Chapter Nine: Everything Naruto Could Hope For
Naruto was currently getting ready for Gennin orientation. There would be explaining what a Shonobi does. That was obvious. There would also be Team assignments. The teams would be placed into squads of four. That was goanna be fun. Naruto was having a great week. He was starting his Shonobi career and got some good news. He and Sasuke were going to be big brothers soon. Naruto had been surprised but really happy when he had found out. Even Sasuke had smiled. Kurenai and Kakashi now thought of Sasuke as their own son. Sasuke was adjusting but he was nice and polite to them. He didn't call them mother or father but he was friendly and said he would protect them. Which was something you couldn't really get out of Sasuke a lot.
Naruto stood in front of his mirror. He had gotten his Ninja cloths today. His silver spikey hair was as untamable as ever. Naruto liked it that way. He had tied his mask to his face. He had on a black t-shirt. Naruto was wearing black pants. However his favorite part of the outfit was a white trench coat. It had black flames and a black wolf on the back. Naruto looked good. Well in his opinion anyways. He would definitely blend in with the shadows. He had his headband on his forehead and had his black Strife Blade strapped to his back. He placed his kunai pouch attached to his back and made sure his book was in there. His shrikun holster was attached to his right leg. He looked like an actually Shonobi.
He grinned and left the room. He walked down the stairs towards Sasuke's room. The door was open. Naruto stepped in and saw Sasuke in his ninja outfit. He had on a gray Uchiha shirt that had a high collar. He had on gray shorts. He had his Snake Sword attached to the back to his waist that was tied with a purple rope. Sasuke had his headband on his forehead. He looked at Naruto and gave a smirk.
"Not bad dobe." He said. Naruto grinned. "You to teme." He said. "You look like a Shonobi." Sasuke nodded. He attached his kunai pouch to his left back pocket and his shrikun holster to his left leg. He looked up at Naruto.
"Let's get moving dobe." He said. Naruto nodded. They walked out of the room and closed the door. They walked downstairs and smelled Naruto's mother's cooking. Naruto grinned. He walked into the kitchen to see his mother and father and his smile immediately dropped. Kakashi had his arms around his mother's waist and was kissing her neck. Kurenai was giggling which wasn't like his mother at all. He looked at Sasuke who raised an eyebrow but didn't comment. Naruto sighed.
He cleared his throat. Kakashi pulled away instantly. His mother yelped in surprise. They both blushed and said nothing. Naruto looked at them. He didn't know what to say. Kakashi pulled up his mask then gave them his eye smile.
"Good morning boys." He said. Kurenai turned back to the stove hiding her face. Naruto sighed and decided to not say anything and sat down pulling out his book. Sasuke sat down and placed his hands together in front of his face his elbows propped on the table. Kakashi slid into his own seat and pulled out his book. Kurenai turned and placed food in front of everyone. Scrambled eggs, bacon, and pancakes. She seemed to have recovered from her embarrassment.
"Good morning you two." She said and pecked Naruto and Sasuke on the cheek and giving them a once over. "You two both look very good today." She said. "I'm glad the outfits fit." Naruto gave her his eye smile. "Thanks mom." He said. Sasuke nodded but said nothing. Kakashi smiled at them and placed up his book.
"Well." He said. "I hope you to enjoy your first day. I think mine is goanna go great." Naruto stared at his father in confusion and Sasuke raised an eyebrow. "What are you talking about dad?" He asked. "What are you doing today?" Kakashi gave an eye smile. "Nothing for you two to worry about." He said. Naruto sighed and decided to drop it. He began to eat. As usual it was delicious. Everyone began to eat too. Naruto and Sasuke finished quickly and placed their plates in the sink.
Naruto walked towards the door. "Bye mom dad." He said. "Wait a minute." Kurenai said. She stood and hugged Naruto and Sasuke. "You two have a good first day." She said. Naruto nodded. "Course mom." He said. "Bye." Sasuke nodded and said. "Later." They both left walking down the street towards the Academy. Naruto pulled out his book and began to read. They reached the Academy in no time. Naruto and Sasuke stepped in and walked towards their class. They entered and Naruto put up his book. He looked around the crowded loud room. He recognized Tenten and Hinata and pointed in their direction. Sasuke nodded and they began to make their ways towards them. They had just literally made it to the steps to go up to the desk when it happened.
"SASUKE!" Two loud voices said. Two girls threw their arms around Sasuke then glared at each other. These girls were none other than Ino Yamanaka and Sakura Haruno. The two were part of Sasuke's fan girl group. Sasuke groaned and Naruto smirked and let out a laugh he couldn't help it.
"Where do you think you're going Sasuke?" Ino asked. Sakura nodded. "Yeah." She said. "Why are you hanging out with Naruto when you can hang out with us?" They asked. Sasuke gave them a glare. "Because he isn't as annoying as you." He shrugged them off. Naruto grinned and they made their way up the stairs. They reached the desks that Hinata and Tenten were at. Naruto sat with Tenten and Sasuke with Hinata. Naruto gave Tenten a smile.
"Hey Tenten." He said. "You look great." Tenten smiled. "You look good yourself Naruto." She said. Naruto smiled. Tenten was wearing a pink sleeveless shirt and tan pants. She had her hair in her usual buns. Her headband was tied and gleaming on her forehead. He smiled at Hinata next.
"Hey Hinata." He said. "Not bad." She nodded and gave Naruto a smile. "Thanks Naruto." Hinata had become a sort of sister to Naruto. She had went to his father and asked him to teach her Ninjutsu. It turned out she had Fire and Earth Chakra. She was friendly with him but could be a little quiet like Sasuke. She was wearing a tan jacket with the Hidden Leaf Flame on the shoulder. She was wearing blue pants that matched her hair. Her headband was tied to her neck like a necklace. Naruto turned back to Tenten.
"So who do you think will all be on squads?" He asked. Tenten shrugged. "No telling." She said. "I hope it's with you or Sasuke or Hinata." She said. "I'd rather have someone I know I could fight well with." Naruto nodded. "I agree." He looked around the room at the other graduates and recognized a few. Shikamaru Nara was currently napping in the back row. Chyoji was sitting next to Shikamaru eating a bag of chips. Kiba Inazuka was sitting with his trusty pal Akamaru on his head. Next to him were Shino Abarume and Neji Hyuga. Down at in the middle was Rock Lee and Sakura and Ino.
Naruto knew those entire he just recognized and including him, Tenten, Sasuke, and Hinata were the best in the class definitely. Naruto knew that much. Rock Lee was a master of Taijustu. Naruto meant a master. He couldn't do Ninjutsu or Genjustu though. Neji was a master of the Gentle fist and had his Byakugan. He was a genius as well. Shikamaru was lazy and wasn't the best at Taijustu. He wasn't good at Genjustu however his Ninjutsu skills were good but not the best. However he was smarter than anyone is this room. He could make a strategy so well thought out you could be playing into his hands without knowing. Chyoji was the strongest in brawn. He was good at Taijustu and was also good at Ninjutsu. His Genjustu wasn't that great. Kiba was fast and strong. He was good at Ninjutsu and had okay Taijustu skills. He wasn't good at Genjustu. Shino Abruame was not good at Taijustu but was great at his family Ninjutsu. He also didn't have Genjustu talent. Sakura was okay at Taijustu and was not bad at Ninjutsu. She was a Genjustu type. However didn't know any. She knew Ninjutsu but what was only required. However she was great at Chakra control and smart. Ino was okay at Taijustu knew her family Ninjutsu and was good at Chakra control. However she wasn't good at Genjustu.
Naruto finished observing and turned to look at Tenten. She met his eyes and Naruto suddenly thought about what had happened under the tree a week ago. He wondered if maybe Sasuke was right. He had come so close to kissing her. Honestly she needed to know. However he'd need to tell her somewhere privately. Tenten looked at him and blushed. She could obviously tell what he had been thinking about. Well part of it anyways.
"What?" She asked. "Nothing." Naruto said. "I need to talk to you later." Tenten nodded. "Okay." She said. Naruto turned back to the front. The door opened and Naruto watched as Iruka-sensei entered the room. The class got quiet as Iruka gave them a smile.
"Hello everyone." He said. "I hope you have all been well. I'm pleased to see that all of you had made Gennin. Your road as a ninja will be a long one and a very dangerous…" Naruto stopped listening. He leaned back in his seat. He wondered who his team would be. He hoped it would be a good team. He really didn't know what to expect but he hoped he'd have a squad who wouldn't hate him. It would suck if he did. He sighed, another problem about being a Jinchuriki. Naruto figured he could make a list a mile long if he thought about how bad it was to be a Jinchuriki. He suddenly felt himself losing conciseness…
Naruto woke up in a sewer like place that he recognized immediately. He jumped up to see the Fox staring back at him. Naruto smirked as he saw the familiar glare.
"Same old greeting Fox." He said. "A glare. Now why did you call me her exactly?" The fox stared then grinned.
Same old Naruto he said. Always not showing the respect that others deserve. Naruto laughed. "Respect?" He said. "Respect is earned you stupid Fox. Now if that's all you need I'm kind of busy at the moment." He went to leave. Wait Naruto. The fox said. I have a simple question for you. Naruto turned to look at him. "What is it?" He asked. The fox smiled. If you could call it that.
Well it's simple really. The fox said. You believe you can bring peace to the world. The hatred you believe you can stop it. How can you bear that much hatred? You hate Itachi after all. You're training to eventually kill him. How is that peaceful? Answer that. Naruto stared then frowned.
"I don't hate Itachi." He said. "I plan to find out why he killed his family. I want to know the truth. Then I can see if I can help Sasuke forget it. However I do know that if Itachi really plans to kill Sasuke then I'll do anything to stop him. Even if that means to kill Itachi. My friends are important. I'll do anything for them." He said looking at the Fox. The fox sighed. You're a fool Naruto. Naruto laughed.
"You said that last time." He said. "Why do you want to know anyways?" The fox gave a smirk. I was just curious. I have my answer now leave. Naruto rolled his eyes. "Well since you asked so nicely." He said. "I'll be going." He ran towards the exit and everything went dark.
Smack! Naruto yelped and sat up quickly to see Iruka glaring at him. Oh great. He thought. Stupid Fox. Of all the times for the fox to talk to him it had to have been now. Why now? The fox had a motive he could tell. However what and why? He didn't have time to think about it now though.
"Naruto pay attention!" Iruka shouted. "Today's an important day and your napping?! Well if I see it again I'll have to talk to your mother." Naruto flinched and the class snickered. They wouldn't be snickering if they had a scary mom like his.
"Okay Iruka-sensei it won't happen again." He said. Iruka sighed and walked down the aisle back to the front of the room. He held up his clipboard and began to name off teams.Tenten placed her hand on his shoulder.
"What was that about?" She said. "You don't fall asleep when it's important." Naruto turned to her. "Nothing just tired." He lied. "Didn't get much sleep last night." Tenten looked unconvinced but nodded. Naruto cursed under his breath. She could read him easily.
"Team seven." Iruka called. "Will be Naruto Hattake, Sasuke Uchiha, Tenten Rriai, and Hinata Hyuga." Naruto's eyes widened. This was his team? He laughed it was everything he could of hoped for. Naruto grinned in happiness. They were goanna kick ass.
"Team Eight." Iruka shouted. "Will be Neji Hyuga, Rock Lee, Kiba Inazuka, and Sakura Haruno." Naruto knew that would be a good team. Iruka continued.
"Team Nine." He said. "Will be Ino Yamanaka, Shikamaru Nara, Chyoji, and Shino Abruame."
Naruto smirked. He was glad with the turn out. Now if only they had a badass teacher. Then they would be all set. Naruto grinned. This was goanna be great.
