Hey, guys! It's your favorite friendly neighborhood narutosbro94 here! Sorry for the REALLY slow update, but between school and my job, I didn't have the time to update my fic. However, I have added on to Ch 2, so if you want to see the updated version, go on ahead back and give it a read. And, once again, I do not own Naruto or any other anime/manga/whatever used in this fanfiction for any reason whatsoever. This is the third installment of my storm element bloodline Naruto story. Good reviews are encouraged (read: CONSTRUCTIVE criticism) and hate/spam (read: FLAMES) are ignored. Let's get back to the story…

Last time, in The Hare-bringer of Thunder and Caller of Lightning

"Ah Kami, what the hell happened?" Naruto groaned as he woke. As soon as he opened his eyes, he immediately regretted it, seeing the blindingly white sterile tiles of the hospital. "Must have gotten the shit kicked out of me again, eh Dog-san?" Naruto rhetorically asked Kakashi who he knew was in the room, as always.

"Yeah, you can say that, I guess" Kakashi sighed out, apparently not liking the way the villagers mistreated the savior of their village. "Hey Dog-san?" Naruto started out. "Yeah, what is it?" Kakashi questioned. "You're strong right?" Naruto continued. "Well, you have to be in order to be able to join ANBU." Kakashi chuckled. "Well, I was sort of wondering if you would be able to teach me something, or anything for that matter?" Naruto finished.

"W-What?" Kakashi stammered out. "I said, I was wondering if you would be able to train me?" Naruto questioned Kakashi again. As Naruto said this, Kakashi was taking Naruto's proposal into serious consideration. "Well, it's the least I owe the kid. I mean after all, the boy's father was my sensei. " "Eh, what the hell. Sounds like fun." Kakashi replied.

"Yatta! Dog-san is going to train me!" Naruto exclaimed. "Whoa, slow down there Naruto. Hokage-sama has to approve this first." Kakashi said, stopping Naruto in his tracks. "Aw man, Hokage-jiji isn't going to let me train." Naruto groaned out. "We'll just see about that, Naruto-kun." Kakashi chuckled out.

At the Hokage's office…

"I don't care what you think Danzo, Naruto is NOT going to be turned into a human weapon." Hiruzen Sarutobi said to another elderly man with a cane, now identified as Danzo.

Danzo is an elderly man who, more than likely, has seen his fair share of battles, his multiple injuries a testament to that. He has bandages covering most of his body, including the right side of his face and both of his arms, one covered by a cast iron gauntlet and in a sling. You see, Danzo has a more militant view of how Konoha should be led, including how Konoha's "foremost weapon" should be treated. Anyway, back to the story.

"Hiruzen, you will see things my way, or you'll regret it." Danzo said and left, his threat hanging in the air. "I swear, that man will be the death of me before the Shinigami himself." Sarutobi thought wearily.

There was a knock at the door. "Enter." Hiruzen boomed at the person who knocked. "Hey Oji-san!" Naruto yelled as he ran through the door to greet the old shinobi. "Ah Naruto, to what do I owe the pleasure of your company? Shouldn't you be in the hospital?" Sarutobi questioned. "No, Dog-san signed me out because he said he would train me!" Naruto expunged. "Actually Hokage-sama, that's what we came here for." Kakashi, still in ANBU gear, said sheepishly while scratching the back of his head.

"Ah, come in then." Sarutobi said, turning serious. "Right, well, I believe I should be able to train Naruto I am the best towards his bloodline and-" Kakashi started. "Wait, how do you know of Naruto's bloodline?" Hiruzen asked suddenly. "All the recorded bloodlines, no matter how slim the chance of manifestation, are recorded in the vault of shinobi and civilian personal records, which only Jonin and above have access to." Kakashi explained. "Ah, right, I completely forgot about that." Sarutobi said, recalling that tidbit of information.

"Wait, I have a bloodline?" Naruto asked/yelled. "Yes, and a very powerful one at that." Hiruzen said, attempting to calm the young man down. "Now please be still, as Dog hasn't finished his explanation as to why he wants to train you." At this, Naruto stopped and quieted.

"Yes, well, I would like to train Naruto for his bloodline, as well as to let him get a better understanding of his parents, or, more pointedly, his father." Kakashi said. "So, that all well and good, but how do you expect to teach him on how to combine his elements to form Storm Release?" Sarutobi asked. "Well, I was hoping that you would have something for him so that he may learn more about his abilities." Kakashi said to the Sandaime, hoping his suspicion was correct.

"As a matter of fact, I do have a couple of scrolls from his mother so that he may learn the Uzumaki jutsus unique to this element." Hiruzen said matter-of-factly. "So, what's it gonna cost, and what do I have to do about the council to make this happen?" Kakashi asked bluntly.

To be continued…
