Beautiful Monsters

Chapter 6~ Team Shizi: Great Reaper, Yinhua, and Avarae

"Team 7: Naruto Uzumaki, Sakura Haruno, and Sasuke Uchiha. Team 8: Kiba Inuzuka, Hinata Hyuga, and Shino Aburame. Team 10: Shikamaru Nara, Ino Yamanaka, and Choji Akimichi. You will meet your Sensei after lunch. Dismissed." Shizi looked around the room in confusion as to why she wasn't given a team or a Sensei. Shikamaru shrugged and invited her to eat with him and his team, to which she accepted.

She sat beside Shikamaru and Choji as she ate her rice ball lunch. She watched as Naruto surprise attacked Sasuke and the blonde boy emerged as the Uchiha, Shizi knowing because she could smell their difference. Sasuke smelt of dirt, steel, and -oddly- oranges while Naruto smelt of steel, dirt, and something deeply sinister with the twang of blood mixed with it.

The set time was passed and the group of four walked back to class to wait for their Sensei to greet them. Shikamaru and his team left with a man named Asuma. The said boy waved back at Shizi, who smiled and returned the gesture. Kiba and his team met their Sensei: a pretty brunette with blood red eyes- though not Sharingan eyes- named Kurenai. That left Naruto and his team along with the lone Shizi.

"I guess Kakashi does have Naruto on his team." Comments Jingxiao as the mentioned boy placed a blackboard eraser in the door.

"I wonder why I wasn't assigned a team or even a Sensei..." Mused the brunette girl as her ears caught the familiar footsteps of Kakashi. He opened the door and stuck his head in, the eraser bonking off his white hair and to the floor. Shizi stifled a laugh as Naruto busted out with the notion.

"My first impression.... you're all idiots." He regarded the trio, passing humorously over Shizi as she sat on a desk by the windows, ears pricked in amusement at his comment.

"Hey, Kika, why wasn't I given a team or a Sensei?" The three beside the brunette looked taken aback at her nickname for the tall Jonin.

"Kika?" Snickered Naruto as he rocked on the desk in front of the man in laughter. The silver haired man glared at the rowdy blonde before turning to explain to Shizi.

"The Third Hokage has decided to place you in your own team but you're technically my student. You'll go on your own missions and all that but I'm the one who files your reports like you're on this team. Make sense?" Shizi nodded and stood with the rest to follow her roommate to the roof for introductions.

"I'll show you. I'm Kakashi Hatake. My likes and dislikes... I don't feel like telling you. My future... haven't really thought about it. Now you guys." He gave them a closed-eyed smile as three of the four looked unamused in the least, while Shizi was smiling at the man's secrecy. She knows a lot more than these three.

"I'm Naruto Uzumaki! I like ramen, I dislike the three minute wait for the food to cook. My future, I plan on being Hokage some day so the people in the village will finally respect me! Believe it!" The blonde blurts first, catching all their attention. Kakashi looks at Sakura, an invitation for her to tell about herself.

"I'm Sakura Haruno. I like.....-" The pinkette took this odd silence to glance over at Sasuke and lightly squeal. This caused Shizi to raise a brow in a question of the girl's sanity. "I dislike Naruto. And my future, I want to become a strong Shinobi and help the village." The Jonin then moved to the cat-eared brunette.

"I'm Shizi Yemao. I like to draw, train with my reaper, and ride my horse when I can. I dislike rude, stuck-up people who treat others like dirt. My future... I don't really know to be honest." The Sensei lightly smiled and looked over at the Uchiha lastly.

"I'm Sasuke Uchiha. I don't particularly like anything and I dislike a lot of things. My future isn't a dream because I'm going to make it reality. I'm going to restore my Clan and kill a certain someone." Shizi looked slightly horrified at the prospect of being that 'certain someone' and the fact that he's so willing to kill someone without batting an eyelash.
