Hello everyone! Everyone's favorite Captain here, coming at you with a new project! Now, I'm an ideas man. I suffer from what's known as an over active imagination, and thus I tend to have a lot of cool ideas build up. Now I myself could never turn all the awesome ideas I've got swimming around in the old noodle into stories because if I did I'd NEVER get done with the ones I've already got. That where you guys come in! I'll write a chapter for this project, of varying length, and leave it for you to turn into a great story! You may copy the chapter if you're unsure of how to start out, and feel free to PM me if you want my input on how things could go or just want to brainstorm ideas.
It was a quiet night in Konohagakure. The wind was blowing peacefully while the leaves would dance in the cooling breeze as they fell off the trees. However in the darkness of the forest a lone boy sat on the grass in front of an old shack.
"Ok what's the first jutsu in this scroll? Shadow Clones? Oh man! Clones are my worst technique!" Said a certain blond haired boy who was wearing a black and orange jacket, and orange pants with a silver X shaped pendent on a silver chain.
The said child was a boy by the name of Naruto Uzumaki and at the moment he was reading a scroll. Not just any ordinary scroll mind you, but the villages most forbidden scroll. You see the child had just failed his academy exam and was depressed. In desperation of becoming a ninja he listened to a corrupt teacher by the name of Mizuki who had tricked the boy into stealing the said scroll. Now the boy had done his job successfully he felt as though he should get started before his sensei arrived. At any rate, Naruto quickly began to read through the scroll searching for something to impress his teacher with when he showed up.
"Damn these look hard! I guess I'll just start with the Shadow Clone, it looks like the easiest." Naruto said as he went to work on learning the jutsu. After half an hour, Naruto heard an all familiar voice ring out in the forest.
"FOUND YOU!" Looking up from the scroll, Naruto saw it was Iruka Umino.
"Hehe, you found me quicker than I thought, Iruka-sensei. I only had enough time to learn a single jutsu from the scroll, but that's still enough to pass right?" stated the grinning blond while he rubbed the back of his head.
"Pass? What are you talking about Naruto?" asked the scarred instructor as he looked his student over.
'He's covered in sweat and he looks exhausted. Could he have really been just training?' Thought Iruka.
"Come on Iruka-sensei, stop fooling around. I stole the scroll and learned a jutsu, so I get to graduate!" Naruto said enthusiastically. Iruka was dumbfounded to say the least. Naruto actually believed that he would graduate.
"Naruto, who told you that?" Iruka asked the excited blond. Naruto looked at him with a confused expression and replied,
"Mizuki-sensei. Why?" Suddenly Naruto found himself knocked sideways by a tackle from Iruka. Before he could say anything the blonde noticed the tree he was standing in front of mere seconds ago was now riddled with kunai. He also saw that Iruka was covered in a number of cuts.
"Shit, I missed." stated a snide voice from overhead. Looking up Naruto Mizuki. Turning a now grinning face to Naruto he said happily,
"Congratulations Naruto, you passed, now hand over the scroll." Naruto then heard Iruka shout,
"Naruto don't! Mizuki tricked you! That scroll contains some of the village's most dangerous and forbidden jutsu. You can't let him take it!" Mizuki scowled at Iruka for a moment before a twisted idea sprung up in his evil little mind.
"Naruto, would you like to know a secret?"
"What kind of secret?" Naruto asked, very confused.
"Mizuki don't! Its forbidden!" shouted Iruka, understanding what Mizuki was planning.
"The secret behind why everyone hates and ignores you. The reason you will never be accepted in this village." stated Mizuki with a twisted grin. Noting he had the whisker faced boy's complete attention he began to secretly unsheathe one of the giant shuriken from across his back, keeping the movements slow and hidden.
"You remember the story about how the Kyuubi attacked sixteen years ago and was killed by the Fourth?" at Naruto's nod Mizuki continued,
"Well that was a lie, the Fourth couldn't kill the demon, so he imprisoned it inside a new-born infant." Iruka shout again for Mizuki to stop, but he was ignored
"That infant was you. You are the Nine-Tailed Fox! NOW DIE DEMON-BRAT!" shouted Mizuki as he let his giant shuriken fly at the boy.
Naruto didn't even notice the weapon flying straight at him. His mind was filled with thoughts of confusion and betrayal. Before Naruto could realized he was in danger, he felt a pair of arms wrap around him. It was Iruka, with a giant shuriken in his back. Naruto looked at his teacher, eyes filled with tears and a gaze that was asking "Why".
"He's wrong Naruto. You aren't the Kyuubi. You are the most caring boy I have ever met. You train yourself with all your might and you might screw up at times, but you never give up." Iruka said as Naruto began to really cry. Mizuki was becoming disgusted with this display and said as he slowly walked toward his victims,
"Ugh! This sentimental down-pour is killing me, so I'll be killing you now Iruka" This caused Naruto to snap his head towards the man and thought,
'He's gonna kill both of us! And I can't do anything!'
"Naruto! Run!" Iruka ordered Naruto as he barely stood before the traitor and the boy.
Naruto ran into the forest not sure where he was going, then suddenly, he stopped.
"It's time." A voice in Naruto's mind said as he nodded and gripped the X-shaped pendent on his necklace.
Mizuki was slowly closing in, taking pleasure in prolonging his victims pain.
"First you, then the demon!" Mizuki said as he reached for his other gigantic shuriken. Suddenly a large green blast of energy struck the ground next to the traitor, causing an explosion and sending him flying into a tree. Mizuki got up and saw Naruto standing in front of Iruka and in his hand was a sword. The blade was a long, very wide, double-edged form of a longsword. The crossguard consisted of a small red gem at the center and two straight ornate arms ending in simplistic version of a fleur-de-lis. The sword's handle ran through its guard, continuing on through a gold hollow space at the base of its blade. The handle was almost the same length of the blade itself. Naruto's hair had also grown down to his shoulders.
"You come near my sensei like that again, and I'll kill you." Naruto threatened, his voice low and even, as he stared daggers at the traitor before him.
"Yeah right! Let's put that to the test demon!" Mizuki said as he threw his gigantic shuriken at the blond. Naruto swatted it away with his sword. The blond then vanished, leaving a green flicker of light on the ground, then reappeared behind the the traitor, and sliced him in half. Iruka was in total shock at Naruto's power, but quickly recovered and said,
"Naruto come here." Naruto looked over and saw that Iruka was bleeding very heavily, and likely wouldn't last long. The blond went over to his sensei and knelt down next to him.
"Close your eyes." Iruka said softly. Naruto did as he was told, then felt something on his forehead. Naruto opened his eyes and saw that Iruka wasn't wearing his headband. Naruto felt his forehead and knew he was wearing his sensei's headband.
"You graduate." Iruka said, fighting to stay awake. Just then the Hokage appeared with several ANBU and saw the bloody mess that was Mizuki on the ground with Naruto and Iruka not far away.
"I can explain, Old Man." Naruto said as he wiped his tears. The old man shook his head and replied,
"No need. I saw it all, and it looks like you've unlocked an interesting kekkei genkai." Naruto allowed the old man to believe that, as he didn't want him to know the truth. Naruto then went home, and got into bed. Before he went to sleep he heard the voice from before say,
"Do you truly think you can pass your Fullbring off as a kekkei genkai?" The blond simply said aloud,
"Of course I can, but you and I both know that where there's one Fullbringer there's bound to be more, thanks to your little rampage." The voice then replied,
"So are you ready to drop your act then?" Naruto nodded and said,
"Oh yes. It's time for everyone to meet the real Naruto Uzumaki."
The next day Naruto made his way to the Academy to meet his team. He wore a black forehead protector on his right arm, dark trousers and a light orange sleeveless shirt, over which he wore a dark jacket that had a white fur-covered collar. He also wore his necklace with the X-shaped pendant, and black ninja shoes. As he entered his homeroom, he was received with surprised looks.
"NARUTO! This room is for people who graduated!" Sakura screamed. Naruto kept a small smile on his face and pointed to his arm as said,
"As you can see I did graduate, so I'd appreciate it if you didn't blow out my eardrums with your banshee-like screeching." Sakura was royally pissed off at Naruto's response and ran up to him, ready to knock the living daylights out of him. But Naruto as he just stood still. When Sakura was nearly on him, he disappeared and reappeared in his seat, as the pink-haired banshee struck the wall.
"DAMMIT! WHAT WAS THAT?" Sakura screamed in pain as she held her bruised hand. Suddenly a raven haired boy walked up to Naruto and said in a demanding voice,
"How did you do that?" It was Sasuke Uchiha. Naruto just gave a humorless chuckle and looked the other boy square in the eye.
"None of your business."
And that's that! How does it end? YOU DECIDE! Please, post
