Chapter 1: Meet Naruto
"I'm coming, wait for me." was the reply of little naruto as his blonde hair is making him stick out from everybody under the sun's rays. He pants as he tries to keep up with Hinata and not trip down the small hill they're running on. He currently is decked out in brown shorts and white tee shirt with green goggles around his neck.
"Hurry up, Ma-Chan is just over there with Itachi-niisan." Hinata yelled again as she paused to allow Naruto to catch up.
"O-ok" was Naruto's tired response as when he finally caught up he seemed ready to collapse.
"You ok." Hinata inquired as she cocked her head to the side her lavender eyes narrowing.
"Yep." Naruto responded still panting shutting his blue eyes from the world and feeling a light headache caused from the sun's heavy rays. "But if it isn't to much to ask can we walk the rest please."
" I guess" Hinata responded uncertainly as she judged the distances from where they stand and to there destination. "But long strides" she announces with great flourish and maturity trying to mimic her father then giggled at how she sounded.
"Alright lets go." Naruto says finally getting his breath back.
With a smile in place the 6 year olds proceed onward.
"Where are they." Whines a six year old girl. Her hair spiky-ish as it reaches the nape of her neck and the bangs frame the side of her face. She looks around wildly while her foot taps impatiently and tapping her finger against her black shorts and her hand running down her white shirt trying to get a wet and slightly red stain off it only to make it worst.
"Patience... and you should stop trying to rub that tomato juice off, you are only making it worst." states a eleven old boy with smooth hair in a ponytail and two tuffs of hair framing his creased face. He sits with a plain outfit that is unimportant.
"Whatever Itachi-niisan." was the response Itachi got from his sister, Matasuki Uchiha.
With a sigh he looks up to the sky, painted blue, shining sun, fluffy clouds and birds flying around. Finally he brings his head down and looking forward he sees two children walking towards him and his sister. Not mistaking that blonde and bright hair for anything else he turns his head and looks down at his little sister.
"I think those are your friends I am seeing from the distance, Suki-Chan."
Shooting up Matasuki looks around. Hair ripping wildly till she settles her sights on her friends.
"Hinata-Chan Naruto-kun." she yells as she waves her small arms wildly jumping up and down in excitement.
Seeming to share her enthusiasm they run to them, one getting there faster than the other.
"Ma-Chan, Itachi-niisan." yelled Hinata when she finally makes it a large grin in place on her face.
"Hi guys" came Naruto when he catches up. With a squeal the girls race off saying Naruto is it and Naruto runs to catch them without a complaint.
An hour passed as the three six year-olds play and Itachi watches. When it was time to go they walked to the Uchiha compound on Matasuki presistance to invite them. As the group is walking to the Uchiha compound Hinata gets a curious face and inquires as she turns to Itachi.
"Itachi-nii how is shinobi life." She said this with her head to the side.
Pausing mid step causing the rest of the group to stop he looks at her then the others faces to be met with that same curious look. Sighing he resumes motion as does the group of children.
"The life of a shinobi is...hard." Itachi said with a pause as if trying to the find the words to use. The village just barely passed a war with the Kumo Hyuuga incident, and Itachi did not want a war after seeing his friend Shisui memories of his experience in last one through Shisui genjustu. " What most people don't tell you is that life of the shinobi isn't grandeur and honor. You will kill, you will almost die and if you aren't strong enough you and the earth will become one after you are buried. In this business you could lose things most precious to you, like your heart even your soul and not through death either. You don't understand now and I hope you never do."
Silence reigned in the air as the children thought over what he said. Like Itachi said they didn't fully understand it, they just got the basics of what he was saying, being shinobi is hard.
'What is the fun if it is easy' Hinata says after thinking. Raising her head with determination reflected in her eyes she announces, "I don't care. I'll be one of the strongest shinobi that ever lived, and I promise you I won't lose myself." she whispered in determination that left no question.
"Right." Matasuki yells also.
Through this Naruto is silent. When he hears "Right Naruto-kun" as both girls look at him with sparkling eyes. With a smile he says "right".
At the same time they pump their little hands in the air. And yell to the heavens "BELIEVE IT."

So here we currently find ourselves in a cramped apartment. The Kitchen, colored a yellow sum hue, has a refrigerator in the corner, a small circular table right in the middle of the room, a microwave, stove and blender. The cream colored living room has a simple glass table, couch, a lamp on a stand with a bookshelf in a corner and a small T.V. set . The only bedroom, painted orange, has posters on the wall in disorderly fashion, a small bookcase filled to the brim with books, a big bed with black sheets, covering, and pillow case with a mop of blonde hair peaking out of the covers.
Naruto is laying there sleeping peacefully... until his alarm had to ruin that.
Ring!Ring! Ring!Ring!
"Ahhhh" Naruto yells as he jumps up out of the corner of the bed and rolls off the side to bust his butt on the floor. "Ouch" was all the tangled mess could say as it lay on the wooden floor.
Rising slowly he un tangles him self and making the way to the bathroom he sighs and runs his hand through his hair. "This is going to suck, believe it."
After getting out the shower Naruto stands in front of the fogged over mirror. Wiping away the fog he stares at his reflection. His normally spiky blonde hair matted from the weight of the water absorbed in it. His tanned skin and toned muscles, from hours of training, dripping water droplets on his tiled floor bathroom. Then his ocean blue eyes. The gems could attract anyone if the bags under them wasn't prominent.
Finally walking out of the bathroom he walks to a stand in front of his bed. He stares at a katana with a black sheath with gold accents, brown rope tied near the top and gold guard. The handle is also a dark gold with brown string wrapped around it.
Staring at it for a while Naruto turns away. 'I think I might have already lost my soul, Itachi,' chuckling drily 'I know others lose theirs to you. Isn't that right Kitetsu.' At this the sword seem to glow with a pink evil light.

Now walking through the village he is in his regular clothes, consisting of a white hoodie with an orange inside with the sleeves rolled up. Dark orange shirt under that with a black leaf village symbol. White cargo shorts that reach mid-shin to give his feat plenty of room since they flair out by then. White tubes that covers his elbows and white combat boots with orange laces. Lastly his blue forehead protector is around his neck. Walking through Konoha he nods to passerby and other people being met with the same greeting. He takes it all in. The bright light of the sun in it's nine o'clock position, the blue cloudless sky, the roar of the crowded main road. The yells of shinobi chasing a small blur. "Come back honorable Grandson" another yells "Fuck that, come back here you annoying little shit stain."
Seeing as it is almost everyday occurrence. Naruto sighs and with a shake of the head takes off in the direction of the blur. Swerving through alleyways, jumping on roofs, and flipping over couches and other miscellaneous things Naruto beats the blur causing it to run head long into him. That is if he did not side step it, grab a shruinken, and threw it at it's feet which it jumped over in the nick of time.
"Huh got to do better than that bro-" was what Konohamaru Sarutobi was trying to say till he hit his head on a nearby branch in midair. Naruto doubled over in laughter at the pittiful sight of the little boy on the ground with teeth missing and swirly marks in his eyes.
Konohamaru, recovering to laughter, jumped up and said to Naruto "Shut up" with a pout. He is wearing a yellow shirt, blue shorts, a long blue scarf and Naruto's old green goggles.
"Sorry Kono-Chan to funny." Naruto says calming down but still smiling and a chuckle escaping every now and then. "But what are you doing causing trouble again. Aren't you suppose to be in the academy."
Before Konohamaru can respond they here a dark voice "Yeah aren't you suppose to be in the academy."
Knowing that voice from anywhere Konohamaru freezes up.
"Hi Iruka-sensei." Naruto says with a small smile. Confirming Konohamaru's suspicion he pales.
"Hi Naruto" Iruka responds. "Now Konohamaru. GET YOUR ASS TO CLASS." Quicker than any hokage ever could, Konohamaru disappeared in a dust cloud to the academy. Just watching for a while seeing that huge dust cloud in the direction of the academy, Naruto smiles and turns away before turning his head to the side to face Iruka and smiles kindly at him.
"See ya Iruka-sensei I got things to do." Naruto says walking away calmly.
"Oh. By Naruto." Iruka says after blinking owlish-ly for a few seconds.
Now at the training grounds Naruto sees Matasuki laying there. She is wearing black cargos, black belt with an burnt orange color skull buckle , black sandles, crimson glove on her right hand with a white colored plate on the back of the palm and fingers, a crimson shirt, also a white midriff long sleeve leather jacket with the Uchiha crest on it, and lastly her forehead protector with black cloth on her forehead while her hairs bangs frames the metal plating.
"Hi Suki-Chan."
"Didn't I tell you to not call me that Uzumaki."
"Didn't I tell you to call me Naruto. Besides we were best friends and I believe we still are, so nicknames should be allowed."
Sighing she just shakes her head and close her eyes as Naruto sits next to her. She inhales through her nose as the wind picks up and she gets a whiff of Naruto scent. Slowly exhaling she calms herself down from smelling the scent of Naruto. He intoxicates her for some reason she doesn't understand. Some might say she likes him but she refuses to believe it.
As they sit in silence waiting for the other team members Matasuki peaks open an eye and looks at Naruto. She sees his eyelids sagging, eyes clouded over in memory, and bags forming under his eyes. Deducing the reason Matasuki closes her eyes again and sighs.
"You didn't get any sleep, Uzumaki."
Jumping in shock at the sudden question, more like statement, Naruto nods.
"Yeah bad dream...again."
"About the last mission we had?" Not hearing an answer she peeks an eye open and see the answer on his face in the form of guilt reflected in his eyes.
"Listen Uzumaki. What happened on that mission was not your fault. The sword was proved sentient and you are not at fault. It took over, it is ok."
"YOU DON'T GET IT. I lost control over the damn blade. I am glad it was just bandits but even they didn't deserve there soul being ripped out like that. You heard there screams. It was horrible. You didn't see the look in their eyes." By the end he looked ready to cry.
Ahhh. Blood splash to the ground from a stab through the stomach. A blue eye follows still holding the look of pure fear.
Stop, please I'm sorry. A man whimpers is body riddled with slashes, eye hanging lose and face beat beyond recognition. He should of been taken by deaths cold embrace but he could not get that relief. His one working green eye show immense pain.
No, no , don't, NO. His body starts to shrivel and turn gray bones become noticeable and cloudy brown eyes roll to the back of his head.
You monster. Said a man on his knees both arms gone and blood leaking down his side. Teeth missing and blood leaking from his mouth. And his eyes was the worst, the reason is simple. Naruto ripped them out and proceeded to crush them beyond recognition.
This was team 7 first C-rank mission and it went all wrong beginning with that damn sword.
Naruto jolts upright when he feels a warm feeling wrap around his hand. Looking down he sees pale fingers wrap around his. Following the hand on his he looks into concerned onyx eyes.
"No I didn't see the bandits look, but I seen the look of appreciation from the captive woman. Those men were horrible and as you can remember rapist. So what you did was justice."
Remembering the captive woman in there deplorable state and the look of gratitude in their eyes when they seen the team that had come save them. They didn't even bat an eye at the gore and blood on the floor. A few even spit on some faces of the ones barely alive who would die soon. Turning his head away from her caring eyes he sighs in sadness.
"Justice, huh," closing his eyes and slowly shaking his head he continues in a guilty tone of voice. "Justice only a monster could dish out."
Seeming to not miss a beat Matasuki responds, "Well my favorite type of monster, if it brings justice." Then she proceeds to close her eyes and put on a carefree smile.
Naruto looks at her quickly at the response and sees the smile. As he looks at it he can see a faded and cloudy image over Matasuki. 'That smile,' he thinks then smiles a little himself 'just like when we were kids.' He continues the thought never taking his eyes off of her.
Opening her eye to just an unnoticeable slit she takes in the light smile and his eyes in there enchanted state. 'With one more push I could get Naruto-kun to act normal.' Thinking on what to do she gets a hilarious thought her smile transforms. 'Oh this could be fun'
Seeing the difference in smile he breaks out of his trance to inquire what is wrong when Matasuki literally pounces on him. Eyes wide and confused out of his mind Naruto can't say anything. Matasuki smiles again but this time it is cat like one that is just swimming in mischief.
"But if Naruto-kun is still unhappy," she begins innocently then leans in close to place her lips next to his ear, "I'm sure that Matasuki can find a way to cheer you up." She ends airily and for further incentive licked his ear lobe as she grinds her shapely hips on his.
There was silence. Then a scream broke throughout the once calm village.

It has been about 5 minutes since that heart to heart and tongue to...ear. In that amount of time Naruto calmed down and moved to a different tree out of Matasuki's pouncing range. After another minute of silence and watching the birds in the sky enjoying the day Naruto looks at the young woman next to him. He is greeted to the sight of her with her eyes closed. Taking the opportunity he stares undisturbed. Her spiky hair grew longer to where it is flowing down her back mimicking her ancestor Madara Uchiha. Her skin is a tad bit tanner from training but not to much just enough to be healthy. Her skin is also unblemished and soft to the touch if her hand was anything to go by. Content to just take in the attractive details of his friend he just sits there in the peaceful silence. Unintentionally his eyes start to wander lower to her high B cup chest, to her flat stomach, to her generous butt that is unfortunately being sat on not allowing a good view. Remembering what was said by her he shivers 'If she did decide to do what she was insinuating then I positively would of been happy.'
"Matasuki."
"Yes."
Pausing he finally says, "Thank you."
"No problem, Uzumaki," she turns her head with a kind smile plastered on. "After all, what are friends for."
A few more seconds pass.
"Oh Matasuki."
Opening an eye to look at him. "Yes?"
"Please never do that again."
Knowing what he is talking about she smiles and her eyes narrows mischievously.
"No promise. Naruto-kun." she smiles seductively as she seemed to purr his name.
His eyes widen as his left eye twitches trying to remember when she became so flirty. While Matasuki just closes her eyes and just can't wipe the smile off her face at the shock his face reflects.
Around ten minutes later Matasuki hears a groan from her companion. At this Matasuki eyes snap open to behold a sight that also makes her want to groan too. There, walking all slow and in love in the distance on the road to the training ground, was Hinata and her boyfriend Kiba. Oh it made her sick to her stomach to see her once friend walk with someone who really doesn't love her. You can see it in the way he looks, talks and acts. He sends perverse looks to every thing with two legs and a virgina. He also tries to flirt with any girl and every fuck'en second he tries to cop a feel on Hinata's ass. 'Damn dog.' Matasuki sneers in her head. 'That is why I prefer cats, they have more finesse, and not to mention smarter then dogs, and less horny .' With a scoff she turns away but takes a peek at Naruto from the corner of her eye and not surprised by the sight she is greeted to.
Naruto is fuming at seeing that dog with Hinata. It is a secret (Yeah he did well at hiding it...not) that he use to have a crush on Hinata but when he was about to ask her out dog breath swooped in (more like barked in. Hahaha. No, well screw you *pout*). He is even more disgusted by the clothes she is wearing, no doubt to impress him, even if Naruto himself likes it. Turning his head away his gaze meets Matasuki's to view the same look in each others eyes. At the same time they both shake their heads and sigh.
As she is walking with Kiba all she can think about is how she tried to impress him. Hinata noticed that his eye was straying from her to other women and she did not like that. So to keep his eye only on her she decided a wardrobe change was needed. So now she is wearing high heel sandles, dark black short shorts that are showing off her long legs and nice butt, big jacket with a midriff shirt that seems to be a tad bit tight to show off her big C cup breast, she also left her hair down. At least she succeeded in getting his attention but she had to dress like a slut, being the only thing that doesn't scream it is her big lavender jacket she wore for conservative purposes.
As they finally come to a stop at the training ground they turn to eachother.
"See ya babe" Kiba says.
"By honey." Hinata says.
Then launching his head forward he captures Hinatas lips. As they kissing he starts to travel his hand downwards until a kunai comes flying to it. Moving his hand fast to prevent it getting screwerd he jumps away from Hinata to see the culprit. Expecting Naruto, he was confused when he did not see him glaring daggers at him but instead looking to his side with a slight smirk and a raised eyebrow. Facing direction that Naruto is facing, he sees Matasuki hand still raised from throwing the weapon that almost got his hand glaring daggers at him.
"Travel your hand any lower than the middle of her back your hand is mine." Matasuki eyes flashing red for a second. The reason she interrupted was because the sight made her want to gag and Naruto's sad/disappointed face made her feel some type of way.
A few minutes later when Kiba was a distance away Hinata turned to Matasuki to thank her.
"Stop." Matasuki dropped her raised hand. "You are just as much in fault for wearing clothes like that and you should of stopped it yourself if you didn't want it. Slut." she scoffed out at the end.
"What did you say!"
Unknown to them there sensei, Kakashi, showed up in a poof of smoke and leafs.
"You heard me. If you wish to dress like that then go head but don't do your whorish acts in front of me and Uzumaki with your horny ass dog."
Kakashi looks over the cover of his book assessing the situation. It seemed his two female students are fighting and Naruto is looking like a deer caught in headlights.
"Girls calm down." Naruto tries to placate them.
"Shut up Naruto/Stay out of this Uzumaki." was his response to his attempt.
Seeing this escalating far to much and becoming a troublesome problem Kakashi disappears in a burst of speed and knocks them out. Naruto included for shits and giggles also he looked like he needed a nap.

Waking up later all three wake up on a bench in front of the Hokage tower.
"Ah I see you are up, my cute little genin." Kakashi says with a eye smile.
Groaning they all glare at him correctly assuming he was the cause of there blackout.
"Oh don't give me that look. Tell you what. I got good news, we just accepted a C rank escort mission." Throwing a scroll in Naruto's lap. "Think you can handle it."
With wide eyes they read the scroll that has a big C over Naruto's shoulder, causing him to blush, then look at each other.
"I don't think we should do this. It could be like last mission." when Naruto says this they all gain a look. The genin sadness and Kakashi coldness.
"That won't happen again, trust me. And we will have another team accompanying us. Come on guys just try one more time. I know we had a bad experience, some worse than others, but please take this mission it could be better."
Looking at each other they nod once they all turn to Kakashi and say something they always did when they were younger.
"Believe it."
So began the mission of Wave.
AN: So bad start for first story of being on here, but that is why I am writing on here to get better before I jump in to the gritty stuff of the following story which will be this ones sequel or prequel it depends on your view. What I mean is this story isn't the real one, it is basically something important I need for Naruto and his future partner in crime to have. So forewarning this is going to be a weird series so any questions ask and I shall answer. Hopefully. Also sorry for any chapter should be out soon depending on how long it is bye.
