hadn't gotten to spar with Neji although Naruto beating him in everything that was graded seemed to annoy the hell out him. All three of them had improved again Naruto had finally figured out that they were right about the tree climbing exercise and asked the hokage if there was another way getting the answer that they would have to wait for that one. Lee had increased his speed enough that he could close the starting distance in their spars which was twenty feet before Tenten could get through the five hand seals in one of her genjutsu. His strength had gone up considerably as well although it wasn't that useful he could kick down some of the trees and use them as large clubs. Naruto had added a few things to his kage taijutsu style and increased his speed and strength, but he increased his chakra control and capacity the most. 'I would guess he doubled both his control and reserve from last year I do not think that there is anyone in konoha that has anywhere near that much chakra and he is still getting more. When he learns some jutsu he will become extremely difficult to defeat.'

"Class we will now begin the genin exams. First we will have a taijutsu test you must get one hit past Mizuki's guard. When I call your name go into the test room through that door." Iruka said as he pointed to the door to his right.

One at a time the students went in only two of them failed the taijutsu test.

"Okay next is a test to see your proficiency in jutsu and chakra control. When you enter the room after I call your name you will show Mizuki that you can perform henge no jutsu and bunshin no jutsu."

After everyone had completed the test except Lee who was allowed to pass with another taijutsu evaluation they were told to come back after lunch to be assigned into their genin teams.

"Think we did everything right?"

"Yeah we should end up on the same team. I don't know how many times you pissed of Neji by beating him in everything. He might have been afraid to spar with us since he knew we were faking how bad we are."

"Maybe. I just hope you got the exact middle I know Lee got the lowest scores throughout the year."

"What scroll was it that we found how the teams were selected in the academy?"

"It was labeled Konoha Ninja Academy. I thought you were the one who was supposed to remember everything."

"Who do you think our jounin-sensei will be?"

"Hopefully someone who knows genjutsu ninjutsu and taijutsu. That's what we seem to specialize in."

"My dad said he was going to teach me some weapon master techniques so I'll be learning something to back my genjutsu up."

"That's good maybe the hokage will teach me something cool."

"All academy students please report back to class to be assigned into your genin squads."

"Time to go back and find out."

"Yup."

"Class listen up after I tell you the which team you are on you will wait for your jounin-sensei to arrive. Team one Hyuuga Neji, Mer Akio, and Konshoru Tai. Team two Rock Lee, Tenrai Tenten, and Uzamaki Naruto." Iruka went on listing the different teams but Naruto, Tenten, and Lee stopped paying attention because they didn't really know anyone else in the class. "Class now you will wait until your jounin-sensei arrives."

"Hello Iruka. Is my youthful team ready?"

"Yes Gai. There right there Naruto, Lee, and Tenten."

'Holy crap it's him it's the master of the goken style. This sucks I didn't want to learn more about goken because of how he acted,' thought Tenten.

'Is that our new sensei? He seems kind of different then what I thought he would be like,' thought Lee.

'Is that the one Tenten was talking about the master of the goken style? Also did he just say his youthful team?' thought Naruto.

"Okay my youthful team lets meet on the roof."

Slowly getting up after getting out of the shock of being called a youthful team they walked slowly to the roof. Naruto glanced at Neji who simply wore a smirk that Naruto replied to by making an obscene gesture.

After they made it to the roof silently all of them afraid to talk. They seen the green jounin waiting for them to arrive.

"Ah my youthful team! Let's begin by introducing ourselves. Tenten go first and show your youthfulness."

"Umm w-what do you mean?"

"For example my name is Maito Gai I like super-spicy curry rice and curry udon. I dislike unyouthful people and my dream is to release all of konoha's youthfulness."

"Umm my name is Tenrai Tenten. I like sesame dumplings Chinese food and astrology. I dislike umeboshi. My dream is to become hokage"

"Very good dream I will help you on your path. Okay next you Lee show us your youthfulness."

"My name is Rock Lee. I like ramen and training. I dislike people who think I can't become a ninja because I can't use chakra. My dream is to be the best taijutsu specialist ever."

"I shall help you unlock your youthfulness. Next Naruto show us how you are youthful as well."

"My name is Uzamaki Naruto. I like training and ramen. I dislike people who hate others for no reason. My dream is to be the best ninja ever."

"Good all of you have youthful dreams. Meet me at training grounds four at five o' clock." he said as he disappeared in a cloud of smoke.

"Umm strange very strange."

"Yeah let's just hope he knows what he is doing."

"Lets practice for a bit then head home who knows what he is planning might need rest."

Chapter three done took awhile becuase I just couldn't think of anything to write. Hope everyone likes it even if there isn't anything that intresting just time skips really.

Still need to go and fix the first two chapters.

I don't like writing Gai does anyone else have that problem?

Lee isn't a copy of Gai so you don't have to worry about that he found Tenten and Naruto first so he copies them more. Tenten's family name Tenrai means divine or heaven sent picked that becuase its close to what her actual name means.

Well if you notice an error or what you think is a mistake please tell me.
