The sun slowly rises, birds begin to dance, people begin to awake from their slumber.
Welcome to "Konoha" a small city located in the Land of Fire. It is best known for it's warm climate, sandy beaches, and fairly small population of only 15,000 people.
Now the story begins of a young 13 year old boy named Naruto Uzumaki who.
"Damn it, I'm late!" Naruto gets out of bed, and begins changing to his school uniform.
"This is the last time I'm awake until midnight!" He brushes his teeth as fast as he can.
Naruto begins to narrate.
"Today is the first day of school, and I'm starting grade 8. I promised myself I would arrive at school in time, my luck is so bad".
He grabs his backpack, and heads downstairs to the living room, and is about to rush out the door... until.
"Naruto, your breakfast!" His mom Kushina calls out.
"Damn it, I totally forgot!" Naruto rushes into the kitchen and grabs a toast.
"You better hurry up, school starts in 10 minutes." Kushina tells Naruto.
"Yeah, I know" Naruto replies.
He takes a big bite out of his toast.
"By the way, where's dad?" Naruto asks.
"He had to leave early to work, there was an emergency". Kushina replies.
Naruto's dad Minato is a Commisioner in the Konoha Police Department. For the past few years, crime rates have been increasing in Konoha.
Naruto finishes his toast, and runs out.
"Remember to be home by 3:00 pm" Kushina yells out.
That was the time Naruto was suppose to arrive home since the streets of Konoha weren't safe during the evening.
"I know that!" Naruto replies back.
Naruto runs off to school as fast as he could, several minutes later he arrives at the school with 2 minutes to spare.
"I made it" Naruto tells himself.
Naruto sees Sakura who is standing next to her locker.
Naruto blushes.
"If only she knew how I felt about her" He whispers to himself.
Naruto walks up to Sakura.
"Hey, what are you doing?" Naruto replies.
"Isn't it obvious? I'm waiting for next class" Sakura replies.
"Right, stupid question" Naruto says in a embarrassing tone.
Just then the bells rings, and everyone heads off to class.
Naruto and Sakura both have History class, they both head to class.
When they get there, they notice Sasuke is in their class.
Naruto takes a seat, hoping Sakura will sit next to him. However she sits next to Sasuke.
"Hey Sasuke, how was your summer?" She asks him.
"It was fine" He replies in a calm tone.
Naruto clenches his fist, his face turns red, he was about to walk up to Sasuke in punch him right in the face.
"Man, what does she see in that guy?" He asks himself.
The teacher finally enters the class.
"Hello, I am Kakashi Hatake, I will be your teacher".
