Chapter One
"K-Kakashi why are you doing this? I thought you said you loved me, or was that just a lie to get into my HEART?" Naruto's voice, which had barely been a whisper at the beginning, suddenly grew in volume as he glared up at the man he once loved. Yes, the correct word was 'once' for the man in front of him wasn't his Kakashi. No, the damn bastard was only his look a like. Kakashi was a gentle man who had died by the hands of a snake. Glaring at the fake Kakashi, he laughed before putting his hand over his face and saying, "I must have been desperate to actually think that 'you' were my Kakashi." He said the word 'you' with such venom that even the Kyuubi, lord of all bijuu, flinched back.
Letting his hand slide down his face, he revealed his now amethyst slit hues as he growled in demonic lyrics, "I had made a promise to Kakashi-Koi never to use this but it would seem I have no choice. Don't you agree Orochimaru." The skin that was on the man in front of him's face seemed to melt off and reveal the form of Orochimaru in Sasuke's body. Before Orochimaru could say anything, he was cut off by a crazed fit of laughter. "Oh my, isn't this just rich. The big bad Uchiha didn't have enough will power to keep from getting possessed by an old fucking snake!" Naruto cried out as he walked over to Orochimaru, who was now eying Naruto like he was a piece of juicy steak.
"Oh ho, the snake sees something he likes." Naruto looked down at his bare chest, which had a scar right in front of his heart from a Chidori. Though it wasn't like the rest of him didn't make him look like a war god. Though beautiful, he was completely covered by scars. Each piece of the scarred tissue reminding him of a time that he couldn't protect his precious ones. His sunshine blond, spiky locks were no longer the same for they were now silvery blond locks with two strips that went down a bit past his shoulders. The back part went towards the middle of his back. He had only started this style after Jiraiya had died and he found out that the Yondaime-sama was his father.
Orochimaru, having been too busy looking at the eighteen year old's body didn't even notice when he began running through the process of a forty seal jutsu. It wasn't until he reached the end and whispered, "Fūinjutsu: Space and Time Manipulation!" Orochimaru's eyes went wide as he watched Naruto drop into a hole that appeared below him. A grin was on Naruto's lips as he said, "Remember Orochimaru, Madara and yourself aren't going to have the same chance next time."
Konoha: 6 Years in the Past
Shooting off the bed Naruto looked down to see that he was in his tiny apartment and wearing his ridiculously tiny pajamas that was cutting off his circulation. Looking over at Gama-chan, he smiled for he realized that it was only five in the morning. Seeming to peel the pajamas off his body, Naruto walk to the calender and groaned as he saw that it was the day of the team placements.
Moving to the closet to find clothes, he sweat dropped at the sight that greeted him. There was literally fifteen wait no sixteen bright ass orange jumpsuits hanging inside the damn thing. "What the hell was wrong with me?" "I always wondered the same thing kid. Now, I need you to get in here...fast!" Having completely forgotten about the bijuu sealed within him, Naruto nearly jumped out of skin at the sound of his voice, but quickly got over the feeling. Grumbling about troublesome foxes, Naruto closed his eyes and entered his mindscape to find that it looked like a sewer and there were two massive gates instead of one.
"Hey Kyu, you want to explain to me why my mind is a sewer again and I have two massive fur balls instead of one?" A low, sinister chuckle came from the one on the right and he heard, "So you are the one I was...wait one fucking minute! You are supposed to be like twelve, why the hell do you look like you are a fucking teenager?" Naruto face faulted at the bijuu's rant and then turned to look at the cage on the left. Within it was a male with long red hair, a pair of ears, and seventeen tails swinging behind him. He was dressed in a male-style black kimono with blue flames and a pair of clogs on his feet. "Kid, I think you somehow deleted your younger self and transferred my younger self over to you..."
Naruto blinked, and then just blinked again as he looked at two bijuus. "So wait Kyu, you mean to tell me that I somehow have two bijuus within me instead of one...IS THAT EVEN POSSIBLE?" Kyu shrugged his shoulders and was about to talk when he was rudely interrupted, "Hey, anyone want to clue me in on anything?" Kyu twitched a bit as he looked at Naruto and said, "Now I understand why you used to call me annoying...Kami, will that creature just shut up?"
Laughter escaped Naruto's lips as he glanced over at the younger Kyuubi and said, "Hey, go into your hanyou form and we might have a conversation." Nodding his head, the other Kyuubi transformed into a male with short, spiky red hair, a pair of ears atop his head, and then nine tails flowing freely behind him. His attire was the standard Leaf Village Jounin attire, but without the vest and headband. "Oh looky looky, he actually wore it. Just be glad you aren't wearing the Yondaime's attire or you might die kid. Say, I think I will go by Kyu and you can go by Ryuu. How does that sound Naru-Chan?" In reply to the older fox, Naruto shrugged his shoulders and then went back to looking around the horrible mind scape.
Ryuu as he was now being called, was a bit confused at what the other had said. "Kyu-sama, why would I be dead if I wore what the Yondaime wore?" Kyu gave his younger self a deadpanned look and then nodded his head over to Naruto, "Look at Naru-Chan and tell be who you see." Ryuu looked over at Naruto and stared for a second before his eyes got as big as saucers. "No fuckin' way! The crazy bastard sealed me in his own-" He was cut off as Kyu hand went over the mouth and stopped him from saying anything. "Mouth shut when talking about Yondaime-sama, you will learn soon enough that Naru-Chan doesn't like it when we talk bad about his family."
Naruto could hear the two bijuus conversing, but really paid them no mind. Instead he was going about trying to figure out how he was going to set his mindscape up this time. Closing his eyes, he made collars appear around the two bijuus' neck and then the cages disappeared. Next he made the sewer warp into a massive mansion with a dojo, five rooms, a pool, and then of course a forest for the two creatures to hunt in. Opening his eyes, he glanced around at his work and nodded his head before saying, "Yes, I do believe this will do."
The two bijuus blinked as the mindscape suddenly changed. Looking around, Ryuu grinned maniacally as he shouted, "YOSH, I CAN SEE THAT THE FLAMES OF YOUTH ARE BURNING BRIGHTLY IN YOUR MIND YOUNG NARUTO-CHAN!" Kyu and Naruto were both drop jawed as they stared at Ryuu. When Naruto finally got over the shock he said, "What. The. Hell. Did. He. Just. Say. Kyu?" Kyu merely stared in disbelief at what his younger self had just said. "I honestly don't know kit...at least he isn't wearing 'that'." A shudder went up both Naruto and Kyu's spine as they remembered Gai and Lee. Naruto then remembered that he had to go and buy new clothes. Quickly exiting his mindscape, he heard Kyu screaming for him to get back there.
Naruto quickly blocked out Kyu and Ryuu's voices before looking back to the closet and shuddering. Moving over to the cursed place once more, he opened it and found that one of the abominations were actually his size. Sighing, he got out a bottle of ink and then proceeded to draw a seal on his shoulder. When he was finished, he activated it and felt himself shrink. Walking to the bathroom, he looked and the mirror to see that he was barely 5" in height, which made him literally want to cry but at least he had his hair. It wasn't down to the middle of his back anymore, but it reached a bit past his shoulder blades while his bangs framed his face. He looked like a young Minato, but with Kushina's build. "Okay, lets get the shopping over with."
Using a henge over his other one, he made himself look like a civilian and proceeded toward a shinobi owned shop. Ten-Ten sighed as she waited for customers to arrive. She really had no idea why he dad insisted on them opening so early, it wasn't like anyone would show up at 6:30 in the morning. No, a normal person would be fast asleep with not a care in the world. Suddenly the door opened, startling her a bit as she looked to see a seventeen year old raven haired male enter the store. "Morning, is there anything in particular you want?"
Naruto looked at the one who had spoke and saw the familiar twin bun hairstyle that belonged to Ten-Ten. To say he was a bit speechless was an understatement. He had watched the girl in front of him die right before his very eyes, so it was taking him a bit...okay a massive amount of effort to keep from hugging her. "Umm...sir, can I help you?" Ten-ten said in an impatient voice. Naruto jumped a bit as he apologized, "Gomen, you just looked like one of my old comrades..." Ten-Ten noticed the far away look in the customer's eyes and without thinking she said, "She died didn't she."
A sad smile crossed his lips as he said, "Yeah, but that is the past. Now, I don't really need help because I have been here before. Thank you for the offer though." Ten-Ten stared at him for a second before returning to behind the counter to look at a weapon catalog. Naruto sweatdropped as he noticed it was the same catalog that he had ordered her katana from. 'Damn, how long has she been wanting that thing...' Walking over to the clothing he grabbed ten pairs of black cargo pants with lots of pockets, black muscle shirts, black long sleeve shirts, and fishnet tops. He then remembered the numerous pairs of blue shinobi sandals and grimaced before grabbing three pairs of black shinobi sandals and two pairs of black fingerless gloves with metal plates over the knuckles.
Walking over to the counter, he laid them down and said, "Have no fear, I am not even remotely close to finished..." Ten-Ten eyes were huge as she looked at all the things that the man had put on the counter. Dollar signs were starting to appear in her eyes until she noticed that the customer had a henge on. Putting her hands together she whispered faintly, "Kai." The henge disappeared to reveal a 5" tall eleven year old blond. Naruto looked back at her shocked expression as she pointed her finger at him and said, "You are the kid the failed the exam...TWICE! You look different." Naruto sweatdropped at her as he sighed and said, "Yeah yeah Ten-Ten, as you can see I am actually trying to take the whole thing seriously because I actually passed. Surprisingly..."
It was then that Ten-Ten's father chose to walk in from the back. When he saw Naruto, he blinked a few times before his eyes got as big as saucers and he said, "Minato, you didn't." Suddenly Naruto was in front of the man with a burst of speed that rivaled Gai's, and he pushed him into the back closing the door and leaving a startled Ten-Ten. Releasing the man, Naruto ran through seals and the room glowed purple before he sighed and said, "Yes sir, my father did seal the nine tails within me though I would appreciate it if you didn't shout it out for the world to hear. My life is already hell, I don't need anyone making it any worse." The man blinked at the boy before tears began forming in the corners of his eyes.
Moving forward, the man wrapped his arms around Naruto and pulled him into a hug. "Forgive the foolish villagers Naruto-" He was cut off as Naruto slipped out of his arms and smiled, "Don't worry, I bare no hatred towards the villagers of Konohagakure, quite the contrary actually since I love each and every one of them just as my father before me." He stopped there and let his words sink into the other's mind before he continued, "Hatred is an endless cycle until one steps forward and shows forgiveness, aren't I right Keera?" Tears were now falling from Keera's eyes as he listened to a boy no older then eleven speaking as if he was older. 'Oh Kami, no eleven year old should have this sort of mindset.'
Before Keera could say anything in reply, he noticed that Naruto had hearts in his eyes and drool dripping from his mouth. Turning to look where the boy was staring, he noticed that it was at his most recently finished project. Before he could say anything, Naruto was in front of it making Keera blink and wonder how the hell the kid got there so fast. Keera slowly approached Naruto and said, "Like my latest work?" Naruto turned swiftly, "How much do you want for them?" Keera began thinking for a second only to find 1,000,000 Ryo, which was in a small bag, in his hand. "You can have all that, I just want these wonderfully crafted works of art!" Naruto practically yelled as he picked up the scythe. "Oh dear kami, you actually used the youki metal!" When Keera heard this, his eyebrow raised in question before he actually voiced his question, "I did?" A sadistic grin, one that but Ibiki and Anko's to shame and made Keera feel sorry the person who got on the child's bad side, appeared on Naruto's lips, "Yes, and it just so happens to be the same metal used to create Kyuubi's own armor and weapons. I don't know how you got a hold of this shit but you are officially my hero!"
Keera blinked a few times as he watched Naruto seal away the Scythe, twin katanas, and the anbu blade into a scroll, which Naruto had pulled out of that horrid abomination. "Keera-ojiisan, your shop is officially the only place I am ever going to shop." He released the privacy jutsu and opened the door to find a red faced Ten-Ten waiting for them. Slipping past her, he went and grabbed four black trench coats, black bandages, two kunai/shuriken holders, and then about forty shuriken and kunai. Walking to the counter, he smiled and said, "Okay Ten-Ten, that will be about it...Oh crap I forgot the chakra weights, ink, and blank tags!" Turning he went over and got the rest before saying, "Okay, now I'm finished."
The grand total of what he spent after buying new furniture, dishes, bedroom set, and other items came to about 1,645,000 Ryo, and left Naruto sulking because his froggy wallet, Gama-Chan, wasn't fat anymore. After he got over that, he brought out scrolls and sealed the items into them. Shunshining back home, though instead of leaves or smoke he got surrounded by wind, he sighed and commenced to his apartment's renovation. Laying out all the scrolls with clothes and weapons, he grinned and said, "Okay, KAI!" All the scrolls released at once leaving Naruto with quite a few piles of new items to pick up. Walking to the closet, he opened it and began throwing out every last horrible jumpsuit, goggles, and sandals he saw. After that he used a fox fire to burn the massive pile of abominations, including the one he had been wearing, and then went on to putting everything up.
When he got to the fridge he nearly fainted. Sour milk, rotten vegetables, half eaten cups of ramen, and the moldy...what ever that was. He slammed the door shut and used a katon jutsu on the damn thing. Pulling out his extra scroll, he set it down and released a new fridge in the other's place. Breathing a sigh of relief, he plugged it in and then began to put away the cold groceries. Moving to the pantry, he had a feeling at what he would find and sure enough that was what was there. Instant Ramen. Growling, he shouted out for the world to hear, "I HATE INSTANT RAMEN!"
After about forty minutes, with the help of the ever so useful Kage Bushin no Jutsu, Naruto grumbled about how troublesome his younger self was and how the pink haired banshee was actually right about him being a baka. Though he was quickly pulled out of his thoughts when he caught the chakra signatures of the Sandaime and Kakashi moving towards his apartment. This made him look at the clock only to sweat drop as he saw that it was 8:30. Walking to the bathroom, he looked in the mirror to make sure the bandages around the bottom half of his face were on(think of the final form of Ichigo's Bankai). He was wearing his long sleeve black shirt with a fishnet top and the sleeves held down by bandages, hands had the fingerless gloves on, his headband was attached around his bicep, and then black cargo pants whose ankle area was held by bandages. He slipped into one of his new pairs of shinobi sandals and sealed his scythe in a small storage seal on his wrist. One kunai/shuriken holster was attached to his right leg and then both his katanas formed an X on his back.
Walking to the door, he startled his soon to be sensei and the Sandaime by bowing his head and saying with an eye-smile, "Forgive me Sandaime-sama and Hatake-san, but it would seem that I got lost on the winding road of life. Now if you will excuse me, I should probably be going so I may find out which Gennin Team I was placed on." Naruto then melted on that spot after whispering, "Suiton: Shunshin no Jutsu." The Sandaime blinked a few time before looking to Kakashi and saying, "Kakashi, did you just witness what I just witnessed?" Kakashi merely nodded before saying, "Sandaime, I think you need to update the file on one Naruto Uzumaki. Also, was that a new form of shunshin he just used?" A groan exited the old hokage's lips before he waved Kakashi inside the apartment only to find that it was newly remodeled. To say Sarutobi was surprised would have been an understatement. Especially when he heard Kakashi say, "Are you sure his favorite food is ramen because I see none..."
A puddle of water appeared on the floor outside of Iruka-sensei's classroom, and then it slowly started to form a pillar until it disappeared and one Uzumaki Naruto stepped out. He looked over to Asuma and Kurenai before eye-smiling and saying in his harmonious vocals, "Asuma-san and Kurenai-san, it is a pleasure to meet the both of you. I do hope we might be able to talk at a later date." He then stepped inside the classroom just as Iruka called, "Squad Seven: Haruno Sakura, Uchiha Sasuke, and Uzumaki Naruto. Jounin Sensei: Hatake Kakashi." Sasuke was seething inside as he thought, 'Damn, I got the dobe and the rabid fan girl, Pinky.' Sakura was thinking more along these lines of, 'Cha! Love conquers all Ino-Pig!' Naruto on the other hand lifted one hand and said from the door way with an eye smile, "Sorry I'm late, I happened to get lost on the road of life."
At this everyone, including Asuma and Kurenai, face faulted anime style while Naruto stood there and rubbed the back of his head, all the while he was still wearing that eye-smile. Iruka was the first to recover, "Um...who are you?" Naruto stopped only to fake hurt as he held a hand to his heart and said, "I'm hurt that you don't recognize me Iruka-sensei." Iruka and most of the class' eyes nearly popped out of the head as they screamed at once, "NARUTO?" Naruto, with his enhanced hearing, nearly went death because of this. "Yes yes, now stop being so damn troublesome. I am going to go to sleep and wait for Kakashi-sensei to arrive." With that, he walked up the stairs and sat down in the empty seat beside Shikamaru. Laying his head on the desk, he closed his eyes and commenced to the task he had assigned himself.
Everyone sweatdropped at Naruto actions before Shikamaru looked up at the ceiling and thought, 'I wonder if he has Nara blood in him...better ask dad.' After getting over the shock, Iruka finished calling out the teams and then Kurenai and Asuma came in and grabbed their teams leaving Sakura, Sasuke, and a sleeping Naruto. After an three hours of waiting, Naruto was awakened to the sound of a screaming banshee. Lifting his head up, he looked to see Kakashi in the doorway. "My first impression of you guys is...I hate you. Now meet me on the roof." He then disappeared in a poof of smoke. A sigh escaped Naruto's lips as he watched the other two head out the door without even giving him a second thought. Jumping out the window, he flipped onto the wall and stood up. Walking up the wall, he snuck up behind Kakashi and whispered in the jounin's ear, "You shouldn't read Icha Icha around children Kaka-sensei."
Kakashi nearly jumped out of his skin when he heard felt the breath of someone right beside his ear. He turned to see his blond gaki sitting on the bar next to him, waiting for his teammates to arrive. "What the hell? How did you get up here?" Naruto pointed to the wall and then his feet making Kakashi's eye go the size of a dinner plate. Just then Sakura and Sasuke came through the door. Sasuke immediately glared at Naruto and said, "Dobe, how did you get here?" Naruto shrugged his shoulders and then said, "Walked." Slipping off the rail, he sat down beside his teammates, but sighed when they scooted away from him,
Kakashi frowned at what he was seeing, though one couldn't tell because of the mask he was wearing. 'Seems the blond is the outcast...' Taking a deep breathe he said, "Okay, how about you introduce yourselves." Sakura raised her hand and asked, "Sensei, could you go first?" Kakashi shrugged his shoulders before saying, "I'm Hatake Kakashi, my likes and dislikes are none of your concern, my hobbies I don't want to say, and my dream for the future...you are too young to understand. Now Pinky, why don't you go next." Sasuke and Sakura both thought, 'Great, we learned his name...' Naruto on the other hand was snickering.
Sakura growled at the nickname before breathing in and saying, "I am Haruno Sakura, my likes...well the person I like..." Looks over at Sasuke and blushes. "Hobbies are..." Looks over to Sasuke and blushes again. "And my dream for the future is..." Looks at Sasuke again before becoming Hinata red and squealing. Kakashi sweatdropped before saying, "And your dislikes?" Sakura instantly stopped and said, "Ino-Pig and Naruto-Baka." Everyone sweatdropped at this but Naruto said nothing to defend himself.
Kakashi's Thoughts - 'A fan girl...'
Sasuke's Thoughts - 'Save me!'
Naruto's Thoughts – 'Surprise, surprise...'
"Okay broody, your up." Kakashi said as he pointed as Sasuke. Sasuke on the other hand sent Kakashi one of the famous Uchiha glares before saying, "My name...( damn dramatic pause!) is Uchiha Sasuke. I don't like anything and I dislike a lot of things. My hobbies are training to become stronger. My dream...well my ambition is to restore my clan and also kill a certain man."
Kakashi's Thoughts- 'Just as I thought.'
Sakura's Thoughts- 'Sasuke's so cool!'
Naruto's Thoughts- 'Same old Avenger shit.'
"Blondie, you are up." Kakashi pointed at him and waited. Standing up, Naruto shrugged his shoulders and then said as he let his eyes drift to the sky, "Uzumaki Naruto is my name, my likes are those who are precious to me, my wondrous new weapons, the clouds, reading, and sleeping. My dislikes are the cycle of hatred that keeps going round and round, people hurting my precious people, people who don't know the difference between a cell and it's tenant, and people who disrupt my naps. Hobbies include training, reading, sleeping, cleaning, and cooking. Dream for the future is to ensure ensure the safety of Konohagakure, end the cycle of hatred, and maybe if there is time then become Hokage after I earn the citizens of Konohagakure's respect and trust."
Kakashi's Thoughts - 'I am never reading reports again...they are totally off about this kid! I spent all fucking night reading his file too.'
Sasuke's Thoughts – 'Huh? What does the Dobe mean...'
Sakura's Thoughts – 'SASUKE-KUN, I LOVE YOU!'
Kakashi looked at the group and said, "Okay, now that we have finished introductions I would like for you all to meet me at Training Ground Seven tomorrow at 5:00 in the morning for a survival test. Oh, and don't eat breakfast or you will puke. You are all dismissed." Sakura raised her hand though and asked, "But sensei, aren't we already genin?" Kakashi looked at the girl and shook his head saying," out of all the candidates only nine will pass. The others will be sent back for another year in the academy." Kakashi then shunshined away leaving two panicking genin and one tired one. A sigh escaped Naruto's lips as he leaned back and closed his eyes. Hearing the footsteps of Sasuke and Sakura leaving him, he called out, "If you are a proper ninja then you see past our sensei's trick and look underneath the underneath." With that his body sank into the shadow, leaving a shock Sakura and seething Sasuke.
