Naruto and Sasuke were walking through the village at a leisurely pace, today was their first day off in three weeks so the two decided to go hang out for a while.
Sasuke had his hands in his white shorts and his back straight with an almost bored look on his face, whilst Naruto stood tall and proud but with a bored look on his face.
Many girls gave Sasuke a lustful look with small hearts in their eyes as he walked past, then as quickly as the look came it changed to a glare as they saw him with Naruto.
As they were walking past a flower shop, Ino poked her head out to watch them curiously. "Sasuke, Naruto! Wait up!" She yelled, but was ignored.
"Should we run?" Sasuke asked, his eyes studying the blond who was currently taking off her apron and shouting to her parents.
"Nah, if she starts to annoy us... I'll kill her." Naruto said non chalantly, as he continued his casual stroll. Sasuke stopped and looked at his back with no emotion on his face, before shrugging and catching up.
Ino caught up a within seconds later and gave them a big grin. "What you up to, guys? I saw Kiba earlier, he was bragging about his team being so strong. You want to go beat them up a little?"
"You know, I think that's the best idea that's ever came out of your annoying mouth." Naruto commented casually.
Ino frowned and pointed at him. "Like you could do better, Dead Last!"
"Did you say something? I don't tend to listen to you much..." Naruto said coolly, as he began to walk a bit faster.
A tick mark appeared on Ino's forehead as she watched Sasuke snicker and Naruto keep walking. She didn't speak as they made their way to the training fields where Team Eight usually trained.
"Well, well, if it isn't Sasu-gay, Dead Last and Bimbo. What are you guys doing here?" Kiba jeered, grinning a little as Team Seven got closer.
"What's that smell?" Naruto commented dryly, holding his nose at the stench. Team Seven and Eight had confused looks on their faces as they tried to smell the air.
"What? I don't smell anything." Ino said in her confusion.
"I'm surprised, the smell of wet dog is everywhere... sorry, that's Kiba's body odour. "That's my mistake." Naruto said, with a cocky grin on his face.
Sasuke and Ino burst out laughing, whilst Shino looked like a statue and Hinata tapped her fingers together.
Kiba snarled at Naruto and rushed him but Naruto easily side stepped the attack and after turning around so that he faced Kiba's back, he placed his left foot on the bottom of the other pre-teens back and pushed the boy to the ground.
"Weak." Naruto commented in a monotone voice. As he was about to make hand signs, the Jonin sensei of Team Eight grabbed them and distorted the chakra coils in Naruto's hands, making him unable to use jutsu for a few minutes.
"There'll be no fighting in my presence." Kurenai stated, glaring menacingly at Naruto.
Naruto noticed it, it was the same look the villagers and most ninja gave him and it pissed him off. Naruto ripped his hands from her grasp and turned his back to her.
"Bullying your team was just a bit of fun, your all weak anyway... probably wouldn't last one round against us." Naruto said, goading their sensei into a fight.
"You want to test that, Dead Last!?" Kiba snarled at the retreating blond. Naruto stopped and turned his head slightly, so that he could see all the members of Team Eight.
"I would, but your sensei is too much of a coward to fight. We'll leave with just a warning..." Naruto cleared his throat mockingly and narrowed his eyes to slits. "When the time comes, I'll destroy you."
Naruto released his killer intent, which froze Team Eight, but Kurenai brushed it off easily and just glared. Naruto and his team mates were gone in a matter of moments.
"Why didn't you let us fight them, Kurenai-sensei!?" Kiba yelled at her, "We could have taken them easily!"
"No you couldn't Kiba!" Kurenai snapped back, "They're way out of your league, just train and try to become stronger. I think it's time I taught you some Chuunin level Gen and Nin jutsu..."
"That was pretty harsh, Naruto." Ino scolded, but she didn't yell like always. Naruto ignored her and kept walking.
"When the time comes, if you still annoy me then..." Naruto paused.
"Then what, tough guy?" Ino challenged.
Naruto narrowed his eyes. "Then I'll kill all of those you hold dear before finishing you of."
Ino stared in shock-horror as the boy blended in with the crowd. Sasuke said nothing and walked in another direction, with Ino catching up a few moments later.
Naruto sat by a river in a secluded part of Konoha, there was a small waterfall falling into a small lake nearby.
'I think it's time to meet the fox. I need him to teach me otherwise my goal will be nothing but a dream.' Naruto thought to himself.
Naruto stood and placed his hands in the ram seal whilst closing his eyes. He focused his chakra on the seal and felt a slight tug in his mind.
When he re-opened his eyes, he stood in a dark, dank sewer. Naruto could feel a great but terrifying power pull on him and he began to walk where he could feel the evil 'essence.'
He walked into a large chamber with tall iron gates and a piece of paper with 'Seal' written on it, which was what, stopped the Kyuubi from escaping his body.
Torches were erected on his left and right that made a sort of walkway towards the cage. When Naruto approached, a giant red claw tried to snatch him unexpectedly.
"What the..." Naruto began, but the claw stopped mere inches from his face as the seal brightened and turned a sickening blood red colour.
A deep, hate filled laughter bounced off the walls as two giant crimson eyes peered at Naruto from the other side of the cage.
Naruto's eyes widened as the Kyuubi's body was then revealed, he could honestly say he was gob smacked, for lack of a better term.
"The twerp has finally come to visit me." Kyuubi stated with a fox like grin on his face. Naruto moved closer and closer as Kyuubi pulled his chakra claw back.
"I don't fear you." Naruto commented, defiantly. Kyuubi laughed again and shook his head; Naruto stood ten feet away from the cage and stared into the fox's eyes.
"You're brave, much like your Yondaime." Kyuubi said, his grin only widening at the look of hatred on his jailors face.
"That man..." Naruto clenched his fist tight, "Never mention him to me again!"
"I can see the hatred that breeds in your heart, and into your very soul." Kyuubi stated. Whether he was trying to scare Naruto or not was unclear to the boy, but he wouldn't back down.
"What would you know?" Naruto asked.
"I'm the smartest, and the strongest of the tailed demons... it's my place to know everything about you because one day, child, I'll escape your rotten, weak body." Kyuubi told him.
"If you're so smart, why am I on this side of those gates? At least I didn't let an idiot like Namikaze Minato sealed me inside a baby, of all things..." Naruto said with an arrogant smirk.
Kyuubi laughed. "You're different from the others, but different means nothing in my book. Now let's quit this mindless talking so I can refuse you and we can go our separate ways."
"So you can see what I'm thinking, huh? And what do you mean separate ways? You've got nowhere to go, you'll die with me." Naruto said smugly.
"You're annoying me, brat, just leave... I'll teach you nothing." Kyuubi growled, and turned his back on the child in front of him.
"I'll stay here forever if I have to, you will teach me." Naruto said, standing his ground with nothing but pure confidence keeping him in place.
"You couldn't handle what I have to teach." Kyuubi stated, dryly.
"Try me." Naruto countered.
Kyuubi sat in silence; he soon turned to face the boy once again. Seriousness plastered his face as he eyed the pre-teen.
"Very well, but first you must prove to me that you're ready. Let someone into your heart, and when they've let their guard down... kill them." Kyuubi ordered.
"But I want to start training now." Naruto stated, getting impatient with the demon fox.
"Your an annoying little insect, fine I'll show you something then you'll do as your ordered and obey without a second thought, understand!?" Kyuubi snarled.
"Deal." Naruto said smugly.
"I've established a mental link between us; when you next fight tell me to channel my chakra through your coils. Once my chakra has entered your body, you'll become faster and stronger and you'll have access to a higher amount of chakra." Kyuubi explained.
"Horse, Dragon, Snake, Dragon, Dog... and then coat your hands in my chakra and act as if you were throwing a rock, or a spear... this will cause fire to escape from the coils in your hand effectively shooting fireballs, so to speak."
"But this jutsu is different than any ordinary technique, you can't use it without my chakra and there's a twenty five percent chance that whatever is hit will spontaneously combust. I call this Fire Style; Multi Exploding Fireball." Kyuubi stated with a hunger filled look in his eyes, the look of a beast that's craving death and destruction. "Now get out of here, you miserable little rat."
Naruto closed his eyes for a few seconds, and re-opened them. He was back in the real world with a smug look on his face.
"He's not so bad after all..." Naruto said out loud. Something alerted Naruto's senses and he threw a shuriken into a nearby bush, a pop was heard and Kakashi appeared beside Naruto.
"Your hearing is remarkable." Kakashi commented, "So did you have a nice talk with Kyuubi?"
Naruto's eyes widened, and he dropped his hand close to his weapon pouch, it was still in there air from when he threw the shuriken. "Are you going to report me...?"
"No," Kakashi said, "But I'd like it if you didn't try to kill me any more, I disarmed all those traps in and around my house. "
Naruto snorted and began his walk back to the village, Kakashi falling into step with him. "You know, Ino told me what happened with Team Eight and what you said to her afterwards."
"Hn, and?" Naruto grunted trying not to care but his eye was carefully trained on the silver haired man.
"And I'd like it if you didn't threaten your team mates like that. They're supposed to look out for you, and vice versa, but how can they do that if they think you're going to kill them."
"Them? Even Sasuke?" Naruto asked curiously, turning his full head towards him. Kakashi nodded but didn't reply.
"Sasuke doesn't need to worry, but Ino... she's so damn annoying!" Naruto said, grinding his teeth together.
"I know, but you're going to meet people in your ninja career that you may not like or even feel intolerable, but you just need to look the other way." Kakashi told him.
"Or I could kill them?" Naruto suggested with a cocky smile.
"And get arrested?" Kakashi countered.
"Okay, so I'll make it look like an accident, or I'll frame someone else." Naruto said nonchalantly, "If you don't quit bugging me, maybe I'll even frame you."
Kakashi's eyes widened and he looked dead serious at Naruto. Naruto burst out laughing, while holding his side and pointing at Kakashi.
"Your face... priceless!" Naruto grinned.
Kakashi sighed. "Idiot..."
