It's 1 in the morning, Naruto was cleaning the apartment. While in the ANBU, he has indeed gotten stronger, but seeing conflict at a young age leads to PTSD. To substitiute for sleep, he meditates. It has the same effect as sleep, but the time it takes for his strength to recover is 4.5 hours, giving him a lot of time to kill. He was sorting out his books to see which he should read, when he encountered his old "bingo book." Naruto then remembered his various nom de guerres. Names like The Demon Fox of the Leaf, The Black Dragon Ryu Yokaze, even Dracula though it was rarely used. With a bounty of 5 million ryo(1 ryo equals 10 cents in USD), he was the deadliest ninja of his generation, regardless, he has been recognized by many ANBU members, Danzo included, to be one of the best captains in the Leaf. He threw it away so he could start getting ready fo his first day, and hopefully, his new life. He took a relaxing shower and got dressed wearing black shorts with orange stripes on the side, an plain orange shirt, and a black hoodie vest with the Uzumaki clan symbol on the back. Carrying his bookbag, as he was on his way to the Acadamy, Naruto noticed a difference in people's attitude toward him. It used to be that everyone sneered at him out of anger, but now they're trying to avoid him out of fear. He reached the the Acadamey office and asked for his schedule. Once he found what classroom to go to, he was surprised to find Iruka Umino as his sensei. Iruka was also surprised to see Naruto at first, but quickly broke the trance, "Alright class," he got the attention of the classroom. "We have a new student in our class, his name is Naruto Uzumaki." Everyone was whispering to each other wondering if he was The Demon Fox their parents were talking about. "Ahem", Iruka coughed falsly to get their attention, "please make him feel welcome, Naruto you can sit next to Sasuke." I looked at the class and found him, Itachi's kid brother. I walked towards my seat and sat down, not paying much attention to Sasuke. He looked a lot like Itachi, with a pair of onyx eyes and raven black hair, wearing a black short-sleeved turtleneck and black shorts. Sasuke looked over at Naruto wondering what they meant by the Demon Fox, he was about to ask, when another sudent burst in. She had pink hair, jade green eyes and a red bow in her hair. "Sorry I'm late, Iruka-sensei," she said while gasping for air. Iruka nodded and asked her to take her seat. She walked up to Naruto and asked him if she could sit between us. "Ok,"he agreed not knowing that this girl was one of the many fangirls I had. He also didn't know that I found her extremely annoying. She sat between us as red as a tomato, becuase she was sitting between two of Konaha's cuteset guys. I've overheard my classmates saying how hot Naruto was and how lucky Sakura was to sit between us. I looked over at Naruto to see wat he was doing, I was pleased to see he had an annoyed look on his face, 'I wasn't the only one.' Sparring time came, I was picked to be the first fighter. All at once, every girl watching started cheering me on. these are the only times I'm not annoyed by them. I looked at Iruka to see who my opponent was,"Naruto Uzumaki," the fangirls started cheering for him. In the back of my mind, I started thinking, 'Are they bipolar.' We both got into are fighting stance, "Begin."I charged at Naruto trying to end it quick, but punch and kick I threw were easily blocked. He threw a sucker-punch at me, but I easily dodged it. I noticed that his punche were slower than his blocks,' Is he holding back?' After a few minutes, Naruto knocked me down. "Match over, winner, Naruto" Iruka called out as the fangirls started cheering for him. I looked at him, right in the eyes with anger, but he looked at me with sympathy. He walked up to me and offered me his hand, "good fight I look forward to a rematch." I smirked, then I grabbed his hand as he helped me up. "I look forward to it." Afterschool I noticed everyone going to their parents, hugging and kissing eachother. I walked away from the Acadamey when I noticed a blonde kid sitting under a tree, reading a book. Since I didn't have to go home right away, I decided to talk to him. "Hey, what are you reading?" I secretly didn't care what he was reading, but I didn't know what else to say. "Errand Runners." "Aren't your parents gonna pick you up." Naruto looked down, "No, they were killed when I was born." Sasuke regretted asking that question as he saw it sadend the young blonde. "So, Sasuke right?" I nodded. "Want to go get some ramen? My treat." Naruto's way of looking at me, like I was family. "Alright." From that moment on, Naruto and Sasuke became friends, no, they became brothers.

It's been four years since Naruto and Sasuke became friends. At first sight they didn't look like friends. They hardly talk to eachother, mostly while they're training. Once you get to know them, your perception of them will change. In the graduation test, the class is asked to create at least 3 clones. The entire class passes with flying colors. Later, the teams are announced, - Team 7, Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha," both smile at each other and bump fists. "- Sakura Haruno," Sakura yells in triumph as she is on both Naruto and Sasuke's team, the two boys however laid their heads on their desks in depression. "Iruka-sensei, why do Naruto and Sauke have to be on the same team with Sakura?!" Sakura Aggressively stares at Ino, who asked the question. "Well Ino," Iruka began, "Naruto and Sasue have shown excellent teamwork in the four years at the Academey and you Sakura show potential as a medical ninja, so if you train in that field, you coud be an important asset to your team." Ino sat down pouting, while Sakura, not listening to Iruka's advice, is fantasizing about being in a love triangle with her teammates. Naruto and Sasuke fall into deeper depression upon hearing her say, 'love triangle.' The captains of each team are announced, the captains take thier subordinates. The only ones left are Team 7, two hours later Kakashi Hatake steps into the class and sees Sakura making googly eyes at her teammates," my first thoughts on you guys is that you three . . . are weird." Sakura confused on what he meant by weird while the other two start anime crying. "Meet me on the roof," Kakashi ordered as he dsappeared in a cloud of smoke. The three students make their way to the roof. Once they arrived, they see Kakashi leaning on the rail, reading another Icha Icha Paradise novel. The three genin sit down on some steps, "Why don't we start off by formally introducing ourselves, say your name, your likes and dislikes, and your dreams, you first pinkie," Sakura glares at Kakashi, "why don't you go first?" Kakashi looks at Sakura," Well my name is Kakashi Hatake, I'm don't feel like telling you my likes and dislikes, and I haven't thought about a dream." "The only thing you told us was your name," Sakura yelled with a tick mark. "Fine," she said with a pout, "My name is Sakura Haruno, my likes are (looks at her teammmates), my dislikes are (slightly blushes), and my dream is (looks at teammates and turns red) -LOVE TRIANGLE!" she yelled. Naruto and Sasuke become embarrased at the mention of the word. "O-ok," Kakashi says awkwardly," your turn blondie." "My name is Naruto Uzumaki, I like having friends in general and ramen, I dislike failing and losing comrades, my goal, not dream, is to make sure all my friends' dreams come true. Sasuke and Sakura stare at Naruto in awe, while Kakashi chuckles to himself,' Oh Naruto, you've changed for the better, haven't you.' "Al'right, your turn Sasuke," he broke his trance and looked at Kakashi, he thought for a second, then began, " My name is Sasuke Uchiha, I like having friends I can count on, I dislike people who betray their friends, my dream is to restore the Uchiha Clan and atone for my broter's actions." Naruto smiled at his friend noting his change of heart. " Now that introductions are over, I'm going to give you one final test." "What kind of test?" Naruto was curious, he has wanted to spar against his sensei for awhile now. "A survival test meet me in training ground 9 tomorrow at 8 o' clock, and don't eat breakfast or you'll puke." Kakashi made a hand sign and disappeared in a cloud of smoke. Naruto shook his head and looked at his team, "Guys, lets eat a good lunch before the test." Team 7 then went to get ready for tomorrow's test. The next morning, Team 7 was waiting in in the field for Kakashi. They waited for about an hour before he arrived in a cloud of smoke."Sorry I'm late, I took the scenic route," Kakashi said with a closed eye smile. Sakura burst, "Is this going to be a habit with you, if it is let me know so I can destroy you!" Kakashi laughed, then pulled out two bells, "The test is simple, get the bells before lunch and you pass. The person without a bell will be sent back to the academey." The three genin looked at each other the looked back at Kakashi," All right then, begin.
