Secret under the gloves

Hey! MovesLikeYaegar here! Aka MLY for… unknown reasons, but I am here with a redo of the first version. It, I hope, will have better grammar longer chapters and more believable secrets.

There WILL BE NO PAIRINGS. I was a naruhina fan before naruhina became a good idea! But no pairings, I personally feel like it drives away people and only entertains but a section of people, while driving away others. It's good for romance fics buut that's about it.

I don't own Naruto. The very thought is kinda silly. However if someone from the story-plot makers sees this than he may be inspired :p

(Naruto's POV)

I am Naruto Uzumaki, pariah of the village and the greatest ninja ever! … Well, you can wish. I like to show my bizarre loud mouth side of myself to cover up my stronger side, (the stereotype is real) but I can't help but be tempted sometimes, SOME times to show off. There's no reason to gloat over who can kill better, I just wished that they wouldn't make me look so… stupid.

(Normal POV, [it wont happen much I promise])

Naruto was the dead-last, loser of the academy and was being taught the ways of the ninja, or shinobi. He lived in a ninja village, one of the greatest, if not THE greatest village, Konoha.

In the academy Naruto was primarily known as dead last, but smarter people could see passed it and considered him a wildcard. Known for being the only one who 1 shot KO'd a poor kid named Choji, a rather *ahem* beefy person, with his fist in Taijutsu class. Speaking of said fist he always wore gloves. Chakra gloves, though no one knew where he got the money, seeing as it was not only one of the rarest fabrics known to the human kind, it allowed advanced and increased chakra molding through them.

He didn't mind people asking to know what was under them or why he had them, but when they held something above him like ranks, titles, or even blackmailing him, (Seriously though, he never did piss himself, and it was the water he spilled!) He would glare at them in the way that did not pronounce Naruto at all.

He was friendly with only a small group within the academy that consisted of Shikimaru Nara, Choji Akimichi, Shino Aburame, and Kiba Inuzuka (Depending if they were getting competitive with each other.)

They were his friends and if harm befell upon them he, though vowing to only do necessary killing, would kill without hesitation.

It was graduation day, the day Naruto could only hope for the best. Names were called like it was a jail sentence, mono-like and bored. For once in his life he was glad he had Uzumaki as a last name, because it stalled the calling until he was the last there, no one to laugh at him or mock him. He shook his head, HE WOULD DO

THI—

"Naruto Uzumaki"

Gulp

The written and Taijutsu portion was taken with other classmates, it was the Ninjutsu portion that he was brought up for. His replacement jutsu was flawless, transformation jutsu needed a little work but it was the clone jutsu that took the cake. (Or pie?)

Naruto breathed in, giving himself a moment to clear his head. He did the hand signs with practiced ease.

"Clone jutsu!"

-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-

Naruto let out air that he didn't even know he was holding. He was very glad that he passed, if not slightly. His clones were pale, barely functioning but he did it. He had the headband he had always desire, no asking from Iruka anymore, he guessed.

Iruka watched him leave with a proud smile. It was the first in years in ages since an entire class had graduated.

Hmmm Thought Iruka, I still need to get that 200 ryo from Mizuki…

-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-x-

Naruto sighed; he had a week off until they announced the teams, and until then he got very… bored. He had decided to ponder on what his hands could do. He had gotten a random seal there that couldn't be scraped off, even if the skin was torn off. It had been about a year now, and he didn't know what it was—or why it was there. They seemed to have no purpose besides giving people easily induced concussions. Naruto took off his gloves, then tried channeling chakra into it but too no avail. His fist usually hardens into crystal if he needs it to be. He got frustrated and tried again, this time pushing a load more chakra, into his fist.

He got nothing, at first, but soon after he noticed the seal on his hand activated. He panicked, Naruto He'd never expected a reaction; usually pumping chakra into things ruins them. But soon curiosity took over he tried making hand signs.

Nothing.

He tried pushing more chakra into it.

Nothing.

He waved his arms around like an idiot.

Nothing. He didn't think that would work but still

(He swore he became more and more like his mask)

Then he tried pushing chakra out of his fingers.

The results did not wait, Immediately Crystals formed around his fingers and beyond. Surprised Naruto stopped the chakra flow.

The crystals had stopped growing and hardened into place.

When he tried breaking the crystals off it snapped off under a lot of force. They were clear too an extent but definitely pretty.

Naruto grinned "so THAT'S what the seal does."

Hey! Sorry if you considered the chapter short, I had originally planned for it too be longer but you may have been able to tell it's still pretty short. I will have a Rant Box that I will talk about things in the FF community that I don't like. I'm not going to lie I like a good argument

Please rate and review, I need motivation because… because. Criticism is allowed and probably necessary.

{RAAAAAAAAAAAANT BOOOXXX}

BEFORE I START, it will not affect the story at all! This nor any other rant box should. No bashing off course.

Ok, so now I'm going to talk about one of the things that upset me the most. It's everywhere and it destroys fanfics, but it's the Harem.

I know many girls who are offended about sharing a man. And if you know Tenten or Kurenai they get easily offended by the stereotypical view of women (basically known as meat, dolls, weak etc.)

Now I'm not saying every girl cares or what not, and I don't care if there is a reviewer who says it, but honestly the chances of Naruto getting multiple girls like Tenten is kiiinnda silly. Also most of fanfics like harems are written by horny men! Sooo

MLY out!
