Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto
Chapter 1
THUD!!
CRACK!!
OTHER SOUND EFFECTS THAT IMPLY SOMEONE FALLING OUT OF A TREE!!
"Damn it why can't I do this?!" Yells our favorite blond ninja along with other curses I dare not say for my Mormon faith will not allow me to repeat. For those of you who are wondering why our hero has decided to put his potty mouth to work is because for the past straight 8 hours he has been trying to do the tree climbing exercise that Kakashi-sensei had showed them earlier since he was still too tired from chakra exhaustion due to his fight with Zabuza to teach them anything else. Okay so maybe this was not a totally useless exercise since it did help with chakra control and it ah yes allows you to walk up objects at a 90 degree angle. But I digress.
To add to his frustrations, he is the last one on his team to have completed this exercise. Though, it does make since that he is having so much trouble since he has a near limitless amount of chakra that he has to control thanks to a certain fuzz ball sealed away in his stomach. But again I digress.
"That's because you're doin it wrong." Yells a masculine voice from the woods Naruto is currently standing in.
Our hero quickly grabs a kunai from his pouch and takes a defensive stance. "Whose there? Show yourself."
A man who stands about 6 feet tall and looks to be about 200 pounds by the looks of his muscles and appears to be in his late 20's or possibly his early 30's. His hair is long and untamed with a dark crimson color. On closer inspection the man was in need of a shave and possibly some sleep. The man wore white sleeveless t-shirt with the shoulders colored in a dark navy with dark navy pants and navy sandals and on his exposed arms appeared many marks that could be tattoos. "I said you're doin it wrong." Repeated the man.
"Oh yeah well what the hell would you know?!" Yelled back the blond crossing his arms and pouting.
The man only grunted in response and continued to walk towards the tree and when he finally reached it and started to walk straight up it until he reached the top and finally walked down it.
"Yeah, what the hell do I know?" Mocked the man.
To say that our hero was shocked is an understatement seeing as how his jaw has pretty much hit the ground. After the boy finally composed himself he responds. "I didn't think that there were any ninja in this country."
"You don't have to be a ninja in order to know how to do that kid" Grunted the man.
"What do you mean old man I thought only ninja used chakra?" Asked our favorite annoying blond.
The man, whose eye is twitching by now due to the fact of being called an old man, responds with a hint of anger. "Of course not, what are you stupid?"
Naruto, who by now has a tick mark on his head due to the fact of being called stupid, yells back… angrily. "I am not stupid old man."
"Yeah and I'm not an old man brat. Kami, I don't have time for this. See you around kid." Says the man as he starts to walk away.
"Wait!" starts our to-be hero. "Do you think that you could help me out with this since you seem to really good at it?"
The man looked at the kid and started to think. "Man I really do not want to have to teach someone right now. All I want to do is get some sleep. But, I can tell he has been at this for hours by the looks of him. I mean his cloths are torn and he is pretty scraped up. Also the look in this kids eyes is reminds me of someone I just can't put my finger on it. Also I do know why this kid is having so much trouble; I mean who can't feel all the chakra this kid has. I mean I've never met anyone with as much as this kid, its amazing."
"Okay, kid since you asked nicely I'll help you and I think I know what your problem is. States the man.
The boy in response to this gives his signature fox grin which only causes the man to smile as well. "Now, understand that even though I know what the problem is it is still going to take some time, so patience is going to be the key do you understand?" asked the man.
To this Naruto gave a serious look and nodded.
3 hours of montage later.
It had taken a very very very long time but the kid finally has this down. Hell the kid can walk up, down and upside down. So, all in all very good progress and the kid did not complain once during the whole ordeal. "If the kid didn't all ready belong to Konoha the man would probably consider taking him on as an apprentice. The kid had a determination one rarely sees in life." He could tell the kid was destined for great things.
But the kid would never be his apprentice so, he congratulated the kid was about to walk away when it hit him that he never even got the kid's name.
"Hey kid the name is Kazuma what about you?" Asked the man now known as Kazuma.
"Oh right, my name is UZAMAKI NARUTO you better remember it because it is the name of the next Hokage believe it!" replied the Hokage-hopefull as he ran off back towards Tazuna's house.
Kazuma could only look at where the boy once stood in shock. "Uza-Maki… How can this be? There wasn't anyone in the clan that was going to head to Konoha… wait a minute… could he be?" thought Kazuma and then says to no one. "Kushina-neesan, you had a son."
