The Sand Village-
"TEMARI! KANKURO!" Garra shouted
They walked over to him. "Sup Garra." Kankuro said
"What do you need?" their sister asked
"Umm… well… I was thinking… if you guys want to… I guess… umm…" Garra mumbled
"Spit it out Garra!" his siblings shouted
"Do you guys want to get some ramen with me?"
"Sure Garra." Temari said sweetly
"Yeah, sure bro." Kankuro said
"Yes!" Garra jumped up, "let's go." He ran out the door leaving Temari and Kankuro to eat his dust.
'Man he sure loves ramen.'
After a nice meal, Temari eating 2 bowls, Kankuro eating 3 because he was hungry, and Garra eating his usual 7, the three siblings walked home together.
They met up with Yashamaru.
"Uncle Yashamaru." The three ran up to him, Garra gave him a big hug.
"Hey guys, how have you been?"
"Good." The chorused
"That's good to hear." He said
He loved the 3 kids, especially Garra.
Flashback
Yashamaru hid against the wall spying on Garra. He was thinking about the mission he had been assigned by the Kazekage. To Kill Garra. He took a deep breath and put his mask on. He pulled out four kunai and held two in each hand ready to throw. His arms were trembling. 'I can't do this. I love Garra, my nephew needs to be treated better. He hasn't done anything wrong yet everyone treats him like a monster. His own dad sees him only as a weapon. I want to show him that at least I care about him.' Yashamaru took off his mask and put his kunai back. He walked over to Garra.
"Hey buddy. How are you?"
"Huh, Uncle Yashamaru, hi. I'm fine." Garra said sadly
Yashamaru could tell the sadness in his voice. "Garra tell me what's wrong. Please, I care about you and don't like to see you hurt."
Garra looked up, "Do you hate me?"
"Of course not Garra."
"Well, everyone else does. They all think of me as the Shukaku just because it is sealed inside of me."
"I know Garra, but I care about you. And, I bet if you learn to control your sand and if you stop scaring everyone other people would to. I know Temari and Kankuro like you, but they are afraid that you will kill them."
"They like me?"
"Of course. Come on if you want I'll help you with controlling the sand. Then, we could go talk to your brother and sister and ask them to play or have lunch with you."
Garra smiled, "I'd like that. I want friends."
"Okay then. Starting tomorrow I'll help you make friends. For now let's go get something to eat.
"OK." Garra said
The two went to a ramen stand and had some ramen.
The next day Yashamaru told Garra how to use his sand. He also told Garra what it means to be strong. "To fight for someone who you care about. That is what is means to truly be strong."
Garra became good friends with his siblings. Over time Temari, Kankuro, and Yashamaru became his precious people. Then, when he became a genin he was put on a team with his siblings and had a jonin named Baki as his sensei. Soon Baki also became an important person in his life.
Garra did not care about his dad who still tried to turn him into a killing machine. Into the Sand village's ultimate weapon, but Garra didn't care. He had his brother, his sister, his sensei, and his uncle who treated him like a son and who Garra thought of as a dad. He loved them.
End Flashback
"Well, I'll see you guys later." Yashamaru said, "I'm going on a mission and should be back soon."
"OK, good luck." Kankuro said
"Stay safe." Said Temari
"Bye." Garra said
The three siblings went home.
-With Naruto
"Yo Kyuubi I'm back to train."
"GOOD TO SEE YOU AGAIN KIT," the nine tailed fox said
"What are you going to teach me?" Naruto asked
"YOU NEED TO LEARN HOW TO USE YOUR SWORD OR ELSE IT WILL BE DEAD WEIGHT THAT YOU'RE CARRYING AROUND."
For the next hour, which was a couple of days with the Kyuubi, Naruto trained how to use his sword. He had named the sword Pain. Kyuubi trained him with normal swordsmanship the first day, then demon swords art the next day, and the last day he learned jutsu with his sword. Now Naruto was now about a high chunin to low jonin swords man.
Naruto awoke an hour later. He stretched, "Ahhh… that was tiring, but worth it. I will become stronger. I promised." He changed and went to bed.
The next day Naruto woke up. He changed into his new outfit and put on his leaf headband. He look in the mirror. He looked into his stormy blue eyes and thought 'I'm not going to let a bad team slow me down. I will get strong.' He looked up, 'Just you watch Iruka.'
He headed off to the academy.
He walked in and sat down in the back. He saw people whispering and looking at him. Then, Shikamaru walked in with Choji and sat next to Naruto. He studied Naruto's face, "Naruto is that you?"
"Yeah."
"What happened to you? I thought you didn't graduate."
"I did and I just got some new cloths." Naruto said
"Well, they look nice." Choji said as he munched on some chips
The Hokage walked in. All the kids stopped talking when he cleared his throat. "Hello everyone. I am here to tell you your genin teams. You will be on these teams with a jonin sensei in till you become a chunin." He clapped his hands together, "Ok team…"
Naruto who was in deep thought tuned in after the third finished half the teams.
"Team 7 will be Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruno,-"
"Yes!" Sakura called out
"Um hum… and Ino Yamanaka."
"Ha in your face forehead!" Ino shouted
"Ino pig!"
"Will you to cut it out!" the hokage raised his voice. The 2 shut up. "Your sensei will be Kakashi. Team 8 will be Kiba Inuzuka, Shikamaru Nara, and Naruto Uzumaki. Your sensei will be Kurenai. Team 9…"
Naruto thought 'A decent team.'
"Team 10 will be Choji Akimichi, Hinata Hyuuga, and Shino Aburame and your sensei is Asuma." The hokage finished. "Your senseis will be here to pick you up soon. Good luck." He walked out.
Kiba walked over to Naruto and Shikamaru. "So you two are my teammates."
"Yeah, at least you're not as troublesome as Sasuke, Ino, and Sakura." Shikamaru said
Naruto just nodded.
The senseis started to come in.
Team 7, Team 8, and Team 10 were now the only teams left.
Then, two jonins walked in. on tall guy with black hair, a trimmed beard, and a cigarette sticking out of his mouth. The other was a beautiful woman with black hair and red eyes. She was wearing bandage looking robe with red sleeves. "Team 10 met me on the roof" Asuma said. His team got up and left.
"Team 8 come with me." Naruto, Shikamaru, and Kiba got up and walked out with her.
Kiba whispered to Naruto and Shikamaru, "Dudes, are sensei is totally hot."
A kunai came whizzing over Kiba's head giving him an unwanted haircut.
"I am your jonin sensei and I want to be your friend. But I hate perverts, call me hot again and I'll be your worst nightmare." She got out of Kiba's face and smiled, "Okay so let's introduce ourselves. I'll go first. My name is Kurenai Yuhi. You guys are my first genin team and I'm looking forward to working with you. I like hanging with my friends and chocolate. I hate perverts. My dream is to become a great kunoichi and have a family."
"Kiba is my name and this is Akamaru. I like Akamaru and my friends. I hate dog haters and Sasuke. My dream is to become my clan head."
"I'm Shikamaru Nara. I like watching clouds and hate troublesome things like my mom. My dream is to be an average shinobi and have a family."
"My name is Naruto Uzumaki. I like ramen and training. I dislike things like people who look down on me for who I am. My dream is to become a great ninja and protect everyone to show them they were wrong about me."
"Alright nice to meet all of you. Tomorrow meet me at training ground 8 to take your genin test." Kurenai said.
