Hitomi walked into the gates of Konoha and was instantly greeted by the two ninjas guarding the gate. They politely ask her to state her business.
"Well, I'm from Kirigakure, but there's been a lot of conflict there recently so I decided to move. I was hoping I would be able to live here," she said.
"Oh, very well then," the guard said, "If you follow this main road you'll eventually come to the Hokage's mansion. You can't miss it. The Hokage will get you an apartment and anything else you need."
"Oh, ok. Thanks!"
She begin to travel down the street. Man, those guards sure were friendly! I guess staying here won't be so bad! she thought. Eventually, she reached the Hokage's mansion and made her way to the Hokage's office. She knocked on the door.
"Come in," said the 3rd Hokage.
"Umm, Hi. I'm Hitomi Fujihara. I was wondering if I could maybe live here?" Hitomi said.
"Of corse. You just have to answer a few questions for me. Alright, so your name is Hitomi Fujihara. Where are you from?"
"Well, I lived in Suna when I was little and I've lived in Kirigakure for most of my life. I left because there's been a lot of conflict there lately. My parents died because of it."
"Hm. I'm sorry to hear that. So, Hitomi, are you a ninja?"
"Well, not exactly. My father was a skilled ninja and my mother knew advanced medical ninjutsu, so they taught me everything they knew, but I never officially became a ninja. One of the Sensei's in Kirigakure told me once that I could be a jonin if I took the test."
"Would you like to?"
"Yeah, sure."
"Alright. Well, I'll contact the Mizukage and have your file sent over, then we'll schedule your jonin test. It'll probably be about two weeks from now. Here's your apartment key, and a village map so you can find your way around. If you need anything else, just ask."
"Thank you, Hokage-sama."
Hitomi went straight to her apartment and got herself settled in. Afterwords, she decided to head to the training grounds to practice for her jonin test. When she got there, she saw a silver-haired man with a mask reading a book, a black-haired kid leaning up against a tree, and a girl with pink hair yelling at a blonde boy.
"SERIOUSLY Naruto how can you expect to pass the chunin exams next month like this! You'll never be as good as Sasuke-kun, so why don't you just give up!" the pink haired girl exclaimed.
"Jeez Sakura, why don't you just lay off of Sasuke. He's not that great anyway! And I can't give up! I'm gonna be hokage, Believe it!" the blonde replied.
"Will you guys quit arguing? You're giving me a headache!" the black haired boy yelled.
Me too . . . Hitomi thought.
"Hey guys," she said, "Sorry to interrupt your 'training session,' but if you have your chunin exams next month, shouldn't you be doing something a little more, oh, I don't know, productivewith your time?"
They all stopped and stared at her.
"Uh, have we met before?" the black haired boy asked.
"Doubt it. I just moved here," Hitomi said.
"Well then, I'm Naruto Uzumaki, and I'm gonna be Hokage someday, Believe it!" the blonde said.
"Hi, I'm Sakura Haruna," said the girl.
"Sasuke Uchiha," the black haired boy stated.
"Hey there, I'm Kakashi Hatake," the silver haired man greeted.
"Nice to meet you, I'm Hitomi Fujihara."
So Hitomi trained with Team 7 for a while then went with them to Ichiraku's for some ramen. Later, they introduced her to all the other ninjas in their group of friends. She trained with them to practice for her jonin test and to help them prepare for the chunin exams. She passed her test with flying colors and became a jonin, and decided to work as a medical-nin at the Leaf Hospital (while still being available for missions as needed). A month passed and the chunin exams were ready to begin . . .
