A/N I do not own naruto in any way shape or form. Thanks again to 1yui for his continued support and insightful reviews.

As the genin stared incredulously at their new sensei Kakashi performed one of his infamous eye smiles as he said "if you can't handle it you could always go back to the academy." He glared maliciously at them "the village doesn't need ninja who don't represent its core values. And while you're at it you won't get the bells unless you try to kill me" he assumed a defensive stance, " begin."

The three scattered almost immediately and hid in the surrounding area. Naruto, who had heard slight inflictions in the tone of Kakashi's voice created two dozen or so shadow clones 'find Shikamaru and Sasuke' he commanded mentally, 'I have a plan' he pointed a thumb in the general direction of the jonin 'I will distract scarecrow over there '(for those who don't know Kakashi is the Japanese word for scarecrow) 'tell them to meet me at the forest clearing' and with that they took off. 'Ready Kurama-senpai?' the fox licked its muzzle in anticipation 'Born ready kit, let's do this'. Naruto flew through the handsigns that the fox taught him "YOROI NO KITSUNE!" he drew his sword and the fox's chakra blossomed forth as if from a fountain "KATAMERU!" The red chakra coallesed around him forming two red tails behind the red jinchuriki as his eyes turned to slits and the whisker marks became fully pronounced however he retained his cerulean eyes and radiated a fair amount of power.

Kakashi sensed a wave of power and homed in on the location and was supprised to see naruto in what appeared to be a streamlined tailed beast cloak. "what the fuck naruto!" Naruto looked at kakashi and grinned.

"Always wanted to try this one." He faced the jonin and took an unorthodox stance. He sprung forward spinning like a tornado and simultaneously made several slashes with his sword witch forced Kakashi to jump out of the way as the jinchuriki flew by. 'What the hell' Kakashi thought to himself as Naruto righted himself. Then promptly fell over in a dizzy mess losing track of the silver jonin as he struggled to maintain the fox armor as he looked for his target.

'damn it kit you know to never use that move until your opponent loses you' said the Kyubi to our clueless genin. 'sorry kyubi sama' apologized the young man to the fox 'I was overexcited and forgot' 'never mind that jump!' the warning came to late as a hand shot out of the ground onto Naruto's leg causing his concentration and therefor his armor to shatter leaving him neck deep in dirt with a jonin eye smiling next to his face.

"rule 1: never lose track of your opponent." Said Kakashi "how bout you just rest here and wait for the sun to go down, those others wont last nearly as long" Kakashi turned his back on Naruto and shunshined away.

"Idiot" said the clone as he dispelled himself "don't you know a kawamiri when you see one?
