I Do Not Own Naruto

Naruto the Crimson Chain Wielder

In the classroom on the day of the team placements, Naruto and all his friends couldn't wait to see whose team they were on. Naruto and his friends were sitting at their usual spot in the class with Shino, and Hinata said she had to go to the bathroom.

'With that situation with Mizuki, I didn't confess to him, I should do it after school today.' Hinata thinks with a blush as she washed up and thought of how she was going to do it. 'I'm ready to do it, I will after school, I could ask him to take a walk with me and go to the Hokage Monument.'

Hinata has now made her mind up about her little plan and starts to head into the classroom to her seat next to Naruto. What she didn't know is that as she moves towards Naruto, Sakura is telling everyone in the village that Naruto is a demon and that he should not be trusted. Some seem to listen to her while some of the ones who had really changed for the better defended him. This seems to spread as the others, who seem to listen to the ones who say he is not the demon but a good boy.

This makes Sakura really angry, She stomps off going home because even with the forbidden scroll she didn't have enough chakra to use anything in it. 'Damn these stupid villagers, they should be agreeing and praising me, not calling me a liar. Now Sasuke-kun won't like me anymore.'

Hinata sits down next to the curious looking Naruto. "So, what took you so long. Thinking about me,?" Naruto asks teasingly. She was gone for a while and they never hide anything from each other, so he's really curious.

"O nothing Naruto-kun" she says blushing a bit, only serving to make him more suspicious.

"Aww, please tell me, I promise I wouldn't tell anyone else." Naruto pleads making his best puppy dog eyes look.

Seeing the really cute look, she is forced to hold herself to her seat to stop herself from glomping him at how cute he is. "Sorry, but you'll find out later Naruto-kun, I promise." Hinata says while struggling to hold her resolve under his puppy dog eyes looking right at her.

"Hmph" Naruto just looks away and pouts weakening her resolve some more but she set up a perfect plan to break it to him and she wants it to be perfect.

"I'm sure she will tell you Naruto, just later," Shino replies, knowing what she is talking about and chuckles a bit at the interaction.

"Oh come on, you guys should know most of all that I hate surprises. I can't wait that long." He complains childishly which only makes them and some others who overheard them chuckle more.

They are all brought out of their thoughts when they hear, "good morning class, or should I say genin." Iruka says proudly, this was a fun group of students to teach.
"Alright every one I just want to say I'm very proud of all of you, and it was an honor to teach you all. Now lets start the team placements."

"Team one will be" (I'm skipping until team 7 like I did earlier)

"Team Seven will be Naruto Uzumaki, Kiba Inuzuka, and Sai under the jonin sensei of Anko Mitarashi." Naruto and Kiba are happy to be on the same team and Naruto is happy about having Anko as their sensei but he is a little sad that Hinata and Shino are not on his team, also he has never heard of the other person on their team.

"Hey, Iruka-sensei who is Sai?" Kiba asks, interrupting Iruka, probably wondering the same thing that Naruto is.

"Well there weren't enough students to pass the test, so Hokage-sama had found a suitable genin level ninja and added him to your team."

"O, ok."

"Team eight will be Shino Aburame, Hinata Hyuga, and Sasuke Uchiha under the jonin sensei Kurenai Yuuhi. Team nine is already made, so Team ten will by Ino Yamanaka, Choji Akamichi, and Shikamaru Nara under the jonin sensei Asuma Sarutobi." Iruka finishes.

Hinata and Shino are happy to at least be on each others team but are a little sad that Naruto isn't with them. They are also not too happy at having Sasuke on their team and are at least hoping that their sensei will keep him in line. They both already knew a little about their sensei hearing that she is the genjutsu mistress of Konoha and Kurenai had brought Hinata to class sometimes.

Ino Yamanaka is a little bit sad at not being on Sasuke's team but has been having some second thoughts of pursing him anyway. She just hopes that her other teammates are at least nice to hang out around. Choji and Shikamaru are happy too, they are just hoping to get along with Ino, while Shikamaru hopes that she is not bossy.

Sasuke is absolutely indifferent to his teammates, just hoping they won't get in the way of his ambitions.

"All right everyone wait here for your senseis to pick you up, and good luck in the future and keep the village as your number one thing to protect." Iruka says as he leaves the school.

"Alright, I'm gonna give all the gakis my super awesome entrance, you guys should go in first and then I'll come in." Anko says with one of the biggest grins ever on her face..

"Ughh, fine lets go then." Kurenai says, as she leaves the Hokage's office.

'This is going to be so awesome, I can't wait to see the looks on Naruto-kun's face when he sees my amazing entrance.' Anko thinks to herself happily, while hoping he really thinks its cool.

As the students are all waiting, a new kid comes into the room. He is a deathly pale white, while wearing black ninja pants on and he wears a short black jacket with red straps. Also on his back is a small back pack on. On his back is tanto, The rest of his outfit consisted of a shinobi sandals and gloves with his index fingers and thumbs exposed.

"I am Sai." The boy says simply. "I am to be placed on a team with Naruto Uzumaki and Kiba Inuzuka. Where are they?" He questions even more stoically than Shino was before he met Naruto.

"That would be me, I'm Naruto and the guy with the dog on his head it Kiba Inuzuka, and the dog would be Akamaru. Nice to meet you Sai." Naruto responds kindly while looking over the new genin.

"Yea, its nice to meet you as well." Kiba responds also, doing the same as Naruto is. Sai just nods and sits down to wait for the team's sensei. Both of them find him a bit weird and especially that he is wearing a jacket that only covers half of his torso but they won't judge and they hope they can get along.

Shortly a man with brown eyes, short, black spiky hair and a beard. His clothing consisted of the standard Konoha ninja uniform with the sleeves rolled up half way, a flak jacket, regular shinobi sandals and forehead protector. He also wore the Twelve Guardian Ninja sash that had the kanji for Fire marked on it around his waist. "Alright Team 10, your with me, I am Asuma Sarutobi.

Next to him was one of Naruto's old senseis, Kurenai Yuuhi, and she was staring at him. He looked into her eyes and she looked back and waved happily at him, which he returned quickly. "I am Kurenai Yuuhi, and I am the jonin sensei for Team eig-"

She was cut off by two kunai flying through the window and sticking into the ceiling with a banner attached to them. A black blur then shot through the already broken window and landed in front of the banner that read 'The great, the powerful, the sexy and single Anko Mitarashi' revealing the jonin with a shit eating grin on her face.
"I am Anko Mitarashi, and I am Team seven's jonin sensei." She says loudly only to find the students staring at her like she has a second head.

"Woo hoo, that was awesome Anko-sensei, it was perfect." Naruto yells out and starts clapping making the woman blush and smile. He was also happy the she had finally covered herself up more so that no other guys could see her. That thought got him to blush a little as he was quite possessive of the women he likes.

'Ha, I knew he would like it,' Anko thought to herself, "Thanks gaki, now gather the team and meet in front of training ground 44 in 30 minutes."

She then jumps out the same window leaving a somewhat fuming Kurenai because she was interrupted." As I was saying before, I am Kurenai Yuuhi and I am Team eight's jonin sensei. Come with me." She says while walking away as Naruto and his teammates all jump out the broken window, but not before Hinata tells him to meet her later.

"Alright guys we have about five more minutes to get their lets speed up a bit." Naruto says while taking charge and both comply with little thought.

'Strange, I already feel at east in his presence.' Sai thinks to himself. Danzo is his master, Sai is from Danzo's ROOT program and is supposed to only do what Danzo commands. However, Naruto's orders remind him of his lost brother Shin. 'His voice doesn't have any type of fear laced into his words to force me to follow, strange indeed.' He finishes his thoughts as they make it to where Anko told them too.

'Not bad, the gakis made it in time, not too surprising with Naruto on this team. He is almost jonin level already.' Anko says mentally. "Well good work getting here, we will introduce ourselves and then be done for the day, you guys will have a test tomorrow after all." She says with a grin that makes them all shiver. "I'll go first, I am Anko Mitarashi, I like my friends Kurenai-chan, Hana-chan, and Yuugao-chan, and Tsume-chan, I also love to eat dango and drink sake. I dislike perverts, rapists, traitors, child beaters, and any one who judges people before even knowing them. My dream is to one day settle down with someone I love and have a big family."

"I'll go next then, my name is Naruto Uzumaki, I like foxes, ramen, my friends, the village, kenjutsu, fuinjutsu, and training. I dislike child beaters, rapists, and people who threaten my friends and my village. My dream is to be a legendary ninja, know all over the world when I grow up, I also want to rebuild my clan and have a nice family with the ones I love." Naruto finishes determinedly getting smiles from Anko and Kiba, while Sai seems a bit conflicted.

"Alright, names Kiba Inuzuka, I like my friends, dogs, my companion Akamaru, and training. I dislike people who hurt animals, and people who screech and are too loud, it hurts my ears. I also dislike traitors and people who threaten my friends and village. My dream is to be the best Inuzuka clan head and to have a family." Kiba responds.

"My name is Sai, I don't really know what I like and I don't dislike anything. I don't think I have any dreams." Sai finishes stoically while doing his best to think of something to say.

'Weird' everyone thinks together as they slowly come to terms with their weird student/teammate.

"Uh, ok then. Like I said go home and rest up for tomorrow you will all be having a test to see if I will train you or send you back to the academy crying. Meet here at at six am tomorrow, ja ne." She says and shunshins out of there.

"Alright then... I guess we better prepare for this test then, don't worry about it though I'm sure if we work together we can pass the test." Naruto says and grins when he sees both of them nod. "Alright then, go home and rest and remember to get up early to get a good breakfast for tomorrow. I'll meet you guys here tomorrow." Naruto says and also shunshins out of the area to his apartment to get ready to meet up with Hinata.

On his way over to the spot that he was asked to meet up with Hinata, Naruto begins to think of how he will tell her and the other women he is interested in about the CRA. 'I wonder how they'll take it, I hope they don't try to beat me into the ground. I do remember the time Anko caught me staring at her though..." He wasn't hit or anything, just tortured with her teasing, 'I wonder which I could stand more, beatings or Anko's teasing?' He ponders seriously on his journey.

In the distance he hears his name and looks to his beautiful friend coming towards him, "I thought we could talk a walk, the two of us, we will be much busier now that we are ninja so lets have some fun." Hinata says and then they begin their walk towards the Hokage Monument.

As they approach it Naruto gets nervous, choosing to start his explanation of the CRA, "Hinata." he says getting her attention. "I have something to say and something to ask. You already know I have a bloodline, the Chakra Chains bloodline which makes me the last known member of the Uzumaki clan, so in order for the Uzumaki clan to survive I have to have multiple wives..." He says letting the information sink in, He then starts to get red and stutters out, "I have developed more than friend feelings for you over the long time we have known each other. I would like to date you but I had to let you know about that before we went any farther."

Looking over to her face he sees her looking at him with a serious face, one that didn't show any anger. Then, she just smiled at him and began speaking, "Well I guess I never thought of it like that, but I have had strong feelings for you and I know that we can make things work out." Hinata says almost tearing up at the special moment they are sharing together.

"There's a little more I have to tell you." He says as he hugs her, hoping that she really understands what he has to do. He really does love her and he could imagine himself with her forever. "I am required to have at least five to seven wives in the future. I hope that you can still be with me, and I hope you can accept the others that I may come to love as well. I love you too much." He says as he tightens his grip on her.

She isn't too surprised at what was said as she was taught about how clans work and knew that he was the last of his. She also knows he will treat any woman that he comes to love equally. "Ok, Naruto-kun I can accept that as long as you treat us all as equals, I love you too." She says and quickly and passionately kisses him on the lips.

After that they sit on the fourth's head and watch the sunset and have a good conversation, both of them leave the mountain as happy as they could possibly get and head home for the night.

The next morning Naruto wakes up with a huge smile on his face, having remembered what happened yesterday. 'O, I better see Kyoshi-chan too.' He says and enters his mind scape. He begins searching for her and sees her sleeping in a hammock in the forest. He gently creeps up to her and sees how cute she looks while sleeping and almost decided to let her sleep but he kisses her on the lips anyway.

She begins to open her eyes and kisses him back. "hmmm, I could wake up this way everyday." She says suggestively with a genuine smile on her face. "What's up Naruto-kun?" She asks curiously as she can tell he looks a bit nervous.

"I have talked to Hinata-chan and she has agreed to try and work things out, so I have come to you to tell you that I love you and I would like it if you could also work with us to become a happy family." He says shocking her, but she lets a few tears drop form her beautiful face and hugs him tightly.

"Do you even have to ask, of course I'll be with you. Forever." She answers with as much conviction as she can muster making him smile happily.

"Great." Is all he says before kissing her again. "I couldn't imagine a world without having you right next to me in it, Kyoshi-chan. I wouldn't be able to go on at all if I didn't have you to be there for me." He said honestly while Kyoshi cries at his loving words to her. "Sorry, but I have to go now and get ready for my test in an hour, I will see you later Kyoshi-chan."

"I couldn't live without you either and I know you will treat everyone the same, so I can agree to let you have others, but not too many. Bye bye Naruto-kun" She replies happily while making sure he understood not to have too many women. 'This is the best day in all my years of life.'

The next morning Naruto heads to the training ground that the team was supposed to meet at and is alone, being a couple minutes early. With his enhanced hearing he hears something flying towards him, with his eyes widened he moves his head out of the way.

"Not bad Naru-kuuuun." His sensei and hopefully girlfriend later, Anko calls out. "Although I'm not really surprised your jonin level with all the training Nai-chan, Yuu-chan, Tsume-chan, and I gave you all those years ago. Not to mention the training you did on your own during the academy." She says while grinning wildly.

"Can't you ever just say hello?" He asks with some fake irritation but then smiles with her. "Anyway, looks like the team is all here now." He says and just when he does, Sai and Kiba appear at his sides.

"Hmph, yea yea, well it looks like you would make a good team captain Naruto, what do you think Sai, Kiba?" Anko asks, as she knows that he is the strongest and that Kiba would already follow his orders.

"I would follow him anytime and any place!" Kiba says while grinning with Akamaru barking in agreement, "What do you think Sai, Naruto-taicho has a nice ring to it."

Sai seems to really think about this for a minute, "I will agree with your judgment, Kiba. I will help you out Naruto-taicho." He says calmly and with honesty. He knew that he shouldn't but Danzo has always be harsh on him and the others in ROOT, taking their emotions away and making them mindless drones.

Sai, however, was lucky to not have been too far gone and he didn't completely turn into the darkness to be able to have a shot at some amount of normalcy. He would much rather prefer to follow his brother Shin's ideals, that he sees in Naruto.

"Then its official, I will be the captain of this team in Anko's absence." Naruto replies confidently making the others smile.

"Alright then team, let me explain your test to you." Anko replies with a grin that disturbs them a bit. "This test will not be very easy, what you are going to do, is find a man named Kakashi Hatake. Once you do you will have to retrieve and bring to me his orange book. Is that understood?" Anko asks seriously. "You will have until the end of today to achieve it, if you do it quickly we will do our first mission, now get to it." Then she shunshins away not giving them any other help with the test she wanted to give them a hard test after all.

"Alright team, first off do any of you know a Kakashi Hatake?" Naruto asks as he takes charge of the situation, seeing that they named him captain.

"He is called the Copy Cat Ninja of Konoha, said to have copied over one thousand jutsu. He has silver gravity defying hair, he wears his headband on a diagonal with it covering his left eye. He also has a black ninja mask covering his face up to the middle of his nose. He possesses a sharingan in the eye socket he covers but I don't know how he got it." Sai informs them having to know all the high level shinobi of there village and the others. He didn't think that he should have said all the information, but Danzo said to help in anyway he could and he didn't mind helping the blond for some reason.

"Good work Sai, any idea of where we could find him or how attached he is to this book of his." Naruto replies kindly to his new teammate, at first he really seemed weird but with that help, he would give him a chance.

Sai got a bit conflicted at Naruto's praise as he hadn't had much of it at all, but he quickly shook it off. "It is said that he always has that book with him so he is probably very attached to it. As to where he would be, I don't know."

"Alright, do you know about him at all Kiba?" Naruto questions his other teammate.

"No idea Naruto-taicho, sorry."

"Don't worry about it, lets just head back to the village, we can then question people for information as he seems to be a pretty famous guy and its all we can really do for now so lets get to it." Naruto commands calmly but not forcefully.

"Hai taicho" and they all get on their way.

The team is now searching for this man named Kakashi Hatake throughout the village. They decided together that they should never split up to cover more ground. Naruto left a wireless headset with each of them so he would be informed if they found something and vise versa. He also made clones and henged them into random civilians and began asking around.

He then suddenly thought that he could just ask the Hokage about Kakashi and went on his way there, hoping that the old man would give him something good. He immediately sets out there and gets their in only about ten minutes which is impressive with him starting at the other side of the village.

Once entering his office, he greets his secretary friend and he decided to not give away too much information as he didn't think he would get help if the old man knew it was his test. He looks up to see the old man sitting behind the desk like he usually is and asks, "Hey jiji, I had heard some rumors about a guy named Kakashi Hatake. I heard he was a really good nin at ninjutsu and I was wondering if he could show me a thing or two." He asked trying to sound convincing, which he did with all of the things he went through in life.

"Kakashi you say, hmm I could probably point you to several locations in the village," he says while not seeing that question as being strange knowing their sensei. He had already had an idea of her test and he decided to help out. He then gets a map out and points to three places that he knows Kakashi likes to visit.

"Alright, thanks old man." Naruto says as he shunshins out of the room and starts to head to the first location while informing his team members. "Hey guys I have three places to look, I asked the Hokage. Kiba head over to the book store on the west side of the village, Sai go to the bars on the eastern edge, and I will head to training ground seven. If you don't spot him in either of those places meet me at training ground seven, you guys got it?" He says speaking into the headset he is wearing.

"Got it Naruto-taicho, I'm heading to the book store now, good luck." Kiba replies.

"Yes taicho, I will head to the park now." Sai replies.

"Good luck Team." Naruto says as he gets to the location of training ground seven.

Nearing training ground seven, Naruto goes into stealth mode. He jumps to the trees and suppresses his chakra so he is not discovered. Looking around the field, the only things he can see are three training posts, and a lake on the right side of the field. 'I don't really see anything, but maybe I haven't checked enough yet.' he thinks to himself.

As he is restarting his search, Kiba and Said both are having similar results in their searches. They decide that they will look around for about five more minutes and head to training ground seven and regroup with Naruto.

Back with Naruto, it has now been about three more minutes and still nothing until out of the corner of his eye, he sees a man. He can only see his back but he had the same type of hair that Sai and described to him. 'This could be him, lets check it out.' He moves to a better location as quietly as he could and saw the same diagonal headband and mask from the description. He was just standing in front of some kind of stone with his hands in his pockets looking depressed. "Hey, guys I got eyes on the man matching our target's information. He is at the training grounds start heading here. I don't know when he will be leaving, so really run to get here. What were gonna do is have both of you attack him from the east and west while I jump in and attack him from behind, you guys understand the plan?" He says quietly so he doesn't give off his position behind Kakashi who is really lost in thought.

"I got, it loud and clear. Let's do this." Kiba says with his normal enthusiasm.

"Understood taicho." Sai responds after him while thinking that the plan is a really good one.

"Good, how much time will it take you guys to get here." Their captain asks again.

"five minutes tops." Kiba replies.

"I'll be there in two." Sai responds.

"All right, we'll wake up for you Kiba, we are all in this together. There are no lone wolves on this test." Naruto responds with his normal leader like voice which gives them extra confidence.

"Hai taicho" They reply both sounding a bit excited at this. After all, it is just the beginning of their first mission together.
