Hey GGxZeus again I'm just so happy with the feedback I received in the first day but semi disappointed with the lack of reviews. I would like to give a shout out to everyone who reviewed, followed or favorite myself or the story:

I just wanted to thank you for your support and loved the feedback. I love positive feedback or constructive criticism because these stories are meant to improve people and enjoy themselves and helping me grow as a writer. Now I am also answering to concerns of someone about yaoi which has been explained to me. I won't be including yaoi in the story unless I feel it must be included which is unlikely . Close friendships between males are definitely going to be present in the story. Now I would also like to voice the concerns about my summary issues which made me aware that it was lacking. IF anyone could help with some pointers on that front it would be appreciated.
Now anyways I hope you guys noticed that I am updating the next day which is due to the alerts and follows even the few reviews which encouraged me from taking what I hoped to be a weekly update on Mondays. Well if you guys increase the amount of reviews and follows I will surely update soon enough. Now I'm also made aware that I had some mistakes in structuring and I am glad someone was willing to help with that cause now I know my mistake. If you find issues or contradictions always voice them cause I look at all reviews and try to respond and accommodate them.
Naruto: The Demon of the Past and Hero of Tomorrow
Naruto stood away from the crowd of parents and children gathering in front of the academy. Naruto had spotted the two girls who had yelled at him in the alleyway and the trio of bullies off the side not paying attention to the ceremony. The Old Man had moved to the archway in front of the crowd and was smiling at the citizens of Konoha.
"Ladies and Gentleman I am here to greet the next year of the ninja academy and show my support for the next generation. Some of us are starting to feel their age and know that their fire must be passed on and we all hope that we can with our children. Now I would like every child who is starting this year to follow me into the classroom please". Sarutobi signalled for the children to follow him as he entered the archway into the classroom.
Naruto started to follow behind everyone when the hushed talk and secret whispers started when he was following behind the group. The whispers of him being in the academy now and how I a demon wasn't welcome within the academy were common topics. If this had happened to Naruto a few months ago he would have cried but he was over. He wasn't cry for these people to enjoy because they didn't deserve it. He would be Hokage and they would all see how great he was.
The group shuffled into a large class with odd glances pointed at Naruto. The class eventually gathered and sat together in their desks with the Hokage in front with a taller man wearing a Jounin vest with the front unzipped to show his muscular chest. He had the leaf symbol tattooed onto his shoulder and he had a strange light blue hair color. The man's hair looked unruly with the strands of his hair standing on its edges while he smiled a toothy grin at the class.(Sorry for the interruption but for a better idea imagine Natsu from fairy with blue hair and a Jounin vest and without his scarf) Naruto smiled at the teacher but when he looked at Naruto his face turned into a grim look with evil eyes.
"So even the teachers don't like me, isn't this just great." Naruto just slumped down in his desk beside a girl Naruto hadn't seen before. She had purple hair and pale complexion and seemed to be giving Naruto an odd look. Naruto shrugged and waited for the Hokage to continue talking after everyone was seated.
"Okay students this here will be your sensei and he seems to have already started your lesson on a basic technique you need to know to finish your stay at the academy. Iruka if you would so kind as to release your technique please." The blue haired man nodded at the Hokage and put his hands together and shouted "Kai".
The blue haired man was covered in smoke and when the smoke cleared he was replaced by a slightly shorter man with a pony tail and a large scar across his cheekbones and the bridge of his nose. Naruto was amazed that something like this existed and this would allow him to prank much easier.
"Hello class my name is Iruka and you will call me Iruka-sensei as a sign of respect. Now as the Hokage just said I was performing a technique known as Henge No Jutsu which is a requirement to become a Genin of the leaf…" Naruto was growing bored of the guys talk and started to look around the classroom. Naruto noticed the two girls from before were currently having a silent argument behind the eyes of young guy like Naruto who had long black hair and the same bored expression like Naruto had. Naruto heard a whistle sound and was smacked on the head with an Eraser block.
"Hey Blondie listen to me at least on orientation day. I'm trying to help you learn you are staring off to space like an idiot. What am I boring you or something?"
Naruto rubbed the back of his head looked to the front of the class. The Hokage must have left while Naruto was dozing off so now he was all alone. " Yes you were boring me why can't we do something interesting instead of rambling on about the history of the leaf village. We all know about how amazing the first two Hokages were and how they united the village clans into on big village. I can already tell you how amazing the vast knowledge of the third is but I can also tell you how the Old Man is a pervert and likes to sit around and blow smoke. Why don't you just teach me something interesting for a change".
Iruka was spellbound by the knowledge Naruto just boasted. Sure it was easy to access knowledge but that's because people learned on the first week of the academy but it's the fact he knew it before the academy knew that. "How did you learn all that Blondie?"
Naruto was shocked when everyone was staring at him with wide eyes even the sensei looked startled. "Look all I did was read a few books from the library about some stuff I should know for the academy. I heard some kids get an education from their parents before the academy starts so I wanted to level the playing ground a bit." Naruto shrugged and slumped back down in his seat while everyone resumed looking at the teacher while a few hushed whispers that had Naruto's name in it.
"So anyways back to my lesson, yes Naruto did a good recap of some stuff you will need to know in the academy but there is some more you need to know. Our lessons for the next few days will consist on increasing your knowledge on the hidden leaf and I hope everyone pays attention because we don't leave all information in books."
Naruto couldn't help but crack a smile at Iruka's shot at him in his lesson and he made a point to listen to his lessons from now on.
It has been 6 weeks for Naruto as he had studied at the academy and his relationships with people were degrading severely. The only person that seemed to enjoy Naruto's presence was Iruka-sensei but everyone else continued to shun him. There were no practical lessons, it was all book learning and Naruto knew basically all of it due to his intensive studying during his off time from the academy and his preparation before the academy started. Naruto had shuffled into his seat beside the purple haired girl who's named, he had just learned recently was Hinata.
Iruka-sensei was standing at the front of the class waiting for everyone`s attention and when everyone quieted down he spoke. "Well guys now that our knowledge base has increased enough so everyone knows the basics of the ninja art and of being a ninja in the hidden leaf. It's time to practice some battle skills. We are going to be testing you on your chakra ability, taijutsu ability and your kunai ability. We are going to do a simple test with chakra ability and that will consist of trying push chakra to feet and legs and sprinting to me across the field. Okay Naruto and Sasuke here for the first race".
Naruto noticed that the Sasuke guy was actually the guy who was being ogled over by the two girls so Naruto made a point to beat him. Iruka was across the field and signalled for the two to get ready. He threw down his arm and signalled for the duo to sprint off with the class cheering for Sasuke to win. Naruto finished several seconds behind and was winded while Sasuke seemed just fine.
"Naruto you shouldn't have been that slow, did you not use chakra". Naruto scratched his head while kicked the dirt with his feet and looked away sheepishly.
"Umm Sensei I don't know how to summon my chakra". Iruka simply nodded understanding the issue and whispered into Naruto's ear the simple way of drawing it up. Naruto and Sasuke were ready to race again but towards the group of students with Iruka behind. Sasuke still beat Naruto by several seconds. Iruka just sighed and was about to move on when Naruto startled him.
"Sensei one more chance to beat him so I can show I'm the greatest". Naruto's words created an uproar mostly centred on the two girls from the alley that were currently talking about how he was worthless.
Iruka just sighed and nodded to Sasuke making sure he was okay with another race. Naruto and Sasuke returned to their previous spot so they would be racing towards the crowd again. Sasuke nudged Naruto and gave him an evil glare
" You are dead last and worthless, you don't deserve another try but I'm going to actually try this time to show you how worthless you are".
Naruto felt his blood boiling and leaned into his running stance and did as Iruka instructed him to and pushed the fire in his belly straight to his legs and feet and let it burn in his legs into a cooling sensation. When Iruka's hand fell this time, both Naruto and Sasuke sprinted forward in speeds exceeding both of their previous speeds and Naruto barely a stride behind Sasuke. This time they both sat panting in the grass with the crowd standing around shocked. Naruto stood and offered his hand to Sasuke.
Sasuke grabbed Naruto's offered hand and rose to his feet. He looked at Naruto and nodded to him and then walked away from the group to sit in the shade. The crowd was shocked by what happened aside from the cheers from Ino and Sakura who were praising Sasuke on his great victory
Okay Guys that's Chapter 2 and I hope you all enjoyed it. I was trying to put a spin on Naruto's childhood by not making him such a knucklehead. I was always upset with the way Naruto was treated when he showed signs of intelligence. Well anyways that it just remember I'm looking for some help with summary. Member guys and gals I would love some reviews wither positive or negative or simple improvements because I accept all. Its a few words and a little care that will always help me update faster. Just taking another moment to thank the people who followed, reviewed or favorite cause it means a lot.

Would you guys prefer one a day or every two with 2000 words chapters or once a week with 12000 words chapters. Its your choice just let me know
