This is a possible new story that I have been thinking about, kind of a cross with Naruto and x-men. The idea being that the powers of the Naruto characters in this story will be based on their most distinctive jutsus.

Secret Lives

Prologue and bios

Freak, weirdo, monster…he had heard them all.

Naruto had been moving from place to place for a while. He was so used to running, he had grown to accept it as the norm, and he never thought he would find a place like this.

Naruto had found a place for people like himself, now 19 years old he had been found and brought into this place when he was on the streets at the age of 15.

His mother had apparently passed away during child birth, and he had lost his father when he was really young. He never thought that his old man would ever get taken, but that was exactly what had happened. He wasn't sure if his father was even alive anymore.

That was one thing that he had to get used to at a young age, and it was a harsh lesson for a five year old.

Because of what his father was he was hunted. And now so was he.

It has been so hard to control; the first time that it had happened was when he was eight years old. He was in a foster home, he was content and safe. But with a sneeze, it was all over.

He was just as shocked as anyone that saw it when an identical blonde boy just burst into existence right beside him. Of course his current family didn't understand, but he did. And he ran.

He was a mutant, like his father. They would soon be coming for him, and he had to leave.

It would have been easier to disappear if he had inherited his fathers' ability. Naruto may have been young when he last saw that in action, but that was one thing he'd never forget. Seeing his father teleport himself in a flash of light was awe inspiring.

Of course, he own gift did come in useful when he was trying get away. When his duplicates got caught, they could just dispel themselves. It was a great distraction when he wanted to give someone the slip.

And it worked until he was 15, when she came into his life.

Hinata was a shy girl, maybe that's why he was not on his guard around her. Thankfully it turned out well, she approached him and with a slight touch his ability was shut down for a short while.

His father had warned him about an organization that seemed to want to use people like him, but this group was not like them. They offered sanctuary, and he quickly joined them in helping convince others like him what was offered.

He had also gotten closer and eventually started dating the woman who brought him in. Hinata was the first person to help him with what he though was a curse; she was really helpful when he was learning his limits and what he could really do.

And so Naruto had found himself with a secret organization, it was not one that was trying to create human weapons like those who had hunted him. Rather they watched out for their own.

Naruto was sitting on a couch watching some TV, his girlfriends sleeping head was in his lap and he was absentmindedly running his fingers through her long hair. It was in this position that he was found by one of his friends.

"Naruto, Tsunade-sama wants to see you." He looked away from the TV to see Ino smirking at him.

"Do I have to?" he asked in the best whining voice he could muster.

"As much as I'd hate to break you away from this," Ino said with a smile, "she msut have something for you to do."

Naruto shrugged and woke Hinata gently, and he soon found himself in front of the leader of this group. The older woman briefed him in what she needed him to do.

"It has come to our attention that there is someone who may need some help." She said as she passed a file to her fellow blonde.

He opened it to see a picture of an attractive woman who was around his age. He looked to see that her information was far from complete, "What can she do?"

"Her abilities are unknown, but others have taken an interest in her, and that is good enough for me." Tsunade responded.

Naruto flinched slightly, knowing very well what others his boss was referring to. "Alright, I just hope this," he looked down at the name of the girl, "Haruno Sakura isn't too much of a handful."
