Shikamaru stood up to go and speak to Chouji for a little bit and Madara whined slightly at her loss of heat.ย
"I'll be back," he waved his hand dismissively, "You spoiled brat."ย
"I'm a princess of course I'm spoiled," She shot back stretching out like a cat, her back and joints popping in the process.ย
Shikamaru rolled his eyes and began to leave but Madara was in a mischievous mood that morning, and she nimbly launches herself over the desk and onto his back. The Nara stumbled and cursed, his arms locking beneath her knees.ย
"Why are you so heavy?"
"Are you calling me fat, Shikamaru?" She asked threateningly a dark aura escaping her. Shikamaru sweat-dropped.ย
"Tch, troublesome woman," he mumbled under his breath as he walked down the aisle, "You're just much heavier than usual."ย
"I'm wearing training weights," she answered as she tucked her head into his neck, then she snapped her head up, "The fact that you didn't fall over means you've been training."
Shikamaru said nothing as he maneuvered them down the aisle.ย
Madara let loose a sound of outrage, "Without me? I thought we were partners Nara," she shook her head and clicked her teeth.
"I'll train with you next time," he promised.
Madara huffed, "You always say that, but we end up napping instead."
"Are you complaining?" Shikamaru pauses to look at her with intense dark brown eyes and Madara forced herself not to squirm, "because last I checked you enjoyed our naps."
"I'm not complaining, you give very nice cuddles," the girl admitted carelessly.
"Keep it down would you. You're ruining my reputation," Shikamaru grumbled with a blush. Madara didn't understand the embarrassment.
"You should be proud of your cuddles, imagine all the girls," Madara drawled.
"Women are troublesome," Shikamaru groaned.
"Even me?" Madara pouted slightly.
Shikamaru looked up at her with narrowed brown eyes pausing by where Sasuke was seated, "Most of all you."
"You're so mean to me sometimes, Shika-chan," Madara hopped off his back, "This why I like Chouji more."
Shikamaru scoffed, "That's not true," He crossed his arms in denial to herย claim.
"Someone sounds Jealous."
Shikamaru huffed and turned her head away, "Jealous is not a word in my vocabulary."
Madara places her hands on her hips. "You're a genius with eidetic memory, every thing you read or hear becomes a part of your vocabulary," she leaned forward slightly bending at her hips, pointing at him.
Shikamaru tried not to smile at how she subconsciously mimicked his mother. With how many times that woman scolded his father it didn't surprise him.
"You're one to talk," Shikamaru started only to get cut offย by a obnoxious bright yellow and orange ball.
"Hey Ma-Chan!"ย
Shikamaru blinked and Madara scowled stick mark appearing on her forehead, "How many times do I have to tell you not to call me Ma-Chan, Baka?"
"Ma-Chan? You let him call you Ma-Chan?" Shikamaru asked and the girl scowled shaking her head in annoyance.ย
"Hn."
Shikamaru decided to drop the subject narrowing his eyes rudely at the blonde, "What are doing here anyway, Naruto?" He ignored Madara's scolding look.
"This isn't for drop outs, you can't be here unless you graduate."
Naruto didn't seem to be offended in the slightest only grinning widely in response, "Oh yeah?" He said childishly pointing at his forehead protector, "Do you see this? Do you see this? Open your eyes Shikamaru. It's a regulation headband," he hosted with a closed eyes grin, "Ma-Chan helped me pass!"ย
"Stop calling me that!"ย
He ignored the girl, "We're training together. How do you like that?"ย
"Hm," the Nara grunted crossing his arms.ย
Madara rolled her eyes as the blonde continued to speak meeting her brother's eyes she crossed her own and saw his lips quirk up lightly in amusement.ย
"Let me put it this way, I look great in this headgear, like it was made for me," the blonde continued to ramble and Madara rolled her eyes once again instead looking across the class at left corner of the room and sticking her tongue out childishly.ย
Her eyes then landed on the Huyuga who sat a little ways away. Their eyes met and the Uchiha gave her finger wave in greeting, Hinata letting a shy smile in return.ย
They weren't friends in any means, but there was a connection there between the two, one of deeper understanding that neither will be able to forget or loose that connection.ย
Funny how one night could tie two lives together for eternity.ย
Madara's attention was drawn away as the sound of a stampede echoed down the hall from outside.ย
The door burst open and the two banshees of this came barreling in. Madara couldn't help but comment, "Oh look, the cows came home."
Shikamaru let loose a snort as as the two girl fought to get through the door.ย ย
"I'm first!" Ino and Sakura yelled.ย
"Moo!" Madara cooed in their direction.ย
Shikamaru shook his head, "You're gonna get yourself in trouble."ย
"Is that a promise?" She asked but Shikamaru simply shoved her away and made his way down towards Choji.ย
"Abuse I say!" She shrieked after him ignoring Sasuke's pleading eyes as she followed after her best friend.ย
The sound of arguing fangirls was deafening to Madara's ears as she took a chip from from Choji's offered hand.ย
"Who do you think is going to be put together in squads?" Chouji asked over the screeching fan girls munching contentedly on his favourite barbecue chips.ย
"Well you and Shikamaru are obviously be on a squad together, with the blonde cow," Madara said with a light shrug and the two boys let loose groans.ย
"Why not you?" Chouji asked shoving another chip into his mouth unhappily.ย
"The is always going to be a generation of Ino-Shika-Cho, it's inevitable,"ย
"Well then who do you think you'll be with?" Shikamaru asked and Madara's lips curved downwards in thought as she looked around the room lingering on how her brother and Naruto sat glaring at one another, uncomfortably close.ย
"Since there is an uneven amount of kids this year, I will be the last to be placed," she stared at her brother and Naruto as they continued to glare at one another.ย
"Since I'm one of that last Uchiha, they'll put me on a squad with a very skilled shinobi, maybe a former ANBU," she deduced, "And since they would want to give the last of the Uchiha the best chance at surviving, my brother and I would be most likely grouped together because we work well together."ย
But then, if there is going to be a very skilled shinobi as my squad head. That means there's also a good chance that they'd want Naruto under them as well, she thought. As a kyuubi they need him under watch at all times.ย
After a long second of thought she smack her fist into her open palm, "Mn, Naruto and Sasuke."ย
Just as she said their names a boy who sat bellow Naruto leaned back and knocked into him and everyone watched in shock as Naruto fell forward and locked lips with her brother.
The room went dead silent.ย
Her whole body trembled as the urge to cackle swept through her.ย
Her brother and Naruto sat still for a moment before they jumped away fromย each other and coughed and gaged.ย
"Lol!" Madara choked out blankly as her body trembled, Shikamaru And Chouji sweat dropped at her reaction.ย
"I-I didn't know you swung that way Aniki," she called out.ย
The fan girls screamed and shrieked at the implication of their dearest Sasuke not being straight.ย
He looked at his sister, "I-I do not!"ย
"don't worry I'll love you either way."ย
"Shut up!"ย ย
Naruto froze as a dark feeling swept through the class, "I'm in danger."ย
"You're finished Naruto!"
ย
~~~~~~ย
ย
Madara found herself seated between Ino and Shikamaru, much to her distaste. The blonde kept asking her weird questions about her brother.ย
"What kind of shampoo does Sasuke-kun use?"ย
โ What drawer does he keep his underwear in?โ ย
Madara May know the answers to both of those questions but that didn't mean she would disrespect her brother's privacy like that. Despite how much he pisses her off.ย
"As of today, you are all ninjas," Iruka sensei stared looking at all his students with pride, "To get here, you faced difficult trails and hardships. But that's nothing. What comes next will be far more difficult, Now you're only genin, first level ninjas. All the genin will be grouped into three man squads, four for one, due to the uneven amount of students this year."ย
Madara hummed in acknowledgement when his gaze looked at her pointedly. "Each squad will be led by an elite ninja.ย
Ink let loose a sound of hope before looking down at Sakura and smirked, "Well someone's got to be in Sasuke's group, I wonder who."ย
Sakura gave her a side eye, "I don't know."ย
"Ah," Sasuke ground with his fingers clasped in front of him.ย
Madara gave her brother an odd look, as if he didn't know that.ย
"We want each squad to have a balance of strengths and abilities, so that's how we set them up."ย
"I will now announce the squads."ย
After going through six squads, Madara began to grow disinterested until the first name of Squad ย seven was called.ย
"Squad seven: Uzumaki Naruto," said boy perked up, "Haruno Sakura."ย
A sound of disbelief escaped the blonde girl and Ino grinned triumphantly as Naruto stood as cheered, "Yeah!"ย
"I'm doomed!" Sakura groaned as she bowed her head.ย
"And Uchiha Sasuke!"ย
Naruto and Sakura reversed roles.ย
Madara couldn't help but stare and Sakura in pity, They're setting her up to fail, she thought. Two powerhouses and a simple civilian girl, she won't make it out alive.ย
"Next, squad eight, Hyuga Hinata, Inuzuka Kiba, Shino Aburame."ย
Sakura turned and grinned triumphantly at Ino who looked like she was about to explode in anger, the younger Uchiha simply scooted away from her and into Shikamaru.ย
"Ah! How did you get in his group?!" A tick mark appeared on Ino's forehead as she fumed in place."ย
Shikamaru tilted his head, "I don't get it," he started throwing an arm over Madara's shoulder using his other to lazily rest his chin.ย ย
"What do you see in a guy like that? He's not so special," he grumbled and Madara has to agree. Sasuke and her were very boring people.ย
"You are so beyond clueless Shikamaru," she said leaning forward to look at him, "Don't you get it?"ย
Shikamaru fixed the blonde with a look of contempt, "No I don't get it, because I'm not a girl."ย
Madara raised her hand as if she was gonna answer a question, "I'm a girl and I don't get it."ย
"Ugh, you're so full of yourself Shikamaru," she set her blue eyed gaze on Madara, "And he's your twin, of course you wouldn't get."ย
Madara opened her mouth to correct her but the girl continued speaking, "Jealousy's a terrible thing. I'd hate to be on you squad."ย
"Now Squad ten," Iruka started, " Yamanaka Ino, Nara Shikamaru."ย
Ino let loose a sound of disgust and Shikamaru let out a mocking laugh, "Did you say something about hating to be on my squad?"ย
"And Akimichi Chouji."ย ย
Ino let out a screech and Madara winced picking at her ear.ย
God, you're so loud.ย
"And since there are an uneven number of students this year, "Uchiha Madara will be placed in Squad seven."
ย
Naruto cheered as he looked back at the girl who didn't seem surprised in the slightest, Sasuke barely let out a sigh of relief and Sakura stared at the girl wearily, Madara winked at her sending a fingered wave in her direction.ย
While everyone one of her fan boys wept in rage.ย
"That all the squads."ย
Naruto stood up abruptly, "Iruka sensei," he pointed at Sasuke who looked unbothered. "Why does a great ninja like me have to be in the same squad as with a slug like Sasuke."ย
"Hm," Iruka sighed before explaining, "Sasuke had the second highest scores of all the graduating students."ย
The room went silent as they processed the information, Ino was the first to crack."ย
"SECOND!" She shrieked.ย
"How is that possible?!"ย
"My Sasuke second? Since when?!" Sakura shrieked and Madara cleared her throat raising hand as Shikamaru grinned smugly for his friend.ย
"Since my fine ass came out my mother's womb thank you very much," she said brightly and all his fan girls glared at her.ย
Sasuke let out a snort, "Not true."ย
"Say that to my test scores, Aniki."ย
He simply rolled his eyes.ย
Iruka chuckled before continuing, "Naruto, you had the worst test scores, to create a balanced grip we put the best students with the worst students."ย
"Just make sure you don't get in my way, Teme," Sasuke drawled arrogantly.ย
"What did you say?"ย
"Hard of hearing?" All his fangirls laughed.
ย "Knock it off, Naruto. Sit down."ย
Iruka got their attention, "After lunch, you'll meet your new jounin teachers. Until then, class dismissed."
ย

ย
Madara sat quitely between Chouji and Shikamaru eating her rice balls contently. Ino had joined them of course since thee three were in a group together.ย
"You're gonna have to follow my lead. That's the only way it will work," Ino stated and Madara snorted lightly through straight lips.ย
Shikamaru rolled his eyes waving his hand dismissively, "Yeah, Yeah," but he turned his head to glare at her murderously.ย
"Why don't you lead us to some barbecue, Ino?" Chouji but in with an adorable smile on his chubby face.ย
"Hopeless!" The girl cried smack her her forehead.ย
A movement caught Madara's gaze, Shikamaru following not far behind. "Huh?"ย
Her brother was in the building across from them eating lunch alone, and Naruto was sneaking towards him along the roof.ย
"What is that idiot doing?"ย
"Who?" Ino asked looking at the Uchiha girl.ย
"Naruto," Shikamaru answered as they all looked at what the dumbass was trying to do.ย
Naruto lunged at Sasuke sending the two out of view.ย
"What the hell?" Madara stood up and looked closer as a series of bangs and grunts echoed from inside the room as the window fell closed.ย
Ino let out a shocked gasp.ย
"Naruto!"ย
"Pipe down!"ย
Ino clenched her fist, "Naruto!! If you so much as scratch him, you're on my enemy list forever."ย
A loud crash echoed once again and the blonde turned to look at the female Uchiha.ย
"Go help your twin!"
Madara scoffed and crossed his arms, "First off, I'm not his twin. Second off, it's not like Naruto is gonna kill him or anything."ย
Ino scowled before blinking, "What do you mean you two aren't twins?"ย ย
Shikamaru scoffed, "She's younger than Sasuke by a year."ย
"Which means you're younger than all of us!" Ino shrieked and Madara winced picking at her ear.ย
"Yes."ย
"But you're stronger than me!"ย
Madara rolled her eyes,"And?"ย
"How is that fair?" The Yamanaka cried.ย
Madara glared at her, "I may be younger than you, but unlike you I take my training seriously, I don't do it for some emo boy with a ducks ass for hair," Madara jabbed with a deep scowl before looking over when her brother opened the window and crawled out, completely unscathed.ย
Smart.ย
"I knew Naruto couldn't beat him!" Ino cheered and Madara shook her head.ย
"That wasn't my brother," she mumbled hoping up to crouch on the balcony. "Excuse me."ย
She launched herself swiftly off the balcony and onto the other roof. Opening the wind she crawled in, only to shake her head slightly.ย
"You let that, Baka beat you?" She asked her brother who was bound and gagged.ย
"Mhmfmmm!" He glared at her as gelled trying to wiggle out of his binds.ย
She cocked her head, "What was that, Aniki? I didn't quite catch that."ย
He glared her and she held up her hands in surrender, "Okay."ย
Crouching she pulled the gag from his mouth and glowered and forced back a smile, "He used his clone jutsu didn't he?"ย
"He couldn't even do a simple shadow clone jutsu in class," Her brother raged as she began to untie the ropes. "He combined a replacement jutsu with a shadow clone jutsu, how the hell did he learn that?" He snapped as he sat up right.ย
Madara grimaced, "Opps."ย
He glowered at her, "Where did he go?"ย
"What, no thank you?" Madara frowned crossing her arms.ย
"Where did he go?"ย
"Ungrateful bastard," Madara grumbled crossing her arms and pointing to the right, pointing him in the wrong direction.ย
Her brother shot off immediately.ย
Asshole, I'm gonna bleach all your cloths then wash them with a red sock.
