The New Team 7 (Junpei's POV):

I continued to make my way towards the ninja academy, with only me and my thoughts to accompany me. It's a relatively nice day out today. The streets of The Hidden Leaf Village were average, not too crowded but not too silent, and you could just vaguely hear the sound of the birds in the sky.

You must become stronger my conscious said to me, taunting me, telling me to be better. You know you want to. You know you have to. You know you must.

Want.

Have.

Must.

Those are the three words that keep rolling in my head like a non-stop roller coaster ride, telling me, ordering me, taunting me to become better.

Then the images of three of my siblings came into play: Yosuke, Sora, and Mikoto; all of them, looking down on me.

"Hmm, maybe when you earn the Sharingan, you'll finally stop being as weak as Kiyomi-chan, physically and mentally."

"Hey, Junepi, wanna learn a new trick with the Sharingan? Oh wait, you don't have it, now do you?"

"Until you gain the Sharingan, you and Kiyomi will never be one of us."

The cruel voices of my older brothers and older sister haunted me. Sharingan this, Sharingan, that. When will they stop?

But then, the image of my father, Sasuke, started to appear in my thoughts.

"Who do you think you are? You'll never be a true Uchiha. You're a disgrace to the whole clan!"

No. No. No! NO! I will become stronger! Sakio Uchiha is NOT a disgrace.

But then, I heard a voice in the distance, which broke me and my thoughts away from each other.

"Hey! Junpei!" The person giggled. I turned around. Oh no, another crazed fan girl, Suri Lee. It's bad enough I had to deal with crazed fan girls, but Suri was a bit too much. She's so cheerful and clingy to the point where it's slightly disturbing. But at least she's somewhat sane, unlike some others I've faced. In fact, she's more sane than 60% of all my fan girls put together. Also, I secretly enjoyed her company, even though I thought her cheery approach on everything got tiring after a while sometimes.

"Hi, Junpei!" Suri bowed. "Nice day, huh?" Suri said, trying to make small talk.

"Yeah, it's okay, I guess," I mumbled, rubbing my hand against my neck.

"Hey, woudn't it be cool if we were in the same squad, Jun-san?"

I was surprised. Jun-san? Since when did anyone give me that title? Why would Suri give me that title anyway?

A faint sound then caught my ears, which Suri must have heard as well. "Did you hear that?" Suri asked.

The I discovered the noise was coming from someone running, a blur of beige, red, and orange. As the person came closer to view, I discovered that they had a familiar vibe to them. Wait, is that…?

BAM!

The figure crashed into me ad a breakneck speed. When I opened my eyes, I noticed it was none other than Sakio Uzumaki.

"He he… oops… sorry, Junpei…" Sakio chucked sheepishly.

"Just get off me." I said, very straight forward and annoyed.

Sakio got off of the top of my body, and soon, I got off the ground to brush myself off. When I looked over, I saw that Sakio and Suri had already started their own conversation, which, to be honest, made me a bit uneasy.

"Hi, Suri!"

"Hey Sakio," Suri smiled.

"You heading over to the Ninja Academy?"

"You bet!" Suri gave Sakio a thumbs up.

"Oh man, oh man, oh man," a woman dashed toward our direction. "Oh man, I am Soo late!"

"Hey, what's wrong?" Suri reached out to the woman.

The woman had light, spiky violet hair tied up in a ponytail, with light and fair skin. Her outfit consisted of a chunin vest (in which underneath was a long sleeved midnight blue shirt), camo khakis, and basic konoichi shoes.

The woman's eyes widened in amusement, then she smiled.

"Say," she looked to all of us, then pointed to us. "Aren't you Uchiha Junpei, Uzumaki Sakio, and Lee Suri?" she asked.

"Yeah!" Sakio said in amazement.

"How'd you know?" Suri asked.

Then, the woman backed up to face all three of us more properly. This was followed by a quick bow with a prideful grin, along with her giving us a thumbs up.

"Because I am Nyala Hatake, and I just so happen to be your sensei."

The New Teams 8 and 9:

A tall, slender woman with wavy black hair stood impatiently while tapping her foot repeatedly on the concrete ground while she waited for her new students to show up.

"Where are those kids anyway?" the woman asked herself. "They should have been here by now."

"Calm down, Botan," a woman said who was right beside Jin (who was there with them early). This woman had light, chocolate brown hair tied up into a single odango bun with a pigtail hanging below it and darker brown eyes which were covered by see-through delicate glasses. Her body figure was shorter, slightly fuller and had more of a curvy texture to it, but not by much. "They probably just got delayed."

"Hmm, I highly doubt it, Maeda." Botan responded to her mellow reaction to the situation.

"Hey, isn't that the other two of your students in the distance, Botan-sensei?" Jin pointed into the distance.

Looking at the direction of where Jin was pointing, and sure enough, Botan saw six figures in the distance.

"About time they got here." Botan grumbled under her breath.

"Sorry we're late." A blue haired boy apologized. "We got kind of side-tracked."

"Hmm, I see." Botan mumbled. "And you are Ichiro Uzumaki, if I can recall correctly?"

"Yeah, that's right." Ichiro smiled, which caused Botan to smile as well.

"I'm Botan Yuhi," Botan formally introduced herself. "And this is Maeda Umino. We will be your sensei's."

"Cool!" Hiroto exclaimed. "We both get hotties for sensei's!"

With that, Yume punched Hiroto on the side of the arm, causing Hiroto to yelp slightly.

"Kiyomi Uchiha, Ichiro Uzumaki, and Kenji Akimichi." Maeda pointed to the three. "You will be my students."

Kenji blushed as Maeda pointed to him while he and his new teammates followed Maeda to her left side.

"On the other hand, Hiroto Masaharu and Yume Inuzuka, you two will be with me and Jin Lee." Botan said in a calm voice.

"Isn't this great?" Jin nearly shouted. "I get to have two very excellent people for teammates: one from the Masaharu family and the other from the Inuzuka Family!" Jin was now in the middle of Hiroto and Yume. "I can automatically tell that we're going to be the best of teammates!"

"Yeah, sure Jin." Hiroto laughed subtly but sheepishly.

And with that said and done, both teams left on their separate ways to begin the day.

The New Team 10:

"Hmm, so you guys are my students, aren't you?" Shikamaru Nara glanced over each of his new students carefully and observantly.

"You," Shikamaru pointed to the student on the left. "You're Yosuke Uchiha."

"Of course." Yosuke said as-a-matter-of-fact-ly while Sango looked over to him blushing and daydreaming a number of possible different scenarios.

"Hmm, quite the cocky one, I've heard." Shikamaru said to Yosuke's face, which must have hurt his ego mentally.

"And you," this time, Shikamaru pointed to the student in the middle, causing Sango to slightly become surprised when he called out her name.

"You're Sango Yamanaka." Shikamaru pointed out. "You're mom and I were I the same squad, you know."

"R-really?" Sango started feeling both prideful and taken away by that statement. Her mom, Ino Yamanaka, worked beside her sensei?

"Yeah, but I can definitely recall that she was far less of a daydreamer." Shikamaru stated frankly, which caused Sango to mumble a small "Oh" and lowered her head.

"And last, but not least, Shigeru Aburame." Shikamaru pointed to the final student in his squad, who's eyes were covered by thick glasses, but light enough that you could hardly see his deep green eyes.

"Yes." Shigeru said to his sensei. "I am Shigeru."

"The son of that bug dude Shino," Shikamaru mumbled.

"Now promise me this, Shigeru: unless it's for battle, you don't get any of your bugs near me or my stuff, got it?" Sango questioned her teammate.

"Alright, but don't come crying to me when you don't know what type of bug slapped you across the head last night and the poison is starting to get inside your bloodstream." Shigeru agreed, while at the same time scaring Sango, which caused her to go pale and hid behind Yosuke.

"Alright, alright, already." Shikamaru broke up the dispute between Sango and Shigeru before it got too out of hand. "Break it up you guys. Now, if you don't mind, we have some training to do."
