Suna filler teams

Do you remember the filler arc about the joined and co-sponsored second chuunin exams between Konoha and Suna? Many new teams appeared there. Konohans, we already knew about them, but Sunans were a novelty.

Thing is, why none of them had a jounin sensei? At least not that we saw, which bothered me a bit, hence I took that task upon myself. But before that, let's mention this first because it's related:

This group escorted Temari and Kankuro near the beginning of Shippuden, during the kazekage rescue mission. During a short break for resting, Ebizou told them the story of sandaime's disappearance (ep21).

So, since they were chosen for such an important mission, that must mean they're worth their name, right?... Even if two of them don't actually have one. So I called them Tojuro and Amagi like the ones in the Gaara's novel (though they are NOT those characters, ok?).

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Now that this little bit of info is explained, let's go back to the point!

First filler team, with Tojuro-sensei:

Second filler team, with Maki-sensei:

Yes, I know that Matsuri is technically Gaara's student, but she's in a genin team now! That means she has teammates and obviously a standard sensei, which I doubt is the kazekage himself.

Third filler team, with Amagi-sensei:

Fourth filler team, with Kabuki-sensei:

The name Kabuki obviously comes from one of the famous artistic style of traditional Japanese theatre (the other being Noh, which uses actual masks instead of face paint).

Now, when I ran the names of Goji and Datsuji through the translator, they gave me a meaning of "typo" and "missing", hence I named the third member of the team Tsumiji, which is more or less a "penalty" for incorrect writing.

*(Thanks to @cherrybombshh for reminding me that a reanimated Suna brute existed during the 4º war, ep307. I only remembered poor Daimaru and Pakura...^_^!)

Fifth filler team, with Azusa-sensei:

This kunoichi only exists for half a second, right before Gaara gives his grand speech in the 4th war. Only one panel and that's all -_-! The only remarkable feature of her very simple design is the colour of her lips, hence I called her Azusa (杏沙), with the kanji for "apricot" and "sand". Because apparently there's a species that can survive in the desert? Oh, and she also was Yashamaru's girlfriend in their youth.

The other members are named after their weapon of choice: Tetsubou (鉄棒 iron bar), Yumiya (弓矢 bow and arrow) and Udeki (腕機 arm machine).

And now, last but not least...

This sixth team is not from the chuunin exams filler, they're just a group of abandoned single characters. In fact, Tessa didn't even make it into the anime. But I really wanted Yuura to have a team and also to rescue these poor unimportant youngsters, so... let's say Yuura survived his brainwashing alive and repented from his actions. Everyone deserves a second chance! XD

*(Coloured version of Tessa is from RockRaven-LG).

Well, that was all. Though if you're interested, you can also check out my Konoha extra teams and my Konoha fanon team :-)

** Kill Your Heroes by TheLightAtLastAndAlways

Word Count:  268,501 (68/?)

Summary:  It's time to stop waiting for other people to save you. A story about fear, resilience, and Sakura.

Comments:  Slow Burn BAMF!Sakura. Also, Kakashi working his way up to being a good teacher and good mentor to Sakura. Genjutsu-type!Sakura.

** Bleed Out by HazelBeka

Word Count:  103,754 (16/16)

Summary:  After Iruka’s confrontation with Kakashi before the chuunin exams, he’s targeted by a serial killer who seems to be picking off disrespectful chuunin. Iruka survives, but it’s only a matter of time before the killer returns to finish the job. Finding his name on the suspects’ list, Kakashi bullies his way onto Tenzou’s investigation in an attempt to clear his name and protect Iruka from the real threat.

Comments:  Murder Mystery, ANBU, Seals Master!Iruka, basically all the best tropes all in one fic. This was the first Naruto fic I ever read, so I’m very attached and compare all KakaIru fics to this one.

** The Bingo Book by flailinginlove

Word Count:  64,500 (10/10)

Summary:  Kakashi avoided relationships. He didn't want to put others in danger. So he couldn't understand why there was a face staring back at him, as a sub-entry to his own, in this Bingo Book. Umino Iruka (lover) the caption read. It didn't matter that it wasn't true. The Book was fact, and to Kakashi's enemies, Iruka had just become a weakness they could exploit.

Comments:  Sensor-type!Iruka, ANBU, awkward KakaIru, what else could you possibly want in a fic? I love it when Iruka surprises people with how good of a ninja he is, even though he's "just a chuunin teacher". One of my favorite tropes, along with his chakra-location (like echolocation) from that one episode. Also, flailinginlove is an amazing author and you should go check out more of their stories.

How to File Form 39-B by thehoyden

Word Count: 10,426 (1/1)

Summary: The first time Iruka met Hatake Kakashi, he was still on some pretty god painkillers.

Comments: Kakashi/Iruka. This one is cute, very light-hearted read with a pinch of angst and a heaping of Iruka parenting Naruto.

The Bijozakura Seal by megyal

Word Count: 38,055 (13/13)

Summary: Kakashi and Iruka are bonded together, entirely against their wishes. While Iruka begins to deal with it, Kakashi still has… doubts.

Comments: Mission!fic, the two start off not exactly friends, and this fic definitely leans into the angsty and kinda uncomfortable, not-as-often-considered side of having a psychic bond with someone you don't know that well or trust.

Part of the Pack by SparrowStrike

Word Count: 125,303 (37/37)

Summary: Legend has it the Hatake Clan is an off shoot of the Inuzuka Clan. It's where they get their sharp teeth, affinity for ninken, and tendency to casually adopt every other person they meet.

When Kakashi realizes Naruto's assigned caretakers aren't even sort of doing their job, the young anbu decides to do a bit of long term babysitting (and possibly commit treason). What follows is the story of Uzumaki-Hatake Naruto and his unconventional family.

This is primarily a slice of life piece and heavy on both fluff and angst. It covers a lot of the canon events and has cannon typical violence and darker themes. It can be read as a stand alone, but is the first work of 3 planned in this AU.

Comments:  Dad!Kakashi raising Naruto, lots of politics, hella canon divergence. Part 1 of 3 in The Pack series.

Roots and Wings by ideaoforder

Word Count:  84,985 (12/12)

Summary:  When Naruto is kidnapped from his orphanage at age three, Kakashi is so done with this shit. He gets Naruto back, tells the Hokage where to go (politely, because he isn't suicidal), and raises the boy himself. Or, you know, tries and is proud when there aren't too many explosions.

Then everybody starts to copy him and it's a whole thing.

Comments:  Found family plus Fix-It fic galore! Focus on Kakashi being a good dad to Naruto, but does have some pairings aren’t that central to the plot: Kakashi/Iruka, Naruto/Shikamaru. Bonus Iruka being a Fuuinjutsu BAMF.

** by my blood by justdoityoufucker

Word Count:  30,892 (7/7))

Summary:  Kakashi finds love and family, all in one near-successful murder.

Comments:  KakaIru. Found family trope, Everyone Lives / Nobody Dies, Jiraiya is a Hatake, Iruka Whump. This is 100% one of my new favorite Naruto fics, its not what you are expecting and I love it.

Thought and Feeling Interwound by tucuxi

Word Count: 36,122 (1/1)

Summary:  Tsunade walked around the desk and sat directly next to Iruka, turning both of their chairs with a casually powerful grasp. In the end they were facing each other, not the desk. He tried and failed to hold her gaze. She reached out and tipped his chin up, forcing him to look at her again. Another hit landed. This time it came from Iruka's left. It felt like it must have shattered bone, ribs grinding against each other in his chest, and Iruka bit his tongue almost until it bled to keep from crying out.

“Tell me, Iruka-sensei,” Tsunade said. “How long, exactly, have you been feeling Hatake Kakashi’s emotions?"

Comments:  Kakashi/Iruka. Accidental Soul Bond fic, also known as Jutsu Gone Wrong. Slowburn fic with lots of denial and angst and misunderstandings.
