Disclaimer: Lets see…I'm supposed to say something here…hmmmmmmm….Damn I've forgotten…Eh wait it's coming…NOOOOO it's gone. Mou…Oh right I don't own Naruto… Silly me to forget...eheheheh. sweatdrops.

Chapter 1

In a dark bedroom with the moon as only light source a white haired man with masked face sat by the window looking at the stars.

´I miss you.

I guess you really don't know what you got until you lose it.

I miss you my sunshine.

I guess it's my own fault, I was blind.

I didn't realize what you meant to me until the day you left us,…me.

You said you would return but we haven't heard from you in 4 years, please come home, I miss you….Naruto…I really miss you.

4 years ago

" I'm leaving" a blond bundle of sunshine at the age of 13 said staring at the ground and avoiding to look at his friend he asked to meet him at the front gate. As usual Kakashi-sensei was late by THREE HOURS… even thought Naruto had asked them to come at 9 o'clock…sigh…well it's not that it's something new. He just wasn't important enough for his sensei to actually break his bad habit to hear what he wanted to say to them, I mean how many times do you assemble all your precious people if it's not important, and know Kakashi-sensei was leaning, against the gate reading his beloved Icha Icha Paradise volume 2.

Sasuke, which he managed to drag back to Konoha when he left to join Orochimaru, was brooding with Sakura and Ino hanging at an arm each, nothing changed there. Shikamaru sat on the ground leaning against a tree while Chouji was munching down an extra ultra SUPER large bag of chips since he thought he needed to gain the weight he lost in his fight against Jiroubou, one of Orochimaru's Sound Five. Kiba was standing next to Shino who looked as…eh…expressionless as usual and Hinata was blushing while fiddling with her fingers as she ALWAYS did when Naruto was near, I mean it wasn't like he hadn't noticed, you would have to be blind and really stupid to not notice and Naruto was neither. He may act as a stupid usuratonkachi but that was just the mask he used in front of everyone. Well anyway, Neji was looking arrogant as always even if he had become a bit nicer since Naruto defeated him in the chunin exam, TenTen stood next to him trying to ignore Lee's jabbering about the fire of YOUTH. Gai-sensei wasn't really helping when he started to…sigh. Iruka-sensei stood with Kurenai-sensei and the ever smoking Asuma-sensei, cough. Tsunade's and Shizunes's hands was twitching to hit Jiraiya as he was staring at a women who was walking by them while he was drooling and of course scribbling in his always handy note book so he could write down his hentai ideas for his next book…nothing ever changes, eh.

But all this stopped as he said those two words.

Silence.

"Huh?" Kiba.

"N.na.naruto-kun?" guess who, yep Hinata.

"…" Shino, Neji, TenTen, Kurenai-sensei, Tsunade, Shizune and Jiraiya.

"munch munch" Chouji.

"sigh troublesome" Shikamaru.

"NANI!!!!!" Lee, Gai, Ino, Sakura and Iruka-sensei.

"Hn" Sasuke-teme.

"smoke" Asuma-sensei.

"giggle" Kakashi reading his book not listening to Naruto.

"I said I'm leaving" Naruto repeated.

This time even Kakashi heard and actually dropped his precious book.

"You can't just leave, baka!" Sakura yelled and hit Naruto's head.

"I can and am leaving, Tsunade-obachan has given me leave and ero-sennin is coming with me." Said Naruto while nursing his poor head. ´Damn, why must that stupid fangirl hit so hard he thought to himself.

´Maybe because she is an annoying, pathetic human? was Kyuubi's answer since he was listening on the conversation.

"Why are you letting him leave? Tsunade-sama?" Sakura almost yelled at the Godaime Hokage.

"Because I am" was the short answer.

Silence.

"You don't have to worry, I will come back. Ne, Iruka-sensei, can you watch over my apartment for me?" Naruto looked at his favourite teacher.

"O.of course, Naruto. But please come back soon." The brown haired chunin answered.

" I will try Iruka-sensei. Ne, ero-sennin come now lets go." The blonde said with a small smile.

"Kuso gaki, how many times do I have to tell you not to call me that." The white haired toad sannin said while he hit the blonde over his head.

"Itai, ero-sennin, it suit you so well." Was the comeback together with a foxy grin. " Well sayonara minna." He then said to the assembled friends and turned away and started to walk with the white haired super pervert on the road that led away from Konoha, his beloved home where he was hated by so many yet had managed to get some few but, oh so precious friends over the years.

The others just stared at their backs not being able to utter a word.

And then he was gone…

End chapter 1.

I hope you enjoyed it.
