The Key to the Seal

Chapter 1: Prologue

It was a peaceful, quiet night in the Nami no Kuni. The stars were shining, the waves were crashing, and the crickets were chirping. Off by the shore stood a nearly built bridge. On it sat a spiky, blond haired boy, with blue eyes and three whisker like marks on each side of his face. He was wearing an orange jacket with a red swirl on the back and orange pants with blue sandles.

"So this is you were, Naruto," said behind the now named Naruto.

Naruto eyes widen and looks behind him.

"Oh, it's just you Kakashi-sensei. Don't startle me like that." said Naruto.

Said man just stares blankly at Naruto "You're a ninja Naruto, you should be always ready," said Kakashi. He had gravity defining, silver hair, a mask covering his whole face besides his right eye, and a headband with a leaf symbol covering his left eye. He was wearing a green flack jacket with many pockets and black shinobi pants with blue sandles.

"Yeah, yeah, I know. Ninja must always be ready, just in case an enemy appears behind him."

Kakashi just gives him an eye smile, "Good, at least you remember something from the academy."

"Hey!" yelled Naruto.

Kakashi just chuckles at his outburst, "So what are you doing out here, late at night?"

Naruto looks back at the sea, "Just thinking about these last few days."

"Ah, you remembering about Zabuza and Haku?" asked Kakashi.

"Yeah, and some other things." said Naruto.

Kakashi's quirks his eyebrow. "Oh what else could you be thinking about?"

Naruto stares at the sea for a sec before he replies. "Just about everything that happened at the bridge."

"What do you mean by that?" Kakashi asks.

"I mean that I almost not only lost Sasuke, but I let both Zabuza and Haku die." Naruto looks down at the ocean and tears begin to well up in his eyes, "If only I was stronger, none of this would happen."

Kakashi looks at him for a second before he sighs, "Naruto," said ninja flinches, "you must learn that not all missions will everyone survive, sometimes none of your comrades will die, but then sometimes all of them will die. It's something you have to get used to."

Naruto looks at him before dropping his head down low again, "Yeah, I know, but it's so hard to deal with."

"Don't worry," Kakashi says, "it won't get easier, but as long as you remember them, everything will be fine, and you can move on." He then gives him an eyesmile.

Naruto looks up for a second before smiling, "Thanks Kakashi-sensei, I needed that."

Kakashi just chuckles, "Anytime Naruto, anytime," he says.

The two ninja just stare at the ocean before Naruto sighs.

"What is it this time Naruto?" Kakashi asks.

"Just thinking on how weak I am right now." says Naruto.

"Oh," Kakashi replies, "what do you mean by that?"

"I mean that Sasuke now not only has his Sharigan, but he also has a bunch of Fire jutsu, and Haku had a bunch of Ice jutsu, while I have nothing but just Shadow Clones," says Naruto. "I wish I could a bunch of things like that, so nothing like what happened will ever happen again."

Kakashi just stares at him before sighing again, "Well, you would've probably learned this when your chunin, but I feel like I should teach you now for some reason." He then pulls a piece of paper out.

"What is that Kakashi-sensei?" asks Naruto.

"This, Naruto, is chakra nature paper." said Kakashi, "Here, put some chakra into it."

Naruto grabs the piece of paper and channels chakra into it, effectively splitting it into two. Naruto looks down sadly until Kakashi says something.

"Hmm, this is interesting."

"What do you mean Kakashi-sensei?" asks Naruto.

"What I mean is that you have a Wind affinity, Naruto." Kakashi says, before he sighs, seeing the confused look on Naruto's face. "Ok, Naruto, do you know what the five elements are?"

"Yeah, Fire, Wind, Water, Earth, and Lightning. What does this have to do with the paper splitting in two?"

"What it is that you have the ability to use Wind and its elemental jutsu. Just like how Sasuke can use his Fire jutsus and I can use my Lightning Blade." says Kakashi.

"Oh," says Naruto, "but why is this interesting to you?"

"That's because there is very few Wind users in Konoha since most of them are Fire users, but Wind is also known as the rarest of all the affinities." Kakashi explained.

"Wow," said Naruto amazed by the revelation, "so like I have a really rare affinity right?"

"That's about right," Kakashi said.

"Ha!" Naruto yells and stands all of sudden, "Take that Sasuke, guess you're not the only one special anymore!"

Kakashi just smiles at the whole thing while Naruto rants about how he's coming closer to beating him.

As he begins to settle down, Kakashi just stares and asks "You done yet?"

"Yeah," says Naruto, who is panting heavily right now and begins to take a deep breath. "I just can't wait to be able to use all the Wind techniques now." he says while smiling widely.

"Well, you can't learn any techniques yet," Kakashi says. Naruto looks at him questioningly and was about to ask before Kakashi explains, "First, you have to learn master it first, but to do that, you need lots of Chakra Control. I suggest starting after you learn to Water Walk."

"Water Walk? What's that?" Naruto asks while he tilts his head.

Kakashi just sweatdrops. 'Does he really not know what that is? The name says it all.' "Well, its just like how the name says, it's the ability to walk on water."

Naruto just looks up surprised, "Oh, that makes sense. When can I learn, Kakashi-sensei?" Naruto says while looking at him.

"Well, after this mission, I will teach you, Sasuke, and Sakura when we get back to Konoha. But, I won't teach you guys much, since it's pretty much like Tree Walking, so I guess you can start anytime really."

Naruto just smiles. "Thanks, Kakashi-sensei." Naruto looks down at the ocean all of sudden sadly.

Kakashi notices this and begins to ask, "What's the matter now, you seem to have a far away look on your face."

Naruto stares for a few seconds before replying, "I don't know how to explain it, but I feel like this will be the last time I will ever be able to see you again. I just don't know why, but I have this gut feeling going on." He looks to Kakashi's eyes with worry in his. "What should I do?"

Kakashi looks for a few seconds before looking at the ocean. "Nothing, really, since we really don't know if it will happen or not."

Naruto just stares before asking, "But what if I do go away, and never see you, Sasuke, Sakura, Jiji or anyone else?"

"Then just live your life there. If you go away to somewhere far away, try coming back home, but if you can't, then just live life there and enjoy yourself. Just as long as you remember who you are, and who we are, then you will have no problems."

"But how what happens if I forget who you guys are, then what?" Naruto asks, with desperation in his voice.

"You won't forget us Naruto." Kakashi replies smoothly.

"How do you know?" Naruto asks.

Kakashi turns to him, "Just as long as we are in your heart, you will never forget us. The same goes for us too." Kakashi then smiles at him, "So don't worry because you will always be with us, and we will always be with you."

Naruto just stares for a few seconds and then smiles brightly and begins to chuckle. "Hehe. You're right, I may be gone forever, but that doesn't mean I'll ever forget you guys." He then turns to Kakashi, and smiles. "Thanks Kakashi-sensei, I don't know why I started to worry like that."

Kakashi just smiles back, "Anytime Naruto, anytime."

The two then begins to stare at the ocean for a few minutes, before Kakashi gets up. "Well, I think it's about time we go back. Come on Naruto let's go."

Naruto looks at him for a second before looking back at the ocean and replying, "Nah, I think I'll just be out here for a few minutes more."

Kakashi stares before asking "You sure?" Naruto nods his head at him, before he sighs, "Fine, come in whenever you want. Ok." says Kakashi.

Naruto nods his head "Don't worry Kakashi-sensei. If anything happens, I can take care of it myself."

Kakashi just nods his head before he starts to walk away to the house.

Naruto just stares at him for a few seconds before he goes back to watching the ocean, before sighing. "Man, I really can't get that feeling out of me already." he mumbles to himself. 'Why do I feel this way even? I mean, if I do leave, where will I go even?' he thinks to himself. After a few minutes of silence, before a voice appears behind him.

"So this is where the Sealer lives," says a mysterious voice.

Naruto surprised, turns to see a man in a black cloak, covering everything, even his face.

Naruto jumps up and pulls out a kunai before questioning him. "Who are you?"

The mysterious voice starts to look around before saying, "To think that the Sealer lives in a world that is so small. You have yet to even open the power you hold."

Naruto lifts his kunai up more before asking him, "What do you mean by 'My power'?"

The mysterious voice looks at him before turning "In due time you will learn, but for now, can you handle the power you hold?"

Naruto, getting angry yells to him "I don't know what the hell you're talking about, but any power I'm holding, I can handle perfectly."

When he sees man gone, he turns to the ocean again. 'Who was he, and why did he sound like he knew me. What was he talking about though with 'My power', and if I can handle it? He thinks to himself. 'Whatever, it's getting late. I should be heading back now.' With that, Naruto starts to leave.

Naruto is walking along an empty road, with all the shops doors locked and closed, showing all the stores are closed. As he walking, he sees a familiar black cloak turned around on him. Realizing it's the man from before, he runs up and pulls a kunai. At this, the man turns around to see Naruto with a kunai out, ready to defend if he has to.

"What are you doing here still?" Naruto growls out.

The man looks at him for a second before pointing behind him. As Naruto looks to see, he sees that the bridge looks is on fire.

Naruto, wide eyed, starts to run towards it. Not even glancing that the man has left following him.

As Naruto is running, he runs into the hooded figure.

"What are you doing? Get out of the way!" he yells

The hooded figure stares, until he begins to speak, "The door is opened."

Naruto, confused looks at him questioningly before asking "Door? What door are you talking about?" as he pulls out the kunai to defend.

"You will begin on your adventure. Just remember, you hold the seal to the world." he says before he disappears.

Naruto looks confused before shrugging. "That was weird, but whatever, I have to put out that fire," he says to himself.

At the same time though, something moving along the ground starts moving to Naruto. As it got closer, we see a black like monster appear. It has two antennas, with three fingers that look like claws, and a round head with bright yellow eyes. Once it reached Naruto, it jumped up and slashed him from behind.

"Argh!" Naruto yells as he stumbles before he gains his balance. He looks around to see the monster, and was about to charge before he looks around and found that he is surrounded by the same monster.

"Shit," is the last thing he can say.

AN: Well, there is my first chapter of The Key to the Seal. Short chapter, I know, but that may be most of them, but I don't know yet. I will be trying to post more chapters soon, so don't worry. Please review and no flames please.
