Sasuke and Hana stayed over at Meiko and Taro's house that night. Their parents didn't mind, they just sort of felt bad for the young Uchiha twins. After Itachi's killed the entire clan, the twins began to distance themselves away from people, Sasuke much more than Hana though. Meiko and Taro still stayed close to them, building their bond with Hana more than Sasuke.

The four of them all ate breakfast together before quickly running off to school. Meiko, Taro and Hana raced each other there as Sasuke just walked at a nice pace. Once they all were at the academy in the class, they all took their seats.

Today, Sasuke and Hana sat next to each other, Meiko on Hana's right and Taro on Sasuke's left. The last time they sat like this was the day of the Uchiha Massacre. Ever since then, the Uchiha twins usually sat next to each other while the Sejida twins, Meiko and Taro, sat in front of them.

Iruka came in and looked over the class and smiled. Everyone seemed excited to get their teams today.

"Alright everyone. We don't have enough jonin this year to teach you all to have teams of three. So three of your teams will have four..." Hana glanced from Sasuke, to Taro, to Meiko with a worried expression. Was if she wasn't in a team with any of them?

Just then, a knocked on the door was heard as the Hokage entered the class. "I hope I'm not interrupting, Iruka, but I had an idea on how to keep the teams with three genin each. I will take three of them and train them myself." The old man smiled softly at the young chunin.

"Lord Hokage, I already have all the teams divided up. Are you sure you want to do this?" Iruka said as he watched the man. He simply nodded before looking over the class.

"I read over the tests and already picked the three I wanted. Hana, Meiko , and Taro. Hana had the highest score in the class while Meiko and Taro didn't trail too far behind." He smiled over at the three as all eyes locked on Hana for a moment.

A few whispered were heard about how it was unfair the three trained with the Hokage. Why them? What's so special they couldn't go with a jonin? Why the Hokage?

Hana, Meiko and Taro all stood up and walked to the front of the class and stood by the Hokage. They all smiled up at the old man before the four of them exited the room. It was a quiet walk to the training fields before Meiko talked.

"Uhm, sir? Lord Hokage? Why us? Why not put us on a team of four?" The young girl said softly before they all sat down in the grass. The Hokage looked up at the sky for a minute before back at the three kids.

"You all have been friends for years. You know each other's strengths and weaknesses. You know about teamwork and protect each other." A small smile slowly grew over the mans lips as he spoke. "Even though you guys kind of know what being a great shinobi is, you all need training still. Tomorrow, we will work on a teamwork exercise with Team 7." The kids looked up at the man confused.

"But you said we already know about teamwork? Why are we practicing it?" Taro asked the man with a questionable look on his face.

"Like I just said, you three already know what's it's like to work as a team. Team 7, from what I've gathered, are all complete opposites and possibly won't work as much of a team tomorrow. The one thing is, you can't tell them the key is to be a team. Try showing them, and they will figure it out." The Hokage smiled at the young kids before slowly standing up and walking away.

"Dismissed. I will see you all tomorrow. Oh, and don't forget to eat breakfast." Hana, Taro and Meiko looked at him before nodding their head softly.

"Bye Sensi!" They all said in unison as they waved to him. Once the Hokage was out of view, the three of them looked at each other.

"Now what?" Taro asked as he looked at his sister and then at his friend.

"I could go for some spicy pork ramen... or some dango..." Hana smiled and jumped from her spot on the ground and started to walk back into town.

"Ramen and dango it is!" Meiko said as she followed her brother and friend. The three of them laughed softly as they soon went to town to get their lunch.
