Zoumitsu Senpuu

Secret Leaf

I yawned in this boring place called the academy. 'If only they knew. I wouldn't have to do this.' With a sigh, I watched my instructor. I could have taught a thing or two of what he doesn't know. My name is Uzumaki Naruto. People would know me as the demon child or the bakemono. I may be hyperactive and crap, but I'm actually different. In the battlefield, I am merciless, sly, and fox like in every way. Villagers look at me with fear and little respect in their eyes.

When I was little, I don't like to be weak. During my younger days, I was found beaten up in the streets, threatened, glared at for the first few years of my life. A nin with an Inu mask saved me from a certain death in a mob full of people. It was a beginning of a dream being in the Anbu and then hokage.

"Naruto! Name the five hidden villages." Iruka yelled.

I mentally chuckled. Easy, but I'm sorry to say I have to act like a baka. "I know Konoha…..but I don't know any others."

"It is Kiri, Iwa, Kumo, and Suna. Pay attention next time."

The class laughed at me the dead last. He continued lecturing and Shikamaru smirked while Kiba did a thumbs up.

Suprisingly, I already made the Anbu. It is not like anyone around me knows about it. The council wanted me dead, if not a weapon. The Sandaime agreed but he personnally trained me so I don't turn into the Root members. Then, he trusted me enough to send me to the academy because it is required to become a ninja. Most of all to make friends. I don't really want them to pay much attention to my 'true skills' so that's what happenened.

My class mates would have stared at me in shock. Here am I, the Anbu captain(since I was seven) in class.

Today, is the genin test. Yippie. Sasuke, the boy in front of me is brooding again about how mighty he is. I could beat him any day of the weak.

"Class, fall in line. We are starting the test." Iruka announced.

We lined up, one after another. Nervous, excited, and bored (Shikamaru). "Haruno Sakura." The pink haired kunoichi finished her glare directed at Ino. She walked to the front and did a single hand sign. Smoke appeared and she henged into an almost exact copy of sensei. "Did you see that, Sasuke kun!" Sakura smiled at him.

"Uchicha Sasuke." He copied her example and went his way. "Hn."

After my classmates, it's my turn. "Uzumaki Naruto." I watched the silver haired chunin, Mizuki. 'There's something up.' I 'failed' to do a bunshin, trying to see his reaction. Then, I did Oiroke no Jutsu (Sexy no Jutsu) much to my amusement. Iruka wiped away his nosebleed.

"You failed!" Mizuki tried to calm Iruka down. "He made a bunshin at least and also henged."

Iruka shook his head. "The clone looks sick or dead. Gomen, Naruto." Iruka stared at me expecting to fight back, but seeing me doing nothing, he is surprised.

I went back to my seat even though I wanted to wring the gay teme's neck for calling me a dobe.

Class is over and students met their parents with shining hiatais. I sat on the swing, quickly looking at the sky.

"It's the brat. He is the only one who didn't pass." One woman sneered.

"It would have been a disaster."

I growled, listening to every word. I am not deaf. 'Wouldn't you want to meet an angry Anbu captain? Disaster enough!' Mizuki walked towards me. 'How entertaining…..'

I reported everything to the Third hokage. Mizuki plans on stealing the forbidden scroll. "What do you want to do?" He asked, putting his paperwork aside.

"Capturing him using it as bait, of course. The plan is fool-proof, jiji-sama."

Sarutobi sighed. "Make sure he doesn't escape with it."

I grinned and headed for the door. "I am not called captain for nothing."

I changed my clothes….My horrible orange 'kill me now' jumpsuit. I put on my Anbu gear and my fox mask on. My left arm had a tattoo that is required for every member. I tied an orange scarf on my neck that says 'Kitsune Teichou.' It is so long that it trails around me like a cape. It my unique way of showing I'm a captain instead of a plain cloak every captain wore before me. I made a Kage Bunshin to get the real scroll from the hokage. To take advantage of the situation, I also wanted to learn a few techniques in there.

My clone scanned around for Mizuki while I, myself, hid affectingly in the shadows of the trees. Everything is going accordingly to plan. A certain brown haired chunnin appeared. 'That was definitely not suppose to happen.' I wasn't listening to most of the conversation. Then, Mizuki showed himself. He threw kunai at Iruka who pushed 'me' out of the way. "Mizuki!" Iruka yelled.

"Naruto, do you know what happened twelve years ago?"

"No! It's forbidden."

"The Kyuubi wasn't killed by the Fourth. The demon is you Naruto!"

"Ehh…Jiji-san already told me. Sensei, I'm going to show you a technique I learned. Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" A thousand clones intimidated Mizuki and beat him up. I covered my mouth to keep myself from laughing.

"Naruto, close your eyes for a second." Iruka took off his headband and tied it own his head. "You are now a ninja."

All of a sudden Mizuki got up and took his large shuriken. "Take this demon!" Iruka ran towards my clone. 'This is going too far.' I stepped in by using shunshin to get in front of Iruka. With fast reflexes, I grabbed it in mid-air.

"You are hereby under arrest for stealing the forbidden scroll and injuring a fellow citizen. It looks like you are in a bind Umino-san." I said in a relaxed, mature voice.

"Arigato, Anbu-sama."

"No need for the formalities."

Mizuki made a run for it. "Kanashibari no Jutsu (Temporary Body Paralysis technique)."

Mizuki stepped dead in his tracks. "Curse you!" He yelled and then fell over. I reached to my ear and turned on the radio. "Fox to Squad 5. Suspect is located in point S-22. I request that you pick him up." There was a pause. "We will get him in one minute, sir." A woman's voice replied. I gazed at Iruka and my clone. "That is pretty cool!" 'Naruto' yelled. Kuma (bear) and Urufu (wolf) appeared. "Why hello." I greeted.

"Captain…." Wolf said. I could tell she is rolling her eyes.

"Whatever. Bring Mizuki to Ibiki. Tell him I said hi."

The thing I hate is reporting the mission. "Mission success. Mizuki has been captured and sent to Ibiki."

The hokage smiled, "Glad to hear it, Kitsune (fox).Now this involves your genin team tomorrow. Please have fun. Keep a close eye on Sasuke though." I bowed and headed home. Shower….here I come.

Iruka is announcing the gennin teams. "Team 10, Yamanaka Ino, Akimichi Chouji, and Nara Shikamaru." Chouji kept eating while Shikamaru stared at the angry/sad girl. "Team 8, Aburame Shino, Hyuuga Hinata, and Inuzuka Kiba."Hinata's face fell and Kiba got excited. "Team 7, Haruno Sakura, Uzumaki Naruto..." I laughed at the look of Sakura's face. "...and Uchicha Sasuke." There is a loud 'yes.' 'I'm going to be deaf.' I still have to act like 'me' as best as I can around them.

"Wait until your instructors come and get you."

About two hours later, my teammates and I were on the edge. I took some wire and my special teishoku mini bombs. It is mostly used in my pranks. I got the marble looking bombs and set up the trap.

"What are you doing baka?" Sakura watched.

I grinned. "You'll see."

"How could a jounin fall for your trap?" I just laughed.

When I was finished, I looked at my the trap for any flaws. A chakra signature came closer and closer. I sat in my seat innocently. The door opened and the silver haired jounin popped in expecting a trap. He is relieved and walked in. "You must be my t-" The nin tripped the wire. My creations fell on the unsuspecting jounin. With every hit, smoke appeared and something splattered all over him. When the smoke cleared, there are many paint spots all over him. His silver hair is soaked with blue, yellow and red paint.

We cannot contain our laughter including Sasuke. "My first impression of you is...I hate you." Our sensei stated. "Meet at the roof after I clean this off." He poofed away.

"Way to go Naruto." Sakura glared.

Furasshubakku (flashback) no Jutsu

Kitsune was in the Anbu training grounds with a new member, Kame(turtle). Kame stared at the short captain.

"I'll test your skills using these. They are Teishoku bombs that I made. I will decide if you make it to Anbu." Kitsune tossed a bag to the Turtle who almost dropped them.

"What are they for captain?"

"You can be creative using them. Distractions,tracking since they have a faint scent, hiding, etc. Mostly I will see if you could hit me with one. I'll only give you thirty. You have two hours to get me."

"Why so many?"

"You'll need more trust me."

"Yes, teichou-sama!"

In the end, Naruto had to wash his hair two times to remove the sticky blue paint.

Kai!!

I remembered that Hatake Kakashi used to be in the Anbu. He stared at us with an annoyed expression. "Ok gaki, you tell us your likes, dislikes, hobbies, and dreams. I'll start by my name, Hatake Kakashi. My likes, hobbies, and dislikes are none of your business. I don't have any dreams or goals for the future." We only know his name. "You pinkie."

Sakura smiled. "My name is Haruno Sakura. My hobbies are..." She turns to Sasuke," my likes are..." She blushes. "...my dreams for the future..." Sakura blushes and squeals. "My dislike is Naruto." She glares while I snorted secretly.

Kakashi sighs. "You blondy."

I smiled. "I'm Uzumaki Naruto. I like ramen, training, and foxes. I hate traitors and people who think they are better than others..." I glanced at Sasuke. "...My hobbies is training, creating new jutsus, and eating ramen. I want to be the Hokage so I could be respected by others and to protect my precious people."

"I see...the second coming of sensei." Kakashi muttered the last part. Then, he turned to Sasuke. " Your turn."

Sasuke put his hands under his chin. "My name is Uchicha Sasuke. I don't have likes or dislikes. I don't even want to bother with hobbies. I don't have a dream...rather an ambition to kill a certain man." I raised an eyebrow. Kakashi might be thinking the same thing.

"Tommorrow, we are going to have a suvival test to see if you are 'cut out' for a spot on a team."

"I thought we already took a test." Sakura frowned.

"Again it is to see if you qualify to be a genin and the real test is to see if you make it as a genin. Meet Training ground 7 at 6 am and make sure you don't eat breakfast or you'll throw up. Ja Ne." He disappeared in a swirl of leaves. I shrugged and poofed out of existence, leaving two shocked teammates behind.

I chuckled in my apartment. My bunshin got the information I needed since I had to do an S class mission. I might as well get some extra sleep and eat breakfast because the copy nin is known for being late.

What do you think? Please review! Also the next chapter will be a different point of view...

A chibi wolf danced around with a pencil...

Ja Ne!
