I knew who I was when I was born. Actually reborn, however that isn't the point. I could almost immediately tell by the giant orange blob with nine smaller connected blobs(It was a blob because I was a newborn and could not see well.) I mean come on, who else as a newborn had a giant nine tailed fox right in front of them. So anyway I don't remember a lot from back then, only the terror of seeing the nine tails.
I remember when I turned 3 is when I was kicked out of the orphanage. Gramps told me he would buy me an apartment, which is where I live now. I asked Gramps to teach me so I could defend myself in this apartment if someone tried anything, but he didn't want to because I was too young. Which is why I am now in the process of walking up a tree. I remember from the show that Naru-I mean I used too much chakra, so I was trying to regulate it before taking any steps. "Still too much? Damn I don't know why I thought it was a good idea to do this without doing anything else to test my chakra." I said in exasperation. I sighed and tried again lowering how much I used again. I was about halfway up when i felt my control slipping again. Good, I was getting closer to the top. Too bad I didn't have any kunai to mark where I was exactly on the tree. I didn't have time to think about it because I wanted to do something with the chakra control I get if I complete this exercise. I sigh and begin walking again.
2 Days Later
I had finally finished the tree walking exercise and was moving on to the next level of chakra control practice I remember from the show. I needed some materials first, which would require I leave my house. However today was October 10th. I made a promise never to leave my houshouse on my birthday as I do recall the beating I took that day. However because of my training, I was already outside of my house. I saw someone approaching me already so I decided to start running towards my house, big mistake. They were already there, waiting with pitchforks and torches. I had to do something, so I pushed chakra to my feet and the ground beneath me exploded and I had a boost in speed because of that. I rushed towards the hokage office and when I arrived, I jumped on the wall and ran until I made it to the window and jumped in. "What the hell, Naruto?!" Gramps asked.
"They're chasing me again." I said sadly. He looked confused and voiced said confusion. "Don't tell me you forgot Gramps?" I said. In my head I knew he had, just like last year. When I looked up at him he had a look of regret. He had remembered now. I decided to ask for a present. "Hey Gramps, I am working on something and I need some water balloons and a couple rubber balls as well."
"Why do you need that?" He asked.
"I have a plan for a ball pit and I want to use water balloons for a prank so that when they jump in the balloons pop." I lied. Yeah, I know. Bad idea to lie to the hokage, however it worked. He agreed and took me for those supplies. 'Yes! I can finally do the rasengan now!'
I hope you enjoyed the first chapter. It was more narrative than I had planned, but I like it. More action and also more insight on Naruto's life in the next chapter. Signed, ConnerOC
