Kakashi looked over his new genin squad curiously as they sat on the roof, soaking up the sunshine. To say they were not what he expected upon reading their files would be something of an understatement.
First, he was pretty sure that Sasuke was supposed to be a human, Sakura didn't dress in blue dresses with rainbow striping, and Naruto didn't have a long sword. But he was fairly certain there was a perfectly logical explanation.
Looking at Sasuke again, he noticed that he was now a three-foot tall dark blue bear with a white belly, and a heart caught on fire, smack dab center on his belly. For some reason, he didn't want to take his eyes off him for too long.
Moving his attention a few feet to the left of said yard high bear, he came to Sakura, whose blue dress was so short as to be right out of Icha Icha, with a thick white trim around the bottom. On her arms were green, blue, purple, red, and yellow puffs, with a blue coff around her wrists with a yellow star on it. She had a yellow collar with red dots, which stood out more with the red suspenders, and rainbow belt she had on. Her boots were similar to her sleeves, started with thick whites on the top, then green, blue, purple, and red, orange laces, and yellow soles. There were stars all over her.
Shifting to the other side of the line he was happy to note that Naruto was currently in his orange jumpsuit and pretty much identical to his folder entry save for the sword on his back. He'd seen it before Naruto had sat down. It was an odd blade that widened out to about three inches across, with weird bumps flanking a blue gem. It then narrowed to two and a half inches, with more bumps. It also lacked a normal wrapping most swords had. Maybe Naruto hadn't gotten around to it yet.
Deciding to get things under way he sighed. "Maa... let's do some introductions..." he started, before holding up a hand to stop questions. "I'm Kakashi Hatake... you'll learn enough about me, but let's start with you Mr. Grin-and-bear-it..."
"Hn... I'm Flaming-heart bear... formerly Sasuke Uchiha..." the ex-human stated, "I'm living proof why one shouldn't mess with scrolls the older brother who killed your family left behind... I can do a unique attack called a Care Bear Stare... not sure what it does..."
"Right... we'll test it out later..." Kakashi answered cautiously while pointing to Sakura. "Spokeswoman for gay rights, you're up."
Sakura glared at Kakashi before sighing and standing up, a rainbow shooting out of her belt, coating Kakashi in a layer of rainbow coloring. As her teacher's eye twitched dangerously, she began her introduction. "I'm Sakura Haruno, also known as Rainbow Brite, the princess of Rainbow Land... I have made a friend with 'the most magnificent horse in the universe'" Sakura repeated as though by rote repetition while Kakashi was trying to place the Land of Rainbows and if he'd heard of them missing a princess. "His name is Starlite... That's all."
Kakashi decided to end this simply by pointing to Naruto. "You're up..."
He expected some loud proclamations about becoming the Hokage, and maybe some things about ramen, what he got was...
"I'm Naruto Uzumaki... Defender of the crystal castle..." Naruto stated calmly while looking at Kakashi dead in the eye. "I also have a beloved steed named Spirit... Fabulous secrets were revealed to me the day I held aloft my sword and said..." Naruto paused to hold up his sword which began to spark with lights. "For the HONOR OF GREYSKULL!"
In a blast of light, Naruto was replaced by a tall blonde woman in an outfit that made Sakura's look like a nun's habit. From ground up there were golden stiletto knee-high boots, a white micro-miniskirt with a gold beltline, a curious cold emblem on the ground, and golden wings off her breasts. Holding her long flowing blonde hair back was a golden open face helm with wings, a red gemstone set in the middle of the forehead being the only color. It matched the billowing red cape that he guessed was attached to the gold choker around her neck, though the dimensions for that were all wrong. The golden bracers on her arms were a nice touch. "I AM SHE-RA!" the woman proclaimed as the lights faded.
She smiled sheepishly, and fidgeted, "Only a few others share this secret... Light hope... Iruka-sensei... and the Hokage..." Kakashi blinked helplessly as images of the ones mentioned appeared in puffs of smoke, he wasn't sure, but Light Hope might just be from the Land of Rainbows... Maybe She-ra was supposed to be Rainbow Brite's guardian or something... right?
But She-ra wasn't done yet. "Together, me and my friends of the great Konoha strive to free the Elemental nations from the evil forces of HORDAK!" Kakashi stared blankly as a skeletal face being in a blue body suit with a black unitard preventing a complete Gai ripoff, that and the metallic belt, bone suspenders, and bones framing his head appeared. He was only mildly shocked when he leveled his left arm and fired the cannon replacing the actual limb directly at Kakashi. The light faded and Naruto was back with a sheepish grin on his face. "Sorry, that always happens..."
Kakashi stared blankly at Naruto for a minute, before sighing. "Right, meet up at Training grounds seven at ten tomorrow for your final initiation test... and I recommend not eating breakfast, you'll only throw it up. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm going to challenge Gai to a taijutsu match to the death..."
Before the students could question that, Kakashi was gone in a swirl of leaves.
