in this fic Anko is only 16 when Naruto is in the academy everything else about her is the same. And yes Tenten and Lee are a year younger so they could be in this fic if you don't like it deal with it.

Naruto was walking home from the ninja academy, which had just released for the summer vacation. He was lost in his thoughts and worries. He was worried because he needed to learn a third combat style if he wanted to pass next year because of his horrible ability's with gen-jutsu. Even then he still needed to work on his hand to hand combat skills. Suddenly he was ripped from his thoughts by a scream from a nearby alley. He ran to the mouth of the alley and saw an old man standing over a young girl, about 16. She had long purple hair, she wore a tan trench coat, a fishnet top and a tan skirt. The man stood above her hitting her and screaming obscenity's at her. Naruto looked at the girl and saw her face which was bruised and cut.

Naruto ran up to the man and kicked him in the groin. The man fell to the ground, screaming more obscenity's at him. Naruto grabbed the girls hand and lifted her up.

" come on run!" he screamed kicking the still groaning man in the face. The girl ran with him adding a kick to the stomach on her way out. They ran for a block until the man caught up grabbing Naruto by the back of the neck.

" keep going!" he screamed as the man began to beat him savagely. The girl complied and ran on until she was at least a mile away, than she fell to her knee's lost in thought. Why had the boy helped her. Ever since her sensei had abandoned her all she had received from the villagers was anger and hatred, but this boy had come to her aid. Just as she was thinking this she heard a shuffling coming towards her. She turned her head and saw the blonde. He was battered and bruised with long gashes up and down his arms and face. He fell to the ground and blood flowed onto the ground forming a small puddle.

She walked up next to him and lifted him, she felt she owed him something for helping her. She walked him to her apartment. She placed him on her couch and walked into her nearby bathroom taking a first aid kit from a medicine cabinet. She removed his jacket and bandaged the gashes on his arms and face. Once this was finished she walked into her kitchen and began to cook some of her favorite food, dango.

Naruto woke up to the smell of something delicious. He lifted a hand to his face and felt the soft cotton of gauze. He opened his eyes and looked at his arms which had been bandaged. He looked at the room around him. The walls were a soft purple and the furniture was tan. He stood up and fallowed the smell to a small kitchen. There he saw the girl from earlier sitting with her back to him.

"If you ever want to be Hokage kid you'll need to become better at sneaking around kid. Now sit down, I made the most delicious food ever." she said startling him.

" Awesome ramen!" he screamed leaping into the air.

" What makes you think it's ramen?" she asked with an inquisitive glance.

" You said it's the most delicious food ever, so it must be ramen." he said matter-o-factly.

" No I made dango." she replied.

" so you lied." he retorted.

" Hay I didn't lie. I told the truth. Dango is way better" she responded.

" No way is this dango stuff better than ramen."

" so you never had any?"

" nope never have, I just stuck with ramen."

"well at least freaking try it." she said handing him a stick holding a few of the dumplings. He took it, stared at it questioningly, than ate one of the dumplings, savoring the sweet taste of the sauce and the saltiness of the dumpling.

" damn. That is better than ramen." he said devouring the rest of the dumplings on the stick.

" HAH! told you!" she said handing him a plateful of the skewers. Together they devoured the rest of the dumplings.

They sat across from each other

" hay kid...thanks for saving me earlier. That guy probably would have done worse to me than what he did to you if you hadn't helped me. Why did you help me anyway?" she asked looking down at the ground.

" Because I deal with that crap every day and no one else should have to. Also I wouldn't worry that guy wasn't alone when he was wailing on me he probably had another four or five people with him when he stopped." he said with a sad look on his face. She stared dumbfounded at the way he had nonchalantly talked about being attacked by half a dozen people.

" How often dos this happen to you kid?" she asked worriedly.

" Hmm... probably three, four times a week." he said no more serious than he had previously. She just stared at him, her mouth hanging loosely.

" OK That's it you getting some damn training because apparently you need it." she said pulling out an extra long kunai knife and spinning it on her finger.

" But for gods sake we need to get rid of that damn orange jumpsuit. Wearing that is like hanging a sign from your neck that says "HAY KILL ME PLEASE!" and it's not very attractive to the lady's. And i'm sure that there's a couple of girls in the academy you like." she said with a wink. Naruto blushed deeply.

" well there is Sakura but... hay wait I look awesome in orange what are you talking about!" he screamed.

"Please that pinket bitch who's obsessed with the emo kid? Trust me you should leave that alone. She will just use you when she needs you and abuse and ignore you when she doesn't.{Is it just me or is Anko psychic right there} And also no you really don't look that good." she said laughing when he stared at her dumbfounded.

They left the apartment and bought Naruto some new clothing. " you know I'm serious about training you. You need it to deal with these villagers and if you want to pass the academy. You also may just impress a few girls." she said nudging him in ribs. They laughed and ignored the glares they received from the nearby towns people.

" Awesome I've been wanting to train better but I can never get a chance." he yelled fist pumping. They ended up in a field and began to run. 2 hours later Naruto lying on the ground gasping for air. Anko was standing barely sweating and laughing at the blonde on the ground.

" Better get used to this kid, 'cus your ass is mine for the next three months." she said with a sinister grin on her face. Naruto gulped and began to egret his agreeing to the training. But he stood up and continued to train with Anko.

Two weeks later.

Naruto stood in the forest of death with Anko next to him. Well he wasn't exactly standing but he was hanging upside down from a tree limb while a pack of wild wolves prowled around under him.

"ANKO THIS IS FREAKING INSANE!" Naruto said as Anko slowly sawed at the rope above Naruto.

"Come on Naruto. How are you going to get out? Figure it out or else your wolf bait." Anko said grinning sadisticly. Naruto slowly began thinking and thought of what Anko had been teaching him. The affect of chakra. 'ok uses. Jutsu, um what else some on think. Wait That's it!" Naruto thought as he slowly channeled chakra into his bindings causing the entire rope to unravel. Naruto began to fall and grabbed onto the ledge. Naruto channeled a large amount of chakra into his arms and lifted himself onto the terace Anko had been standing on.

"Anko nee-san. No offense but you are bat shit insane." Naruto said earning a laugh from the sadist.

"Yep. That's pretty much true gaki." Anko said ruffling his hair. The duo laughed and Naruto laid back slowly falling asleep.

"Hay what do you think your doing gaki. We still have the real workout to do. Don't go fallin asleap now." Anko said eliciting a groan from the blonde.

"Add evil to the list of traits you have." Naruto said sitting up.

Three months later

Naruto walked into the academy wearing his new outfit. He wore a long camouflage trench coat, a pair of black pants, and a dark green shirt. His hair was long and grown out and pulled back into a spiky ponytail like his sister he also had long strips of purple in his hair she had done in his sleep. The fact it was against his will made him angry, but he had to admit he looked good. He and Anko had become very close, they had become like siblings and he was really happy to have a family. He walked into the classroom and was very happy at the reactions he got from his classmates. Naruto ignored the seat next to Sakura and sat in the far back. As Iruka walked in he noticed that no eraser or bucket of water had fallen on him.

"Is Naruto here?" he asked. Naruto raised his hand.

"sup Iruka-sensei." he yelled back. The teacher looked at Naruto's hair and simply shook his head not wanting to know. Iruka began a lecture over chakra control,which bored the crap out of Naruto since Anko had taught him about chakra control.

2 weeks later

Iruka had noticed a great advancement in Naruto's skills since the end of the last year of school. His chackra control, nin-jutsu,and tai-jutsu skills were near mid chunin level. But his ken-jutsu skills were extremely lacking, and he knew Naruto needed to learn if he wanted to pass the academy. Iruka read through the student grade list. At the top of the ken-jutsu grade sheet was Tenten. Iruka called Tenten into his office.

"You called iruka-sensei." Tenten asked.

"Yes Tenten thank you. You see I need your help. One of the kids in your class needs to learn ken-jutsu if he wants to pass, and I was curios as to whether you would be willing to tutor him?"

" of course Iruka-sensei I'd love to help. But just out of curiosity, who is it I will be tutoring?" Tenten asked standing up.

"You will be tutoring Naruto Uzumaki, the boy with blonde and purple hair and the camouflage trench coat. He will be meeting you at the training field behind the school for training four days a week." Iruka said shuddering at the thought of Naruto's new choice of style. No doubt caused by his adoptive sister. Tenten nodded and walked out of the classroom.

Naruto sat in the training field, holding the sealing scroll Iruka had given him for his tutoring. It held several sets of shuriken and kunai as well as several other weapons. He waited for several minutes before a girl walked out of the school towards the field. The girl wore a pink shirt and had her hair up in a pair of buns. Naruto walked up to her and the two shook hands.

"So your my tutor?" he asked. She nodded.

"Yep, I'm Tenten. And i'll be teaching you ken-jutsu basics for the next little while." the two sat down and began to write up a training schedule. Once the two of them had gotten a schedule written up she began teaching him basic ways of throwing kunai .

The next day in the field she began teaching him with shuriken. She slowly understood that, while Naruto was a bit slow on the pick up, once he did begin to understand something he didn't take long to learn what was left of the lesson. Naruto threw the shuriken, I flew wildly.

"Damnit!" Naruto screamed.

"Calm down Naruto. Breathe focus and pour a little chakra into the star." Tenten instructed. Naruto took a deep breath and did as he was told. The star struck the bulls eye dead on. Naruto cheared.

"thank you Tenten!" he screamed running up to her and giving her a hug. Once he realized what he had done he backed up and scratched the back of his head, blushing deaply.

"Sorry, I got a little exited. But thank you. This is the first time i've been able to throw a bulls eye."

"It's ok. But i'm amazed you havn't been able to throw one before. You could do it the second you focused chackra into the star but you never tried before."

"No one ever told me that trick."

"Really? Its a lesson taught on the first day of the academy. Most kids don't hit all bulls eye because of lack of chakra control. How did they never teach you?"

"...Most teachers won't help me or teach me anything that the Hokage doesn't make them. And even then they give me harder tests. I took one of my classmates test's last year and filled it out, I scored a 100 percent. I compare it to the test they gave me, mine had thirty extra questions and all of them were more difficult."

"How... why would they do that?"

"I don't know." Tenten just looked at him shocked by the seemingly unprovoked hatred he seamed to receive. Naruto just shook his head and dawned a smile she knew was fake. The two continued on there training.
