Naruto's Different Beginning
Prologue
Genin Teams
One bright morning in the Village of Konoha, an ANBU, a black-ops ninja, burst into the Hokage's office. He was dressed in the standard black armor and cloak, a mask of a raccoon obscuring his identity.
"What is it?" the Hokage, an elderly man in charge of the village, asked.
"Uzumaki Naruto stole the Forbidden Scroll."
"What? Why would he do that? He passed the Genin Test tied for first rank, along with Uchiha Sasuke."
The ANBU sighed. "He says that it's because him and Sasuke were split up, as well as young Harry Potter and Haruno Sakura. He claims that he was promised that him, Sasuke, Harry, and Sakura would be placed on the same team, and they were not."
"Very well, change the teams and alert the students tomorrow. You are dismissed."
"You're going to allow the fox to get away with this?" the ANBU asked in disbelief.
"Yes, I did promise him that they would be on the same team, but I was in an important meeting when the teams were decided. Believe it or not, those four will make a perfect team, especially under Kakashi. And his name is Naruto, not fox. You must learn to respect him. It isn't, after all, his fault that the Kyuubi was sealed in his body." With this said, Professor Sarutobi left the room, headed to the woods where Naruto was hidden.
In those woods, a boy with brilliant blonde hair and stunning blue eyes shook with fury as he practiced the techniques in the Forbidden Scroll.
"How dare they? They broke their promise! Not only splitting up Sasuke and I, but Sakura and Harry as well! They will pay for doing this to us!"
A twig snapped, and the young teenager whirled around to face the Hokage. "Why did you back out of your promise?" he ordered.
"Naruto, they decided the teams when I was not there. At the moment, I was in a meeting with Albus Dumbledore. But the teams have been changed; I kept my promise."
"Good. But¼ALBUS DUMBLEDORE! Why him?" Naruto demanded as he processed what the Hokage, also known as Professor Sarutobi, had just said.
"Your team will be going to Hogwarts in September three years from now. You have until then to train as well as you can. Of course, training will continue while you are there, but you will not have as much time there as you do here."
"Thank you, but I don't want to go to England, so don't expect me to be happy about it!"
"I never thought that you would be," Professor Sarutobi responded calmly, ignoring the harsh voice of the young boy, a voice created by the scorn of the villagers. The villagers hated him, for on his stomach lay the seal of a nine-tailed fox demon named Kyuubi. Kyuubi went on a killing spree, killing many of the villagers thirteen years before, and most of the people of Konoha never forgot the fear of death, looking upon Naruto with fear and hate as if he was the demon himself.
