{Minato's Point Of View}

I have been standing here for the past hour just listening to the wind and the trees. My students have hidden themselves pretty well, and I wonder what will happen with this team with their different personalities.

*CRACK*

Turning around I saw a huge log heading my way at a very fast pace. Hurrying out of the way, I land up by a nearby branch of a Big Oak. A smirk that I give myself soon disappears as hear a sizzling sound below me, I see a ton of paper bombs below me! I hear a cracking at the side behind me as the branch I am standing on breaks when the log, from before, comes back behind him! Throwing my kunai far enough to hit the tree across the field, I fled the explosion. "Nice Strategy" I say to myself.

Knowing that the Nohara are famous for their medical Ninjutsu, they are also very good at setting big traps with a very small time limit. The paper bombs and the cut branch were most likely set by my sister, Ruby. I may be the fastest ninja with the Flying Thunder God Technique, but Ruby is faster just by running. She got it from our mother Summer Namikaze, where when you run, rose pedals with flow behind them. This is probably why we named her Ruby Rose Namikaze, and our mother was Summer Rose Namikaze.

Focusing back at whats at hand Ruby had probably cut the branch, and put the paper bombs under the tree. She knew I was going to land on this branch was because of Rin's log trap. What great teamwork, but what happened to them, and what about Kakashi and Obito. Standing on the tree looking into the forest, I see the sand smudged into the ground. It's good to know that they left when he got over there.
I wonder what these kids are hiding?

{Ruby's Point Of View}

After explaining the plan to Rin, she nods her head as she stands. I smudge the map because we used the dirt and sand, and then I rose as well.

Rin runs to the left and signals me to follow because she doesn't have the strength to knock down an entire tree. Make sense that I have to do it because my mother was very strong, and studied along side Tsunade herself. I consider myself lucky to be on my mother side of the family while my brother is from my fathers side of the family which means he has the book smarts. Even though my parents died when I was three, Minato-nii remembers so he told me instead.

Catching up to Rin, I see her looking at a medium sized tree with a big red X about two thirds down from the middle of the tree. Nodding my head, knowing what to do, I raise my hand to the tree and gave it a huge punch that could knock out a man in one hit. The tree fell backwords as I hurried and caught it, so Minato does not hear it fall. Slowly putting the tree trunk on the ground, I told her to make the trap and to wait for my signal to release it.

I run to the opposite side of the training field, or the opposite side of the trap, so I can see where the log would go, and to know what branch Minato-nii would land on. "Though...knowing him, he would just do a back flip to a branch that is directly behind where he stood." I told myself as I ran to the top of the tree; took a kunai, then cut the branch halfway, so it would break when he stood on it. Then I put about fifty paper bombs on the ground as quickly as I could

Running to the tree next to the one I booby trapped, I grabbed my scythe and pointed it to the sun, so it would make a glare that Rin could see.

Hearing a crack I saw the log coming at just the right angle. 'Nice shot, Rin!' I thought to myself as I see my brother, just like I thought, back flip on to the tree. Jumping back to my best friend, I make the paper bombs explode with the "snake" hand sign Once they exploded and smoke flooded the training grounds, I grabbed Rin's hand to guide her to the boys, we ran threw the fire and gas to get to Kakashi and Obito.

{Kakashi's Point Of View}

I have been siting here for about an hour, thinking of how to get the "Yellow Flash" distracted so i could get a bell. Speaking of Minato-sensei, I wonder where Ruby is. Thinking of that, my chest starts to ache thinking of her. 'What's this feeling...' I thought. Putting that thought aside, I saw Obito down below me about twenty feet away, I scoffed at the dope because he seems to be confused on what to do. I look back at our sensai thinking about what to do...

*CRASH*

I see a huge log coming right for Minato-sensei and a very high speed, but I know that won't put him down. As I thought he jumped back, and landed on a branch. I look down below him, and what I saw surprised me...paper bombs! The branch that the yellow, grinning Jonin was on snapped as the bombs exploded, and the smoke flooded throughout the the field.

I could not see a thing in front of me until someone grabs my arm and pulled me back from where I was. I was too shocked to move that I let the person drag me to where ever they are going. I closed my eyes to sense who the person was, and where I was going. Their chakra was not easy to sense, and I could feel something different in their system. Ruby.

When we stopped moving, I opened my eyes to see my "teammates" looking at me like I was a different person. "What, why are u looking at me like that? And why are we all here together?" I asked very demanding with a solid, cold glare. At the corner of my eye I see Ruby shake her head as she let me go. Rin sigh's at my comment, as Ruby kneels down and signals me to come down with her. Ruby looks at all of us, but mostly at Obito and I.

"Ok, so knowing my brother, he wants us to use teamwork; we need to work together to get a bell." Obito looks at me confusingly and opens his mouth to say something, but Ruby interupts him. "I know what you are going to say, there are only three bells so one of us will have to go back," The yellow haired Genin says sarcastically, "Minato-nii did that on purpose to trick us, to make us go against each other. Just think about it, have you ever heard of a team with only two team members in a four celled team. Or in this case three Genins in a five celled team."

I look down at my hands as they tremble. I Remeber what happened to my father with his...death. Though I think Ruby is right with the bell part.

"So we do not really need to fight him very hard if we do it together. Now here is the plan...

{Minatos Point Of View}

Phew! That was a good trap from the girls, but I wonder what the boys are going to do. I ran back to the middle of the training field to see what the kids are going to do next...

*WHOOSH*

Turning around I see Ruby looking at me with a smile and a glare. She starts to run really fast around me that you could not see her, but only rose peddles and dust. I hear someone shout out "Fire Release: Phoenix Sage Fire Technique" and tiny fire ball's coming out of nowhere, going in every direction. I tried to use my special kunai to get out of there, but I see myself covered in traps, left to right. I smile to myself but disappeared quickly again when the traps activate and sent a blind light from a blade. Once I regain consciousness, I see myself surprisingly surrounded in a box formation by all four, even Kakashi, of my students there with determination on their faces.

They started to run around me to gang up on me, but they never came. With a surprised expression because they don't do anything until, they just stop. All four of the Genins brought up their fingers doing a countdown from three, two, one...

*DING*

The alarm clock went off, and all four of my students fell to the ground. I look at my students with a soft look. "That was some excellent skills you have all showed me, but none of you got a bell, and I think you were trying not to get them at all? Why?"

My sister rose with a Namikaze grin as she taps her headphones. "We did not need to get a bell from you because it did not matter." I look at her surprised. Next Rin stood up and was linking arms with Ruby. "We need to be in a team of four because that is how we were formated." Obito stood next to Kakashi. "Even if I do not want to be on a team with Kakashi at all! We need teamwork to be a ninja, right. We need to be one!" Obito raised his fist in the air while I hear the Hatake scoff and look away.

I smiled down at them, "is that your final answer, that you four need to stay together, that you are all one?" They look at me with, again, Determination!

I sigh and grinned at them. "I am guessing that my sister told you that, but a test is a test, and you pass, and we are now the new team 7! We start our first mission tomorrow!"

{Third Point Of View}

Obito shouts his excitement to the clouds above, but looks back at Minato. "So what are we going to do, battle rouge ninja's; escort a princess!

"Actually we are only going to be doing some D-Ranked missions like babysitting and catching lost pets." Minato says with a sly smile. Obito pouts as the rest of the team, except Kakashi, laugh at him. Minato looks at his team with a smile. "Well, you all did well today, how about we go for some ramen!"

Obito and Ruby shouted a big "YEAH" while Rin and Minato laugh, and Kakashi just stares at them with no interest.

Hey Guys!
