Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto just this story

Naruto can't believe how easy it was to steal the scroll of sealing it was so easy Mizuki also said to learn a Jutsu so he did it took two hours but he learned the Kage Bunshin No Jutsu (Shadow Clone Technique) he's just sitting there waiting for Mizuki when he hears his name and looks up and sees Iruka "Hey Iruka-Sensei I did my mission does that make me a genin now."

Iruka looks confused "Naruto what are you talking about you failed the genin exam."

Naruto seems confused "I know that but Mizuki-Sensei gave me a mock exam he told me to steal this and learn a Jutsu from it then I could become a Genin so I did pretty cool aye."

Iruka's in shock Why would Mizuki tell him this.

Just then they hear another voice "Ah so you found him that wasn't in the plan but oh well give me the scroll Naruto."

Naruto looks confused "You told me I could become a Genin if I stole this."

Mizuki laughs "Ah, Stupid naive little Naruto just give me the scroll."

Iruka turns to Naruto "Do not give him the scroll."

Mizuki snaps "Give me the scroll demon brat."

Iruka turns to Mizuki "What are you doing Mizuki."

Mizuki scoffs "Shut up Iruka you are such an idiot how can you possibly like Naruto knowing what he did to your parents."

Naruto looks shocked as does Iruka Don't do it Mizuki it's forbidden. Mizuki snarls "Forget this die demon."

He pulls out a Fuma Shuriken and tosses it at Naruto who's too shocked to move luckily Iruka jumps in the way and shields Naruto but takes the Shuriken to the back.

Iruka smiles though he's in pain "Run, Naruto don't let him get the scroll."

At first, Naruto does nothing then he nods and runs off Mizuki goes after him whilst Iruka pulls out the Shurikenand tosses it on the ground before going after Naruto. Naruto's hiding in the bushes when he sees Iruka go past on the trees he's about to shout out to him when he sees no damage to Iruka's back so he jumps out and kicks him in the back.

Mizuki jumps up "You little brat how did you know."

Naruto grins "You had no injuries to your back."

Mizuki smirks "So you figured it out huh well it won't matter give me the damn scroll."

Naruto snarls "No."

Mizuki jumps into the tree and gets ready with another Fuma Shuriken he smirks "Have you ever wondered why everyone calls you a demon."

Naruto has always wondered that "Why."

Just then Iruka comes out "Shut up Mizuki it's forbidden."

Naruto shouts "TELL ME."

Mizuki grins "You heard of the Kyuubi correct well it didn't die you are the Kyuubi everyone hates you because you are the demon you killed thousands of people your nothing but a monster you killed Iruka's parents, He doesn't like you he hates you."

Naruto looks at Iruka who looks down in shame Naruto turns away and runs away Mizuki's about to go after him but Iruka stops him "Why are you defending him he killed your parents."

Iruka pushes Mizuki back "Yes the Kyuubi killed my parents and I hate the Kyuubi."

Naruto who's already had his world turned upside down has now heard his Sensei who he thought of as a friend hates him then he hears something unexpected.

Iruka smirks "Naruto is not the Kyuubi he's the Kyuubi's jailer he's a hero Naruto is a good kid."

Iruka looks into the bushes then turns back just as Mizuki stabs him with a Kunai. Naruto jumps out of the bushes and kicks Mizuki away "Don't you hurt Iruka-Sensei Teme."

Mizuki grins "And what are you going to do about it, your a lowly Genin whereas I'm a Chūnin."

Naruto glares at him "You remember what the mission was you gave me steal the scroll and learn a Jutsu well I did Kage Bunshin No Jutsu over 100 Naruto's appear and they all crack their knuckles Mizuki looks on in dread whilst Iruka looks on in shock and surprise. The next moment all 100 Naruto's jump down and attack Mizuki all Iruka can hear is the screams as he's beaten to a pulp by Naruto.

Naruto stands there looking at the unconscious battered body of Mizuki and does nothing he feels nothing he turns around he looks at Iruka but is unsure what to do Iruka-Sensei knew about the Kyuubi but didn't tell him "WHY DIDN'T YOU TELL ME I HAD A RIGHT TO KNOW WHY I'M HATED.

Just then ANBU arrive they look at Mizuki and Naruto then Iruka they take Mizuki away and Iruka to the hospital one of the ANBU with long purple hair approaches Naruto "Uzumaki-San we should get the scroll back to the Hokage."

Naruto just nods. And She puts a hand on his shoulder before they both Shunshin away. They arrive back in the tower Neko gives the scroll to Hiruzen who puts it away. Neko then leaves Hiruzen already know what happened and by the look, Naruto's giving him he's not happy with anyone.

Hiruzen sighs "I am sorry Naruto."

Naruto snaps "Like hell you are ever since I was born I've been hated ever since I've been old enough to run I've been doing that as I run for my life from villagers countless times left beaten broken lying in my own blood and filth attacked for someone the damn Yondaime put in me Iruka calls me a hero well I am no Hero I am a demon child plain and simple."

Hiruzen sighs "I am sorry."

Naruto scoffs "I treated you like my grandfather and this is how you repay me well thanks but no thanks I don't need you I don't need anyone I will find my own path in life."

Hiruzen sighs "And what about your goal to become Hokage."

Naruto shakes his head "A pathetic dream nothing more I'd never be excepted so why waste my time trying."

Hiruzen sighs "I understand" He opens up a draw "Do you still want to be a Ninja of Konoha."

Naruto just nods and Hiruzen nods and passes him something it's a Leaf Headband."

Naruto nods "Can I go."

Hiruzen nods "You can go."

Naruto opens the door and leaves and Hiruzen sighs "Mizuki you idiot his mind is broken because of you."

Naruto heads home not even caring about the glares. He unlocks the door to his apartment and heads inside he goes straight to his bed and falls asleep within moments.

The next day he wakes up and looks at himself in the mirror his eyes look dead inside Naruto clenches his fist and punches the mirror shattering it. He then steps in the shower and washes his body from yesterday plus the blood dripping from his hand as the wound slowly closes.

He climbs out of the shower and doesn't care about the broken glass on the floor he just heads back into his bedroom and pulls on his non-orange clothes a black T-shirt and shorts to match. He sees the headband Jiji gave him and puts it on his arm. He then grabs some money from the floorboards and leaves his apartment.

He walks around the streets its time for a new look a darker look he goes past several shops until he sees a shop he's never been into before he uses Henge first then heads inside. He goes straight to the black clothes he grabs a basket and then picks up 10 pairs of Black Combat pants with multiple pockets. He then grabs 10 Black long sleeved jumpers, 10 black t-shirts, He picks up several pairs of fingerless gloves with metal plates on them. He grabs several black jackets with hoods on. Lastly, he gets several pairs of combat boots.

He's now finished with the clothes so he moves to Weapons he grabs two pack of Kunai and the same of Shuriken, He grabs Ninja wire, Ninja Stars, Senbon Needles, He looks at Blades but then walks away, He stops at sealing scrolls.

A man behind him nods "Quite a lot of stuff there oh I see your looking at sealing scrolls might be a good idea with all this you bought I own the place do you want me to start cashing this up whilst you keep looking."

Naruto just nods and passes him the basket and keeps looking he grabs several of each scroll size, He then goes to the camping supplies he grabs a tent, Sleeping bag, Cooking supplies and then heads to the counter and adds them to the rest of his stuff. He expects this to add up to most of what he's got but is surprised when it barely comes to half a little over a quarter actually he'll have to come her more often. Then the man shows him how to use the sealing scroll and then seals everything in them Naruto's surprised but thanks him for showing him.

He heads home the first thing he does is burn all his old Orange Jumpsuits. He then puts on his new clothes and leaves the apartment he has the hood over his face he then walks to the Ninja library he Henge's again and heads inside he looks at books on Basic Taijutsu styles, He gets a book on Chakra exercises. He then gets one one on Ninjutsu and lastly Kenjutsu which he'll learn later.

He has a quick look in the book about Chakra and finds there's a section on Chakra Paper and what it's used for so he gets all the books out and leaves he heads back to shop where he bought all his gear and buys some Chakra paper then leaves again he walks back home it doesn't take long as soon as he gets in he locks the door.

He Looks through the books and finds one he didn't remember picking up it's about Fuinjutsu (Sealing) He just nods and picks up the book on Ninjutsu when he flips through he catches a section on Shadow Clones so he reads it then he smirks "Kage Bunshin No Jutsu" 20 clones appears and he looks at them "Get reading you go and buy me some Ramen and soda's"

For the next several hours Naruto and his clones read everything when there all done he dispels then two at a time he then lays on his bed and drifts off to sleep. One more day before the Genin teams are picked which means he has a day to master some of the Chakra exercises.

The next day comes and he leaves the house early he finds a secluded spot and starts with the Chakra paper he's surprised his affinity is Wind a very rare in Konoha he's also water that's cool he guesses. He does some handsigns "Kage Bunshin No Jutsu" 100 clones appear and he splits them into groups, 20 working on tree climbing 20 on walking on water, 20 on splitting a leaf 20 on Taijutsu and the last 20 learning some Wind and Water Jutsu's 10 learning Water Jutsu's and 10 on Wind Jutsu's.

Naruto himself goes to get himself some breakfast. He returns 10 minutes later and eats his breakfast before working on the tree climbing himself.
