Naruto: The Alternate life

by Renjilore17

What if Naruto actually had good teacher? What if that teacher was powerful? What if said teacher could teach Naruto to harness his father's powers and more? Alternate Universe, strong Naruto, but slow to rst Naruto story. Reviews would be great. If not enjoy anyways. Might be a harem in the sequel idk, depends on what you guys want.

1. The Start(duh)

Ok, welcome to my story. My old Authors note was entirely deleted because I am an idiot. Welcome to my world. The whole story is going through an edit from my Beta-Setsuna Eien

The story pic AND it's full pics, on my bio, were/are done by gold_girl_1997 on twitter.

I will answer any reviews, and post them(or try to). I also have a poll up. Naruto will most likely not have a gf in this story, but in the shippuden part he has an option of a harem. 7,5,3,2, or 1. Simple.

Disclaimer- English is not my first language.

Prologue

We look upon a life, a story of hardship, and we come upon a tale of sorrow. I only ever saw such things in my life. That was before I met you, Naruto. I am writing you a letter of explanation and possibly a gift of hope. When you were born, we had just finished a war. You will come to know it as the third great ninja war. We fought, and I would say we fought well, but my village lost. But that isn't the point. You see I defected from my village when the Kazekage, the Kage of the Hidden Sand, tried to use a jutsu from a forbidden scroll to effectively wipe out Shukaku, the one tail. Sounds good right? We should want to kill a city destroying demon. However, I had a problem with it. Well as I am sure you know, my nephew, son of my sister, Gaara, is the one tailed Jinchūriki. I always felt bad for you vessels, with everyone hating you for no reason. This act would not only kill my nephew, it is an act that would kill an innocent child. Suffice to say I stole the scroll and ran off. My sister died soon after. When I was only 15, I became a missing nin. Five years later, I would see you on that fateful day. Your lineage however, is what I wanted to dwell on. You see, little chunin, you are special. Your father, Minato, died to save the village and as you know, he trapped the ninetails in you. Instilled is more like it, isn't it?

Now there's another issue at hand; among those of which we have already covered. You see, your father couldn't trap the entire ninetails inside of you with the technique he used. The fourth hokage could only take half of its chakra at first, using the Death Reaper Seal, but the Kyubi proved to be too much and it pulled an extra fourth percentage of its chakra back. That is when your father's old teammate, a Hyuga, came to fight beside him and offered to sacrifice his being to strengthen you, a baby. His son and only child. Because of this, an extra twenty-five percent of Kyuubi chakra is inside you, making a total of seventy-five percent.

The Hyuga instilled his chakra and being into you, forming your partial bloodline. Now instead of your normal bloodline being Namikaze and Uzumaki, you have a separated and partial chakra line of the Hyuga clan. Not much else is known about this. Hopefully you will figure this out along the way. As such, I do not know when you will read this. You have grown on me. I like that. I haven't felt like I belonged since I was young. You and Sarutobi have shown me a lot. So, I leave this to you, among the many things I have, and will have, taught you. Naruto, never give up. Keep being you.

Chapter one: The Start

(Samri)

I ran through the forest of Konoha, it was snowing heavily and I was being slowed down by the wind. Funny, I thought, I own the wind. Today was my first day back after my first mission for the Leaf. I came from the Akatsuki, it was my last day there and I had left with very little warning. I had told them I quit and they did not like losing an advanced nin. It took me three days to out fox them. Evading the Akatsuki is not an easy feat. I had hoped that Itachi could soon enact what he and the elders of the Leaf had planned. He could get all eyes off of me.

At age fifteen, I had left the Sand. Now five years later, I was an undercover nin for the Leaf. I reminisced on this before I realized I was tired and stopped for a minute. I panted and blew at the wind in frustration. I decided to hop down to lower branches to get out of it. Noticing the wind was less down here, I sat on a branch and rested.

"Hey, if you're really a Hyuga then show us your Byakugan!" A kid taunted, next to two friends.

"But, if you're not gonna, don't look at us." One of the others, an ugly boy, shouted.

"Yeah!" The third boy sneered.

I looked down and saw a girl with dark blue hair and pale eyes, a Hyuga I guessed, standing there looking terrified..

"Your eyes are creepy."

"I bet you are just some kind of monster aren't you." The first one sneered.

Tears started to well up in the young Hyuga's eyes.

"Yeah, a Byakugan monster!" Ugly rat boy shouted.

They all laughed as she fell to the ground sobbing. Then I saw a young loud boy with blonde hair and whiskers run up. He was swinging, I guess, and had seen the little milk drinkers at their horrible games.

"Hey, cut it out!" He shouted.

"Hey look at the shrimp. Who are you?" They asked.

"I'm Naruto Uzumaki and I'm the future Hokage." He exclaimed with much passion.

I smirked seeing this kid and waited to see what he did.

"Oh, the future Hokage huh? Come on what are you, stupid?" Ugly, one and two said.

"I'll show you!" He shouted. "Clone Jutsu!"

Two tiny clones popped out and I almost laughed out loud. They couldn't contain their own laughter when one of the tiny blondies challenged them. It was cute. Naruto looked up at them and was immediately punched in the face. He went down and I narrowed my eyes. For the next few minutes they played around with his scarf, trampling on it.

When I looked to see the Hyuga gazing upon the fallen boy with admiration; no love. I grew angry. I was not any better for not interfering but a ninja, especially the one who wanted to be Hokage, couldn't let others fight his battles. But at this point I threw some Kunai at the twat's feet. They screamed and ran off leaving the two. Eventually Naruto woke up.

He shot up. "Hey wait! Hold on! This time I'll do a super duper jutsu!"

He noticed they were gone and looked sad.

"Are-are yo-ou ok?" The timid Hyuga stuttered.

"Yeah, it's nothing. I'm used to it." He rubbed his face.

"Your scarf, those three boys...they messed it up. I'm really sorry." Boys? I thought one was a girl.

"Nah forget it." He got up and started to run off before she whimpered.

"I-I just wanted to say thank you." She said looking down, clutching the scarf.

He laughed and said it was nothing before running off. I focused my dojutsu on him before he ran off. I saw his destiny and what he could become. He had a weird, quite awful chakra reading. A dark aura about him. I had seen it before, but for the life of me I could not remember it. I sighed and continued my journey. I had to tell Sarutobi of this boy. As I neared the village I looked to my left to see the mountain that held the faces of four men.

I rounded the corner to the Hokage's office and saw him on the balcony. The mansion was still being painted from a beige to a red. He saw me and nodded. I landed in front of him. I could feel the Anbu nearby. He held out his hand and I pulled out a scroll and nodded. It was the information he needed, but that couldn't be spoken out loud. I looked him in the eyes and realized that this one man held my trust. He was the first to help me and honestly, he was my father's friend. I had heard a lot about him from my father.

"Hiru, we need to speak," I stated bluntly. "alone."

"Would you like to join me for some ramen?" He spoke, waving his hands, dismissing the Anbu as he walked towards the stairs.

"What is with you and ramen, old man?"

"A youngster brought to light its deliciousness." He stated.

*In the forest, somewhere, the tiny blonde boy sneezed. *

"Yeah, yeah, ok Hiru Sensei. I'll join. However, we do need to speak about a certain powerful child. His soul is dark." I spoke quietly walking into his office, where the ramen was already waiting.

"You speak of Naruto? Yes, I know of him. This must be of Kami, because I believe you are the right one for the job. I normally have Anko or Kakashi watch him. However, due to missions, they cannot always keep an eye out. I know you do not like being around kids, and I know why, but, Samri-kun, I need you in this. He needs to be watched. He's a good child with a good heart. Minato would want his son kept safe by the most powerful and trustworthy ninja I know."

"Sensei, I'm definitely nowhere near the most powerful."

"Oh, but you are my dear. The most powerful one I trust. You rival the white fang. This boy is special. You need to protect him."

"What is so special about him?" I asked.

"He is a Jinchuriki." He stated.

My eyes widened and I nodded slowly. I knew I had to do it but that didn't mean I had to like it.

"I really dislike children, Hiru, but I will do as you ask." I turned to leave, not even have touched my ramen before I heard him speak one last time for the night.

"You will learn to love him. No interaction until the time is right. I trust you will know in your heart when that is."

"Hai, Sensei." With that I jumped out the window.

The months would go on. I would watch this little ninja try his hardest to be accepted. People calling him demons and such. I felt anger towards this but I did not interfere. One day they almost killed him but two Anbu stepped in. One man with white hair and a dog mask and a purple haired woman with a snake mask. I could smell the power on the dog Anbu and almost followed him until I heard a voice behind me.

"Are you stalking children just to do it or is there some meaning behind it?" I recognized the voice.

"Respect your superiors, Anko."

"You are only a few ranks above me and not even from this village so don't even. You chose the next Akatsuki spy I heard. Any word of who it may be?" She smiled jokingly.

"Classified Anko. Speaking of which why are you following the boy?" I turned to her and rolled my eyes at her when I saw she had a whole bag of dangos.

One day the world would be at peace and she would get fat. I just knew it. As she chewed, she eyed me up and down. I rolled my eyes, not wanting to deal with her playfulness right now.

"He is like me. I worry about him. I am glad some Anbu were here. I'd have killed them." She said quietly with a hint of anger in her voice.

I turned back to Naruto, he was crying and his clothes were torn. I bit my lip and shook my head.

"Hey Anko, he has a home yeah? Can you keep him busy?"

"Sure, this will be easy." She hopped down and started to flirt with him.

I sighed at her antics. I knew she wouldn't do anything but she was going to corrupt the child. I started out and soon came upon a clothing store. I stepped in and saw a rack with clothes that should fit his size. I then realized how stupid his orange looked. He needed something that shouted Naruto, with the Uzumaki swirl on it, but looked better and didn't make him stand out. I turned to the clerk and asked if he had anything with the Uzumaki symbol on it. He said he could make some if I needed. I nodded and asked if he had any old black clothes to fit a child. He nodded and looked at me questioningly. I told him I would take them all and asked if he could customize some more. When he asked who it was for I told him that, for his services and silence, meaning no questions, I would pay him 10000 ryo extra per visit.

(A ryo is worth .09 USD so this would be 900 USD)

"Of course, my lady no questions! Now, do you need anything else?" He started sucking up so I just paid him and walked out.

Tucking his new clothes under my arm, I jumped to the roof tops and looked around. I found Naruto heading to his home and ran ahead of him. I snuck in and scrunched my nose at the sight of his poverty. I quickly moved to his bed dropping the clothes off before I heard the door. I shunshined out of the small bedroom and onto the roof. I heard a gasp and smirked to myself as I headed towards my normal stakeout area.

Months passed. I watched the child as he attended the academy. He was bold and loud mouthed. I couldn't quite hear today's lesson. However, a few minutes into it, Naruto throw a paper airplane out the window. I grumbled as I heard Iruka's raised voice. I heard laughter behind me and turned around. I sighed, knowing already who it was.

"Anko... Why must you always stalk me?"

"I just can't help it. I can smell the disdain you have for this village. You only respect one person and care about a minute few."

"It was a rhetorical question, snake girl. Also, my allegiance rest with this village. One day I'll be a true leaf ninja, you'll see." I felt her bristle at that and then her presence disappeared.

My life while watching Naruto went by fast. I did not intervene even when I felt the need to in several instances. Though, if I am to be completely honest with myself, I could not even think of speaking to him. I did not want this job. The Hokage knew I did not like children. Not after what I experienced in my own village.

I held my tongue and did my duty to the only man I trusted. In my opinion, he is the only leader worth the Kage title. Hiru Sensei and I were close. Sometimes he would even call me by my first name alone, without the kun. He was fun to be around and even more fun to follow. I would follow the man to the grave if I had to. He had not given me many orders; most were requests. I accepted every one of them, of course.

Roughly five years have passed in a blur of his rebelliousness and stubbornness. I was twenty-five now. Naruto was twelve. Naruto had gone through the academy but was not doing so well. It was his third time! Naruto had failed, again. I was surprised that he couldn't even do a clone. I was upset for the kid who was now about age twelve soon to be thirteen. I shook my head and took off towards his home. That's when the true beginning of Naruto's story tripped and fell into place.

When I hadn't noticed that Naruto had returned, I cursed and ran back. I soon came upon him on a swing, crying. I growled. He was a ninja! He needed to act like one. I watched and waited. He stood up and walked off. I followed quietly until he came upon a white-haired teacher. It was Mizuki. I couldn't hear what they were saying but I did see that it was serious. I never trusted Mizuki and so when they parted, I followed Naruto. I would have anyways, I guess.

We came up to the Hokage's mansion and I witnessed him break in. I gasped and ran inside only to find Hiru Sensei getting up with a bloody nose.

"Sensei, what happened?!" I yelled.

"Follow him. This isn't like him. Something is up." He spoke out of breath while dabbing his bloody nose with his shirt sleeve.

I nodded and took off. Very soon I came upon Iruka and Naruto speaking.

"Naruto, where did you get that scroll?" Iruka asked him sternly with a hint of urgency.

"Oh this? Mizuki Sensei told me about it and this place. He said if I show you this skill, I'll definitely pass!" He said excitedly.

Iruka heard the kunai sound at the same time that I did and pushed Naruto out of the way. I pulled out my fans. I dual wielded fans with blades. Known as Tessenjutsu I combined such with fuinjutsu. And that was my basic abilities. I readied myself, waiting. Mizuki came out of the trees and Iruka ordered Naruto to not hand over the scroll. I saw it and recognized it as a forbidden scroll, much like the one I stole. I truly hoped Mizuki wouldn't get it. I was ordered to not interfere with anything unless it was life threatening which meant that Iruka had to handle it.

I had opened my forbidden scroll. and learned the techniques. I only knew of one other person that learned from it since it was created by the second Kazekage. My first Sensei, Pakura. She was amazing and was the only person who accepted my love of my comrade, love, and teammate, Maki. I turned my focus back to them as I heard Iruka yell. Mizuki was telling Naruto what he was. I was getting ticked now. I started hand seals to help contain the nine-tails. I hadn't done this in a while but I felt the need to. I also hoped it worked on Naruto. I had basics for Gaara down, but Sarutobi had to show me a seal for this Jinchuriki.

I saw Mizuki throw his somewhat oversized throwing star at Naruto. The boy was firing up and I could see the seal on his stomach breaking. Just as Iruka was running in front of the weapon, I shouted out my attack and moved fast.

"Kousokuchi!" Swift release. Ups my speed. "Bukigura Fuin! Iron spear!"

I summoned a spear and used swift release to throw it. It sped up until it was right in the middle of the throwing star, stopping it and slamming it into the ground. Iruka looked surprised but then turned his attention to Naruto. I turned my attention to the pathetic waste of space.

I heard more kunais shooting towards the two nin and I jumped down from the trees and sped over to their spot before yelling out Furooseigyo. I swung both of my fans, spinning and doing a swift dance, throwing the kunai back at Mizuki. He dodged it and disappeared.

"Naruto just ran off. Go protect him. I will handle this." Iruka said to me making me turn.

I nodded, not speaking a word, and jumped back into the trees. I was sure I would get a mouthful for letting Naruto out of my sight in the first place to steal the scroll. I ran towards the boy looking for him. When I finally found him, he was sitting behind a tree, hiding. I landed in front of him and for the first time, he saw me.

"I won't give you the scroll!" He shouted firmly with a hint of fear as his grip tightened around the scroll.

"I wouldn't ask you too. I was told to protect you." I stated about to sit down but then Iruka and Mizuki showed up.

Naruto was shaking and looked at both them.

"I... I'm a monster." He whispered. I shook my head but he glared with more hurt and anger in his eyes than I had seen in a person for years.

"There's no way the demon wouldn't use the power of that scroll!" Mizuki sneered.

"Yeah, the demon fox would do that." Iruka grunted.

Naruto looked down. His own sensei had just stated such a bleak outlook on him. I held my breath.

"But, Naruto is different. He is...I've acknowledged him as one of my most excellent students! He may not be the smartest, he may be clumsy, but he isn't the demon, he is a hidden leaf ninja!"

Naruto was crying at this point. Iruka was beaten up, so I had assumed they had fought before they showed up. I did not know this, but me showing up and interfering changed the course of Naruto's life. I saw Mizuki pull out another kunai. Iruka didn't move. I was getting tired of this and when he ran to stab him. I flicked my fan so it blew the weapon away. I was just starting to walk up to attack him when Naruto came out of nowhere and jumped him.

"Don't touch Iruka sensei! I'll kill you!"

"Haha I will kill someone like you a thousand times over!" Mizuki yelled.

"Try it trash! I'll return the pain a thousand times over." He moved his hands into a cross sign.

I gasped as I knew what he was going to do. Was he going to pull it off? Mizuki yelled for him to do it and Naruto smirked. Let me tell you, as a jounin, believe what I say, please. There were a thousand shadow clones.

"Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!"

Mizuki looked scared and I walked to Iruka as Naruto easily finished him off. Iruka asked him to come over and as the young boy walked over, Iruka asked him to close his eyes. He did and me and his Sensei's eyes met for a moment as he pulled out a headband. I couldn't help but smile to myself as he told Naruto to open his eyes. Naruto finally achieved what he wanted. He cheered and gave Iruka a hug.

A few days went by after this, when I woke up. I was on the roof of Naruto's building when he found me. I looked at him annoyed.

"How did you find me Naruto?"

"I come up here sometimes. You were the lady that saved me and Iruka-Sensei."

"I was, yes. You are the nine tails jinchuriki."

"What's that?"

At that moment a raven came to me to give me a message. It was from the Hokage requesting my presence. I told Naruto I had to go. He smiled and bowed. I looked at his clothes and tilted my head. He did not, in fact, use the clothes I bought him. His shirt was the tee-shirt that I had given him but underneath was mesh. He had his Leaf headband on his arm. Down his wrist he had blue bands that swirled around his arm and up to his elbows. On his waist he had what looked like a partial cape but it was torn. He had the black pants I gave him on except they were cut at the knees and he had leg warmers on; blue of course.

"Naruto, where did you get all of that?" I asked.

"I don't know where I got the bottoms and the top, but Iruka gave me this other stuff as a graduation present." He grinned and I smiled. I turned to leave.

"Hey, lady! I didn't catch your name!"

"Samri. Samri the Sandokuin." I said before taking off.

When I arrived at the Hokage's mansion, I did not see the Hokage himself. As it turned out, I was not called in by him, but by a man with a ponytail. He stood there dressed in what looked to be a tan vest, except it had what appeared to be fur at the top. He was wearing his jonin vest underneath with mesh under that. He had normal black pants underneath that. He also had scars, that looked like claw marks across his face. He smelled of sage and jasmine. When he spoke, it was full of wisdom and I immediately felt stupid, which is hard for me.

"The Third will be back soon. We know you saved Naruto. Thank you Samri."

"Who are you?" I asked, annoyed.

"Shikaku Nara. My son is in the same year as your student." He smiled, reading through some paperwork.

"What student, I-"

I was interrupted. "Naruto is your student of course. I need you to train him up because his life is about to be in a slew of missions, with dangers far more imminent than this village." Sarutobi showed up behind me.

I almost jumped a few feet. I definitely sweat dropped. He stood behind me in full Hokage gear. However, I noticed he was bleeding a bit on his hand. When he saw me staring and tearing up, he walked up and caressed my cheek.

"Don't worry. I do missions still, my dear."

"Sensei, you need to be careful!"

"I am fine. Though, if you are worried, you could lessen my worry and jobs by taking on Naruto."

I nodded slowly. He was the one man I would never argue with. He walked over to his seat and sat down. I watched him and when he nodded to Nara, I smiled. Nara walked out and I sat down. I giggled as he wordlessly pulled out ramen. We would eat in a silence that spoke volumes.

***Meanwhile***

The boy from earlier looked at a random boy in front of him. The boy asked him what he was doing there. Only students that passed were supposed to be there. He was dead last right? Well, Naruto pointed to his armband and grinned. Then a commotion signaled the two beauty queens of the generation. They tried fitting through the door at the same time and one finally pushed through.

"I won!" The blonde shouted.

"No, I won Ino-Pig!"

"Only cuz your gigantic forehead was ahead!"

Naruto turned towards her with hearts in his eyes. It was his Sakura-chan. He was sure as a kunai is sharp that he was in love. He looked at her and saw her slightly messy long hair that was naturally pink. She had a blue forehead protector on top of her head, tied like a headband. Her dress went down a little past her waist and was red, with white edging and a white circle on the front. She wore green capris with bandages on the thighs. He was practically drooling.

Ino watched from afar. She only spoke out aloud about liking the same person as Sakura just for the fact of competition. However, she did have her eyes on a certain blonde man. He was charismatic and loud, but so was she. In her own defense, she wouldn't admit that she liked the dead last. Her father would kill her. She walked by him same as she always did, swaying in front of him, flipping her blonde ponytail. Her aroma much like that of the bush clover, the flower of her clan. Ino wore a violet hooded sleeveless shirt and skirt that split at her waist, to show her legs. Both her legs were wrapped up past the knees and up to her waist. They also covered her entire bottom separately so she could use the bathroom. Her clan believed in being as free as a flower so she never wore anything under the bandages. Last but not least she wore puffy arm warmers.

Sakura turned to Naruto and shouted at him to move. She wanted to sit on the other side. Naruto was excited until he realized who she wanted to sit next to. The same boy that Sakura and Ino always claimed to like. That very boy, the last Uchiha. Sasuke Uchiha sat there quietly. He wouldn't respond to Sakura. He didn't need to. He was the most popular guy in class and he knew it. He wasn't worried about anyone. He had one true mission. To kill the man that killed his clan.

The best in class looked over at Naruto and Sakura then sighed. He wore a blue jacket and had the same arm warmers that Ino had. He wore shorts and had bandages at the bottom of his legs. He was one of the few that actually wore proper shoes. Except Naruto did too, didn't he? Sakura was looking at him weird. She was so annoying. Just then Naruto jumped in front of him and looked at him. No glared.

"Kick his ass Sasuke!"

Someone else yelled and turned, accidentally pushing Naruto into Sasuke, connecting their lips. The room was very silent for a minute, all eyes on them, before both boys reared back and gagged. They glared at each other and threatened one another before Sakura stepped in. Naruto could sense the killing intent and turned around to face Sakura. She was cracking her knuckles and he did not get much out before she had hit him hard. Iruka came in looking at the students and shaking his head. He pulled out a paper and smiled as he read the list. He then turned to the children and spoke up.

***back at the Mansion, at the top***

"Breathe Samri, you are stronger than this. Hit me!" Hiruzen shouted.

We were sparing and he kept saying I could do it, but this old man was wearing me out.

"Rōmaji Doton: Doryū Taiga."(Earth release: Earth Flow River) He shouted out.

A wave of mud came towards me so I did the hand seals for my next move.

"Fuuton: Tei Hakusha!"(Air riding) I shouted before hovering.

My sensei grinned before speaking. "Good work, you are catching on. A jonin level move. Let's try this!"

"Romaji doton: Doryudan!" (Earth Release: Earth Dragon bullet) He shouted before a dragon came up out of the mud shooting its own mud at me.

I swiftly did the hand signs for my own move, Jinton: Kousokudo Kawarimi, (swift release, high speed replacement) moving myself out of there and replacing it with a wind clone. The Earth dragon attacked my clone dispelling it before I swiftly did another hand sign for the move Junsei Raikou Kunai no Jutsu (Pure lightning kunai technique) and threw four electric kunai at his dragon, cutting it down before pulling out a fan to use the first fan-based move in the fight.

"Fuuton: Furyuu no Jutsu!"(Wind release: Wind dragon.)

He laughed and shouted his own as the wind dragon came out and chased after him. He did the hand signs; snake-dragon-rabbit- and tiger. I knew what that was. The fire dragon. He then did another hand sign as the fire dragon released and took over my own wind dragon. He shouted this new technique, which I had only seen once before, used on the ninetails.

Ram-horse-snake-dragon-rat-ox- and tiger. "Romaji Katon: Karyu Endan!" (Fire release: Fire dragon flame bullet!)

This dragon shot flames out and split into three beings, each with flames pouring off of their bodies... I would be turned to ash in a real fight and for this spar I had to act fast. I focused and remembered one of the secret techniques I had learned from my first sensei.

"Kumo no fukushuu!" (Arachnid's revenge.)

From my fans spewed black clouds, dark tendrils of thunder, and shock. They spread forth covering the area. When they covered the dragon, you could hear an intense battle as from within the cloud itself. Spiders like lightning and rain covered them and squeezed the life out of them. Then when it quieted down, I got in a wind stance, ready for him. He was about to use a fire move again when he realized the move I just used was greatly affected by the wind and that it was to the left of him. All I had to do was push a little.

"Well, well. Congrats Samri-kun. You finally beat me. I always knew you had it in you. You didn't even have to use your Kekkei Genkai, nor those eyes." He grinned and stood up, coughing a little bit.

I had obviously worn him out but I didn't care as I ran up and hugged him tightly. I was proud I had won and I jumped for glee, even though I was pretty sure he went slightly easy on me. He even knew about my bloodline abilities. I was happy either way though, and that day he bought me all I could eat steak.

"So, little one, when will you start his training?" He asked softly.

I knew he meant Naruto and I blushed heavily. So, he had challenged me this one last time to make sure I could handle the ninetails. I wondered about one of his moves. I sat and looked at my plate for a while. I had not really thought about, nor did I feel I was the right person to train him.

"Well Sensei, he has Kakashi Hatake, the White fang's son. I think he is sufficient enough. Don't you? I mean he is one of the best jonins this village has. Also, the kid needs someone who was taught by or taught his father. Maybe someone to teach him the Rasengan." I looked up at him as he just stared at me. I groaned and smirked. "Fine, tou-san." I giggled using words I had never used before.

He turned beat red when I called him father. Normally I am quiet, observant, and an all-around closed off person. But, around the Hokage, I was just me. I continued. "I will train him if he can become a proper genin. I am sure that Kakashi will fail them like he did last year's students. If he doesn't though, yes if he doesn't... I will train the Uzumaki child." I looked down at my plate and smiled.

I felt his hand on my head and then it ruffled my hair. "Hey don't do that!" I said before he shishuned out. I growled and look at the table to find the payment for the meal. I giggled and finished before leaving.

I noticed the time so I ran to watch the new genin's trail by Kakashi.

***With Naruto***

"Ugh, where is he?! We have been here for hours!" Naruto groaned. He was told not to eat beforehand and he was getting mad.

"Naruto, calm down. You are so annoying." Sakura threw a pebble at him.

Then Kakashi walked up and they all shouted "You're late!"

He paid them no mind, pressing a timer and holding up two bells. "Here are two bells, obviously. The task is to take these from me before the time is up. Those that do not have a bell by noon will not eat lunch. I'll not only tie you to a stump, but I will eat lunch in front of you too. You only have to get one bell. There are only two bells, again obvious. The person who doesn't take the bell fails, meaning at least one of you will be going back to the academy."

I had joined and was hiding in a tree. I watched as Naruto shot forward with a kunai like a lunatic. The other two shot forward and tried to attack but he used my own aforementioned swift technique to show up behind Naruto with the kunai against his throat. I didn't even see him. I smirked at this. He wasn't called a prodigy for no reason. I watched as they all flew away from each other. All but the jonin, slow to my eyes.

"The most important thing for a shinobi is to be able to hide yourself." He stated. I swear he was looking right at me but I wasn't even trying that hard to hide.

Naruto yelled at him to come fight him. I looked to my left and saw Sasuke and to my right was Sakura. Why wasn't the Uzumaki child hidden? Off to a horrible start. I have watched Kakashi for a few years and one thing I knew was to not hit him head on. Naruto then insulted his hair. Kakashi put his hand in his pouch, making Naruto stop for a second.

"Shinobi fighting lesson #1: Taijutsu. I'll teach you about it." He said slowly.

Naruto was stopped, thinking probably the same thing I was. Why was he grabbing for a weapon if he was going to use hand to hand? Then he pulled out a book and I almost laughed. I looked back down and snickered even more at the Uzumaki kid's face. It was priceless. His shock was plastered all over his face.

"Well, hurry up and attack me." Kakashi said calmly.

"But...Hey. What's up with the book?" A shaky Naruto demanded.

"I want to see what happens next. Don't give me that look. I can handle you guys easily. Keep doing what you were doing."

Naruto's anger grew as he ran at him. A punch; blocked. A kick; ducked. A stab; dodged. Then Kakashi was behind him on the balls of his feet. He had the tiger seal, ready and waiting. I gasped. He wouldn't use that on a student, would he? Sakura yelled for Naruto to run before he got killed. I grabbed my fans ready to hit Kakashi.

"Too late. HIDDEN LEAF ANCIENT JUTSU SUPREME TECHNIQUE! 10,000 years of pain!" With that, his hand shot forward and poked him in the ass, firing Naruto a couple hundred feet away.

I actually did fall out of the tree where I was from laughing so hard. I started crying, tears falling onto the sand. When I looked back up, I could see Naruto getting out of the water, drenched. His shirt was torn and the sash he had around his waist was gone. Kakashi muttered something about him not becoming Hokage if he was that weak and I winced. That was a low blow, he was only a genin.

Then a shit ton of Naruto's jumped out of the water. I smiled as I saw my future pupil using the same technique he had already used on Mizuki. I wanted to see how this paid off. Naruto had grabbed Kakashi by the body and legs and was about to punch him when all of a sudden, another Naruto was in his place. I growled at my own self for not seeing that coming. I was jonin level for kami's sake. My own eyes would have seen that had I not been lazy.

Naruto looked surprised and started to sweat. Then the idiot started to fight himself. I sweat dropped and picked up my dropped fan, placing it back on my back. I jumped back up in the tree and took out my own book. Naruto was going to lose and I was going to have to wait another year to fulfill the Hokage's stupid order. The idiot obviously did not pay attention in the academy. Substitution was simple.

I looked above Naruto and saw Kakashi reading. I glared and he looked over to me and waved while smiling. Yep it was official, he was mad in the head. I heard movement and looked to see Sasuke looking around. Bad move kid, I thought. Then Naruto made a run for something. A bell. Oh no. Naruto, please don't grab it. Idiot! He grabbed it and was pulled up into a tree, upside down by ropes. I had to train this kid?

Kakashi hopped down. "Think before using a jutsu, it could be used against you. Also, don't fall for traps idiot!"

As Naruto argued, kunais came out of the air and hit Kakashi in the face. I heard a gasp from Sakura and Naruto looked, yet again, shocked. Then Kakashi poofed and in his place was a log. Another substitution jutsu. Naruto cut himself down as I saw Kakashi show up next to Sakura. Leaves began to swirl and she looked dazed. He was using a genjutsu. She started to scream and I felt he had gone too far.

"A genjutsu. She'd fall for that. But, I'm not her."

"Say that after you get a bell, Sasuke." Kakashi stated.

Sasuke ran at him yelling that he was part of the most powerful clan. The next few minutes were nothing more that weapon attacks. Kakashi kept dodging. I looked over to where Naruto was, and he was just walking up to the food. I shook my head and looked back over to see a ball of flame headed for Kakashi. I gasped. A genin shouldn't have the chakra levels for that move.

I looked around to see if Kakashi was ok before I heard an intake of breath. I looked down to see Sasuke on the ground and I knew he had lost. They all had. I looked, yet again back at Naruto, just in time to see him being caught by Kakashi, trying to eat the food. I leaned back and closed my eyes. I felt my eyes grow weary, I hadn't slept well and this entire fight had worn my brain down. It didn't take long for the landing steps to be heard and the voice taking me out of my peace.

"You watched us. Why?" Kakashi asked me.

I breathed in and let it out slow. "Not that it is any of your business, but I am supposed to train Naruto. I am regretting not fighting the Hokage harder on this decision."

He laughed and sat down. "I already told them that they failed. I told them they should quit as shinobi. The purpose of this was teamwork, Samri. You know this. You were offered the same position I am in now."

"I must've fallen asleep while you told them this. But, then why tell them?"

"They don't know teamwork. I want them to learn it. They won't of course, but I... I don't know. I felt like being nice for once. You truly must've fallen asleep. I was talking for about fifteen minutes about what's important about being a ninja. I've decided to give them one last choice, but I changed it up. Naruto cannot have lunch. They both dislike him. Let's see if they give any to him."

I smiled and pointed at them. "Looks like you made the right choice."

He looked down and to his amazement, they were sharing the food with Naruto. The same food he had told them not to. He smiled before he disappeared in a flurry of leaves. I watched as he went down and literally yelled that they passed. All of them were surprised and asked why, he explained how every other group was too obedient. He said that society viewed ninja who broke codes and rules as trash, but he believed that those who abandoned their comrades where worse than trash.

I smiled and looked down, reminded of my time at home. My sister, the poor girl, had died from the very child the Kazekage wanted dead. I knew that he would know nothing of teamwork. My beloved village was now the Leaf and I would protect it with my life. The Hokage, my tou-san, said he had seen the will of fire in me. In other words, the power to always protect those I love and those that look up to me. I looked back at Naruto screaming to be untied and I could not help but smile. He reminded me a lot of my own self, the smart ass I was, and I nodded to myself. I would train him.

When Kakashi dismissed them, he came back up to me.

"Samri-san. I need to ask you. We are the same age, you and I. Why bother coming to the leaf. Us Anbu know that you aren't truly a leaf ninja. Your headband is nothing more than decorative. So why stay?" He asked.

"That book you read? I believe in it as well. You read it and always blush, but I know why you read it. Why you truly dwell into it. The main character reminds you of your past. You were taught by Minato. Don't give me that look, I do my homework. I know what happened all that long ago. I want to say I think he would be proud of you." I smiled.

His eyes widened and then he looked down. "I wonder which he though? Obito or Minato."

"I don't know who Obito was, but I meant your father and Minato. You know he saved me once. I actually unlocked my dojutsu from him in fact. It was a stressful event toppled with his power. You see my Dojutsu is called the Unmeigan or-"

"Fate eyes. Yeah, I've heard of it. I heard Rasa married into the heir of your clan to hopefully power his own. The eyes themselves can see fate, and deduce destiny. However, that isn't all they are good for. They can be used in elemental manipulation as well. For instance, there was an old jinchuriki in Kumo that had the eyes. He never married however because people were too afraid of him Killer bee took over after he died. If I am correct then he used his eyes to manipulate lightning and could heighten his reflexes like a sharingan. He also could use his eight tails power to bring down lighting wherever he was able to concentrate his focus."

"While you interrupted me, you are right. They don't call you a prodigy for nothing, I guess. Mine is called the winds of fate. Rasa did in fact marry my sister hoping to pass it on to his children for the sands of fate. Oddly enough if Blue B had full control over his bijuu then he may have been able to utilize the second most important part of the jutsu. It is the same as a mangekyo unlock. The powerup gives us something special. Something Rasa really wanted. The ability to move through your element. Mine would be wind. Now it isn't over powered in a sense. I would only be able to do a short burst and I have to focus the chakra of wind in the location I want. It also has to be within my view and to top it off it has a cool down as it used more chakra than swift release. I also can change karma but it's more of a slight push. I'm not all powerful. However, I would not go blind from using any part of the eye as long as I did not use it to alter a death. There are other uses of course but as you can see, Rasa valued this. She however had never unlocked it." I smiled.

He nodded and looked down again. "Can you pass it on?"

I nodded. "I can pass the dojutsu on to one person. Of course, the requirements for it to work are specific. They already have to have one in their DNA, and they have to be able to splice chakra within their own body. They will not be able to use the elemental part unless they can use Nature chakra. I have as of yet only known two people that can do that. Your late sensei is one. The other is Jiraiya the Sannin."

He was quite for a bit then spoke one last time. "You said you were saved by Minato-sensei once. May I know the details? "

I nodded and began a story that dated back to when I was around thirteen

**********************Flashback***********************

"Fucking fuck fuck fuckity fuck." I swore.

My leg had been broken by a fallen tree and I could hear Iwa nins all around me. I tried focusing on my wind or lightning chakra to get me out. I should've known better than to question Rasa. That fool sent me out here on a trap. I teared up a little. My sister had died because of the power he sought out. Her new born baby squealing before I had left.

I heard them getting closer. I couldn't continue. So, this is where I would die. I looked up at the sky seeing it form other colors. Ones that weren't normal. The Iwa were near me. They could see me. They were laughing and pulling out their kunai and other weapons. One was close and grinning evilly as he raised his sword, thrusting it down.

I winced and waited for pain that never came. I was crying my eyes out when someone touched me. I looked up and saw blue eyes and a soft smile. His blonde hair waving in the wind. I looked around and didn't see anyone else. In fact, we weren't in the same forest even. Sand was everywhere.

"You are safe. I have brought you back to your land. I'm going to heal your leg now ok?"

I nodded. His voice was so sexy. His eyes were lovely. I sighed and waited. When he was done, he looked at me and grinned.

"Your eyes are swirling kinda." He stated.

He then walked with me to the edge of Suna. I found out he was the hokage, and a clone. A clone saved me.

****************Flashback end**********************

"That was right before the ninetails attack. You may have been the last foreigner to see him alive." Kakashi sighed. Now she is teaching your son, sensei. As am I. please be proud of me.

He left with that and I followed Naruto. He visited the ramen shop, then the hokage. Later on, he was walking on home. He had completed his first D ranked mission, which was to retrieve a pig that was lost. It was somehow stuck in a tree! I dropped in front of him smiling softly. He didn't notice me and walked right into my stomach.

"Hey lady watc- oh Samri-san. What are you doing here, in front of my home?"

"Kid, I am here to train you. Only a little of course. I figure it would come in handy."

His shook his head. "Kakashi-sensei is my teacher. What could you teach me?"

I smirked and walked to a tree before walking straight up it. "This and walking on water. It is simple yet important for when you finally learn to control your chakra."

His eyes widened and he looked away before turning back. "I will do it Sensei! Believe it!"

I nodded as he ran up the tree and fell. I figured he wouldn't get it right away. However, I told him we would start tomorrow and he yelled he would have it down by the morning. I sighed and turned to walk along the branch until I got into a comfortable area and I sat. I watched all night as he tried to climb, reaching higher and higher. As the sun began to rise, I narrowed my eyes and watched as he finally stayed on the top for more than an hour.

"Finally. Congrats kid." I mumbled.

Having heard me, he cheered and fell as he lost focus. I smirked and told him up next was water walking and to get sleep. He laid down at the foot of the tree and slept. I fell asleep soon after, keeping an ear out however to any noises that would approach. When I awoke, I awoke to the sounds of Naruto splashing around. I shook my head and smirked.

"Hey Kid, you are supposed to stand on the water, not fall through it." I laughed.

"Sand-Kaa this isn't funny. How do I even know you can do this?"

I shook my head and got up. I walked over to where he was, waist deep, and kept on walking on top of the water. I grinned as his eyes went wide and he grumbled to himself.

"Kid, I'll let you in on a little secret. That jutsu you do so well, us it. This will be done very quickly. Center your chakra around your feet. Shouldn't be hard as you have more than most people."

He tilted his head, then nodded. "Hai. Shadow clone Jutsu!"

With that, fifteen clones appeared and he got to work trying to walk on the water. I smiled as, just a few hours later, it appeared he had some grasp of it. I sat him down and we ate. He was all happy saying how he would be hokage.

Afterwards I told him he needed to learn one more lesson. He looked up at me with his beady eyes and I took out a scroll.

"Kid, this is a scroll, obviously. But I'm going to teach you how to put weapons inside of it. Now the jutsu itself is not that complicated. However, I'm going to put three weapon sets in here and I want you to train with them all ok?"

He nodded quickly and shouted "believe it, sensei!"

I laughed and told him to get back to the water walking. I kept noticing how his chakra was not being dispersed properly. I'm pretty sure it was the kyūbi seal, however I did not know enough about his seal to do much. Luckily, he was learning on his own, in spite of it. I got up to leave when I felt the presence of someone else. I looked up into the trees to see an Anbu pointing towards the hokage's mansion. I sighed and nodded. I told Naruto to keep up his training and I would be back.

I ran alongside the Anbu until we arrived at the mansion. The big building looming over me. For once it didn't feel welcoming. When we arrived, I let out a low growl, I felt him. The man who murdered a friend and caused another to become a traitor. Shisui was a good friend of mine and Itachi and I knew what had happened. Danzo, a man who was shrouded in mystery. The head of the root Ninja, of whom I had been asked to join, and of whom I turned down. I could feel it. The power on his bandaged arm and his eye. It was too familiar to me. I froze remembering an era of the Uchiha.

*****Flashback*****

"Dude, teach me how to get out of Genjutsu" I laughed and pushed against Shisui.

He laughed as well and leaned against me. "No one can escape my genjutsu. Maybe you can beat Itachi's?"

"Not likely." Said Uchiha spoke, coming into the room, his Anbu mask on. "We have a mission, get ready." He smiled at me.

Itachi had always been reserved and quiet. But of all the Uchiha and most of the leaf, I trusted these two the most. Shisui was always happy and go lucky. Itachi did smile once in a while, but overall, he treated me like a sister.

"Hey Shi, you think you are faster than Minato?" I asked, watching him get ready.

"Ha, no. Not even close. I will concede that even without his flying thunder god technique he was fast. Faster even. During his battles with the Raikage he didn't even use it. Hell, during the war he barely used it. You know the battle of 1000 ninja? They thought he used the technique, however he didn't. He used only five kunai that day. So, he defeated 1000 ninja, in seconds just by his normal speed." Shisui said, blushing from embarrassment. He didn't like to admit anyone was faster.

"Yeah, and again this was without body flicker. Though we have a theory he also had swift release."Itachi said, before taking a bite of some meat I had cooked for them.

"Yep, an S class secret for those who saw, a secret he wanted kept we think. When he showed up for the Kyuubi attack we all saw him on the hokage monument. He was about to attack and we saw the rise of chakra, a mixture of wind and lightning. Like yours. But he never used it. It was then he had to teleport the tailed beast bomb away. It scared even Lord third. I mean how fast was this man? Lord Third said we never even saw his full speed on foot." Shisui shuddered before continuing, "and finally, the man out ran my genjutsu. The only person known to have done so."

"You still need to teach me how to get out of any Genjutsu." I said poking him.

He winked at me and nodded, before saying he would, only if I let him take me on a date. I sighed and agreed. As long as he didn't mind dating a spy. We all laughed at this.

"You think my swift release is faster than you?" He froze and shrugged and we laughed again.

We had laughed back then. I heard them speaking about Naruto.

"We need to control him, Hiruzen." Danzo stated.

I blanked out hearing this. I kept listening as the Third Hokage disputed this and the council argued. I could feel the eye on me, trying to trap us in a genjutsu. I had luckily already been taught how to escape this. But he didn't know this. He continued on saying the child was a danger to the leaf. I was fuming. I had taken enough shit from this man. I turned towards him with a snarl, but the voice of Hiruzen stopped me.

"My dear, calm down. We have important matters to discuss."

"Sensei, how about we discuss how Danzo-san has a sharingan on his arm." I spoke with malice.

I heard a gasp and only then realized the shinobi council was there with us. I saw Danzo tense up, something in my mind told me this was not supposed to happen. That down the line he was supposed to die another way, I heard the voice of fate tell me this and I started to calm down. I was about to lie and say I was overreacting but then I saw under his eye bandage. I felt it. Shisui.

"Unmei no Kokei!" (fate sight) I shouted before dodging an attack by him. Everyone else had backed up and the Hokage was shouting for us to stop.

Both Root Anbu and Anbu were there in seconds. The whole room was quite as me and Danzo stared each other down. I spit to the side and narrowed my eyes; my irises turning from blue to purple, as they swirled, forming my dojutsu of fate. His own eyes were trying but somewhere in the room Hiashi, the Hyuuga clan leader, spoke.

"Lord Third, he has sharingan all over his arm and on the left side of his face."

"Danzo-san where did you get those?" Hiruzen asked, practically heart broken.

He had, yet again, put his trust into this man and was betrayed.

"Hiruzen, my friend, you are too soft. I took these from the traitors to protect the leaf. Meanwhile you allow ninja from other villages into our midst. Samri you are not welcome here. You never will be. Let's say me and you have a duel. If you win, I will leave. If I win, then you leave." He spoke.

Hiruzen was about to interject but I raised my hand. "Deal. Outside now. Training field seven."

With that I shunshined out and a few minutes later I was at the field. Standing in front of me was Danzo, his short sword at the ready. I pulled out my own two sword looking weapons. I knew I would have to show my hand soon but he did not know what these were.

"Fuuton: Shinkujin."(WInd release: Vacuum Blade) He spoke calmly.

I laughed and kept my dojutsu up. I knew he was also trying to pull off a genjutsu but I wouldn't allow that.

"You're an old fool, you do not know the power that I wield. You say I will never belong but I have the will of fire in me. "Hyoken no jutsu." (Ice sword technique) I yelled as both of my hands, now dual wielded a sword. I swung them back and forth getting closer to him. Everyone was whispering about my Kekkei Genkai, except Hiruzen who knew about my three Kekkei Genkai.

I ran at Danzo and he, at me. We clashed our swords before jumping back and doing it again and again. Finally, he started slowing down and I gained the upper hand, knocking his sword out of his hand. I was about to go for his arm but something happened. He disappeared and along the winds of fate I heard the words "Izanagi". He couldn't have just done that. The Izanagi was a sharingan jutsu that changed fate. He must've used what was in his arm.

"Earth Bullet!" Danzo yelled firing earth like projectiles at me.

Where did he get Earth release?! I dodged using swift release and tried to block the rest, failing to however due to my ice sword's weakness to earth. Everyone else was surprised. I shot a wind blast at him, dodging another bullet attack.

I was stunned for a second. He just used wood style. I would have to get serious and soon. I was knocked out of my stunned stance when I was slammed into a tree, by another tree. It was his arm. I narrowed my eyes and whispered "Sutomuburedo." (storm blade) as my hands lit up with lightning chakra, I pulled my two small blades from my side and mixed in my wind chakra.

He smirked and then his eyes widened as the blades opened into two purple fans, both with the kanji for fate on them. They were crackling with storm chakra and I was mad. I was not going to take a chance and I would show why even the Kazekage feared my wrath. He pulled back his tree arm and was about to use another jutsu when I used Jinton: Mei no Kaze (Swift release: Triple wind) which separated myself into three different illusions, all three were truly me, but I was moving so fast he could not focus on them. Even with Sharingans, he could not see me as I sped towards him.

Finally, I shouted "Ranton: Sen Buredo Shi!" (Storm release, thousand blades death). At which point I showed up about ten feet in front of him and swung both my fans, firing off a gust of wind before lightning flowed from them. The lightning spread like waves and arched becoming a thousand different blades and converging into one spot, his arm. As it cut the arm off, I saw the izanagi try to happen again and the blades kept coming, never letting up. I finally showed up in front of him, the last of his power going out, and his arm falling off, before shoving my hand against his face.

"You will give me back this eye." I said before thrusting my fingers through the cloth and ripping the eye out.

Everyone stood quiet as I backed up and turned around. I then put the eye against my arm and used a summoning seal to hold it. Then before he could shout for the root to attack, I did a quick turn, and with my bladed fan, decapitated him. I heard my tou-san gasp and I looked to him, tears were falling from his eyes. I looked down and was worried I would be in trouble. It was then I was shocked to feel his arms wrap around me. I felt his warmth and nuzzled in. He knew what I did was what was needed. He knew I was in the right.

"Samri-chan, I am so very proud of you, my dear. Never feel that you are not welcome here. You are a leaf ninja and always will be." With that he started ordering the clean-up.

I had to get back to Naruto, however, I did need to see someone. Before I could ask though it seemed my Sensei knew what I was going to ask. He simply handed me a headband. It was a real headband. A leaf headband. I squealed in delight as the other one I had was a temporary one. I hugged him tightly and kissed his cheek, replacing the false one around my waist.

"I am sorry about your friend tou-san." I stated sadly.

He shook his head, telling me he knew eventually the old man would have karma come for him. We stood there for a second before he spoke.

"Enjoy your new-found citizenship. You are special to me Samri, do not forget that."

I nodded and took off to finish something that should have been done a long time ago.

I arrived just inside the border to the grass village, a meeting place for me and him. I felt his presence and saw the red clouds before I could speak. He was behind me and scanning the woods, the way I came from.

"Do you not trust me...Itachi." I spoke quietly.

"I do not trust those that do not trust you. Why are we meeting?" His red eyes centered on me.

"I have something that belongs to an Uchiha." I undid the seal in my arm, bringing the eye out, still dripping with the blood of the fallen elder.

Itachi's eyes widened and then watered. "You killed Danzo? My you have grown stronger. Shisui would be proud."

"He underestimated me. Itachi, your eyes are cloudy are you ok?" I asked worried, my hand reaching to touch his face.

He backed off and turned his face away. We didn't speak before he held out his hand. I Placed the eye into his palm and watched as he closed it. In seconds the eye was gone, to where I did not know.

"How is Sasuke?" He asked, still not looking at me.

"Hateful, arrogant. Like you seem to want. I still don't believe this is right Itachi. You are a genius; can't you see this is wrong?"

"Do as I ask. Please, for our friendship." He finally looked back at me. I nodded and sighed. With that he was gone, leaves in his place.

I headed back to the blonde ward of mine.

When I arrived back, I saw him sleeping and my forehead got a tick mark.

"Naruto! Wake the fuck up!"

He shot up and scrambled around looking for a fight. If I wasn't mad, I would have laughed. I hit him on the head with my fan.

"Baka, why are you sleeping?"

"Ow...Sensei-san I finished the water walking. I even practiced my aim with shurikens." he held his head.

I sighed and nodded before leaning against a tree. I didn't realize how much chakra I used in that last attack. With a grunt I looked to the little blonde boy and spoke.

"Do you know how to use a sealing scroll?" he shook his head, no. "Figures, the academy seems a bit out of touch. Well the art of fuinjutsu is quite a challenging one, however sealing scrolls are pretty basic, plus you are an Uzumaki so you should be able to pull it off with ease." I froze when I realized what I had done.

"What does me being an Uzumaki have to do with it?"

"I'll explain later. For now, we need to get you to make a sealing scroll and train with one weapon. One other than the normal kunai and shuriken." I said smirking.

He tilted his head and nodded before making five shadow clones. I grinned, happy that he was learning. He was a smart kid, he just didn't have good teachers until recently.

"Now Naruto, which third weapon do you want to specialize in? I use fans, some use swords, others even use blunt objects and staffs." I said as he practiced.

"What about a bow?"

"Bows? You want to use a bow? I mean, I guess that would work, but it doesn't really seem practical."

"No sensei, I was just asking. I will use a sword if that is ok." he said scrunching his face up at the scrolls.

He then decided to make ten more clones and get to work on the seals again. I shook my head and got up. I told him I would be back as I walked away. I needed to find someone who could make a specific weapon. I knew just where to go.

Toshu Mi, the father of Tenten ran a smithy and the whole city pretty much went into their store, however, the word around Konoha was that he also knew how to mold elemental ore. When I arrived, there was a young girl, maybe of thirteen or fourteen walking around as she cleaned the merchandise. I nodded and she looked at me with wide eyes. The young girl had tiny buns on either side of her head and I instantly knew who she was. Tenten smiled and stared at my fans hanging from my belt.

"Miss, could I see one of those?" she asked in a small voice.

"Tenten, leave the young lady alone. How may I help you?" a huge bulk of a man came from the back room.

I laughed and took a fan off my belt then threw it to her. She giggled in glee and ran off with it.

"You shouldn't have done that. She'll be begging me to make her something like it." he gruffed but smiled.

I looked around at the weapons shop and smirked. It was clean, but smelled like steel. Weapons hung from the ceiling and from the walls. If I didn't know better, I'd say there were even some under the floor.

"I-uh. I need some elemental ore crafted into a chakra weapon. A sword to be precise." I said while shifting my weight and feeling strange without my fan.

His eyes grew big and he ran to close and lock the door. He grinned and motioned for me to come to the back room. In the back there were stairs that lead beneath the store so I followed him to the back until we showed up at a smelter. It was hot in the room. I started to sweat as he spoke.

"I'm assuming you are Samri. I can do this for you but don't speak of it to anyone. I can't afford any rogue ninja to know I can do this. I bet it was Lord Third that told you?" I nodded, a while back Hiruzen had told me about the man in case my fans broke. "Ok well, I ain't cheap lemme tell ya. For a sword it will cost 5 million ryo." He said.

I whistled and nodded. My fans were gifts. Luckily, I had other money in the form of royalties from my technique scrolls, something I had copy written and wrote on. Basically, techniques on using justus to do the average work and help out your village. I paid the man for two short swords and left shortly after. When I reached the outside, Tenten was talking to Naruto about my fan. He had come looking for me and saw her with my fan. Thinking she took it, he confronted her and found out I was inside the shop.

"Sensei! I finished! Look." He pulled out a scroll and put his hand to it, pulling out instant ramen.

Me and Tenten sweat dropped and I shook my head laughing. "Very good Naruto. Your weapon will be done by next week. Rest and finish the jobs that Kakashi sends you on. At the end of the week, I will have prepared one last lesson for you for a while. I have a mission that I, myself need to go on." I said patting his head.

The next week rolled by slowly. I watched Naruto catch cats, paint houses, catch a cat again, shop, catch another cat, and still catch the cat named Toro. The cat just needed to be killed. I was standing on top of the building across from his flat the day I would train him when I felt a presence behind me.

"Anko, you have got to stop sneaking up on me. One of these days, I may kill you." I smirked.

She walked up behind me and slithered her tongue out along my ear before backing up. We stood there in silence as the sun rose; each of us quietly breathing in the morning air. The birds chirped and the roosters finally crowed.

"Samri-san, why train him? You stated you didn't like children and now you are training the demon?" I flinched when she said that word.

"Anko, you know how he feels. Well so do I in a way. I guess we all have to start somewhere. The kid may be a handful but he is no demon. He is simply the vessel, the host, I guess. He is kind hearted beyond anyone I have seen, even with what he has been through." I stated simply.

I gasped as arms wrapped around me, pulling me into a hug. I could feel her breath catch and knew what I said had meant a lot to her. I turned and patted her head before I heard the normal yelling of Naruto when he woke up from an alarm. I laughed and she stepped away and went into hiding. I took a deep breath and prepared myself. Today would be the day I taught Naruto to dual wield swords.

I jumped down to his front door and waited, hearing him complain about the time. A moment later he came out wearing his new outfit. He had a grin on his face and his hands behind his back. I tilted my head and stared at him. After a moment I told him to show me what he had. Bashfully he pulled out a box with a ribbon on it. I took it and read the small card on it.

Dear Sensei,

I wrote this practicing the calligraphy for the scroll arts thingy. Sorry I forgot what it was called. (I sweat dropped) I had to have help spelling calligraphy. I hope it's correct. I want to make you proud and one day be as strong as Jiji. I am going to talk to Jiji about a rank C mission. I am tired of all these D ranked ones. Hopefully the skills you have taught me will help. I hope you like this present. -Naruto

I looked at him and proceeded to open the box as he shook with excitement. When I opened the box, I saw a picture of us that I didn't realize had been taken. It was when he had ambushed me and I was surprised. I laughed at the look on my face.

"Naruto, this is amazing. Look kid. Normally I don't like people, but you have heart. Never take to heart what the villagers say about you. You are alright in my book." I said smiling.

I looked up to see him grinning and ruffled his hair.

"One day they'll see me for who I am. I will be Hokage. Believe it! Now what am I learning today, Sensei?"

"You are learning how to dual wield swords. I may not be the best at kenjutsu but I have fought my fair share. I fought Raiga Kurosuki, one of the seven swordsmen of the mist, and lived to tell about it. So, I am going to teach you a bit. Now you already know how to make shadow clones to learn. I have to ask until further notice you keep this training a secret. Most Jonin or higher know you can do this, however, what they don't know is that the Uzumaki bloodline retain knowledge easier than most people. Now for this, I am going to give you the swords, they will be cloned with your others. First however I need you to put on this seal. It is a gravity seal and it will help you. I have set it to double your current weight. You will be faster after a while. When you feel like you are walking normally you may pour some chakra into it. It will not do more than four times what it is currently set to at that time." I said pulling out a seal and having him lift his shirt.

When i attached the seal and set it he groaned, feeling the weight. I then pulled out the two swords I obtained for him. The two swords looked identical; each with a twenty-seven-inch blade. Both blades are razor sharp full tang elemental ore. The handles are blue platinum cord wrapped for grip and comfort. Black heat-treated finish. They came with over the shoulder scabbards.

I handed them to Naruto and he held them in his hands. He looked down at them and blinked a few times as he took in the design. I took out my own fans but kept them closed for sword use. With that I asked him to try for 200 clones. We would need them to learn at least basics within a day. He nodded and did the kage bunshin and with that, two hundred other Naruto's with swords popped up. I backed up and showed him a few motions. I took a clone and told him for the first round I needed him to spar me. When I was done with all two hundred clones, we would do it again. The third round would be him sparring against himself.

Finally, after those three waves of clones, and a rest, a newly refreshed Naruto stood in front of me. He held the twin blades in each hand and was sweating quite a bit. I, on the other hand, was leaning against a tree smirking at him. He twirled one of the blades and came at me. I twisted to dodge and came back up with my own blades to clash with his. He jumped back and threw one. I dodged it before sending him appear. I turned quickly and caught his swords before they could hit me.

"Very nice. Someone has been studying techniques. We will finish here. I am having to go too easy on you. Also, you look painfully tired." I said.

He was fuming and started going off about how if he didn't have the seal on it wouldn't be an issue. "Naruto, shut up. Your body heals quicker than most, so the weight won't hurt you for too have other things to do and the sun is setting. I need to know your chakra nature." I handed some chakra paper to him and he looked at me and then the paper. "Naruto, pour chakra into it dummy."

He did so, scrunching his face up. The paper split in two and he gasped. I was about to grab it when one side wrinkled. I smiled softly. Like father like son. Now if only the other side had caught fire. I assumed that was because his mother and most Uzumaki had an affinity for water.

"Well you are fuuuun. Wind and lightning secondary. If you are anything like me, you should have swift release. We could test that out some other time. However, at this time you need to rest and get ready for your first C ranked mission. I've talked to Hiruzen recently and I am sure, when you talk to him, he will be fine with it.

"Yea! Dattebayo!" He shouted cheering and putting away his swords then punching the air with a grin on his face.

Later that night, after taking him out for ramen, we were walking and he spoke up.

"Sensei, could you tell me a bit about you?" He asked looking up at me with a sheepish look on his face.

I thought for a bit as I looked up at the moon. It was bright and huge in the sky, a beacon in the vast starry backdrop of the night. I sighed and decided to start from the beginning with a small story. He nodded and ate a dango I had bought for him.

"I was a kid, brought up in the sand village. My older sister was dating the Kazekage to be. My sensei was Pakura and my teammates were named Maki and Goremu. Growing up, Pakura was silent and do not like fighting but she was a hero in our village's eyes. Goremu was roguish and quiet. Maki was always happy and wanting to learn. The sand village was at war with the village hidden in the mist at the time and we were sent on a mission to take down one of the Swordsman. This was a few weeks after Pakura sensei was killed and we were out for blood."

Hearing Naruto gulp, I looked down at him then back at the moon, a smirk crossing my face for a brief moment. "The one I told you I beat? He had a partner we killed."

*****flashback*****

"Maki, slow down. We need to think this through." I snapped as we were running through the forest towards Kiri.

Maki looked back at me and Goremu and shook her head. She had been affected the most by Pakura sensei's death. A few seconds later in a clearing, explosions started and then two Ninja landed in front of us. Raiga and Kushimaru of Seven Swordsmen landed with smirks on their faces.

"You two...I thought you died in Konoha Kushimaru." Goremu spoke.

We stared at each other; no one saying anything. I finally responded. "Then you shall die today, by the hands of Team Danmaku(Barrage)."

Kushimaru smirked and pulled out one of his swords or at least that's what it looked like to me. He started to laugh maniacally as he thrust the long sword towards my chest. I dodged his sword by going behind a tree. I gasped as he came around the other side chasing me. He threw the sword towards my stomach and barely missed as I dodged his blade once again; this time I pulled out my fans before shouting my normal wind attack, Gale Winds. It blew the sword to the side enough to imbed it in a boulder.

Maki was already on her knees, focusing on her attacks using her cloth techniques. She used one filled with seals to wrap around her arms, making her faster. Goremu was already drawing on his scroll, and I watched as a Dragon shadow came out and into the ground, before making itself into an Earth golem. Those two were busy with Raiga as I turned my attention back to Kushimaru.

I activated my swift release and shouted a move I had just learned. "Wind Release: Wind Dragon!"

The swordsmen flew through his own signs before making a water shield that my dragon crashed into. I repeated my attack and he threw his sword straight through it. I was almost pierced until a golem, sent from Goremu, blocked the blade causing it to slam into the ground. Kushimaru cursed and went about other Jutsu's but I had other plans. I appeared next to Maki, kneeling, I whispered in her ear.

"Can you make a cloth bandage that can seal a weapon, and make it reappear when I release it?"

She nodded and got to work. I stood up then took off back towards the long sword user. Plowing my fist into his gut, he choked up for a second then laughed again before dropping to the ground as a puddle. It was a water clone and I fell for it. I felt the sword stab through my chest, but I only smirked.

"Two can play the clone game Kushi." I laughed as my own clone turned into a golem. I'd have to thank Goremu later for wasting one of his three.

Kushimaru's eyes widened as I appeared in front of him, gripping his own sword. As he tried to pull away, I lifted a hand and grabbed a towel looking object, thrown to me by Maki. I slammed it onto the sword and grinned as it disappeared into the fabric. I heard Goremu curse as the last one of his golems was defeated as his chakra was running low. He was now having to resort to his other jutsus.

Goremu was very strong, unless he was up against lightning jutsu or kenjutsu. Unfortunately, he was not prepared for this. We knew this was a possibility, however, he wanted to join us in our assassination mission. Maki had run back over towards Goremu and was giving him a scroll with stored chakra and a minute later his own scroll produced two more golems.

It was at this time that another Kiri team showed up, oddly enough with the jonin we had to assassinate. Maki called for a retreat, but I shouted 'No!'. I used swift release again to up my speed and appeared right behind Kushimaru, a smirk dancing across my face.

"Now you die for real." I whispered, releasing his own weapon into his back, stabbing him straight through.

I then ran around him with the other end of his sword in my hand and pulling tight, effectively cutting him in two. After making sure this wasn't just another clone and being satisfied with my results, I ran to back up the other two. They were winning when I arrived, Maki having taken out all but the jonin that was our intended target.

"Goremu go help her. Let me deal with Raiga." I shouted.

He nodded and jumped away, leaving me along with the swordsmen.

"You know, you are quite beautiful." He stated, grinning.

"You ain't so bad yourself. It sucks that I have to kill you. Maybe in the next life we can get drinks?"

"You aren't old enough to drink." He laughed.

"Eh. 'If you're old enough to kill then you're old enough to drink.' That's what my sensei always said." I smirked and raised my fans.

We circled each other for a bit. He knew my wind would outdo his lightning. He knew this was a battle he would still have to fight. I decided to throw the first punch, so to speak. I had recently picked up a storm release jutsu, the only one I could do at the time. It took a lot out of me but I wanted to show off a bit. Not for the sake of showing off but because he didn't know I could only do one storm release.

"Storm blade: Hurricane Fans of the storm!" I added a personal touch to name my own weapons, a sign of respect to his own blades.

My fans were immersed in a blinding light before they started to spark. Static shot off them and blue light dripped every now and then. His eyes widened and he changed his stance to a more defensive position.

"I'm guessing that making mist won't work on you. I get the sense you can see things ahead of time." He spoke slowly, judging my reaction.

"How wise." I spoke quietly before launching myself at him.

As expected, when he launched a lightning bolt at me, my fans were able to take it. He kept attacking and throwing more lighting at me until he could get in close. We clashed and held our stance. I giggled and kissed him before jumping back and calling out "Fuuton: Daitoppa (Wind Release: Great Breakthrough)."

The wind pushed him back so I yelled "Fuuton: Niju Tatsumaki!" (Wind Release: Double Tornado) sending two tornadoes at him. He jumped onto a tree branch and did a spiraling water attack to send him through the tornados.

"Fuuton: Senpu Kyohek." (Wind release: Whirlwind Punching Wall) The first tornados I made came back around and slammed into him again. He went to do the water drill but now my tornados were forming one. The trees around us were splitting as I used the last of my safe chakra to ensnare him. I could see his clothes tearing as he screamed with lightning striking everything around us.

When the wind died down, we were both panting. He stood up and smirked while pointing his swords at me.

"You are most definitely worthy. And while I am not beat, I do think that we will have to take each other down. I am not as strong as my predecessor nor do I think I am stronger than you are. What is your name, young one and your age?" He asked between heavy breathing.

"Samri of the Sand. I am a chunin, age 12." I said taking precautions and swallowing a food pill.

As my chakra surged for a bit longer, I heard a cry and gasp from behind me. I wanted to turn but I couldn't. Raiga looked around me and then back at me. He nodded and shishuned out of the clearing. I waited for a few seconds and turned around to see my other two teammates coming with the jonin's head in a bag. I rolled my eyes and said we needed to head back before more showed up.

"That was the last mission we completed as a team. After that, Maki got serious with her training, I was promoted to special jounin, and Goremu became a guard for my sister." I told Naruto as we neared his home.

"Wow! I don't know what The Swordsmen are but that sounds awesome, Sensei!" He exclaimed, his face lit with excitement.

I sweat dropped and smacked him on the back of his head. "Baka! I just told you about them and you learned how to fight like one today, as I told you before I trained you..."

He rubbed the back of his head. "Yeah. I'm sorry Sensei. I was paying attention to the cool swords you gave me while you were talking earlier."

I sighed and rubbed my temples. "Naruto, go to sleep. Don't break those swords by the way or I'll break you." He nodded quickly and ran inside.

I turned to leave but stopped just as Naruto's door opened and the kid hugged me from behind. "Thanks again, Sensei for, you know, believing me and all, you know." I paused then patted his hand, a soft smile on my face. "It really means a lot..." He said softly then let go.

I turned to look at him. He laughed and smiled while rubbing the back of his head. "I guess I'd better get to sleep. Night Sensei!" He said then ran back into his home and closed the door.

I shook my head and walked towards my home, hearing and feeling another jonin following me.

"Kakashi, please don't hide from me." I spoke aloud as I stopped walking and turned my head in his direction.

The white haired jonin walked out from the shadows. He was quiet at first while we walked a bit until were a few houses away from my home.

"You truly beat two Swordsmen?" He asked with a mixture of awe and wistfulness in his voice.

"Lucked out on one, I think he was weakened. The other Swordsmen let me win. He didn't truly attack and he honestly seemed to just be playing games. I think he saw me beat the first and was testing me. I would have died if I had pushed him any further though. I am sure that you wish you could have been there." I smiled at him, knowing the answer.

"I do. At the time, however, I was embroiled in my own strife." He spoke quietly as he closed his eyes for a moment then looked away. His brows furrowed then he shook his head as he looked into the tree line.

"You are his sensei. I am his sensei. We need to keep a close eye on this boy. He is stronger than you guys realize." I smiled at him and placed my hand on his shoulder as we reached my doorstep.

"I should surmise as much. Minato-sensei, I wish you were still here." He sighed and looked up at the moon then looked back down with his eye watering but not forming a full tear.

"He looks so much like him. Sometimes I see Minato in him. Not just in his appearance but some times in his actions and words. His determination, strength and compassion. He would do his parents proud." Kakashi said acting like he was rubbing the side of his nose while actually clearing the tear out of his eye as he let out a short laugh and smiled.

"Then help that spark grow. Believe in Naruto and what he's capable of. See past what he is and see WHO he is." I said looking him in the eye with a smile.

Kakashi nodded. "Yeah."

"Goodnight Kakashi. Oh, and tell Anko to stop spying on me, please." I laughed, patted his shoulder then removed my hand and went inside. I closed the door just as someone fell out of a tree.

"How does she always know?" Anko asked then sighed as she stood up, dusting her clothes off.

Kakashi shook his head and chuckled to himself as he turned and walked off, leaving her question unanswered.

Naruto your story starts tomorrow. I hope you are ready for this. I sighed and faceplanted into my pillow, not even bothering to get undressed. I heard laughing next to me and turned. Anko was there eating my dango.

"Anko-chan, what are you doing here? In my house, no less."

She grew quiet and looked away. "I just...I needed a friend ok? Kurenai and Asuma are rooming together and you are a friend. I think? If I need to go-" I interrupted her by pulling her on the bed.

She sighed and we cuddled for the remainder of the night. I didn't ask her why she needed it, or comment when I heard the sniffles. I was just there. I never really had friends, not since Maki. I was glad to have one here.
