I don't own Naruto. Damn my rotten luck! TT

My mind got lost on the road of life for a few months and lookie here! I found a story!

I'm just fooling with ya.

Actually, I've been tossing this idea back and forth for a while and I hope it doesn't come out crappy.

I'll stop the chatting and you start the reading! Deal!

We Fight Together

Chapter One

The Fate of Uzumaki Naruto

An elderly man's gaze swept grimly over the battlefeild as dead corpses decorated it. The casulaties were great and the number was rising rapidly. At first the people of his village rejoiced when the Nine Tailed Fox demon, the strongest of the demon lords and king of foxes, Kyuubi no Kitsune, had fallen. Then they found that their Yodaime dead, his lifeless arms holding a screaming babe. The hours old baby boy had a tuff of blonde hair on his head and should he open his young eyes, one would stare into eyes that reflected the calm sky perfectly. But the unusual part was a pair of birthmarks adorning his chubby cheeks.

The old man sighed as he lifted the blanket to stare at the fresh and complicated seal surrounding the baby's navel. He sighed once more at the memory of the hatred that the majority of the village expressed towards this innocent child. Already the boy had two assasination attempts. One was by a recently apointed chuuin while the second was by a villager, both of them blinded by their hatred and pain. And both times prevented by the same person, the teen in front of him.

"Sarutobi-sama," the masked teen addressed the Hokage, his one visible eye churning with shock and anger. "This is unbeleivable! To think that the village hates their savior! Trying to kill him! For Kami-sama's sake, the boy had done nothing wrong but brawl his eyes out and sleep! How could they be so-!"

"Kakashi."

The teen paused from his rambling to listen to his leader.

"Humans' fear can lead to anger while in turn that anger leads to hate, Kakashi. But I do not agree the way they are taking this."

"Hokage-sama! Why don't you just tell them the boy's-"

Once again, the old man cut the teen off.

"That would only make matters worse for word will certainly spread that the vessel is his desendent."

Kakashi only sighed in defeat before saying;

"Right now we should worry about where will the boy stay."

Sarutobi nodded but before he could reply, the son of Konoha's White Fang beat him to the punch.

"I'll adopt him."

"Nani! But Kakashi, be reasonable! You are on active duty! Who will take care of him while your away!"

Kakashi faced the Hokage with determination.

"I'm sure my friends would gladly take care of him and better yet train him when he is able to. I just hope they won't be narrow minded like them." He spat the last word angrily but Sarutobi understood who the teen was refering to.

"I hope so as well, Kakashi."

When Kakashi left, the Sadaime went back to his office and gave a groan at the sight before him; Lots and lots of paperwork. As he sat down, he thought in black humor, shaking a half-hearted fist to the heavens.

Arashi, you died to avoid the paperwork from the damage and you know it!

30 minutes later

Kakashi looked around at the occupents of the room, carrying a bundle.

"Kakashi, this better be good!"

"Maa maa, Anko, please calm down." Although inwardly, he sweatdropped at the odd group off friends he had.

"YOSH! THE FLAMES OF-" (Shame on you if you don't know who this is!) Kakashi promptly shut the 'Green Beast of Konoha' up with a punch in the face. That shocked everyone in the room.

Kakashi never EVER had lost his cool! Well, not that they heard of. The teen merely glared and revealed what the 'bundle' was.

A baby.

A cute baby.

A cute, SLEEPING baby.

Oh.

"Does this have to do with that runt?" This came from a young man who was lighting a cigarette.

"Hai, I am adopting him and please don't smoke here Asuma."

"Adopting?" an older man with several facial scars.

"Yes, Ibiki. I said adopting."

"And why are we here?" A girl around Kakashi's age with red eyes gestured to people there.

"Well Kurunai, I was hoping you guys could train him when he's old enough and take care of him when I'm away on missions."

"You mean baby-sit?" Anko said with a hint anger that she was asked to do something genin's missions normally were.

"Ano sa, you do know that the rest of the village well, hate him so they're out and I trust you guys."

"Yosh! My eternal rival, I,-"

"Ssshh!" Hissed Kakashi.

"Fine."

"Sure."

"Whatever."

"Hn."

Kakashi smiled for the very first time on that day, which was shown by his right eye like an upside down U.

"Thanks guys."

He turned around, intent on caring for the baby in his arms. Just as he reached out to grab the doorknob and leave the room, the voice of Kurunai stopped him with a question.

"Kakashi, does the gaki have a name?"

The silver haired teen replied without turning to face them and left the room without further interruption. This was his reply;

"His name is Uzumaki Naruto."

So, you hate it? Love it? Hate me? Okay, I'll stop right there.

For when they agreed, the order is as so;

Gai (Then Kakashi went "Ssshh!"), Asuma, Kurunai, Anko and then Ibiki.

Gaki means kid or child. I prefer kid.

And don't ya think they're a weird group?

Anywho...Without further ado,
