Mr. Uzumaki

Disclaimer: I do not own any the charters appearing in this story.

A young man is standing in front of the Hidden Village Council. He looks around at the faces of the clan heads. The young man can see their hidden joy under their poker faces. He moves towards, where Tsunade is sitting at. She has an angary face but the female Hokage's face soften when she sees Naruto. Tsunade took a deep breath before speaking to everyone.

Tsunade lifts a gravel and pounds on her desk. Naruto looks toward Tsunade but he feels the hateful glares behind him. He hates this council for what they did to him over the years. Naruto knew something bad is going to happen. The young shinobi can see Tsunade is showing a bit of emotion on her face.

Tsunade speaking to everyone, "Honorable council, earlier today the Fire Daimyo made the decision to banish Genin Naruto Uzumaki from Konoha. He will have two days to leave Konoha if Genin Uzumaki is still in Konoha. The ANBU have been order to kill him on sight. If there any question, this is the time to ask them."

Naruto shouts, "What are the reasons behind this banishment?! I am loyal to Konoha since I was born! I should have the right to defend my self in front of the Fire Daimyo!"

A male voice reply, "you do not have the right to defend yourself against the Fire Daimyo. The Daimyo's word is law to everyone in the Land of Fire. He made his decision and you will follow his command."

Naruto sees an old man with bandages around his face. The young shinobi knew this old man was very dangerous. The Third Hokage told him to stay away from the man named Danzou Shimura. Naruto wonder if this bastard was the driving force of his banishment. He turns back to Tsunade for some answer.

Tsunade speaking to the council, "The Fire Daimyo is afraid that Genin Uzumaki is losing control of the Kyuubi's power. After the fight with Sasuke Uchiha, the amount of the demon fox's power was felt all the way to Konoha. He wants to protect Konoha from the demon's power at all cost. The Daimyo thinks that banishment is the best option."

Naruto argues the Fire Daimyo's point, "I use the Kyuubi's power during Chunin Exams against Neji Hyuga. I did not lose control during that fight with Neji. The Fire Daimyo is using excuses get me kickout of Konoha."

Danzo slams his cane against the ground, "This council does not want to hear this child disrespect the Fire Daimyo!"

Naruto yells at Danzo, "When did this council learn to respect people? Everybody in this room disrespect The Fourth Hokage's wishes. Hell, people in the village disrespect the Old Man's law about me. This council is full of themselves if they know what respect is."

"You nothing more then an insolence child that does not know how the world works!"

"If I am an insolence child then you are an old fossil that cannot get with the times!"

Tsunade slams her fist on the table, "Enough, I will not have anymore out burst in the council room! I hear anyone said anything in this room without my approvable. I will have them remove from this room. Do I make myself clear?!"

Everybody went silent after Tsunade's order. Naruto gives Danzo one last look before turning back Tsunade. The female Hokage looks at everyone before looking at Naruto Tsunade let out a sigh as she begins to speak.

Tsunade said, "I made a case to the Fire Daimyo about Naruto. I defend him from number of complaints made by the council. I told the Fire Daimyo that Naruto is an important part of this village's defense. Everything I told the Fire Daimyo about Naruto fell on deaf ears."

After a few seconds of silences, Naruto rips off his headband. The young man throws it on the ground, then he stomps on the headband repeat. Naruto kicks the headband across the floor. The young man storms out of the council's room. Everyone looks at the door where Naruto left. Tsunade rubs her forehead as the council's members whispers to each other.

A young woman with pink hair stands up, "Is Naruto the only one getting punish for his actions?"

Tsunade looks at Rina Haruno, "None of Naruto's teammates are getting punish for their actions. Sasuke will be getting house arrest. He will not be an active shinobi for three years. But, the young man still can train under watchful eyes of his jonin teacher."

"Are you telling me that Sasuke is getting nothing more then a slap on the wrist?"

Tsunade gives Rina a stern look, 'The Fire Daimyo is the one, who made the final decision on Sasuke's punishment. If I was you, I will watch what I say next."

Rina sits back down after what the Hokage said. The young woman knew a threat when she hears one. Rina wonders what was said between the daimyo and Tsunade. The young woman did not listen to the rest of the meeting. Rina needs to find way keep Naruto from hating Konoha. But in Rina's heart, she already knew it was too late.

As the meeting continue, Naruto using the back alleys of Konoha. He has no idea, what the Fire Daimyo has order to reveal about him. Naruto had a bad feeling that all his friends may have turn on him. As he about to turn into another alley, Naruto spots Kakashi talking to Jiraiya. The young shinobi hides behind a trash dumpster. Naruto listens in what his teachers are saying.

Kakashi said, "With Naruto binging banish, what are you going do now."

Jiraiya reply, "I will be heading out to Yugakure see an informant. I cannot believe how reckless Naruto was in using the Kyuubi's power. Lucky, the seal holds the Kyuubi's power this time."

Kakashi raises an eyebrow, "You were the one, who taught Naruto how to use Kyuubi's power."

Jiraiya point his finger at Kakashi, "Yes, but I did not tell him to use it on Konoha shinobi. Naruto use Kyuubi's power way too much in his battles. Sooner or later, he will lose control of that power. I told the Fire Daimyo that Naruto is unstable jinchuriki. If those seals fail…"

Kakashi gives Jiraiya a questionable look, "Seals, what kind of seals are we talking about?!"

The older man looks at Kakashi, "You really think Naruto's acting like a fool is part of who he is. I seen how the real Naruto thinks about Konoha. Trust me, it is best for the village those seals stay on Naruto. He could rival his father in a couple years of training. Naruto going be a monster among shinobi. I am scary, how Naruto will act without those seals."

As his teachers walk down the street, Naruto gets up from his hiding place. The young ex-shinobi kicks the dumpster as he heads for his home. Naruto felt like a fool in trusting Jiraiya and Kakashi. What brother Naruto were the seals that Jiraiya mention before. He had no idea when the seals were place on him.

Naruto thinking, "I need to find someone that knows about seals. May I can get them off my body?"

Naruto slowly approach his home then he sees Sakura and the rest of his friends. The young man hides himself, so he can hear them. Naruto did notice that Neji, Kiba, Choji and Shikamaru were not there. He did see Lee and Shino in Sakura's group. Naruto notice Ino, Tenten and Hinata near the front of his house.

Sakura said, "Naruto is not in his home. He could be still in the council meeting."

Ino pushes her blond hair behind her ear, "Why do you want to talk with Naruto?"

Sakura reply, "I want hear his side of the story. When I testify for Naruto, they were trying to make Naruto into monster."

Sakura sits down on the stairs as everybody look at the pink hair kunoichi. She has a worry look on her face. Sakura knew the truth about Naruto's burden. The Fire Daimyo told her, if she said anything about what happen in court. The Hokage has the go head to kill her. Ino sits down beside Sakura and puts her arm around Sakura's shoulder. The blond hair kunoichi let out a long sigh.

Ino said, "I think you should forget about Naruto. He is done as a shinobi of Konoha. Sakura, you have done everything to help Naruto out."

Sakura shakes her head, "I wish, I could have done more for him."

Ino looks at Hinata with a face full of sorrow. The young woman has a crush on Naruto since they were kids. Ino guess that Hinata wanted to tell Naruto about her feeling for him. The young kunoichi knew the other people in the group wanted to thank him. Naruto care for his teammates, even Sasuke with of all his problems.

Ino got an idea, "Naruto could be at Ichiraku eating lunch. We should check there."

Sakura wipe tears from her eyes, "He might be eating ramen by himself. Let's go see how Naruto fair with the council."

Everyone leaves Naruto's home, without seeing Naruto exiting the alley. Naruto wipes away his tears after hearing that Sakura try to help him. As he wipes his tears away, someone hits him in the head. The young shinobi hit the ground as he about to black out. Naruto sees someone that he thought was on his side.

As Naruto slips into unconscious, "Why?"

The only the answer that Naruto got is a kick to the ribs. Then the groups of shinobis start kicking and stomping the young jinchuriki into the ground. After few seconds the brutal onslaught, a samurai walks up to the attackers. He looks at Naruto then at his house. The samurai looks the leader of the shinobi team before talking to him.

The samurai said, "I hope you remember the Fire Daimyo's plan. The jinchuriki is to die when his home is on fire. Not for him to beaten beforehand."

The leader laughs at the samurai's worry, "We are making sure this monster does not escape from his home. The Fire Daimyo's samurai worry too much. We have this under control so do not worry."

The samurai gives the leader a stern look, "Just do you job and I will not worry. After all, it is not my head that is on the line."

The leader signal to his men to pick up Naruto. The team move quickly to set up Naruto's death. The leader looks at the samurai before he heads to his mission. The samurai heads back to his master. He has a frown on his face. Konoha shinobis always let a bad taste in his mouth.

The samurai spits on the ground, "Fools, they are to full themselves. I wish, they would do their jobs be done with it."

As the samurai left the area, the team of shinobi set up Naruto's death scene. They pour gas around his room as one of the shinobi rig his stove. The leader may sure Naruto is still out. He wanted to tie down the young man, but the risk is too high. The leader looks at Naruto with a smirk.

The leader said, "Nothing personal, I am just doing my job."

A teammate said, "Everything is set, we better leave before his friend return."

The leader signal his men to leave the apartment. As the team leave, the leader kick Naruto for one last time. He leaves Naruto on the floor with gas around him. Naruto groans as he tries to push himself off the floor. The young shinobi need to get out of this death trap.

Meanwhile, Sakura and friends head back to Naruto's home. They check out Ichiraku, but the owner has not seen him. Naruto's friends worry about Naruto's safety. The group heard rumors that Naruto was banish by the Fire Daimyo. Sakura hopes that was not the case. As the group got closer to Naruto's home, they hear an explosion. Sakura takes off toward the explosion with her friends right behind her.

When Sakura arrives in front of Naruto's home. She sees couple of shinobi trying to put the fire out. ANBU trying to secure the area around the burning building. She spots Kakashi talking to an ANBU. Sakura runs over to Kakashi if he knows anything.

Kakashi ask, "Yes, my whole team saw him enter the building. Then the explosion happens, we did not see Naruto leave the building."

Sakura falls to her knees as the building collapse to the ground. Everyone watches, no one said a word. The shinobi around the building just staring at the burning wreck. Sakura found Ino hugging her from behind. Tenten has Hinata's head in her lap after she pass out. Sakura looks at the remains of Naruto's home.

Ino barely hears her friend asking, "Why did this have to happen?"
