Chapter 1: The Beginning
It was twelve years ago that a demon attacked Konohagakure no Sato. The Fox Demon was the greatest of the bijuu, also known as Kyūbi no Kitsune. During the attack many Konoha shinobi died protecting their loved ones. One of fallen heroes was the Fourth Hokage. Knowing it was impossible to kill a tailed beast, he did the only other thing he could… he sealed it inside of a newborn baby, giving is life in the process. His last wish was that that child would be seen as a hero by the village. That child became known as Uzumaki Naruto…
Time skip: approximately 12 years:
It was a beautiful day in the village of Konoha, they were in peace, the children were happy, and the Academy graduation class was enjoying the last few days before the graduation exam.
Somewhere in the village, was a mischievous blond boy with bright blue eyes. Said boy was, at the moment, covered in paint and running away from the shinobi tracking him. That is, until a certain academy teacher caught up with him…
"NARUTO!" yelled the brunette grabbing the blond. "WHY DID YOU PAINT THE HOKAGE MONUMENT?"
"Hi Iruka-sensei! Eh eh eh eh!" responded Naruto. After all, he had already been caught so it's better prepare for the punishment.
"You idiot! You'll be cleaning the Hokage Mountain, until not even a single drop of paint is left!" ordered Iruka still angry with the blond for defiling the monument.
Later, on the Fourth's head, Naruto was scrubbing with a deflated face. Iruka noticing the slow pace his student was working at, asked his student if he didn't want to go home, to what Naruto replied that he didn't have anyone home waiting for him. So, wanting to brighten the blonde's mood, he suggested: "If you hurry up I'll treat you to ramen at Ichiraku's, how's that sound?"
Naruto instantly perks up and quickens the pace, meaning that now, two hours later, they find themselves sat at Ichiraku's with two steaming bowls of ramen in front of them.
"Hey Naruto?" called Iruka.
"Nani?" responded the boy.
"Why did you paint the Hokage monument? Don't you know what the Hokages are known for?" Iruka was genuinely curious as to what drove the blond to play such prank.
"Of course I know, they were the strongest shinobi of the village, heroes who died protecting Konoha." replied Naruto calmly.
"Then why?"
To that, Naruto gained an air of determination and answered "Because I'm going to be the best Hokage ever, dattebayo!" a small smile appeared in the teachers face. Seeing that the blond grabbed his opportunity, "Ne, ne Iruka-sensei, can you do me a favor?" Puzzled, Iruka frowned. "Will you let me try your hitai-ate?" pleaded the boy.
"No way Naruto, this is the symbol of a shinobi, you'll get your own soon enough." That said they finished their meal silently.
Naruto POV:
It's finally the day… Today the genin graduation exam is held, and I'm a little nervous. I already failed twice, and I really can't take another one, but the final ninjutsu technique is always the one I'm worst at. I simply can't do the Bushin no Jutsu! I don't know why, since the teachers usually don't help me. I tried that technique for years, and it doesn't work!
It's not like I'm stupid or something… I'm no genius, but neither am I a total moron like I pretend to be. I can learn fairly easily when I try, even if I usually don't have anyone to help me. My pretending to be the dead last is for only one reason. The villagers will treat me worse if I act myself, so it's easier to act like an idiot.
I already know that I'm different from them, my wounds heal faster and I usually don't get sick, even if sometimes my food is not as fresh as I wanted, that's the reason I eat ramen all the time. Don't misunderstand me… I LOVE RAMEN, just not three times a day! Argh! I'm ranting with myself, how stupid can that be? But, oh well, as I was thinking… I'm different, so the villagers hate me, and I hate how the villagers hate me. I just want a little bit of respect; I'm tired of the whispers and the angry words, being called a monster, having no friends…
"Uzumaki Naruto. You're next!" called one of the teachers. I was spacing out again!
I'm entering the examination room, sitting behind the desk are Mizuki-sensei and Iruka-sensei. I don't really like Mizuki-sensei, he gives of a weird feeling but he never outright excludes me.
"The technique you must perform is… the Bushin no Jutsu." I hear Iruka-sensei saying, I don't believe that from three different techniques they always chose this one. Alright I must focus… believe it… "Bushin no Jutsu" should I open my eyes? Let's see… Oh no!
"You fail!" Iruka-sensei already sealed my fate.
"Iruka-sensei, maybe we can pass him… he made a clone and this is his third attempt so you know he really wants to be a shinobi" Mizuki-sensei discusses with Iruka-sensei.
"No, it can't be. Everyone else made at least three clones, Naruto only did one, a useless one on top of that. I can't pass him."
Mizuki POV:
It's a great chance that has presented itself to me. I can use that bastard demon fox to get the forbidden scroll, and then dispose of him. I just have to make him trust me.
"Hey Naruto! You know, Iruka didn't fail you on purpose; he just wants you to be strong. Like you, Iruka is an orphan, and knows the hardships of growing without a family."
"I know. But I really wanted to pass this time!"
And here is my cue… "Well, if that's the case I'll let you in on a secret. In the Hokage Tower, there's a scroll called Sacred Scroll, if you learn one technique from that scroll, you will be able to graduate." Now I just have to tell everybody that he stole the scroll, kill him, and take the scroll for myself.
Naruto POV:
It's team assignment day! I finally manage to graduate thanks to that traitor Mizuki-teme. Now I'm waiting for Iruka-sensei to enter and tell me with who I will be placed with. Although, the face of Mizuki-teme when I beat him to a pulp was priceless.
Flashback: I had been training for five hours when Iruka-sensei found me, I only had time to learn the Kage Bushin no Jutsu, so I was hoping that that was enough. Only when Iruka-sensei got close to me, was I able to see his pissed off face.
Something wasn't right, he shouldn't be angry with me for trying to learn a jutsu that would alow me to pass, right? So I played the idiot part, and spilled my beans, telling him that Mizuki was the one who told me about the scroll and the shack.
Just before Iruka-sensei was able to say something, I was pushed out of the way and sensei was pinned with a dozen kunais to the wall. It was then that I saw Mizuki, who was trying to convince me to give him the scroll.
However, I wasn't expecting his next words… "You are the Kyūbi, the demon fox who attacked the village almost twelve years ago!" So I really am different! I am a demon…
"Stop it! It's forbidden to talk about the attack!" Even Iruka-sensei wanted to hide the truth from me. I was so shocked that I didn't react when Mizuki throw a huge shuriken at me. If it hadn't been for Iruka-sensei, I would be dead by now, I was confused and afraid so I ran.
When they caught up with me, I heard them talking, at first I thought that not even Iruka recognized me, but I was wrong. So I decided to protect him, beating Mizuki to a bloody pulp.
So, that's the story behind my graduation. This whole ordeal was classified as a B rank mission by Hokage-jiji. Of course, my classmates don't have a clue. As a consequence, I have all the class staring at me in confusion, as to why I am among them. It doesn't matter anyway, I won't tell them and sensei just entered the classroom.
"I will start reading the teams list: team 1 ..." I tuned him out until I heard my name "Team 7 – Uzumaki Naruto, Haruno Sakura, Uchiha Sasuke; Team 8 …" No, no, no, no, no, no, NO! Why do I have the banshee I pretend to have a crush on and mister broody rookie of year? It could only be worst if I got that infamous perverted and lazy jounin that are always reading that porn book!
"You can wait here for your new senseis, they should arrive soon." That said, he strolled out of the room. This distribution is a pain in the ass! I'll go and have a stare contest duck butt of a Uchiha, so I jump in front of him and glare at him. He even has the gall to glare back the bastard! What I wasn't counting was being pushed forward landing exactly in Sasuke-teme's mouth… wow, it doesn't feel that bad after all… better play safe! "Blergh! What was your idea you bastard, if y…" Hummmm… I'm feeling really scary vibes from behind me… maybe it's better if I run… "Ahhhhhh! Don't kill me please!" Finally safe in the corridor, I lean back against the wall, leaning on the opposite wall a few meters down is the perverted and lazy jounin I dread having as a teacher. Definitly is safer outside than inside for me right now, so let's relax until team seven is called.
Two hours have past and many teams exited the room, so I decided it's safe to go back inside. When I look inside I realize we are the only team still waiting, and it's obvious the teme is almost at his bursting point, so I'll make a prank to alleviate the mood. I grab the eraser nearest to me, and hold it with the door. Of course, no jounin would fall for this, but at least my team mates will be a little more entertained. So, when I turn around to see a hand opening the door I freeze. The lazy bastard who was reading for the past two and half hours got covered in chalk… it's this for real?
"My first impression is… I hate you!"
