A/N: No, his ability is in no way related to Rogue's from X-men, though it's obvious a lot of you see it, it was not intended, second, to those few who asked, I have not DECIDED on pairings, that does not mean there won't be any. Also, someone asked about what happened to his skin, unless he's at home which is underground with flourescent lights, he's covered from head to toe, this is why he is so pale.

Here are the possibilities for this.

NaruTen

NaruShiz (big maybe on this)

NaruHarem )leaning towards this as I post this chapter)

NaruAnk (big maybe on this)

NaruHana

I already have a plan for a NaruIno (Drunken Sex ending up with Ino pregnant.)

NaruSaku Betrayed: In progress.

NaruHina Beast Brat of Konoha: In progress.

Plans for NaruTem (Special jutsu that takes advantage of person's chakra affinity)

There is no voting, though I may have missed a pairing, if so, please speak out, thank you.

Oh, no NaruHanabi

My main point is I wish to stay close to his age range. Hence why Shizune and Anko are big maybes, and quite frankly I simply don't want him paired up with Kurenai, want to plan something special for her.

Naruto jumped from rooftop to rooftop as he made his way to the flower shop, one he was familiar with from one of his many trips past it.

After all, it was on his way to school.

He dropped off the roofs about a block away from the shop and made his way towards his target.

Ino looked up as the bell above the door rang. "Welcome to the Yamanaka flower shop, can I help you with anything?"

Her eyes then fell on the one who'd opened the door and she stiffened up.

Her eyes narrowed. "Naruto, what are you doing here?"

His eyes fell to the ground as he heard the hostile tone she had barely tried to conceal. He handed her the slip he'd gotten from Iruka.

Ino looked down at it. "One bouquet for Iruka. Prepaid. Stay right here Naruto. And don't touch anything."

She slowly went into the back and searched among the shelves. Coming out she saw that Naruto was walking among the flowers, his fingers tenderly caressing them. Ino did a double take as she realized what she was seeing. He's not wearing his gloves, oh god, look how pale his hand is, doesn't he ever take those off.

Naruto looked up and saw her staring at him, he quickly pulled his glove back on, and headed towards Ino holding out his hand for the bouquet.

Ino unthinking, slowly put it in his hand, sliding her own fingers across his gloved hand. He jerked away taking the bouquet with him, before Ino could register the movement he was out the door and on his way back to the academy.

Ino looked at the door. He touched those flowers so delicately. "Naruto, who are you?"

XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX

Naruto was at the window knocking when Iruka looked up. In his hand was held the flowers.

Iruka opened the window and grabbed the flowers. "Thanks Naruto, here." He threw an envelope with some money at his blonde student who deftly grabbed it. He opened it and saw the money before nodding at Iruka. He pressed his finger to one of the symbols engraved on the metal of his glove. A small poof of smoke later and a small frog-shaped wallet sat in his hand as he carefully put the money in it. Seconds later it was once again sealed into the unknown space where storage seals put things.

Naruto looked around the room. "So, who's the date?"

Iruka quirked an eyebrow at him. "You're, actually interested?"

The young man nodded.

Iruka scratched his face. "I doubt you know her, special Jounin by the name of Anko Mitarashi."

Iruka managed to make out a surprised expression through the cloth on Naruto's face. "That freak?"

The teacher looked at him. "What do you mean?"

Naruto looked away. "I've heard, stories, while out and about. Be careful."

Naruto went and took his seat when the students started walking in.

"Naruto, what do you mean, Naruto? Come on, answer me?" Iruka looked extremely worried.

Iruka looked over the class, looking at the young minds he'd taught.

"Starting today, you're Genin."

"You represent yourselves, and this village."

"But you're also young, and the young get put in teams. So listen up, I will now announce your groups."

He started reading off the list until he reached team seven. "Team seven will be Sasuke Uchiha, Chouji Akimichi, and Shikamaru Nara. Team eight is Ino Yamanaka, Naruto Uzumaki, and Kiba Inuzuka. Team ten will be, Shino Aburame, Sakura Haruno, and Hinata Hyuuga."

Iruka looked over the class. he noticed that two girls seemed to be very disappointed while looking over at Sasuke, and that Sasuke himself was showing a small smile far different from his usual smirk, as though he found some small amount of joy that no fangirls had ended up in his group.

"Now, your Jonin Instructors should be here shortly after lunch. So why don't you spend that time getting to know your new teammates. Have a good day." Iruka walked out of the classroom.

The class started to shuffle out of the room minus the three members of team eight. Kiba and Ino looked at each other then at their teammate. Both looked slightly upset.

Naruto blinked. "Don't bother trying to hide it."

Both reared back freaked out by the sudden words.

Ino studied him. She could see that through the clothes he had a decent body. But beyond that, she couldn't make out anything, her eyes traveled up him until she found herself looking into his eyes.

Those, so blue, I've never seen eyes so blue.

Kiba looked at him. All he saw was Naruto, the kid who sent the Hokage to the hospital. It was no wonder he was freaked out.

"I know you're scared, they all are."

He got up, opened the window, jumped to a tree, and took off.

Ino stared after him. Why did he sound so sad when he said that?

She looked over at Kiba, and Kiba looked at her, his eyes focused just a little below her face.

"Keep staring at my chest and I'll neuter you dog boy."

Kiba's eyes quickly met her face as Iruka poked his head back in. "Is he gone?"

Both Ino and Kiba looked at their teacher.

Kiba was the one who answered. "Yeah, he is. Why would you even allow him to graduate? He's too dangerous. He attacked the Hokage and nearly killed him for crying out loud."

Iruka looked at him. "Kiba, you should never jump to conclusions. The Hokage, gave me special permission to reveal what happened."

"Naruto, is, a special case. He, doesn't trust people very much. And considering what happened, it's not surprising. You see, back, right before Lord Hokage was hospitalized, Naruto was kidnapped, by a villager no less, and tortured. The man, had been skinning him alive, Naruto's lucky to be alive."

Kiba and Ino looked slightly ill at the thought.

"During that time, he, developed an ability, it's still not certain, but, many believe that it's a bloodline trait. Anybody who touches his skin, gets, feedback, the complete and overwhelming experience of what his life has been up to this point in his life. And, to date, he has survived no less than four hundred and twelve seperate attempts on his life by various civilians and shinobi of this village. And that's, just what we know of. Given the number of accidents he's been in, more than likely, a good portion of those have been attempts on his life too."

Ino stared at him in shock. "But why? Why would you do that to a child?"

Iruka went to his desk and sat down. "I really can't tell you, some of them, were because of an S-Class secret that I'm not allowed to tell you, a good portion of the others were purely because of the Hokage incident. Naruto, needs friends, and I can't force you to be them, but, I hope, you can understand him.

Iruka left the room leaving the two students to their thoughts.
