Naruto opened the bathroom door, towel around his waist and steam leaking out of the door. As he walked down the hall to his bedroom he wiped the wet hair out of his face. His hair had always been long, him and his father looked identical. Everything from their body shape to what their hair looked like. Naruto had only seen his mother in pictures, but even from them he thought that he didn't look anything like her.
He walked up to the door to his bedroom and saw his two best friends, Sasuke Uchiha and Ino Yamanaka. Sasuke smirked" Whats up man? You took a while"
Naruto shook his head laughing, knowing what Sasuke was trying to get at. " Just finished up some training. Been thinking of a earth style jutsu actualy, do you know if Itachi is coming tonight?" As he said this he went around his room collecting clothes from draws.
"Yeah he's coming, he has the next week off so he said he'll help us train. "
"Ok cool, ill talk to him about the jutsu I was thinking of at dinner. I'll meet you out there after I get dressed" The other two left to let him change. He decided to wear just jogging bottoms and a singlet.
As he walked out to the kitchen and eating area he saw Sasukes mother, Ino and her mother all at one side of the room talking about something that Naruto didn't care about. Around the kitchen he saw his father cooking whilst talking to Inoichi, Fugaku, Itachi and Sasuke. Naruto walked over to the boys who were talking about the sharingan. "Nice to see you again Naruto, how is your training going?" Fugaku asked, finishing the previous conversation
"Nice to see you too Fugaku. My trainings been going well, my flying thunder god is coming along alright and I've mastered the unfinished rasengan. Even though my dad's alright with it Kurama doesn't want me to start training with his power yet"
Fugaku nodded at this, happy the kyubi is being safe about how he trains Naruto." And what about the side effects to you from containing him?"
"Well my chakra reserves are massive, easily bigger than kage level but my control is terrible due to that. Due to having kuramas chakra seep into mine I have use over all elements and sub elements. But that isn't to say its easy. I have my wind, earth and fire alright so far, but my lightening and water isn't going well. The sub elements feel basically impossible, I will have to let my control improve and my chakra system develop fully" Naruto said as he got a beer from the fridge. His father let him drink beer from the age of ten, having the full nine tails inside of him makes the effect of alcohol nothing to his liver and prevents him from getting drunk if he wants, he can always cancel the flow of healing chakra and then he would feel the effects.
Itachi smiled hearing how well Naruto is doing, he could of gone through he ranks at the same ages as Itachi did but Narutos father wanted him training for as long as he could before graduating the appropriate age.
As the night progressed they kept talking about sasukes training and other random things. When it came time to eat everybody sat around a large dining table. Naruto sat next to Itachi and Sasuke, with Ino sitting across from him.
Somewhere through the dinner Itachi asked Naruto what jutsu that he needed help with, saying that Sasuke mentioned it.
"Well it's a earth style offensive jutsu" Naruto said, taking a drink in-between his sentence to help the remainder of his food go down. "It's the form of a wolf, and im talking like fully grown Inuzuka dog size. Its incredibly fast and has spikes of hard earth poking off him like hair." Naruto says as he grabs a napkin and starts to draw a sketch.
"What's your problem then?" Itachi asked curious like everyone else at the table, no one but Itachi and Naruto talking.
"Well it's about the control of the wolf and the chakra. For me the chakra level is nothing, but if other people wanted to learn it, it could kill some people with the amount it consumes" Naruto says in a concerned matter.
"Why don't you show us son?" Minato asked standing up and leading the way to their massive sized training area/ back garden.
"Everyone, I need to warn you. The unpredictability with this jutsu is incredibly dangerous. All of you be ready to run or defend. And uchihas I'm allowing you to copy this with your eyes but be careful." Naruto says as he walks over to the other side of the garden, facing a training dummy around twenty metres away. Everyone nodded to him in agreement.
Naruto walked through the hand signs in his head as he went through them "Snake, Dog, Monkey, Snake, Ram. He charged his chakra a shocking amount to the adult ninjas who understood the amount. Naruto planted his hands on the ground and shouted "EARTH STYLE: GROUND ALPHA RAGE JUTSU!" all of a sudden a massive rock wolf merged out of the ground, sprinting towards the dummy. When it got to the dummy it jumped in the air to its left and ripped off the head of the dummy. The viewers shocked with the power of the jutsu, they could feel the energy radiating off of the wolf. It skidded to a stop and looked over to the other and started off in a sprint. Going towards Minato and Fugaku. They tensed up and readied themselves, but were shocked when it jumped over their heads. They turned around to notice it was going towards Ino who was too far away from them, Inoichi started on handsigns but he was too far away.
Ino was looking ahead of her and was regretting not bringing any ninja gear. It was two metres away from her. It brought up his torso sized claws ready to slash at Ino. Until she saw a yellow flash in front of her just as it was swinging down. Pushing her onto the ground away from the wolf. She could see the back of Naruto standing there ready to fight it.
Naruto knew he couldn't block that slash but he had to push Ino out of the way. He turned his head to see that ino was safe and then felt an incredible pain. He screamed out in pain as the wolfs stone claws ripped down his chest, not going far but he was defiantly bleeding. Before the wolf could do anything else Naruto brought up his right hand and charged an overly big rasengan. As he pushed it against the wolfs head he called out "Rasengan". As the spinning ball of chakra hit the wolf it crumbled down into rocks. Falling over from the force of the jutsu Naruto slammed into the ground. Ino ran to his side looking at the wound. The adults running over.
"Naruto, can you breathe? is it bad?" Questions like this coming from everybody.
"Can someone help me and get this shirt off me" Naurto asked, pain evident in his voice. Ino held out her arm and helped him get up.
"oh my god im so sorry Naruto, I was taken off guard and didn't have any gear" She said worryingly, pulling up his blood covered shirt and dropping it onto the ground.
"No its my fault, I Just can't control that jutsu" He said, angry at himself.
"Should we take him to a hospital?" Inos mother asked in a worried tone.
"No there's no point. With the amount of kyubis chakra he has it should heal soon" Minato said, bringing everyone's attention back to the wound to see the three claw marks down his chest already healing. "Don't use that jutsu again unless either me or someone else of the same skill is there watching"
"Yeah don't worry, That's going to hurt tomorrow" Naruto said. He was paying attention to his father talk about the kyubis healing when he felt something tug him into his mind.
He looked around and suddenly he was in "sewer" he identified as his mind scape. He turned around a saw the kyubi behind the cage.
"Hey kit, that was stupid what you just did. I'll heal you but your eyes will change." The massive building sized fox said to the boy.
"Ok thanks for that kurama" Naruto said just before came back to the others.
"Your eyes have gone red Naruto" Ino said worried slightly.
"Its fine, kuramas feeding me his chakra directly to the wound so it should heal up" Naruto said as he looked down to the wound which had steam hissing off it. A minute later the wound had healed up only leaving three long scars going down his chest.
"Well its probably time we should get back home" Inoichi said with Fugaku agreeing.
After the good byes and everyone left the house felt empty. Minato and Naruto sitting on the couch.
It was silent until Minato decided to break the silence "Its her birthday today you know" Narutos fists clenching hard. He didn't like to talk about his mother, it reminded him that he'll never get to meet her. After this they both went off silently to their bedrooms.
The Next day.
Naruto groaned as he turned around in his bed, clenching his eyes shut due to the sun light hitting his face from the open window. He finally opened his eyes getting used to the light level. He turned to look at the clock and saw the time, fifteen minutes until he had to be at the academy. He walked his way through the house and started getting ready which consisted of him getting a shower and dressed.
He made sure to grab all of his ninja gear and went to the mirror in the bathroom, checking his look. Trying to style his hair, but gave up due to the way it would just go back into the same position. He went over his mental check list; shoes, yep, shirt and trousers, yep, kunai, yep. Knowing he had everything he made sure the house was locked and flashed away leaving a bright yellow flash behind.
