Konoha

An aged man stood in front of a group of shinobi. He wore his white robes and white and red hat.

"I want you to find Naruto-kun and bring him back unharmed." Said the Hokage. "If I find out that even one of my most trusted shinobi attacked the boy..." The Hokage was leaking out immense killer intent. The team of shinobi paled before vanishing. The Hokage rubbed his temples.

"Every year its the same thing around this time."

Forest of Death

A small blonde haired boy ran through the forest in Konoha. He wore a tattered brown cloak, torn pants and worn out shinobi sandals.

"As if this day could get any worse..." Muttered the boy.

Naruto dashed through the forest and gritted his teeth when a katana plunged into his shoulder and lodged him into a tree. Naruto growled at the shinobi.

"We finally caught you demon-brat!" Shouted a Chunin. He grinned evilly as he took out another katana. Soon the whole group of shinobi stabbed Naruto, each of them plunging their swords into Naruto. The boy coughed up a mouthful of blood.

"Why...what did I...do..." The question died on his tongue as he slowly ventured into darkness.

Mind Realm

Naruto awoke in a dank place. He stood up and noted that there was water in the place. It went up to his knee caps.

"Great...I died at the age of five and went to a sewer..." Muttered Naruto. He soon began walking through the sewer like place and stopped when he heard a voice.

"Naruto-kun..." Said a melodic voice. It seemed to be filled with sadness and regret. Naruto ran forward, following the voice. After many twists and turns, Naruto entered a larger room. There was a giant cage with a sheet of paper on it. He noticed that is said seal. He almost jumped back when he spotted glowing red eyes.

"I'm sorry..." Whispered the being behind the bars. "I did not wish for this to happen...Naruto-kun I am truly sorry..."

Naruto stared at the eyes and soon in a flash of light, he saw her. A giant crimson fox with nine long tails. Her eyes showed nothing but remorse and regret.

"Forgive me...Denka..." (Your Highness)

"Denka? What do you mean? Who are you?"

"I am...the Kyuubi no Kitsune...Denka..." Said Kyuubi. Naruto's eyes went wide.

"B-But...the Yondaime Hokage killed you..." Stuttered the boy.

"Naruto-kun, please relax, I am not going to harm you. Your father was not strong enough to defeat me so he called upon Shinigami-sama to seal me inside of you."

"My father? Sealed?" Said Naruto becoming very confused.

"Your father was the same man who sealed me inside of you. As humans call him, the Yondaime Hokage."

"He was my father?" Said Naruto not believing the fox.

"He had the same scent as you. As a demon queen, my nose is pretty advanced. No one told you he was your father Naruto-kun?"

"N-no...Ojii-san never told me...anything about my parents..." Said Naruto as tears fell from his eyes.

"Naruto-kun! Please stop crying...its not your fault..."

"They treated me...so badly..." Muttered Naruto as his voice dropped to a whisper. Kyuubi shuddered as she felt the malice and hatred emanating from the boy.

"No child should have such darkness in their hearts...Naruto-kun please relax." Whispered Kyuubi now becoming nervous. She looked at the walls and how they began to deteriorate and she gulped.

"Naruto-kun! Stop this! You are losing control of yourself!"

Naruto let out a savage roar and black chakra poured from his body.

"How?! How is it possible for such darkness to exist?!"

Naruto vanished from the mental realm. The image burned into the kitsune's head was the glowing eyes of Naruto.

Forest

The shinobi cheered silently but paled when they felt a huge surge of killer intent. The Sandaime Hokage had arrived with a team of Jounin consisting of Hatake Kakashi who was wearing his ANBU garbs, Tenzo (Yamato) Maito Gai, Sarutobi Asuma, Shiranui Genma, Gekkou Hayate, Mitarashi Anko and Uzuki Yuugao. The Sandaime's eyes were blazing with righteous anger. He counted the amount of shinobi present and growled. Ten of his Jounin and twenty Chunin. He spotted Naruto and his eyes went wide. There the boy was, impaled by multiple sharp objects, including katanas, spears, and kunai.

"You...how could you do this to a child?!" Roared the Hokage.

"Sandaime-sama, it had to be done. He had you under his spell. He was waiting to destroy us!" Shouted one of the Jounin. Sarutobi Sasuke turned his glare to the man.

"How dare you...this is treason and against the law of Shodai Hokage...never kill a villager without justifiable cause..."

"B-But Hokage-sama..." Stuttered a blonde kunoichi. Before the elder could administer justice, they were all startled by a surge of chakra. The chakra source was near Jounin level which frightened the shinobi present. Naruto's body grew a black outline and the swords shot out of his body. Black chakra danced around his being and he stared at the shinobi present. His brown cloak turned black and it began to grow and flow ominously in the wind. His wounds healed in a short span of time. Naruto's pupils were gold but his iris were jet black with golden veins in his eyes.

"I can never forgive you...any of you..." Came Naruto's distorted voice. He held his hand out and a black light appeared. The black light took form and the shinobi who feared the boy took a step back. A sword formed. It was around seven feet in length. It had a strange cross guard. It was the skull of some dragon like creature. It had two curled horns going upward on each side of the dragon skull. Two on the top of the head and one on each side of the jaw. The maw of the dragon had the actual blade protruding from it. Bandages emerged from the tip of the hilt and it flowed ominously.

"I will never forgive you!" Shouted Naruto as he vanished. The shinobi got into stance.

"I told you Hokage-sama! The demon is at work!" Shouted a scared Chunin. Kakashi and Gai stood back to back and waited.

"Did you feel that Gai?" Asked Kakashi.

"Yes I did. He is coming...quickly..." Whispered Gai. Both shinobi jumped out of the way and watched as a black blur roared past them. A Chunin took out some kunai but found his head missing. The shinobi present watched in horror as Naruto appeared and vanished, taking shinobi down in the process. Soon it was just the Jounin. He walked forward only to have his black aura become over taken by red chakra.

"No Naruto-kun! Stop this madness! You need to calm down!" Pleaded Kyuubi. Soon an image of Kyuubi appeared above Naruto. She seemed to be struggling with holding back the boy's rage.

"Sandaime-sama! Hurry and stop the flow of chakra coming from the seal!" Shouted the image. The Sandaime stared at the boy struggling to get free. He may have seen a lot of battles in his days but this was one for the books. A boy killing off his soldiers with just pure rage and hatred fueling his power.

"Hurry or his body will overload! If that happens then everything in a forty mile radius while be obliterated by the explosion of chakra!"

That kicked the Sandaime's brain into working. He quickly formed the seals for the Gogyou Fuuin (Five Element Seal) and raced forward. He quickly placed the seal on Naruto's stomach and watched as the chakra flow receded. The boy fell forward into the waiting arms of the Sandaime.

"I am sorry Naruto, I failed to protect you again." Said the old man. "Kakashi, gather up the survivors and take them to Ibiki. Tell him he can use any method he wants."

With that said, Sarutobi vanished with the boy in his arms.

Mind Realm

Naruto awoke in his mind but found himself on a throne. A throne decked in jewels and made of gold. Around him was multiple pillars. Twenty-two to be exact. Each of them had an odd symbol on them and a Roman Numeral as well. He closed his eyes again, his body felt tired.

"All hail the future King...hail King Juubi..." Echoed a voice in his head.

Naruto opened his eyes and closed them again. He was too tired to make sense of this.

Hospital Room

Sarutobi sat next to Naruto and sighed. That creepy sword was resting in a corner of the room. When he left with Naruto, the sword followed. He unsealed the Gogyou Fuuin and sighed.

"I don't know what you did Naruto, but you scared me...and a good amount of shinobi."

Outside the room was Kakashi and Tenzo guarding the door. They were to strike down anyone who came near the door with ill intentions. Naruto stirred in his sleep a bit but stopped. Sarutobi raised an eyebrow and then his mouth went gape. A black bubble of chakra surrounded Naruto. Soon white chakra mixed in and moved hypnotically with the black chakra. Red chakra seeped out the top of the bubble and took a shape of a bubble. The bubble floated to the floor and disappeared. Out came a beautiful young red head girl. She looked to be around 13 or 14. Her red hair looked like silk as it flowed to her thigh. She wore a pair of silk black shorts and a red shirt. She had two fox ears on the top of her head. Her eyes were a beautiful shade of gold. She had whisker marks on her cheeks just like Naruto. She walked over to Naruto and stroked his face lovingly.

"To think, his power would surface so early..." Said the girl.

"Who are you?" Asked the Sandaime. He was ready to fight just in case she was a threat.

"I will not harm Naruto-kun, he is far too important to me." Said the girl. "As for who I am, I am most commonly known to you humans as the Kyuubi no Youko." When those words escaped her lips, Sarutobi nearly had a heart attack.

"K-Kyuubi? How...the seal wasn't suppose to fail...at least not yet."

"I'm not free yet. This isn't my true body or human form. Its a form of regression. I am as about as strong as your weaker shinobi, they're called Genin right?"

"R-Right." Stuttered the old man. "Oh man...this is bad..."

"This body is somewhat like an advanced clone that is alive but if destroyed, my soul will return to the seal. I missed my real body...and my F-cup too..." Said Kyuubi sadly as she squeezed her chest. Sarutobi's eyes went wide and drip of blood fell out of his nose.

"Slowly but surely the seal is absorbing my chakra into Naruto's chakra coils but it will take time. Soon or later I would become free from the seal but Naruto-kun would be much stronger than me."

Kyuubi stroked his cheek some more. She stared at the sword in the corner and sighed.

"It was bound to happen but not so soon."

"What was bound to happen?" Asked Sarutobi.

"Naruto...has the power to become the next Juubi demon." Said Kyuubi flatly.

"Run that by me again?" Asked Sarutobi not truly believing his ears.

"Yes, there has only been three Juubi class demon in the past. Both of them rule over a certain part of Makai, my grandfather being one of them. But both of them have long since died in combat with each other. The original Juubi, the creator of Makai vanished after mating with a woman creating a hanyou."

"So wait, are you saying that Naruto descended from the original Juubi?"

"Its possible. Surely one of his parents had some sort of oddities about them that most humans didn't."

Sarutobi stopped to think and then it hit him. Minato's unnatural amount of stamina and larger chakra pools.

"Naruto has already awakened to his demon powers. The power has become more and more hidden as it went down the family line. Its possible due to me being sealed inside of him, the power has resurfaced."
Kyuubi walked over to the sword in the corner and picked it up.

"Interesting..." Muttered the fox woman.

"Kyuubi, what is with that sword? I don't think its normal."

"This is a manifestation of his power."

"His power?"

"The power to absorb, manipulate, shape and control souls." Said Kyuubi grimly.

"What?"

"I speak the truth, the boy has the power to absorb, control, manipulate and shape souls to his liking. He has the power to rule." Whispered Kyuubi. "Demons, Celestial Beings, even humans can have their souls stolen by him. And when his tails grow in...his power will grow..."

Sarutobi was pale now. Naruto had such power inside of him.

"He needs to be nurtured or a repeat of tonight may happen. He may destroy everyone and not know what he is doing."

"Kyuubi, why are you telling me this?"

"I want to protect him. They're are many forces who wish to obtain him for their own goals. Under certain influences, Naruto can become a tyrant hell bent on taking over, a man who wishes to protect others or a...god of death and destruction..." Kyuubi shuddered at the thought of fighting Naruto when he reaches his prime of power. Naruto stirred in his sleep and opened his eyes.

"Naruto-kun, you're awake." Said Kyuubi relieved.

"I heard everything..." Said the boy coldly. Kyuubi flinched. "I am a demon right?"

"Y-yes you are Naruto-kun."

Naruto remained silent for a time. "Ojii-san, why didn't you tell me the Yondaime was my father?"

Sarutobi's heart seized up again and he almost clutched his chest. He was getting too old for this.

"W-what are you talking about? You are an orphan of war." Lied Sarutobi.

"Do not lie to me...tell me...why?"

Sarutobi sighed and began rubbing his temples.

"Your father made a lot of enemies inside and outside the village due to his success as the Yellow Flash. While the old regime of Iwa may be dying out, some of the older shinobi still harbor hatred for Minato. Kumo didn't exactly like him either but like Iwa, its mostly the older shinobi." Sarutobi took a deep breathe and sighed. "I was supposed to wait till you were an adult or at least strong enough to take on any enemies your father may have that held a grudge against you. But how did you find out?"

"Kyuubi told me." Said Naruto calmly.

Sarutobi glared at the girl.

"How was I suppose to know that was a secret? I thought it was obvious. Blonde hair and blue eyes are very rare nowadays." Said Kyuubi as she poked her fingers together. Sarutobi sighed.

"Kyuubi...in my mind I saw these rocks that pointed up. They had odd symbols on them. What we're they."

Kyuubi closed her eyes for a second and they snapped open.

"Interesting, most demons don't awaken that many abilities when their powers first surface. Those symbols are that of the twenty-two Major Arcana."

"Major Arcana?"

"I will explain later in your life as the power has surfaced but cannot be activated till later."

Naruto closed his eyes halfway. He was still tired and finding out that he was demon now was too much for him. Sarutobi sighed and got up.

"Naruto, its been a long night. Get some rest and we will talk in the morning alright?"

"Yes sir..." Said the boy as he closed his eyes. Sarutobi walked out of the room and turned to the ANBU present.

"There are no windows and no other ways of entering this room. Make sure he doesn't leave. If anything happens to that boy under your watch...may the Shinigami have mercy on you for I will not." Said the Sandaime with killer intent leaking out. Kakashi and Tenzo paled and nodded stiffly. It was after he used Shunshin to go home, they heard something akin to an explosion. Kakashi opened the door and spotted a huge hole in the wall. He saw Naruto standing in front of the hole wearing his hospital garbs.

"Naruto!" Shouted shinobi. Naruto threw his hands out to the side. His sword flew into his right hand and his cloak slithered up to him. It wrapped around his body and he jumped out. Kyuubi smiled sadly at the ANBU before following him. Tenzo ran to the window and his eyes went wide when he didn't spot them.

"We are so going to die for this..." Said Kakashi. Tenzo could only nod.

Forest

Naruto walked through the forest and sighed.

"Naruto-kun, why did you leave?" Asked Kyuubi.

"I wanted to go for a walk in the forest to clear my head."

Kyuubi sighed and followed Naruto obediently. They ventured into a deeper section of the forest and stopped in a clearing to rest. Naruto walked forward only to fall through a trap door. Kyuubi's eyes went wide and she followed Naruto into the hole. The trap door sealed itself after both of the demon's fell through. Naruto landed on his feet and Kyuubi landed next to him.

"Well now that was new..." Muttered the boy as he walked forward.

"Wait, Naruto-kun, it may be dangerous..." Said Kyuubi. She sighed when her warning fell on deaf ears. "Men..."

Naruto walked into a room and raised an eyebrow. It was a giant facility. It seemed to be a giant laboratory combined with a library and a bedroom.

"Where are we?" Asked Naruto. Kyuubi could only shrug her shoulders. Naruto walked into the bedroom and spotted a journal. He picked it up and read the name.

"Orochimaru? This must be his place."

Naruto opened the book and began reading. He learned about how a boy who's dream was to become the strongest shinobi around to something more twisted such as immortality. He learned about the man and his experimentations and his library of scrolls and techniques that he gathered from over the years. Naruto smiled as he left the room. He walked into the library room and spotted a bunch of scrolls. He saw that some were labeled with E-rank and so on. The S-rank techniques were surrounded by a strange purple aura.

"Guess I can't touch those yet." Said Naruto. He spotted Kyuubi walking towards the bedroom and his eyes went half lidded when she began sleeping on the bed. He sweat-dropped.

"Guess the sewer cage was uncomfortable..." He picked up a book labeled Shinobi basics and looked at it. "I will read it tomorrow after meeting Ojii-san. For now, I should look around." Naruto left the library and went into the laboratory room and looked at all the neat things around him. Many tubes filled with various chemicals, poisons, body parts and such littered the room. Jars filled with liquids, and all sorts of oddities around him. Strange shaped weapons were on the walls. Naruto smiled giddily.

"Ojii-san always told me that knowledge was power. But...I'm tired and I need to rest."

Naruto walked toward the bedroom and walked into his bed. He snuggled next Kyuubi and sighed.

Next Morning

Naruto yawned lightly and opened his eyes. He spotted Kyuubi lying next to him with her arms around his neck. He looked at the fox girl and thought she was very cute, despite the destruction she caused. Her shirt was opened slightly as the young boy got a good look at her cleavage.

"I never understood what was so special about those things. I catch men staring at women all the time. I wonder..." Naruto gently squeezed her left breast and Kyuubi moaned in her sleep. She opened one golden eye and stared at Naruto.

"Naruto-kun you pervert..." Said Kyuubi tiredly. Naruto let go off her breast and turned away.

"I was curious...bite me..." Said Naruto. Kyuubi grinned wickedly and nibbled on his neck. Naruto's eyes shot open and in two seconds, he was in the corner of the room with his sword out. Kyuubi giggled evilly at the look of shock on the boy's face.

"I didn't mean for you to actually bite me..." Said Naruto as he rubbed his neck.

"That was a nibble Denka and that is payback for groping me."

"Sorry."

"It's okay, just behave yourself." Said Kyuubi as she buttoned up her silk shirt. Naruto stood up and grabbed his cloak.

"I'm going to find a way out of this place." Said Naruto.

"I took care of that already Naruto-kun. Let's go." Said Kyuubi as she changed her outfit. She now wore a jet black battle kimono. Naruto followed her outside his new home.

Hokage Tower

The walk to the tower was uneventful. Naruto walked passed the secretary and she snarled at the boy.

"Stupid demon...you cant just march into the Hokage's office."

"Actually I can because I made an appointment yesterday...idiot..." Muttered Naruto as walked by. Kyuubi just shook her head. Naruto walked into the room with Kyuubi and spotted Sarutobi reading his Icha Icha Paradise book.

"I would have never guessed..." Naruto suddenly smiled coldly. "HEY!" Roared Naruto scaring the life out of the old man. His cloak flew forward when Sarutobi tossed his book in the air out of shock. The cloak wrapped around the book and it slithered back to Naruto.

"What would your wife think if she caught you reading this book?" Asked Naruto out loud. Sarutobi paled.

"What do you want Naruto?"

"I don't know. I think I'll hold onto this book for a while until I know what I want from you."

"Great, I'm being blackmailed by a five year old boy."

"As you know, I know about my father and the fact that the Kyuubi was sealed inside of me. Is there anything else I should know as to the whereabouts of my mother?"

"Kushina has long since vanished with your two sisters..." Said Sarutobi sadly. Hell, if the boy wanted the info now, he would have to tell him.

"I see...I have two sisters?" Said Naruto surprised.

"You were one of three siblings but your father figured if Kyuubi was sealed inside a girl her fate would be much worse. Not to mention you were first born."

"I see...what of my father's techniques?"

"Too young to even look at them Naruto-kun. Your father wanted you to master all of his personal techniques meaning the highly dangerous and mass destruction ones."

"Very well, I will return another day." Said Naruto as he walked towards the door.

"Wait Naruto! Where did you go yesterday. Kakashi and Tenzo said that you destroyed a wall and escaped into parts unknown."

"I can't tell you."
"What?"
"Sarutobi, what happened when you gave me that new apartment to live in?" Asked Naruto.

"You were attacked...in a span of five hours..." Said Sarutobi in a defeated voice. He handed Naruto a scroll with his allowance in it.

"No offense but your ANBU are noisy...they were not suppose to know where I lived but in less then five hours half of the village knew."

"But Naruto its for your safety."

"I'll be fine. I'll come to visit every now and then. Here." Naruto tossed the book back at Sarutobi. "I got what I wanted out of you..." Naruto walked out with Kyuubi. Kyuubi threw a scroll towards Sarutobi and he watched her vanish with her master. Sarutobi opened the scroll and his eyes went wide.

"I see...very well..."

Abandoned Laboratory

Naruto walked back into his hideout and sat down on his rear with his Shinobi Basics book. He began reading about the basics and he surprised at what he learned. His eye twitched when he felt Kyuubi sleeping on his shoulder. He sighed and continued reading. After two hours he finished the book. He stood up, rousing Kyuubi from her slumber.

"I'm going to look around the place and train a bit." He was young, he could start early, as long as it wasn't life threatening. He walked around the giant facility and spotted a door saying top secret. Now Naruto was a boy, a very young boy, a very young and curious boy. So logic told him to open the door and look inside. The room was empty with sole exception of strange podium with a white sphere on it. Naruto stared at it and remembered where he heard about this.

"So this is what Orochimaru was talking about...the spirit of the wind...Byakko..." Said Naruto amazed.

Orochimaru noted that he found the sealed off Byakko of the Wind and how he tried to fuse it with his body only to fail miserably. He gave up on the damn thing and went on to find other ways to grow stronger. Naruto's eyes glowed golden and he held out his hand.

"Byakko...come to me..." The sphere floated up and flew into his body. Naruto smiled to himself.

"So this is what Kyuubi meant about the ability to control souls..." Naruto felt wind rings form around his fingers. He sighed as he went outside into the forest. He had three scrolls with him.

"Alright, lets start with the basics. Orochimaru said that its best to practice the chakra exercises. He walked up to a tree and picked up a fallen leaf. He balanced it on his forehead and began to lift it with chakra. For two hours, Naruto stood there training and controlling his chakra. His control increased to the point where the boy could perform the three academy jutsu. Naruto unfurled the first scroll.

"Kiwarimi no Jutsu."

It was simple, replace your body with something else. People who were truly advanced can even use Kiwarimi no Jutsu with people. He spotted a boulder and switched with it. Easy, now it s time for Henge no Jutsu. Naruto transformed himself into a replica of his father and sighed. Now it was time for the Bunshin no Jutsu. Naruto tried it and his Bunshin came out deformed. His eye twitched. Time and time again he tried and the technique would continue to fail. With a roar of frustration, he swiped his hand at the deformed clone. He was not expecting a blade of wind to come out and sever it in two. His eyes went wide.

"I must talk to Kyuubi about that...but first I need to see if Orochimaru has anything about Bunshin techniques."

Naruto ventured back into the lab and looked for more techniques. He found something labeled Kage Bunshin no Jutsu. He mastered the hand-seals and took a deep breath.

"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu."

Three exact replicas appeared and he smirked. "Finally..."

"Hey boss." Said one of the clones. Naruto's eyes went wide.

"A talking clone...no wait...these are actual clones, they are solid..." Muttered Naruto. He sat down and read the scroll some more and came across something interesting. "Shadow clones retain information before they were dispelled and it is transferred to the original."

Naruto instructed on of his clones to go into the lab room and dispelled it. His head hurt slightly but he suddenly had images of what he saw. Naruto grinned to himself.

"Well shopping should be less of a pain thanks to Kage Bunshin and Henge." Naruto walked to his room and saw Kyuubi curled up sleeping.

"I wonder if being outside makes her tired?" Wondered Naruto to himself. He looked for another E-rank technique to master. He found a D-rank and shrugged his shoulders. Hell he mastered Kage Bunshin no Jutsu in a short span of time, he can master this. The Shunshin no Jutsu is a high speed movement technique. It allows a person to vanish and reappear in an instant in order to retreat or attack. Naruto sighed as he performed Shunshin. To his amusement, he vanished in a swirl of wind. He reappeared back inside the lab and frowned. He was tired. He created three clones again and had them transform into nameless random shinobi. He instructed each of them to perform a task for him. After sending them off he went to bed.

Mind Realm

Naruto sat on his throne and spotted Kyuubi standing next to him.

"Kyuubi-chan, I absorbed my first soul..." Said Naruto with a small grin on his face. Kyuubi's eyes went wide but then she smiled at him.

"Really? What was it?"

"The wind spirit Byakko." Said Naruto proudly. Kyuubi was floored instantly. She was expecting a rabbit or a fly or something weak. Not a wind spirit, one of the most powerful ones too.

"H-how is that possible?"

"I don't know. I'm guessing Orochimaru's experiments must have dulled his senses and or weakened him. But I know I gained something..." Naruto waved his arm again and blade of wind flew into the sky of his mental realm.

"See?"

"I see. Naruto-kun I must warn you. Try not to absorb too many souls at a time or you may be overwhelmed and become controlled by them." Naruto nodded.

"As you know or may have guessed, your cloak is alive in a sense. Also you created a sword from your soul. I have know idea what it may be able to do but you do as it is your sword. The question is, does it want you to know just yet."

"I understand, I learned four jutsu today and learned an exercise."

"I suppose we can start training your body."

"My body?"

"Well you need to be able to survive in the shinobi realm so I suppose I can watch over your exercise schedule."

"Alright, Kyuubi-chan, I'm tired though."

"Then sleep Denka."

Next Morning

Naruto stood in the middle of the forest and he was sweating. Kyuubi made him run around the entire forest. Then some push ups and sit ups. He was tired. Kyuubi stated that he needs to concentrate on the basics before he could move onto more advance stuff such as Kenjutsu and Fuuinjutsu. Naruto pouted, he wanted to learn Fuuinjutsu. Kyuubi gave him a style of Taijutsu to train with. It was called Ansatsuken. Kyuubi explained to Naruto that Ansatsuken wasn't a style humans could master easily. Only because he was a demon now, he could use it to its fullest extent. The style itself was simple, swift powerful strikes, barely any defense and strikes that aimed for the vital points. What made this style so dangerous was the ability to incorporate the elements into the attacks. Naruto practiced the Rising Dragon attack and sighed.

"Man...I wish I had a yen for every time some called an uppercut technique Rising Dragon." Thought Naruto miserably. Kyuubi giggled at her master and felt like she could teach him something very interesting.

"Naruto-kun, that is enough. I have something for you."

Naruto walked over to Kyuubi.

"Alright Naruto, I noticed that carrying a sword that big around is going to draw a lot of attention later in life so I figure I should teach you about dimension pockets."

"Dimension pockets?"

"Its a very ancient technique but incredibly simple." Kyuubi walked over to Naruto and took cut his arm. She drew a seal on his arm with his blood and watched as it vanished.

"Viola, it is done. Now pick up your sword and drop it in the dimension pocket you now have access to."

Naruto dropped the sword and watched as it vanished.
"How do I get it back?"

"Just summon it with your mind and feel as if you are pulling it out." Naruto nodded and plunged his hand the tree next to him. He noted with amusement that a small black hole formed around his arm and the point were he hit the tree. He pulled his sword out and grinned.

"That can be used to frighten people very well." Said the boy as he dropped his sword into its dimension. He stood up and continued practicing his moves.

Two Hours Later

Naruto almost had the basics for his Rising Dragon but he was still ways off. Now it was time for him to get a feel for his wind abilities. To Kyuubi's amusement, the boy took to wind techniques like they were nothing.

"His natural affinity combined with Byakko's spirit has made Naruto a wind master at an incredibly young age."

She moved to the side to avoid a miniature ball of green wind smashing into her. She gave Naruto a disapproving look and the boy smiled sheepishly. He shot his arms out to the side and watched as two small tornadoes flew out and decimated the trees around him.

"That is enough Naruto. I swear you are a sponge...soaking up whatever I teach you. Now its time for you to rest a bit. Be you human or demon, you're still young and you need to rest." Said Kyuubi. Naruto nodded and went back into his room. Kyuubi followed. He walked into the bathroom and took a shower.

"I wonder why Orochimaru would leave this? Perhaps he had no choice..."

He stiffened when Kyuubi wrapped her arms around his waist and rested her head on his head.

"Denka, you smell..."

"Then leave..."

Kyuubi giggled as she began washing the young demonic prince. Naruto sighed.

Bedroom

Naruto sat in his room as his clones prepared a meal for him and Kyuubi. Ever since he learned Kage Bunshin, his life became much easier. Sure he could only create three clones but hey that was more than enough. He grinned when of his clones came home with his order.

"Yes, my kunai..." Said Naruto with a sadistic smirk on his face. He took out one of his special ordered kunai and whistled. The kunai were much longer than the original ones. Around three inches longer. The next one was hooked and the third one was designed after a screw. He looked at his screw kunai and smirked.

"Combined with my wind techniques, this should be impressive." Said Naruto as he thought of the possibilities. Naruto and Kyuubi ate their meal together and went to bed. Kyuubi snuggled next to Naruto and kissed his forehead. Naruto snuggled into her bosom and she smiled sheepishly.

"I may have to nip this little perversion thing in the bud...but I don't mind. Although its a bit strange to be molested by a five year old."

One Year Later

A shinobi jumped through the forest holding his prey. He grinned to himself. The Kumo-nin moved swiftly through the forest.
"Kidnapping her was too easy. Arrogant Hyuuga pricks."

He never knew what hit him. One screw kunai flew through the air and lodged itself into the base of his spinal cord. His legs suddenly stopped functioning and he let go of the Hyuuga girl. A figure in a black cloak flew forward and caught the girl. The girl opened her eyes and stared at her blonde haired savior.

Naruto cut her bindings and untied her mouth. She instantly latched onto him and began shuddering in fear. The Kumo nin growled at Naruto.

"The kunai I hit you with is laced with a powerful paralysis. In exactly four seconds, your arms will stop functioning for another six hours. More than enough time for the Hyuugas to catch you."

Hinata stared at Naruto and felt her face heat up a bit. Naruto turned to the little girl and raised an eyebrow.

"Name?"

"H-Hyuuga H-Hinata."

"Uzumaki Naruto." Said the boy.

Naruto wrapped his cloak around Hinata and vanished in a swirl of wind.

Hokage Tower

Hinata and Naruto appeared in front of the Hokage and Hyuuga Hiashi. Naruto stared at the stern man who seemed to be relieved and shocked at the fact that his daughter was safe. Naruto stared into the man's white eyes and noted that he must be the fabled Hyuuga Hiashi, Frigid Leader of the Hyuuga Family.

"Naruto? Why do you have Hinata-chan?" Asked Sarutobi.

"I attacked the fool that kidnapped her. He is currently in the forest suffering from paralysis. Even the most powerful of shinobi can be defeated if caught off guard."

"Can you lead me to the man?" Asked Hiashi.

"Hmph...hope you can keep up..." Naruto created a Kage Bunshin and sent it to lead the Hokage and Hiashi back into the forest. He sat next to Hinata and sighed.

"Your father seems like a charming man." Said Naruto dryly. Hinata didn't respond, she merely snuggled next to him. To her, Naruto was a safety blanket.

Two Days Later

The Kumo nin was accused of kidnapping Hyuuga Hinata, violating the peace treaty and was sent back to Kumo. Relations with the country had decreased and now were on watch by the other countries. He went back to his village ashamed and brought great dishonor with him. It was quite amusing as the man had to be shipped home in a wheel chair as the poison settled into his spinal column effectively disabling his limbs. Naruto vanished back into the forest. To Hiashi's horror, Hinata became infatuated with the young demon and he sighed.

"Noo...she is too young to fall in love...my baby..." Thought Hiashi sadly during one of the clan meetings. Hizashi noticed the look on his brother's face and smirked.

"Glad I got a boy then two girls."

Hiashi sighed after the meeting was over and walked away with his brother. The only thing that was good that came from this was Hinata started training more. Of course the basic Jyuuken exercises were mainly on chakra control and early stances. When he questioned why she trained, he was saddened when she said that it was to impress Naruto. Hizashi was on the ground laughing at his shocked brother's face.

"I now know why Hinata was kidnapped so easily..." Came a voice. Hiashi sighed.

"Would you mind gracing us with your presence boy?" Asked Hiashi. Naruto stepped out of the shadows and let a small smile grace his face.

"Good afternoon Hiashi-san, Hizashi-san."

"You said it was easy, explain." Asked Hizashi.

"Simple, your guards are too arrogant. The believe because they have the "All Seeing Eyes" that their security is without flaw. I advice you have patrol units walking around." Said Naruto calmly. His black cloak had a hood now and it shadowed his face.

"So why are you here Naruto, I highly doubt you came to talk about security." Asked Hiashi.

"I did come for that, but I am curious as to how far Hinata has come and how far she can go."

Hinata stiffened, he came to see her.

"Hinata-hime, may you please active your Byakugan."

Hinata nodded and activated her bloodline.

"Now focus on me please."

Hinata looked surprise but complied. She stared at Naruto and noticed something odd about him. His body was surrounded by a green wind, black mist and white rings.

"I-I see wind, black mist and rings?" Asked Hinata out-loud.

"I figured as much..." Said Naruto. The Hyuuga twins were confused.

"She can sense chakra natures." Said Naruto flatly.

"Chakra natures?"

"In addition to being able to see tenketsu with her eyes she can see nature of elemental chakra in our bodies. Very impressive."

Hinata released her bloodline and smiled.

"She will grow very strong soon...I hope to see what you can do in the Academy. Do not disappoint me Hinata-hime..." Naruto vanished in a swirl of wind.

Six Years Later: Shinobi Academy

It was that time of year again. When Shinobi and Kunoichi hopefuls would join the force. Umino Iruka was their teacher and he sighed. He looked over the crowd and sighed again.

"Why did I get the rowdy bunch this year?"

"Well, I have to say its been an interesting year kids. In two days, some of you will join the Shinobi force while others may have to stay behind. Tomorrow is the day of joining teams. Now, go get something to eat and have fun, its lunch time." Said Iruka. The kids cheered.

"Man...what a group. Some of them need some serious therapy." Thought Iruka as he stared at Shino, Sasuke and Naruto. "Especially Naruto."

The kids ran outside and hung out. Naruto, now twelve years old, stood at an impressive five foot two. He was the tallest boy in the class. His blonde hair had grown (due to Kyuubi saying he would look more ravaging with longer hair) Due to his training with, his muscle mass increased and stamina went up. His chakra reserves jumped to ANBU but his control with at mid-Chunin rank. He grew a strange fascination for knowledge and experiments. He blamed Orochimaru for that. He learned that his cloak was alive. It would grab things, floated around and scare the crap out of people. His wind mastery had increased and he mastered Henge and Kiwarimi no Jutsu to the point he could do it without hand seals. He could now created up to fifty clones without a problem. His sword style was known as Sword-Master. With his sword, Black Storm, he would use Ryukiri. (Dragon Killer). He had two other swords, Yamato (an O-katana) and Madness, a strange type of weapon. It was two half rings on his wrists. When the rings were brought together, two massive serrated blades sprung from both sides. With Yamato, he would use Dark Slayer, a combination of Iaido and high speed movement. Madness would be Exceed, a Kenjutsu style the gave the impression of insanity and the illusion of being a lunatic.

He watched Hinata practice her Jyuuken stance and she flowed from one stance to another. Hinata had grown very well over the years. Sure she was still shy but she could hold her own. She had a ninja-to strapped to her back. Naruto smiled coldly.

"Kyuubi-hime...I want to play with Hinata-hime..."

"Be gentle Naruto."

Naruto vanished from his spot and appeared above Hinata. Hinata paled when she felt a surge of chakra. Naruto raised his hand above his head and made a fist.

"Earth Breaker." Said Naruto. Hinata jumped out of the way before Naruto's fist could connect with her head. She looked at the small crater in the ground and stared at Naruto.

"Not bad, if I held it longer you would have counterattacked me. Now...show me.." Naruto vanished. He dashed past Hinata again and again. Soon there seemed to be around four copies of Naruto running around her. If there was a few things that Naruto and Minato had in common, it was speed. Hinata activated her Byakugan and blocked a strike. Hinata had improved considerably over the years. She felt Naruto coming from above and she smirked. Generating chakra around her hands she caught his hand. He was surprised if his facial expression wasn't anything to go by. He was flipped over her shoulder and hit in the chest with a chakra palm thrust. Naruto exploded in a puff of smoke. Hinata scowled when she realized it was a clone. Her face lost all color when she spotted Naruto in the air with Black Storm.

"Lets begin shall we..."

Hinata quickly took out her ninja-to and blocked Naruto's helm breaker. The strike nearly broke her sword and her legs from trying to steady herself under Naruto's tremendous power and force.

Naruto quickly swept Hinata's legs from under her and as she fell, Naruto kicked her into the air. She clutched her ribs in pain and landed a few feet away with a thud. She stood up and growled.

Naruto stood there with a small cold smile. He raised his sword above his head.

"Sonic Boom..." With a quick slash, Naruto unleashed a gale of wind at Hinata. She jumped out of the way and ran forward. Naruto sighed and blocked the her thrust. He jumped back and dragged his sword along the ground releasing a shock wave. She rolled to the side and ran forward. Naruto jumped in the air and tossed his sword down towards the spot she was running to. Hinata closed her eyes and gasped when Naruto appeared behind her.

"From the blind spot?!"

Naruto backhanded Hinata into a tree.

"Not bad, you lasted longer this time." To his shock, Hinata disappeared. "A Bunshin?"

He coughed up some blood when Hinata struck him from behind. Naruto turned his head to her and smiled.

"Excellent, thank you Hinata-hime. It seems I grew over confident."

Hinata beamed with pride. The students watched as the two combatants sat next to each other and rested.

"U-um, Naruto-kun, I made some bento, do you want some?" Asked Hinata. He nodded and shared lunch with Hinata. Kiba watched with jealousy as Naruto sat with the Hyuuga Princess. Sakura and Ino could not figure out why Hinata, a gentle and sweet girl would want to hang out with such an intimidating man. Chouji thought Naruto was a cool guy while Shikamaru and Shino knew that if Naruto was angered, they would probably die by the boy's hand. Sasuke on the other hand was jealous of the boy's skill. Sasuke and Naruto didn't exactly see eye to eye. Sasuke, in his arrogance denounced Naruto's strength and potential. In response, Naruto beat Sasuke down. Since then, Sasuke hated Naruto but Naruto just saw him as a minor annoyance.

"You have grown well Hinata-hime. How has your water training gone?"

"I-I mastered two Suiton jutsu. Mizurappa (Violent Water Wave) and Teppoudama (Bullet).

"Good to hear. Medical Training?"

"I can heal wounds that are not too severe. Things like cuts I can do but lacerations are bit extreme N-Naruto-kun."

Naruto smiled coldly to himself. He remembered how he convinced Hiashi to allow Hinata to train in the medical field. It involved him sneaking into the Hyuuga Compound and string up Hiashi's boxers from a flag-post. Naruto had to hide for a very long time. But it was still amusing. Hinata giggled at the memory of it. Naruto sighed when he saw Sasuke approach him.

"Hey Naruto."

"What do you want Uchiha?"

"Fight me..."

"No."
"I said fight me!" Shouted Sasuke. In an instant, Naruto was holding Sasuke up by his neck.

"I will say this again...I will not bend to your wishes just because of your bloodline or name. I am not afraid of the Sharingan and I am certainly not afraid of you. Do not...I repeat do not ever anger me again Uchiha or the consequences will be dire." Said Naruto with a frigid tone. Hinata shivered at the thought of fighting an angered Naruto. Naruto let go of Sasuke and the boy fell to the ground. Before he could hit the floor, Naruto kicked him in the stomach sending him flying. Naruto sighed when the fan-girl brigade went to his rescue.

"Foolishness..."

Before the Sasuke Fan-Club could attack, it was time to go back in.

Classroom

Naruto sat next to the Hyuuga Princess and sighed.

"That Inuzuka keeps leering at you." Said Naruto.

Hinata sighed and listened to Iruka.

"Alright kids, now is the time to show us what you know. Starting with last name in alphabetical order, come down and demonstrate the three academy techniques."

Soon the kids went down to perform their techniques.

"Alright, Uchiha Sasuke is next." Sasuke's fan-girls went wild. Sasuke performed Kiwarimi, Henge and just to show off he created five Bunshins instead of the normal one. Sasuke smirked at Naruto as if egging him on. Naruto stood up and walked down the stairs when he was called.

"Alright Naruto, perform Henge no Jutsu."

Naruto looked up and transformed into the Yondaime. Iruka raised an eyebrow. "Oh the irony of it all...Alright Naruto, now perform Kiwarimi no Jutsu." Naruto switched places with Iruka, much to the Chunin's surprise. "Damn, even I have some trouble switching with people. Alright Naruto, perform Bunshin no Jutsu."

Naruto smiled.

"I am a Bunshin, a Kage Bunshin to be exact." Said the clone. Iruka's eyes went wide and he punched Naruto in the face. True to his words, the clone disappeared.

"You are full of surprises aren't you Naruto." Said Iruka as he looked up to see Naruto standing on the ceiling. The students were surprised to see Naruto standing upside down.

"When did you notice I was up here?"

"When you used Kiwarimi." Said the Chunin.

Naruto landed next to Iruka and put his hitai-ate on. He sat next to Hinata and closed his eyes.

"Today, you are of the few Genin who will grow stronger. Be proud of your achievements." Said Iruka. "Now go home."

The kids ran home, happy to join the Shinobi force. Well Naruto vanished along with Hinata.

After Naruto dropped Hinata off at her home, he vanished again.

Naruto's Compound

Naruto walked into his bedroom and sighed. His cloak left his body and went to rest on the hanger.

"No matter how many times I watch that, it still freaks me out." Said Kyuubi. Naruto sat next to her and sighed.

"How has it been going with your transformation?" Asked Kyuubi.

"Fine. I can only maintain that form for fifteen minutes. I think I will do a couple of rounds around the laboratory before going to bed." Said Naruto as he created five Kage Bunshins.

"Go cook something for us."

The clones bowed before walking off. Naruto stood up and walked through the facility. He accidently knocked over a glass jar with a black liquid in it. Naruto cursed silently and his eyes went wide when the liquid latched on to his arm. It had him in a vice like grip and soon a cut formed on his arm. The liquid went into the wound and it closed after all the liquid was inside of him.

"How odd..." Muttered the boy as if nothing happened.

"Protect...serve...protect...serve..." Chanted a voice in his head. "I will protect...I will serve...Naruto-sama..."

"Must have been that odd liquid."

Naruto's eyes went wide when something emerged from his shadow. The liquid from before covered him. It became strange body suit. It wasn't too thick or thin but just perfect. Soon plates of armor began to cover him. His demonic chakra fluxed a bit and soon he transformed into his demon form. He looked at his reflection and smirked.

"Well now, this is a surprise." With a wave of his hand, his transformation ended. He walked back to his bedroom and ate dinner with Kyuubi. He finished his meal and went to sleep. Kyuubi snuggled next to him and licked his cheek. He growled in his sleep causing Kyuubi to giggle. Her giggling stopped when Naruto slapped her rear. She let out a yelp of surprise and growled at the now smirking demon. She pounced on Naruto waking him up.

"So the fox wants to wrestle?" Asked Naruto. Kyuubi grinned evilly. Kyuubi and Naruto fought and tussled through the night.

Next Day

A group of Genin sat in class waiting to be called to join the Shinobi force. Iruka was happier then ever. The brats were leaving. "Alright kids, settle down so I can tell you who you are going to be with." Amazingly enough, the kids shut up. "First team is Team 7, Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura..." He groaned when Ino started screaming about it not being fair that Sakura was with Sasuke and how Sakura said it was true love or something along those lines. "And finally Uzumaki Naruto. Your Jounin Sensei is Hatake Kakashi.

"Team 8 is Hyuuga Hinata, Aburame Shino and Inuzuka Kiba. You're Jounin sensei is Yuuhi Kurenai." Pretty much all the boys felt a bit tight in the pants area. Long wavy black hair, curvy, red eyes and all around beauty. Team 8 stood up and walked out.

"Next team is Team 10 which consists of Nara Shikamaru, Akimichi Chouji and Yamanaka Ino." Iruka covered his ears to lessen the ear splitting wail Ino let out. "Your teacher is Sarutobi Asuma." The chain smoking Jounin sighed before rounding up his group. Iruka went off when it was time for his lunch break. Soon it was just Team 7. Sakura kept staring at Sasuke which annoyed him.

Two Hours Later

Sakura looked like she was going to blow a gasket soon. Sasuke had developed an eye twitch. Naruto grew weary and took out Black Storm shocking Sasuke and Sakura. He grabbed the tassel end and began spinning his sword.

"This shall teach him not to be late..." Muttered Naruto.

They stiffened when someone approached the door and opened it. A man with gravity defying spiky grey hair poked his head in. He wore the standard Jounin uniform, a blue face mask and his hitai-ate covering his right eye. Naruto let the sword fly and Kakashi's eye went wide.

"Oh shit!" Kakashi rolled to the side and watched as the wall behind him get destroyed.

"I missed..." Said Naruto dejectedly. Sasuke smirked while Sakura looked mortified.

"Well...my first impression is...I hate you all..." Muttered the teacher. His visible eye turned into a happy crescent. "Meet me on the roof." With that said, Kakashi vanished in a puff of smoke. Team 7 walked up the stairs to meet Kakashi on the roof.

Roof

Kakashi sighed as his students came up the stairs.

"Alright now that we're all here. Lets start with some introductions. I would like your name, likes, dislikes, hobbies and dreams." Said Kakashi.

"Um Sensei, why don't you go first seeing as we just met you?" Asked Sakura.

"Fair enough, my name is Hatake Kakashi, my likes...can't tell you, my dislikes...lots of things I don't like...hobbies...too young to know and my dream...well my dreams are either gone or achieved." Said Kakashi with his eye in a crescent. His squad just sweat-dropped.

"Alright pinky, you go first."

Sakura bristled at the name but calmed down. "My name is Haruno Sakura. I like..." She stared at Sasuke. "I dislike Ino-pig. My hobbies are..." She stared at Sasuke again and giggled. "My dream is to..." She stared at Sasuke one last time which caused a shudder to run down his back. Kakashi inwardly groaned.

"Great...a fan-girl...alright Broody, your turn."

Sasuke sighed. "My name is Uchiha Sasuke. I like to train, I dislike weakness, my arrogant sister at times and my fan-girls." Sakura sobbed a bit. "My hobbies include training to grow stronger. My dream, no goal is to confront my brother about his actions regarding my clan's genocide." Said Sasuke in a serious tone. Sakura went starry eyed while Kakashi rubbed his temples.

"An Avenger in the making...didn't see that coming. Alright blonde, your turn."

"My name is Uzumaki Naruto. I like training, reading, experimenting, knowledge and spending time in nature. I dislike ignorance and the villagers that torment me." Kakashi's eye narrowed when he realized what Naruto meant. "My hobbies include reading, training,and relaxing. My dream is...to become a legendary warrior preferable a legendary Hunter-nin, so I can travel and still be loyal to the village. I wish to reach my capacity and grow to the highest tier I can." Said Naruto.

"Well despite how odd he looks, he is pretty normal but he is has ambitions similar to a certain serpent, better keep an eye on him. Good, now that is settled, tomorrow is your survival exam."

"But Sensei...we already took an exam." Said Sakura.

"True but this is a test to make sure you kids are good enough for the field of combat. Meet me at training ground seven at eight o'clock. There is a sixty-six percent chance of failure so be ready. Oh and I recommend you don't eat breakfast as you will puke it up later. See ya..." Said Kakashi before he vanished in a puff of smoke. Naruto sighed before disappearing in a swirl of wind.

Next Day

The first to arrive was Sasuke. He sighed and sat down under the shelter of a tree. Soon he spotted pink hair and groaned. Sakura bounced happily to him and began chatting his ear off. Two hours went by and there was no sight of Naruto or Kakashi. Sasuke's left eye was twitching while Sakura's inner persona was shouting random obscenities. Around eleven o'clock, Kakashi showed up.

"Yo."

"YOU'RE LATE YOU BASTARD!" Shouted Sakura.

"Wow, the language of children today. If you must know, I was helping a old lady cross the street." Said Kakashi.

Sasuke and Sakura just glared at him. Soon Naruto appeared in his usual fashion of Shunshin. Sakura grabbed him by his cloak.

"And where were you?"

"Eating." Came his simple reply. Sakura's face turned red.

"Eating?! Sensei said not to eat!"

"Only a fool would run into combat without an empty stomach. You both fell into Sensei's trap."

Sakura turned to the man and saw that he was eye smiling. Naruto was right. Sasuke's eye twitched while Sakura screamed more obscenities.

"Well now, here is your test. There are two bells. Your goal is to take the bells from me. However, whoever doesn't get a bell goes back to the academy. You have one hour. The one without a bell gets tied to the stump while his or her comrades eats in front of them. Oh and...come at me with the intention of killing me."

"B-but Sensei...what if we hurt you?" Asked Sakura.

"Nonsense, get ready...go!" Shouted Kakashi. Sakura and Sasuke instinctively went to hide. Naruto calmly walked to a training post and sat on it. He observed the lake. Kakashi sweat-dropped.

"Well that was new." Said the Jounin to himself. He took out his book and began to read. He giggled every now and then. Kakashi quickly switched himself with a log. Soon a hail of shuriken hit the log and Sasuke cursed.

"Dammit...I thought I had him."

"First lesson, Taijutsu." Sasuke turned around and panicked.

"Konoha's Ancient Supreme Technique: Sennen Goroshi!" Kakashi reared his fingers back and jammed them violently into Sasuke's neither region. Sasuke flew through the air holding his ass and he landed face first. Sakura was mortified while Naruto merely raised an eyebrow.

"Note to self, avoid technique at all cost."

Kakashi disappeared and Sakura felt a tap on her shoulder.

"Second lesson, Genjutsu. Magen: Narakumi no Jutsu." (Demonic Illusion: Hell Viewing Technique)

Kakashi put Sakura under a spell and walked away. A swirl of leaves surrounded Sakura before disappearing. She looked around frantically while holding a kunai. She heard a rustle in the bushes and turned around to see a mutilated Sasuke.

"Sakura...h-help me..."

A second later, his head was chopped off and it rolled in front of Sakura. Ten seconds later, a horrified scream echoed through the forest. "Perhaps I over did it." Thought the Jounin.

He dodged a volley of kunai and saw Sasuke performing seals.

"Katon: Goukakyuu no Jutsu!" Sasuke took a deep breathe and exhaled a massive fireball.

Kakashi's eye went wide when the fireball engulfed him. Soon the fire died out and Sasuke saw no trace of his sensei.

"Where is he? Left, right, above?"

"How about below?" Asked Kakashi. "Doton: Shinjuu Zanshu no Jutsu! (Earth Release: Double Suicide Decapitation Technique)

Sasuke felt a hand grab his leg and pull him underground. Kakashi emerged from the ground and snickered at Sasuke's pissed expression.

"You're good but not good enough."

He turned to his final student who was still admiring nature. He sighed.

"Look Naruto, if you don't try then there is no point..."

Kakashi's eye narrowed when he felt something was off. He threw a rock at the boy and watched as it vanished in a puff of smoke.

"A Bunshin?"

Kakashi heard footsteps coming towards him. He spotted the cloaked child and sighed.

"So are you ready to try?"

"So be it..." Came Naruto's reply. Naruto lunged forward surprising Kakashi with his speed. Naruto flew into a flurry of fists surprising Kakashi again. The veteran Shinobi bobbed and weaved his way through the assault. Kakashi jumped over his sweeper kick and crouched low when the boy tried to catch him off guard with a roundhouse kick.

"He's good..." Thought Kakashi as he dodged a fist. Kakashi's instincts told him to duck and he was glad he did. He spotted Naruto holding Black Storm and his eyes went wide.

Naruto rushed forward and began jabbing at Kakashi. Kakashi put his book away and took out a kunai. He blocked the attack and bounced back. Naruto flew into a flurry a swipes, stabs and slashes.

"What is with this kid? That sword is at least six feet in length and he swings it around with one hand."

Kakashi reached for his hitai-ate but chided himself.

"Great, me using my eye on a fresh Genin." Whispered Kakashi to himself. Naruto stopped in the middle of a stride and stared at Sasuke's prone form. Naruto ran towards Sasuke and drove his hand into the ground. He pulled the Uchiha out of the ground and retreated with the boy. Sasuke was surprised.

"Hey! What are you doing you idiot?!" Shouted Sasuke as Naruto dragged him into the forest. Kakashi had a dumb look on his face.

"Well that was new. I wonder if he figured it out though?"

Naruto raced through the treetops and spotted Sakura's unconscious form. He prodded her with his foot and she awoke. She took one look at the Uchiha boy and threw herself at him. Sasuke jumped to the side causing Sakura to eat some dirt.

"Alright dobe, you dragged me here, so what gives?" Asked Sasuke.

"To defeat Kakashi-san, we must work together..." Said Naruto calmly.

"Tch, like I need your help to beat him." Said Sasuke in his proud tone.

"Yeah, Sasuke-kun is rookie of the year, he can do it himself." Shouted Sakura.
"Fools...did you forget that even though it is three of us, he outclasses us? We weren't meant to get the bells, it was to make us fight amongst ourselves. Going after him one on one is foolish. We need to at least attempt to work together." Said Naruto. Sasuke snorted.

"Why should I listen to you?"

"Because Kakashi-san has demonstrated that he is more than capable of defeating the rookie of the year. Twice I might add." Said Naruto. Sasuke's eye twitched and then he sighed.

"Fine, I'll help you."

"Sakura?" Asked Naruto.

"And the wimp too." Finished Sasuke. Sakura had tears flowing down her eyes.

"Good...here is the plan..."

Five Minutes Later

Kakashi stared at the timer and smirked.

"Only five minutes left. How will these kids pull it off?"

A hail of shuriken and kunai flew towards him.

"Here we go again." Thought the Jounin. He jumped out of the way and he spotted Sasuke racing towards him with two kunai in hand. Kakashi ducked a swipe and then a jab. He jumped back when Sakura threw some kunai at him.

"Are they actually working together?"

Sakura tossed more shuriken causing Kakashi to jump back even more. He looked at his surroundings and found himself in an open field. He heard something akin to a something charging up. He turned around to see Naruto holding his sword upwards. It sounded like the boy was generating energy.

"Sonic Boom!" The boy unleashed a crescent wave of chakra upon Kakashi.

"Oh shit!" Shouted Kakashi as rolled to the side.

"Now Sasuke!" Shouted Naruto.

"Katon: Housenka no Jutsu!" Shouted the Uchiha. He spat out multiple fire balls at Kakashi. Kakashi grinned as he pulled down his mask.

"Suiton: Suijinheki!"

He spat out water and it formed a wall between him and the fireballs. When the wall came down, Naruto and Sasuke both held their blades to his neck.

"We got you sensei..." Muttered Sakura.

"Not bad, you actually decided to work together." Said Kakashi. Naruto stabbed him and the Jounin turned out to be a Kage Bunshin. Sasuke's eyes went wide but Naruto merely sighed.

"I figured as much."

"Not bad you guys. You're the first team I actually passed. Teamwork is the key to passing my test. A good friend once told me, those who disobey the rules are trash, those who abandon their comrades, are worse than trash. Now go celebrate."

Kakashi vanished in a swirl of leaves while Naruto chose his regular mode of Shunshin. Sasuke smirked and decided he was going to indulge when he gets home.

"Tomatoes...here I come..."

"Hey Sasuke-kun..."

"No..." Came his swift reply as he took off. Sakura pouted and walked home.

Next Day

Sasuke and Sakura sat at the training spot. Sasuke looked murderous while Sakura looked like she was ready to pull her hair out. Both their teacher and their teammate was late again. Naruto appeared and two minutes later and Kakashi showed up.

"WHY ARE YOU BOTH LATE?!" Shouted Sakura.

"Sleeping." Came Naruto's simple reply.

"Got lost on the road of life." Lied Kakashi. Sasuke twitched while Sakura let out frustrated scream.

"Sensei is always two hours late to what ever time he said he was going to come. I thought you two would have guess from two days ago." Said Naruto as he tilted his head to the side.

Sakura wrapped her hands around Naruto's neck and began throttling him. He disappeared in a puff smoke. Sakura looked around and spotted on a tree branch sitting down.

"Violent temper, Sakura, you must relax."

"Well, now that we're all here, lets begin with some training exercises. Naruto, I want you to spar with Sasuke."

Naruto turned to the Uchiha and his eyes narrowed. Naruto's new attire consisted of a black battle jacket with silver lining that went to his thighs. A pair of black pants and shinobi sandals. He had a black metal face mask on his face. His hitai-ate rested on around his neck. His cape billowed in the wind. Naruto nodded and leapt off the tree. The speed he used caused the tree branch he was on to be destroyed. Sasuke's eyes went wide and he rolled to the side to avoid being crushed by Naruto's stomp from hell. Sasuke jumped back and took out a pair of kunai. He tossed them at Naruto and the blonde shinobi teleported with his Shunshin into a tree. Sasuke growled and began performing seals.

"Katon: Housenka no Jutsu!"

Sasuke let out some fireballs. Naruto jumped in the air and began kicking his legs out. Soon blades of wind flew from his leg.

"Fuuton: Rankyaku Ran..." (Wind Release: Storm Leg War)

The blades collided with the fireballs, canceling them out and some even flew towards Sasuke.

Naruto landed and got into stance. He flew towards Sasuke with his leg extended. Sasuke blocked the kick and flipped Naruto over his shoulder. Naruto landed in a handstand and caught Sasuke off guard with a helicopter kick. Naruto rushed forward in an odd stance. He seemed to be gliding across the floor. Sasuke got into stance but was suddenly hit in the face with three swift blows.

"I didn't even see him move his hands!"

Naruto kicked Sasuke and the Uchiha skid across the ground. Naruto raised his arm up and sighed.

"Earth Breaker." He punched Sasuke with an Earth Breaker at ten percent of power. The blow made him cough up some blood.

"Do you yield?"

"Ugh...my chest..." Groaned Sasuke.

"I take that as a yes." Said Naruto. Naruto stood up and walked away from the beaten Sasuke. Naruto sighed to himself and tilted his head to the right to avoid Sakura's fist.

"How dare you beat up Sasuke-kun like that?" Screeched Sakura. Naruto suddenly crouched low and swept Sakura off her feet with a sweeper kick and caught her by her ankle. He hung her upside down and sighed.

"Never attack an opponent without knowing his strength. It will get you killed." Said Naruto in a bored tone. He flung Sakura and watched as she landed on her rear.

"Well now, I suppose we can get in a D-rank mission in before we go home." Said Kakashi with a happy eye smile. His squad groaned.

Four Hours Later

"I have come to the conclusion...that children are quite annoying..." Muttered Naruto.

"Agreed." Said Sasuke.

"It wasn't so bad." Offered Sakura. Her male teammates just glared at her. She shrunk under their glares.

"Alright team, meet me at the training grounds tomorrow. Lets say around eight thirty shall we?" Said Kakashi. He patted Naruto on his head. Sasuke got a head pat as well. Kakashi vanished in a swirl of leaves. Sasuke's eye twitched.

"I must learn that move..."

Naruto sighed as he performed his Shunshin which served to annoy Sasuke even more.

"Even he knows it!"

Sasuke grunted and marched home. Sakura was sighed and walked home alone.

Uchiha Compound

Sasuke walked through his empty home.

"Why, brother, why? Why did you cause such a destruction and only spare me?"

Sasuke walked into his room and put his head on his pillow.

"Brother, I will find the answers."

He went to sleep with the hopes of defeating his rival slash teammate.

C.Kirby: I was bored one day and this popped into my head.

Kyuubi: How come I'm so...

C.Kirby: Kind, loyal and obedient. Well you'll find out soon. Next chapter is Land of Waves, Battle of the Bloodlines. Also Naruto will gain a summoning contract.
