Hey everyone it's been awhile but I'm glad to announce I'm back. With a new title and a clear story list I will try to write even more story's that you will all enjoy more than those in the past. For Now I'll be working on three stories in tandem for a while, I want to try out different things with all three so you might find your opinions on them are vastly different. But I would still like your comments on which style I excel in more and which elements you believe I can improve on more. Now without further ado I present Naruto: Son of the Yellow Flash. Oh by the way I am looking for a Beta, you can work on one or more of the stories if you wish and mostly I'm looking for someone to help with small mistakes and more importantly offer input on how interesting the chapters are and what elements can be improved before release. But anywho on to the story!

Sharp blue eyes opened suddenly as the faint sounds of footfalls echoed through the empty apartment, those same blue eyes took on an electric-infused appearance as suddenly the small room erupted into chaos, and an entire wall was smashed to splinters as smoke filled the room. Three shapes moved into position under the cover of the smoke. Another shape shot from the surface of the bed as a barrage of shuriken littered the mattress. The same shape that had dodged then proceeded to flip through a series of hand seals before pressing a palm toward the floor.

"Wind Style: Gale Palm!" The person howled in a tone denoting a younger boy. Wind swirled rapidly and within half a second all the smoke was blown away revealing the other three figures as well as the one being attacked. The boy who had just cleared the smoke stood was the owner of those sharp blue eyes, his spiked blonde hair held its place despite the wind, his features were set in determination as he clutched a bleeding wound on his right arm. Looking at the bed one could see a single shuriken had blood trickling down its steel edges. The other three figures appeared to be…..the exact same as the blonde who was being attacked. With the exception of all three being geared up in black clothing and an array of ninja pouches. The outnumbered boy looked with a grin at his three shadow clones.

"Nice entrance guys, but now it's my turn" The blonde said with a grin as the three clones pulled out razor sharp kunai in preparation for the upcoming assault. The blonde took off with crazy acceleration as he swiftly obtained two large pieces of shrapnel from the floor, each about as large as a kunai. He flung one forward in the blink of an eye and before the three attackers realized it one of them disappeared in a puff of smoke. The other two jumped back in an attempt to keep the smoke from blinding them. However while they were still mid-jump the original burst through the smoke and flung the second wooden shard at one copy. Said copy was able to deflect the shrapnel with great effort which allowed the original to launch an uppercut, the copy was caught directly in the chin and in a puff of smoke only the original and one copy remained. Both squared off as the copy retrieved a second kunai, he slipped into a wide legged stance with one kunai held in a normal grip in front of him while the second was held in a reverse grip slightly closer to his body and off to the side. The original smirked as the copy charged him, starting with a simple jab with the front knife the clone attempted to get the original on his back foot. The original was having none of that as he simply sidestepped the knife jab letting the momentum carry his copy forward. The copy whirled on his back foot bringing the second knife toward the original with the rotation of his spin behind it. The original caught the wrist of his copy and sent the powerful back swing into its own back. Allowing it to poof out of existence. The blonde wiped the sweat from his brow as he surveyed the destruction of his room.

"Yep, definitely a good way to start the morning" Naruto Uzumaki said to himself before forming a cross shaped hand seal, two clones poofed into existence beside him and set out cleaning up the mess. Naruto meanwhile looked at his bed with a small pout. 'Maybe I should rethink these clone assaults every morning, this is the fifth bed this month' Naruto thought to himself as he strolled toward the bathroom for his morning shower.

'Nonsense brat, these are good training for you. They help you maintain shadow clones in your sleep while also readying you for night assaults.' A deep menacing voice said in his head as Naruto turned the taps for his shower. The Nine tailed fox that lived in Naruto had been communicating with the blonde since he could remember. So it was no real surprise to him when that bastard Mizuki told him what he already knew. Now that he thought on it he should probably go to the prison to thank Mizuki. Without his help the blonde would have never found out about the techniques in the forbidden scroll.

'Now hurry up you've got training all day for the rest of the week. Team assignments are in four days aren't they?' The fox seemed to demand more so than question, Naruto nodded his head rapidly before jumping into the shower. But at the same time he was glad he had the fox around to keep him company.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

'Hey Fox why are you exactly helping me? Aren't I the only thing in the way of you and your freedom' Naruto questioned in a calm tone as he strolled down the street, his tenant seemed to growl in anger at this question.

'Don't get so high and mighty brat, you could never hope to stand in my way. It's that damn seal on your stomach that's in my way. And at the same time you're not exactly insignificant to my well-being. As long as this seal is here I die with you. So it's in my best interest to give you at least the guidance your sensei choose not to. It just so happens your smart for a human, however small an achievement that is. So training you is a lot less annoying than it could have been if you were similar to my previous container.' The fox growled out angrily remembering the red haired woman, he could still hear her constant screaming in his ears. Naruto was oblivious to the fox's memories as he was content with the answer, no need to press the issue if he was getting a good sensei out of it. Naruto's eyes widened as he slipped out of deep thought. All he saw was a flash of Coal black eyes before he and another person were sent tumbling to the ground. As he looked up he was met with the eyes of Satsuki Uchiha. The girl was about three inches shorter than him and her long raven hair was slightly spiky allowing several bangs to cover her forehead while the rest cascaded down to her mid-back. She wore a white short skirt that was split along the sides showing black spandex shorts. This was accompanied by white stocking that went up to just above her knees. She wore a blue sleeveless top that clung to her body and to cover her arms she wore white arm warmers that went up to above her elbow. Both those and the stockings had blue outlines that matched her shirt. Naruto looked down at his customary outfit of black pants and jacket with an orange undershirt and felt out of fashion.

"I found you, you blonde bastard!" She exclaimed before jumping atop Naruto pinning his arms to the ground, the fire in her eyes was noticeable to Naruto as she ground her teeth. "Why the hell did you fail the graduation exam!?" She shouted down at him as the blonde grinned in embarrassment. Unknown to her, Mizuki had tampered with Naruto's results before giving him the fake graduation option to steal the scroll. Looking back on it he couldn't understand why he would believe such a thing.

Flashback Time!

Naruto looked up at Iruka who currently had a massive fuma shuriken sticking out of his back, the teacher had just saved Naruto from the attack of Mizuki who was after the scroll Naruto had on his back. Naruto swore at himself in his head thinking how he had been played for a fool by Mizuki. He had just been so desperate to become a shinobi. Naruto's eyes became sharper and more steel like as he laid the nearly unconscious Iruka down on the ground. Taking the massive shuriken out Naruto quickly tore his jacket up and applied a variety of bandages for pressure and comfort. Satisfied with his patch job Naruto picked up the massive shuriken and looked Mizuki dead in the eye as his own lit up with an electric blue colour.

"Forbidden Art: Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu" Naruto called out with a one handed tiger seal, suddenly in a massive poof of smoke Mizuki was met with nearly 500 Naruto's staring him down. All holding the massive fuma shuriken.

"What the Hell!?" Mizuki exclaimed as he jumped down from the branch he was on to the ground, he landed with not so much as a sound as he looked around at all the Naruto's around him. He was clearly afraid. Naruto simply looked him dead in the eye as he and all his clones reared back their Massive Shuriken. All at once the throwing stars where released and Mizuki's eyes started to water in fear. Suddenly as the storm of steel was about to tear him to pieces all the throwing stars in puffs of smoke disappeared. Before he could have another thought Naruto shot forward from the smoke with his fist reared back. He threw a chakra enhanced haymaker that sent Mizuki flying into a tree. The army of Naruto's all disappeared as the blonde threw a barrage of shuriken that Mizuki flinched at as they all passed the tree. Before Mizuki would offer a taunt several lengths of wire pinned him to the tree as the true purpose of the shuriken revealed itself. His arms were both pinned to his sides stopping him from performing a substitution.

"Now listen here you scum, you have betrayed your village, your student, and your comrade. But I am not the Hokage or even a ninja so I cannot sentence you to death. But I will beat the crap out of you!" Naruto yelled as he sent another chakra powered haymaker at Mizuki's stomach. A crater formed in the tree behind the man as his eyes widened in pain. His voice attempted to choke out some form of speech before Naruto silenced that with a swift right hook to the face that knocked the man out in an instant. Naruto's eyes turned back to their normal ocean blue hue as he grinned before passing out from the strain of his clone army. Which in the end only ended being an intimidation tactic.

Flashback Done!

Remembering the sound pounding he had delivered Mizuki he was content with himself, he was about to reply to Satsuki with a small fib about a mess up with his test results. But he immediately found that while he had reminisced Satsuki had started dragging him along the ground and they were now at a training field.

"Now listen here you blonde dumbass, I thought you were my only real rival at school. And seeing as you failed the graduation exam that probably isn't the case anymore. However in honour of our current score being 50-50 I'll give you one last spar to prove your worth." Satsuki said with a bravado that didn't sound right in her cute voice. Naruto chuckled a bit and decided to indulge the girl before telling her he passed.

Without any words Naruto pulled out a kunai and held it in front of him. His posture was upright and his feet were close together with his back foot bounding up and down, Satsuki looked at the odd combat stance remembering not to underestimate it. She slipped into her Uchiha stance with a kunai in each hand as the two stared at each other. A sudden breeze blew past and in a burst of motion Satsuki shot forward at Naruto who just stood there. She lashed out with a stab of her kunai and was met with a dull thud as Naruto's eyes widened before a puff of smoke showed the log she had just stabbed. She dodged to the right as a kunai embedded itself in the ground. She looked at the treeline and saw a flash of blonde hair as she flashed through Hand seals.

"Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!" Satsuki yelled out as a massive fireball shot out and engulfed the foliage. Catching the blonde in its wake, Satsuki heard a poof of smoke behind her and quickly abandoned the technique to block a roundhouse kick from the blonde who had just transformed from the kunai. She was about to retaliate when he felt cold steel at her neck. She looked behind her to find a slightly singed Naruto holding a kunai to her neck.

"You're an idiot" She mumbled seeing the Uzumaki was actually badly burned in a couple places. She lowered her hands in a sign of defeat as the clone poofed out of existence and Naruto took the kunai away from her throat. She turned around and frowned seeing that the blonde's clothes were mostly black with both his forearms being badly burned. The skin was pink and warped in a way that grossed Satsuki out. Worry shown in her eyes for a second before she looked at the blonde's forehead and saw a leaf headband now adorning it. A few seconds of thought process went into her look of frustration.

"So you passed after all, and how many times have I told you to just dodge my fireballs! I know you heal fast but this looks worse than any other time!" Satsuki growled out at Naruto who winced in pain looking at his arms. Swearing under her breath Satsuki pulled out a container from her back pouch and opened it up before scooping it up in her fingers.

"Satsuki what are you doi….." Naruto asked and was cut off as the girl slathered the creamy looking substance on his right forearm. Naruto's face took on a look of bliss as she proceeded to cover his forearms in the stuff until she was all out. She then proceeded to pull out a roll of bandages and wrap them around her rival's forearms. Naruto mused to himself as he looked at the last Uchiha, he had never talked to her before the massacre of her family but he liked to think this was her old self shining through. He started to remember the first time they really talked. Well that she talked to him.

Flashback time again!

Naruto looked at the small lake he stood in front of, he remembered his sensei's instructions from last time. The fox was focusing all their efforts on controlling his chakra so they were now on the water walking exercise. Naruto took a deep breath and took his first step, being careful to control the chakra coming from his feet. A few seconds passed as he held his focus before he took a second step, then another and another. Naruto's focus was so vast that he didn't notice the raven haired girl looking at him with wide eyes from the opposite shore. He picked up his pace as he clenched his eyes shut. Unknowingly sending himself toward the girl. He felt his foot touch land and opened his eyes only to find himself looking into the deep black eyes of Satsuki Uchiha. The girl's eyes were red and puffy but still very pretty to the young blonde who began to blush a little.

"Ummmmm, hi?" Naruto said awkwardly as he took a step back from the girl and unceremoniously fell into the water with a splash. Satsuki giggled at the display as she wiped her tears away, her features took on a serious expression that looked rather cute on the young girl.

"You're my rival now!" Satsuki proclaimed out loud as Naruto looked at her, dumbfounded. She looked at the blonde expectantly but he continued to just stare wide eyed at her. She huffed in frustration before opening her mouth again. "What I mean is that I'm going to get stronger than you and do cool stuff like that, and it's your job to get stronger too. So I don't get bored, and when I eventually leave you in the dust I can go after that bastard!" Satsuki finished with a loud scream that scared Naruto, the blonde jumped back and fear and found himself creating another splash of water that sent the female Uchiha into a small fit of giggles as she watched the blonde flail about in panic.

Flashback Over!

Naruto let a small warm smile slip unto his lips remembering the event, he found himself looking at Satsuki who had just finished wrapping his arms. His warm smile met her eyes and she quickly looked away. Avoiding eye contact with him.

"The Uchiha get burned while practicing a lot. So we had this developed a while ago. I've got barrels of it back home so don't worry about it." The girl said while avoiding her blonde rival's gaze. Naruto simply grinned in response to the Uchiha's help not noticing the small blush adorning her cheeks.

"Well thanks a lot Satsuki, you're a life-saver. And yes I passed, as you've already noticed. But in return for your help with my burns I guess I'll tell you what really happened…" Naruto said before recounting his little adventure courtesy of Mizuki. Of course he left out the bit's pertaining to his tenants but by the end he was able to tell essentially the entire story. By the end Satsuki seemed both impressed and angry, with a silver of some other emotion Naruto couldn't read.

"So you got to learn a bunch of forbidden techniques!?" Satsuki questioned in outrage, Naruto sweat-dropped seeing that she only cared about that specific part of his whole story. Before she could pressure him more Naruto decided to nip this issue in the butt.

"I only memorized how to do four techniques and I could only understand two of them so don't worry. The Hokage made me promise not to teach them so I guess you'll have to make do with your clan's exclusive Jutsu library." Naruto said before realizing what he said may have come of a little snarky, Satsuki winced a little realizing she still had the advantage over Naruto considering her family's long history of copying techniques and recording them. She was pretty sure if she looked hard enough she could find notes on all the techniques Naruto learned.

"Well I guess you don't have an excuse to lose any more of our spars eh? You might of surprised me with solid clones this time but I'll be ready next time" Satsuki said to him with a challenging smirk, Naruto grinned seeing she hadn't gotten mad at him for his comment. "Anyway as an apology I'll make you some dinner" Satsuki said offhandedly before her eyes widened and her cheeks heated up. Sure it seemed reasonable enough as his arms were too damaged for him to be able and cook himself anything. But still she would be cooking a homemade dinner for him.

"You sure? I wouldn't want to be a burden." Naruto said with sincerity and that only seemed to embolden Satsuki further as she practically started pushing him toward her home that was only a short walk away from this specific training ground. She was a woman of her word and she wouldn't let him weasel out of it. Little did she know that a fiery blush was now encompassing her face.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Mmmmmmmm smell's good, whatcha makin Satsuki?" Naruto said while humming pleasantly, he strolled around the female Uchiha's home occasionally stopping to examine a framed photo or a decorative piece of art. The place felt like a home to Naruto, somewhere to feel safe and loved. He waltzed over to Satsuki who was currently laying out two plates on the modest kitchen table. Each plate held a heaping portion of curry that seemed as though it belonged on a much larger dish.

"It's curry ya dumbass, your right it does smell good….itadakimasu" Satsuki said quickly before immediately digging into the dish. Naruto meanwhile was attempting to manipulate his chopsticks but his hands felt far to numb. Satsuki was already halfway through her dish when she looked over at Naruto who had his first bite halfway to his mouth only for his hand to falter and drop the food onto the tabletop. Naruto let several tears slip out as he looked down at his dear food that was so close yet so out of reach.

"Here dumbass, If you needed help ya should've asked" Satsuki said as she took a new seat directly beside Naruto. She grabbed a heaping glob of curry with her chopsticks before carefully directing it toward Naruto who was a little awestruck. Realizing what was happening Naruto let a small childish smile grace his face as he happily opened his mouth and let Satsuki deposit the food within before closing his lips and savoring the flavour. "Mmmmmmm, thanks Satsuki-chan" Naruto mumbled as he struggled to force the curry down, Naruto had been living by himself his whole life and it flabbergasted him how it could taste this bad. It looked delicious and smelled even more so but the second it touched his tongue Naruto felt every cell in his body screaming at him to not eat the food.

"How is it?" Satsuki questioned with large pleading eyes as if a negative review would break her whole world. Naruto cursed in his head as he swallowed the demon food and grinned before handily lying through his teeth. "Tastes great Satsuki-chan, you'd make a great wife." Naruto said hoping the second part of his statement would distract her from his clear nervousness and it sure did. She immediately grew a tick mark on her forehead as she whapped Naruto over the side of the head. "Dumbass there's no way I'd ever marry you so what are you thinking!" Satsuki yelled as Naruto grinned hearing that. Deciding to tease a little further the Uzumaki prodded.

"Hmm? I never said anything about being my wife Satsuki-chan, what is going through your head?" He asked with a small tease and before he could continue he had an oversized bite of food shoved into his mouth. Chewing the crude toxic abomination Naruto decided to not make her any angrier. She fed him the rest of his meal in comfortable silence, childish imaginations spinning through her head concerning the blonde. "That hit the spot, well Satsuki-chan thanks for the meal but I think I'm Gon…." Naruto never got to finish as he promptly passed out, his head colliding with the table as he heard a deep chuckle in the back of his head.

'Let's see how this plays out'

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Naruto's eyes shot open and he leaped into a standing position atop the cushioned mattress he had woken on, he surveyed the room and found he had no idea where he was. Finally the previous night's events played through his mind and it finally dawned on him. 'I'm in Satsuki's house now, she must have let me stay the night after I passed out'. Naruto thought as his attention shifted to the cause of his current predicament.

'Darn I was hoping she would let you sleep in her bed. No mating for you today kit' Kyuubi said in an almost serious tone that sent Naruto for a loop as he blushed furiously. Drowning out the demon foxes laughter Naruto jumped down to the floor and exited the room. He found the bathroom and as he relieved himself he saw a small bundle of clothes with a note on top.

'Naruto I checked your arms when I woke up and you're fully healed, it's weird but I don't care. Here are some clothes I found, get showered and put them on. I'll be back with breakfast then we are training.' Naruto could practically hear her demanding tone through the paper and decided to follow her orders. Registering what she said he looked at his forearms and noticed he no longer had bandages on and there was no apparent scarring. Naruto soon got into the shower and after a few minutes of debate decided girly shampoo was better than no shampoo. After washing himself he slipped the clothes on to find they were rather high quality. Black shinobi pants with strong elastic on both the waist and ankles, a dozen or so secret pockets adorned the pants and Naruto decided he would have to get some of these for himself. Slipping the shirt on he found it was a simple black muscle shirt with a low neck. The Uchiha symbol adorned the back, Naruto looked at the roll of medical tape that was also there and wrapped both his ankles and shin above the pant legs then his hands and forearms.

"Alright might as well work up a sweat while I wait for breakfast" Naruto thought to himself before heading out of the bathroom and locating the back door which lead to a large courtyard/training field. Quickly flipping through hand signs he slapped his hands onto his shins.

"Sealing Art: Gravity Seal 5!" Naruto felt the familiar pressure on his legs, he then proceeded to perform the same technique on his wrists. Underneath the bandages his permanent seals lit up with chakra. He always had a doubling gravity seal that spanned his entire body but for training these weights really helped him drain his stamina. The blonde crossed his fingers in a cross seal then channeled about half of his chakra.

"Forbidden Art: Multiple Shadow Clone Jutsu!" With that call 500 clones poofed into existence all around him filling the courtyard. They quickly spread in a circle around him as they individually cancelled the training gravity seals. Naruto pulled out a pair of odd tri-pronged kunai that he had seen a picture of in the forbidden scroll. He liked the look of them so he bought some from a small time weapons shop. They only had a dozen so he commissioned the creation of more for the future, he certainly wouldn't be eating well for the next month as he had spent way too much on the kunai.

"Here we come Boss!" The clones hollered out as they all prepared an assault, three launched themselves at him perfectly separated by 120 degrees on both sides. Naruto sheathed his kunai and stood his ground then waited for the second they all threw simultaneous punches. Diving forward at one slightly the two others missed their punches by centimetres, Naruto grabbed the extended arm that now rested above his shoulder. Quickly he slipped it over his back allowing its increased weight to crush the other two. Finally he spun on his heel breaking the arm he grasped causing the third to puff out of existence. Flowing forward from that he rolled forward rising up into an uppercut to dispel another clone. This pattern continued as Naruto weaved through attacks, never blocking. He simple weaved around attacks allowing the clones to dispel each other with their frenzied attacks. Finally one of the clones whistled loudly and they all jumped back from the blonde.

"Cool your heads boys we can still beat him yet, he only got us down to 300 with that. But we're not gonna play into his games anymore. Wait for him to attack then counter!" One of the clones shouted and the rest rallied with a battle cry as they formed their circle again. Naruto sighed as they always got smart by this point. Brandishing his two kunai he blurred forward in a flash of motion slicing the necks of two clones. Using the smokescreen supplied by their deaths de slid under the attacks of the clones behind them. Slicing the back of their ankles he slid to a stop in front of two clones preparing to jump hi. Spinning rapidly on the ground he kicked the two clones away before transferring the momentum into a handspring that launched him into mid-air. Once high above them threw a rain of shuriken that the tightly packed clones could not dodge.

"Naru….." Satsuki mumbled to herself as she entered the courtyard, She took a head count and found that there were currently 301 Naruto's in the courtyard. 500 of which were crowded around one who she assumed was the original. She watched as Naruto dispatched clone after clone despite all the strategy changes they were throwing at him. Not once did the blonde throw a single jutsu out. She also noticed his arms and legs were more sluggish than usual, assuming that meant weights she wondered why she couldn't see any bands on his arms.

"Oh hey Satsuki sorry I was just working out before training. What's for breakfast?" Naruto questioned before performing a quick jutsu release on his ankles and wrists. Satsuki took note of the seals that appeared on him as he formed the release seal. "Naruto you know sealing techniques?" Satsuki questioned as she placed two piles of dango on plates down. Naruto walked over wiping the sweat from his brow with the back of his hand.

"Yeah the old man said that I might have a talent for it so he gave me some notebooks. They're all written over with personal notes that really help though. Probably his old note books from his Jonin days or something" Naruto drawled on as he quickly dug into the food, Satsuki nodded hearing this knowing Naruto and the Hokage got along really well.

"So after all that you're still good to train all day?" Satsuki questioned as Naruto finished his plate. Naruto wiped his lips and grinned. "Hell yeah I've got stamina for days so don't worry about it." Naruto answered and Satsuki nodded as another question popped to mind.

"Well concerning that skill what did you just do with your wrists and ankles?" Satsuki asked and Naruto answered as he swiped a stick of Dango from the distracted Satsuki. She still caught his wrist with practiced ease. As he grinned sheepishly Naruto began to explain. "Gravity seals, they help me work up a sweat while training and deactivating them is easier than taking off weights. Makes for a good surprise in battle. You want one?" Naruto asked and Satsuki was quick to reply with a rapid head nod.

"Yes please! Hurry so we can get training!" Satsuki said with small stars in her eyes at the thought of the training boost. Naruto nodded as a small blush adorned his face. "Well you see I'm gonna need you to show me your back. For a full body seal it has to be on the back or chest. And you're um..." Naruto droned but Satsuki silenced him with a giggle before turning her back to him. Naruto's blush strengthened as she pulled her shirt off in a quick elegant motion that sent her hair waving beautifully. Pulling back in front of her shoulder she left her back bare besides the bra strap.

"umm, that too…" Naruto trailed off as a blush now sprung to Satsuki's face, she nodded as she reached around her back and with a quick movement the piece of white fabric loosened only held on loosely by the shoulder straps. Naruto slapped his cheeks to calm down and tapped his belly button, the source of all his equipment. A paintbrush and ink well poofed into existence as Naruto breathed slowly.

"Alright I'm gonna need you to relax your chakra network, I'm slipping my own chakra into your skin so if you tense a little your chakra network will repel me and it won't work. Naruto saw her nod her head slightly and watched as her breathing slowed. He opened the ink well and with a quick bite his thumb was bleeding. Several drops entered the ink well and if one focused they could see blue chakra disperse through the ink. Several tense seconds went by before Satsuki felt a brush tickle against her back. Several tense minutes went by as Naruto's hand moved expertly across the girl's smooth alabaster skin, his blush only supressed by his focus. Satsuki looked over her shoulder and seeing the focus the blonde was putting into her skin her blush increased tenfold.

"Alright that's good, now I've just gotta set the strength and the chakra will embed it into your chakra network. I'll start you at one and a half times regular gravity and you can move it up as you train more. But I'm the only one who can adjust it so let's hope we get the same team eh?" Naruto asked as Satsuki nodded, too focused on the blonde's statement about teams. He was the only one in the class she knew could keep pace with her so she silently hoped for that outcome as well.

"Sealing Art: Gravity Seal 1.5!" Naruto called as Satsuki felt warmth envelop her, the blonde's chakra flooded her coils for a quick second and suddenly it was gone. She felt herself craving that warmth once more but quickly schooled herself. "You can cloth yourself again" Naruto muttered as he quickly turned around. Satsuki did so faster than she should have been able to concerning the new weight. Finally she started to stand, only to find her legs buckle slightly. Naruto turned hearing her grunt of effort. He watched as she stood tall and stretched slowly, Slowly Satsuki started moving around and Naruto was happy she understood what was necessary.

"Alright let's train our heads off!" Naruto shouted with a grin that Satsuki returned.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Team 7 will be Satsuki Uchiha, Sakura Haruno, and Ken Yukimura under the tutelage of Kakashi Hatake" Iruka called out, both Naruto and Satsuki grunted in their seats. Satsuki was irked for a couple reasons she didn't want to think about and Naruto realized he wouldn't be on a team to help Satsuki. Iruka continued on with the teams and by the end Naruto realized he wasn't on any. Before he could complain Iruka's voice rung out again.

"And Naruto Uzumaki will be the personal protégé to…..Lord Jiraiya of the Sannin!?" Iruka proclaimed with a slight break in his voice reading the name of the legendary toad sage. Before anybody else could comment a massive puff of smoke sprung forth in the middle of the classroom. A very tall white haired man wearing a red overcoat and brandishing the kanji for oil on a horned headband appeared atop an armoured toad roughly the size of a bear.

"I am the great Jiraiya! Epitome of manliness and….." He was cut off by a flying drop kick curtesy of Naruto, said kick sent the Sannin crashing into the wall of the classroom. Naruto stood there with an embarrassed blush on his face as he picked up the dizzy eyed Sannin and jumped out the window.

"Sorry about that everyone!" Naruto shouted as the large toad puffed out of existence behind the two. Every student plus Iruka simply sat there with wide eyes at what had occurred in front of them. None quite registering it until several minutes passed.

"What the Fuck!?" Kiba shouted, speaking everyone's thoughts at the moment.

Xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"So brat aren't you glad that you get to be my protégé?" Jiraiya questioned with a grin as he and Naruto sat cross legged opposite each other in a random training field. Naruto was holding a water balloon in his hand and focusing extremely hard on it. 'The Old man did say Naruto found the notes on the Rasengan and Hiraishin. I'll let him try things himself but if he comes to me for help I'll tell him everything I know about those techniques.' Jiraiya thought to himself as the water balloon burst open suddenly. He looked over wide eyed as Naruto cheered at the result before pulling a rubber ball out of seemingly nowhere, he assumed sealing was involved.

"That's quite the coincidence you succeeded just now. Eh Naruto?" Jiraiya questioned and Naruto broke away from his focus momentarily to regard him.

"I know you taught the fourth and he certainly taught you this technique. So I wanted to show you what I had done already so you didn't accuse me of skipping a step." Naruto said somewhat childishly as Jiraiya nodded in understanding. He watched the blonde continue to focus on the rubber ball in his hand and the Sannin grinned in approval of his new protégé, 'just like his father'. As Jiraiya mused silently Naruto thought about the Toad Sage, he had visited and trained Naruto once every year since he was 6 so the guy was already in his good books. 'Is this what an uncle would be like?' Naruto thought to himself before ignoring his own thoughts as the rubber ball in his hand blew a small hole in the side. Groaning angrily another one appeared out of the seal in his stomach allowing him to continue.

"Say Naru….." Jiraiya was cut off as a rain of senbon embedded themselves in the side of his head, Naruto's eyes turned sharp and became more of an electric blue as he flashed the release hand seal allowing his whole body gravity seal to expel. The extra speed boost allowed him to easily dodge a rain of shuriken that now occupied his previous position. Naruto paid close attention to where the shuriken came from and when a branch rustled slightly he let loose a hail of shuriken that appeared in his hands from seals in his arms. Naruto used his keen hearing to determine they struck wood and was fast to create 10 shadow clones around himself. In the following puff of smoke he transformed into a kunai and allowed one of his clones to brandish him while the rest pulled out kunai of their own. Wordlessly they all took off into the forest in different directions.

"I know your there, come on out!" The Naruto clone said in a crisp monotone that sent a shiver up the assailant's spine as she stepped out from behind a tree, however being the Jonin she was the women didn't show a hint of that slight nervousness. Naruto still in kunai form assessed the woman and finding she wore the traditional Jonin garb of a Hidden Stone Shinobi he ground his teeth. Naruto hoped his clone would be able to come up with the plan he was thinking of. Naruto watched as the woman interacted with his Shadow clone.

"Clever boy, now time to die!" The woman yelled as she leaped high through the air, as the clone prepared to throw him Naruto's spirit lifted. The Clone would throw him as hard as possible and send him far away from the enemy shinobi. His clone threw him with a grunt of effort and Naruto's breathed a sigh of relief as the woman dodged deftly out of the way of the projectile as he expected. What he did not expect was for her to skillfully pluck him out of mid-air before throwing him back at the clone with amazing speed. The clone had no chance as Naruto sailed through him before embedding in the ground. The impact being enough to force him back into his original form.

"You idiot I'm a Jonin, why do you think I left those other clones alone. You were the only one with two chakra signatures. Once you were separated from the clone it was easy to tell you had your own chakra signature. I was hoping the clone would be the kunai though. Might have been able to end this quicker, oh well more time for us to play. The woman said before licking her lips and landing on the ground gently, Naruto scrambled to his feet as she flashed through Hand seals.

"Earth Style: Boulder Storm Jutsu!" The woman called out before stomping her foot down, in compliance several dozen large boulders launched up into the air, around her and with another hand seal they were all sent flying at him. Holding his right hand in a half tiger seal Naruto squinted his eyes in concentration. He blurred into motion as his body moved with a speed one could only recognize as a blur in the corner of their eye. Phasing between and around the boulders Naruto was beside the woman faster than she could see. Using her surprise to his advantage Naruto launched a spinning back kick into her side. The woman flew several feet and this allowed the blonde to draw one of his special kunai out. Seeing the Kunai he drew the woman's eyes widened in surprise before the kunai was embedded in her forehead curtesy of Naruto's chakra enhanced throw. Naruto grinned before in a puff of smoke the woman disappeared, quickly scanning the area Naruto moved with rapid concentration as a new presence appeared behind him. Naruto attempted a backhand but his fist was caught by a large man's hands. Looking over his shoulder in fear Naruto sweat dropped seeing the Pervy sage grinning immensely. He momentarily mulled over the possibility of a fake but he could just feel that this was really the sage.

"Good job Naruto, you took that Shadow clone apart. Even if it was holding back immensely. Still the clone was fighting at Low chuunin level." Jiraiya praised already knowing the reason for the quick victory was his clones surprise seeing the three pronged kunai his last student favoured. Naruto let a small smile slip unto his features hearing Jiraiya's approval and before he could reply with a sly comment on if the sage was truly holding back Jiraiya took the initiative in speaking.

"Usually you would be doing D-Rank missions with your team to improve your team work but being a solo team that will be difficult. So the Hokage will be sending you with other Genin teams on missions. Your first mission is with team Gai today. They should be waiting at the gate in…2 minutes." Jiraiya said with a childish grin and the second the word processed Naruto took off in a blur of speed, leaving Jiraiya to cough on the dust he had kicked up.
