"So, you want to join the Hidden Leaf Villages' Ninja, do you?" Tsunade said.

"....Yes, Misstress Hokage." A young man replied.
"Well first, you need to tell me what village you were from."
".......The Hidden Sound Village"

Tsunade replied with a gasp. "The Hidden Sound Village?!" She shouted.

"Yes." The young man replied. "I was amonst their shinobi, but, I found out what the sick creep, Orochimaru, was really up to.....I even know about Sasuke Uchiha."

"Hmm....Interesting. What do you know about Orochimaru?" Tsunade quisically said.

"Well, all I know is that Orochimaru can go into other people's bodies so he can live forever, he can give the curse mark to people, and he's going to use Sasuke Uchiha's body as his next vessel. I also know about the attack on the Leaf. I didn't have a hand in it, but I know that Orochimaru had planned it all, and that he killed the Third Hokage." The young man said.

"You're very well informed....maybe too well informed...." Tsunade said suspiciously.
"I heard it from everyone in the Sound Village." The young man replied.
"Why did you come here?" Tsunade said.

The young mand was speechless for a moment.

"Hm? Is something wrong?" Tsunade asked.

"....The reason I came here is becvause I was going to be experimented on by Orochimaru....he even gave me the Cursed Mark of Heaven." The young man replied.

Shizune leaned over to Tsunade's ear and whispered "How do we know he's not lying? I mean, he cound have made that up..."

"Maybe." Tsunade whispered "But just in case....."

The young man gave a puzzled look at Tsunade and Shizune. "Misstress Hokage?" He said.

"Hm?" Tsunade turned and looked at him. "To validate this, we need to see that Cursed Mark." The young man nodded and tore off the left sleeve of his blue shirt, revealing the Cursed Mark of Heaven.

"Ha! That could have been easily drawn on!" Shizune shouted.
"It's real!" The young man shouted.
"Hey! Calm down! Both of you!!" Tsunade yelled out.

"Yes, Lady Tsunade." Shizune grimmaced.
"I'm sorry, Misstress Hokage" The young man said.
"It's okay" Tsunade said. "Now, prove to us that that Cursed Mark is real."
The young man nodded and rubbed on the Cursed Mark.....it didn't fade away and activated, causing the young man to groan in pain.

"So it is real." Tsunade said.
The young man had continued to groan in pain.
"We have to do something!" Shizune shouted.
"Relax, Shizune." Tsunade said, pointing to the young man. "Look."
Shizune looked at the young manand saw the Cursed Mark receding.
"What a relif" Shizune sighed. The young man had panted and had stood up straight.
"I'm sorry for yelling at you." Shizune said to the young man.
"It's ok," The young man panted.
"I don't even know your name, so I can't appologize properly...." Shizune grimmaced.
"Yes, we need to know your name." Tsunade said.
"My name is.....Kusaki Endo." He said.
"Very well then. Kusaki, dispose of you old headband." Tsunade said. "Since you have experience, we will start you off as a Genin."
"...I have no objections. Even though I was a Chunin" Kusaki said. He pulled out his Sound Ninja headband and looked at it for a few minutes. "I'm ready." He said.
Tsunade pulled out a black clothed Leaf Headband. Kusaki walked over and humbly took the headband.
"You are now a shinobi of the Leaf Village" Tsunade said. "You alliegenge lies with the Leaf! Do you understand?"
"Yes, Misstress Hokage" Kusaki said in a respectful voice. He quickly wrapped it around is left arm, over his Cursed Mark.
"Your training will begin today! Meet me in the training field, you will have a partner." Tsunade said.
"Yes, ma'am." Kusaki said.
"Now, get some ninja tools and go to the training field" Tsunade ordered.
"Yes ma'am." Kusaki said. He then left.
"Lady Tsunade," Shizune said. "Are you sure it's okay to let someone like him into our village?"
"It'll be okay. He'll help the Leaf in many ways." Tsunade said.

A half hour later....

"So I see you came." Tsunade said.
"Yes." Kusaki said. "Um, excuse me for asking, but, where is your coat, ma'am?"
"This is how I always dress when i'm training with my disciple." Tsunade said.
"Disciple?" Kusaki questioned.
"Yes," a young woman said. "I'm her disciple. My name is Sakura Haruno."
"It's nice to meet you." Kusaki said. "My name is Kusaki." He quickly examined Sakura. "You're very pretty, Sakura." Kusaki said politely.
"Awww." Sakura said blushing. "Thank you, Kusaki. You are too."
"Thank you.
"You're welcome. In fact, you remind me of......."
"Hm?"
"Nevermind."
"Okay."
"Hey you two!" Tsunade shouted. "Pay attention!"
"Yes, ma'am" they both said.
"Today, we weill be testing your ability with physical strength." Tsunade said.
"Sakura, you first."
"Yes, ma'am." Sakura said. Sakura went to the middle of the training field and punched the ground, causing a giant crater to form.
"Wow" Kusaki thought to himself.
"Very good Sakura." Tsunade praised.
"Thank you, ma'am." Sakura bowed.
"Kusaki, you're up next." Tsunade said.
"Yes, ma'am. But I have a question." Kusaki said.
"What is it?"
"What rank is Sakura?"
"Sakura is now a Chunin."
"I see."
"Why do you ask?"
"I wanted to know how strong the person im training with is."
"Ok. Now then."
"Right." Kusaki had gone to the small pond near the training field. Using one finger, he touched the surface of the lake, which caused the water to shoot up 700 feet in the air with great pressure.
"Impressive, Kusaki" Tsunade said.
"Thank you ma'am" Kusaki bowed.
"Alright, let the real training begin!" Tsunade said.

After 4 hourse of training, both Sakura and Kusaki were wiped out.
"Alright, that ends today's session! Good work you two" Tsunade said.
"Thank you, ma'am" they both said tiredly.
"Both of you can go home now." Tsunade said. "Sakura."
"Yes, ma'am?" Sakura said.
"Make sure to give Kusaki the initiation process i told you about.....and don't be afraid to invite the other girls as well." Tsunade said.
Sakura smiled at that remark. "Yes, ma'am!"
"Initiation process?" Kusaki said.
"Oh, it's nothing!" Sakura smiled innocently. "So where do you live, Kusaki"
Kusaki was silent.
"Huh?"
"Kusaki doesn't have a home" Tsunade said. He just came from the hidden Sound Village.
"I see." Sakura said. "Kusaki?"
"Yes?" Kusaki said.
"Would you like to spen some time with me?"
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah. I'll help you find a place to live too"
Kusaki smiled. "Thank you."
"It's no problem." Sakura smiled.
"Sleep well you two" Tsunade said.
"Good night ma'am" They both bowed.
Sakura walked away from the training field and Kusaki followed.
They had soon arrived at Sakura's house.

After settling in Sakura's room, Kusaki had went on the roof to think for a while.
"Kusaki?" Sakura said.
"I'm coming!" Kusaki said. He quickly went back in the house and into Sakura's room.
"What is it Sakura?"
"I was thinking.........do you want to go out tonight?" Sakura said.
Kusaki blushed. "Um, shure. Where to?"
"Well..." Sakura said. "We can stay here in my room, go to Ichiraku Ramen Shop, or to the Hidden Leaf Waterfall."

Kusaki thought for a moment.........
