The Beginning of Team 7

[sakura]

Sakura leaned her head to the side. Every other team had gotten their sensei… Where the heck is ours? Sakura thought, her eyes were closed. Of course, getting there that morning after meeting up with an interesting Jounin, was kind of annoying yet nice. I’m glad Sasuke-kun walked with me… She thought dreamily to herself, smiling small. As for the annoying part was Naruto asking to go on a date, undeniably she denied him and his request.

She then looked up to see her two other teammates, Sasuke, who looked to be in thought and Naruto who, too, seemed in thought. Naruto, you better not be thinking about anything stupid, cha![/b] Her inner self screamed out, throwing a fist up in the air, her eyes narrowing. But in Sakura’s outwardly face appearance, she her being a little calmer, but still showed her suspiciousness as to what the blond ninja was thinking. Sakura would wait to see if he did anything stupid, and if he did, they would go through their usual ritual of her yelling out to Naruto to stop being stupid, Sasuke only staying quiet and Naruto doing the activity and getting a good punching from Sakura. This didn’t happen a lot during their academy years, but now that they were a team, there seemed to be the slight foreshadowing that there might be more bruising and shattered ear drums.

Sakura then leaned back, brushing her fingers threw her bright pink hair, wondering when to count down for something bad to happen. Her green eyes looked over at the door, praying that their sensei would come soon.

In fact Naruto WAS in thought. Mostly about how he could get the Jounin back for not being at the academy when he should have been causing them to have to wait for so far 2 hours without seeing nor hearing a word from the man. Thus Naruto pondered.

‘I could go with the old ‘Destroy your favorite possession’ routine but that’s too overdone and not artistic enough for me. Could Sexy Jutsu him but Sakura-chan would just smack me and if he’s not perverted enough it wouldn’t be worth it enough for it to matter. So what shall I do? It must be truly epic, so epic they will sing songs about its epicness for all the rest of time. I’ve GOT IT!’ Naruto mentally yelling the last bit almost with a EUREKA pose in his head.

He then proceeded to do the most epic prank that would ever exist. He put an eraser on top of the barely open door and cackled maniacally in his head. Surely this was the greatest prank to ever grace the halls of this institution. Iruka-Sensei’s inner prankster would be so proud.

Then he was once more… bored beyond all belief. His truly epic pranking skillz would be seen when Kakashi-sensei FINALLY arrived to pick them up from the academy. Till then he couldn’t do much other than sit and be extremely bored. Hungry he found what was Chouji’s desk and sure enough there were a couple bags of potato chips in them. Grinning he started munching while he waited for Kakashi to arrive.

[sasu]

In fact, the Uchiha wasn't thinking about much. He sat in a seat that was near the door but also far enough away that it didn't seem like he was crowding. Not that Sasuke really cared whether or not this Jonin liked him. He wasn't at the Academy for liking people after all, it was for his own benefit. The Uchiha had things to do, places he needed to be, but in order to do any of that he needed to be stronger, much stronger. That was the Uchiha's goal. No, it was something he was going to accomplish no matter what. He wasn't going to let anyone or anything stop him.

As the others started doing there own thing Sasuke didn't move. He simply leaned his chin on his crossed fingers. This was a position the Uchiha usually took when he was thinking about something or he simply wanted others to leave him alone, which, honestly seemed like it was getting worse and worse. He was constantly being surrounded by girls that really irritated the crap out of him. He sighed with this thought. That was when his attention was taken for a few moments by the racket going on in the room.

He glanced at the other two he had so far ignored for most of the wait. Sasuke had been paired with Naruto and Sakura. Earlier, he had been kissed by the dobe which had been the most horrible thing he had ever experienced. The boy flinched a tiny bit thinking about it. And Sakura was another one who liked constant flirting, the boy already knew that they would be useless to his training and would slow him down so he simply ignored them. That was until he saw the dobe put an eraser on the door entrance.

Like normal, Sasuke said nothing and simply walked away. "We are dealing with a Jonin baka, he wont fall for something so stupid and naive. " Sasuke thought to himself. He closed his eyes and leaned his head against his hands. It seemed even the Uchiha was getting a little impatient. After all Sasuke hated when he couldn't do anything towards his goal. So this was really starting to aggravate even the Uchiha.

[Kakashi Hatake]

Back on form, Kakashi was running late and was not at all bothered by the fact. In fact he had a feeling that this whole thing might be uncomfortable from start to finish, between the loud-mouth, the brooding genius and... Sakura, the team was a veritable grab bag of personality quirks if not full blown disorders. Still, hope springs eternal and Kakashi had actually begun to hope that what he was trying to teach would resonate with them, he'd detected some hostility during their brief exchange, not all of it directed about the group itself. Of course trust was a major point on any ninja team, hopefully that would come naturally, but first he had to get the hard and heavy stuff out of the way, make sure they were all on the same page and whatnot.

Finally after a good deal of deliberation and to be entirely honest a smattering of procrastination Kakashi found himself stood outside the room where he was to meet his Genin. He peered in and nudged the door with his hand, dislodging something above the door which struck him on the head before clattering to the floor as he poked his head in. Seriously? Did that really just happen? Kakashi's eye snapped down to the object at his feet, a board eraser, classic prank and it would probably have been funny were it not at his expense. Still, it gave a fair indication of how the three youngsters were taking the whole 'ninja' thing. Sighing he picked it up from the ground and surveyed his team to be, eye half closed.

'Alright, first impression is...' He crossed to the table and dumped the eraser there, standing not too far from them now. 'I hate you guys.' He took what sounded to be a laborious breath and rolled his neck muscles before turning back to the door. 'Well let's not wait around in here all day, we'll get out in the sun and get on with the introductions.'

Pulling a stupid prank like that, I'd hate to think that this is all just a game to them. If that were the case then were they ever in for a shock, but it was better Kakashi deliver it now than they go about their careers with false perceptions. Obviously a Genin, well a normal Genin, couldn't be expected to just snap into a serious mindset. That dedicated and calm frame of mind took time... perhaps a lot of time in this case. Come to think of it, I doubt any of these three are by any definition normal... maybe I can afford to be hopeful.
