Yes I know I should update my first story, to be honest THIS is the first story I wrote while watching 'Hell In a Cell' so I hope you like it and as always critics will bevwell received to better my stories. Enjoy.

I don't own Naruto nor WWE I'm just a big fan of both.

That's when it hit me, back home they never liked me, I was just the "demon brat", the old man always tried to make my life bearable, it was almost impossible to get the things I needed to survive, I strived to survive, that made me stronger... that was my childhood... this is my present and my future.

"And the Rookie goes down again" Miro the announcer shouted to the fans watching, the crowd was going wild in the stadium chanting and hollering "Man that suplex was brutal right on top of the steel chair, but look at him, he keeps on getting up, and coming back striking with a hard right to the champ."

That's right, that's me... The Rookie, my name is Uzumaki Naruto, I come from Konohagakure no Sato in Hi no Kuni, and this is my debut in the professional wrestling circuit of Iwa. Now you must be wondering what a Konoha citizen is doing in Iwa, bitter rivals since the 2nd Great War, enemies for life since the 3rd. Well I rather live where I'm at least recognized for being a wrestler... unlike Konoha where they only recognize me for being the jinchuriki of the Kyubbi no Kitsune.

(Normal P.O.V)

"Ohhhh Takeshi recoils from that clothesline from Uzumaki, it looks like he is trying to get back into the match," Miro was going nuts with the match, both Naruto and Takeshi going toe to toe kicking, punching, and beating the shit out of each other. "It seems that Uzumaki plans to end it all right now, he is loading the Kyubbi Punch" Naruto was crouched down on the corner of the ring, Takeshi was stunned... this rookie, this nobody was actually beating him, he had been toying with him since the start, never taking him seriously, why should he, it was just a rookie, a rookie from that damnable village of Konoha.

My story starts not by the sealing the forth did to save Konoha from the Kyubbi, yeah it aint going to start there. We start all when I was in a three year trip around the Elemental Nations with my sensei Jiraiya, we were camping by the Iwa-Kumo border "Ero-sennin... why is it so hard to get the villagers approval" I asked my parental figure. He stayed silent for a moment, "well gaki sometimes people are blind and stupid, and fear what they don't understand, it's just the way they are" I just couldn't believe it... right there I remember the IWF. "Ero-sennin... I want to try my luck in Iwa... more specifically the IWF." Jiraiya was speechless, he never thought the boy would simply give up on Konoha's people just like that... but he could understand it, after all the shit he went thru. "All right gaki... but tell me, are you sure you want that?" he asked rather seriously. "Yeah, I'm sure... I'm damn sure I want to do it."

"Aaaaaannnnd BOOOOOOOM the Kyubbi Punch lands! Takeshi is down ladies and gentleman! I can't believe it the rookie just knocked out the Prodigal Son here in his debut in IWF!" Miro stated, the crowd was going wild chanting for Naruto, and he was basking on the attention... finally a good type of attention, he crawled over to Takeshi and covered him, the ref slides down and started the count "1!, 2!, 3! Ring the bell!" the ref called over to the timekeeper. "THE WINNER OF THIS MATCH! UZUMAKI NARUTO!" the beautiful Zaki said to the crowds delight, the whole stadium, full of both Iwa ninjas and Iwa citizens were cheering for Naruto.

I tuned out everything except my music, I was being praised, (play invincible by MGK ft. Easter Dean), I walked toward the turnbuckle and stood tall on the second rope soaking the cheers by the crowd, for about a minute I stood there, I got down and started walking towards the locker-room, the rest of the superstars were there congratulating me, both for a great match and for the debut. when I got to my locker Ero-sennin was there smiling proudly "I got news from Konoha, Tsunade says that she hopes you find what Konoha couldn't give you here in Iwa, and she discharged you from the ninja corps officially, so you don't have to worry about hunter-nin appear mid show or during your travels" he said but was interrupted by somebody "don't worry Jiraiya-sama he is in good hands, we take care of everyone of the wrestlers here, even if they were born in Konoha." This was Ryuu the IWF champion... and the first wrestler to see potential in me. "thanks Ryuu-san, well gaki I have to go, I'll try to either come for the PPV or I'll get Tsunade to get it to watch it back home" Jiraiya said, I waved goodbye and left the locker-room to go back to my apartment.

Naruto standing at 5 feet 8 inches was ripped, when he took off his shirt you could see the six-pack, the pecks well defined, the biceps and triceps also defined, all in all he looked like a Greek hero, with his sun-kissed blond hair, cerulean eyes that looked like the ocean, his three whiskers-like birthmarks that made the girls swoon and his fans to go nuts, in his left arm and peck he had a Samoan style sleeve tattoo, and on his right arm he had a dragon coiling around his arm and what looked like a sleeve of skull tattoo, at 17 he still remembers where he came from and why but didn't let it rule him or his future, he had the biggest match of his young career.

The IWF championship was vacated due to a torn ACL of Ryuu and Naruto was in the match to be crowned, but he had to go thru Takeshi first. Takeshi and Naruto started a rivalry since Narutos debut, and he took every opportunity he had to embarrass Naruto or simply to make fun of him. But that's a story for another time, Naruto had another problem, a bigger problem he would have to go to Konoha to fight for the IWF championship, why he didn't know but the Tsuchikage thought it would be good for business to start traveling thru all the elemental nations and giving shows.

So here he was packing getting ready for the trip back to Konoha, he started to ponder if things had changed at all after he left 3 years ago, he hoped they at least got over their hatred towards Kyubbi, but he didn't really expected anything. After he finished packing he decided to have a quick shower and some ramen before he was due to be at the villages' gate for departure. 1 hour later he was standing at the gates with all the wrestlers and technicians that help set up the lights and pyrotechniques, Takeshi as always was glaring at him while his lackeys were standing by his side trying to look intimidating. Ryuu was also there to offer advice to some and to hand over the IWF title officially, 5 minutes later the Tsuchikage made his way to the front of the wrestlers "Ok guys, ready to leave to Konoha?" he asked, everybody answer with a quick "Hai" he smiled and started walking "Perfect let's get moving, it's quite a long trip from here to Konoha" and everybody just grab their bags and started following their leader and boss.

(Time skip: Konoha's Village Gate)

Izumo and Kotetsu "The Eternal Chunnin" were guarding the gate when Tsunade and a squad of ANBU appeared and started barking orders "Hurry up the Tsuchikage and the IWF roster will be here any minute! I want every Jonnin to clear a path thru the crowd so they can reach their hotel! And get me Kakashi here this instant!" a chorus of "Hai Hokage-sama" were said and everybody got to work.

You could see a lot of villagers waiting for the wrestlers and the Tsuchikage to arrive, Tsunade turn back to look towards the entrance where she knew Naruto would come thru any minute, she had missed the blond haired gaki, and his antics would always give her an excuse to stop the bane of all Kages... Paperwork. When she received the message from Jiraiya she was broken, but understood his situation and gave him what he needed, and after three years she would be able to see him again.

The Konoha twelve were excited, three years had come and gone since they heard the news of Naruto dropping off the Shinobi Program. Sakura was heartbroken, first she lost her "Sasuke-kun" and then she lost the "baka" she used as punching bag to make herself feel better, she felt like she was a failure and started taking her training more seriously, going as far as to be apprenticed under Tsunade.

Shikamaru, Kiba, and Choji were excited to see their old pranking buddy to catch up, or in Choji's case, try to out eat him in a Ramen eating contest. Lee wanted to see how well Naruto's "Flame of Youth" shined, Neji and Tenten and Shino just wanted to catch up with him.

Hinata was broken hearted when she heard that Naruto would not come back ever and wanted to live in Iwa, she never had the chance to tell her how she felt, but Kiba was there for her and she just couldn't help but feel drawn to him, he just gave her that feeling of complete security, and he always tried to make her smile and cheer her up.

When Ino heard the news of Naruto leaving she was broken, she started to remember when she first met Naruto, he protected her from some bullies that were making fun of her, he came like a Knight in shining armor, she could not help but blush at those times and memories. She hated that she had to start ignoring him in favor of fawning over Sasuke so she wouldn't lose her friendship with Sakura. She just wanted to see him, hug him and apologize for everything she did or said to him.

Finally after 20 minutes of waiting the Konoha villagers and ninja got to see the IWF wrestlers and the Tsuchikage, but some were more excited about Naruto's return to Konoha, when he left, Tsunade assembled the whole village and told them about Naruto and how the council tried to screw up his childhood and education and put them against him so they could get a weapon out of it. Some of the villagers were mad because Tsunade was making stories up to make Naruto look like the good guy and the "Honorable Civilian Council" to be the bad guys, but the rest of the villagers were thinking about the way they treated him.

The Tsuchikage was ready for anything, when you lived as long as he has you tend to be on guard all the time, but he most certainly was not prepared for what happened when they arrived at Konoha's Gate, he heard cheering for all his wrestlers but the one they were calling out the more was Naruto's who was walking next to him and Ryuu, he stopped dead in his tracks was he hearing right, was he going insane because he was being cheered on just as much or even more than the rest of the wrestlers, he didn't knew that IWF transmissions got all the way to Konoha. But right now that didn't matter he had to focus on the match at the end the week.

The wrestlers were approached by Tsunade and "The Rookie 12", each one had a smile or smirk except Sakura that was sneering seeing the blond prankster. While Ino had a small smile and a light blush seeing him again she couldn´t help but notice the tattoo he sported in both arms and thought it made him look better.

"Tsuchikage-dono how was the trip? Hope you had no troubles getting here" Tsunade said towards the Iwa committee.

"It was fine Tsunade-hime no troubles at all" Oonoki said, "Well... except some back pains but Ryuu and Naruto helped carry my luggage" he gave a sheepish smile, while the Konoha nins gave a small smile toward the Tsuchikage, the wrestlers were checking out the surroundings, all the while keeping an eye on some of the people knowing they might be asked to get a picture or sign a t-shirt.

"Well our hotel awaits Tsunade-hime, it was a kindness of you to see us arrive safe and sound" The Tsuchikage said with a smirk.

"Go sign some autographs guys, mingle a little with the locals." with that they started to walk towards the crowd, some shouting for a picture, others just wanting to get acknowledge, but everybody wanted to be seen by Naruto. Naruto just walked towards a brunette that he recognizes as Konohamaru.

While Konohamaru was speechless, both Udon and Moegi were trying to get their posters of Naruto so he could sign it for them. "Hey guys, how you been doing?" Naruto asked the three gennin, smiling towards them. "Boss! We've missed you, will you be coming back?" the Konohamaru corps asked, with hope shinning in their eyes to have their "Boss" back so he could teach them a cool move. "I don't think so Ko, my schedule is pretty busy for this next three months" he told them, and when Udon and Moegi offered him the posters he chuckled and signed them all the time smiling. "Naruto!" he heard somebody calling him, turning around he was faced with his former classmates.

"Hey guys, long time no see. How ya been?" he asked, his answer came in the form of a group hug. "We've been doing great man we all made chunnin at least, and Shika and Neji made jounin! Can you believe that?" Kiba all but shouted while he grabbed Narutos shoulders.

"Kiba, you should not be shouting in Naruto-san face, you could cause some damage to his ears." Shino said with a stoic tone, "I hope Iwa has treated you well and fair Naruto-san, it has been rather dull without you around here", everybody could see a tiny smile was forming in the stoic and hooded Aburames face.

"Thanks Shino, and yeah I've been treated well over there, but I think the fans are what make it all worthy hehe" Naruto stated with a small smile of his own.

"So Naruto-baka when will you return to active duty and stop this charade you've been playing for the past two years?" Sakura sneered to her former teammate, thinking he was just messing around and would come back to be her punching bag and practice dummy, the rest of the rookies were stunned to hear that Sakura thought he would come back, Naruto just turned around and started walking towards Ryuu with a small smile.

"Hey Ryuu, guess what?" he shouted to his mentor and friend "She thinks I'm just messing around and that I will come back. Can you believe that?" all the while pointing towards Sakura and laughing a little, all the wrestlers started to snicker and laugh when they heard that, even Takeshi couldn't believe what he just heard 'to think that this banshee think that is freaking hilarious, Naruto never messes around and he takes seriously his career, everybody has read his letter of "Honorable Discharge" of the Konoha Ninja Force' he thought.

Ryuu was laughing and pointing to the 'Rookie 12' all the time, "hahaha that's a great joke pinky but Naruto aint messing around here, and 'sides I think he likes the Iwa women better than you Konoha girls hahahha" he said between laughs, "Everybody has read the letter of 'Honorable Discharge' he receive when he made his debut against Takeshi, after that he became an official Iwa citizen" he stated with an easy grin. After that little argument the IWF people left to unpack and rest a little from the journey.

"Hey Ryuu, I'm going out for some Ichiraku Ramen you coming?" Naruto asked getting his t-shirt and shoes, "No thanks man, I'm still tired from the trip and I want to rest from my surgery" Ryuu said while lying down on his bed. Naruto shrugged his shoulders and walked out of the room and towards the lobby. While he was walking down the streets he felt the stares like those in Iwa, but he couldn't help and think they were fake.

Meanwhile Ino was walking down the street with Sakura talking "So do you think Naruto-baka will come back soon so he can keep his promise to me? I mean he has to be joking with that stupidity of wrestling. Right?" Sakura said while Ino looked at her like she was crazy.

"Sakura, you don't understand right? Naruto-kun won't be coming back to be a ninja. He might come back to rest and visit when he is free for a time." Ino said trying to make her understand that Naruto wouldn't come back for a time "Besides I think he doesn't care about Sasuke anymore."

"How can you say that Ino-pig?! Besides he must be undercover trying to steal as many jutsus as he can to bring back to Konoha." Ino couldn't help but shake her head at Sakuras ignorance. 'Was I this shallow before? Just to keep a friend happy I let go of someone who could actually make me happy?' she thought to herself, that's when she saw him walking down the street towards her, she ran towards him and greeted him

"Hi Naruto! How are you?" "Oh it's you Ino, I'm good just bored and hungry so I was gonna go to Ichiraku's" He said with a bored expression. He started walking again when he heard "You want company... we could catch up a little." To say that Naruto was confused would be an understatement, he just nodded and Ino started walking by his side, he could feel the stares towards him and Ino. The girls were all jealous of Ino cause they couldn't go near him, and the guys jealous of him because he was walking besides a beauty like Ino, of course he didn't know that. Meanwhile Ino was stealing glances towards him and couldn't help but blush a little and remember her early days when he would play with her and make her smile, but that made her remember also that she blew it with trying to get Sasuke to notice her because of her friendship with Sakura.

While Ino was talking with Naruto, Sakura was daydreaming of the day Naruto would keep his promise to her and bring back her 'Sasuke-kun' so she could be with him again. When she realized that Ino wasn't by her side anymore she started looking everywhere for her, and was surprised when she found her talking with Naruto and decided to follow them,

"So Naruto, you really won't come back to the village anytime soon?" Ino tried to break the ice, with the first question that popped in her mind. "Well... I will come back but just for vacations, right now we will be staying in Konoha for a while, part of the Tsuchikage's idea to spread the greatness of IWF, or something like that. I wasn't paying attention when I was told that part" he laughed sheepishly and scratched the back of his head, Ino couldn't help but blush at the gesture, she always found it cute when he did that. "Anyways how have you been this past two years? I see you made chunnin same as everybody.

Naruto stated not knowing what to talk about, and flashed a foxy smile that made Ino's heart speed up.

"Well yeah I did, about a year ago same with Kiba and Choji we were the last to be promoted, what about you will you return to active service here in Konoha or back in Iwa?" she said while trying to hold back a blush.

"No I won't go back to active service, neither here nor back in Iwa, I actually love wrestling and want to spend the rest of my time doing it" after he said that he pulled the curtains of the ramen bar back so Ino could step thru, this just made Ino blush and to remember when they were little kids.

"Hey Teuchi-ojisan get me 5 miso ramen please!" Naruto yelled while entering and sitting at the counter, meanwhile Teuchi and Ayame were speechless, he was back not to stay but he was back. "Coming right up Naruto-kun, tell me have you found a better ramen bar back in Iwa?" Teuchi asked frantically to his favorite costumer and person both him and Ayame consider family.

"Uhh well no actually the ramen back in Iwa is not like yours, I missed Ichirakus 'Food of The Gods' Ramen Bar!" Naruto started crying while he said this, Ayame was relieved to see him acting like he used to and Teuchi was happy that his ramen still was the best for Naruto. "What will you want young lady" Ayame asked Ino, holding up a little notepad to take her order "Ohh well a medium vegetarian ramen please" Ino answered a little nervous, Ayame just smiled back and started to make Ino's bowl while she talked to Naruto about his life for the past two years.

"So Naruto-kun tell us, how you been doing in the IWF we don't get to see it that much but we have heard of your matches" Ayame asked excited to hear his stories, Naruto scratched his whiskered cheek and started to tell her.

"Well I've won the IWF championship twice, the Iwa Village championship once and the Heavyweight championship once, and this Sunday I have a shot at the IWF championship again." Ino, Teuchi and Ayame were surprised by the amount of titles he had won, Ino couldn't help but smile and give the sun-kissed blond a hug. "Well Teuchi-ojisan I have to go its great to see you and Ayame are doing great, Ill be back later. See ya later Ino, I hope to see you cheering me this Sunday" he said while paying for his bowls and Ino's bowl and winking at her, she couldn't help but blush more after he did that.

It was a peaceful night in Konoha, every kid was getting ready for bed and talking excitedly about their favorite wrestler or telling their parents that they saw Naruto eating with the Yamanaka girl. Ino was thinking about the lunch she had with Naruto 'Wow Naruto-kun grew up a lot, and looks really handsome, I wish I didn't screwed up when Sakura accused me of liking Sasuke and starting that stupid rivalry... Now that I think about it Naruto's rivalry with Sasuke started when Sakura accused me, damn it' she thought to herself and wished Sakura didn't believe that stupid rumor. Inoichi was looking at his princess remembering that contract he made with Naruto's father before he sacrificed himself, he didn't know how to tell Ino that she would be married to her childhood crush, but first he had to talk to Naruto and explain something's so he wouldn't freak-out when he told him.

Naruto sat in his bed thinking about Ino and how she changed this 3 years 'Man Ino sure is more beautiful than I remember before I left, wish I had told her how I felt for her before' he thought with a sad smile. 'I hope that whoever is dating her takes care of her, and makes her happy.' He went to sleep with that thought, he had a long training day tomorrow to get ready for his championship match in four days.

All right here we go. I hope you like it...
