Last Time…
"I pity the person, who is going to be placed on Team 2," Shino stated in his usual monotone voice while interrupting Naruto's thoughts.
Naruto raised an eyebrow at Shino asking a silent question. Shino explained further, "According to my father, Team 2 also known as Team Demon, had their third squad member quit the Shinobi career as he could not handle them anymore and was about to crack. So someone from this class is going to be placed on their team."
"I hope that its n-not o-one of us," Hinata stuttered out. Hinata is slowly improving with her stuttering problem with the help from both Naruto and Shino.
"It won't matter as long as you two end up on the same squad," Naruto said in her usual calm voice. It was very rare that Naruto ever gets angry, but when it happens it is scary as hell.
Kenpachi and the rest of them are not as bad as most people believe they are. The only reason that she knows this is because they all live in the same apartment complex. In fact, Naruto has a feeling in her gut telling her that she will be the one placed on that team.

Present Time…
Everyone was silent, expect for the moans of the newly made Genins of Team 1 were heard. But they soon quieted down when Iruka –sensei glared at them. Then Iruka –sensei suddenly paled and looked very nervous and scared as he read on, "Since Team 2 has an open spot on their team that needs to be filled. Uzumaki Naruto, congrats and good luck."
As soon as Iruka –sensei said Naruto's name, cries of out rage were heard from the Uchiha's fan club as they protest. They finally quieted down when Iruka told them to shut up and sit down.
Iruka opened his mouth to say something when Sasuke interrupted him, "Why does the dobe get placed on that team when they could have the last Uchiha?"
His fan girls nodded their heads in agreement with what Sasuke said. They believed that Team 2 should be honored to have the last Uchiha on their team.
"BAKA! Team 2 is also known as Team Demon is well known for breaking Genins and also there were other Uchihas that were placed on that team and they were sent to the local nut house as they lost their minds to insanity after only a month of being on that team," Naruto explained as she turned and glared at the Uchiha, who looked shocked at the info that he just received. While the rest of the class looked shocked that Naruto had lost her cool as she is well known to keep a level head and is rarely angered.
Shino decided to add something, "According to Father, the sensei of Team 2, Kenpachi Zaraki, is the reason for Iwa wishing that our Fourth Hokage would come back to life."
Iruka decided that was enough talking and interrupted, "While all of that was said is true. We need to continue with the team placements. Naruto, you go and meet your new sensei and team at Training Ground 44. And good luck."
Naruto stood up and nodded to Shino and Hinata before leaving the classroom. She did notice the glares that followed her as she walked out of the classroom from the Uchiha and his fan club. Sometimes it gets so annoying that Naruto just want to unleash Kurama upon them.
(Scene Break)
Naruto made her way to Training Ground 44 as known as The Forest of Death. She knew her way around in the forest as she had taken to training with Kenpachi and the others sometimes when she was bored or when her two friends were busy with their duties in their clans.
Finally, after following the sounds of katanas striking each other, Naruto had located her new team. As she entered the clearing, Naruto saw that Ikkaku and Yumichika were sparing with each other, while Zaraki was sleeping over by the side of the clearing and Yachiru was playing with some flowers and watching the spar at the same time.
When both Ikkaku and Yumichika did not notice her presence, she decided to settle down on the side of the clearing for a nap as she was still tired from being woken up by Yumichika just before six in the morning. Whenever Team 2 was not on a mission, The Male Siren of Konoha also known as Yumichika would wake everyone up in a five mile radius with his screams of horror each morning when he looks in a mirror and sees his messy hair. Naruto, Ikkaku, and Kenpachi already went through hundreds of earplugs. Naruto even tried silencing seals, but Yumichika's screams broke through those almost immediately. They all envy Yachiru, who can sleep through the noise.
Suddenly, Naruto felt something bouncing on her stomach. Opening her eyes, Naruto saw it was Yachiru grinning at her.
"Hi, Sharky –chan!" Yachiru cheerfully chirped.
"Hello Yachiru –chan," Naruto greeted back. Yachiru was just like the child like Nel, back in Los Noches.
"Good to see you awake," Zaraki said in his rough voice. "Now, we can go on missions. Let's go!"
Ikkaku and Yumichika exchanged annoyed looks before Ikkaku spoke up, "Ah, Captain, the Hokage made it a rule that we have to wait until the next day to take missions of any sort, whenever we get a new teammate."
"Damn!" Zaraki swore, before stalking to the middle of the clearing while taking out his Zanpaku-to. "Uzumaki, its time to spar!"
"Very well, Captain," Naruto answered as she pulled out Tiburon from its sheath and got ready to spar.

In the afternoon of the next day…
Team 2 entered the Mission office at the same moment as Team 7.
"Finally pass a team, Kakashi?" Zaraki asked as he eyed the Genins. "They look weak, especially the girl. Does she even eat?"
"I'm on a diet!" Sakura screeched angrily, while the Inner Sakura declared, "They are just jealous that they did not get us on their team!"
Ikkaku laughed as Yumichika snickered and said, "That is so stupid. I never met a decent Kunoichi who was on a diet. Although, most Kunoichis have a figure like Naruto here."
It was true; Naruto was well developed than most of her class, except Hinata. As most of the girls in her class were on a diet in hopes of catching the attention of a certain Uchiha.
"The dobe is fat!" Sakura screeched as she pointed at Naruto.
The men of Team Demon began to slowly moving away from their female teammate in fear as the air in the room began to chill and a slight pressure began to build. Naruto was releasing KI as she glared at the pink haired girl with the intent of drowning the girl. Never in her life, whether it was in this life or her previous, that anyone called her fat, if they did, no one would have found their body. But it was broken up by the Hokage as he coughed, much to the relief of others, except for Sai as he did not truly understand what was going on, but thankfully, he made a note to never call a girl fat.
Kakashi stepped up to the table, "Hokage –Sama, I would like to request a D –rank mission for Team 7."
Struggling not to smile, Sarutobi began to list off the choices of missions that they could pick from.
Kakashi spoke up, "Hokage –sama, I think that we will take the dog walking mission."
The room shook with the laughter of Team 2, except for Naruto, who just chuckled at the shocked and or stunned expressions of two of members of Team 7. Apparently, Sasuke and Sakura thought they would get a higher ranking mission.
Zaraki stepped up and asked, "Old man Hokage, Team 2 would like to request a mission."
The Genins of Team 7 looked shocked at the disrespect that Zaraki was showing to the Hokage. But they were too scared to do and or say anything about.
The Hokage looked through his pile of scrolls, before getting the one that he saved for Zaraki and his team and handed it to the said giant, "Here you go, Kenpachi. A C -rank mission to guard the borders between Kumo and us."
"Why do those losers get a better mission than us!? I'm the last Uchiha and I demand a higher ranking mission!" Sasuke yelled at the Hokage, while Sakura nodded her head in agreement. While everyone else in the room wanted to strangle the spoiled rotten brat for yelling at the Hokage.
Team 2 just rolled their eyes when they noticed that Kakashi did not punish his genin for the disrespect.
The Hokage glared at the so called last Uchiha as he answered, "I rather have Iwa invade Konoha, then let Team 2 do a D –rank mission as an invasion would involve less paperwork to deal with. You have no right to demand anything from me, Uchiha. Now get lost."
As both teams exited the Hokage Tower, the Hokage called over one of ANBU and told him to bring Sasuke Uchiha to T&I for physic evaluation to determine if the boy is stable enough to continue to be a Shinobi.
AN: I hope that you all like this chapter. Please review and tell me what you all think of it. Have a nice day, everyone.
