Chapter 3: Shifting Waters
Naruto sat down and watched Tsunami sit down. He took a breath and knew what to say, he swore to himself that if anyone found out he would tell the truth.
He opened his mouth and said "October 10th was the day my mother went into labor but that night something horrible happened, something I don't want to talk about, but both of my parents died that night… It was on a nice sunny day in Konoha when I found out of my power, I was kicking in the water by a lake that no one, only me and the Old Man, he's the 3rd Hokage knew about. I wanted to play in the water so when I put my hand in front of me, I noticed something strange. The water… Started to move, first it was in a small circle, it just spun around and around, and when I started to move my hand around it spun faster and faster until it created a whirlpool when I stopped it stopped, I was shocked and surprised so I got up and went to go tell the Old Man, when I got there and told him about it, he noticed my eyes were spinning like the whirlpools itself and then he told me everything, who my parents were, who I was, what my clan is, everything… I was surprised and shocked but he then told me I wasn't supposed to know until I was 18 years old but since my bloodline woke up so early he told me then… After that I vowed to become strong, to become great like my mother and father, to be someone who cared and loved the village like they did… I started to train harder and harder each day. But I swore never to tell anyone unless they see me or figure out that I have the Boushi Gogyou Bloodline…."
(Boushi Gogyou means Spinning Water, big thanks to Madidi for this part!)
Tsunami then asked out loud "So only the 3rd knows, not your team?" Naruto nodded but stopped, now that he remembered something "Well, there are a few others, like Iruka-Sensei, he's like a dad to me, when he got hurt trying to save me I healed him up and he asked me how I did that, the Old Man came and told him everything…" Naruto then remembered that night…
(Flashback)
Naruto smiled big as soon as he heard the words he passed, but his smile stopped when he heard Iruka in pain still, his eyes widened and he said "Iruka-Sensei!" he tried to help the poor bleeding ninja up, Iruka smiled to Naruto and said "Hey I'm okay, just a little hurt not to much.." Naruto shook his head and said "No! Your hurt…" Iruka then said "Well I might be a little but nothing to bad…" Naruto shook his head again and said "Your really hurt Iruka-Sensei, let me see…" Iruka then fell to the ground in some pain.
Iruka smiled at the caring little blonde trying to look over him, Iruka tried to calm him down, but stopped when he saw his eyes, Iruka's eyes widened as he saw the blue in Naruto's eyes swirl around and tears starting to form, Naruto spoke again and said "Please, I can heal you Iruka-Sensei.." Iruka heard the plead in the younger boy's voice, and he nodded.
He let Naruto look at the wound before Iruka felt something strange, he looked out the corner of his eyes and saw the blonde had placed his hands in front of him and they were glowing ocean blue, Iruka then felt like he was in the water, and waves of an ocean washing over him.
Then he didn't feel any pain anymore, nothing, he looked to his back and saw Naruto smiling. He looked at Naruto for a moment before watching the blonde sit next to him and take his hurt arm, Naruto placed his hand on it and it glowed again, the wound healed up very fast.
Naruto looked up and smiled to his sensei before hearing Iruka ask, knowing for sure that the blonde was no medical ninja "Naruto… How did you do that?" Naruto smiled softly before hearing someone said "Its part of his bloodline Iruka…" Naruto looked up and smiled to the Hokage who was walking closer to them.
Iruka's eyes widened and asked out loud "Bloodline? Naruto has a-" The 3rd cut in and said "Yes he does, its called the Boushi Gogyou…" Iruka's eyes widened very wide this time, he spoke the words out "T-The Boushi Gogyou! I-I thought that was a myth!"
Naruto shook his head and said "Its not Iruka-Sensei, I have it….You saw my eyes, that's how you know…." Iruka looked at the boy before smiling softly he then thought to himself 'He truly is something different…' The 3rd then spoke up "I'll tell you everything Iruka, only if you don't tell anyone about this…" Iruka nodded and listened to the story
(Out of flashback)
Naruto then said "Yeah some people know, but can you please not tell my team, if they found out I don't know what they'll do…" Tsunami nodded before she asked out "Why?…" Naruto smiled big to the her and said "I made a promise to the 3rd, and I don't want to break it…" Naruto gave a sigh and looked out the window and then he saw the lake. He smiled softly before getting up and saying "I'm going to go train, tell the others that I'll be back later, maybe before the sun sets…"
She nodded and watched the blonde walk out the door, she smiled softly at how brave the kid was…
(Later that Day)
Naruto sat in a unknown area in the forest and smiled as he hugged his knees, the butterflies flew around him softly and so did the birds, animals grew close to the young Uzumaki knowing he was different from other humans they had seen, Naruto smiled softly and hummed to himself before deciding he needed to train. As he started to train, he moved the water in a near by pond, it moved out from the pond and went to him.
He twisted the water in his hands as if trying to make a whirlpool out of the pond, but he then heard a sound, a snapping of a twig, the water dropped and hit the ground around Naruto, he looked back fast to were the twig snapped, Naruto blinked trying to find whoever did that, he looked and saw no one there.
His eyes softened before he went to pick up his jacket he had left on the ground from before his training, he looked at the woods again before running off to find a more secret spot, he didn't want someone to see, especially if he didn't know who was there…
As he walked he heard a voice in his mind say "Damn Kit, calm down no one is there…" Naruto smiled to himself and said in his mind 'Sorry Fluffy, I just don't like the idea that someone can spy on us, I don't need word getting out…' Kyuubi glared at the nickname but said "I thought I told you stop calling me that, and don't worry if anyone finds out just let me take over and I'll kill them…."
Naruto glared at Kyuubi mentally and said 'Kyuubi No Kitsune, I thought I told you I do not want the blood of the innocents on my hands… And you may have told me to stop but did I say I was going to? No I didn't so get over it Fluffy!' Kyuubi growled in Naruto's mind, Naruto giggled at the cursing Kyuubi. As he reached a nice area Naruto laid on the ground on his back, he stared at the sky and smiled softly before his eyes closed on him and he drifted to sleep..
A person moved from the tree he was hiding behind and slowly walked to were he had saw the blonde run to. He too started to run, in his mind were the words 'He's almost like me!' Haku made a died stop when he saw the blonde sleeping in a clearing field of flowers, he walked slowly to the blonde and leaned down, he then placed his hands near the blondes neck and muttered "He's almost like me… He can move the water…" Haku knew the boy was special since he saw him at that battle with Zabuza.
He stopped and woke the boy up saying "You'll catch your death out here…." Naruto woke up seeing a kind face, he blinked softly and said "Oh… Hello… Who are you?"
(Meanwhile)
Sakura then asked out loudly "Is it me or was Tsunami-San a little bit protective about Naruto?" Tazuna saw Sasuke and Kakashi nod a little as they walked around the village, Inari was thinking about why did his mother care so much about the blonde while Tazuna then began to think 'Why is Tsunami so protective with him? But still something is different with that boy, I mean one moment he's happy and the next he's pissed off about something almost like the shifting tides of water.. And that strange symbol on his arm, the one with the spiral mark, where have I seen it before… it seems familiar…'
He was pulled out of his thoughts when he heard Kakashi say "Tazuna-Sama, we should head back now…"
(Meanwhile)
"Do you have a precious person Naruto?" Naruto's eyes widened a little as he heard the person named Haku ask this question, Naruto was silent for a moment before saying "Yeah, I have a few precious people…." Haku then asked "Would you die for them and kill for them if you must?" Naruto looked from the field of flowers around them both and looked at Haku, his eyes scanned Haku before saying "If it was to protect them then yes… but…"
Haku looked at the blonde haired boy and asked "But what?" Naruto smiled softly and said "I'll try to find another way then just fighting, I mean sure I have to fight to protect the person I care the most about but we can't always fight to win. I mean think about it, our lives are like the water tides itself, it changes and shifts… Just like life it changes and shifts, one moment the current of water is one way and the next its different… And in a blink of an eye the tides of water can stop, just like life…" Haku smiled softly before saying "It seems like you care for even people you have yet to meet huh?"
Naruto smiled softly and said "Yeah… But its just who I am…" Haku blinked before saying "I better leave… my precious person is waiting…" Naruto nodded and watch Haku leave, but before Haku was to far away Naruto said not even looking at him "Say hi to Zabuza for me… And maybe we'll see each other later Haku…"
Haku's eyes widened a bit and he stopped walking, the wind blew as the Uzumaki looked to the field of flowers, Haku didn't look back but heard "And please don't tell what you saw today, maybe next time we meet I can tell you about it but for now I have to get going…"
Haku heard the blonde get up and walk away to the house of the bridge builder, now that the sun was starting to set…
(Later at the house)
Naruto opened the door only to hear "Where have you been?!" he looked up and saw a pissed off Sakura, he smiled his mask grin and said "Training! I lost track of time Sakura-Chan and I took a nap by accident…" Sakura rolled her eyes in annoyance before saying "Man, why can't you be more like Sasuke-Kun!"
It was Naruto's turn to roll his eyes but then he noticed he did that right in front of Kakashi, Sakura, and Sasuke, their eyes were a little wide at the look the blonde gave them as if he found the pink haired girl he was crushing on annoying, before they could ask him anything Inari said still not believe that they could protect his grandfather from Gato "Train all you like, there's no way you can beat Gato, he'll kill you all, so if I was you I would get out of here…."
Tsunami only shook her head at her son and her eyes grew soft until the blonde walked right over to the ranting kid and bonked him right on the head, her eyes widened a little but heard from the blonde "Inari just listen to yourself! You act like this guy is immortal or something?! No one is immortal Inari! Even Gato has weakness and even he can die! So stop acting like a brat that lost his ice cream and get over it! Because guess what me and my team will stop Gato and we will free your village even if we have to die! Gato is nothing but a man that needs to be stopped for what's he doing, so suck it up and stop acting like a big baby!!"
Inari eyes stared at the blonde for a long time until his eyes went down and stared at the floor, he got from his seat and ran off out of the door, everyone stared for a while until Sakura turned to yell at her teammate only to see he was halfway down the hall to the guest room, he needed a nap…
(Later that night)
Naruto woke up knowing someone was near his door that went outside, he got up slowly and heard voices, as he got close to the door he heard it was Kakashi and Inari's voices, he listened closely only catching the words "You know, I heard what happened to your step father… I heard he was a brave man…" Inari spoke now "Yeah he was…." Kakashi then said "I see… You know your lucky Inari…"
Inari looked at Kakashi and asked "How am I lucky?…" Kakashi chuckled and said "Because unlike Naruto, you have a family…. Do you know why Naruto tries so hard?…" Inari shook his head no Kakashi then said "It's because he wants to prove to the village he has what it takes to be Hokage, its also because he wants people to look at him… In his entire life he has been alone, he grew up without a mother or father to care for him and yet he's still able to smile so big… He didn't even have friends when he was growing up… He's strong… If I was him I would have gone insane… And yet he's still able to try, and he's still able to smile so big…Now that takes true courage and bravery…"
Naruto stopped listening and pulled away from the door, he stared at them as if he could see them from behind the door, he then shook his head and went to get some water from the kitchen, as he went out the room he knew the shifting tides of life was changing again.. Something was coming… He just didn't know what…
I like this story so far its not good but at the same time not bad. And yeah I know Sasuke didn't have much to say in the story but its the best as I can come up with at the moment, don't worry next time he'll say a few words... . Maybe... Just kidding, he will! And don't worry this is still Yaoi, both of them will get together soon!
Also I know I have spelling mistakes and stuff like that but I'm still learning how to write perfectly, and sometimes my damned spell checker changes the words!!
So anyway review if you like the story and wish for me to go on, if you don't like the story then why the heck did you keep reading it until you reached the end! No flames!
