Love you for the reviews! And thank you for the Favs and Follows too everybody!

Now, if anyone remembers my old Naruto story that is not on here any more, they might find the names of the OCs familiar... There are minor differences between them now and back then though. I made them a bit more believable I think, back then I hadn't put much thought into the characters... :P And another thing! I am now the main author of this story, so updates will be slow... I apologize if that upsets anyone...

P.S. - We do not own Naruto, but we do own the OCs!

~Seiko's POV~

It was 3:35 A.M. when I got up. Super early, I know, but the early bird get's the worm! Well, catches it anyway... Anyway, I woke up that early so I could train my skills, it was the only time I really had to focus on them. Believe it or not I zoomed through the academy stuff, but I'm still a Genin since the village was at a time of peace and such things like that. There was no need to rush through the academy like when Kakashi was younger.

After my training I was beat, my arms aced and my legs felt heavy, but I didn't injure myself today! Yay! There was one time where I was training so hard that I passed out and when I got home that evening, daddy was freaking out. Like, FREAKING out. Majorly. And that is why he now knows where I train. Although, I don't always stay there, if he were to some by and see the things I was working on I think he would be speechless. Besides, I want to save my special skills for stuff like the Chunin exam!

When I got home I started to take a shower and got dressed afterwards like usual. After that I went to the kitchen and looked around. Iruka had already left, so it was just me around now. As I looked around, I tried to think of what I should take for lunch. 'Hey, Luna, you there?'

'Yeah, I am here... What ya want?' Luna asked. If you don't already know, Luna is the name I gave the voice in my head. Okay... I admit to being a lunatic... But hey. I am still, AWESOME!

'Well, I was wondering what I should take for lunch? Got any ideas?'

It was silent before Luna began to talk at a mile a minuet. 'We should pack fish and crab, cooked rice, lobster sandwiches, some crab and potato soup. We should also pack some ramen for Naruto, some sweet dango, some green tea to drink...' then it was silent before she added, 'That should be it...'

'Thanks, Luna...' I thought as I sweat-dropped. Like I would be able to fit all of that onto a bag! Instead of grabbing all of that, I got the ramen for Naruto, some sandwiches for me and my friends, sweet dango, and green tea. By the time I got it all in the bag, it was 7:25. Giving a sigh, I gathered all of my gear I would need and headed off to the academy a bit more energetic then usual...

Because we were getting assigned our groups today!

~At the Academy~

When I got there, I sat in the classroom between my two best friends, Niko and Shizuru. Did I mention I call Niko Kitty? Cause I do! And I call Shizuru Pup. We talked as I scanned the room to see that everyone was here, even Naruto! Though he looked grossed out a bit... I face-palmed before hitting my head on the table, "Dammit."

Niko tilted her head to the side, "What's wrong, Sei?"

"Oh, nothing. Just missed out on something I had been waiting to see."

Shortly after that, Iruka came into the room and was about to announce the teams, the whole while I waved at him. I could hear some of the other kids in here whispering about how I was only here cause I was Iruka's daughter. They can go eat a piece of poo!

He flipped a few sheets on his clipboard and said a few words about how they would be our family and blah, blah, blah. Until finally, the moment of truth!

"Team 7, Naruto Uzumaki, Sakura Haruno..." Naruto cheered and Sakura's head nearly hit the table in disappointment. "and Sasuke Uchiha." Now it was Nauto's turn to sulk and Sakura's turn to cheer.

He then announced all the teams. Team 8, Hinata Hyuga, Shino Aburame, and Kiba Inuzuka. Team 10, Shikamaru Nara, Choji Akimichi, Ino Yamanaka. And then he got to our team... "Team 11, Seiko Akiyama, Niko Gensu, and Shizuru Inoshi." This caused me and Niko to intertwine hands and cheer and Shizuru had a large smile plastered to her face! She should smile more often, she looks so much prettier that way! "These people will be like your family, as well as your comrades. I hope you will keep them close in the future. Now, your team leaders will be here for you after lunch. Finish eating and come back to wait."

~After Lunch~

It was just us and Naruto's team now. Everybody else got to go off with their Sensei! Where was ours?! I was sitting in the desk with a miserable look on my face as my head rested on the table and my arms were out in front of me. Letting out a long sigh, Shizuru and Niko both looked at me.

Shizuru raised a brow. "You're not usually so depressed. Cheer up and smile. It's starting to get creepy..."

That made me think of earlier and a sly smile curled my lips, "Oh?" I turned to her and rested my head on my hand, "Well you should mile more often then too. You're really pretty when you do. And besides," I got closer to her as she watched my suspiciously, "I think he was looking at you."

Her eyes suddenly got big and a dust of pink spread on her cheeks. She scoffed and looked at the floor, "Don't be ridiculous!"

I looked at Niko who was sitting on the desk crossed-legged, "What do you think, Kitty? Was he looking?" To be honest I had no idea if he was looking or not, I just wanted to tease her. It was fun! I gave her a wink so she would catch on.

She raised her hand and shooed the wink away with a smile, "No need for that, Sei! I know for a fact he was looking!"

"Really?!" Both me and Shizuru said aloud.

"Yeah!" She then scratched the back of her head. "Although... I don't know what he was thinking..."

Shizuru deflated slightly, but there was also a small amount of relief there as well. I was going to say something else when I heard a voice in the hall, "Don't tell me you agree with him!" I didn't recognize that voice.

But, the next voice, I would be dead if I didn't recognize it. "I was only stating that after all this time you still look like a girl from behind. And from the front a little too."

"You would think I look like a girl all the time. I swear, those books have brainwashed you!"

Suddenly the door opened and a head popped in. Silver hair and a mask. Holy mother of God! It was Kakashi! Inner fan-girl scream go! An eraser fell on his head and I muffled a laugh. The person we could not see laughed, "I think we kept them waiting a bit too long."

Kakashi stepped in with a sigh, allowing the other person to walk through. My jaw dropped. This guy was amazing looking! His hair was a bright red color, like Kushina's. it was up in a high ponytail and fell straight and perfect behind him, messy bangs were kept out of his black eyes by his headband. He wore the same clothes as Kakashi, only the vest was unzipped. He raised his hand and said, "I'm here for team 11?"

I was up out of my seat as fast as the others. We were all before him in an instant, looking him up and down. By now I was really starting to wonder about what would change in the Naruto story line. I was here, and so where the three around me. So everything was just kind of up in the air now!

~Thirty Minuets Later~

At the moment, I am eating with My two best friends and new Sensei on the roof of one of the nearby buildings. He was watching us, like he was sizing us up to see how skilled we are or something. He'll see soon enough though! But, I highly doubt I'm ready to fight a Jonin yet! I'm only "12" years old after all.

"Now that we have all eaten, how about we get to know each other a bit?" We nodded, eagerly wanting to know more about the mysterious man before us. "I"ll go first of course." He said with a hand on his chest in a mater-of-fact tone. "My name is Tenshi Kukazu, I enjoy running and sweet people as well as sweet food. My dislikes would be self-harm, smoking counts! And being mistaken for a girl..." His face darkened and it was the first time I saw him with a look other then content or happiness there. It was pretty creepy... but that just made him cooler! The look vanished and he continued, "Anyway, my hobbies would be target practice. I could tell you more, but I would rather not, it's personal. So, how about you tell my your likes, dislikes, and hobbies?" he asked with a smile. "How about you start?" He said looking at Niko.

She smiled at him, "My name is Niko Gensu, but my friends call me Kitty! I like to sing and hum when I feel like it, as well as draw. I also like my friends who are in this group!" She smiled even bigger and is was contagious! it made the rest of us smile too. "My dislikes are bullies and flowers... but only because I cant breath when they are around..." She gave a frown, it always bugged her that she was allergic to them. "And I guess my hobby would be helping out with my family at our clinic!"

He then looked to Shizuru, "Okay, your turn, Brownie." He said in a teasing manner.

She frowned, "My name is Shizuru Inoshi, NOT Brownie." She stated while giving him a dark look. making him lift his hands in a gesture of surrender. Her arms crossed, "And that's all I'm saying since you called me that." her brown eyes looked away from him and she just stared at the trees nearby.

Tenshi scratched the back of his head before looking at me. I smiled and shrugged, "She does that when she gets mad. It will wear off... eventually. Anyway! My name is Seiko Akiyama Umino, I like my best friends Kitty, and Pup, my daddy Iruka, as well as my other friends Shika and Shino, I have 7 things I like the most... Drawing, Sweets, Animals -any shape and size- shinny things, blood, the moon and water! My dislike are fan-girl's and fan-boys! Pink, anything girly, ice-cream and I absolutely HATE duck-butt!" I crossed my arms over my chest and pouted a bit before saying, "And just so you know, Duck-butt is Sasuke Uchiha. One of the man things you have to watch out with me is my anger or if I get upset... ask the HOKAGE what happens or you can ask Shino and Shika... My Hobbies are training and scaring daddy half to death! It's fun!" I said while smiling evilly.

He nodded and looked like he had a lot to think about. "Okay. Meet me here tomorrow and we will do the surveying thing tomorrow and I suggest you don't eat, you'll get sick!" With that he stood up and seemed to vanish into thin air! For a minuet after that I was just looking around for him, but he was nowhere to be seen!

What he said suddenly clicked in my head and I turned to my two closest friends.

"Hey you guys better eat, cause I am." We all said it at the same time before we waved goodbye and headed home.
