Well hello there my sexy peoples and well sorry again for the wait. Life can be a bitch and when you're in college well it turns into Kyle's mom (don't get it you need to watch South Park). Anyway here is the next instillation of this story so please enjoy. I don't own anything yadah yadah yadah.

6 am the next morning

Migato, Nito, and Sanato were all at training ground three bright and early ready to begin their first training session. The greeted each other groggily and waited for a while for Naruto to arrive. After about an hour obvious aggregation had set in from Naruto's tardiness.

"Where the fuck is that lazy piece of shit?!" Sanato exclaimed

"Calm down Sanato he'll get here when he gets here." Migato said in an annoyed tone.

"Yeah Sanato just calm down," Nito began "but he is very late which is rather annoying"

"Sorry guys had a late start this morning!" Naruto said as he appeared before the three guenin.

"Well it's about time!" the three said in unison

"now everyone just calm down for a bit while I explain what it is we will be doing today," Naruto said as the three gave him their attention, "now today I need you all to take these bells from me if you don't have a bell by noon you get sent back to the academy."

"What?! There's only two bells?" Sanato exclaimed

"Which means one of us is getting sent back to the academy." Migato said calmly.

"But Naruto-sensei that's not fair." Nito said

"Well your ninja now so time to learn that life simply isn't fair." Naruto said nonchalantly, "anyway you may use any method including kunai and shuriken to obtain a bell and remember if you don't come at me with the intent to kill you will never get a bell, got it?"

"HAI!" the three said in unison.

"Alright then let's get started." Naruto said as he vanished out of sight

"So now what?" Sanato asked

"Well obviously he's a jonin so there's no way any of us can take him one on one." Migato said.

"so how are we going to get the bells?" Nito asked.

"you two can figure that out im going get one for me." Migato said

"you just said….!" Sanato

"There are other ways to get the bell other than fighting and you two just hold me back." Migato said leaving the two dumbfounded.

"What an asshole." Sanato digressed. "so any ideas Nito?"

"I'm going make sure Migato dosent get hurt." She said leaving Sanato there alone.

"Damnit guys! Fine I'll get both those bells and do this myself!" Sanato shouted.

Naruto sat in a nearby tree observing the whole exchange not entirely surprised at what just happened.

"Damn this is going to be hard" Naruto thought to himself trying to figure out how to make them realize they need to work together.

Naruto decided to try things a little differently than Kakashi did and went after Migato to show him just how outclassed he is. A little ways away in the cover of the trees Migato was trying to make a plan in order to get one of the bells. He had been there for several minutes until Nito showed up next to him with concern on her face.

"Migato, do you really think this is a good idea wouldn't it be best if we worked together?" Nito asked nervously.

"NO! You two are nowhere near me and will make it even harder!" Migato shouted scaring Nito.

Naruto arrived and observed the conversation. Unhappy with Migato's response Naruto jumped down and immediately pinned down Migato.

"Are you really sure you can do this on your own kid?" Naruto said with a sinister tone.

Migato used a replacement jutsu and quickly threw five kunai in Naruto's direction which were lazily stopped by the blonde jonin as he threw a kunai past him and instantly teleported to it grabbing him again.

"You may be the top of your class but you really are an idiot." Naruto said as he released him and disappeared again.

"Get back here coward!" Migato shouted.

"Shut the fuck up Migato!" Nito shouted, "Isn't it obvious that you stand no chance against him so please come back with me and find Sanato so we can figure this out together."

"N….." Migato started before getting a stern slap in the face from the enraged kunoichi.

"She and Sakura will get along great…." Naruto thought to himself as he watched.

Migato sat there for a second and reluctantly nodded as the two left together to find Sanato. The searched for a few minutes and found him sitting in a clearing thinking to himself.

"Sanato! Sorry I left you but we really need to work together on this." Nito said dragging Migato along.

"I don't want to work with him." Sanato said defiantly

"Sanato we don't have a choice if we don't work together here we will all end up back at the academy!" Nito shouted

"Fine…." Sanato digressed as he pouted on the ground.

They all say down and began discussing how they would go about getting the bells. Naruto sat in a nearby tree listening into their conversation interested in how the plan on getting ahold of the bells. The sat and planned for several minutes before splitting up and hiding in random parts of the woods. Naruto sat for a moment thinking of how to get in the way of whatever they had planned. Naruto decided to go after Nito and wait and see what was to didn't take very long for him to find the kunoichi hiding on a branch of a thick tree searching diligently for any signs of movement. He sat for a moment and realized the other two were not very far and could get here way before he could really do anything. Despite knowing what was going on Naruto appeared right behind Nito.

"Well I must say I'm surprised at how well you convinced those two." Naruto said as he put his hand on Nito shoulder.

Not even a second after both Migato and Sanato swooped in both going straight for the bells. Naruto lazily blocked their attack but wasn't expecting Nito to go for the grab while the other two were going for the frontal strike. Naruto disappeared and appeared by a kunai a short distance away impressed by his teams plan. Unfortunately his happiness was short lived as he realized Nito managed to get one of the bells and they were now fighting over it. Naruto wasn't too surprised and decided to inform them that the test was over.

"Hey you three idiots stop fighting you all pass." Naruto said appearing before them again.

"Who's going back to the…. Wait what?" Migato said.

"You all pass, the point of this was to make you all realize the importance of teamwork. Sanato, Migato, you both have some work to do, you should learn from your team mate here she was the only one who really got the idea without here you all would have failed." Naruto said smacking both the boys on the head and laughing at them.

"So were really ninja now?" Sanato asked.

"Yes we will have our first mission the day after tomorrow get some rest and train." Naruto stated as he disappeared leaving them to do as the pleased.

Naruto sat in a nearby tree observing his team celebrate and squabble as he turned to see Kakashi standing next to him.

"I must say you didn't do halve bad, you went a bit easy on them no?" Kakashi stated.

"Mabey but they need to learn teamwork, I just need to make the see how important it was." Naruto responded.

"I suppose it may work I'll be keeping an eye on you and them though." Kakashi said calmly, "oh and if you were wondering lady Tsunade asked me to inform you that Sakura took the week off."

"Why tell me that?" Naruto asked slightly confused

"She just thought you would like to know" Kakashi said disappearing in a cloud of smoke.

"Well that was informative." Naruto thought as he continued to watch his team as they began to leave.

"You sure are a lot easier than Kakashi-sensei." A familiar voice said catching Naruto's attention.

"How long were you watching Sakura?" Naruto said slightly surprised by her presence.

"The whole time." Sakura said as she sat down next to Naruto.

"I suppose for the entrance im easier but their trannning will be harder I have to make sure that we don't have another Sauske on our hands." Naruto said pulling a small bottle of sake out his poket.

"Kakashi is right you are almost as bad as lady Tsunade." Sakura said looking teasingly at Naruto.

"Oh shut it I don't drink that much, anyway how do you like Nito?" Naruto asked curiously.

"She will certainly keep them in line why ask?" Sakura said.

"She's the one who wants to become a medic-nin." Naruto responded.

"Well I think she'd do well I look forward to it." Sakura said with a bright smile.

"So Kakashi mentioned you took a few days off." Naruto said.

"Yeah I just needed a break and thought maybe you could use some help." Sakura said looking down and blushing slightly.

"Well.. If you want to help out I don't mind of course i can use all the help I can get." Naruto said looking at his hand while he twiddled his thumbs.

"Naruto-Sensei! Can I ask you something!?" Nito shouted scaring Naruto slightly.

"Sure thing come on up!" Naruto responded regaining his balance.

"Is their anyway to get those two to get along?" Nito asked sheepishly.

"Unfortunately boys that age tend to be like that and always fight." Sakura interjected, "just make sure it stays as a healthy rivalry and not any real fighting it will be fine."

"Thank you uhh…." Nito began.

"Sakura I was a team mate of your sensei." Sakura stated

"Sakura, like the legendary medical-nin second only to lady hokage?" Nito exclaimed.

"Well I wouldn't say I'm that great." Sakura said with a huge grin on her face.

"That cocky grin of yours says otherwise." Naruto said giggling, "Anyway Nito she agreed to help you train in medical ninjutsu after you get the basics down."

"Thank you so much Naruto-Sensei, Sakura-Sensei." Nito bowed as she went to leave.

"One more thing Nito give Sanato a chance you'll regret it if you don't." Sakura said as her and Naruto waved off Nito.

Naruto and Sakura sat there in a comfortable silence for a moment just staring at the sky. It had been awhile since the two had time like this just to sit and talk and now that they did neither were sure what to say to the other. As the silence crept on Sakura looked at her old team mate and admired how much he had grown over the years and how much more mature he was or at least how good he was at acting mature. After a few more minutes Naruto looked at Sakura for a moment and then back down at his feet.

"Are you busy this afternoon?" Naruto asked nervously

"Um.. No I'm free why?" Sakura responded hopefully.

"Well I was wondering if you wanted to go train together and maybe get a bite to eat after, it's been awhile since we have gotten to catch up and this might be my last free afternoon for a while." Naruto responded looking at her.

"Sure thing! I'm kind of hungry now though can we get something to eat real quick?" Sakura responded cheerfully.

"Of course, lead the way Sakura-chan!" Naruto said brightly as the pair headed off into town.

Sakura had led Naruto to the dango shop for a snack so the two sat down and order. As they were sitting and chatting about what they had been doing the past few months, two familiar faces entered the store slightly surprising the two old friends.

"Kakashi-sensei, Anko-Sensei!" Sakura shouted waving in their direction

The pair of older ninja decided to go sit with their two juniors and chat for a while.

"Well hey their Sakura, gaki." Anko said with an evil grin.

"Shut it snake lady I'm a jonin same as you now, ya know!" Naruto pouted gaining a chuckle from Sakura.

"You're always a brat to me!" Anko responded, "Anyway you two seem rather friendly today." She poked teasingly

"So do you two" Naruto pointed out though obviously flustered by Anko's comment.

"I didn't know you had a thing for Anko Kakashi-sensei." Sakura poking fun at her old sensei.

"We're just here as friends, we had a mission together and decided to grab a bite to eat before reporting in." Kakashi responded trying not to sound flustered.

"Just the two of you on a mission sound romantic!" Sakura poking more fun at the two.

"He's just too shy to admit he's got a thing for me." Anko said teasingly towards Kakashi.

"Don't feed the flame!" Kakashi said now obviously flustered, "what about you two seem to be getting along very well hope we aren't interrupting yalls date!"

"We were actually leaving came for a snack before going for some training!" Sakura responded as the pair's faces both went bright red.

The group said their goodbyes as Naruto and Sakura both headed towards the training ground where he had learned his rasen-shuriken (where Yamato made the water fall). The two headed their together in a comfortable silence and moving at a good pace. When they arrived they started some basic taijutsu drills and did some sparing to warm up afterwards Sakura asked Naruto to help her with a few jutsu so she could have a bit more range. He showed her a quick and easy wind technique and told her to practice it and it should keep most chunin at least at a safe distance. As the day burned away the two continued basic chakra control training and other things to help with endurance in the field. After awhile the two called it a day and sat down by the water fall.

"I remember when Capitan Yamato made this waterfall!" Naruto said looking at the water nostalgically

"I remember about a thousand of you trying to split it and failing miserably!" Sakura teased as she scooted in a bit closer.

"Hey I got it eventually ya know!" Naruto said looking at her realizing how close she was.

"Yeah goes to show how amazing you can be." She said inching closer as she looked up at her old friend.

"Well I'm not all that I mean I could never do what you do!" Naruto said unsure of what to say or do.

The two sat there for a moment their faces inches from each other as they stared into each other's eyes.

"And…" Naruto started but was cut off my Sakura's lips.

Sakura had pulled Naruto in and were now locked in a passionate kiss. Naruto wrapped his arms around his old friend and the girl he had always loved and got lost in her lips. Sakura moaned slightly as she moved herself closer to him and allowing the kiss to become deeper. After a few moments they broke off and stared at each other for what seemed like eternity to them.

"So now what…." Naruto stated unsure of what his next move was.

And that's a wrap! Sorry again for the wait on this hope you all enjoyed this chapter. Took me awhile to figure out how much into the guenin team I'm going to get so this is what I came up with. Not sure how much more detailed I'm going to get on them but I'd guess maybe one or two more chapters more devoted to them until way later down the line. Anyway to my return reader's thank you for sticking with me, for everyone else thanks for reading and hope you stick around for the next chapter!
