A kunai flew through the window and Lexianna, Kira, and Hanabi all quickly focused on it. It was of a strange make, having two prongs as well as the center blade. Out of the blue, a blond ninja appeared out of nowhere and grabbed the flying kunai. He just smiled, put one hand on his head and said "Hello!"

Naruto focused on the genins and took in their appearances from his entry into the room. Lexianna had grabbed a kunai from her pouch, Hanabi activated Byakugan, and Kira had a food pill in her hand ready to give it to Luna. Naruto smiled wider, they were going to be fine ninja once you get past the teamwork issue.

"I'm the sensei for this team, Uzumaki-Namikaze Naruto. Pleased to meet you!" Naruto said.

"What a waist. Our sensei is a blond smiling prick. Why couldn't I have Sasuke-kun as a sensei?" Lexianna wined.

"I see that the Uchiha pride is growing strong in you, but I assure you that I will be a better sensei than Sasuke. He might be faster, but I am stronger than he is. Now, meet me on the roof and we can continue this delightful conversation," Naruto said throwing the kunai out the window, teleporting to it and throwing it up. He looked in the window and saw the genins looking at him in amazement. He saluted them and teleported to the kunai. He accidentally missed catching it and there for had to teleport to it again and catch it. "Damn it, I still need some work. Oh well." He landed on the roof and managed to sit down and study the formula on the blade while Lexianna, Hanabi, and Kira filed onto the roof and sat down on the benches. He sat studying the formula and saw that it was similar to one of the ones Kakashi gave him.

"Naruto-sensei? Are you okay?" Kira asked.

"What?" Naruto said looking up. He saw the three genins giving him questioning looks. "Oh, I'm fine. I was just studying the fuinjutsu formula on this kunai in case I need to recreate it." The three just nodded and looked around. The Kage monument was easily visible from the roof of the academy. Kira looked at it.

"Alright. I know nothing about you other that what your files told me. So let's begin with your names, hobbies, likes, dislikes, dreams or goals, etc. Kira you start," Naruto said turning to face them.

"My name is Kira, my hobbies are training and walking Luna through the forest. My likes are ramen and training. I don't really have any dislikes. My dream is to be the strongest ninja I can to protect my family," Kira said blushing slightly. Naruto had to suppress a cheer from her dream, it was the same as his.

"My name is Hyuga Hanabi. My hobby is training. I don't really like anything and I dislike pretty much everything so it doesn't matter. My dream is to surpass my sister and become heir to the Hyuga clan," Hanabi said stoically. Naruto sighed in his head, another ninja just out to surpass a family member.

"My name is Uchiha Lexianna. My hobbies are training and star gazing. I like my uncle Sasuke and my father Itachi. I dislike anyone attacking my family, vebally or physically. My dream is to get out of my father's shadow and unlock the Sharingan," Lexianna pronounced every word like she didn't want to be talking.

"Alright! Now that that's out of the way, meet me at training ground 3 tomorrow and we will begin with an excersize to test your skills. Now I'll be-"

"But sensei, you haven't told us about you!" Kira interrupted.

"I guess I didn't . Hmm, my name is Uzumaki-Namikaze Naruto. I like ramen and Konoha. I dislike anyone hurting those I care about. My hobbies include training, cloud gazing, ramen eating contest and a few other things. My dream is to be Hokage and step out of my father's shadow." Naruto looked around at the three young faces looking at him waiting for the inevitable question of…

"Who's your father? I know I've heard both Uzumaki and Namikaze before but I just can't place them," Hanabi asked.

"Well, my father is Namikaze Minato, Yondaime Hokage to Konoha, married to Uzumaki Kushina, and is otherwise known as the Yellow Flash," Naruto said.

Lexianna looked at Naruto with more interest, Kira looked amazed, and Hanabi was dumbstruck. This blonde idiot was the son of the strongest and fastest person in the Hidden Leaf? No way that it was true. He had to be lying. But his name was Namikaze. The only other person that had the name Namikaze was the Yondaime.

"You're the son of the Yondaime? Prove it!" Hanabi said, still not wanting to believe him even though the proof was right in front of her.

"Fine. Follow me," Naruto said and he jumped off the roof to the next one, followed by the slower Team 3. Naruto glanced back every few minutes to make sure they were keeping up before he opened the window to the Hokage's office and went inside.

"You know, there is a door. You could use it sometimes," Tsunade said.

"Yeah, but there is a question my genin team has for you," Naruto said just as they jumped through the window.

"And what would they have to ask me?"

"Is Naruto really the son of the Yondaime Hokage?" Hanabi yelled.

"I'm right here, you don't have to yell. And yes he is. As proof, I have two things for you. One is a picture of the Yondaime to compare with Naruto and two is Naruto's birth statement signed by his father the Yondaime," Tsunade said standing up and going to a filing cabinet with all the birth records of the ninja in Konoha. She pulled out Naruto's and handed it to Hanabi, along with pointing to the picture of Minato on the wall.

"Do you believe him now?" Tsunade said.

"Hai, Hokage-sama," Hanabi said subdued a little.

"Good, leave the file on the desk and you can go now," Tsunade said dismissing the genin. "Naruto please stay." Once the genin were gone she continued, "Did you really have to tell them who your father was?"

"They asked, I answered, and Hanabi didn't believe me. She asked for proof so I brought her here to the place where the answers are," Naruto said.

"Fine. But next time, you don't have to tell them."

"Yes ba-chan. Is there anything else?"

"No, you can go."

Naruto stepped out in the hall where Kira was waiting for him. She wanted to talk to the son of the famous Yellow Flash, hero of Konoha and of the second Great Ninja War. Naruto, however, just wanted to go home and sleep. He saw Kira in the hall and smiled at her.

"Sensei, were you really sad when your father died?"

"I was actually just born on the day he died, so I never knew him well enough to say. However, he was a good man and respected for his acheivments in the second ninja war so losing him lost Konoha's strong ninja. That's a downer but you have me now and I hope to be as good as he was. Now, you should prepare for tomorrow. I promise you that it will be a strange new training program. Get ready for it and prepare to train your butt off."

Kira left with a small smile on her face. Her sensei was one of a kind. He was kind and gentle, yet strong and knowledgeable. He was going to give them the workout of their lives. Kira hurried home because she was hungry. When she got home she ate dinner, steak with a few vegetables on the side, and went into her garden to train with Luna. She trained until midnight, at which point she went to bed.

Naruto, however, was watching Lexianna. She had gone home immediately after she left the hokage's office and started to train. The moon was on its way back down, and she was still training. She didn't stop training, she was sweating from exertion and panting heavily and she kept on going. She trained her fireball technique, getting it as big as she could everytime. Then she trained agility and speed, finishing with taijutsu as the sun rose. She stopped training about two hours until she had to meet the rest of the team for training. She took a shower and ate a small breakfast of fruits and milk. Then set out for the training field an hour early.

At the training field, Naruto was looking in the direction of the village to see the order in appearance. Lexianna appeared first, a full half hour early. Followed by Hanabi at 25 minutes left. Kira showed up last, giving herself only about 10 minutes 'till Naruto was supposed to show up. The looked at each other, then looked back out over the training field. They didn't say anything, just had a silent agreement not to talk. Naruto sighed, he had a lot of work ahead of him to get these young ninja ready for the chunin exams. They might take longer than he originally expected seeing as how they are acting.

Naruto decided to wait long past the time he was supposed to be there. The genin's just looked annoyed that he was late. Two hours after the designated meet time, Kira decided to break the silence.

"Naruto-sensei is really late," she said.

"It's probably a patience test or something. You can't sneak or gather intel if you rush things. So he's waiting to see how long it is until we get bored or something, right sensei?" Hanabi said.

Naruto silently applauded Hanabi for seeing that deep into it. But he jumped down and asked, "If you knew I was up there, why didn't you say so earlier?"

"As I already said, it was probably a patience test or something right?"

"Or something," Naruto said looking at the group. When he jumped out of the tree he was hiding in, a flash of surprise went across Lexianna's face before it returned to its emotionless gaze. Kira didn't try to hide her surprise.

"Wow Hanabi-chan! How did you see him?" Kira asked.

"My Byakugan can see the chakra running through his body. The only way to completely hide from the Byakugan is to be able to completely suppress your chakra and that's impossible," Hanabi explained.

"Impossible, you say?" Naruto asked before he focused a minute. "Can you see my chakra now?"

Hanabi activated her Byakugan, and found that she couldn't see his chakra at all. In fact, if she didn't know he was standing right there she wouldn't have seen him. "No sensei. I can't see your chakra."

"I thought so. Hiashi probably told you that it is impossible to completely suppress your chakra, but it isn't as I just proved. However, we will get to refining your Byakugan skills later. Today I want to test your abilities. You three are tasked with this: hit me," Naruto said.

"What? You want us to hit you?" Kira said.

"Yep. You have to come at me like you mean to kill me though. Whoever doesn't hit me by 2, doesn't get lunch," Naruto said, causing Kira to groan and Hanabi's face to contort into disappointment. Only Lexianna didn't appear phased by his announcement, to which Naruto wasn't surprised. "Alright, begin!" he said with a smile.

The three genin took off into the surrounding forest and hid. Naruto looked around and spotted Lexianna barely. If she would have moved a little faster he would have missed her. He then looked around some more and felt Hanabi, she had activated her Byakugan using more chakra than she should've but he would fix that to smaller amounts later. Kira had hidden herself the best, being as her smelling was as good as a dogs', she didn't need to see him. Or even be that close to him. She just needed to avoid the small river that was running through the training field. Naruto smiled wider. They were pretty good at hiding and using their abilities to see the enemy.

But Kira had one flaw with her, she was impatient. She rushed out after Naruto only a minute or two after she hid. She attacked him with a punch to his face, and when he blocked, a kick to his stomach, which he also blocked. Naruto smiled, she was fast and could improvise. She was thinking on her feet. Naruto continued to block and dodge her attacks before suddenly disappearing from her view and appearing behind her. She smelled him appear behind her but couldn't turn around fast enough to do anything before he could. Luna could though. She jumped at Naruto and tried to attack his arm. Naruto smacked her away and she flipped in the air, landing on her paws. Naruto was about to congratulate her when he sensed that Lexianna was coming at him from behind.

Lexianna came in with a right punch. Naruto grabbed her fist and she kicked at his arm. Naruto released her fist and jumped back. Lexianna landed and jumped at Naruto using straight taijutsu. She was fast, but not yet chunin level speed yet. Naruto easily blocked all her attacks and she saw that. She jumped away from him and did hand signs as fast as she could before sucking in a giant breath and shooting a fireball the size of her at Naruto. Naruto jumped up to avoid it and was kicked in the stomach by Lexianna.

"Good job Lexianna, thinking quick, utilizing jutsu to get the opponent where you can attack him," Naruto said before turning back to Kira. "Kira, you were good but you didn't even notice my substitution until I was behind you. You need to work on distinguishing what's in front of you and the real thing."

Hanabi chose this as the opportune time to attack Naruto. She used her Jyuuken (Gentle Fist) technique, which Naruto knew to block at the wrist from spars with Hinata. Naruto blocked her attacks for a while, watching her face. Kira joined in making Naruto have to work harder to block the four fists and feet coming at him. Naruto blocked an axe kick from Kira with one hand and an upward kick from Hanabi when Hanabi suddenly shot both hands forward and hit him in the stomach. Kira followed shortly after when she kicked him in the chest while he was distracted.

"Never jump into one of my fights again," Hanabi said to Kira before walking away.

"Ignore her Kira, you did good. You have a bright mind and probably decided that attacking me on your own wouldn't result in you winning so you teamed up with Hanabi who doubled the chances of you hitting right?" Naruto said. Kira nodded and looked down. "That was the right decision." Naruto walked her over to the rest of the squad and she went to stand next to the them.

"This whole exersize was about teamwork. Only Kira managed to try to work as a team. The two of you however wanted to go solo and try to take me on yourself. Let me assure you that if I was really fighting as your enemy you would have died the moment you entered the battlefield. Solo fights are steeped in the enemies favor, especially if he is chunin level or higher. Now, we will take a half hour break and you will do this excersize again," Naruto said putting on his serious tone before throwing the strange kunai toward Konoha. He waited a few moments before saluting the girls goodbye and disappearing from view.

Thirty minutes late Naruto returned to the field and the three genin tried again to hit him, this time working as a team. At the end of the day, Naruto was proud at the progress they made on the first day. They were still a little hesitant to work with others, but their clans had already taught them to hit without hesitation. That means that he won't have to overcome the not wanting to hit problem so many fresh genin have. Naruto looked up at the full moon and smiled, happy with the little kids.
