Bloody Seal
 
Chapter 4: all we need is a little team work.
 
Disclaimer: So after I kicked Kishimoto in his `manly hood' (cough, cough) I escaped with Naruto to Hawaii, so here we are in vacation! YAY! But he keeps saying believe it! At the end of every fucking sentence! AAAAAHHHH!
 
Pairings: vote for parings, and people Naruto can't have a freaking girlfriend! Get that little piece of info in your skulls! I don't like that `hook up every character possible' stuff, plus Naruto cant have a girlfriend because of the plot, and trust me this story is going to have a semi bad ending because of SOMETHING that will happen in the chuunin exams, then the plot will pick up in the Sasuke (may not be a `Sasuke' retrieval arc, hint, hint.) retrieval arc.

Summary: Naruto, Sasuke and Sakura are in a tight situation in the `true' genin test, but Naruto sees this as an opportunity to test his new team mates and their team work.

))))) side story (((((
 
Two years before the Uchiha massacre
 
Under the preverbal old oak Naruto and Sasuke were lying down staring up at the clouds. Over the past five years ever since they first met Sasuke had been closed off and rarely if ever talked leaving Naruto to do all the communication. Recently however Sasuke had begun to `loosen' up and begun to talk to Naruto as much as he had him, well not as much, but he still talked.
 
“Naruto, why do you think people call this fire country? It's completely covered in trees. It's Hidden Leaf, Not Hidden Fire.” The black haired boy questioned out loud as his eyes fell on a blurry leaf shaped cloud.
 
“Well, because, it sounds cool. And Hidden Fire doesn't sound friendly. The village is apparently the largest hidden...” Naruto slowly stopped talking allowing both of them to fall into a comfortable silence.
 
The henge test could be problematic Naruto from what I've seen has been unable to properly apply the correct hand-seals to activate the Henge is it enough to stop him from continuing up th...
 
“SASUKE-KUN!” In synchronization screamed a pair of Pale blond and pink haired girls. Ino and Sakura? Wha-Oh god no. Both girls had started walking towards Sasuke, pushing each other at random intervals before breaking out into a sprint. Twitching slightly, Naruto pretended to stretch, `accidentally' placing his leg in front of the two girl's path. The girls in question were arguing too much to notice their impending doom.
 
Two feminine bundles of clothing tumbled forwards towards Sasuke. Sasuke having gotten an idea of Naruto's intent had already moved out of the way. Without Sasuke to break their fall both of the girls ended up slamming into the trunk behind Sasuke Crack! Twin screams of pain erupted from the girls vocal cords as they crumpled to the ground, clutching at their heads.
 
Snorting lightly Sasuke turned his back on the girls and began to walk towards the Academy. Naruto who was laying on the ground clutching his side in an attempt to hold in the laughter slowly slid to his feet and followed Sasuke, Chucking lightly Naruto whispered into Sasukes ear “Good team work.” and nudged him in the ribs. Sasuke shot him a mild glare before smiling and releasing a small chuckle.
 
 
))))) story start (((((
 
 
The three members of team seven had hidden well; Kakashi shifted his eyes from side to side as if expecting to be attacked.
 
On the tallest branch of a tree sat Sakura who was reading a scroll that had a genjutsu on it. A smirk formed in the corners of her mouth. “Perfect…”
 
On the opposite side on the field was Sasuke who was calculating a good vital spot to hit without killing their new teacher. `This is giving me a migraine!' he thought as he clutched his head with his hands. He started thinking what his brother would have done; of course this made him sad because his brother and whole family were killed by a snake man. He sighed as he continued thinking of a plan.
 
The masked jounin stopped being on the look out and from his pouch pulled a copy of come come paradise Icha Icha edition.
 
On the shadow of a tree was hidden Naruto who was cracking his skull to figure this test out.
 
You know… even I figured this out…”
 
“You did? Tell me!”
 
Kyuubi slapped her forehead with one of her tails, “don't tell me you haven't noticed…?”
 
“What?”
 
Look, isn't it weird that they went through the trouble of making a THREE man team if they were going to kick one member out?”
 
Naruto thought for a moment, `well now that you say it, it does sound weird… but what do I care? I could care less right now!'
 
“My claws. Your gut.”
 
Naruto gulped and stood up, “ok, ok! I'll go find Sasuke and Sakura. But I'll have some fun with Kakashi and them first.” He smirked

Meanwhile…
 
 
The Uchiha heir was franticly searching for Kakashi who had literally disappeared in the blink of an eye. `Left' he glanced to his left, `right' he glanced to his right, `behind' he looked behind himself, `up' he looked up.
 
Suddenly a voice came from under him, “How about under!?” before he could jump away something grabbed him by the leg “Doton: earth decapitation no jutsu!” he was buried only leaving his head out. “Kakashi…” Sasuke growled.
 
Kakashi kneeled, “A ninja must see beneath the underneath.” He stood up, “Ja ne!”
 
Sasuke had an outburst; I mean who wouldn't if the had just been buried alive making him look like a severed head. “Come here you *&!@%^&*!!!”
 
By the time he finished that sentence Kakashi was out of sight, Sasuke scoffed, `great.'
 
In the distance Kakashi whispered, “Sasuke-teme…” and he laughed for a bit.

Sakura was searching for Kakashi so she could put her plan into action when suddenly a kunai graced her cheek; she tripped and fell into a trap hole. She looked up to see Kakashi going through a set of seals “Magen: Kokoni Arazu no Jutsu” Sakura blinked, `what genjutsu is that?' suddenly she felt something climb her legs.
 
She looked down…
 
“FROGS! GET THEM OFF! EWEWEWEWEW!!!!”
 
Kakashi walked away and did a cancel seal, in a poof of smoke `Kakashi' turned into Naruto. A smirk formed in the corners of his mouth as he walked away while adjusting his head band.
 
Kyuubi sweatdropped how the hell did strawberry girl pass the exam…?”
 
`I'll guess we'll never know…' Naruto chuckled a bit.
 
Kyuubi laughed sarcastically, “har, har, har, very funny kit…'
 
(I'll give a cookie to the people who got the pun!)

In another are was Kakashi reading his Icha Icha paradise book, he looked around in suspicion.
 
`That's weird… by now at least the Uchiha would have tried to attack me…'
 
0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0
 
Naruto was walking around trying to find his next `practice target' “now were could Kakashi be?” he then imagined everything he had seen his jounin instructor do in the last day.
 
The answer came to both Kyuubi and him, reading porn.
 
“UGH! Forget about him and pass the test so you can get to the fucking chuunin exams!”
 
`Ok, I'll do it… but I was finally having fun. Anyways lets see how the girl is doing?' a smirk formed on his lips as he walked towards the trap hole Sakura was trapped in.
 
0-0-0-0-0-0-0
 
 
Naruto sweatdropped as he saw the sight before him, right in front of him, was Sakura, who was in fetal position sobbing something along the lines of `the evil frogs' and `mommy no more'
 
Kyuubi inside of Naruto was laughing her ass of just by glancing at the pink haired genin. How the heck did someone easily affected by such a simple genjutsu become a ninja!?
 
Sakura glanced at Naruto and instantly panicked as she drew a kunai, “Stay away from me you evil frog!”
 
Naruto's sweat drop got bigger; he sighed and decided that this was enough torture for his teammate without permanently scarring her. He mad the cancel seal, “Kai!”
 
Sakura looked at him and blushed of embarrassment, well who wouldn't after they called their `friend' and teammate a giant evil frog. She rubbed the back of her head as she laughed nervously. “Gomenasai Naruto-san. Kakashi put a genjutsu on me.” The upper corner of her mouth twitched.
 
Naruto wanted to burst out laughing at Sakura for falling for such mediocre genjutsu but decided to contain himself and help her out of the trap hole. He extended a hand to Sakura.
 
She obviously didn't want to be stuck here so she grabbed it and was lifted up. She glanced at Naruto whose mask was still on up-side down. “Umm…Naruto-san, your mask it's the wrong way.”
 
Naruto chuckled a bit and rubbed the back of his head. “Hey Sakura-san, could you turn a round for a second?”
 
“Why?”
 
Naruto sighed as he did two hand seals, Sakura vision went pitch black.
 
“What? hey who turned off the lights!?!?”
 
Naruto put one hand on Sakura's mouth so she wouldn't have another outburst as he removed and fixed his mask with the other.
 
If Naruto actually WANTED to pass the exam he would have been worried by what he heard next.
 
“Come back here you ^*&%&” all said in Sasuke's voice.
 
(Yes Sasuke is OOC here, why? Because his clan wasn't murdered by his brother and he never seeked revenge)
 
A loud clang of metal hitting metal was heard and several birds flew up from the trees.
 
Naruto finished fixing his mask and dispelled the genjutsu he had on Sakura who looked around like the whole entire world had grown another head. She blinked, “shouldn't we go help Sasuke-kun?”
 
Naruto sighed as he stood up and nodded, he smirked. Maybe he would get to embarrass the legendary Uchiha!

Where ever Sasuke is…
 
 
Sasuke was hopelessly fighting Kakashi; it was kunai vs. kunai and guess which kunai was winning?
 
“This is for making me a severed heading you @#$! ($!” Sasuke tried to stab Kakashi in the arm but Kakashi blocked it by grabbing his arm, taking his kunai and throwing him against a tree.
 
“Sasuke-kun!” Sakura screamed as she aided her `lover' (in your dreams! HA! Or maybe they could…)
 
Naruto stood besides them, scanning the field.
 
No Kakashi.
 
He sighed as he kneeled, “ano sa, I bet we can get the bells with team work?”
 
Sasuke stood up, “pass. I don't need help.” He walked away coolly as he spoke.
 
“What about you Sakura-san?”
 
She nodded as she knew she had no chance alone.
 
Naruto sat down at the foot of a tree, “how much time is there left?”
 
She looked at the sun before speaking, “one hour.”
 
“Can you come up with a plan?”
 
“Ok I just need to know his weaknesses…”
 
Naruto smirked, “that book he was reading earlier…”
 
0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0-0
 
A few minutes later Naruto held a stick on his hand that he used to draw the plan, he threw the stick away and out of his pouch he took out a scroll. “Ok if we need to contact each other we use this.” He opened the scroll, bit his thumb and swiped his blood on it. In a poof of smoke a chakra linked communicator appeared. “Just pour some chakra on it and we can talk, `kay?”
 
Sakura curtly nodded as she took one. They both went in different directions.
 
A few minutes later Naruto caught sight of Kakashi who was reading his (coughdirtycough) book. He smirked; he forced some chakra through his vocal cords and into the communicator as the message arrived to Sakura.
 
 
I have sight on the targets, and just as expected he is a little distracted, proceed to the next phase.
 
 
Sakura replied.
 
 
Hai! I have finished the traps! Lure him into the clearing!
 
 
Ok!
 
 
Naruto smirked as he signaled several kage bunshins he had around the area to attack. The bunshins threw several shuriken as Kakashi walked backwards to avoid them while still reading his book.
 
 
Sakura-san now!

Wait, they are using team work! But wait were is the Uchiha kid? Wait this shadow! I looked up. Oh shit! I can't move!

Normal POV
 
 
A huge tree branch was on collision course with Kakashi. Both Sakura and Naruto shut their eyes close waiting for th-
 
BANG!!
 
Never mind.
 
Both of them hurried and grabbed a bell, Naruto cheeked Kakashi's pulse just in case, “yep! He is K.O!”
 
Sakura gave a sigh of relief, it was ok that they had the bells but they didn't want to murder their sensei.

At noon…
 
 
Sasuke was tied to a post, Naruto was trying his best to not burst out laughing and Sakura was angry that her Sasuke-kun was tied securely to a post.
 
The only thing they had in common at the moment was their stomachs rumbling.
 
Kakashi stood in front of them cracking his neck, “oh, you guy sound really hungry.”
 
The three of them glared at him.
 
“Listen.” At that moment they stopped trying to burn a hole through his head and paid attention.
 
“Sasuke, you where too busy trying to get vengeance for me supposedly making you a severed head.”
 
Naruto let a chuckle escape at this, “you two, did ok…” he rubbed his neck again.
 
Both of them laughed nervously, “gomenasai sensei.” The upper corner of her mouth twitched when she spoke.
 
He walked towards a blue-ish stone that had names carved in it. “Look at this, all the names carved into this stone; these are all ninjas of the village that are considered a hero.”
 
Sakura spoke up, “why sensei?”
 
“Let me finish, these aren't normal heroes.”
 
Sasuke dared to ask, “Then what are they?”
 
“…” Kakashi's face darkened
 
Sakura worried a bit, “umm… sensei?”
 
“These are heroes… that were killed in action.”
 
The mood of the genins turned gloomy and dark, “this is a memorial, and the name of my best friend is here.”
 
Sakura's and Sasuke's eyes filled with sorrow and grief while Naruto made a small stifled gasp.
 
Kakashi turned around, “ok, I'll give you another chance, but… you all have to work as a team.” “But it will be harder to get them. Those who aren't tied up can eat, but don't give any to Sasuke.”
 
`Why me…?'
 
“It's punishment for trying to do it himself.” He walked towards team 7 “if you do, you fail.”
 
Sasuke wanted to loose his cool and rip Kakashi apart, but… he was tied up. (Oops too obvious)
 
He then poofed away.

Hokage tower (can't come up with a better name…)
 
The hokage sat in front of piles, and piles of paper work. He grabed one that said `new genin teams'
 
“hmm… Naruto got team seven?” he read the name of the other members of team seven, “this will be interesting.”

Training grounds seven…
 
 
Naruto and Sakura were enjoying their food while Sasuke, well at least he could SMELL the food.
 
Sasuke POV
 
Damn you to hell Kakashi! First you make me a severed head on the ground, find me again pretend you didn't, get one of you filthy poop smelling summon mutts to dig me up and then tie me to a post! ARGH!!! And Sakura and Naruto are eating in front of me like nothing is going on!
 
Sakura asked me if I was hungry eh? I'll never admit it! “Not really pinky!” my stomach disagreed. Way to go me! Woot…
 
 
Sakura POV
 
He says he's not hungry but I know he is! Geez! He is just as stubborn as Naruto before he went missing! I sighed, well boys will be boys wont they? Might as well; offer him some food.
 
 
Naruto POV
 
Hehe! This is too funny to be true! Come on, its not every day that you see the only Uchiha in whole planet tied up. And miserable as a bonus! Plus that earth decapitation I learned from Kyuubi did a good job on embarrassing him that was almost too good to be true. Hmm… I wonder how he got out. Anyways I should at least give him some food...
 
 
Normal POV
 
Naruto and Sakura offered their food to Sasuke at the same time almost like they were connected or something. (Do not take this as a sing of NaruXSaku because Naruto won't be paired up in this story)
 
Sasuke looked at them for a moment as if they had grown another head, but his stomach interrupted the moment of quite.
 
The two of them (Sasuke and Sakura) busted out laughing while the third (Naruto) chuckled softly.
 
Suddenly the sky turned grey and out of a frightening large cloud of smoke came out Kakashi who looked extremely pissed.
 
Sakura screamed out of the intensity of the wind, Sasuke hit his head against the post by accident and Naruto jumped of from the scared and went on defensive.
 
“YOU…!”
 
The threesome braced themselves, “pass!” the smoke cleared up and the sunshine was revealed.
 
Naruto's POV
 
 
Oookkk… I defiantly didn't expect that… he scared the shit out of us just to say `You pass!' that's it sensei or no sensei I'm going to kick his ass later! 1) for probably scarring Sasuke and Sakura for life, even tough that was me… hehe… and 2) for passing me! ARGH!!!
 
 
Sakura's POV
 
Wait? Did he just say `you pass'? He scarred me probably for life with that genjutsu and he has the guts to do that!
 
Inner Sakura POV
 
KICK HIS ASS! MAKE HIM PAY!!! BWAHAHA!!!! CHA!!! I'LL CHOP HIS-
 
Sasuke POV
 
We passed? Yes! Now I finally can prove myself worthy of the name Uchiha and avenging my clan by killing that snake man! I can finally avenge my family and clan! And my team mates don't seem ba- AHH! Wait they didn't untie me!
 
Normal POV
 
Kakashi, Naruto and Sakura were laughing all the way while leaving behind a very pissed Uchiha. “HEY!! Come back here! Guys! Not funny!”
 
Naruto waved to Sasuke and said, “Ja ne Sasuke-teme!” Sakura giggled while Kakashi snickered.
 
Sasuke cursed mentally, `why didn't I learn the rope escape jutsu!?'
 
`Foolishsimians! My container will not be weak! I swear on my throne as the queen of the demons!'“GYAHAHA! Poor human!”
 
The three of them faded into the distance leaving a tied up Sasuke to fume!
 
“DON'T LEAVE ME!!!”
