Before you read the actual story I would like to state a few things right now. First is that if you can't stand an OC that will eventually be equal or less in power compared to Naruto then don't read this story. Second is that Naruto isn't an idiot in this fan-fic. My reason for this is that I think that Naruto isn't the idiot that he seems to be. Remember that a fox is clever and uses deception a lot so I thought that Naruto would be clever and use a fake image of himself. As for the OC don't worry because he won't be loved by everybody or get everything so the OC isn't a Mary Stu. Lastly if you don't like the pairing then don't flame me simply because I like NaruSaku. I don't flame others because they like SasuSaku so I ask that you show me that same respect.
Chapter 1: Enter the Canine Duo
A young boy only 6 was panting as he was getting tired. He and his partner had just stolen a watermelon from a local vendor and the man had started to chase them. The other boy was the former's little brother and was only a few hours younger than his older brother. Their only method of survival was to steal fruit and vegetables from the vendors that sold them out on the streets. The brothers had no home or parents to provide them with the bare necessities so stealing was necessary. The man who sold the watermelons was right on their trail and gaining. The sibling with the watermelon had a quick idea and took out a pocket knife stored in his dirty and rotten trousers that was used in emergencies. Well to him this was an emergency so he got it and looked at his little brother. The younger sibling nodded his head in understanding and they prepared to perform one of their favorite escape plans. His older brother cut the watermelon in half and gave one half to his brother. The two then took a different path leaving the vendor in grief and confusion. No matter which path he took, the street rats would end up with the stolen food so he gave up the chase and returned to his fruit cart before anyone else stole his fruit.
"Why does this happen to me?!!" The vendor cried out and he dropped to his knees. The brothers almost always managed to escape with at least one fruit. By now the two brothers had reunited near their alleyway hideout.
"You alright?" Asked the older sibling.
"Yeah we lost that sucker!" The younger sibling cried out though not loud enough for others to listen. His brother nodded and they began to munch on their stolen breakfast. "Why do we have to steal the fruit brother?" He asked.
"I told you little brother, nobody cares about us so we have to get food ourselves" The older boy responded with a tone that meant that he had explained this many times to his sibling. He grabbed a bite of his half of the fruit and chewed though not happily.
"Yeah you're right" The younger boy responded with a sad voice. He looked at his only family who gave a look that meant to cheer up. The boy nodded even though nobody had talked yet. Suddenly a fox and a wolf appeared and came into the alleyway but instead of cowering in fear the two boys smiled. "Hey Kit and Pup" The wolf said. The boy who was called Pup by the wolf instantly scowled.
"Shut up Oozaru" Pup responded. The wolf called Oozaru only smiled and sat down next to Pup. "Hey Kami join us will you?" Pup asked to the fox companion. Kami, the fox, smiled just as Oozaru had and Pup threw a piece of watermelon over to Kami. Kami jumped up and caught the piece in his mouth. Kami then dropped it but started to chew it.
"Like a common dog" Oozaru said with snickers coming out from Kit and Pup. Kami glared at the wolf but Oozaru had an innocent look on his face and acted as if he never said anything. Kit, the younger brother, threw Oozaru a piece from his watermelon and Kami stared hopeful at the piece in order to make a joke on Oozaru. Instead of what Kami did, Oozaru waited for the piece to land and then he grabbed it in his mouth and chewed it in a standing position. Kami growled with discontent while Oozaru merely smiled with triumph. Soon the group of four had finished their meal and were ready to talk.
"How long has it been since we've last seen you two?" Kami asked while looking at the two brothers.
"A week" Kit replied with no thought to Kami's question. "You two have been careful to not get caught right?" Kami added after hearing Kit's response. The boys nodded their heads.
"Well they're alright so you can shut up now Kami" Oozaru said. Kami glared at the joking wolf but Kami then had a smug look as he just remembered something.
"Ah but I taught them to sneak and steal food" Kami replied happily. Oozaru scoffed while the boys were laughing their heads off.
"I taught them to fight idiot so that if they get caught they can fight back" Oozaru said knowing that Kami had now lost the argument. Then Oozaru's ears twitched and the boys knew what that meant. Kami who was about to ask had gotten a look from the wolf which made him shut his mouth. Then a human with a mask on his face came into the alleyway.
"So you're the ones causing trouble for the fruit sellers" The masked man said. A group of other people with masks appeared around who Pup and Kit knew to be their leader. "Guess we gotta take you runts to the Hokage now" The leader added. Kami and Oozaru immediately got in front of the boys and the canines growled. "Fine we'll take their pets too" the leader said as he added to his sub-ordinates' orders. Oozaru had a angry look as he took offense to the 'pets' comment made to him. The leader turned to a man on his right and began to speak. "Go ahead and tell the Hokage that we caught the Canine brats" Leader ordered. The man nodded and disappeared. The ones that stayed behind grabbed the boys along with Kami and Oozaru. They all disappeared and reappeared in an office. The group of Kit, Pup, Oozaru and Kami looked up to see an old man seated in a big chair. He had white and red robes with a big white and red hat. He had a pipe in his mouth and was looking at a crystal ball when the leader of the masked men coughed a bit.
"Oh so I see you caught the young ones stealing the fruit?" The old man asked. The men nodded their heads and dropped off the group. "You're dismissed" The old man added. Kit and Pup glared at the elderly man while Kami and Oozaru were in a defensive stance. The old man raised an eyebrow at this sight. 'A fox and a wolf living, caring and protecting two children?' The old man thought. "Anyways I'm sure you two children know this but just to make sure, I'm the Hokage and I won't tolerated stealing in my village even if two children committed the crime" The Hokage said with authority. This didn't change Kit and Pup's opinion of him so they stuck their tongue out at him. The Hokage was in disbelief. Here were two kids who didn't even respect the Hokage much less an authority figure! He shook his head and looked at the boys. "Do you two have parents?" The Hokage asked. Kit and Pup went from mocking the Hokage to having depressed expressions on their faces. 'So then they don't have parents' The Hokage thought.
"My mate cared for them" Kami suddenly answered. There was a crash and the Hokage stood up with disbelief in his face. "YOU TALK!!" the Hokage practically screamed. Kami nodded and Oozaru nodded as well. Then a poof sound was heard and a man appeared from the smoke.
"Hokage-sama I'm back from my mission" The man said. He had a mask but it only covered his mouth and a headband that covered his left eye. "Oh hello there" he said looking at Kit and Pup.
"Ah Kakashi I wanted to talk you" the Hokage started to talk, "I need you to be these two kids' official guardian" the Hokage finished. Kakashi had shock on his face. 'ME!! Take care of two brats!!!' Kakashi thought. The Hokage didn't wait though and began to continue. "Consider it as a mission so you are ordered to take care of them from now until they graduate from the Academy" the Hokage said in a voice of authority. Kit and Pup shrugged though they didn't expect to be treated well. Kakashi sighed and signaled the boys to come close.
"Hold on brats" Kakashi ordered as he was about to poof away but Kami and Oozaru grabbed on to the brothers and the five of them left. Once they were gone the Hokage had a grin on his face. "So those two are Jinchuuriki huh?" the Hokage asked to himself. "Life in Konoha is going to be interesting from now on" he said as he looked out the window to look at Konoha.
This is my first fan-fic so please go easy on me. I accept criticism as long as it isn't harsh. I know that this chapter is rather short so forgive me for that. I'm looking for a person who can help me out with the honorifics because I do plan on using them and I could use a beta reader. Sorry if it seems like I'm asking for too much but I would like to improve my writing. I realize that the name I chose for the fox does mean God but I assure you readers that I chose the name because I liked it not because of the meaning.
