Chapter 3 – Team Kakashi, and The Secret is Told.
"Ok you three tomorrow I want you all to meet at training ground 7 at 8 sharp no exceptions,also you might want to skip eating cause you will be throwing it back up. Ja ne!" and with that kakashi proofed out of existence.
Naruto took this as cue to leave also slowly vanished from sight of the last two of the team. Kakashi arrived at the hokages tower, but what sarutobi and kakashi or even the anbu expected was for naruto to appear in a flash of blue light with water flowing in a pillar around him.
"Yo!" stated naruto trying to act like kakashi, much to said person dismay.
"naruto, I told you we were done for the day? Why are you here?" asked kakashi trying to figure out what technique the blond had used.
"Well kakashi-sensei, unlike you I had an appointment with sarutobi-jiji, Also... JIJI WHAT THE HELL , I WILL NOT WORK WITH A FANGIRL SO STUCK UP THE UCHIHA'S BUTT THAT SHE WONT TRAIN" after finishing his statement , kyuubi backed away sensing naruto anger levels rising more and more.
"miko to naruto over, come in naruto, CARM DOWN NARUTO DAMMIT!!" mentally yelled Miko form her cage
"YoU BettER haVe a GooD Reason Jiji" said naruto killing intent rising in said boy extremely fast, seen the situation sarutobi and kakashi did the fastest and most efficient way to calm naruto down.
"Naruto, my boy if you calm down and listen to me ill explain it all also ill buy you some free ramen hows that sound?" stated the panicking Sarutobi
not one of the anbu had ever seen sarutobi panic that much surely this child wasn't that bad heck he may have kyuubi inside of him and a wolf companion but how could a 13 year old boy scare the god of ninja, it just didn't make sense.
Upon hearing free ramen naruto immediately calmed himself and listened to patiently for sarutobi to explain along with kakashi, Seen as naruto had calmed down sarutobi and kakashi both sighed.
"Well naruto the reason she was on the team, is she will be working with sasuke, there is another member to your team, in fact the reason I called you here for this meeting is that she will be arriving any time now and she will be working with you in a two man cell, you will be under the supervision of Uzuki Yugao when you are in the two man cell and when the four of you are together in a genin cell for certain missions, you will be with kakashi and Uzuki Yugao, Now before you go off on another major yelling match at me at least meet the two ok?" naruto seen sarutobi wasn't joking around nodded his head before a question appeared in his head.
"WAIT!, jiji you said I will be in a two man cell for most of the time unless certain missions require my team to be together, but I thought you had to be a 3 genin cell at all times , so why did this change jiji?" naruto showing the confusion on his face clearly but to kakashi and sarutobi's happiness he had asked the question they had hoped for.
"Now to answer that question naruto, we have a special job for you, this team mate of yours is the second person to be an special liaison Anbu in 5 years do you remember who the last one was naruto " upon finishing that sentence the room suddenly dropped several degree's and water was starting to form around naruto before his eyes flashed red anger and rage clearly written all over his face but the thing that scared them the most including the two new comers was his voice.
"Uchiha Itachi, the man I fought to slow down his killing of the uchiha's and the one I will Kill!!" slowly the temperature in the room returned to normal and the water around him slowly vanished once more. Getting a nod of approval from sarutobi and kakashi, but in there minds that could clearly see naruto was far from getting over that fight, To this day kakashi and the anbu let alone sarutobi had now idea how naruto had managed to fight itachi to such a weakened state while still keeping himself alive, he saved several uchiha's that day, but it was not to be as itachi return several days later to finish the job the only two to survive were, uchiha mikoto who is in a coma even now and uchiha sasuke who doesn't even know his mother is alive and breathing.
"So let me get this straight I'm working with a Anbu liaison in a two man cell with an Yugao-chan who I know is neko-chan of anbu but the problem is I am a G E N I N! I am not an anbu so how... wait what did you say...." stated the now clearly shocked naruto, chuckling slightly sarutobi watched as more colour washed from naruto's face.
"naruto my boy I said she was the second liaison anbu in 5 years guess who is the first one?" said the now completely laughing sarutobi as he watched naruto put the holes and hints together. After finally completing the gaps everyone in the room had to hold off laughing as naruto looked like a gasping fish.
"y-y-y-y-you mean I am the first one?" stated naruto trying to comprehend what was just said.
"Yes, my boy, but don't think you will be constant anbu mission's, yes you will be doing one or two every month with Uzuki and your team mate, but you will be doing mainly genin missions with your four man team along with your two sensei's does this clear your questions for you naruto ?" asked sarutobi before motioning the two people to yet introduce themselves to naruto to come forward.
"Now naruto I want you to meet, Neko and Hawk, also naruto what mask was it you wanted again im pretty sure you said ..."before sarutobi could finished naruto finished it for him
"Wolf jiji my mask is to be a wolf and make sure its black with red lines so it looks similar to Kyuubi my wolf companion" stated naruto before turning his gaze to neko and hawk.
"Ok Wolf and Hawk meet me at the top of the hokage monument in 10 minutes for introductions and then we will disband for the day and meet at ground 7 tomorrow at 8 sharp understood ?" stated neko getting a nod form both naruto and hawk.
"Naruto here take the mask with you and this is your anbu uniform you will need to get the branding down tomorrow after your test and training, I am expecting good things from you, Oh and before I forget ill be down near the ramen place you love so much in 20 minutes and sure you two would want to join as well yes?" asked sarutobi getting a nod from both hawk and neko before neko, hawk and Wolf left using shunsin jutsu.
On the Hokage monument the three slowly sat down with neko in front of them.
"Ok seen as I am the leader off the cell and also your sensei, ill start the introduction first, My names Uzuki Yugao, you may all call me Neko when in anbu HQ or on anbu missions or Yugao when we are alone, my likes are Dango and reading, I dislike perverts and people who ruin the kounichi name, my hobbies are training and relaxing at on-sen, my areas of expertise are Kenjutsu and Taijutsu, I Focus and Speed and Precision" Yugao then removed her mask so the two could see her face before pointing to hawk to start.
Getting a nod Hawk began " My names Inuzuka Mai, I am Hawk member on this team, when on missions I am Hawk or when on the genin team I am Mai, I like many things mainly the inuzuka nin-dogs and relaxing, my dislikes are perverts, my hobbies are Reading and training, my dream is have a family and become a good kounichi, my area of strengths are Genjutsu and Taijutsu" after finishing her introduction she removed her mask apart from wearing the standard anbu armour same as Yugao what caught naruto's attention most was one eye was a dark orange and the other was a light blue and she had long black hair tide into a pony tail at the back with strands at the sides and front, to naruto she looked beautiful. Upon seen them look at naruto questionably he realised they were waiting on him to start his introduction luckily for him he had his wolf mask on to hide his face.
"Ok as you all know, my name is Uzumaki Naruto, On a mission I am Wolf or on the genin team I am Naruto, I like many things one of them been Ramen, I dislike fan girl's and people who can't see underneath the underneath, my hobbies are pulling pranks and training, my dream and goal in life is to become the Rokudaime hokage. My strengths are Ninjutsu and Kenjutsu, I Focus on Speed and Strength. Now seen as you already know my face, let me ask you what affinities are you both?" said naruto while he removed his wolf mask
"I am Fire and Lightning" stated Mai, before naruto turned to Yugao
"I am Earth and Fire" replied Yugao now all eyes fell on naruto once again
"As I am sure you have heard from sandaime-jiji I use Water and wind, my water affinity is as strong as nidaime-sama's and I am told my wind is not far behind yondaime-sama's, So with in our team we cover all 5 elements I am not sure how this worked out as this but I sure as hell wont complain." stated the naruto before standing up.
"Ok lets go meet sandiame-jiji for ramen and then I will be leaving for today" then as fast as naruto had said he was gone.
Sarutobi had just arrived when naruto and the two others appeared next to him, Seen this as a time to talk to naruto away from business.
"Naruto glad you could make it, come sit down and lets talk shall we, you two can join us too" said sarutobi as he ordered his miso ramen.
"Ayame-chan, one miso ramen for me please, Jiji hows things, paperwork still doing your head in?" naruto then turned his head a bit and watched the other two sit.
"Im fine naruto though the paperwork is as always a pain, just wish I knew minato's secret for doing the blasted things.." stated sarutobi while accepting his ramen.
"Ever thought of trying kage bushin on it you can do two times the paperwork then. Thanks Ayame-chan" replied naruto while accepting his ramen.
"Can I order a Beef Ramen" asked Mai finally deciding on which to have, Ayame noded before looking at Yugao who just asked for miso ramen.
"Ok it will be done in a second and naruto your welcome" stated ayame as she returned to the kitchen area.
"Kage Bunshin, Wait why didn't I think of this......" stated sarutobi before he pulled out a piece of paper that had head but here, putting it down on the counter, sarutobi then proceeded to smash his head against it in an effort to remind him.
"Yugao-chan, I was wondering if you could help me improve my Kenjutsu, And also tomorrow we will be doing a test wont we, I remember hearing about a genin test done by there jonin-sensei's normally its the famous bell test which requires teamwork as a key element to pass, but there are other tests." answered naruto in his moment of wisdom.
"Wow, I didn't think you would know about the test's but yes the test will be tomorrow at training ground 7 and its going to be the bell test but just cause you two know doesn't mean you are to tell the other two, let them learn it themselves, as for the question on me teaching you more on kenjutsu, I can do that for you when we have our training sessions." replied yugao before continuing to eat her ramen,
"Jiji, just wondering is there any new apartments yet just kyuubi, my companion wolf its getting grumpy as she can't go running around as there is no fields or garden" asked naruto while finishing another bowl of ramen, well more like inhaling it.
"Well there is one place I can let you use but you must not be seen entering it, I am sure Yugao knows the place and can take you there, I need to return to my office now to finish the paper work once that's done meet me there tomorrow at 3 after your test and ill open the house for you to use" stated sarutobi before paying for there meals and leaving.
~Training ground 7 Next day~
naruto was walking into the grounds when he saw Yugao, mai , sasuke and sakura waiting on him and kakashi, slowly walking up naruto heard sasuke talking about him so he hid behind a tree near them.
"So let me get this straight you met the dope yesterday. Why wasn't I an Uchiha informed of this" asked sasuke letting his ego get the better of him, but to naruto this showed the true ego and self of sasuke which naruto never saw.
"Well as I stated a minute ago I am another sensei, I've known naruto only since yesterday when I met him near ichiraku's ramen place and I sat there talking to him about things, as for my friend here I am sure when naruto gets here he will introduce us better." stated Yugao obviously getting angry at sasukes arrogance, deciding to save yugao and mai from more of sasukes ego, naruto came forward and smashed sasuke over the head.
"You know teme, its now nice to treat a lady which is older strong and much better at the ninja job than you with such arrogance, didn't your clan teach you anything baka" stated the now pissed naruto, killing intent floored on sasuke along with water forming over naruto in senbon shapes.
"Hmph, I can treat them as I like dope, of course a no name fool like you would never understand me" stated sasuke showering naruto with his killing intent, but to naruto the things he just said had been the final straw , as he eyes started to flash red and his whisker marks became darker , his sun-kissed yellow hair grew more wilder and his eyes also took to a more feral form before the killing intent raised miles higher that was till kakashi appear.
"ENOUGH!" shouted an enraged kakashi, looking at the anger and hatred shown in naruto's eyes could only mean one thing, sasuke had said the wrong thing at the wrong time.
"Naruto calm yourself right now, sasuke you better pray to god naruto calms down if he doesn't ill be sure take you to the hokage myself is that clear, now if we can get back to this meeting and test before I end up putting one of you in hospital please." stated kakashi, he watched as naruto's eyes changed back to less feral and blue again his whisker marks lightened, while his hair stayed the same, standing back his straight he walked over to a tree behind yugao but infront of sasuke before shattering it with one paunch from his fist, turning back to sasuke, his eyes held pure rage and hatred in them.
" To trample on me is fine, but those that treat my friends and family name as trash will DIE, count yourself lucky uchiha, if kakashi didn't save you, well lets say not even the hokage would be able to save you from my rage."turning back to kakashi his eyes lightened slight more before smiling at him.
"Nice save kakashi-sensei, but I only ask if the bastard doe's that again you deal with him before he insults my friends or family as I may not let him live next time." then as if by some idiotic meaning sasuke decided he would not be treated like this.
"I am an Elite UCHIHA , I do not need to mind my speech in front of trash dope and never will, and You beating me as if dope" spoke sasuke, the worst thing he could of said at that time, seeing this yugao decided to grab naruto and mai and shinsun to the hokage office to let him talk to naruto.
"Sasuke , With me NOW!" shouted kakashi marching sasuke and sakura to the hokage.
~Hokage Office : Whole group present~
Sarutobi was not having a good day, the paperwork was killing him as normal but he was interrupted from his paper work by yugao with an engaged naruto under her arms and mai trying her hardest to calm his rage, minutes later had seen kakashi fuming with anger at an also equally angry sasuke and sakura panicking behind them.
"Ok what's going on, Kakashi would you and Yugao explain to me whats been going on" asked sarutobi, getting a nod from kakashi and Yugao they began to explain the events of what transpired between the group and how sasuke's arrogance had almost cause naruto to kill him.
Well to say Sarutobi was pissed was beyond his current mood, he was eyeing sasuke with enough killing intent to kill the poor uchiha in his seat.
"ARE YOU SUCH A FOOL BOY, JUST CAUSE YOUR OF THE UCHIHA CLAN DOES NOT MEAN YOU CAN ORDER NINJA'S AROUND, ALSO HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT NARUTO'S FAMILY, I'LL HAVE YOU KNOW WHO HIS PARENTS WERE JUST TO SHUT YOU UP, YOU IDIOTIC BAFFOON" well to say kakashi was scared was an understatement never had he seen sarutobi this pissed unless they mentioned orochimaru, what ever family naruto had must have been famous if sarutobi was getting this angry.
"I promised the boy's parents I would not tell him this till he was at least at the age of 16 or jonin, but it seems I must shut an arrogant uchiha from causing his own death, Naruto's parents were none other then the Fourth Hokage, Namekaze Minato, also known as Konoha Kiroi no Senko, and his mother was the anbu captain Uzumaki Kushina, now You stupid boy I dare you to say that to him now, cause if you dare to disrespect any hokage in my presence ill have you arrest for treason is that understood uchiha" stated sarutobi leaving no room for the people present to comprehend what was said let alone naruto, who looked like a gasping fish.
Several minutes went by as the entire team look at poor naruto gasping, before they all saw it coming from his face naruto let out a mighty yell.
"YOU WHAT!!!" he then turned to look at sasuke and then to each of the others looking for some confirmation of what he heard.
"Its true now that I think of it, I mean who else had such unruly yellow hair and crystal blue eyes like that." stated kakashi, before getting a nod from sarutobi.
"Now that you all know this, I am making this a double-SS rank secret it does not leave this room is that understood if it did naruto would have to deal with all his parents enemies and that was something his father nor I wish for." stated sarutobi before asking all to leave except for naruto who was asked to wait outside and for yugao and mai to wait inside to talk with sarutobi.
"Right seen as the fool is gone, I want both of you to take naruto to his new home, it was his parent's home, you are to look after him today make sure he doesn't do anything stupid he will need it, I never planned to tell him this till he was 16, so please watch over him, I know its asking a lot but I don't trust his mental state, it must be a major shock to find out about both of his parents and at same time be told his dad was the one who sealed the kyuubi inside him" spoke sarutobi getting a nod from mai and yugao.
"If I may speak hokage-sama, perhaps I should live with him to watch over him for awhile I mean, I certainly wouldn't like to be alone after what he was just told" answer mai, after carefully thinking it through sarutobi gave the ok to mai and yugao living there on one condition.
Naruto was waiting outside the office tears flowing down his cheeks, his parents or rather his father was the person he idolised the most and to be told it was him that sealed miko in side of him was a major blow, but inside of naruto's mind miko was trying to sooth naruto's sadness the best that she could, The door the sarutobi's office opened and the three of them walked out to meet face to face with naruto tears still flowing out from his eyes freely but behind his eyes a hint of happiness could be seen glowing just faintly.
"Sarutobi-jiji, was what you said true, did my father really seal miko-hime inside of me?..."naruto stopped mid sentence, his mind racing thoughts and emotions swirling throughout his face and body trying to find just a little more comfort from this knowledge but a lass naruto found nothing only happiness from knowing his parents and slight anger to his father for sealing miko inside of him and regret that his own father never got a chance to be with him to save the same village that hates his son for what he holds.
"Ironic ain't it jiji, Father sacrificed his live for this pathetic village only to see his own son treated like the plague for what I hold within me, hypocrites the lot of them." state naruto before standing up his eyes finally returning to there normalish state of no emotions looking at sarutobi's eyes he could see the pain shown in his aged face.
"Don't worry jiji, I ain't going to attack konoha. I know why people hate me, its cause they are scared of what they don't understand but ill show them the diffrence between the kyuubi and me by protecting this village. After all I am taking that hat from you soon Jiji" smiling naruto turns and starts to walk off before sarutobi calls out to him.
"Naruto!, were you going you don't even know where your new house is yet, yugao and mai are going to lead you there also you will have to sort out two of the extra bedrooms for them as they are going to be living there, its to help keep your teamwork and other security issues, of which im sure you know off" smiling sarutobi handed the key's to yugao and the three of them left.
Sarutobi watched the fleeting backs of naruto and his anbu team mates as they left his view turning around, he motioned for one of his hidden anbu to come forth.
"Go Summon Kakashi, Tsume & Hana Inuzuka, and finally Jiraya, Tell them to meet me at the hokage monument in 30 minutes for a important meeting about Uzumaki Naruto, Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura, Uzuki Yugao, and Inuzuka Mai, Tell them they cannot and will not skip this meeting. Now Go!" and with that the anbu left to summon the people required.
