No, I do not own the characters themselves, just this free fanfic.
Just so we're all clear, Naru's friends don't know about him Kyb's :)

PROLOGUE
The moon is nothing but a traitor this night, betraying me with its shine. Rain would be more appropriate, even if I don't want to get yet. Maybe it's telling me that I'm doing the right thing though, leaving them behind and casting off on my own. Yea, that has to be it, the calling of a new beginning. It's been 2 and some months now since you've been gone, and I've been taking all the blame. I can't do this anymore. The fake smiles, the fake attitude, they're nothing but lies to hide the hurt.
There's not even a cloud in sight. I guess I should get going, the night's only so long and I've so much to do. Good-by my friends and may you be happier with my departure.
A lone figure in the night secured his backpack and with a nod to convince his self, left the village. 30 other shapes appeared, and not a one took to the same direction.

It was a little past lunch time, and the boys were beginning to worry. Sitting at Ichiraku's, Shino and Shikamaru kept glancing back to the clock as Choji's head kept darting back to the door for ever little sound. Finally, Kiba appeared.
"I've looked everywhere for him! Naruto is definitely not in the village. I've checked all the places he goes to, but not even Sakura knows where he is. This brilliant plan of yours Shika, to make him feel better, kind of backfired hmm?"
Lee darted in just than, knocking Kiba to the floor. "Sorry, sorry." He rushed out, picking him up and setting him down. Akamaru barked. "There's something big going on in the village. I overheard Gai-sensei talking with Kurunai-sensei this morning, and they looked worried." He finished, taking a seat next to Choji.
"What did they say?" The dog-boy prompted.
"It was something about 'Naruto', 'not village' and then arguing about a direction before leaving. This means he won't be at training today. The villagers were talking about him too. What do you thinks going on?"
The boys shook their heads, the answer unknown.

Sakura was signing cheerfully, unknown to her where the resent events. I can't believe I got the afternoon with Kakashi today. It's been a while since me and Naruto trained together, but it's nothing like when Sasuke was here.
She reached the old and familiar bridge, ready to wait. When an hour past and Naruto wasn't there, she became more and more annoyed. When 3 hours and a half ticked by, she was royally pissed. Fuming, she clenched her fists together, the thought of making someone pay was screaming at her.
Shizune ran up to her just as she was leaving. "Sakura, wait! Kakashi received a mission this morning so won't be able to train with you. Do you know where Naruto is?"
"No, but when I find him…" She didn't finish her sentence at the look of worry crossing her fellow's face.
"That's funny, nobody's seems to know where he is."
"WHAT!!" The scream echoed throughout the village. Oh someone was definitely going to pay. How dare anyone send the blond where she couldn't vent anger?

Okay, this is just a prologue to the actual story, NOT the beginning itself. This way you can understand what's going on and everybody's happy. (Well, maybe not the characters.)
Review, I know you were here!
