Chapter 1

Avatar Roku watched silently as Aang practiced is earth bending with the newest addition to the group, a blind earth bending named Toph. The group was heading to Ba Sang Se to talk with the earth king. Aang was planning to fight the fire lord without learning fire bending. He knew that Aang swore to never use fire bending again after hurting katara but without it he could not defeat the fire lord. But the more troubling issue was that there was no one who could teach the young avatar the art. He paused at that. There was one…a master of fire bending that was greater then any avatar. Now that he thought of it he had taught many avatars the cunning art of fire bending. Also he would help Aang and his group in many was then just fire bending. Even thought Aang was the avatar he was still a 13 year old boy that had saving the world on his shoulders. No, avatar Roku thought as he faded to the spirit world, he would help in many other ways.

"Why hello Avatar Roku" a certain blond fox lord sitting on a spirit of a tree while watching young kits play.

"I could never sneak on you could I Kyuubi-sama" said Roku appearing behind him.

"Guess that comes from being a shinobi and would did I tell you about that stupid title?"

"Of course Naruto-sama, I beg for your forgiveness" He replied with a smirk.

"Smart ass…so what do I owe this visit" Said Naruto turning to face him now.

"I have come to ask you a favor naruto". Naruto raised an eyebrow.

After hearing Roku's story a silence fell between them as naruto weighted he's choices. This aang had to save the world while he was only a kid. Naruto not for the first time wondered if life just likes to screw with people. And what scared him the most was that this story sounded a lot like his when he was a kid. He sighed. He never forget the feeling of being on his own when he was a kid. What he would have done for just a little help. He wouldn't save the world for this kid but he would offer a helping hand. He turned a glare to Roku who was already smiling.

"So…you're help him" He asked while still smiling.

"Yeah, yeah I'll help the kid" He paused as if just got an idea.

"…what?" Roku asked slowly if not a little afraid. It wasn't a secret that naruto was a little…crazy in his plans. They worked but they were slightly insane.

"I'll help the kid…after I have a little chat with the fire lord." A cold sweat went down his forehead. Being a fire nation native himself he knew the stories of Kyuubi and how he was worshiped as the god of fire. He almost forget how powerful naruto was considering how he acts.

"Just…just don't give him a heart attack…okay?" A smirk was he's only reply.
