One Year Later

Its been a year since the incident and now Naruto Hoseki is the true Jinchuriki of Kuruma. Dring the past year, Naruto's former family started wanting to get him back, although they haven't been really lucky since he would completely avoid them. The three children have also become really high in ANBU, even ranking as S-rank in the bingo book and having the respect of many of the ANBU there. Today, however was a special day, because Kuruma was going to give them each a gift.

"So Kura, whatchya gonna give us?" Naruto asked excitedly.

"Calm down Ruto, its obviously going to be something great." Hinata said.

"She's right. Anyways, I have these three different fruits for the three of you." he said as he took out three fruits from the sac he was carrying.

"Okaaay...is this suppose to be some kind of snack?" Sasuke said as they looked at it strangely.

"No, this is called a devil fruit. These fruits give you certain powers that are not known until its eaten. The ones I have, however, are fire, lightening and water."

"So we can control them at will?" Hinata asked.

"Not exactly. You don't control the elements, you BECOME the element." hee grinned at their star eyed expression.

"That is AWSOME!" Naruto yelled and did a funny dance.

"Wait, is there a drawback? A weakness to this type of power?" Sasuke asked.

"Smart kit. Yes, normally, you won't be able to swim. But I could remove that curse."

"Thanks a lot Kyuu! Your the best!" Naruto said as he hugged the human form of Kuruma.

"Now pick which one you guys want."

"Well, I'm taking the Fire fruit. Its sorta the Uchiha main element."

"I'm taking the water fruit, since its my main affinity." Hinata said

"Guess I'm stuck with lightening. Not bad really." Naruto shrugged and they took a bit out of the fruit. Instantly, their faces turned green.

"Eww! Kyuu these things taste disgusting!" Sasuke exclaimed. But the said fox was rolling around laughing at their expression.

"You...knew!?" Hinata yelled.

"Hey, I just wanted to see your expressions. Gotta say, it was hilarious!" he said, wiping away a tear.

"Ha ha very funny." Naruto said. But they quickly ate the fruit, even though it tasted horrible.

"Now time to remove the curse." he tapped his finger on their foreheads and then it was gone. They each started to test it out, and were amazed at what they saw.

"This is beyond awesome isn't it?" Naruto said as the others nodded in agreement.

"Now then there are certain things that you have to know about these fruits. First their called logia types. Since you actually become the element, this will happen." before they could ask, he threw a kunai and said not to move, towards Sasuke, and surprisingly, it went through him.

"Whoa!" they said

"Yup, everything that is thrown at you goes right through you. The only time it will make contact with you, is if you want to, but I don't think any of you want to get hurt deliberately" they shook their head, "or if you use haki."

"What's haki?" Hinata asked. And so the entire time was used in explain what haki was and getting a grasp at their powers, to the point they wont accidently burn, shock or wet anything and then they went home, or in Naruto's case, an apartment under his ANBU name.

Four Years Later

It was finally graduation day. The graduation age was delayed two years, so everyone was at least fourteen when graduating.

"Hey there Naru." Sasuke jogged up to his boyfriend. Naruto turned around and was met with a kiss full on the lips, which he returned.

"Hey Sasuke." he smiled. Their relationship had grown beautifully over the years, and those who knew about it, support them fully.

"So, how do you feel like graduating...again." they both laughed. It was hilarious. They are feared and respected ANBU, and yet here they are graduating to become genin. They kept walking to the academy,unaware of the eyes looking straight at Naruto with want and lust.

When they reached the academy, they were met with Hinata who had just arrived. Spotting them, she ran over to them and gave them a hug.

"You guys ready on graduating...again?" they all laughed.

"Thats the same thing I asked." Sasuke exclaimed.

"So you guys hand in your resignation forms?" Naruto asked as they made their way to the academy.

"Yeah. Its a shame really. Itachi kept laughing all this morning though about the graduation. My parents almost thought he went mad, since they didnt know why he was laughing."

"Yea well an Itachi showing emotion is just plain werid to others." Hinata said.

They entered the class and saw that everyone was already there. They sat in the closes seats they could find and right after, Iruka came inside. After him came the Namikaze triplets. They all looked at Naruto but like usual he ignored them. Hinata,however, kept noticing something in Menma's eyes and she wasnt the only. Kuruma also said that he saw. It was hunger and want. Like he had a thing for Naruto. At first they wanted to ignore it, but the lust he gained in his eyes and hatred for Sasuke was a clear thing in their minds, but both boys didn't know, and didn't need to know.

"Alright everyone, its time for the taijutsu part of the exam." Iruka said as they headed to the field at back, after completing the written part. They headed outside to take the exam. After the over all exams, the three ex-ANBU were genin...again!

"Yatta! We passed!" Naruto exclaimed

"Of course we did babe." Sasuke said

"We'd be the laughing stock of all ANBU if we failed." Hinata added as they left the academy grounds. Naruto's formal family were standing there, seemingly waiting for him, but the fourteen year old completely ignored them. They tried to approach them, but were stopped by someone yelling something

"There are my three favourite kids! Hey guys, how's the exams!?" Anko said as she walked up to them.

"I don't really think that's a question, now is it Anko." Itachi said, walking besides her.

"Shut it emo! No ones talking to you." she yelled

"Ma ma, there's no need to fight you two." Kakashi said, reading his book. The three kids just sweatdropped as they made too much noise, bringing attention to themselves.

"What are you guys doing here nii-san?" Sasuke said.

"Well otouto, we came to celebrate your graduating." Itachi smiled.

"Is that really necessary?" Hinata deadpanned.

"Yup! Especially since Kakashi is paying!" Anko exclaimed. She and Hinata had bonded over the years, and it was sad to say that Hinata adopted Anko's sadistic nature.

"Yea! Kakashi is paying!" Naruto jumped as he and Anko dragged the others to the BBQ.

"Wait! I didn't agree to this!" yelled a dragging and paled Kakashi. He was going to be broke, he always was when they ate outside.

"Well, you are the oldest." Sasuke grinned. They just loved making fun of Kakashi. It was so much fun!

"Don't worry Kakashi. They won't eat that much." Itachi tried to reassure him, but it didn't work. So was the tale of Kakashi going bankrupt.

Next day-Hokage Tower

All the jounin were there to get their team placements. Minato wanted to put ALL his children on the same team and make Kushina the jounin sensei, so they could bond better with their son/brother, but Kakashi beat him to it.

"Hokage-same, I would like to have a team consisting of Hinata Hyuuga, Sasuke Uchiha and Naruto Hoseki." he said confidently.

"Why would you want to have those three in particular?" Minato asked, not really wanting his son on that team.

"Well Hokage-sama, from what I have observed, Naruto has little trust in anyone, except Hinata and Sasuke, and I believe putting him on a team with people he doesn't care for or trust will be its downfall." Kakashi said. He knew Minato what Minato was trying to do and there was no way in hell he was going to let his otouto be in their clutches. Besides, having three ex-ANBU would make things a lot easier.

"Very well. If that all, then jounin senseis go get your students. they will be waiting for you in the academy."

Academy

"I hope were on the same team." Hinata said excitedly.

"If anything, Kakashi-nii would try to do that."

"We all know what the Yondaime would want, and that for you to be on the same team as his children." Sasuke said.

"I bet he would make his wife the sensei." Hinata snorted and they all laughed. Iruka came in and he smiled at the three. He knew about their ANBU status and they were quite close to him. Maybe because he was with Kakashi,but they did see him as a close friend.

"Alright then its time for team placements...team 7 Sasuke Uchiha,Hinata Hyuuga and Naruto Hoseki your jounin sensei, Kakashi Hatake...team 11 Menma, Naruko Uzumaki-Namikaze and Sakura Haruno, your jounin sensei,Kushina Uzumaki-Namikaze. Now wait for your senseis to come pick you up." he then left the room.

"All right! Kakashi came through!" Naruto said, kissing his boyfriend and hugging Hinata,who he saw as a sister.

"It sorta makes a small part of me feel bad for what we did to him yesterday." Hinata said and then smiled sweetly, "but I could always have that part removed." The boys just sweatdropped. One by one the teachers came. Kushina and Kakashi came at the same time. Kushina smiled sadly at her son,Naruto. She was beyond anger that Minato didnt put him on her team. All her three children should have been on the same team but hearing Kakashi's reasoning.

"Team 7 with me to the roof." Kakashi said and shushined away.

"Team 11 with me." Kushina said and they followed. Naruko and Menma looked back to see team 7 but they were already gone. Naruko tried to get closer with her brother, but its like she couldnt find him for the past five years. Sure they had the same class, but she could never get to him because of her fanboys. Menma was getting a bit unstable, however he didn't show it. He knew his brother and Sasuke were together and every time he did he would get dark thoughts of killing Sasuke, but right now he had to wait and watch.

'Dont worry Naru-chan, you'll be mine soon.' he thought darkly at all the ways he was gonna get him. Which was one of the reasons why he started to study sealing a lot more seriously. His plan would soon be perfected.

On the roof, team 7 sat there with Kakashi. They just stared at one another and began to laugh.

"Man, we keep laughing all day." Naruto said.

"This entire thing is hilarious. Every ANBU just looks and then laughs." Kakashi said. Over the years, the people in ANBU learned of their identities and of course kept it a secret. Everyone would wonder, however, how the hell did the Hokage not recognize his own son. But after the birthday party five years ago, they understood.

"Well, we all know one another and we would certainly pumpel you to the ground, so I guess we pass." Sasuke said as he sat down on the ground, the others followed, though Naruto found it more comfortable on his lap.

"So sensei, do you mind telling us the real reason to why you came early?" Hinata asked, causing Kakashi to blush.

"He was here for Iruka of course!" Naruto laughed.

"Leave me alone you guys. Anyways, we'll start D-rank missions tomorrow at 9, so see ya!" Kakashi said and shushined out.

"So, you guys manage to master the three types of haki yet?" Hinata said, as they walked to BBQ.

"Yup, perfected it alright." Sasuke said.

"I managed to reduce my reaction time for my lighting speed." Naruto said.

"Oh? That's great. You Sasuke?"

"Hmm, well my haki is alright. My mom seems a bit suspicious, but my dad wants to help me train now. Pfft, I could kick his sorry ass a mile away. What about you"

"Well, like your fire gun and Naruto's lightening gun, I made a water gun, but the name seems so unoriginal, so I changed it to water bullet. Used it on an elder last night during dinner. Uncle Hizashi just walked out and started laughing later on and you could tell dad wanted to do the same as well."

"Damn they're annoying!" Naruto said.

They ate and talked some more and then went their separate ways. Tomorrow they were going to be doing D-ranks, but luckily they had their secret weapon in doing those annoying jobs.

Hokage Tower

All jounin senseis were there, and even Kakashi was early, surprising a lot of them, even the Hokage. He looked at all of them and they gave their report.

"Team 1-6 failed, what about team 7?" Minato asked.

"Team 7 passed Hokage-sama." Kakashi answered not looking up from him book. This caused Minato to frown. He noticed that Kakashi had been distancing himself from him and not calling him sensei like usual, but he shrugged it off. He was somewhat surprised that the team his son on had passed. He, like the rest of his family, had been trying to get closer to his eldest so, but it was like he was hardly in the village at times. Heck the only time he ever saw Naruto was when he would some times check the academy classroom though the crystal ball. From what he saw in Naruto's files, he was an average student, not too low in the class and not too high.

"Team 8 passed"

"Team 10 passed"

"Team 11 passed"

"Good, you are all dismissed. Ka-" he never got to finish, because the said man, Kakashi, shushined away. He sighed. Kakashi would always leave, not wanting to be a second in his presence. The jounins left and Kushina stayed behind.

"What are we going to do Minato?" she said worriedly.

"Don't worry. It'll work out soon. I know we will." Minato tries to cheer her up.

"You've been saying that for the past five years! I don't think we will. We lost him and its all our faults!" Kushina wailed. He had nothing to say and just tried to comfort her.

'We'll be a family soon son, I'll make sure of it.' Minato though.
