A/N: My first ever story in this fanfiction! Yay~ . Yesterday I saw this adorable picture of Naruto and Kakashi making a pinky promise, when Naruto was a little boy and when Kakashi was in the ANBU. I thought "Damn I'm writing about this!" So now I'm writing about it :)

Disclaimer: I don't own Naruto. Even if I wish for it for my birthday! Damn, how small are my dreams? I'm so sad.. I need to get a life.

So anyways... The story! Here it is!


When Naruto was a little boy, everyone hated him, cursed him and wished he was the one that died, during the Nine Tails' invasion. Instead of the Fourth Hokage and the other ninjas who participated; in protecting the village.

He was so lonely and was always bullied, his hatred gradually grew towards the village and citizens in it. Naruto couldn't forgive them for all the hardship that's being placed on him at an early age.

One a normal, sunny day, Naruto ran to the mask stable, he gazed up in awe when he saw an ANBU mask. His face lightened up. 'I want one!'

He walked towards the mask, only to be pushed by the bigger, buffed owner. "Get lost boy!" he shouted, noticing Naruto wanted the mask. "You want that?!" he grabbed it and threw it at Naruto. "Take it you brat and don't come back!"

In defense the boy put his arms up to protect himself, closed his eyes shut and waited for a thump. Nothing happened.

"What do you think you're doing?"

The boy gazed up and saw an ANBU officer holding the mask. He looked around him and noticed the crowd around them, gasping and whispering, why the officer was defending a rebel like him. As the officer looked behind him, Naruto ran out of the crowd and headed towards an alleyway; he sat down and curled up. "Why does everyone hate me?"

"You forgot this Naruto."

The blonde haired boy looked up in surprise, seeing the ANBU officer from earlier. He covered his face; "Don't hit me! I wasn't going to steal it!"

The ANBU officer knelt down and offered the masked back. "I'm not going to hurt you.. Naruto-kun."

"You're not?" he asked, lowering his hands, looking at the masked man shaking his head.

The officer couldn't be identified since he was wearing that cat mask to deprive people from seeing his face. Talk about being discrete.

"No. Why would I?"

Naruto wiped his eyes and cheeks before sniffling. "So what are you going to do?" he frowned.

"I'm going to make you, take this mask from me." he replied, offering the mask to Naruto. "You wanted this mask didn't you? Don't worry I paid it for you. So you can just take it from me."

Slowly the boy took it and held it close to his chest, he looked at the ANBU officer and frowned. "Why are you talking to a kid like me? No one wants to talk to me.. they think I'm a demon."

He crossed his arms. "Well, I'm not like the others in this village. I don't resent you nor do I want to kill you."

"You're the first person I've ever talked to like this.. ya' know?" he looked down at the mask. "Since you know my name, what's yours? It's only fair."

"White Wolf. That's my code name, I can't tell you my real name. Sorry."

The Jinchūriki tilted his head and arched an eyebrow. "You don't look like a wolf, but you do have silver hair." he pointed out.

His companion laughed and ruffled Naruto's hair. "I don't need to look like a wolf to be named that. It's just a code name."

"Really? Strange, they come up with the weirdest names."

He laughed once more. "You can say that again."

Naruto stood back up and looked down at the kneeling ninja, he grinned. "I'm going to be a ninja one day!"

The officer looked up; "Tell you what. Let's make a promise."

Naruto cocked his head. "Promise?"

He nodded. "I promise you I'll be your guide and friend when you become a ninja!"

"Really? Yo-You mean it?!" the boy exclaimed in happiness as his mouth widened.

"Yeah I mean it!" He offered a pinky promise.

Without hesitation Naruto did the same, as their small fingers entwined they smirked at one another. "No going back now! White Wolf-san." Naruto reminded him.

"Don't worry I'm a man of my words!"

Six Year Later...

"These are the member of Team Seven: Sasuke Uchiha, Sakura Haruna and Naruto Uzumaki." Iruka read out.

Naruto rested his left cheek on his palm and looked outside the window. "It's been six year since we made our promise. I wonder if he still remembers."

'I'm a man of my words!'

The gennin closed his eyes and bit his lower lip. "You better be." he whispered to himself.

An Hour Later...

"Naruto what kind of prank was that?!" Sakura shrieked. 'All right! A classic prank pulled off, by Naruto Uzumaki!'

A chalk eraser landed flat on Kakashi's hair as he entered the classroom. He took the chalk eraser off his hair and held his chin. "My first impression of you are..." his students leaned in. "...annoying" he finished.

Their jaws dropped. Sasuke gave a bored impression at Kakashi, 'Is he really a jounin?'

After Training...

Sasuke and Sakura had gone home, whilst Naruto was still tied to the log. From morning to dusk he had been shouting on the top of his lungs; "Oi Kaka-sensei! Get me out of here!"

A smoke appeared and revealed his teacher reading, a rather perverted book. "Nani, Naruto?" He asked, not looking at him.

The gennin gritted his teeth as his fists clenched tighter together. "I'm hungry!" he exclaimed.

Kakashi lowered his book and looked at the furious Naruto. "What do you want me to do about it?" He lifted his finger up to stop Naruto from talking. "I'm not feeding you."

A loud grumble was made and Naruto tried to wiggle out. "Oi Kaka-sensei stop reading porn right now!"

"This isn't porn it's a romance novel." He corrected.

Naruto stuck his tongue out. "Romance my ass, it's porn! You giggling pervert!"

"Watch it Naruto! The person who wrote this is a Sannin. So show some respect."

"Hmp. Sannin, yeah right! Another pervert more like!" He shot back, realizing his teacher wasn't listening. "Oi Kaka-sensei!"

His teacher covered his mouth behind his hand and gave a giggle as his cheeks went bright red. "Gehehe."

Naruto pouted and looked away. "Only if that ANBU officer was my teacher." he grumbled.

Kakashi's visible eye widened and he closed his book, before kneeling down in front of Naruto. "ANBU, you say? What's his name?"

"White Wolf. He was the first person who ever talked to me! Also he promised he would guide me to become a really powerful ninja!" He replied. "Seems like he's forgotten about me though."

Kakashi took out a kunai out of his pouch, making Naruto gulp. In a split second the ropes fell on the ground. Naruto stretched his body before he looked down at his teacher, who was deep in his thoughts. "Can I go now, Kaka-sensei?" he asked quietly.

His teacher nodded and Naruto decided to run before his teacher changes his mind.

All alone Kakashi stared up at the sky. 'He still remembers, huh?'

Seven Years Later...

It was Kakashi's second day as Hokage and well, he couldn't complain about it. Literally. As he stacked his finished paperworks on the desk, there was a light knock on the door. He looked at the door. 'I wonder if Tsunade-same had the same constant disturbance.' "Come in." he called out.

The door opened and Naruto went in. "Kaka-sensei, can you do me a favor?" he asked.

"What is it?" He frowned, placing his hand on his hip.

Naruto walked closer to Kakashi with his eyes lowered. "Remember the White Wolf? He whispered.

"Erm. Yeah, I do actually." Kakashi's face expression changed. 'Where is he going with this?'

"I need to know if he died on a mission or he just forgot about me. So can I see his file?"

Kakashi walked to the desk and got his file out, with a deep sigh he gave it to Naruto.

The jounin looked at it in confusion. The file labelled 'Hatake Kakashi'. "Sensei you gave me the wrong file."

The Sixth Hokage shook his head.

Naruto opened the file and read through his teacher's great achievements. 'Is he just showing off?". He flicked through and came across Kakashi's time being in the ANBU. "Hatake Kakashi, code name; White-" his eyes widened and watered. "Wolf."

"That's right Naruto."

Quickly the boy dropped the file and hugged Kakashi. "You kept your promise! You did guide me when I become a ninja!" he sobbed.

"I'm a man of my words, remember?" He whispered, patting his student's back.

After a few minutes, Naruto pulled away and wiped his tears. "Why didn't you tell me?"

Kakashi held his chin and hummed for an answer. "Because I didn't want you to know..?"

"More like, because you were the biggest pervert in the ANBU history." Naruto teased.

"NANI?! I'm not a pervert! The books are romance novels! Romance!" He exclaimed on the top of his lungs, getting red and clenching his fists.

Fin.
