RegretChapter one
He pulled on his vest. Reaching to his right he picked up the bandages there. Finding the end of the tape he quickly wrapped it around his right arm. Grabbing the fingerless gloves on his left he pulled them on. He stood up checking that he had his kunai pouch in easy reach. Walking to the dressing table across from the window he held the one object on top of the smooth wooden surface. He ran his hand across the cold metal surface in his hand; he traced one finger on following the contours of the symbol carved into the cool surface. Looking up he placed a hand on the mirror. Dulled blue eyes gazed unseeingly into each other. Removing his hand he held onto the soft fabric in his other hand, positioning the metal of his hitai-ate over his eyes he tied a strong knot in the material.
This was Uzumaki Naruto, Jounin of Konoha. Blind, since the age of ten.

"Ohayo, Sakura." The blind ninja walked up to his female teammate.
"Naruto, could you help me for a sec? I have to go see a patient can you tell Ino and Hinata to get to the hospital ASAP, there's some poor kid in a coma and a team of Chuunin have been severely injured so we need all the help we can get." She was half running down the street towards the hospital her teammate in tow.
"Ino's on a mission, but I'll go get Hinata. Do you want any help with the one in the coma?" The blonde had managed to make a deal with the Kyuubi his chakra control was near perfect mostly due to the fact that when he was blinded he had to find a way of being able to 'see' again.
"Yeah, that would be great, you don't have any missions tomorrow do you?" when he replied with a 'no' she quickly replied with a "Great! I'll talk to you later, I really have to get going." With a small 'pop' and a gust of smoke she was gone. With a sigh Naruto performed the same hand sign as his friend had just performed and arrived in front of the Hyuuga clans property.
"Naruto-san?" Looking at the guards on duty for the day he walked over to them, both were from the branch family he could 'see' the dark mark of the caged bird seal on their foreheads. This only served to remind him of the fact that he still had yet to complete the new seal for the Hyuuga clan.
"Ohayo, I am here to inform Hinata-san that she is needed at the hospital immediately, I will escort her there." He sensed the older of the two guards quickly leave to inform Hinata of what was happening.
"Naruto-kun! What's happened at the hospital?" He flinched as he sensed the Hyuuga run towards him, the ugly mark on her forehead a permanent reminder of how he had failed his friend. He waited until she was within a few feet and then he jumped onto the roof of a nearby building followed by Hinata.
"From what Sakura told me there are four patients in critical condition, a kid in a coma and several other less severe cases, oh and Neji's being kept overnight after his last mission," when he felt the concern that radiated from her chakra aura he quickly added "although he has no serious injuries, it's more so that he can get away from the elders for a while."
Together they reached the Hospital and after finding where they were needed rushed off to their patients.
"Naruto-sama!" he turned at the call only to see a worried woman standing outside of a doorway to his left "Naruto-sama, I need your help." He hurried to the woman and looked into the room to see a young girl, lying there, bandages covered her eyes. He sighed, one of the few good things that came out of him being blind was that he knew more about eye injuries than any medic, if she was lucky the young girl would leave the hospital in a few days with nothing more than a slight headache.
He walked up to the young girl his hand glowing green, he saw the problem immediately, her retinas had been damaged quite badly, he healed them to an extent, he would have to come back later after he had seen his intended patient.
"She should be able to see light soon, I will need to come back again and finish healing her sight, but for now I have another patient to tend to."
"Thank you, so much Naruto-sama!" With a nod he left the room, now half running down the hall to reach his patient, the longer the length of time that someone spent in a coma often increased the chances of brain malfunction the sooner he reached his patient the sooner he could begin to heal him.
He reached the correct doorway, noticing the chakra signature of the nurse who was at the moment watching over his patient. Opening the door he walked up to the nurse who had stood at his arrival, he caught a glimpse of astonishment from her chakra signature. "What is their condition? How did this happen?" He walked up to the bed and placed a glowing green hand over the child's head.
"He was in a training incident at the academy, involving some of the older students… when the teacher arrived it was already too late, the older students involved are being severely punished, two of them are being expelled… He's been in a self induced coma for the last day and a half, we have not been able to discover the cause, however one of the children involved in the incident apparently tried to use a mind jutsu, when one of the Yamanaka's tried to enter the boys mind they were thrown back out."
"What do the charts say?"
"From all of the tests that we have the results for he should be fine everything is normal, he does not have a kekkai genkai that would impede progress… we don't know what's wrong with him."
Nodding he moved his hand slowly above the boys chest and head, there were no injuries or internal disruptions that he could find. Stopping the chakra flow in his hand he stood back. He stood watching the boys chakra flow for a while. He noticed something different in the movement of the boys chakra around his head. Stepping back up to the boy he placed a hand on his forehead and concentrated on the boys chakra flow in that area.
He heard a commotion in the hallway, not letting this distract him he continued to study his patients chakra movement, there was something different about the way that it was moving around, as if- The door slammed open.
"GET AWAY FROM HIM YOU DEMON!!! STAY AWAY FROM MY SON!"

Poor Naruto-kun, he's a Jounin but he's still called a monster. Did you notice that Hinata didn't stutter? All of the Rookie nine are Jounin.
