Namikaze Of Lightning

Chapter 1: Discovery of a heritage

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto, but if I did then Sasuke would've been dead at the Hidden Mist mission. Can't stand the bastard!

"Speaking"

'Thinking'

"Demon/Summon speaking"

'Beast/Demon Thinking'

Pairing: Maybe a harem but I think I'll lean toward Naruto and Samui.

Bloodline: Naruto will be able to do the Hiraishin a little soon but also discovers his affinities to both Raiton and Suiton meaning… you guessed it! Ranton (Storm Release)!

Now that that's out of the way fire it up!

"By order of the council of Konoha, Uzumaki Naruto-san you are hereby banished from Konoha for your crimes." A voice said in the darkened room of where the Council held trials for both Shinobi and citizen alike. All the clan heads sat in their respective seats and the two elders in front. Tsunade was sitting to the side of the elders with a sad expression baring her face. Danzou was missing for some apparent reason.

Naruto Uzumaki. The Jinchuuriki of the Kyuubi no Yoko, the strongest of all Bijuu, was standing in front of the elders with his head down. Who knew that a mission to save Sasuke would go like this? He went out of his way to try and bring Konoha back their precious Uchiha. But that's not what the Kyuubi had planned.

Naruto and Sakura were able to obtain information from one of the Akatsuki, Sasori of the Red Sand, about Sasuke's whereabouts. Tsunade had helped them set up the mission and found two replacements for the team. Sai, a ninja about the same age as Naruto, was assigned on the mission. He seemed very odd to Naruto. Then, the leader of the mission, Yamato, was to replace Kakashi. Naruto thought he had a scary look about him. Didn't help when Yamato would come out of nowhere to try and scare Naruto.

During the fight at the Tenchi Bridge, Naruto activated the Kyuubi's chakra from anger and soon grew four tails. Sakura, not knowing he was not in his right mind, tried to help Naruto but he lashed out at her and hurt her arm. It wasn't a fatal injury but when the council got hold of this incident, they went out against Naruto.

Koharu and Homura glared at the young Jinchuuriki with those stares that they're known for. Homura had always been out for the Kyuubi brat. He was the one who was responsible Naruto didn't get a good education or told the teachers not to do their jobs when it came to him. The civilians helped out since they hated the Kyuubi anyway. Homura smiled secretly as he and Konoha had now been rid of the Kyuubi.

"For attacking your teammate, you have been given the charge of attempted murder." Koharu said.

"But it wasn't my fault! I didn't have control!" Naruto yelled back.

"Then it is your fault! You should have kept your emotions in check!" Homura yelled, glaring at the boy with a cold intent.

The clan heads looked at each other in a worried manner. They were all thinking how they were going to tell their kids when they find out Naruto has left the village. "We do not see the charge to be that of attempted murder." Shikaku said aloud.

The two elders glared at him. "And you have no power in this trial. You are neither parent nor guardian of the boy and no person in the legal council will help him." Homura said to him, a little too confident in his tone. He was actually the one who ordered them to not take his case.

Tsunade had had enough and stood up, slamming her hands on the desk in front of her as she did so. "This trial is a farce! You just want Naruto out of the village because the people complain about him! Even when he doesn't do half the things that they claim!" She then looked at Naruto. He seemed sad, like he was defeated.

"You dare call the civilians of Konoha liars?" Homura yelled back.

Tsunade glared and gritted her teeth at him. "Of course! They've been against him since he was a kid and this is no better! You two are taking this accident way out of context!"

"Of course he can't control the Kyuubi! He's only 15 years old! Having control of the most powerful of the Bijuu would be impossible without years of training, which he only started about two years ago!" Tsunade's chest was heaving up and down.

"His fate is sealed…" A voice said from the shadows. An elderly man with bandages over most of his body and leaned on a walking stick came into view. Tsunade immediately recognized him as Danzou. He held up a scroll and unrolled it. "By the Daimyo's orders, Uzumaki Naruto is to leave the village in exile. He can never return as a Konoha shinobi or citizen." He said trying to hide his own smile. He knew the Kyuubi Jinchuuriki would someday cause him nuisance so he 'persuaded' the Fire Daimyo to banish Naruto from Konoha. Thanks to his Sharingan under his bandaged eye, it was very easy to convince the man.

Tsunade was trembling in anger. She couldn't stand this! Her grandson… was going to have to leave even if it was an accident. 'This… this isn't right.' She sat back down to try and make sure she didn't cry. Her fingers were rolled up into fists and she closed her eyes. None of the other council members or her, the Hokage, could do anything to help Naruto. If the Daimyo's signature was genuine… then Konoha just lost the one thing that brought her there.

"So that's it huh?" Naruto asked the council with an angered expression but his eyes remained blue. "After everything I've done for the village this is what I get?" His chakra began to become visible.

Koharu and Homura gasped, thinking the Kyuubi was trying to break free.

"I've nearly died on multiple occasions for this village! No matter what anyone thinks… this is my home. I've made too strong a bond here to just let it go! I don't care what the Fire Daimyo wrote on some piece of crap paper! I'm not leaving!"

Danzou chuckled at the sight. The boy was actually trying to keep up a tough façade. If anything he knew that he could've made Naruto into a weapon, an obedient one at that. But it was the boys' foolish knowledge that anyone can change. That was not what Danzou thought. If you are a murderer then you are forever. You can never change something like that. Too bad the boy had been a bit of a pain since he became a Genin. First was defeating Gaara during the attack on Konoha during the Chunin Exams. The second was bringing Tsunade back so that she could be Hokage instead of him. He knew that he didn't want to take a chance with a third incident that foiled his plans for Konoha. No matter the cost, Uzumaki Naruto had to go. Even if the old war-hawk knew that it was all an accident.

The clan heads looked at Naruto with a smile on their faces. They respected that he wanted to stay at his home, even if none of the villagers liked him.

Homura, however, wasn't so pleased. His wrinkled face became even more so when his expression became angry. "This is no longer your home you demon!" He yelled and everyone in the room looked at him. Tsunade glared at him with killing intent.

Naruto's head was hung as soon as he heard what he heard throughout his whole life. Demon. He couldn't get past that. He was the prison not the prisoner but apparently that's what that old man thought of him. He clenched his fists and looked at the spectacled old man. "You can kiss my ass for all I care!" Naruto grinned.

XxX

It was the next day when Naruto was done packing. He was sitting on the bed of his room in his apartment. He had found something incredible when he was making sure he didn't forget anything. There was a trap door in the wood floor of his room. Naruto discovered it when he tripped on a piece of the plank that stuck out a couple inches from the others. 'Stupid wood.' He thought as he read the scrolls. There were three in total and a chest with even more scrolls with the same orange swirl that he always wore.

He opened the first one to read its contents.

Dear Naruto,

If you've found the trap door then you must be around 15 or 16 by now. That's when the seal I made to keep it hidden would wear off. I'm sure you've noticed the other two scrolls along with the chest. Well, they are your parents' scrolls.

Naruto's eyes widened when he read that part but he kept reading.

I'm not going to tell you who they are because… what's the fun in that when you can read and find out? I know you loathe reading but I know you won't pass up a chance to find out about them. I was supposed to give you these when you became a Chunin but… I had a bad feeling the day during of the Chunin Exams. So I hid them here unbeknownst to you. I don't know if I'm dead or not but if I am… then I'm sorry for keeping this a secret from you. I also hid a little present in the floorboard under your bed. I'm sure you'll like it. It belonged to your father. I hope you can forgive this old man, Naruto. Be strong and keep the Will of Fire burning.

From,

The Old Man

Naruto's eyes welt up with tears at seeing a late present from the Sandaime. It's too bad that he was about to leave the village. Forgetting the other scrolls for the moment he set down the now read scroll and moved his bed. He carefully moved the floorboards out piece by piece and stacked them. In the small, hidden space was a single seal. 'This is Jiji's present? A seal? How exciting.' Naruto thought with sarcasm aimed at the last part. Then Naruto remembered something about scrolls from Ero-Sennin during the trip.

"I'm supposed to add chakra to it!" Naruto said victorious. He put chakra into his right palm and placed it on the seal. The seal radiated a mixture of both red and yellow and something appeared in front of him. It was a piece of clothing that Naruto thought he saw somewhere. He picked it up while standing and unfolded the white piece of clothing. It looked to be just about Naruto's size. It had red flames that licked at the bottom of the cloak. Naruto put it on and went to his mirror in the bathroom.

'You know… this is oddly familiar. I feel like I've seen it somewhere before.'

Naruto then went back to the other scrolls. He opened the scroll that had a golden color on the outside of the scroll. He opened it and began reading.

To my son, Naruto

Naruto, if I know the old man as well as I do, and that's pretty well if you ask me, then you know nothing of me or your mother. Hopefully, he's told you about your… tenant. Well, enough of that. My name is Minato Namikaze, or you may know me as the Yondaime Hokage.

His mouth agape, Naruto stared at the scroll, dumbfounded. He couldn't believe it! Now he knew where he'd seen that cloak from. It was the Hokage's, or apparently, his father! He felt… happy to know that his hero was his own dad. The blood of the strongest Hokage ran through his. But then… he realized something. His dad was the very one who put the damn demon in him in the first place! He read on hoping to find a reason for his father's act.

I'm sure you're angry at me for giving you the burden of being a Jinchuuriki. But I told Hiruzen to tell the villagers that you were a hero and not a monster. I wanted you to be happy; I still do even though I'm dead. I don't know how your life has been but… I hope you are happy. I'll haunt every villager from the grave if they hurt you!

Naruto laughed at his father's joke.

Be strong my son. I know you will become a great shinobi someday. It'd heartbreak me if you didn't! But I digress; I'm leaving you my cloak so that it can make you look as cool as me! Heheheh, hopefully you didn't get my horrible sense of humor. I'm sorry I couldn't see you grow up. But know that I love you very much, and so does your mother. You'll see her last words next to mine. Oh! Before I forget, I left a chest filled with scrolls containing jutsu from my home village before I came to Konoha. That' Kumogakure by the way. If you're my son you should have an affinity for lightning and maybe water from your mother's side. I was able to also use Ranton (Storm Release). It's a mixture of both chakra elements. Along with that, I'm leaving you the instructions to the technique that made me known as the Yellow Flash. The Hiraishin no Jutsu! It is Jikuukan Ninjutsu at its best! Well almost anyway, I have to use a seal for it. Maybe you can master it without it? That should be it for what I've left you. I hope you're fine Naruto. Your mother and I love you very much.

Your father,

Minato Namikaze

Naruto, without hesitation went to the scroll that he found out to be his moms. The scroll was orange. He opened it and read it quickly.

Dear Naruto,

My name is Kushina Uzumaki and if you are reading this… then your father and I are dead. We wrote these with our chakra before we died. I'm sorry we didn't get to raise you… or watch you grow into a fine man, and maybe shinobi. My dear Naruto… I hope you grew up happy. I'll never forgive Konoha if they harm you for something we put on you! You see, the night of your birth a man tried to kill me. He had an orange mask with a swirl on it. Minato tried to protect me and you but somehow the bastard got past your father and, in my weakened state, released the Kyuubi from my body. Oh, yeah. I forgot to mention that I was the previous Jinchuuriki didn't I? Sorry about that!

Naruto sweat dropped at that. "I wonder if I took after her…" He said to no one in particular.

Due to our clans' ability to long life, I was able to live. Our clan originated from Uzu no Kuni before it was destroyed during the Third Great Shinobi World War. We happened to be masters at Fuinjutsu and were damned good if you asked me! I was the one who taught sealing to your father!

Somehow Naruto could see the image of a woman pumping her fist in the air at her skill and accomplishment. Naruto laughed at that.

Anyway, the Kyuubi began to wreak havoc on Konoha due to the masked man's influence. He possessed the Sharingan. That's probably how he controlled the Bijuu. Your father fought the man off and the man retreated. But the Kyuubi still raged. So… we used a last resort. We used a sealing jutsu called the Dead Demon Consuming Seal to seal it into you. Your father died immediately after he wrote his letter. Using chakra, it didn't take him long. I don't have long either. My eyes feel so heavy… but I don't want to close them. But I'll have to soon. I'm sorry Naruto. Please forgive me! I love you and stay healthy. Meet a girl just like your mother. We leave our Will of Fire… to you.

Your mother,

Kushina Uzumaki

Naruto began to cry at his mothers' last words. He didn't hate them at all. He was happy to know that they loved him. And now, even if he didn't meet them, he loved them as well. For they were his parents. He put the three scrolls away and put them into the chest. He unrolled his own scroll and put the chest on it. Naruto made the ram seal he contained the chest inside the scroll. Something he learned on the trip, since it did come in handy at times. He stood up and made one last check before he left the room with a saddened look.

He made his way down the streets of Konoha. He anticipated the glares but shrugged them off as always. 'You'll be happy to know that I won't be here any longer.' The young Namikaze thought as he saw the village gate. He did notice some gasps from the people. Saying something about him looking just like the Yondaime. He grinned as he kept walking. He guess the cloak's 'cool look power' was already working. He saw people in front of the gate as he stopped just a few feet from them.

The blonde saw Tsunade, Jiraiya, Kakashi, Guy, Sakura, and Teams 8, 10, and Guy looking at him. Most of them had astonished looks on them. Most likely at Naruto's new attire.

Tsunade gasped as she saw her fellow blonde wearing that oh so familiar cloak. "Naruto… where did you get that?" She asked him. She'd wondered if he found out about his parents somehow but she quickly threw the notion away. There was no way he could have. She shook her head chuckling.

"This? I found it in my room. Turns out, I'm the son of someone famous!" Naruto yelled loudly while grinning.

Jiraiya was aghast. He looked like the spitting image of his student. Except for the whisker marks and shorter hair he could have been a carbon copy! The perverted sage looked sadly at Naruto as his friends had gathered around him asking who left him the cloak. He guess that they knew but were confirming it. "He knows…" Jiraiya looked at Tsunade.

"I wonder how he could have found out." She mused.

Jiraiya shrugged. "He certainly lives up to his unpredictable streak." The sage said smiling to her.

After Naruto was done telling them they were all shocked, and yet… happy for Naruto. Hinata and Sakura especially. They felt sorry by the way he was always looked at and without parents.

Naruto went around saying solemn goodbyes to everyone. He hated having to see their saddened faces.

"I guess a spar would be out of the question eh, dobe?" Kiba asked jokingly.

Naruto shook his head sadly. "Not this time Kiba. But if we do meet again you bet your ass that I'll win!" He yelled hitting his chest with his right fist. "Pfft! In your dreams!" Naruto laughed and continued on. He stopped in front of Hinata.

"Umm… N-Naruto-kun? Is s-something w-wrong?" She asked blushing slightly as he looked at her with his blue orbs. Those eyes always made her look away; for fear that she'd become lost in them and faint.

Naruto suddenly hugged her and her face went redder than Jiraiya's cloak. Naruto let go and smiled at the Hyuuga heiress. "I know I never show it to you Hinata but you're a great friend. Always their when I was a kid and crying when the villagers kept calling me demon. You're one of the reasons I didn't hate everyone in the village. Thank you, Hinata." He said scratching his cheek and was blushing a little.

"N-no… it was nothing. You've always been a good friend as well, Naruto-kun." She said at him, successful at not stuttering more than one word in a sentence talking to Naruto. She saw him smile back and she reciprocated with her own. It tore her heart that she'd never see the boisterous blonde or work up the courage to finally tell him her feelings.

Naruto finally finished his near tearing goodbye to Sakura. Both of them were sad but he knew Sakura felt worse. She was now the last original member on Team Seven. "I'm sorry, Sakura-chan." He said to her sadly.

"Baka… it's not your fault." She hugged him and was now staring at Tsunade and Jiraiya. He took off his headband and handed it to Tsunade.

"I'm really sorry about this, Naruto. If only the Council would take out those sticks in their asses." Naruto laughed at Tsunade's statement.

"It's not your fault, Baa-chan. Those old bags were looking for anything to kick me out." Naruto complained. He hugged her for the last time and faced Jiraiya.

"Don't be a stranger, gaki!" Jiraiya said trying to ease the atmosphere but it didn't seem to work. Tsunade hit him on the head.

"Oww!" He grasped his head to try and soothe the pain.

"That's all you have to say? Tell him a real goodbye!" She yelled at him and he sighed.

Naruto laughed at the silver haired pervert and got his attention again.

"Where are you going to go, gaki? Suna?" Jiraiya asked with a raised eyebrow, curious. Naruto shook his head.

"Gaara's probably still recovering from having his demon sucked out of him. So they don't need me bothering them right now." Naruto smiled.

"Then where?"

"Maybe Kumo."

Jiraiya smiled at his pupil. "Your father's homeland eh? Not a bad choice, gaki. You take care of yourself alright?" Jiraiya's expression turned serious.

"Of course! Who do you think you're talking to here?"

"A loud mouthed brat." Jiraiya snickered when his students' eyes went white with anger.

Naruto was about to say something when Tsunade hit Jiraiya again.

"What was that for?" He asked.

"Stop messing around! It's bad enough he's banished!" She yelled with tears in her eyes.

Jiraiya sighed again and put his hand on Naruto's shoulder. He leveled to Naruto's eyes and smiled. "Don't get yourself killed out there. Your mom would've killed me if she found out." Jiraiya laughed.

"Sure thing!" Naruto pumped his left arm at his side.

Now that Naruto was done he exited the gate and looked at everyone. "Thank you all. I'll miss you." He said to them with a sad smile. He saw Hinata crying. He didn't know she cared that much about him. He turned around and headed in the direction of Kumo.

With a shunshin he was gone. Naruto Uzumaki was now gone and the quietness began to settle in quickly for his friends. Sakura started to cry as well. Kakashi put a hand on her shoulder to assure her but she kept crying. Her friend was gone… and she could do nothing to make him come back.

Well that's the first chapter guys! I hope you liked it! I've always wanted to do a pairing between Naruto and Samui so I made this. There may be some… suggestive themes hehehe. Hold up got to clean my nose real fast. Damn blood! Anyway, I'm not the best writer out there but I knew the POV shtick wasn't working out so… maybe this style is better? The next chapter will be up soon, hopefully.
