Disclaimer: I do not own Naruto

It was midday when a group of kids awoke in a grassy gnole in the middle of forest. The grass was long and green, they each stood and found a sword next to them.

Kaze stood first, the swordsman of wind. He had brown eyes with a dull grey pupil along with curly brown hair. He wore a dull green shirt with dirty grey stripes along with black ANBU-style pants.

The next to stand was Kasai, the swordsman of fire. He had blonde hair and blue eyes with a fiery red pupil. His shirt was black with the Kanji for fire written in red on the front and back of his shirt.

Third was Raiu, the swordsman of lightning. He had dark brown hair with red eyes with stripes of gold, and light, shocking blue pupil. He wears a dark red robe that goes halfway down his calves, his shirt was yellow with the Kanji for lightning written on the chest.

The fourth to stand was Mizu the swordsman of water, he had short blonde hair with blue eyes, and a dark blue, almost black pupils. He wore an ugly hawaiian style shirt, along with white shorts with the kanji for water inscribed in a light blue on his left pant leg. Along his arms are strange pockets that contain something unknown.

The last to stand was Suton, he had dark brown hair, he was above average height, had a large stature, jet black eyes with a dark brown pupil, he wears a tan jacket with the kanji for earth written down both arms in a dark brown, blue shirt, and a Kunai pouch resting around his waist.

Kaze looked around and asked, "Where are we?"

"I don't know," replied Suton looking down to see a sword, "What's this?" He leaned over and grabbed the sword, as he grabbed it he collapsed to the ground unconscious. He awoke in a dark room covered in star shaped dots. In front of him stood a bear that was semi transparent.

"What are you?" Asked Suton.

"I am the spirit of your sword, Boruda, you have the ability to put chakra through the sword and summon my spirit. If you do there are different things that can be done after chanting the incantation of the sword. Now you must return to your world, good luck."

Suton was confused, "What's the incantation for the sword.

"Only the true master of the sword will know the incantation of the sword, spoke Boruda as Suton slipped into darkness.

Suton woke up in the same gnole, Kasai looked at him, "What happened, you grabbed your sword then collapsed."

"I don't know, I was transported to a strange world where a bear told me that he was living inside of the sword," Suton said while standing up and strapping the sword to his waist.

"Cool," shouted Raiu, "I wanna try." He reached down to grab his sword and when he did he too collapsed and awoke in a strange place.

In front of him stood a wolf, "I am Rakurai, I live within the sword. You may summon me by speaking the incantation that has been passed down for generations. Now, return to your own world and learn the ways of the ninja."

Raiu awoke and stood up, "Well that was strange."

"What?" asked Mizu.

"A wolf told me to learn the ways of the ninja," Raiu strapped his sword to his back.

The other three grabbed their swords and had similar experiences. Kaze's sword contained an eagle named Igurusupido, Mizu's sword contained a snake named Sunekugairu, and Kasai's sword contained a Tiger named Nensho.

After they each retrieved their swords they began to walk a path through the forest that they were unfamiliar with. After walking for a few hours they found a group of kids and a man speaking to all of them.

The five of them approached the group and heard the man who must have been the teacher talk about survival techniques that are vital for them to survive in the wilderness.

As they grew closer to the group they heard a boy shout at the man, "Iruka-sensei, when will we ever need to know how to scavenge for food?"

Iruka looked down and groaned, "Naruto, have you ever stopped to think that a mission could go longer than expected?"

"Not rea-," Naruto was cut off when they heard a rustle in the bushes nearby.

"Alright kids, stay behind me," said Iruka as he grabbed a kunai.

Out of the bushes stepped the group of kids, Iruka lowered his kunai and kneeled down, "What are you kids doing out here?"

Kaze stepped forward, "We don't know where we are, or how we got here."

Iruka stood up, "Well let's take you back to the Hidden Leaf Village."

"Iruka-sensei," spoke up a boy with a blue shirt with a ping pong paddle on the back and black hair, arms crossed.

"Yes Sasuke," replied Iruka.

Sasuke stepped forward, "How do we know that they aren't enemies of the Leaf?"

Iruka stood thinking deeply about the question, "Good question Sasuke, well, there isn't really a sure way of telling whether a person is using a form of transformation jutsu. That's why newcomers in the village are closely watched," Iruka turned back to the kids, "Today's lesson is over, after we get back to the leaf you are all free to go."

The group let out a cheer and began to run towards the Leaf Village, "Wait! Slow down," Iruka yelled at the kids, he turned to the group of five, "Follow me, there's someone I want you to meet."

The group followed Iruka, who was sprinting after his class who had gotten ahead of him. They ran until they got to a huge gate that had no doors, the walls around it were a tan orange color. On the inside of the wall was a small shack occupied by two guards.

One of the guards looked at Iruka, "What did you find this time?"

"A group of kids that I want the Hokage to meet," said Iruka, continuing past towards a large tower near the center of the village. As they walked through they saw people with stands selling their goods and houses placed almost on top of each other. Each of the kids saw something that they thought was strange.

They reached the Hokage's tower and climbed the stairs to the top floor. Iruka knocked on the door of the Hokage's office, on the other side of the door a man told them to enter. They walked through the door, when they were at his desk they noticed that he wore a white robe and white hat with red streaks on each of them. The man turned and lifted his hat to reveal an old wrinkled face.

"Why have you come here Iruka?" asked the man.

"There was a group of kids in the forest, and I wanted to get your opinion on what to do with them," said Iruka bowing his head.

The Hokage looked at the children and spoke, "I am Sarutobi, the third Hokage of the Leaf Village." Each of the kids waved and introduced themselves. Sarutobi turned back to Iruka, "Find them some housing and have them in your class at the academy tomorrow.

Iruka bowed and took the kids out of the Hokage's tower, they walked through the village until they reached some housing units. Iruka took them up a flight of stairs and opened a door at the end of the walkway, "This will be your housing for now, I'll be back tomorrow morning to take you to the Academy."

After Iruka left, the door next to the groups opened and out walked a boy in all orange and a pair of goggles on his forehead.

He turned his head and asked, "Who are you guys?"

Suton replied, "I'm Suton, this is Raiu, Mizu, Kaze, and Kasai. Who are you?"

"I'm Naruto, it's nice to meet you, but I need to get some ramen before I go to bed," said Naruto as he began to walk away.

The group set blankets on the floor and went to sleep.
