Chapter Three
The day has finally arrived! Nagato's meeting with the new Group 7!
It was a particularly beautiful Autumn day as Nagato headed out to meet his new Three-Man-Cell. He knew who it consisted of thanks to his father and a little research on them gave him even better knowledge of their personalities and feats.
The first one he looked up was Daisuke Hibachi, son of the infamous chief, Ryu Hibachi who is known for his spicy dishes. Those cooking details also point to his family's abilities Ninjutsu wise. In fact, on his file (which he sneaked out of Sai's office) it say's that his kin possesses a unique Kekkai Genkai, Scorch Release, otherwise known as, Shakuton.
Another individual known to have had Shakuton was a female Shinobi by the name of Pakura who was resurrected via Edo Tensei during the Fourth Ninja War. Could Daisuke's family be related to her? He'll have to check on that later ...
Next was Sui Fong. He had met her once before at an event that his mother had planned for one of the Daimyo. Upon spilling his drink on her dress by accident, she kicked him in his nuts. Curiously, she spends more of her time at her dad's Dojo then learning medical Ninjutsu from her mom. Also, despite barely attending the Academy, she passes with good marks.
Either way, the crazy strength of Sakura and the insane speed of Rock Lee ought to make her a foe to be reckoned with. One more interesting thing on her file was her expertise in Genjutsu. He guessed this meant that she could use Justu unlike her father.
His train of thought was interrupted by a shuriken whizzing past his face. "Woah!" he exclaimed, falling down.
"You shouldn't leave your back facing an opponent, Nagato!" Konohamaru shouted, standing on a branch.
Nagato sprung up. "I know! You ... just caught me off guard is all!"
Konohamaru chuckled. "Right. Just don't let that be the way you die, though!" he said, jumping of the branch and landing on the ground.
Nagato rubbed his head. "When did you get here?" he asked suspiciously. Immediately, he noticed Konohamaru's wardrobe change. He now wore a Jounin vest and pants as well as his trademark scarf which was dark red.
"Me?" Konohamaru asked. "I've been here waiting."
"Is there anyone else here I could've been asking besides you?" asked Nagato, confused.
A slight noise sounded behind him and he whirled, coming face to face with none other than Sui Fong. Her girlish face was twisted into a snarl and her eyes contained a peculiar spark of rage in them.
Aah. It had been too long.
"Nice to see you again Sui!" he spit through clenched teeth. "You seemed to have changed, I mean at least your hygiene since I couldn't smell you a mile away."
"Cute. Why don't you do all the guys a favor here and cut your hair, so they'll stop getting the wrong signal!" she snapped.
Nagato laughed darkly. "Your telling me? If you didn't have that chest, I would've thought you were just another copy cat of Lee with the bowl haircut and stupid get-up!" He knew this would infuriate her. She loved her father dearly.
"Why you little snot-nosed ---" "HEY!"
Daisuke was sprinting down the trail in the forest towards them, waving his hands wildly. Upon arriving, he put his hands on his knees as if he was out of breath. "Yo! Sensei! Sorry i'm late." he apologized. Looking at his two teammates, he smiled.
"Nice to meet both of you! I'm ---"
"Don't care." Sui Fong stated walking away briskly.
Daisuke stared after her. "What's up with that?" he asked Nagato who merely sat down next to a tree, ignoring him completely. Lost, Daisuke followed suit and leaned against a post, exasperated already. All this time, Konohamaru was observing them quietly, taking in their individual characteristics.
He would not go easy on them during their test. Clearing his throat, he introduced himself; "I'm Konohamaru Sarutobi, twenty-seven years old, and I like Jenga! If any of you have any questions, ask. Them. Now." Daisuke peered at Nagato and Sui Fong before slowly raising his hand.
Konohamaru sighed. "We'll be starting your first test as Genin in a couple of minutes. Your task is to get these three bells away from me. Notice, there's one for each of you. Teamwork will be needed to complete this task as if only one or two of you get their bell, the entire group fails regardless of individual success. Understood?"
Nagato nodded, Daisuke swallowed, and Sui Fong merely, 'Hmphed'.
"Alright then ... we'll begin in five! Oh by the way, you all have till sundown." And with that, he walked into the forest.
Daisuke was the first one up. "Okay! What's our plan?"
Sui Fong smirked. "Stay out of my way." She entered the woods through a different opening. Turning to Nagato, Daisuke plead. "Come on, we've gotta work together!"

Nagato studied him curiously, seemingly noticing him for the first time. He wore a red vest -open- that contained his clan symbol on the back along with a blue shirt and black sweatpants. Nagato couldn't shake the determined look in his eye. In fact, it intrigued him.
Sighing, Nagato stood up and held out his hand. "All right, let's do this." Daisuke smirked and grasped it firmly. "Yeah! Let's do this!"
The ultimate tag-team? Or a reckless pairing! Next the epic battle of Team 7 as well as the results of the test!
