Hello, the name's Chris. This fanfic would be my second since my first got erased, but will rewrite my first. Anyway, this is a Naruto/Sakura fanfic but you know, as a writer, the story would write itself and it may not be a Naru/Saku fanfic so just read the fanfic and see what happens.
Anyway, the timeline for this fanfic occurs within the series and will separate later on since I don't know the ending of Naruto, but do have a guess though. The events in the series will happen, I may put in some action scenes, just warning you that I'm not that good in writing action scenes, but I'm also not bad either so at least you all are warned.
Okay, so… oh, right the copyrighted crap thing. I don't own the series, Kishimoto guy whatever or whoever created Naruto owns the rights to it, as well as Tokyo TV whatever. And even if you sue me owners, ha!!! Jokes on you because I gots no money.
:: Psst, me with the whole library job, lets keep that to ourselves, okay? Okay ::
Okay, now that we got that settle, just sit back, relax, and enjoy the reading. Oh, and one more thing. Read and review here folks please, and also go easy on me. My first/second attempt at fanfic and hopefully with your guideness and reviews, I would get better at writing… that and going to school so please don't flame me that bad… please?
Redemption
Prologue
"YOU'RE LATE YOU IDIOT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
After being clobbered for being late, Naruto rubs the gigantic bump on his head courtesy of an angry Sakura.
"Ah, Sakura-chan you didn't have to hit that hard, you know? I was only late because I had to…"
"No excuses!!!!!! You're even worse than Kakashi-sensei!!!!!!!!!! Why can't you be more like Sasuke-kun you baka!!!!!!!!!" screamed Sakura as she walks away from Naruto.
Smiling, Naruto only respond was a whisper, "Sorry… Sakura-chan…"
Team 7, which consists of three genin and a jounin. The three genin are Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura, and Uzumaki Naruto. Their jounin teacher is an ex-ANBU Hatake Kakashi.
Upon their first team meeting, the three genins were ordered by their jounin teacher for a survival training the next day. Upon passing it, they were given missions for the genin to do. It wasn't long before they were given a mission that changed their lives forever.
During a normal c-rank mission, they were confronted by an S-Rank Missing-nin named Momoichi Zabuza. It was during that first battle that the genins witnessed the power of a jounin and what it really means to be a ninja.
After the whole protection mission was over and Zabuza was put to rest, team 7 returns home to Konoha, for another round of missions.
Currently, Kakashi told his subordinates to meet him at the bridge in the morning for their upcoming mission. Upon being rejected of offering to walk Sakura home, Naruto ventures onto the streets, smiling his smile, and ignoring the stares that he learned to adapt upon growing up.
When he got home, all Naruto did was training, training, eating ramen, scratching his head confusedly at his self-teach scrolls, eating ramen, cloning around, eating ramen, trying out new battle cries, and sleep. All this effort to become Hokage of Konoha… and being accepted by Sakura.
But with all that training, it was no surprise that Naruto woke late. Screaming, Naruto changed, ran out of his building for a good few miles, returning back to get his froggy-kun wallet, ran out again, helped a little girl find her lost cat, and making it to the bridge for a good old punch by his crush.
As team 7 continues to wait, Naruto groans impatiently. "Argh!!! When will Kakashi-sensei arrive?!"
"Shut up dobe, you're getting more annoying as usual," mutters Sasuke as Naruto's eyes burned with fire and rage.
"WHAT DID YOU SAY SASUKE-TEME?!?!?!?!" screams Naruto and ran up to Sasuke's face.
"God, why are you such a dobe?" mutters an irritated Sasuke as Naruto grits his teeth in anger.
"That does it!!!" and swung his punch but stopped when he heard Sakura screaming.
"Naruto you baka!!!! Stop bothering Sasuke-kun with your nonsense!!!"
"But Sakura-chan, Sasuke-teme started it" whined Naruto as he pulled down his punch.
"Hmph, a girl is what it takes to stop you? Then you really don't deserve to be a ninja dobe" smirked Sasuke.
"Why you…" grits Naruto but was pushed by Sakura.
"Listen, Naruto!! I'm getting sick and tire of you always ruining the peaceful moments!! Always annoying us with your annoying rants, annoying us with your remarks of being the best, and always bothering Sasuke-kun!!! Why can't you just grow up already you damn baka!!!" screamed Sakura as she looks at Sasuke with love filled eyes.
"Right, Sasuke-kun?" pleaded a sweat loving Sakura, to which she got responded with, "Hmph, whatever. You're just as annoying as that dobe"
"Hey, Sakura-chan is not annoying!! If anything, you are the annoying one you…"
"NARUTO!!!!!!!!! SHUT UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" yelled Sakura as she punched Naruto.
Yep, just another normal day for team 7.
Reminisce
Uzumaki Naruto, age 12, blonde hair, blue eyes, and an orange jumpsuit. His rank: genin, affiliation: team 7. Grew up an orphan and never knew his family. Oh, and is the container of the Kyuubi, the nine tailed fox demon.
Growing up, Naruto was hated by the adults who only see him as the fox demon. His only hope were the children his age that would be friends with him but sadly, kids do tend to copy what their parents do and the hate went from parents to children… only to some.
You see, 12 years prior to Naruto's birth, the Kyuubi appeared and ravished Konoha. Only the Fourth Hokage, at the time, was the strongest one that could face the fox demon.
In the history books, it was stated that the Fourth Hokage defeated the demon fox and died in the attempt. What was kept secret was that the Fourth Hokage died because he used the Death Seal Jutsu to seal the demon fox onto a new born baby, which was Naruto… at the cost of the user's soul.
And so the Third retired Hokage became Hokage again and enforce a law that states that no one mentions of the demon fox to anyone, what happened in Konoha that fateful night, stays in Konoha on that fateful night.
The secret they kept but not the actions. The people sees baby Naruto as a threat or rather the Kyuubi himself and hated Naruto, even during his growing years.
It was until graduation day when a teacher tricked Naruto onto stealing a forbidden scroll that he found out that he was demon fox himself.
After the whole ordeal was over, only three good things came from that experience. The mastery of the Kage-Bushin no jutsu, graduated into a genin, and made a friend, namely a teacher named Iruka.
Next day, he was put onto a team, where he became comrades with Haruno Sakura and Uchiha Sasuke. The team would be under the tutelage of a jounin named Hataka Kakashi.
The levels of being a ninja is simple.
Students- are kids going to school to learn to be a ninja
Genin- the first level of a ninja
Chuunin- the second level of a ninja
Jounin- third level
ANBU- special Jounin level that takes special missions
Sanin- level of ninja who are a candidate of being hokage
Hokage- master of all jutsus and knowledge, leader of the village
To prove their worth, Kakashi made them undergo a survival test which in the end, they learn the value of teamwork. Later on, they took upon missions, including one that turned into an A-Rank mission and still accomplished it.
It was during this A-Rank that Naruto tapped into his Kyuubi powers but it was only for a short amount of time and the only ones who knew of this was Naruto and Kakashi, as well as Zabuza and his teammate Haku, both who knew nothing about the Kyuubi.
Naruto grew a crush on Haruno Sakura a long time ago. When it started, even Naruto forgot but he will never forget the feelings he gets when seeing Sakura. But sadly, Sakura only got eyes for Sasuke who wants nothing to do with her.
Haruno Sakura, age 12, pink hair, green eyes and a red dress. Her rank: genin, affiliation: team 7. Not much is known about her, other than her crush on Sasuke, her hatred with Naruto, and an Inner Sakura that lives within her mind that reveals her true self.
Uchiha Sasuke, age 12, raven hair, black eyes and a blue shirt with white khaki-type shorts. He is the last of the Uchiha clan, who got wiped out by Uchiha Itachi, Sasuke's brother. Letting Sasuke live because he was too weak to kill, Sasuke grew up with hatred for his brother and intends to kill him at any means necessary.
The Uchiha clan has a bloodline trait of their own called the Sharingan. It is a trait in which, once activated, the user could copy jutsus of other users and use it for themselves. It could also be use to copy movements.
Hatake Kakashi, age unknown, white/gray hair, black eyes and a green vest with dark blue shirt/pants. He is known as Copy Eye Kakashi. He was part of the original team 7 under the tutelage of the Fourth Hokage, who was a simple jounin at the time. His teammates at the time were Uchiha Obito and Rin. He lost his eye during a mission to rescue Rin when she was kidnapped and upon being saved by Obito, he watched helplessly as a humungous boulder crushed Obito.
As his final wish, Obito asked Rin to give his remaining Sharingan eye to Kakashi to replace his lost eye. Upon the quick operation, Obito rested in peace as Kakashi received the Sharingan, which helps him to become later on as Copy Eye Kakashi. Kakashi learned so much from that fateful mission and changed him greatly into the great man he is today.
The Man in the Woods
It was just another day in Konoha as team 7 was following their jounin instructor Kakashi on their training.
"Hey, Kakashi-sensei. When do we actually do the fun stuff like we did in the Wave Country?" whined Naruto as Kakashi only response was a giggle from reading his perverted book, Come Come Paradise.
"Hey, Kakashi-sensei!!!" screams Naruto to which he noticed something move within the bushes.
"WATCH OUT!!!!!!!" screamed Naruto while throwing a kunai knife towards the bushes.
Team 7 watched as the culprit that made moved the bushes came forth…
"AHHH!!!!! I'M SOOOO SORRY!!!!! I'M SOOO SORRY RABBIT-KUN!!!!!!" cried Naruto. He ran towards the scared bunny and hugs him.
"Um, Kakashi-sensei, isn't that the same rabbit that Naruto almost killed in the Wave Country?" asks Sakura to which she got responded with, "Hohoho"
"Now that we have arrived on our destination, the training begins" said Kakashi as upon closing his book, he turned around to face his students in the open grass field.
"Hey, hey, what is the training Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto asks.
"Why search and retrieve of course" smiled Kakashi through his mask. Team 7 groans at another boring assignment.
"Search and retrieve? But that is not a good method of training Kakashi-sensei" whined Sakura as Naruto aggress.
"Why it is a good method of training. Now, somewhere in this plains are flowers called Hikari that only grows in this type of season. You all are to retrieve three Hikari flowers and bring it back here"
"But Kakashi-sensei, how would that help me achieve to becoming hokage?" whined Naruto.
"Naruto, you got a long way to go until you achieve hokage. So all of you start" then Kakashi laid down on the ground, open his book and began to read.
When team 7 was within a mile away, Kakashi said, "Oh, and another thing"
Poof! Poof! Poof!
"You cannot be captured at all," said Kakashi, as dog-nins appeared, snarling at team 7.
Understanding the method now, team 7 disperses into the field as the dog-nins chased after them.
'I hope they can understand that teamwork plays a big part of this' thought Kakashi as he giggles at his book.
"ARGH!!! Where could that stupid flower be? Stupid Kakashi-sensei" whines Naruto as he stopped running, seeing a Kakashi clone standing right in front of him.
"(Sighs) Still have a lot to learn about stealth Naruto," mutters the Kakashi clone. Taking out a kunai, Kakashi clone dash straight towards Naruto.
"Heh" smirked Naruto. Dodging the strike, Naruto yelled, "Kage Bushin no jutsu!!!!"
Five clones came out as they ran straight towards the Kakashi clone. Kakashi clone watch as some clones threw punches and kicks into the air.
"Kage Bushin no jutsu rendan!!!"
Grabbing each other, the clones threw each other into the air, leaving only two behind as the clones threw kunai at the mid air Kakashi clone. The two below underwent their plan.
One put their hands together as the other jump onto the hands and into the air, with a fist ready. As the punch was delivered, the Kakashi clone poof.
"Aha!!! All right!!! We did it!!!!" cheered the Naruto clones.
'Hmm, not bad. Although the rendan was somehow flawed, he still pulled it off, and I think even Naruto knows it too. I wonder what the rendan would be if Naruto fixed this flawed in his current rendan. Nevertheless, nice going Naruto' thought a Kakashi clone who was hidden in the trees. With a smile, the Kakashi clone left to find the others.
As the clones' poof, Naruto venture on to find the Hikari flower. Of course, now realizing that his earlier approach, running within the fields, was a bad idea. He decided to find the flower while hiding from view.
An hour went by and still no Hikari flower. Although it was by luck that no Kakashi clone came by, Naruto still can't help but feel bored out of his mind to find the stupid flower.
"I'm bored out of my mind to find this stupid flower!!!"
Hearing a feint sound of people cries, Naruto looks around to see nothing but the endless trees and bushes.
"Huh? What was that?" whispered Naruto.
Suddenly, everything around him started to blur. Naruto began to run but soon he found himself in a dark world with flames covering the forests. The sky was bloody red and dead bodies covered the entire field.
"What the… where am I?!" screamed Naruto.
The ground suddenly shook with gigantic footsteps. Looking up, Naruto's eyes widen as he sees…
"IT'S HIM!!!!! IT'S THE DEMON!!!!!!!!!! GET HIM!!!!!!!!!!!!!" yelled men in armor as they aimed their swords towards the demon.
Armored men came running through the forests, charging towards the gigantic demon in front of Naruto.
Naruto didn't know what to do but to run out of the way. But sadly, he tripped on the cracked ground as Naruto covers his head… only to feel nothing.
Opening his eyes, Naruto could see the armored men running through him like he was not even there.
Slowly standing up, Naruto could see these armored men ran through him towards the demon behind him.
"FOOLISH HUMANS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!" roared the demon as he breathed fire onto them.
Naruto helplessly watch as the armored men was being burned and melted by their own armor from the fire the demon breathed on them.
Hearing footsteps, Naruto looks back to see a blonde messy hair armor knight, carrying a gigantic sword twice his size.
"Arashi-kun!!! You can't!!! You can't fight the kyuubi in your state!!!!" cried a white hair woman as the blonde haired knight named Arashi glared at the demon.
"Mimiko-chan, this is my destiny. The kyuubi wants only me and I shall grant his wish. I will put an end to this battle once and for all" said Arashi with an angry voice.
"But Arashi-kun…"
"Mimiko-chan, I don't regret ever meeting you… please… stay back… go back to the village where its safe" and with that, Arashi charged towards the kyuubi.
'He looks… he looks just like… the Fourth Hokage' thought Naruto as he sees Arashi jumped into the air, swinging his sword towards the growling kyuubi.
Hearing rustling noises, Naruto could see the entire scene starting to blur as it went back into the forest that he was in before.
Looking back, he sees a man around his 40's. With a beard and a hat, he notices Naruto looking at him.
"So… after all those failed attempts, only you could see the past, huh?" mutters the old man but Naruto still heard it.
"The past? What are you talking about old man? And what were those armored men? I never seen anything like it before?" questioned Naruto.
"Hmph, so even the foreseer doesn't know the hidden past…"
"Hidden past? What are you talking about?" questions Naruto again as the old man turns around to walk away.
"Hey, hey!"
"Listen, kid. Don't tell anyone of what you just saw. Only those who witness it can they truly understand" said the old man.
"Who are you?" asks Naruto to which stopped the old man from walking.
About a couple of seconds, the old man reply, "I'm just a man in the woods" then continued on his walk.
"Don't worry kid, we'll meet again"
Naruto watched the old man disappeared from view. 'What was he talking about? The hidden past? Those armored men? And was that really the Fourth Hokage? And what was it about me being the forseer?'
With all this unanswered questions, it wasn't until dawn that Naruto remembered about the mission.
Sadly, he found no Hikari flower and when he returned to the open field where Kakashi waited, he sees Sasuke and Sakura with the Hikari flowers.
"WHAT TOOK YOU SO LONG YOU BAKA?!?!?!?! WE WAITED FOR SO LONG FOR YOU TO RETURN!!!" screamed Sakura as she gave him a good punch.
"Ah, but Sakura-chan…"
"Hmph, don't waste time like this again dobe" muttered Sasuke as Naruto can feel the flames of anger rising within him.
"What you said Sasuke-teme?!?!?!" screamed Naruto.
"Naruto, shut up!!!!!!!" and delivered another punch to Naruto.
"Sakura-chan… that hurts…" whined Naruto.
"Alright, everyone. Lets head home" mumbles Kakashi as he led his team to Konoha while reading his perverted book.
The Exams
Days went by, and team 7 went to do more d-rank missions. For Naruto, this was a good opportunity to show off his skills on being better than Sasuke.
First mission…
The first mission of the day was to pick up grass weeds from the ground in the customer's garden.
Seeing Sasuke picking up the grass weeds, Naruto pulled up his sleeves, saying, "Alright, I won't lose to Sasuke"
Picking up the grass weeds in a fast pace, Naruto manages to pull out almost everything within his range but…
"Hey, you…" said the old lady customer.
"Hey, old lady. I got all the weeds," said Naruto proudly, "Huh? What's wrong?"
"Those weren't weeds… those were herbs I was growing in my garden!!" yelled the old lady.
"Ouch!!!!!!!!" was the only thing Konoha could hear in the morning.
Next mission…
With a black eye, Naruto was picking up garbage in a river along with Sasuke and Sakura while Kakashi continues reading his perverted book.
Looking around for more garbage, Naruto suddenly trips and fell into the river. While trying to get out of the river, the river proved to be too strong for the little ninja as he screams, falling into a waterfall.
But he suddenly stopped within the waterfall. Looking up, he sees Sasuke grabbing his ankle while holding onto a rope with the other.
"You moron" was the only thing Sasuke said that anger Naruto.
Another mission…
"Hey, stop," whined Naruto, as the current mission for team 7 was to walk the dogs. But to prove his worth, Naruto chose the big dog, which was too strong for Naruto to tame.
"Please!" pleaded Naruto as the big dog was walking towards the trap field.
"That idiot" mutters Sasuke while Sakura said, "Why did he choose that big dog instead of the little ones like we did?"
"Wait!" pleaded Naruto again as the big dog walked towards an opening in the fence towards the trap field.
And Kakashi, sitting on top of a tree branch, happily reading his perverted book.
"That's the trap field," said Naruto as he screams, the trap field exploding all around him.
In the end, a smoke covered Naruto was sitting on the ground with the big dog over his legs. All Naruto did was sigh, with smoke coming out from it.
Upon reaching back to Konoha, Sakura and Sasuke was helping Naruto walk with each arm around their necks.
"It's because you push yourself too hard," said Sakura to the tired Naruto.
"Hmph, can't you even take care of yourself?" smirked Sasuke.
Standing up, Naruto glares at Sasuke and prepared to attack but Sakura extended her arm in front of him, stopping him with a glare.
"If you don't calm down, I'll finish you" angrily said Sakura.
"Hmm, teamwork seems to be suffering lately," said Kakashi in his usual bored voice.
"Yeah, you're the one ruining our teamwork, Sasuke. Always hogging the spotlight" said Naruto, shaking his fist at the retreating Sasuke.
"That's you dobe. If you want me to stop making you look bad, then just become stronger than me" said Sasuke who looked back at Naruto for that final words.
Tension was building up as both Naruto and Sasuke glared at each other. Sakura was worried about what could happen next.
'They're somehow worse than before' thought the worried Sakura.
Remembering their mission in the Wave Country, Sasuke grits his teeth. 'Damn it, there are tons of guys stronger than me out there, yet I have to do these stupid missions'
Hearing a bird crowing, Kakashi looks up, saying, "Well then…"
Looking back onto his students, Kakashi said, "… how about calling it a day? I have to go submit this mission report"
"Then I'm going home," said Sasuke as he walked away.
"Hey, Sasuke-kun, wait" running towards to Sasuke, Sakura asks blushingly, "Hey, about right now… we work on our teamwork, just the two of us"
"You're the same as Naruto. If you have time to bother me, practice a jutsu or two. Frankly, your ability is lower than Naruto's" was Sasuke's answer as he walks away.
"He's right… in every mission, I do the least…' thought the distress Sakura.
"Sakura-chan! Forget Sasuke! Let's train together!" suggested the grinning Naruto, not noticing the anger nor the teeth gritting of Sakura… which was why Kakashi poof away.
'Sensei left? So I could be alone with her?' thought the happy Naruto, noticing some movement behind him.
"Hm?" then looking back, he sees a bad disguise box … 'That's suppose to be a rock?'
Walking away, Naruto sees the box following him as he began to run. Running back and forth multiple times until he stopped, and pointed at the box, yelling, "What kind of rock is square with two holes? I can see right through that"
"Heh, heh. Now that's what I expect from the one I admire," said a voice from within the badly disguised box as a rock as it exploded.
As the smoke clear, three little kids were on their knees coughing. "Argh, you put too much Udon" Realizing they were being watched, they jump into action.
"With the sexiness of an adult, I am female ninja Moegi," cheered the girl.
"I love assembling models, I am Udon" cheered the nose dripping boy.
"The village's number one genius ninja, Konohamaru" yelled the grandson of the Third Hokage.
"With the three of us, we are the Konohamaru Corp.!!!" cheered the three children.
"Thought it was you Konohamaru" mutters Naruto. Noticing what they were hearing on their foreheads, he asks, "Huh? What's with the goggles?"
"Heh-heh-heh-heh, we're copying the old you" grins Konohamaru.
"Ah…"
"What do you mean ah?" ponders Konohamaru. "Hey, you're colder lately"
"So… what do you want?" asks Naruto.
"See? He's cool" whisper Konohamaru to Udon.
"Umm, leader are you free?" asks the happy Moegi.
"Nope… I'm training," grins Naruto.
"What? But you said you'd play ninja with us" pouted Konohamaru.
"Oh, did I…" chuckles Naruto before thinking, 'If I play with them, it'll take all day'
"Why would a ninja play ninja?" mutters the distraught Sakura as she continues walking her zombie like way home.
Stopping suddenly, Sakura looks at Naruto in a zombie type state.
"Wha… what is it?" asks the nervous Naruto.
'I'm below him?' thought Sakura.
'She's making me nervous, looking at me like that' Naruto thought.
"Hey, bro who is this girl?" asks Konohamaru as he looks at the zombie Sakura.
'She staring at bro like she wants to eat him alive' thought Konohamaru as he figured it out. "Ha!"
Side glancing at Naruto, Konohamaru grins, saying, "Not bad bro"
"Huh?"
"She's your… girlfriend," grins the grandson of the Third.
Snapping out of her state, Sakura notices the scene unfolding and she did not like it one bit.
"Wow, for little kids, you sure are perceptive," laughs Naruto, which Sakura added in with, "Wrong you baka!!!" and a punch to the face that sends him to a fence.
"BRO!" glaring at Sakura, "How dare you do that to bro!" while Moegi and Udon ran towards Naruto.
"No leader…" cried Moegi. "His pulse… his pulse is…" stated Udon.
"You ugly witch!!!" yelled Konohamaru as Sakura cracked her knuckles.
Noticing how angry Sakura is, Konohamaru began to get scared as Konoha heard another scream that day.
Sakura walks away, leaving behind Naruto and Konohamaru with triple bumps on their heads.
"Konohamaru-kun, are you all right?" asks Udon.
"Oww, oww, oww…" muttered the two victims as they stood up.
"Damn it, with that ugly huge forehead… is that really a girl bro?" asks Konohamaru to Naruto.
The K-Corps and Naruto suddenly noticed that Sakura halted her walk. Mechanically, Sakura looks back with a sinister look that scared both the K-Corps and Naruto.
Suddenly dashing towards them, Sakura was prepared to give them the punishment they deserve while the K-Corps and Naruto ran for their lives.
Konohamaru bumped into another person in the street as the K-Corps, Naruto, and even Sakura stopped to look at this new person, this new person with a puppet on his back and a blonde hair woman next to him.
"That hurts…" said the puppet man.
"Konohamaru!" said Naruto as the puppet man was holding Konohamaru up by his shirt.
"That hurt you little piece of shit," said the puppet man.
"Don't, we'll get yelled at later" the blonde hair woman said, trying to save themselves from trouble later on from their master.
"Please forgive us, we were all just playing around…" said the worried Sakura, trying to get Konohamaru out of danger.
'Who are these people?' thought the worried Sakura as Naruto yelled, "Hey you! Let go of him!"
Seeing the symbol on Naruto's headband, the puppet man chuckles, thinking, 'Looks like leaf genin'
"Let's play a little before the boss comes," grins the puppet man, lifting Konohamaru higher.
Konohamaru grunts as he started to kick him but to no avail. "Little brat" grits puppet man.
Not taking it anymore, Naruto ran towards puppet man, yelling, "You bastard!"
Puppet man moved the fingers of the hand behind his back as Naruto tripped.
"What was that?" wonders Naruto surprised as puppet man grins at him.
"Leaf genins are so weak"
'These guys are foreign. Why are they here?' thought Sakura.
"Konohamaru" mutters Naruto. "Konohamaru-chan!" cries Moegi. "Konohamaru-kun!" yelled Udon.
"Let go of me…" pleaded Konohamaru.
Getting back up, Naruto yelled, "Hey, if you don't let him go, I'll make you pay!!"
Grabbing Naruto in a headlock, Sakura whispers, "You idiot, what are you thinking?"
"Hmm, you're annoying… basically, I hate midgets. Especially younger ones that are rude. Makes me want to break them," grins puppet man.
"Oh well. I'm not involve," sighs the blonde woman.
'What's with this guy? This is bad…' thought Sakura.
"Well, after this one, I'll take care of that loud midget over there" grins puppet as he pulls his arm back.
"Why you!!!" yelled Naruto, running towards puppet man again.
Suddenly, Konohamaru was let go. Puppet man's hand got damage somehow. And it was by a little rock.
Looking up, puppet man sees Sasuke sitting on a tree branch with another little rock in his hand.
"What are you bastards doing in our village?" asks Sasuke.
"Sasuke-kun!" cheered Sakura.
'He's kind of cute' thought puppet man's companion.
"Bro!" Konohamaru then ran towards Naruto.
"Damn, another annoying brat…" mutters puppet man.
Squeezing the little rock in his hand into it became dust, Sasuke said, "Get lost"
"So cool!" cheered both Sakura and Moegi.
"Naruto bro, you suck," cried Konohamaru.
"No dummy, I could have easily defeated that guy" pleaded Naruto as Konohamaru looks away.
'Damn you Sasuke! Why are you always making me look bad?' thought the angry Naruto.
"Hey, punk. Get down here. I hate show-off brats like you the most," said puppet man as he was prepared to use the puppet on his back.
"Hey, you're going to use Karasu?" asks the blonde woman. Placing the puppet in front of him, puppet man glares at Sasuke ready to strike.
Looking down at the scene, the red hair youth said, "Kankuro, stop it"
Startled, Sasuke looks behind the trunk to see a red hair youth standing upside from a tree branch. And what really shook him was that he didn't know he was there until now.
"You're an embarrassment to our village," mutters the red haired youth.
"Ga… Gaara" said puppet man nervously now known as Kankuro.
'Him… when did he…that's Kakashi-sensei's level of stealth. How long has he been there?' wonders Sasuke about the red haired youth.
To be continue…
Author's note: Yeah, most of you may have notice the nostalgic of this scene. This chapter has little of my originality and I apologize. And sorry for ending this chapter like that but I just want to continue with my originality so I decided to end this chapter that like.
I plan on fusing both my story and the anime series as one. Oh, and don't worry, I won't right the entire anime series in this fanfic. I plan on scripting some of the important stuff from the series in this fanfic, but it won't be as long as the scene above.
This story would expand onto the Hurricane Chronicles series, or Naruto 2 as many of you have labeled it. This is just a test to see what I can do in fanfictions and hopefully all of you will stick to this story to the end.
I only plan on scripted two mayor fights from the series in this fanfic, or rather shorten it a bit. Other than that, my originality will take over from here on out. I hope to finish with the plot before the three-year mission and start with the heavy romance later on, although I won't make any promises.
Oh, and about the Kage Bunshin no jutsu rendan. I just wanted Naruto to have some moves before the Chuunin Exams starts. Anyway, Kakashi did say it was flawed and wonders how it would look like when Naruto fixes it. And all know how that would look, the Uzumaki Naruto Rendan.
This is still a working progress so please be patient for chapter two where the originality will take over. So until next time, later yosh!
Oh, and please read and review. And don't flame me to hard please, I'm just starting out.
Preview of next chapterIts all over Konoha about the upcoming Chuunin Exams and ninjas from around the nations have gather to Konoha to participate. Can Naruto survive the dangers and peril to become a chuunin? Can he pass the first test, a paper exam?
And what about the vision he had in forest? Was that really the Fourth Hokage in an armor? And what about that man in the woods?
Naruto sighs sadly as Sakura walks away from him after rejecting him. Naruto grins though, if he lived his entire life through the hardships the village caused him because of the kyuubi sealed inside of him, he sure could handle a little heartbreak.
Turning around, Naruto started to loose his balance as he fell onto the ground. Shaking his head, he suddenly finds himself not in Konoha anymore.
The place around him was burning with flames and armored knights were fighting off demons.
Hearing footsteps stopping in front of him, Naruto looks up to have his eyes widen in shock.
"Who are you? What is a kid like you doing here?" wonders Arashi as Naruto realize that Arashi could actually see him.
'So he starting to develop… the containment is making his move without knowing. Interesting' thought the old man from the woods…
