Naruto belongs to Kishimoto.
:(
This is my first Naruto Fanfiction! Yay... My grammar is passable... Hopefully.
Naruto will be pretty strong for his age, but that's just because he's got Kakashi as his dad and many mentors. He won't be a godlike S-rank ninja at the age of 14 or anything.
Naruto's early life is going to be briefly explained in this chapter. I wasn't going to do it, but I felt like I needed to add some more character bonding with my plan.
LINE BREAK
"... Fuck", said Hiruzen. It was rare for the Sandaime to swear, but after the events of tonight, it was hard not to. His successor, Minato Namikaze the Yondaime had just sealed away the Kyuubi into his own son but died in the process while trying to protect his newborn along side with his wife, Kushina Uzumaki.
Jiraiya, Hiruzen, and Kakashi were all sitting in the Hokage office, little Naruto squealing happily without a clue of what had just happened to his biological parents.
"He's really gone, isn't he.", said Jiraiya with a choked voice. His beloved student that he considered his son had died just as he was starting a family. As an orphan, that was one of Minato's goal, but it seemed like it was one that he would never achieve.
Kakashi sat with his face in his hands, working on believing that the last precious person in his life was gone. His father, Obito, Rin, and now Minato were all dead, and he was left alone in this world.
Kakashi raised his head slowly and looked at the child who was in Jiraiya's arms, tugging at Jiraiya's hair.
"Is that his son?", asked Kakashi.
"Yes", replied Hiruzen, "And the third container of the Kyuubi. The last wish of Minato was that he would be seen as a hero, but unfortunately, if the word spreads he will most likely be shunned by the community as much as I hate to admit it. Jinchurikis have never been treated normally and face an incredible amount of prejudice because of what they contain. With the wounds of the night fresh in their minds, the people of the leaf village will most likely refuse to believe that he is just a child with the exception of a select few."
Kakashi nodded and frowned as he looked at the child. He had nothing against him, in fact he was worried that his sensei's son would have to face such a hard life. He didn't deserve it.
"So, what's going to happen to him then?", asked Kakashi.
"Well... He'll have to be sent to an orphange. Jiraiya is just too busy with his spy network and I am too old to take care of the child.", said the Sandaime.
Kakashi lifted his gloved hand and started stroking the small amount of hair in Naruto's head. Naruto smiled widely and squeled in approval; Kakashi couldn't help but smile.
"...Then I'll take care of him. The orphanage would never take good care of him, and the least I can do to repay Minato-sensei is to take care of his child."
Jiraiya and Hiruzen's eyes widened at Kakashi's statement. "You can't be serious kid, you're just 15 years old!", said Jiraiya.
Kakashi sighed. "I know, but since no one is going to take care of him, I will."
"Kakashi, you must take in everything to account. You'll have to buy baby products and have someone take care of him while you're on missions. The responsibilities are quite tiring, and I can tell you that from experience. Are you sure about this?", asked Hiruzen.
"Yes. Nothing will change my mind at this point. I can use some of my family's savings to help me raise him if I had to. My father did leave behind quite a bit of money before he died. I can also have Anko or Gai look after him for a bit while I'm gone.", said Kakashi.
Hiruzen took notice that Kakashi had determination in his eyes and rubbed his forehead to relieve the headache that was developing. "Alright Kakashi, if you insist, I am in no position to decline. If you ever need any help, make sure you come to me for advice."
"Thank you, Hokage-sama.", said Kakashi, taking little Naruto from Jiraiya's arms.
"That's one problem solved. Jiraiya, come with me. We have a council to deal with..."
4 years later, Naruto age: 4
Kakashi collapsed into his sofa, the exhaustion from the day before finally catching up to him.
Running a hand through his gravity defying silver hair, he noticed from the corner of his uncovered eye that a little blonde was waddling up towards him with a fox plushy tucked under his right arm.
"Sup, daddy!", said Naruto, smiling under his mask and giving Kakashi his own version of Kakashi's eye smile.
Kakashi smiled and hugged Naruto as he crawled up next to him.
Kakashi had already put a err... 2 masks on Naruto ever since he was old enough to walk for two reasons. 1: No one could see those adorable whisker marks unless they were special to him and 2: It gave Naruto and Kakashi some sort of a resemblance.
"Hey, Naruto, whaddave you been doing for the past 2 days I was gone? I hope you haven't been too naughty.", said Kakashi in a tired voice.
Naruto jumped up and slammed his weight into Kakashi's stomach, making Kakashi choke as wind was knocked out of him.
"'Course not, daddy! Shisui came over and took care of me just as you asked! He's really cool and I want to be a super ninja just like him!", said Naruto.
Kakashi, who had regained his bored and tired mood asked "If Shisui's a super ninja, then what am I, Naruto?"
Naruto tilted his head in a very cute way, making Kakashi smile under his mask. "Hmm a super duper ninja!"
"Well, you're already starting to train a little bit, so I'm sure you'll be a super duper ninja in no time, Naruto."
CRASH
Kakashi instantly sat up from his seat, putting a protective hand over Naruto and looking around to see if he could spot the intruder.
"Stay here, Naruto", he said "I'll be right back to deal with whoever bro-"
"WASSUP, NARUTO! I Think I MIGHT HAVE BROKEN YOUR DOOR!", shouted a loud but obviously female voice.
Kakashi and Naruto sweat dropped, instantly recognising the voice. "Anko... Save your destructive power for later in the T&I Department, thank you very much.", said Kakashi.
"Well, I'm sorry, but you asked me to look after Naruto if you weren't back by today, and you know I hate kids, especially the blond brat in your arms right there!", said Anko
"... Thanks for coming, but I'm back today so I can take care of him now.", said Kakashi.
"Your welcome! And feel free to not ask me again!", said Anko, jumping out the window.
"Psh, Sadistic Snake Lady's annoying", said Naruto.
Kakashi, who had just used the last of his energy could not reply, but was only able to squueze out 3 words. "Good night, Naruto."
Kakashi fell asleep, Naruto joining him shortly after.
1 year later
Naruto jumped from tree to tree, throwing kunai with deadly accuracy at the targets. He felt much slower than usual because of the weights that were given to him by a certain green freak. With 3 kunai left, he threw them all at once and landed right in front of a man who was training him.
Naruto had met Shisui when Shisui was training where he usually trained, and saw that Shisui was very good. Naruto asked if Shisui could give him some pointers, and after a few more meeting, Shisui and Naruto regularly trained together.
"You're really good for your age, Naruto", said the man, looking around with glee at the kunai that dug in deep into the bulls eye of the targets and extending a hand to help Naruto to get back on his feet.
Naruto took the hand and stood up, readjusting his scarf and said "Not as good as you, Shisui."
Shisui chuckled softly and gave him a light pat on the back. "Well of course I am, I've got more than a decade of experience than you, but you're better than I was when I was a few years older than you!"
Naruto gave Shisui an eye smile and sat down. "I hope that one day, there won't be fighting anymore."
Shisui sat down next to Naruto and held his fist out for a fistbump. "Yap, and I can second that."
Naruto fist-bumped Shisui and pulled out some shuriken to practise his accuracy. "So, can you teach me a little bit more about chakra?", asked Naruto.
"Of course I can, Chakra is the energy that gives a ninja their power! It's an energy field created by all living things, merged by their physical strength. It surrounds us, penetrates us, and binds the world together.", said Shisui.
"That's a pretty good description, I suppose. Thanks obi w- I mean Shisui.", said Naruto.
"Speaking of which, do you know your natural affinity?", asked Shisui.
"... No?", said Naruto, tilting his head in a confused manner.
"That's fine", said Shisui, ruffling up Naruto's hair. "I guess we can find out know, since you have decent chakra control. There are five different natural affinities of chakra. Wind, Earth, Water, Fire, and Lightning. They all have different properties that give a ninja an advantage or a disadvantage, depending on which one."
"Alright, I'm following so far... How do you figure out what type you have?", asked Naruto.
"Pretty simple, all you have to do is just push some chakra into special chakra paper and see how it reacts", said a familiar voice from behind.
"Sup, dad!", said Naruto.
Kakashi was sitting on a tree branch, listening to their conversation. "I suppose it wouldn't hurt to know your affinity or affinities."
"Wait, affinities? You can have more than one?", asked Naruto.
"Yes, it is quite rare to be born with two, but it is certainly more than possible.", said Kakashi. 'Also likely for you since Minato-sensei had Wind and Lightning for his affinities and Kushina-san had Fire...'
"I got some chakra paper right here, Kakashi-senpai", said Shisui.
"Hmm. Thanks Shisui", said Kakashi, taking the paper that he handed to him.
"What affinities do you have, dad? Shisui?", asked Naruto.
Kakashi took a paper and held it between two fingers and pushed some chakra through it. The paper crinkled, showing that he had a lightning affinity. "I have a lightning affinity, but I've trained myself to be able to use different affinities. Through training, you can learn new techniques of different affinities that you don't naturally have. However, your natural affinity will always be the strongest."
Shisui pulled out a sheet of paper for himself and pushed some chakra through it. The paper cut in half before the halves burnt. "I have Wind and Fire affinities. I don't use wind that often, so I guess Fire's my main affinity."
"Cool", said Naruto, taking a piece of chakra paper and pushing chakra through it. The paper then split in half, one half burning and the other crinckling.
Shisui and Kakashi's eyes widened, realizing that Naruto had not one, not two, not four, but THREE affinities!
"... Uhh That's... Preetty rare...", said Shisui.
"... Uhh, yeah...", said Kakashi.
"Soo what affinities do I have?", asked Naruto.
'Wow, Naruto inherited all three affinities of his parents! That's really rare... I expected Fire or Lightning or maybe Wind but Fire Wind and Lightning?!', though Kakashi.
'Yup, this kid's going places.', though Shisui.
"...Well, Um, Uh, Ah, Ooh, Bazoom, Shamblebobbledibbledooble Uhhh, Fire, Wind... And Lightning?", said
'Shamblebobbledibbledooble? Nice word... I might use it sometime! But Woah! Three affinities! Awesome!' ,thought Naruto. "Is that a good thing?"
"Yes", said Kakashi and Shisui at the same time.
"Having three affinities is very rare and is a very valuable gift, Naruto. Your jutsu arsenal will be much larger to begin with, and I believe you will be a ninjutsu specialist ninja, having three affinites means that you can use three types of ninjutsu very effectively.", explained Kakashi.
"Great! I'm awesome!", said Naruto.
"Oh boy... This kid is really going places.", said Shisui.
1 year later.
A masked blonde was panting slightly, waiting for his dad to come and pick him up after a long training session with Shisui.
Today, Shisui and Naruto trained at Training Grounds 14, which was right next to a park. Deciding that he had nothing better to do, Naruto went over and started walking around in small laps to cool his body down while keeping himself busy while his dad arrived. He hated being bored, even though he never showed it. In fact, he always looked bored, just like his dad.
As he was walking down the path, Naruto noticed that a few kids were gathered, and some were yelling at each other.
Naruto started to frown as he walked towards them and started to eavesdrop their conversation. One group seemed to be arguing with the other. Naruto also noted that one group was significantly younger and smaller than the other, maybe the same age as he was. The group who had older kids seemed to be around 14 or 15 years old and all 4 had Leaf ninja forehead protectors; they were probably genin of the Leaf village.
The younger group consisted of 3 girls and 2 guys. One guy was... Heavy and was munching on some chips while the other guy had a pineapple hair-cut and looked slightly concerned yet somehow bored at the same time. The three girls looked more scared. One had blond hair, one had blue hair, and the last had pink hair.
'Pink hair? Is that even natural?', Naruto asked himself.
"Hey! Leave her alone!", yelled the blonde girl. Naruto's frown increased as the genin group grabbed the blue haired and pink haired girl's hairs and started tugging on them.
"Look at these, I should do the village a favour and cut them, they're so ugly! Especially the pink one with the massive forehead, who did you get the hair from? Your mom? I bet she's just as ugly as you are with the pink hair and wide forehead."
The pink haired girl started to cry a little bit, and struggled even harder at the thought of having her hair cut off.
"And you, what's wrong with your eyes? I bet you're one of those Hyuga assholes, always thinking they're superior to others. Boys, let's teach these kids a lesson and make sure they don't think any better of themselves."
The heavy kid spoke up next. "Please leave them alone, we're just playing and we accidentally bumped into you."
"Shut it, fatso!", said a genin.
The heavy kid was obviously sensitive when it came to his weight, judging that he was visibly upset. "Don't call me fat! I just have big bones! Why can't you just leave us al-"
"I said, Shut it!", said the genin, slapping the heavy kid across the face, taking him off the ground. The pineapple haired kid rushed to his friend and glared at the genin.
"You're probably fat because your parents are too. I'd hate to meet them, they'd probably cover my entire area of vision with their massive size.", said a genin. The other genins laughed at the remark.
That was more than enough for Naruto to take action. Seriously! What was wrong with these genin? They were suppose to set examples for the next generation, not discourage them! Also, what was wrong with those kids?! They should be defending themselves and at least trying to fight back. They were insulting their parents and all they were doing was asking them to stop being assholes.
Just as a genin was about to punch the heavy kid again, Naruto slammed his foot into the genin and followed it up with a punch in the face.
The kids watched in surprise and relief as Naruto used the momentum of the punch to grab the genin by the neck and slam him into the ground with his weight.
"Who's this kid?", asked a genin.
"Who cares, let's take him down first!"
Naruto dashed to the 2 other genin as they dashed to him. Just as they were about to land a blow on Naruto, Naruto ducked and raised both of his arms to catch the two of them in a powerful closeline, knocking them both out. Naruto then continued to drop kick the last genin and punch him in the face three times, ending his combo with a strong uppercut to his chin. The first genin that Naruto attacked weakily raised his head to see what had happened, only to have a small foot slam into his skull and knock him out as well.
The other kids stared at the masked blond, wondering what age he was and how strong, considering that he had just knocked out 4 ninjas single handedly without even trying that hard.
The blond haired girl spoke up first. "Thank you for putting those bullys in their place. My name's Ino Yaman-"
Naruto spoke up, cutting her speech before she could finish it. "I really don't care. I can't believe any of you couldn't land even a single blow on them after what they said about you and your parents. Says a lot about this generation...", said Naruto in a bored voice and gave the group a cold, blue stare with his eyes.
Naruto turned to leave, leaving a confused group of children behind.
And...
Cut.
