The next year wasn't much to go by. Naruto had no more incidents with fire after he and Hyori moved into Meliodas's house... perhaps he left the stove on and he didn't notice. He looked over curiously at the said boy who sat by him in class. He heard the door open and suddenly turned his head to see his sensei Iruka walk in... then there was Mizuki... he always seemed to be so cheerful around Naruto when he was around, however it seemed there was something else.

"Good morning class" Iruka said grabbing his stack of papers from his desk. "Today is a big day for you all, the genin exams."

Naruto smiled slightly at the thought before he suddenly felt a wave of doubt cross over his features. The boy was defiantly nervous, he was able to do some medical ninjutsu, however that wasn't needed to pass... to become a genin he needed to be able to do the clone jutsu... and he couldn't...

He felt his hands tap on the desk quite jittery. Meliodas saw this and smiled at him in encouragement.
"You can do it Naruto, don't worry." He said in comfort to the boy, said boy relaxed before giving him a slow but still nervous nod.

"We will start in alphabetical order... and since Meliodas doesn't have a Las name..." Iruka waved him to follow making Naruto whimper at him leaving. "Don't worry, Hyori will be here for a bit." Meliodas reassured once more making him grimance at the thought... his last name started with a p, it didn't help much..

After many names getting called out he was finally called making him slowly stand up and shakily walk towards the door he was going to be tested in...

Opening the door he saw Iruka and Mizuki sitting their with a pen and pencil... but something seemed off.
"Alright Naruto, do the clone jutsu."
Naruto slowly nodded before he shakily put his hands up into a sign.
"Just focus and don't put to much chakra into the jutsu". He repeated in his mind from what Meliodas and Hyori told him... "Clone jutsu!"

He slowly opened his eyes, his goggles disorienting him slightly, hoping and praying he finally got it... but to his demise he saw a clone... but it was barely able to function.. "I'm sorry Naruto... you fail." He felt his world come crashing around him before he slowly turned around and grabbed the door handle... gripping it tightly as tears began to pour out of his eyes.

"Now Iruka, can't we just cut him some slack?" Mizuki's voice rang out making him slowly open the door before closing it again...

He walked outside slowly shaking as he felt a small shiver run by him as he felt cold wind blow across him. He looked up to see Meliodas talking to Hyori before he turn and ran... not wanting to look at them... knowing that he failed.

He kept running and running before he finally ran to the top of the Hokage  monument... his eyes becoming irritated by the goggles he grabbed them and threw them off the cliff side in anger. "WHY DON'T I GET ANYTHING RIGHT!?" He shouted before he felt himself cry and sob into his knees and clutching his legs.

"First I'm a demon... now I'm the deadlast who can't even do a E rank jutsu.... the irony." He murmered before looking out toward the close to  setting sun. He heard rustling before he turned to see Mizuki there with a small smile on his face. Naruto remembering he threw his goggles covered his right side.

"S-sorry... I kinda threw my goggles..."
He lightly looked down the cliff and wondered which house he may of hit.
"These?" Mizuki's held up the pair of goggles making him smile slightly.
He lightly tossed them towards the boy making him catch them with a free hand and turn and quickly put them on. "Naruto do you want another chance? To pass?" When he was turned around he heard the question making Naruto go wide eye in surprise before he turned to see the look of seriousness on his sensei's face. "Yes please." He practically begged before the man lightly patted his head. "Good, this is what you need to do.".
