Konoha is beautiful village in the elemental countries, but like most people say don't judge a book by its cover. Most people would think that its just like any normal village out there. Only one problem with that is; Konoha is a ninja village. Ninja are hired assassins, bodyguards, pretty much anything you can think they'll do it so long as they pay. These ninjas are ranked from academy student to jounin. Now there are special cases such as the sannin. They are three specific shinobi who have surpassed any before them and have such been given the title sannin, in which they can do whatever the hell they want to as long as it doesn't affect their country or village and bring war upon them. The only person that out-ranks them and commands them is the hokage. Now the hokage is the big dog within the village. He commands every single ninja that wears the leaf symbol. Konoha is an amazing place that has reached its own peace after the third great shinobi war where Namikaze Minato earned the name Konoha's yellow flash. His signature techniques earned him that name after he made an impact in Iwa.

But like all times peace it wasn't to last. After the war Minato was instated as yondaime hokage. Years later the great kyuubi no kitsune attacked the village hidden in the leaves. The attack seemed to last forever and cost many lives. But in the end the yondaime was forced to seal the demon away. Nothing can hold a tailed beast except a just born baby. Only one baby was born that day. And his name became known among legends as Namikaze-Uzumaki Naruto. Our story begins when the hero is 17 and distraught over the thought of one Uchiha Sasuke.

" GAH! What the hell is going on? I'm possibly one of the strongest ninjas in this village and I cant bring back one stinkin person."

One Uzumaki Naruto was in his apartment beating himself up mentally because he had let Sasuke escape once again, when he had the perfect opportunity to get him back. And once again had to lie to the women he loved about how sasuke escaped AGAIN.

"Maaaaaaan I swear she's going t kill me if she finds out. Though I have to admit to myself Sasuke isn't going to come back unless Itachi is dead and it was him how killed him. Even then he wont be back to his normal self. Now the only problem with that is Sakura doesn't get that. Shes got it in her head that once Sasuke is back everything will go back to normal, but it wont I bring him back the easiest sentence will be 20 to life for betraying the village like that. Ugh life sucks. Jeez I need to calm down or I'll go crazy, babbling on and on about Uchihas and that stick up there ass. I think I'll play something, maybe that will calm my nerves."

With that he got up and went to his closet. After clearing some things off the floor he opened a trap door and grabbed a large, hard case. He set it on his bed and hit clasps. Lifting a lid a revealed a fine acoustic guitar that was polished so nicely that it shone even in the dim light of the room. Taking it out and sitting on a nearby stool, he played a couple of strings tuning each one as he did so. Once he was finished he began the openings to one of his favorite songs.

Outside his apartment Ino was walking towards his place to deliver a message from the hokage.

'Huh whats that? It sounds like someone is singing and playing guitar. Hey its coming from Naruto's room.' Ino thought as she climbed the stairs to his apartment. She reached his door and found it indeed came from his room. Being the curious person she is tried the door and found it was unlocked. She slipped inside and found Naruto sitting on a stool just in side the door way of his bedroom with a guitar in his hands and singing the song collide by Howie Day, one of her favorite songs. She was surprised to find that he was incredibly good. And the way he played the guitar was quite soothing. She often listened to this song when she needed to calm down or she was having nightmares. When she heard him ending the song, she quickly made it known that she did not want him to stop.

Naruto had just finished up his song when he heard a voice behind him telling him not stop playing.

"Wait don't stop I want to hear more." Ino called out in an attempt to keep him playing.

"Hey how'd you get in here? And whats with barging in?" Naruto responded a little peeved that someone had found out his secret that he kept hidden from everybody but the third hokage.

"Ummmm well I was delivering a message to from the hokage when I heard singing coming from your apartment and was curious and besides the door was unlocked." Ino said smartly.

SIGH. "I guess I cant blame anybody but myself on that. Can you keep this a secret I don't anybody else finding out about this? Its embarrassing enough that you found out about it."

"Why your amazing you should show people."

"I'm not that good Ino and besides no one is going to want to see me play."

"And if i could get you a crowd, a place to play will you do it? I can even get Sakura to watch to."

"I dont know Ino i haven't played in front of anyone but the sandaime."

"Oh c'mon please. You are really good."

"Alright i'll do it but the crowd cant be to big. no mor than 50 or 60 people."

Ino pouts at the lack of people but quickly makes up for it in the form of a deal."Alright but you have to perform at least 3 songs."

Naruto gaped at the what she said. He began to have an inner debate on what he should do. After thinking on it, he finally answer Ino."Alright i'll do it. But are you sure you can get sakura to come. I mean i don't know why she'd want to come see me for any reason at all."

Ino nodded her head. "Of course i can. I AM after all her best friend, she'll listen to me. Um do have other instruments that you can play. People normally like a person who plays different instruments."

"Yeah don't worry about that i'll take care of it. Oh and what was that message from the hokage?"

"Huh oh yeah she wanted me to tell you that special order you wanted came in." Ino said confused on the whole situation.

"Kay thanks for letting me know. I'll see you later."

"No problem and yeah I'll see you later." And with that she turned and left his apartment heading towards the hospital in hopes that she'll find Sakura and convince her to watch Naruto play.
