Again the three genins where silent. "Of the many names, the names of my Sensei, and friends are carved here." After a beat of silence, Kakashi turns around, "I've decided. I will give you all one more chance. You two can eat lunch, but don't feed any to Naruto. He is the biggest loser of you three so he will not have any. Taking the bells this time will be harder now that you know the reason for the test."

Kakashi walked off before Shunshining into a nearby tree. The two genins began eating lunch when they heard Naruto's stomach growl. "Sorry! I haven't eaten for a while." Laughing Naruto blushed and looked away.

"Here," Sasuke held out his bento box to Naruto. Naruto looked at Sasuke shocked, "I can't have a member of the team be weak because they didn't eat. We are going to work together to get the bells from Sensei."

Sakura holds out her bento as well, "Sasuke is right."

"S- Sakura-chan!" Naruto begins tearing up, "but, I can't eat. My arms are tied." Naruto blushes looking at the ground.

"Fine, just this once." Sakura sighs and picks up some rice, "but we will never speak of this!"

After Naruto took his first bite, a giant cloud of dust appears as a figure begins to yell, "YOU THREE!"

"But sensei! You said we are a team!" Naruto yells.

"Yeah sensei, we were just helping a team member!" Sakura pitched in.

"This is how we work together. "Sasuke pulled out a kunai and pointed it at Kakashi.

"You three, Pass." Kakashi stands up straight, crossing his arms.

"What?" Naruto looks at his sensei with a face full of confusion.

"In this world of ninja, someone who breaks the rules is branded as trash," Kakashi crosses his arms and looks at the three genins, "but those who leave behind their friends are worse." The children all look at their sensei with smiles. "You are now done with the exercise, Team 7 starts their first mission tomorrow." Kakashi Smiles and puts up his thumb, signing a good job.

"Yes sir!" Sakura Yells putting a fist up in the air.

"We did it!" Naruto starts squirming around in excitement, "we're ninja!"

"Well, let's go everyone." Kakashi begins to walk back towards town, "I'll treat you to some Barbecue."

"Wait!" Naruto calls out, "don't leave me here!" the rest of team 7 kept on walking, laughing a little as they played this prank.

"Damn, I knew this would happen." Naruto pouted. "Guys come back, you forgot about me!" After a few moments, he heard some people walking. "Hey, I'm over here!" Seeing who turned the corner, his eyes widen.

"Well, well, well, it's our favorite toy!" Yuuto turns walking towards Naruto. "It looks like someone gift-wrapped him for us!"

"Maybe we can add some more art to him since he's here!" Rito says, looking at Naruto with an evil glint in his eyes.

Nozomu steps forward, pulling a kunai out cutting Naruto free. Rito then also steps forward helping pin Naruto as they unzip his jacket and cut his shirt off. "Looks like the demon kept our last pieces of art!" comments Nozomu excitedly.

"Then how about we play a game?" Yuuto says as he picks up Naruto. Walking back to the post he ties the boy to the post with his torso on full display. Stepping back he pulls out a few shiruken, aiming he throws one hitting Naruto just above his bellybutton. "Yes! Two points for Yuuto!"

Next came Rito, throwing his star, he hit just below Naruto's right eye, "Three for me." Giving a high five to Yuuto as he moves so Nozomu could throw.

As Nozomu's shiruken flew, it was struck out of mid-air by a Kunai. "What? Who did that?" Nozomu, turned around to see Kakashi and two genins.

"Who the fuck are you?" Yuuto asks, pulling out a kunai.

Sasuke pulled a kunai of his own, charging the three men. He grabbed Yuuto by the hair and flung his head into Nozomu's. Then throwing his kunai at Rito's sandal, pinning his foot to the ground. Kakashi stepped to Rito then, kicking him in the stomach making him fall over in pain. after that he grabbed Yuuto and Nozomu tying them together on another pole; meanwhile, Sakura cut Naruto free asking if he was okay.

"Thanks, Sakura-Chan." Naruto stood up pulling out the shiruken. Turning to the three men, Naruto says, "These are my teammates. We are team 7."

Kakashi looks at his genin who nods in agreement. "Looks like the exercise worked." he thought, proudly observing as Sakura kicked Rito in the head. "Well done Sasuke, Sakura." He then turned towards Naruto, "sorry we left you, we where pranking you, but these three came along and, well, you know." Kakashi looked away from his Sensei's son, disappointed that he let Naruto get hurt.

"It's alright Sensei, they did the same thing last night," the blonde turned to Kakashi with a goofy smile.

Kakashi said nothing and just turned his head away. "Naruto, what is that?" Sakura asked, pointing at his scars all over his torso.

"Oh," Naruto flushed remembering that he was shirtless, "it's um."

"They did that?" Sasuke asked pointing at the three men over his shoulder.

Nodding, Naruto looked away and looked for his Jacket. "But it's fine, really. I heal fast."

Sasuke turned and walked to the three men. "You know who I am?" Sasuke asked, glaring at the three. After receiving nods, he smirked, "then you would be better off if I never see you again. If I do, I'll kill you." Another nod comes from the three, knowing that the Uchiha was serious.

Naruto found his Jacket with his tattered shirt, picking up his shirt sighing, he slipped on his jacket and turned to the others. Sakura gasped and pointed to his face where he was hit with the shiruken, "Naruto, where did your injury go?" She looked at his face confused.

"As I said, I heal fast!" he smiles at Sakura before turning to Kakashi, "Sensei, its time for Barbecue!" smiling he starts walking back to town.

"the other three stared after Naruto processing what had just happened. "Okay Naruto-Kun," Kakashi sighed pulling out his book and striding after Naruto. Sasuke followed with his scowl back on his face. Sakura stood for a moment, wondering if she was the weird one, before giving up and running after Sasuke. Later, Kakashi reported to the Hokage that his team had passed and arranged for the team photo to be taken at training ground 7 later that day.
