Chapter 2
Over the next year Kurenai, Anko, and Yuugao taught Naruto how to access his chakra, how to read, write, learned how he was supposed to act at important events, and about the history of Konoha. 3 months after he started to learn about chakra and learned that the Yondaime was the best seal master ever, he asked to learn seals so they started to buy scrolls to teach him from. Towards the end of his first year of learning he knew how to write basic storage seals though he didn't have the control of his chakra to use them properly. Also during this he learned that Hinata the heir to the Hyuuga clan was having a little sister born soon. He didn't know why this was important that they went to congratulate them on having a baby but did it anyway.
A few days after the birth of Hanabi Hyuuga Kurenai told him they was going to a funeral. He didn't know what a funeral was but his kaasan told him this was important and he had to behave or he would be punished. They arrived at the funeral, he was dressed in all black like everyone else. He looked around and saw a girl sitting by herself in the back. He walked t join her, "hello my name is Naruto Yuuhi" he said.
She looked at him, "I'm Hi-Hinata Hy-Hy-Hyuuga" she said while crying.
"I don't know who died do you" he asked.
"My ka-ka-kaasan" she cried out.
Naruto was quiet for a minute. Kurenai was about to move him away from Hinata so she can be by herself until he started to talk, "your lucky" he whispered just loud enough so only Kurenai and Hinata could here.
Hinata gasped, "ho-ho-how am I lu-lu-lucky" she stuttered out.
"Because you know your kaasan, you know what she looked like, how her voice sounded, you have memories of your kaasan, but me I never once got to see my kaasan she died giving birth to me, and my otousan also died before I was born, you have memories to remember your kaasan by I don't, I have to go by stories" he said sadly, then he perked up "but that's ok because now I have a new kaasan Kurenai she adopted me so now I know what you felt like when you was with your kaasan, you just have to remember those times when you get down and do everything you can to make your kaasan proud of you" he finished.
Kurenai smiled when he finished. Hinata just looked at him, "thank you Naruto-san you really helped me see that not everyone gets to see their kaasan, I'm just being selfish I should be happy of the time I got with her" Hinata said. Hinata looked up to her otousan, "Naruto-san how did you think of all that" she asked.
Naruto smiled, "I heard kaasan tell that to some girl whose mother died I memorized what she said because it made that girl feel better I thought it would make you feel better" he said.
"Thank you it did, I'm going up to sit with my otousan I hope one day we can be friends Naruto-san" she then walked up to sit next to her otousan. He looked down to her surprised that she came this close to her mothers dead body.
"Are you ok Hinata" he asked.
"Yes otousan, I just had to realize that not everyone have a kaasan to spend time with I just have to remember those times and try and make her proud" Hinata said.
Hiashi smiled, "just do your best, and I know I don't say it but I'm proud of you and always will be, remember when I talk negative that's because how I was raised and I'm trying to motivate you" he said.
Kurenai pulled Naruto onto her lap, "you did a good job Naru-chan" she told him.
"Kaasan, whats it like to lose someone" he asked.
Kurenai thought about it, "I hope you never have to know what that pain feels like baby" she said.
"Kaasan" he said.
"Yes" she replied.
"What was my real kaasan like" he asked.
"She acted just like you do, always full of energy, always wanting to learn, get stronger, help anyone she could, and beautiful" Kurenai said.
"Like you" Naruto asked.
Kurenai just smiled, "she was my jounin sensei when I was a genin" she said.
"Kaasan do you have anything that was my real kaasan" he asked.
She thought about it, "actually I do but you have to earn it first" she said.
"Ok kaasan, I hope Hinata-chan is going to be ok" he said.
"Kaasan is my real kaasan in here somewhere" he asked.
"Yes, I'll bring you to see her grave one day but not today" she said.
*-*_*-*
A week later Naruto was walking to eat lunch with Yuugao. They just finished part of their kunai and senbon training and she was treating him to lunch anywhere he wanted. The 5 year old boy ran happily as he led Yuugao to the ramen stand, he was a few steps in front of Yuugao when a scroll fell and hit Naruto in the head....again. Naruto rubbed the offended spot while picking up the scroll. Yuugao jumped on the roof of the building the scroll fell from and didn't see anyone so she dropped down and walked to Naruto, "you ok Naru-chan" she asked.
"Yes" he held the scroll so she can read them.
Yuugao took the scrolls and opened them. After reading them she looked at Naruto, "well someone gave you you sealing scrolls, we will work on them later" she told him.
"Ok, do you know who" he asked.
"No they was gone before I saw who did it" she replied.
*-*_*-*
Tsunade and Shizune was sitting at a casino in the middle of tea country. As Tsunade was deciding what game she wanted to play Jiraiya came up to them, "how have things been" he asked sitting across from Tsunade.
"As well as things can for a Sennin who hasn't betrayed their village" Tsunade replied.
"That's good, have you been back to the village" Jiraiya asked.
"Why should I go back, last time I went the counsel banned anyone from trying to adopt the gaki" Tsunade said.
Jiraiya nodded knowing what she was talking about, "I know but things have turned around for him, you should go see" he said.
"Maybe I'll check it out" Tsunade said.
"Just make sure you don't get caught you know how sensei is" Jiraiya said.
"Yea I know he still trying to get me to come back to teach medics" Tsunade said.
"Maybe you should, it will give you the money to pay off you debt" Jiraiya said.
"I have another idea to pay it off" she said looking at Jiraiya.
"I don't like the way your looking at me" Jiraiya said.
"Hey what are you two talking about and who is the counsel preventing you from adopting" Shizune said as she was confused by what they was talking about.
Tsunade looked at her, "don't worry about that right now, maybe one day you will meet him" she told her, "now Jiraiya how have the book sells been" she asked.
"Great my last book sold a million copies in 2 months" he said.
"Good, lets make a deal" she said.
"What type of deal" he asked.
Tsunade looked at Shizune, "can you leave us for a minute" she asked.
"Um sure" Shizune walked away.
*-*_*-*
Kurenai was standing in the forest of death with Naruto, "now I know usually we train at home or at Yuugao's house but now we need more space and this is technically owned by Anko and she let us use it, so for now on all your training will be held here" Kurenai said.
"Ok kaasan what are we going to do first" Naruto asked.
Kurenai went into her pocket, "I know your learning snake style from Anko but Yuugao found a taijutsu scroll in the ANBU archive it was developed by the Yondaime, the style is called: Wing Tsun and it basically uses your opponents force against them" she told him
"So with this style I will let my opponent attack first and use that momentum to get the advantage" Naruto asked.
"Exactly and when you combine this with snake style you will be hard to figure out, now get ready we are going to go over the first steps of the style" Kurenai said.
*-*_*-*
A month later Naruto was started to get the hang of the first stage of learning Wing Tsun. Kurenai, Anko, or Yuugao still haven't found out who drops those scrolls on Naruto's head but they wasn't complaining since they all had something to in them to help with his training, but still they at least wanted to know who was doing it. As they was walking looking for something to do another scroll fell down directly in front of Naruto. Kurenai looked up and saw a green flash of cloth and jumped up on to the roof. As soon as she got there the person vanished without a trace, "dammit" she yelled.
"Whats wrong" Anko asked jumping next to her.
"I almost caught the person who keeps dropping those scrolls, I saw a green shirt or jacket when I got up here they had just vanished" Kurenai said.
"Don't worry we will catch them soon" Anko said.
"Kaasan whats this" Naruto yelled.
Anko and Kurenai dropped down from the roof and looked at what was sealed in the scroll, "Naru-chan this is a rod they are extremely hard to use and only a few have ever completely mastered using one, the last was your kaasan Kushina" Kurenai said.
"So I'm going to learn to use it" Naruto asked.
"Yup" Kurenai said.
*-*_*-*
Tsunade met Jiraiya at a bar in wave country, "why are we meeting in a bar pervert" she asked.
"Hey I paid off your debt the least you could do was meet me here" Jiraiya responded.
Tsunade looked around and made sure no one was listening, "and I let you model one of your characters off me so we are even" she said.
"Yes we are, and I must say I think this next book will be my best seller" he responded.
"I just want my cut for letting you use me as a main character and nothing about me better not be in that book" she said.
"Don't worry I have more respect to put actual things about friends in my books, and you will get your cut, I'll deposit it into your bank account" he said.
"Good, did you go back to the village" Tsunade asked.
"Yes I went back you" he asked.
"I had to sneak away from Shizune while she was sleeping but I was able to get there" Tsunade said.
"What do you think" he asked.
*-*_*-*
Naruto had just finished learning another stance in the snake style and was sitting in the forest of death studying scrolls on sealing. He had spent as much time as possible to learn sealing since Kurenai, Anko, and Yuugao worried about teaching him everything else he needed to know. He pulled out his ink and practice scrolls and started to write seals on them. Over the fence flew a scroll landing right in front of him. Naruto looked up and only saw a puff of smoke and shrugged. He opened the scroll, becoming a seal master by Minato Namikaze he read.
Pulling the book out the scroll he opened the first page and started to read. Anko walked up, "hey Naru-chan where did you get the book" she asked kneeling down to read the name of it.
"It flew over the gate and landed in front of me, I looked up and only saw smoke" he told her then went back to reading.
"I see" she said getting up and walking out the gate. She looked around and but saw nothing that could give her a clue about who threw it.
*-*_*-*
A week later all three kunoichi's and Naruto was in the Hokage's office, "what do you want jiji we got training to do" Kurenai said.
"I realize that but I have been getting complaints that scrolls have been coming up missing" the Hokage said.
"And this has what to do with us" Anko asked.
"Well I was wondering if you knew anything about it, there was a report that Naruto has been getting scrolls from an unknown source" he said.
"Oh and who filled this report and how would they know where he got scrolls from, if you forgot he is not allowed in any shinobi stores" Kurenai said.
"I know but I have to ask so we can prove his innocence" the Hokage said.
"Well he is innocent he never is out in the village without one of us" Yuugao said.
"Ok well I'll let you get on with your training, but if you see anything that will help us solve this let me know so far the only scrolls that have been taken are E rank, but we don't want anyone thinking they might have the chance for something bigger" the Hokage said.
"We will keep an eye out" Kurenai said walking out the door.
*-*_*-*
Naruto was getting ready for his second birthday with his 3 guardians. Although Kurenai was his official kaasan he felt like Anko and Yuugao was also his kaasan's. They all even moved into a house that they had build outside the forest of death. A lot of counsel members complained but they was quieted down by the clan heads of Hiashi, Tsume, Shibi, Shikaku, Inoichi, and Chouza. Even with the Uchiha backing having Naruto removed from the three kunoichi's protection they elders wasn't able to get enough backing to force the removal, mainly because most the shinobi force thought it was a good idea for him to have parents and the ANBU more specifically prevented the counsel from doing anything by backed him being raised by the three 100 percent.
Naruto walked down the steps in his normal attire of all orange clothes and went to eat breakfast like normal. As he sat down Kurenai looked at him, "so Naru-chan what do you want to do for your birthday" she asked.
Naruto thought, "well it would be nice if I had some friends" he said.
The three nodded, "leave it to me" Kurenai said.
"Ok what else" Anko asked.
"Well a party would be great but its not enough people to have one, so I guess ice cream and cake" he said.
"Consider it done, now lets go Naru-chan its a great day and you should have some fun before that festival start" Yuugao said leading outside once he was finished eating.
"Yuugao-kaasan whats that festival for and why don't I ever get to go" he asked.
"Well I don't know how to explain it right now just wait till you get older and able to protect yourself better and I'll take you" Yuugao responded.
"Ok" he said.
*-*_*-*
A few hours later Yuugao brought Naruto back to the house and immediately took him up to his room, "now Naru-chan don't come out your room until I come get you" she then gave him a new book on scrolls to learn from, "here look through this until I come back" she told him.
Yuugao went down stairs, "how is everything coming along" she asked.
"Good so far, Kurenai went to invite some people and their kids" Anko said.
"Great, need any help" Yuugao asked.
"Yea can you start the check the cake" Anko said.
*-*_*-*
Kurenai arrived at her first house, the Nara's and knocked. Shikaku opened the door, "how can I help you Kurenai" he asked.
"Well today is Naruto's birthday and I came to invite you to the house" she said.
"Sure we will be over, Yoshino doesn't like that festival knowing what the meaning behind it is" Shikaku said.
"Ok thank you, anyone you know who might want to come" Kurenai asked.
"Yes Inoichi has a daughter Naruto's age and Chouza has a son they both come over a lot they might want to come" he told her.
"Ok thanks I'll invite them" Kurenai said walking away.
She then walked to the Akimichi compound and knocked, "hello Chouza Shikaku said that you had a son Naruto's age and I came to invite you to his birthday party" she said.
Chouza thought, "we will come" he said.
"Ok bye" she then walked away. She walked to the Yamanaka flower store and saw Ino, "hey Ino where is your otousan" she asked.
Ino turned he is in the back of the shop why do you need anything" Ino asked.
"No I just came to invite you to Naruto's birthday party" Kurenai said.
"But ain't the festival today" Ino asked.
"Yes it also is his birthday today, e never had a party so I decided to give him one" Kurenai said.
"What how can he never have had a party before" Ino asked astonished as she remember the many birthday parties she had.
"Well I adopted him 2 years ago" Kurenai said.
"Oh" Ino thought, "hold on I'll ask otousan" she said. She ran into the back then came back a few minutes later, "he said he will bring me" Ino said.
"Great he knows where my house is" Kurenai then walked out of the shop.
She arrived at the Inuzuka compound 10 minute later, "hey Tsume I came to invite you and your 2 kids to Naruto's birthday party" she said.
Tsume thought, "I'll try and get there, but Kiba really likes that festival for some reason, Hana hates it, says its pointless and something about seeing a kid beat at it" Tsume said.
"I see, well if you want you can drop Hana off then take Kiba to the festival then come by later with him" Kurenai suggested.
"I will do that" Tsume said.
"Great, now I have to go to the Hyuuga's" Kurenai said and left.
She arrived at the Hyuuga compound and was surprised to see Hiashi standing there as if he was waiting for her, "you finally came" he said.
"You was waiting for me" she asked.
"Yes I been waiting for you to come by ever since Naruto and Hinata met at the funeral she has been wanting to play with him for sometime, but with Hanabi I don't have the time to take her to your house" he said.
"I see well I apologize for that, but I came to invite you and your kids to his party" she said.
"I figured as much, but I must decline as I have a lot of work, but if you want you can take Hinata and Hanabi with you and I'll send a Hyuuga guard to pick them up at 9" he said.
Kurenai looked at her watch, "that gives them 3 and a half hours to play, I'll take them with me" she said.
"Great I'll go get them" he said walking into the compound. Soon Kurenai had both Hinata and Hanabi, after a visit to the Aburame compound they walked to her house.
*-*_*-*
Kurenai, Hanabi, and Hinata arrived at the house, "hold on Hinata let me make sure that Naru-chan is dressed properly" Kurenai then put Hanabi down so she could walk around and went upstairs. She came down a few minutes later, "ok Hinata you can go up, his door is the one that's open" she told her.
Hinata walked upstairs and knocked on the open door. Naruto looked up at her and smiled, "hello want to play with me" he asked.
"Yes" she replied.
Naruto went into his chest that was by his closet and opened, "come on I have a lot of things to play with" he said.
Hinata walked into the room and over to the chest and looked, "wow this is a lot" she said.
"Don't you have toys" Naruto asked.
"Oh I have some toys actually me and my imouto have a entire room for our toys" she said as she pulled things out to play with.
Soon the other kids started to arrive, "whoa Hinata I didn't know you would be here" Ino said from the door.
Hinata looked over at her and smiled, "hello Ino" she said.
"Hey you want to play with us" Naruto asked to the 4 kids at his door.
"Sure" Choji said walking in followed by Ino, Shikamaru, and Shino.
Soon Hana arrived and said good bye to her kaasan and otouto. As directed by Yuugao she walked up stairs to Naruto's room. She looked around, "well hello everyone I'm Hana" she said.
Naruto looked at her, "hi I'm Naruto, want to play with us" he said.
"Sure" she walked in the room and they started to play, shinobi. They all picked their favorite character and started to act like well shinobi.
An hour later Yuugao came up, "having fun" she asked.
"Yes Yuugao-kaasan" Naruto replied.
"Good now come down stairs dinner is ready" she said. They walked down stairs with Yuugao behind them all when there was a knock at the door, "coming" she said.
Yuugao walked and opened the door, "I'm back, Kiba got hungry and bored without Hana" Tsume said.
"Well come in, we was just about to serve dinner" Yuugao said.
They all walked into the kitchen and saw all the adults sitting at the table, "well form a line and wash your hands then come to me and Anko to get your food" Kurenai said.
*-*_*-*
9 came and everyone started to leave. The Hyuuga guard came and picked up a sleeping Hanabi and tired Hinata. Kurenai took Naruto to bed and tucked him in. after picking up the toys she closed the door and walked downstairs to the kitchen where Yuugao and Anko was cleaning up. She sat down, "that was a great party" she said.
"Yes it was, even if he didn't any presents he made some friends and that's all that matters" Anko said.
"I think him getting friends is enough of a present in his eyes" Yuugao said.
"Yes I'm actually surprised everyone showed up though with the festival and all" Kurenai said.
"Me to, I know Ino love that festival, even if she don't know what its for, Choji and Kiba are the same" Yuugao said as she remember watching them play at the festival.
"Well hopefully next year he will get presents" Anko said.
"Hopefully, well I have to get going you know how people get after the kids are gone at that festival" Yuugao said.
"How can we forget, they tried to break in the last house I bought" Kurenai said.
"We know that's why we decided to move in together" Yuugao said then she left.
Anko looked around, "she got out of cleaning again" she said.
"Stop complaining, Naru-chan is sleeping and we finally got the night to ourselves" Kurenai said.
Anko kissed Kurenai, "your right lets hurry and clean up and get to my room" she said.
*-*_*-*
3 months later Naruto stood in front of Kurenai, "ok Naru-chan show me what you learned so far in taijutsu" she said.
"Ok kaasan" Naruto responded.
Naruto got into the standard snake style stance. Kurenai got into her taijutsu stance. Naruto ran up to Kurenai and stopped when she was within his reach. Kurenai swung at him which he spent to the side and dodged and hit her with a left elbow in her side. Kurenai then did a spin kick at his head which he ducked under and punched her in the back. This continued for 2 hours with Kurenai steadily getting faster in her attacks. Soon Kurenai stopped, "that's enough Naru-kun" she said.
"So how did I do" he asked.
"Good, but your still to slow" Kurenai said.
"How do I fix that" Naruto asked.
"I'll start that training tomorrow for now don't worry about it" Kurenai said.
Yuugao walked up, "time for weapon training yet" she asked.
"Yes, I'm going to start his speed training tomorrow" Kurenai said.
"Ok, get ready Naru-chan" Yuugao said.
"Ok" Naruto unsealed his rod from the scroll and got into his stance after he was able to stand.
"Good, your stance has less flaws in it then last time" Yuugao said the attacked him without notice.
*-*_*-*
Danzo, Homura, and Koharu was sitting in a secret chamber, "we need to get those three away from that Kyuubi gaki so I can take him and turn him into our weapon" Danzo said.
"Yes we do but nothing we have tried have worked" Koharu said.
"I know any other ideas" Danzo asked.
"How bout sending them each on missions" Homura asked.
"Why didn't we think about this earlier" Danzo said. They walked out chamber.
*-*_*-*
Kurenai was in the Hokage's office, "I have an A ranked mission for you" he said.
"What kind" she asked.
"Infiltrate, seduce, and eliminate" he said.
"What I have any experience in these types of missions" Kurenai said.
"I know but most of our jounin's are out on missions, and your the only one left you will be able to get into Kiri unnoticed" he told her.
"Fine when do I leave" Kurenai asked.
"Immediately" the third responded. Kurenai nodded and walked out.
*-*_*-*
2 days later Anko was in the Hokage's office, "Anko I have a infiltrate and assassinate for you" he said.
"Rank" she asked.
"S" he told her.
"Great the target and when do I start" she asked.
"The target is Gato, his corporation is becoming to large and he is starting to hire missing nin's and using them to do his bidding, you will have a team of 2 ANBU's with you and you leave immediately" he said.
"Right" Anko then walked out.
*-*_*-*
3 days later Yuugao was in the Hokage's office with Naruto, "sorry Yuugao but I need you for a mission" he said.
"I am going to have to deny this mission until Kurenai or Anko returns" she said.
"I'm sorry but this mission needs your weapons expertise" he said.
"And what the hell do you expect me to do with Naru-chan until one of us returns" Yuugao yelled.
"I'm sure he will be safe until one of you return, I'll have ANBU watch over him until one of you return" he said.
Kakashi walked into the office into the office, "am I interrupting" he asked.
"No Kakashi you actually came at a perfect time" Yuugao said.
"I did" he asked confused.
"Yes I need someone to watch Naru-chan until one of us return from our mission" Yuugao said.
Kakashi looked at Naruto, "sure I'll do it" he said shrugging.
"Good, also we was supposed to start his speed training can you start it for us" she asked.
"Sure" Kakashi said.
"Good now that we have taken care of that you leave immediately Yuugao" the three then left the office.
*-*_*-*
Kakashi was sitting in the living room looking at Naruto, "so Naruto what do you normally do before you start training" he asked.
"Play in my room and sometimes my friends come over" he answered.
"You don't over their house" Kakashi asked.
"Yes, I only go over to their house when kaasan schedule it because all my friends are from clans" Naruto said.
"I see want to walk around the village before we start training you might meet someone new" Kakashi said.
Naruto shifted nervously remembering all the bad experiences from walking around the village, "kaasan said I'm not allowed out in the village without them" he said.
"Oh I see, well I promise nothing will happen and we will only stay out for an hour at most" he said.
Naruto thought, "ok" he said. Kakashi made a shadow clone to stay and watch over the house and they left.
*-*_*-*
They was on their way back when they passed a new weapons shop, "hey a new shop" Naruto said.
"Lets check it out" Kakashi said.
They walked into the shop and saw a girl who looked no older than Naruto flicking kunai's, shuriken's, senbon's, and anything else small enough to pick up with one hand and throw at a target without even looking up from her book. What amazed them was she was hitting every target dead on. Naruto's eyes widen, "amazing" he said.
The girl looked up, "oh sorry how can I help you" she asked.
"That was amazing, how you did you do that" Naruto asked.
She shrugged, "I don't know I just do" she responded.
"Can you teach me" Naruto asked.
"There is nothing to teach I never learned how to do it, I just do it, its a natural talent I have" she replied.
"Oh are you training to become a kunoichi" Naruto asked.
She looked at him, "no why" she asked.
"With an ability like that and the right training you can be a great kunoichi" Kakashi said.
"Well I have anyone to teach me and I have to help my dad around the shop" she said.
"Have you ever wanted to be a kunoichi" Kakashi asked.
"Yes I always wanted to be one ever since I heard of the Sennin Tsunade , she is my idol" Tenten said.
"If I promise to let you meet Tsunade will you become a kunoichi" Kakashi asked.
"Yes yes oh yes I will" Tenten said.
"Ok then if you become a kunoichi and I will get Tsunade to come meet you, maybe even teach you a few things" Kakashi said.
"Deal" Tenten said.
"Well I'm going to be a ninja, my name is Naruto" he said holding his hand out to her.
Tenten looked at him, "I heard about you, some people came in here and told us not to let you in saying how dangerous you are but you look harmless to me" Tenten said.
"He looks harmless to me also" Tenten's father said.
"Well my name is Tenten" she said shaking his hand.
"Well its good to meet you both but we have to be going" Kakashi
"Yes well come back soon" he said letting them out.
*-*_*-*
AN: how was it? If you have any ideas you think would make it better let me know, also I'm leaning towards a Hina-Naru-Kyu pairing and maybe adding Temari in but I'm not to sure if you have a favorite pairing let me know, but no gender changing pairings,so no Haku-Naru pairings, also please review, and I will be updating my other stories sometime in the next 2 weeks
