Chapter 1

"Naruto! Sasuke! Itachi! It's time to get up. Come down for breakfeast, or I'll come up with the cold water." Naruto groaned as he sat up. he looked to see Sasuke still laying in bed. Sasuke rolled and glared at him. Naruto just stared back at him. Naruto turned to look at the door and see 14 year old Itachi walk by the door still looking asleep. He drug his feet on the ground and he almost rolled down the stairs. Itachi always did that, he must have learned his lesson because neither Naruto or Sasuk seen Mikoto dump cold water on him.

"Sasuke you might want to get up so you don't get a cold shower." Naruto said trying to keep his friend out of trouble. He grunted and rolled so that he was facing away from Naruto. Shrugging Naruto got up and as he was walking out the bedroom door he see's Mikoto walk up the stairs with a bucket.

"Sasuke up yet?" She asked. Naruto shook his head. "Ok thanks. Breakfeast is on the table, so go help your self." he nodded once.

"AHHH! What the hell? Mom!"

"I told you to get up and if you didn't then I would come up with the cold water. Not my fault that you didn't listen. Now get downstairs before I fill the bucket again." Naruto was down the stairs and at the table when Mikoto came back down with a smile on her face. She looked at Itachi who was sitting at the table. He had his head on the table snoring. "Itachi! No sleeping at the table." He woke with a snort. As she began filling the bucket Itachi looked at Naruto like he was dreaming.

"Who are you?" He asked slowly and his words slured.

"Itachi, how could you forget Naruto?" Mikoto said. Naruto looked at Itachi and he just stared.

"HOW DARE YOU FORGET ME!" Naruto shouted. That usually got him to remember me.Naruto thought. He was still alittle mad that they had to go through this almost every day. Naruto saw his eyes flicker with understanding but then it disappeared. Then he's gone and Naruto feels a cold object against his neck.

"I don't know who you are but if came here to threaten my family then I'll kill you right here with no remorse." Naruto gulped and then the Kunai was gone and he hears a thump. Naruto turns to see Itachi laying on the ground cluching his head.

"Idiot older brother. Stop threatening people that have lived in the house for years. Jeez." Sasuke had punched Itachi. After about 2 minutes Itachi got up and looked around then at Naruto.

"Hey Naruto. What am I doing on the floor?" Sasuke facepalmed and Mikoto giggled. She knelt by him. "You have a habit of forgeting who Naruto is and we went through another battle with you. A little one and Sasuke won this time. At least your father didn't have to get involved. He says it ruins his entire day when he has to fight against you. Eat your meal and then get going. Your all going to be late for the entrance ceramony." Itachi looked at her then his eyes widened.

"You mean I attacked Naruto?" He turned to Naruto in shock. "I'm so sorry Naruto."

"You didn't attack, just threaten. No big deal." Itachi looked shocked even more at his attitude. "R-right. Still I'm sorry." Itachi sat down and looked at his meal. "Itadakimasu." Naruto watched him eat. Itachi was Naruto and Sasuke role model. Itachi wasn't his real brother but Mikoto said that after Naruto's father died his mom asked for Mikoto to take care of him. Mikoto said that his mom had some things she needed to do and would be gone for awhile. But its been 8 years and she still hasn't come back. Naruto really like Sasuke's family. Fugaku has a mean looking face but he's nice, Mikoto is really motherly and kind, Itachi is a big brother, and Sasuke was his best friend and rival.

"Alright. All of you are all done so it's time for you to go get dressed. Itachi don't forget that you have a mission to complete and after your done you father wants to see you at the station."

"Yeah I know mom. Where is dad? Did he already go to work?"

"No he's still sleeping, which is a surprise considering all the noise you all made this morning."

There was a gasp. "Mom that's not fair!"

"What's not fair Sasuke?"

"It's ok for dad to sleep in but when I try to you pour cold water on me."

"Well If I tried that with your father he would surely get angry and we all know what he's like when he's angry. Plus your my son and when I tell you to get up, you get up. I shouldn't have to come in and pour cold water on you. You should get up when I call your name. I shouldn't even need to threaten. Take Itachi for example. I tell him its time to get up he doesn't even lay there for on second after I tell him. You know why?"

"Because you would go and pour water on him."

"No, because he knows what I expect from him."

"But Mikoto when he gets up like that he's all out of it and not even there and then he attacks me."

"Yeah I know Naruto but I only tell you guys to get up early if you have something to do that day. And as is the case, you two boys are late getting to Acadamy while Itachi is late for his mission." They all gasp. Late? They looked at each other for a long time.

"Get your butts upstairs!" yelled Itachi. "I can't be late for this mission. Come on and get a move on. Don't make me drag you and force the cloths on you." They all went running up the stairs. When they came back down Fugaku was already up and eating.

"You guys are late. Get a move on."

"Yes sir!" they said all together and they rushed out the door.

He sat by himself like always. He was always invisible to everyone else. No matter how many times he walked by them, they looked right through him as though he didn't exist and in a way he didn't. He heard shouts and laughter from some kids his age walking by the tree that he was sitting in. His piercing blue eyes looked down at the Uchiha family plus one. Naruto Uzumaki. His blond hair and happy attitiude completely contrasted his own. With his long black hair and dark aura, the people that did see him looked at him in fear. Uzumaki was able to live with friends, while he had to live in that stinky orphange. But in a way they were similar. Naruto was looked down on, hated. So was he. It seemed that was the only similarites between the two boys. He looked down at Naruto with hate filled eyes thinking that Naruto thinking that Naruto had what he wanted. It wasn't fair. And to top it off Naruto was friends with the famous Uchiha's. What really made him mad was that Naruto wished for more. It's like Naruto wasn't content with what he had. His eyes went red as his temper flashed. He hit the tree and some leaves fell from the tree on top of the three boys. They looked up to see a young boy in the tree. How did get up there? Why was he up there?

"HEY! What you doing up there?" Naruto shouted. Can't he keep quiet? the black haired boy asked. When he didn't answer Naruto looked at Sasuke.

"Did he not hear me?"

"Oh I think he heard you, baka."

"Then why didn't he answer?"

"Maybe he doesn't want to talk to you."

"Hey Itachi, can you get up there?" Itachi looked at Naruto.

"Yeah but with some difficulty. That's high. I don't even know how he got up there."

"Will you go up and talk to him?"

"Why? I don't want to talk to him."

"I want to talk to him. Please Itachi." He gave him the puppy dog eyes. Itachi sighed and agreed. He jumped at high as he could but he couldn't even reach the first branch. Damn! This tree makes me feel like a horrible ninja. I'm a jounin and I can barely reach! I wonder how this boy got up there? Itachi thought to himself. The said boy just looked at the feeble attempts to get to him.

"You know if you want to talk to me, all you have to do is ask." Itachi looked in shock.

"What? You mean I tried and made a fool of myself when you could have come down."

"All I did was state something. How you take it is up to you." He stood up and they all realized how thin the branch was the boy was sitting on. With so much grace that it seemed impossible, he walked off the branch and landed without even a noise. Maybe that's why nobody noticed him. He barely made a noise. He looked staight at Naruto. Naruto flinched as he gazed at blood red eyes. It wasn't the color that scared him, he was used to strange colors considering he lived with people that their eyes turned red, it was the pupils and expression they held. His pupils where slited like a cat or a dragon and he looked at Naruto with anger and he saw a hint of hate. He was used to those but what got him was he saw hurt and longing and sadness in those eyes that looked at him in hate. He straighted his pose and Naruto noticed how much shorter this boy was then him.

Itachi was the first to speak. "Why were you in a tree? How did you get in there? Where are your parents?" The last question angered the boy more. He knew that this Uchiha didn't know that he was an orphan but it still made him angry.

"Why aren't you answering? Stop glaring." Itachi said glaring back.

"I was in there because I wanted to be. I jumped. And my parents are either dead or didn't want me. That answered your questions. I'm late." he turned and walked away leaving the trio standing there looking dumb.

"Well Itachi you got your answers. How do you feel?" Sasuke asked sarcasticly.

"Like an idiot that just got told off." Naruto and Sasuke looked at each other then at Itachi. Then they burst into laughter. Itachi's eyes crinkled in anger.

"Hey stop laughing. That kid is like you guys age. I hate being told of by squirts like you. Now lets go. We're late." They walked toward the Acadamy Naruto and Sasuke laughing. But deep down inside Naruto had a feeling like they knew how each other felt, him and this boy where similar. Naruto at least knew he had a mother but she was gone. This boy didn't know if his parents were dead or if they had abandoned him. Naruto felt like he had a whole new perspective of his life. He walked thinking about this boy wondering if they would meet again.
