Another Lifetime

Eight years ago, a tai yokai attacked a village call the village of the hidden leaf. The tai yokai was no other than a great nine tail fox that terrorized humans every decades. The nine tail fox demon had nine tails each tail had its magical property to bring forth destruction by just a wave. So far no one had survive its terror, and those that survived lost a lot. However that year when the kyubi (nine tails fox) attacked the hidden village of leaf the kyubi met its end. The village of the leaf had a lot of casualties fending off the fox, but at last the great leader of the village defeated the fox. It should have been a happy day to celebrate the defeat of the demon. But for the great leader (YonDaime) to defeat kyubi he had exchanged his life to seal away the demon fox into a new born baby. Thus begin the adventure of Naruto!

"The way of ninja is to be always be in the shadows, killing without a sound and...!" The teacher all sudden stop lecturing, his gaze was fixed upon the back row where a dummy was suppose to be a student. "NARUTO!" The teacher yelled furiously at the dummy.

On the roof of the ninja academy was a spiky blond hair boy with a midnight blue jump suit. He was laying on the bench with a book over his face, not a care for the world around him.

"Na-ruto!" The teacher with a scar across his nose yelled and grabbed the blond hair boy.

"Iruka sense i... What do you want today?" Naruto asked without opening his eyes, and with his book still over his face because he was holding it there.

"How many time must I yell at you to stop skipping class? Attendance is part of the class grades too not only the test are always important! You might know a lot more than the class but that does not excuse you from class." Iruka sensei put Naruto down on the bench again, then shakes his head in disappointment.

"Understood sensei ..." Without looking at Iruka Naruto walked away casually down back to the classroom. Iruka followed not far behind wondering where he had gone wrong as a teacher. When Naruto got to class he sat down in the back where no one was sitting but himself.

"There he go again, always the same routine I don't know why he even bother coming to class if he is going to not show up but stay up on the roof." A black hair boy whispered loud enough so Naruto could hear. "This is troublesome." The boy continues complaining.

"I heard he was held back because he got into a lot of fight with the sempai's, and he got into a fight with one of the teacher last year too." A blond hair girl whispered to a pink hair girl next to her.

"Ino, he is nothing but trouble, I heard he have his followers kill the teachers who gave him F's so none of the teacher would give him a F ever." The pink hair girl whispered to a blue hair girl with whited eyes.

Well it goes on and on. Some true some not. But Naruto however did nothing but sit there oblivious to it. Iruka did nothing to stop the gossiping as well too because he thought it was ok because Naruto did nothing to stop it too. So it is common for these rumors to spread around like wild fire.

After class was over Naruto was about to leave to go home but Iruka had stop him.
"We need to talk, I know I am busy with school and missions everyday but I want to know what is going on with you." Iruka look at Naruto with concern, and wait for a reply or something.

"I just don't feel like talking that is all, I don't have anything to say either way." Naruto said with a bored look. Naruto stood there ready for the pity but none came.

"Naruto, I want you to know I am here if you ever want to talk about anything that is bothering you. I care about you, but if you don't come to me with your concerns or just to talk. You could always come to me when you need help." Iruka's tears rolled down his cheeks. "I know how it is to not have parents there too, so I know the pain that you're going through." Iruka wiped the tears away and sat down.

"I have to go Iruka sensei, and thanks for the kind words. See you tomorrow." Naruto said with respect and left through the doors. He walked home slowly not wanting to go home to a empty house. So he decided to go to the training grounds. However before he reach there a girl about his age was already there training. His training ground well not exactly his but it was his secret training ground. Before Naruto could turn and walk a way a kunai was thrown toward him. Naruto barely could dodge because the kunai had curve that way too. The girl was no where to be found, as Naruto looked around. But just as he turn around behind him. There a girl with wavy brown hair and crimson eyes stared at him. She wore a red kimono with black sash black fingerless gloves. By her side was two Katanas. She was in a stance that Naruto had never seen before so Naruto was about to reach for his kunai. But at that exact second the girl's Katana was draw out on Naruto's neck. The blade barely touch Naruto's flesh but a trickle of blood was on the blade where she had put it on Naruto's neck.
