A/N: Basically my first attempt at a Naruto story. I happen to really like Naruto and plan on doing a good job, but you never know how things will go.

Naruto was walking back to his apartment. He had just met with his team to find out that Kakashi had nominated them for the Chuunin Exams. Naruto was overjoyed, due to the fact that he could possibly go up in rank."I can finally get closer to becoming Hokage!" Naruto thought. He was thinking about the possibilities so deeply that he didn't realize there was someone in front of him. He ran into the person, knocking both of them down.

"Oh crap, I'm sorry," Naruto said.

"You need to watch where you're going!" the person said.

Naruto now noticed that the person was a boy, about one year older than him. He had pitch-black hair with dark purple mixed in as well. He was taller than Naruto and was wearing a black, sleevless shirt with bandages running down from his elbow. He also had dark blue shorts with bandages around his lower legs, ending at his ninja sandals.

"Hey, I was just trying to be nice!" Naruto said, angry at the boy's rudeness.

"Heh, whatever loser, just get out of my way," the boy said.

"That's it!" Naruto said. "I'm gonna show you that I'm not a loser and become Hokage one day!"

"Suuure, but if it's a fight you want, let's see what you got!" the boy said, getiing into a taijutsu stance.

Naruto ran forward, fist raised to punch the boy in the face. The boy dodged to the left, spun around as Naruto stumbled, and delivered a kick to Naruto's back. Naruto was knocked into a fence.

"Too slow," the boy said, smirking.

"I'll show you!" Naruto yelled. "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" Four Naruto's appeared next to the original, smiling in confidence.

"Clones can't do anything to me, they're not real," the boy said laughing. He ran foward and threw a kunai at one, while throwing a punch at another. The one that a kunai was thrown at dodge, the other was dispelled as the boy's fist connected with it's stomach. Then, the boy's eyes widened in surprise as one of the clones knocked him in the air. One appeared above him and was about to kick him, when he threw up his arm and blocked it. They both landed a few feet apart.

"Looks like you were wrong about my clones," Naruto said.

"I underestimated you, now it's time to get serious and end this quick,' the boy said. He then ran toward Naruto so fast that he seemed to disappear. Naruto's eyes widened in surprise as he was kicked back and hit a tree. He stood slowly and saw the boy forming handseals.

"Raiton: Rinji Fuzui!" the boy called out, pushing his palm toward Naruto. A flash of light flew forward and hit Naruto. Naruto couldn't move anything after being hit. The boy walked forward and put a kunai to Naruto's throat.

"I could kill you right now, but my sensei wouldn't like that," the boy said. "Besides that, I would also get in trouble with the village."

"What do you mean?" Naruto asked, wearily looking at the kunai.

"You don't know?" the boy asked. "Uhhh, no?" Naruto said.

"Man, you really are a loser," the boy said. "Anyway, since the Chuunin Exams are coming up, other villages are coming to Konoha. It also means that no one can be killed or such, except during the exams."

"Oh, okay," Naruto said. The boy put his kunai back in his leg holster.

"I have one more question for you before I leave," the boy said. "What's your name?"

"My name's Naruto Uzumaki and I'm gonna be Hokage some day!" Naruto practically yelled, though it looked funny because he couldn't move. The boy's eyes widened for a second, but went away just as fast. He nodded and started to leave."Hey, what about me?!" Naruto asked, still not able to move.

"Don't worry, the jutsu will wear off soon," the boy said. He kept walking and finally disappeared.

"Who was that?" Naruto thought out loud.

"So, did you find out where he was from Naruto?" Sakura asked.

"Well, he didn't tell me, but his hitai-e had four vertical lines on it," Naruto said.

"Then he's from Amegakure," Sakura said.

"Guys, could we hurry and get to the school already?" Sasuke asked, slightly annoyed.

"Oh, yes Sasuke-kun, lets hurry," Sakura said.

After they entered the school, they reached the floor with other genin in a big group at a door. After Sasuke noted that the door had a Genjutsu on it everyone headed for the real room. Later, after Sasuke's fight with Lee and, to his embarrassment, loss and their meeting with Kakashi, they entered the waiting room. After meeting up with the other "Rookie 9", Kabuto came up and offered his help. They saw Gaara's nin-card and this caught Naruto's interest.

"Hey, Kabuto, can I get you to show me another?" Naruto asked.

"Sure Naruto, do you know anything about this person?" Kabuto asked.

"Not a lot, but he's from Amegakure," Naruto said.

"Well, that makes this slightly difficult," Kabuto said. "Ahh, here we are, three genin teams from Amegakure."

Naruto looked over the cards and found the one he was looking for. "That one," Naruto said, pointing at the far left one.

"Okay," Kabuto said. "Ahh, his name is Ryuzuchi. It says here that most of his history before becoming a genin is hidden. Other details would be that his primary element is lightning, while his secondary is water. Then his Ninjutsu and Taijutsu is above average, while his Genjutsu is about average. Finally, he has done 15 D-rank missions, 5 C-rank, and 2 B-rank. The data also says that he hasn't been badly injured at all."

After learning about Ryuzuchi, they looked at his other teammates. A girl named Tsuya Kyoushu, who had dark red hair, and a boy named Jinsoku Shuuha, who had blue hair with white streaks. Then they were told about the sound ninja and Kabuto was attacked by Dosu. Morino Ibiki then came in and told them to quit fighting and to get ready for the first exam. Everyone was then seated as the test began. Naruto was seated next to Hinata, but was also seated next to Ryuzuchi's teammate, Tsuya.

'Okay Ryu, Jin, here's the answers.......' Tsuya started sending her thoughts to her two teammates. The rest of the test went by with everyone trying to get the answers. Tsuya noticed that Naruto was very nervous and still hadn't answered a single question. "I feel sorry for ya kid," she thought. After the next 30 minutes, Ibiki stopped the test and asked who wanted to answer the next question. People started getting out of the test until Naruto yelled about it not mattering that he was still a genin and that he would still become Hokage. Ibiki smiled and noticed that no one else was going to quit.

"Heh, well....you all pass!" Ibiki announced. The window then burst open after an uproar of protests and Anko appeared yelling about the genins being maggots.

Naruto was walking toward Ichiraku Ramen when he noticed Ryuzuchi standing in an alley talking to a Jounin. He hid behind the wall and started listening in.

".....tell me Tou-san!" Ryu yelled.

"I'm sorry son, I didn't think that we would meet him so soon," the jounin said.

"How could you not notice that your own family would live in Konoha!" Ryu said loudly. "After all this time, you didn't tell me that I had a itoko!"

"I"m sorry Ryu, but I didn't want to hurt you by mentioning that," the jounin said. "It would bring back to many bad memories about your obasan."

"It would have been a whole lot easier if you would have told me that Naruto Uzumaki was my itoko tou-san!" Ryu yelled as he stormed off toward the other end of the alley. His tou-san stood there, looking down at his feet with tears forming in his eyes. He stood there for another minute and then followed Ryu. If he would have looked back he would have noticed Naruto standing at the other end, a look of shock on his face and tears starting to form. Naruto then ran blindly home to think about what he had just learned. His mind already set on talking to his ojii-san as soon as possible.
