Chapter 1

First day in the Academy,

In class, all the girls, except Hinata Huuga, were talking about Sasuke Uchiha, the last soul surviver of the Uchiha Massacre, who barely talks to anyone and who barely shows emotions. While the boys where talking about their personal lives or something. Then the door opened to reveal their sensei, Iruka Umino, with a new student behind him.

"EVERYONE SIT DOWN!" Iruka yelled to the whole class and when they did he said, "Alright as you can see we have a new student, can you introduce yourself?" gestering to a girl behind him who nodded at him.

(Think of Diva as Naru and I'm not good a discribing so go look at my profile of an outfit for her in, 'Princess of Chiropeteran Chap. 1 Pic. 1', but the bows on both thighs are black pouches.)

When the new student looked at them she smiled and said, "Hello, my name is Naru Uzumaki, it's a pleasure to meet you all." Then all of the boys, except the some girls who thought they were prettier than her and some were jealous of her beauty, blushed from the beauty Naru had, they almost thought she was an angel.

"Is there any questions?" Then there was a couple of raised hands. Then he chose a kid who has a puppy on his lap, "Kiba, you go first." "How old are you?"

"I'm 10" Naru answered. Then Iruka said, "Shino" "How come you chose now to come to school? It is the middle of the semester."

"I'm sorry, I don't feel like answering it." Naru rubbed the back of her head. "It's alright, Naru, you don't have to answer all of their questions." Iruka said as he patted Naru's head. "Choji" "What do you like?"

"I like ramen, my friends, and maybe train." Naru said with an angelic smile.

After a couple of minutes of questions,

"Now if we are done, let's see, where should you sit, Naruto?" Then the boys in class began to yell, "ME!" "NO, ME!" "HE CAN SIT NEXT TO ME!" "NO ME!"

"ALRIGHT BE QUITE!" Iruka yelled, then he looked around and said, "You can sit next Sasuke since the two seats are empty." Then Iruka looked at Naru and said, "Go sit next to Sasuke or the empty seat."

Then Naru nodded and walked through the ail to a seat that was one next to Sasuke.

"Hi I'm Naru Uzumaki, what's yours?"

"Sasuke Uchiha"

"Nice to meet you." Then Naru sat on the seat, so that between Sasuke and Naruto was an empty seat, then they listen to Iruka as he teaches.

Next two years,

"NARU YOU FAIL!" Iruka said.

"W-w-why?" Naru said with a pout.

"Because look at your clone it's pitiful, and you only made one."

Then Naru began to have a sad look. "I understand." Then she walked out of the room.

In the Hokage tower,

Iruka and Naru came in the room.

"We did as planned." They both said at the same time to the Hokage.

"Very good job. Naru it's up to you now it's an A-ranked mission and if you passed it you can become a Genin."

"Of course. Um, am I to take the real one?"

"No I am going to replace the real one with a fake one." The Hokage showed it to him. "Remember this is what it looks like." Then Naru nodded.

"Alr,ight you are dismissed ." He went back to work.

When Iruka and Naru went out the door Iruka said, "You are really good at acting."

"Thank you, so are you."

"Thanks, be careful on your mission."

"Don't worry about it, I learned a Jutsu that is similar to Shadow Clones but the clones are solid."

"Really? Where did you learn that Jutsu?"

"Well from the Hokage. You can say it's for me to deceive Mizuki that I have the real one since its one of the Jutsus in there, when I 'read' it."

"That's really smart, did he make that idea?" Then Naru nodded with a smile. "See ya I have to go." Then Naru ran to her apartment.

In the Forest,

"Naru give me the scroll" Mizuki said on a branch looking at the scroll on her back. "I'm sorry, but I can't do that."

"Oh and why is that?" He said looking at Naru. "Because you are lying to me about me graduating."

"Why would you say that?" Mizuki said. "You have two big shurikens on your back, no headband for me as I can see, and I don't trust you."

"Are you sure, I'm the one who is lying to you?" Then Naru tilted her head in confusion. "The whole village is lying to you because of the decree the day you were born."

'Decree?' "And what is the decree?"

"The decree is that the nine-tailed fox is inside of you."

"No...no, no, no..." Naru chanted as she held he head. Then chakra began to whirl around her.

"The whole village lied to you, that's why they tried to attack you, and that's why they called you a monster, because you, Naru Uzumaki, are the nine-tailed fox. Even Iruka thinks of you as a monster, his parents died protecting this village from the nine-tailed fox, from you." Mizuki said.

In Naru's mind,

"What the? Where am I? Why am I in a sewer?" Naru said as she looks around herself.

Then Naru heard a growl up ahead as she wandered around. "What's that?" Then she walked toward the sound and saw a cage. "We finally meet."

"Who are you?" Naru said as she saw a big fox with nine-nails

"Me? I am the nine-tailed fox, but that's just my title, call me Haji, and who are you?" Then Naru walked up and said, "My name is Naru Uzumaki. Where are we?"

"We are in your mind. You are quiet a strange hum...(Sniff sniff)hmm, you don't smell like a human."

'That's impossible she can't be one of them, they were supposed to be extinct, but there is a possibility and she smells like he will turn in to one very soon.' "How old are you?"

"I'm turning 12 tomorrow, why?"

"So I was right, you're turning into a Chiropeteran." "A what? What's that?"

"A Chiropeteran, it's like a vampire, they suck blood to live and when they do, they turn the humans into one too but they can't control themselves and they only obey to the person that made them that way. But they can do that when they are 12, Chiropeteran can sing to control minds to the non-Chiropeteran, they can never age until they die and they can choose a Chevalier, partner, by giving their blood to them so they can never age until they die, also when they are injured they can heal quickly."

"Oh, are there more Chiropeterans that's like me?"

"I'm not sure anymore, I thought they all extinct, but when I smelled you to find out that the person I'm trapped is a Chiropeteran, so I'm not sure, but maybe you're the last of them."

"Oh, um since you know almost know everything about them can you be my Chevalier?"

"That's unheard of, a tailed animal as a Chevalier for a Chiropeteran, but that would mean I would be free, out of this place. Hmm...Alright." Then their was a glow, so bright that Naru covered her face, and then it shrunk and when it was gone. Naru uncovered her eyes to see a tall man.(Think of Haji from, 'Blood+')

"But I can't do it now, I don't have any fangs."

"That's alright, just unseal me so that I can help you, and when it's midnight, which is when you will have them, you can turn me into your Chevalier."

"Is that a deal?" "Yes"

"Okay" Then she walked up to the seal and took it out, then it all went black.

Out of Naru's mind,

"Your wrong." Naru said. "And how am I wrong?"

"Because..." Naru smirked then there was a strong wind, and infront of her was Haji. "I'm the nine-tailed fox." Haji finished for her.

"You are not, you don't even come close to being the nine-tailed fox."

"You are again wrong, I am the nine-tailed fox, I am just in my human form, and if you want proof here it is." Then Haji glowed again with blinding light, when it lowed it revealed a human sized fox with nine-tails, almost the same size as Naru just a couple of inches taller. "By the way, I can change sizes."

"Do you want any help, Haji?" Then he shook and said, "I can do it myself."

"Fine, but you have to just knock him out, no killing." Then Haji nodded and started to beat Mizuki up. After that Naru said, "Can you carry him in your human form? I don't want people to see you as the nine-tailed fox that killed most of the villagers in this village." Then Haji complied and carried Mizuki over his shoulder and followed Naru to the Hokage tower.

In the Hokage's office,

"Naru, I see you succeeded. Here is your head band." Then the Hokage gave Naru a black clothed headband and tied it around her neck.

"Thanks," Then Naru saw the Hokage looking at Haji who was still holding Mizuki, "this is Haji, he is the nine-tailed fox that was inside me." Then the Hokage had a suprised look on his face.

"H-h-how is that possible?"

Then Haji stepped in and said, "I'll explain, you see..."

After five minutes talking about the deal,

"Alright, I understand, even though I'm a little shocked that Mizuki told Naru about the decree, but does Naru have to drink blood to live?"

"No, she don't have to she can eat human food as an alternative food, but she has to at least have to drink blood once a month if she does that. She can drink my blood, and I won't have to worry about it since I can get my blood back with or with out eating."

"Hey, I'm still confused how am I a Chiropeteran?" Naru said.

"Well as I can remember, when Haji tried to destroy the village, and when you were born, a monster came to the village and began to attack people and drink their blood. It came to the hospital, it killed your mom when I got their, when it was distracted I killed it and some of the blood were on you and even some in your mouth. I saw you twitched for a minute, then when I checked your pulse I heard your heart beat and I thought it was nothing and that was it."

"The monster must be a Chiropeteran since you are one youself."

"Yeah, hey um why did you try to destroy the village?" Naru said looking at Haji. "I was controlled to do it unwillingly."

"By who?" The Hoage said. "I don't know, I just know that the person used the Sharingan to control me."

'Hmm...No one, but the first Hokage and Madara Uchiha can do that. But that's impossible, Madara can't be alive still, no one saw him for more than centuries.' The Hokage thought.

"Alright, It's getting late, we need to go and can you put Haji in my team, I don't want to be seperated with him." Naru said as she hugged his arm.

"Alright, I'll bring you and Haji to the Academy tomorrow at 8:50 from your apartment. When we are in class I will tell them that Haji is a new student, that I tested to see if he graduates as a Genin and tell Iruka to put him in your team. Is that alright?" He said as he gave Haji a black headband too who put it around his neck like Naru.

"Yep" Naru said as she jumped. "Hey Haji, can you turn into a 12 year old kid?"

Then there was a glow again and there stood a 12 year old Haji. "CUTE!" Naru said and she pounced on him, who fell.

"HEY!" The Hokage smiled at what he saw. Then they went to Naru's apartment, leaving Mizuki in his office.

Midnight at Naru's apartment,

"It's midnight now." Haji said, then Naru began to grow fangs and said, "I drink you blood and then I give you some of my blood, right?"

Then Haji nodded, then Naru walked up to Haji, she stood on her tippy toes, since he was a couple of inches taller, while putting her arms around his neck and bit his next to drink his blood.

After a couple of seconds, she pulled away then she cut the palm of her right hand with a kunai. Then she put it put it in her mouth and then she put her arms around his neck again and kissed him on the lips so he can have a drink of her blood.

When she let go, he twitched a bit then calmed down.

"So does that mean you're my Chevalier now?" Then Haji nodded and then Naru jumped while saying, "YAY!" When she was done jumping she said, "We have to sleep now, we're going to the Academy tomorrow." Then Naru took Haji's hand to her room and they both slept together.

Next morning in the Academy,

"Everyone we seem to have a new student who will be part of a Genin squads, can you introduce yourself?" Then he nodded.

"My name is Haji." Haji said.

"Sensei, why do we have a new student now? He didn't even do the Genin exam." Sakura said.

"I will answer that." The Hokage said who was next to Haji. "You see he was traveling around and when he came here yesterday night. I thought he could live here and become a ninja, so I tested him and he graduated him."

Then the class nodded in understanding. "I need to go now, I have some paper work to do." Then he left.

"Alright, Haji the only seat you can be is the one between Sasuke, and Naru." Then Haji nodded and when he sat Naru hugged his arm.

"As of today, you're all Ninjas. To get here, you all here faced difficult trials and hardships, but that's nothing. What comes next will be far more difficult, now you are only Genin, first rate Ninjas, all the Genin are to be grouped in a three man squads, except 1 since we have an odd number now, each squad will be lead by a Jounin, an elite Ninja." Iruka said.

"Huh?" Sakura and Ino said. 'Three man squad.'

Then Ino said to Sakura, "Well someone has to be in Sasuke's group, I wonder who."

"I don't know." Sakura said back to Ino then turned her head to glare at here. 'CHA! I'M GOING TO BE IN SASUKE'S GROUP! SO STAY AWAY FROM HIM, YOU HAG!' Her inner self yelled.

'Uhh, groups of three or four, their going to slow me down.' Sasuke thought.

"We want each squad to have a balance of strength and ability, that would set them up. I will now announce the squads..."

"Squad 7, Sakura Haruno," Then Sakura head raised, "Sasuke Uchiha," then Sakura cheered, "Naru Uzumaki" then Sakura groaned, thinking that she would steal Sasuke from her, while Sasuke blushed a light pink when he heard she's in his team, "and Haji." then Naru grinned while tightening her grip on Haji's arm.

Then Iruka continued, "Squad 8, Hinata Hyuuga," then Hinata said, "Yes sir." "Kiba Inuzuka," then Kiba chuckled, "and Shino Aburame." and Shino agusted his glasses.

Then Sakura looked behind her, grinned while give Ino a piece sign and chuckled a little bit.

"How did you get in his group?" Ino said angrily.

'CA-CHING! TRUE LOVE CONQUERS ALL!' Sakura's inner self said, while Ino growled.

"I don't get it, what do you see in a guy like that? He's not so special." Shikamarut said.

"You're so beyond clueless, Shikamaru. Don't you get it."

"No I don't get it, because I'm not a girl."

Then Ino sighed and said, " You're so full of yourself, jealousy is a terrible thing, I hate to be in your squad."

Then Iruka continued, "Now Squad 10, Ino Yamanaka, Shikamaru Nara," then Ino gasped at what she heard, "Ha, did you say something about hating to be on my Squad?" then Ino growled agian, "and Chouji Akamichi." the said person kept eating and Ino thought, 'Uhh, not him too.'

"After Lunch, you will meet your new Jounin teacher, until then class is dismissed."

"HAJI!" Naru yelled. "Yes"

"I'm hungry, do you want to come with me at Ichiraku's." "Sure" Then Naru went to Ichiraku's and ate 6 bowls of ramen, she was on her 7th one. "Naru, we have to go back to the Academy now to meet our Jounin teacher."

"Okay" Then she finished her seventh bowl and payed for it. "See ya, Teuchi, Ayame."

"Bye Naru." They said at the same time. Then Haji and Naru went to the Academy.

After two hours later,

Team 7 were the only ones left in class waiting for their sensei, even Iruka left.

Sakura was waiting for their sensei to come next to the door, Sasuke sitting on a random seat glancing at Naru, who was sleeping laying her head on Haji's shoulder, while Haji was wrapping an arm around her waist. Then she woke up and asked, "Haji, when are we going to meet our sensei?" "I don't know."

"Haji, wake me up when he comes." "Of course" Then she went back to sleep.

After ten minutes, the door opened to reveal a sivler/white haired middle aged man, with a mask that covered his lower part of his face and his headband covering up his left eye.

"Meet me on the roof." Then he poofed out of there.

Then Haji stood up and held Naru bridal style and walked out of the room, with Sasuke and Sakura infront of him, to the roof.

When they got there they saw the silver/white haired middle age man sitting on the fence reading his orange book. And when they went up, they stopped a few feet away from him and sat down. When they sat down Haji gently put Naru next to him and shook her, when she woke up she looked at him and then Kakashi. "Alright, let's introduce ourself, one at a time."

"Introduce ourselves? What are we supposed to say?" Sakura asked.

"Things you like, things you hate, dreams for the future, hobbies, things like that." He said.

"Why don't you start first? So we can see how it's supposed to work." Sakura said.

Then he said lazily, "Me? My name is Kakashi Hatake, my likes and dislikes...I don't feel like telling you that, things for the future, haven't really thought of that, and my hobbies...well I have lots of hobbies."

"That was lame, he just told us his name." Sakura whispered to the others.

"Alright you go first." Kakashi said looking at Sakura.

"I'm Sakura Haruno, what I like uhh, I mean the person I like is..." Looking at Sasuke who ignored her, "uhh my hobby is...my dream for the future is..." then laughed like a fangirl, thinking about it, then Kakashi said, "And what do you hate?"

"INO-PIG!"

'Hmmm, a fangirl, mostly all the girls her age only cares about boys than becoming a Kunoichi.'

"My name...is Sasuke Uchiha, I hate alot of things and I don't particurly like anything, what I have won't be a dream because I will make it a reality, I'm going to restore my clan and kill a certain someone."

'Just as I thought.' Kakashi thought.

'Sasuke is so COOL!' Sakura thought, while Naru and Haji wondered who this certain someone is and why he wants to kill that person.

"Next" Kakashi said as he looked at Haji.

"My name is Haji, I like to read, being around Naru and making her happy, I hate it when people disrespect Naru and when people hurt Naru, my goal for the future is to protect her from harm and my hobby is to train."

'Hmm is he a fanboy, he don't seem to be the type to be one, maybe he's just protective of her.' Kakashi thought.

'I can't let him have her, I need her to revive my clan.' Sasuke thought glaring at Haji, who just ignored him.

"Alright, last one."

"My name is Naru Uzumaki, I like my friends and Haji, I don't like people when they look down on me, my hobby is to train and my goal is to be the best ninja I can be and have a great life." Naru said with a smile, Haji smiled and patted her head, who blushed at the attention.

"Alright, each of you are unique in your own way, we will have our first mission tomorrow."

"What mission are we going to have?" Naru asked.

"It's a test that the four of us will do together, it's a survival exercise."

"I thought we were supposed to have a real mission not more practice, we already did this stuff in the Academy, that's how we got here." Sakura said.

"This isn't like your previous training."

"Then what kind is it then?" Naru asked once again.

The Kakashi chuckled behind his mask.

"What's so funny? It was just a normal question." Sakura said to Kakashi.

"Well if I told you the answer, you not going to like this. Of the twenty-eight graduates who just came here only nine are actually accepted to be Genin, the others would be weeded out and would be sent back to the Academy. In other words, this is a make it or brake it pass, fail test, and the percent of you failing are at least 66%."

Then Sakura had a shocked looked while Naruto and Sasuke tensed hearing that except Haji, who didn't care.

"I told you, you wouldn't like it." Kakashi said.

"Then what was that graduation test for anyway?" Sakura asked.

"Oh that, that was for selecting candidates that might become Genin or not. That how it works, and I decide if you pass or fail, be at the designated training spot at 5 AM and bring your Ninja gear."

'If I fail, I will be seperated from Sasuke and Naru would try and steal him away from me, this is a trial of love.' Sakura thought, while Sasuke clenched his hands.

"That's it you're dismissed, oh...tomorrow you better skip breakfast or else you'll puke."

Then Sakura ad Sasukes eyes widened, then Kakashi dissapeared.

"Haji lets go train." Naru said as she pulled Haji. Then he sighed and held Naru bridle style, who blushed and jumped off the roof to land on a tree branch theat was near the school and began to jump around the village to train.

Leaving Sasuke and Sakura on the school roof and do what they usaully do.
