Chapter 1: Genin Beginnings and New Things
Minato Namikaze was the Fourth Hokage of the Hidden Leaf Village and he was currently searching for a way to defeat the nine tail fox heading towards his village. A Chuunin ran into the room and said "Hokage, your wife is giving birth. She wants you there now." he used his yellow flash jutsu to get to her into a few seconds.
She held on to his hand, and both screamed out on pain when she had another contraction and injured his hand. "Minato, hold my hand please." she said to her husband.
"I would love to Kushino, but I need my hands to defeat the Kyuubi." he said, slowly backing into a corner. The Third Hokage barged in and covered his ears from the scream. He signaled for Minato to follow him, and when they could speak without hearing a scream, Sarutobi said "I have found a way for you to defeat the Kyuubi. If you sacrifice the life of a dying person that's a blood relative of the person you seal him into, you can save the village and you can still raise your son."
"Who can I find that's already dying that's a blood relative?" he asked. He would think it through after he saw and held his son. He opened the doors to the room and took his newborn son. He didn't know what to say except "Wow." They doctor pulled him aside and gave him some bad news. "Sir, I'm afraid your wife is very sick and will die within a few days. I'm sorry."
"Have you already told her about it?" he asked.
"We were a little afraid to sir." replied the embarrassed doctor.
"It's okay, so am I." he walked over to his wife and gave her the bad news. "Kushino, the doctor just told me that something that went wrong during the birth, and you now have some kind of sickness. You have about five days. Two you will have to spend without me, because I will give my life to seal the Kyuubi inside Naruto." he said, getting ready for the protests.
"No you won't Minato, because you will use my life to seal the beast."
"What!? I can't do that to you. I-" he started but Kushino interrupted him by saying "I'm dying any way, so I might as well save my village and let my son at least have on parent. Sarutobi, will you take care of Naruto when we leave?"
"Naruto, where did you get that?" asked Minato to his dying wife.
"I named him after my uncle that died on a mission to the land of waves."
"Anyway, I would be proud to look after him." said Sarutobi to kill some of the tension. Three days later, Minato had made a large amount of seals surrounding the Kyuubi while Gamabunta kept him at bay. He got back on the Toad King and used a giant Genjutsu to freeze kyuubi in place. He placed Naruto on the seals before he left the tower, so when he performed the jutsu, the spirit would be transferred to him. He put Kushino on the seals within the seals and used the jutsu. In a matter of seconds, the Kyuubi was moving into Naruto's soul.
Minato sighed and dismissed Gamabunta and used his yellow flash jutsu again to appear at the tower, where he picked up the crying Naruto and began to rock him to sleep. This would much harder than becoming Hokage.

TWELVE YEARS LATER
Naruto woke up that morning and found his dad eating breakfast. "Hey Naruto, did you get that jutsu after I left last night?" he asked between bites.
"Yeah but I am having trouble with that dog summoning Kakashi tried to teach me. Oh, and thanks again for that book you wrote on sealing." he said as the two of them left. Today was the genin exam, and Naruto was aiming for Rookie of the Year. Halfway to the academy, Naruto's fan girls began to chase after him. "I'll see you after the exam dad." he yelled as he took off. After three minutes of running, he met his best fried, Sasuke Uchiha, who was also running from his fan girls. "Hey, they get you too?" asked Sasuke to his friend.
"Right in front of dad. He was about to give me some advice. Don't worry though, we'll take shortcut three." they separated and rejoined on the other side of the fence and jumped down the hidden tunnel. They arrived on the river and used the walking on water technique to get to the academy. They jumped through the window and sat down.
Eventually the girls arrived and Iruka told ever one to sit down and they began the test. First was a written test, which Naruto passed with flying colors. Next they had to do three jutsu in front of two judges. Shino went in first and came out with a leaf head band. The process repeated itself until it was Sasuke's turn. He came out three minutes later with a head band. "Okay, last person to take the test will be…Naruto Namikaze." He stood up and heard a "GO NARUTO!" from his other best friend Sakura Haruno.
He went into the room where Iruka and Mizuki were sitting at a desk. "Okay Naruto, today you need to do the Substitution Jutsu, the Transformation Jutsu, and the Clone Jutsu." said Mizuki, not looking up from the desk.
"Can I do any Clone Jutsu or just the normal one?" he asked to his favorite teachers.
"Any will do if you can make them." Iruka took a giant shurikan from his desk and threw it at Naruto, who changed into a log on impact. Next he did a hand sign and changed into his dad. He de-transformed and did a clone technique, making fifteen clones. He then took out a scroll and unsealed a bucket of water, a mound of dirt, and bottle of strange smelling liquid. He made fifteen Water Clone, fifteen Earth Clones, and then did some hand signs and took a gulp of the liquid.
A burst of fire came from his mouth and formed into clones. "Okay Naruto, you can go now. Tell them that we will announce the Rookie of The Year in five minutes." he said thank you and resealed the stuff and left. "Hey guys, they're announcing the Rookie of The Year in five minutes." he sat down next to Sasuke and handed him a scroll. "Thanks for the help on the Fire Clones. My dad even learned them."
Before Sasuke could reply, Iruka came out and said "Congratulations every one on making it to genin. And now, for what you all have been waiting for. This years Rookie of The Year is Naruto Namikaze for Fifteen normal clones, fifteen Water Clones, fifteen Earth Clones, and fifteen Fire Clones. In second place is Sasuke Uchiha with ten of each of those. Naruto will receive this especially forged katana and a kenjutsu lesson from one of the leaf's master swords man, and Sasuke will receive this crystal necklace that can store chakra. The sword can be incased in chakra will that seal on the bottom of the blade."
They shook hands and every one clapped. "Now, every one report here tomorrow at eight Pm. sharp to be assigned to a team and a Jounin teacher." said Iruka and he dismissed the new genin. Sasuke and Naruto met Minato in front of the academy and he took them to his favorite shinobi store and they both got some new clothes and supplies.
Naruto changed from his old orange jumpsuit to a black pair of pants and a red shirt with a vest that had special slots for kunai and shurikan, and even a special strap on the back for his new katana. He got a pair of black fingerless gloves with plates on the knuckles. Sasuke got the same dark blue gloves and a purple shirt with dark blue shorts. They both got a new set of kunai and shuriken and Naruto bought Sasuke a katana so they could do kenjutsu with his dad. He also bought a book on weapon forging and some sealing scrolls with scrap metal and precious metals in them.
They went to a jutsu store and bought scrolls telling how to do a Wind Dragon Jutsu, an Earth Wave Jutsu, and an Ice Wolf Jutsu. Also, they got a Water to Ice Jutsu scroll. They took the stuff to the rooms were they were staying in the Hokage Tower and went to the Uchiha compound to get the few remaining possession that Sasuke had there.
The final thing they did was go get Sakura and went to the new Ichiraku Ramen restaurant and ordered some food. To start up a conversation, Minato said "So how did you do Sakura?"
"I managed to make seven Clones. Nothing big, but before you ask I beat Ino-pig." this made them and every one around them laugh.
"Very good, very good. Did you ever get that jutsu on that scroll I gave you?" he wondered.
"Actually I managed to do it after a few weeks. I never thought a Genjutsu could do that much damage." she said amazed at the Genjutsu he gave her. She reached into her bag and handed the scroll back to Minato.
"So dad, did you get that order?"
"What order Naruto?" asked Sasuke.
"Well you see, a while ago I sent out an order for a special sword for a special occasion, and I did actually get it earlier today when you were testing. Which reminds me, I got you each something for graduating." he reached into his own bag and handed each one a present rapped in multi colored rapping.
Naruto opened his first. It was a small box that when he opened it revealed pieces separating different kind of seals. Sasuke's present was a sealing scroll that Minato would not let him unseal until they were in the training grounds. Sakura's present was a small panther like creature. "What is the Mr. Namikaze?"
"This is an enhancer creature. This panther one in particular can make a Genjutsu or Medical Jutsu more powerful and as it grows it can attack enemies. Sasuke, inside that scroll is all the Sharingan jutsu that the Uchiha I had on my team as a Genin knew before he died. I hope it aids you when you achieve the Sharingan. Naruto, those seals are especially made for training. But use them very carefully."
After the dinner, Sakura had to go home and Naruto said he would walk her home, just in case. Sasuke and Minato knew what was really going on. They snickered and went back to the Tower. After walking Sakura to her door step, he began to walk away. Sakura thought quickly. "Hey Naruto?"
"What do you need Sakura?"
She hesitated as he walked back up to her. "Well, you see I wanted to give you something, but never mind."
"Hey Sakura, can I give you something?" she nodded her head and he suddenly leaned forward and kissed her. He pulled away from her and said good night. Sakura remained on the porch, blushing as her secret crush walked away. She turned around and her mother came out and gave her a big hug. "My baby girl finally had her first kiss. She's becoming a woman!" she exclaimed to the embarrassed Kunoichi. "It's about time I gave you the talk."
"Mom, I wouldn't do that with Naruto!" she yelled at her mother. She admitted she had thought about doing that but she never would until she was married. She just wondered who to.
When Naruto arrived home, his dad and best friend cornered him and made him confess what had happened. "Well, I kinda kissed her…on the lips." Sasuke looked some what shocked and Minato dropped on to the floor laughing. "You know Sasuke, since I get Sakura, you get the Ino-pig." this scared the shit out of Sasuke and he said he was going to sleep. Naruto did the same and woke up the next morning and got into his new clothes. He put on his vest and strapped his sword on to his back.
He went out and began training with the new katana. The night before, he had etched in the chakra casing seal and he had been chopping up dummy after dummy that morning. He sheathed the sword and took off to the academy. He arrived in time so that he and Sasuke could use the grounds for a kenjutsu practice fight. Their fan girls appeared and they ran into the classroom to get their team assignments. "Hello guys. Just in time." said Iruka to his students.
"Have you gotten to our teams?" asked Naruto.
"I'm about to. Team seven will be Sasuke Uchiha, Hinata Hyuuga and Choji. Your Sensei is Kakashi Hatake. Team eight will be Ino, Kiba, and Shino. Your sensei is Asuma Sarutobi, son of the third. And finally, Team nine will be Naruto Namikaze, Shikamaru Nara, and Sakura Haruno."
"YES!" said Sakura, pumping her fist in the air. She obviously didn't mean to do this in real life. Her inner sakura pumped her fist into the air and yelled 'YES, true love conquers all!' and she watched, feeling kind of embarrassed that she had done that. "Now that we did that, you will have to meet your Jounin teacher in the pieces indicated on paper that was given to you."
"Uh, Iruka Sensei, you never said my team's sensei is." stated Naruto.
"Oh, sorry about that. Sensei of squad nine…Tatsumaki Hoko. You will meet him at the Ichiraku restaurant." he dismissed them all, and team nine went to the restaurant and waited. "So Shikamaru, since Sakura and I already know what jutsus the other uses, what kind do you use?"
"I use my clan's Shadow Possession Jutsu mostly. I only know the required graduating jutsu other then that."
"Well, how's your taijutsu?" asked Sakura to her lazy team mate.
"Bad, I don't usually fight up close. I like to let my teammates distract them and I use my shadow possession jutsu to take control of their bodies. Now that you know what I do, what do you use?"
Sakura was the first one to answer. "I use the Substitution Jutsu over and over until they expect it and I get above them and land on them. I use mostly Genjutsu and a few Ninjutsu. My Taijutsu needs improvement. Naruto, your turn." he nodded and said "I use mostly Ninjutsu, but I know a good amount of Genjutsu and my Taijutsu is good, I just need some help on my Kenjutsu, but I'll find some one to help me on that."
"Don't worry; you'll learn a lot of Kenjutsu techniques. I'll make sure of that." said a disembodied voice. When they looked at around, Naruto threw a kunai at a set of waitresses and watched as their waitress became a man in a gray trench coat, a Jounin vest, and had a katana on his back. "Very good Namikaze, but now we have to leave for attacking the staff." Sakura hit Naruto over his head and they left.
They walked down the street and started to talk to the man. "Who are you sir?" asked Sakura. Shikamaru put his hands behind his head, looked up at the clouds, and said "He's Tatsumaki Hoko, our sensei."
"Very good Shikamaru. He's right, I am your sensei. I was wondering when you would find out I was their. You did pretty good. When we get to the memorial stone, we'll have a test to see what you can do, and you'll see my moves, including my kenjutsu." in a few minutes, they had reached their destination and found Sasuke's team their. "Hey Sasuke, what's happening?" yelled naruto to his friend.
Sasuke ran over to him and explained how they had to do the bell test and how Hinata had gotten a case of the nerves and had some trouble. "So you're still genin?"
"Yeah, we told her that if she wanted to prove she wasn't worthless to father then she needed to stick up for her self." they both talked some more and then Naruto showed Sasuke his sensei. "How come you got the guy who can use kenjutsu?"
"Because Kakashi has a Sharingan eye hidden under his mask. Don't let him know you know though. Can you go tell my dad who my team is for me?" he nodded his head and took off. "Okay Naruto, come find out what your test will be." he ran over and his new sensei said "I will be giving each of you three different tests. Three for each of you. First test for Sakura is getting me in a Genjutsu, Shikamaru's is capturing me in a Shadow Possession Jutsu, and Naruto's is hitting me with his katana. Begin!" the three genin disappeared in to the bushes and met up in the bushes behind the tree.
They began to make a plan. "Okay guys, I got an idea. I'll make a few Shadow Clones and Shikamaru can transform into one of them. While the other clones attack, he positions himself to get knocked into the tree, and from there he uses the jutsu. Then Sakura captures him in a Genjutsu and I hit him my sword. Lets go." Naruto made two dozen Clones and Shikamaru transformed into one of them. They all went into a circle behind the bushes and jumped out. Just like they planned, Shikamaru was knocked into the tree and Tatsumaki didn't suspect a thing. Naruto drew his sword and jumped into the air. With Tatsumaki's attention on Naruto, Shikamaru was able to capture his sensei in his Shadow Possession Jutsu. Sakura came out and put him in a Genjutsu, while Naruto cut him across the chest with his sword.
He stood up and said "Very good you three. You worked together to get the job done. Now for test number two. Shikamaru, you have to hit me with a different Ninjutsu, Naruto has to hit me with Taijutsu and Sakura has to hit me with a kunai. Begin!" he disappeared this time and they got back in a huddle. It was Sakura's turn to make a plan. "Okay, Shikamaru, what other jutsu can you use that might work?"
"My dad just taught me a Fire Style Jutsu. I'll use that."
"Great, Naruto should go under ground and jump up and hit him, knocking him off balance. Shikamaru, use that to get close enough to hit him with the jutsu and I'll be right behind you to hit him with a kunai. Lets go." Naruto used an Earth Style Jutsu to go under ground. Shikamaru ran out of the bushes and got his attention. Naruto jumped out and punched him in the gut and went back down. Tatsumaki doubled over in pain and Shikamaru shot him backwards with a Fireball Jutsu. He hit a tree and Sakura put a kunai to his throat.
She pulled it back and let him stand up. He walked over to the memorial stone and carefully folded and placed his coat on the platform. "Okay, final test. Naruto, try and hit my with a wWater Style Jutsu. Sakura, try and hit me, but you can't land a hit while on me on the ground or you have to restart. Shikamaru, you have to steal my katana, but with out me noticing. You can start now."
The three genin jumped away and met up. Shikamaru started the plan this time. "Okay guys, I've seen Naruto use a Water Style Jutsu before and you know which one, so Sakura should get in the water and Naruto will attack him with the jutsu and since Sakura is in the water, she will be put into the jutsu. She can hit him and while he's preoccupied with Sakura, I'll take his katana. Every body got it?"
"Yeah
"Good to go." they replied.
"Then lets go.
Shikamaru hid underneath some bushes and waited. Sakura jumped into the water and watched as Naruto made some hand signs. She was picked up and put into a giant Water Dragon Jutsu and watched as the head hit the ground but the tail whipped around and hit him the side, launching her into him. She repeatedly hit him and while this was happening, Shikamaru had been moving from hiding spot to hiding spot.
He watched as the Water Dragon exploded and Sakura began to attack him. He ran as fast as he could and drew the sword, placing it at his neck. "Good job guys. We got him." they backed off and returned him his blade. "Congratulations, you all passes the test and are now one hundred percent official genin." they all cheered and went out to eat at Ichiraku, apologizing for earlier. After they had eaten, Tatsumaki and Shikamaru walked home together, talking about new jutsu he wanted to learn, and Naruto walked Sakura home again. "Are you sure you want to walk me home again Naruto? I mean, you live in the opposite direction."
"I'm sure Sakura. I don't really want to risk something happening to you either." she smiled at him and held his hand. When they got to her house, she got halfway up the steps before he said "Hey Sakura, I want to ask you something." she turned around and said "Yes Naruto?"
"I was wondering if maybe you would kind of…be my girl friend?" she looked shocked but her inner self was saying 'YES! He totally asked me out! True love prevails again!' she smiled softly and said "I would love to be your girl friend Naruto." he pumped his arms into the air and shouted with happiness.
He blushed and said goodbye then ran away, leaving her laughing. He got to his dad's office and found him spinning in the chair, so he sat down. "Hey dad."
"Hey Naruto. So who did you get for a team?"
"I told Sasuke to tell you. My teammates are Shikamaru Nara and Sakura, and my sensei is Tatsumaki Hoko." his dad quit spinning in his chair all of a sudden and stood up. "Did you just say your sensei is the Tornado Swordsman of Konoha?" he asked.
"He never went by that title but he had a katana on is back."
"Naruto, Tatsumaki Hoko is a very powerful man who uses his Wind Type chakra on his sword to attack his opponents. He once made a tornado from his chakra during the war and that's what earned him his name. I'm actually some what glad you have such a powerful sensei. Which reminds me, I have to go out of the village for a few days, so be careful."
"Right, right, you know I always am." they both went to sleep and when Naruto woke up the next morning he found a note telling him he had the day off, and another saying his dad left already. He would spend the day with Sakura.

A/N: Okay, I don't really know what to do when it comes to Naruto stories, but I am getting really good at them i think. Leave a review telling me what you think, good or bad. This story is almost four thousand words on the nose so i am just letting you know that I will try not to make the other chapters after this one so long. If you have a better title for the story please tell me what it is and I might change it, but i don't know for sure. But seriously, leave me a review. I get tired of people reading and not reviewing.
