Gakuen Alice: Naruto!
I do not own Gakuen Alice or Naruto. They belong to Tachibana Higuchi and Masashi Kishimoto respectively. I only own this idea.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(October 10th, 120 years after Village Creation. AKA, "VC")
Konohagakure, the village hidden in the leaves. A village filled with Ninjas, people trained to protect their village and raise money for it by doing missions. This place shows many different faces, lives, and adventures, a village loved by most that dwell within it. But for two particular people, this place is absolutely horrible, a complete hell.
The first is a male. Uzumaki Naruto, ten years old.
His physical characteristics are sunny golden spiky hair, un-naturally deep, cerulean eyes, and strangely enough, three lines across each cheek, six in total. He assumed these marks were either birthmarks, or scars from one of the many attempts on his life. This young boy, Uzumaki Naruto, is considered by most, as a Demon, a Monster, a Hell-spawn. Many times has he found himself hiding under, in, or around miscellaneous objects, such as a couch someone tossed out. It was actually a pretty good couch, so Naruto kept it.
The reason the people of the village hate him so much, is for one major reason. He is the human container for the Kyuubi no Yoko, the Jinchuuriki. As he is the jail for the same creature that ravaged their village ten years ago, most despise his very existence, loathing his very life force.
He always wondered why he was always hurt, attacked, and feared. He wanted to know why everyone hid their children whenever he entered their vision. Although, after a while, he stopped caring, too busy trying to survive.
The second person is a female, Hinata, nine years old, ten in two months.
Her physical characteristics are raven blue short hair, strangely pale white eyes, and a shy demeanor. She was once the heiress to the Hyuuga clan due to being the first born, but was disowned after she was defeated by her younger sister by three years in a spar two years ago. She was stripped of her name, her Hyuuga crest, and kicked out of the Clan Compound and wasn't allowed back.
She is hated because of her connection to Naruto. She became friends with the young boy after she got thrown out of the clan.
(Flashback: Two Years)
She was walking through the streets, cold in the October winds, not even a day after she got kicked out, when she saw him hiding behind a baker sign, she could only see his hair, but she know it was a person, so she stayed to watch. She had thought she had seen the strange, bright hair before but couldn't remember where. He was obviously thinking of stealing some bread, but hadn't got the chance. The store closed for the day after he was spotted by the owner, getting a very sharp glare all the while. Hinata, of course, thought this was extremely strange behavior, not only because of the glare, but because it was only six in the afternoon, the sun just barely hinting at it's eventual disappearance. She spent nearly eight years in a very sheltered space, so she didn't fully understand the happenings in the village except for when she and her father, well Ex-father now, walked through it on the way to the Hokage's office.
She was shocked when she saw Naruto come from behind the sign, baggy clothes torn here and there, skin and body covered with dirt and what looked like bruises. Usually she wouldn't approach anybody on her own, but she was worried about this boy.
She suddenly remembered where she had seen his hair before after seeing his face. She had seen Naruto in the Ninja Academy every now and then, but only during breaks. First year students don't have co-ed classes. But she had seen him none the less. Seeing him on the streets, she wondered why his parents weren't around, and why he looked like he hadn't bathed in weeks. There weren't classes during the fall because the amount of ninja missions increased a lot during that time so she hadn't seen him for almost two months. She had slowly walked up to him, thinking about what she would say when she got to him.
Suddenly he looked over at her more than half way to him and locked eyes with her. Shocked by the sudden movement she fell back, almost landing on her back had it not been for him catching her.
"H-hey, you ok Hazure-san? He asked, as he lifted her to her feet. (lit. Miss, can also mean failure)
"F-failure?… So you know how pathetic I am too." Hinata said.
What she said sounding more of a statement than a question.
This thoroughly confused Naruto
"Ah? What do you mean? Isn't 'Hazure-san' 'Miss'"? He asked, looking as confused as he was.
Hinata suddenly looked up at Naruto, crying a bit. Realizing she thought of the wrong meaning, she looked back down.
"G-gomennesai, Sumimasen. (I apologize, please excuse me) I didn't recognize which meaning you were using." She seemed to get even more depressed, so Naruto decided to try and cheer her up.
"Ah, ah, no worries, I don't mind, I get mixed up a lot anyway, I learned most of what I know by ear and guessing haha!"
This seemed to work a bit, getting a bit of a laugh.
"There ya go, feel any better?"
He really hoped she did, he wasn't very used to cheering others up, only himself.
His efforts paid off.
"Y-yes, I'm fine, Arigato… Ano… What are you doing… on the streets? I-I've seen you in the academy a few times, but…" Hinata asked, not completely finishing.
Naruto got the look he had when the bread store closed again.
"Well… I don't have any family, Oji-san (More or less "Grandfather") pays for school, but I don't get to see him much… It's almost like he avoids me."
"Oji-san?" It was Hinata's time to be confused, he just said he didn't have any family.
"Oh… well, he isn't my real Oji-san, I just call him that cause he's old and helps me sometimes. The mean lady at his office calls him the "Hokage"… whatever that is, but I know he's important!" He seemed oddly enthused about the last part.
'Hokage? He doesn't know what the Hokage is? We learned that the second week of school… maybe the boys haven't studied it yet, and what about a mean lady?' Hinata thought, obviously more confused.
"A-ano… The Hokage is the leader of the village, he's the strongest ninja in the village and called "The Professor" by a lot of people… d-didn't the boy's class learn this?"
"Oh, well… I think so, but I got kicked out of class. The teacher said I was… un "Desder"… no "disturbing" everyone else… what ever that word means, besides, I was just looking out the window as some birds…"
Naruto looked like he was thinking pretty hard about what he said, cause he had a confused look on his face.
"Ano, "Disturbed" means b-bothering or annoying others…" Hinata was almost dumbfounded by the lack of formal education this boy had.
"Really? Cool! Thanks for telling me that!" The blonde's smile was addicting, so Hinata smiled back.
Hinata decided to ask another question that was bothering her.
"W-what do you mean by the "mean lady" at Hokage-Sama's office?"
"Oh, well, she always yells at me whenever I ask if Oji-san is there, she even threatened to call the ANBU once, so I left."
Hinata seemed satisfied, if not somewhat bothered, by his answer.
"So, what are you doing here this late, huh…"
"Hyu…" She remembered, she wasn't a Hyuuga anymore. "H-Hinata"
"Ok, Hinata-Chan! I'm Uzumaki Naruto! Yorishiko (Word has no meaning) , Oh, I mean Yoroshiku!" (Nice to meet you)
"A-ah, Yoroshiku, Uzumaki-San."
"Eh? Why are you calling me that?"
"U-Uzumaki-San? I-Isn't it supposed to be like that?"
"Well, no one has ever called me that. It's either been plain old 'Naruto' or what the villagers call me."
'What do the villagers call him?' More stranger thoughts pooled into her mind.
"O-ok.. Naruto-san, what do the villagers call you?"
This question was obviously a bad one.
"I'd… rather not talk about it…" He seemed even worse than before, but suddenly looked ok again.
"Well, what are you doing here so late Hinata-Chan? You seem a bit lost."
Still not used to the suffix, she blushed and answered.
"W-well, I don't really want to…talk about it either."
"Oh, alright, well, we've all got our secrets… say… Hinata-Chan?" He seemed to be able to catch her attention so well for some reason.
"Y-yes Naruto-san?"
"Well, can we… be friends? I was hoping, since we talked for so long, that we could be friends…"
This kind of shocked Hinata, she had never had a real friend before, and here this boy was, asking to be his friend. Of course she'd answer right away.
"I-I'd love to!"
She almost shouted her conformation.
"Great! I finally have a friend! Yahoo!!"
During his happiness, he actually picked her up and spun her around, which not only startled her, but made her blush quite fiercely.
"Well, well, lookie here, it looks like the Oni-Gaki (Demon Brat) has himself a little fuck-buddy doesn't he? Damn monster doesn't see that he's not allowed to."
Naruto quickly put Hinata down and looked towards the sudden voice, seeing three mean looking thugs.
Naruto, getting in front of Hinata as a shield, and as rebellious as ever towards people like these guys, responded with.
"W-what do you want? Piss off!"
This just got the punks riled up.
"What was that Gaki? I dare you to say that again! I'll rip out your throat!"
"I-I said, 'Piss off!', we didn't do anything to you!" Naruto was really intimidated by these guys, but that didn't mean he'd stop.
"Ha, hey Akai (Red, the color), the little shit actually thinks he's innocent! Even after destroying almost half the village and killing hundreds, he still keeps lying about it!"
The man now known as "Akai" responded.
Yeah, well, I didn't expect him to, the Hokage believes it, so of course he'll keep it Kuroi." (Black, the color)"
"Oh, shut it you idiots, let's just kill the Gaki and take the demon-whore." the third man ordered.
"Yeah, yeah, we're on it Chairo!" (Brown, color) They both said, differently of course.
Naruto was really getting worried, he didn't know what to do, so he did whatever his body would let him, he punched at them… Only for it to connect with the Akai guy, and do nothing.
"Ha! You call that a punch ya' brat? Here's a punch!" Akai said as he backhanded Naruto in the head, sending him into a wall.
"Gaah!" Was all Naruto could say as his side made contact with the hard material of the wall.
"Naruto-san!" Hinata shouted, really worried about where this was heading.
"Hehehe, now for the girl, I think I could have fun with her, look at her scared, white eyes, I hear Hyuuga's are great!"
He barely got anywhere near Hinata before something happened. Something downright horrible. The feeling all three men had was just like when the Kyuubi attacked.
Pure. Unbridled. Evil.
"D-don't you dare touch her! If you do… I'll kill you!"
