Flashback

9 years ago.

I was running from something that I couldn't see. It was so fast, and so big I couldn't fight back. So I was running. I suddenly felt a pain as the thing bit me at the base of my neck from behind. I passed out, or so I thought. As I opened my eyes I found myself in a sewer like place with a cage in front of me with a seal on the door to the cage. Inside was a 20ish year old girl. 'Hello Naruto, I am the Kyuubi no Yoko,' she said.

"Ok… But where are we? And why do you know my name?" I replied asking.

She shrugged 'This is your mind, and I know your name because I've been here since the day you were born. October 10th 4 years ago,' she replied.

I raised my eyebrow. "Your dead, the Fourth Hokage killed you... How can you be here?" I asked her. (Hey I was a kid and I was too stupid to fear her and curious… what can I say?)

'That is a story for another time. For now there is something we must address inside your mind. This... beast,' she replied raising her hand to reveal a second cage with what looked like a golden wolf pacing. 'This is your werewolf side. It was created when you were bitten on the back of the neck just now. I had to imprison it as fast as I could before it could change your body. The werewolves are lesser demons and as such they grant increased strength, stamina, and speed. However, there is a major downside. You would be forced to transform under the full moon every month. As well as this, When I let it loose, because I know I cannot hold it back forever as it is an incurable thing, your body will be wracked with agony for several hours. And as such there are two ways to prevent being found, and killed, before your body can adapt.

'One is too finding a mate who will watch over you while your body adapts and fuses with the beast. The other, is to flee the village and with my aid to find a werewolf pack hiding who will watch over your transformation. I would actually recommend the first one, but that would force you to experience pain every full moon until you adapt to the beast. The pain would be enough to make even an experienced ninja wince. However I recommend," she said before taking a breath. (she somehow said it all in one) "That you wait. That would allow you to chase your foolish dream of becoming Hokage, and this would aid you in that quest. Then again… If we placed seals on it, you could gradually absorb it into your body meaning you would only experience a fraction of the amount of pain each time. That would work...,' she muttered the last part raising her hand and multiple seals appeared on the cage of the golden wolf. 'You will have to meditate in order too unlock the seals and I recommend doing so when alone or with someone you trust,' she said before I closed my eyes and one of the seals released. "This will not be easy… will I be able to control the transformations," I asked Kyuubi.

She shrugged 'I do not know about that. You might and you might not be able too but you should especially with an upper class demon already residing in your body. Now back to the world with you. Your being carried to the hospital by Anbu who found you shortly after you were bitten, and after I drew you in here,' she said. Then I found myself back in reality being carried on the back of Kakashi because of his silver hair.

End Flashback

Today was the day I entered the Academy… a little late due to my wish to train my charka control and stores as much as possible, as well as focusing on removing seals but anyway I digress. I focused chakra into my eyes and was satisfied to see the little bird that dipped into the water (you know those little plastic ones with a top hat and the little cup of water that you flick and they use gravity to keep dipping back and forth into the water) constantly suddenly have more detail then before. I winced as I felt the pain of more of the wolf being absorbed into me. After getting rid of the pain I stood and brushed myself off. Then I realized I was missing my clan clothing.

I had learned a couple years back of my heritage and that I belonged to the Namikaze clan. A now nearly extinct clan except for myself, because of this I could wear a shirt with the clan symbol (A.N his red swirl in my opinion) on the back without looking weird. I found the shirt and put it on then ran out the door heading for the Academy. Lucky for me I would be entering a class of my own age group because the Hokage was willing to bump me up a couple years, because I had in fact been training, and had mastered all of the jutsu required to pass the exams, plus a few extra. I arrived at the Academy and gathering chakra in my feet sped up and slid into the classroom just before class was starting. "Sorry I'm late sensei. I woke up late," The sensei shook his head.

"I suppose your Naruto Uzumaki," He said, and I nodded. "I am Iruka you will refer to me as Iruka-sensei now," He said then took a breath and said "Hinata Hyuuga, raise your hand." A white eyed with a purplish tinge to her eyes and dark blue hair raised her hand. "Go sit next to her," He said and I jogged up there.

As I sat next to her I thought 'Hey she's sort of cute. I hope she's nice.' Then I tried to pay attention to the lesson. I say tried, because well lets face it when you've been training and being taught privately by various jounin, an academy lesson can be more boring then well…. watching paint dry. I fell asleep soon and was hit in the head several times with chalk erasers before I woke back up. At that point I pretended to pay attention but was really sleeping with my eyes open trying to unlock more of the seals.

Inside My Mind

I unlocked one more seal, and then Kyuubi decided to talk stopping me from concentrating. 'That girl was cute,' she said smirking. 'You like her don't you,' she teased before motioning to the large wolf in the second cage that had stopped pacing to sit there looking at me. 'It'll be a while before you can begin training to harness your werewolf abilities at their fullest force,'

"I know it'll be a while," I replied. Then the wolf decided to grace us with his words for the first time since he was sealed in my body. 'Quite a while at the rate your moving pup,' He said with a sneer.

"I know that you mongrel," I said to the sneering wolf who grew indignant at the insult before turning to Kyuubi. "I'm not gonna hit on her or anything so don't try to bug me until I ask her out," I said with a glare.

'Very well, do try to find a way to get her on your team though,' She replied. I nodded, it did make sense. Then I snapped out of my trance when the bell rang and class was dismissed.

Reality

"Hinata would you mind training with me," I asked edging, trying to get to know her better through time together. She blushed but shook her head. "Ok! I'll wait for you outside class I have a special training grounds we can use, but you'll need to be with me to get there," I said before walking down the tiers of the classroom and exiting the class. Then I waited up against the wall for her to come out. She exited and I took her to my personal training grounds.

As we entered the perimeter of the training grounds, the gravity increased for both of us. It increased to 3x normal gravity for me, and 1.5 to for her. It depended on your own strength how hard it pushed down on you. I was about twice as physically strong so it pushed down on me 2 times as hard as it pushed on her. It pushed just enough that your body was forced to adjust and therefore make you stronger and faster. "This is my personal training grounds the chakra field judges how hard to push down by a persons physical strength, causing there body to adjust and increasing speed and strength. I train here a lot so I brought you here," I said.

She nodded and asked "Do you mind if I activate my Byakugan during the training to monitor yours and mine chakra pathways?" I shook my head and she did a few handsigns and veins appeared around her eyes. "That's odd… your chakra coils are much thicker then anyone I've ever seen," She said cocking her head.

I nodded "It's just the way I am they've been thickening ever since I was little," I said to her. She nodded and I took an unorthodox fighting stance that obviously had holes in it.

Then she frowned "Well I suppose I should help you correct the flaws in your stance," she said as she walked over and used her hands to guide my legs and hands into position. Then after several brushes and heavy blushes on both sides she got into position and the spar began. However, she managed to knock me back onto my ass ending the spar in her favor. She sat down next to me "Your very good despite having those holes in your stance," she said with a smile then I thought. "Did you notice any other abnormalities in my chakra as we fought?" I asked her curious if she saw Kyuubi's chakra or wolfy's mixing with my own.

She nodded "I saw this red and goldish looking chakra there too. They looked like they were grouping around the closed tenketsu to try and open them again. Then with two fingers she began lightly tapping all the spots on my body she had just blocked returning the flow to normal and then doing the same to herself. "There it is again do you have any idea what it is?" she asked.

I nodded "Let's just say I'm infected with that red chakra but I can't get rid of it… I'll explain better later but for now that's good," I replied. "So tell me more about yourself I have a feeling we're gonna be on the same team after graduation so we might as well get to know each other now," I suggested. She nodded and proceeded to tell me all about the worse of the Hyuuga traditions and that she was the heir to the clan and wanted to change it. "Then I'll help you out! I'm gonna become hokage and I'll help you change the Hyuuga clan," I promised to her. "I never back down and I never go back on my word that's my nindo, my ninja way," I told her. Then she smiled and said "That'd be nice. Why don't you tell me more about yourself Naruto?" She requested, and since she had just told me all about her dreams and such I decided to do the same. I informed her of all my hopes and dreams leaving out the part about the wolf.
