Authors Note: Well, here is a bit longer of a chapter, to much shit going down to give a quick snipit in the title, well enjoy, and review of course, Reviews are nice.
25 minutes and a walk to the Hokage tower later
Naruto walked up the multiple sets of stairs and stood in front of the old mans door, he knocked lightly on the door, and when he heard a "come in" from the other side of the door he slowly opened the door and walked in
The Hokage just barely glimpsed up from his large pile of paperwork and said "I'm sorry, we don't have any missions to give out at this time, It's a bit late if you didn't notice" Naruto just looked at him for a minute then sighed and said, "Damn jiji I'm only 6 and your already trying to send me out on missions?"
Sarutobi gasped, "Naruto! my god, is that you?"
Naruto put on his foxy grin and said "No duh old man! the one and only!"
Then he said "What happened to you? and what is with these new clothes all of a sudden?" Naruto was about to answer him when Sarutobi saw his new headband and gasped again
"Naruto! who the hell gave you the idea that you were a 'Demon'!?"
Naruto just smirked "Ha, me and you both know that my father sealed the Kyuubi into me 6 years ago Jiji" Sarutobi just gaped like a fish
"Naruto who the hell told you about th-" realization slapped him in the face "Did you just say your Father!?"
Naruto's smirk grew "Well he was my father, Minato Namikaze correct?"
Sarutobi just blinked and then said "Naruto, You will tell me right now who told you about the Kyuubi and about your father, those were both S-class secrets punishable by death!"
Naruto's smirk vanished for a second, then came back slightly smaller "Well, One of the villagers during the attack yelled at me that I was Kyuubi, So I asked my new sensei what they meant when I was in the hospital and he accidentally let it slip that the Yondaime was my father"
Sarutobi's stunned expression was gone in a second replaced with a look of pure anger and fury "Naruto, You. Will. Tell. Me. Who. Your. Sensei. Is. NOW! Do I make myself clear? I would very much like to have a word with him"
Naruto's smirk changed into a full grin and he Said, "Well it might be a bit hard for you to, per say have a word with him but I can relay a message to you and from him, you see Jiji, My new sensei is Kyuubi no Kitsune"
Naruto cringed at the end of his statement knowing what was coming...and oh boy did it
"WHAT!!"
"Hah, that's more or less the exact reaction I was expecting from you Jiji"
Sarutobi got himself under control and continued like nothing happened "Naruto you know what the Kyuubi did to this village, to your family 6 years ago, why in the hell are you learning from it!"
Naruto got serious now, play time was over "Well, to be honest Jiji, I don't have a choice if I don't learn from him for the next 4 years I will die on my 10th birthday"
Sarutobi was now more concerned then angry when he said "Naruto what are you talking about how do you know that?"
Naruto began retell everything the Kyuubi had told him to the Hokage, by the end of it he looked rather happy actually, though still concerned for the boy he thought of as a grandson
"So Naruto, You and Kyuubi are training for the next four years to prevent your death upon the transformation then?"
"Hai, we are Jiji, in fact today was our first day of training it wasn't bad at all, I'm already getting stronger."
Then Naruto got a sad look in his eyes for the first time that night and said, "I do have one question I want to know the answer to though Jiji"
"Yes what is it Naruto, what do you want to know?"
"I was just wondering, I mean I know about my dad and all but I'm really wondering about...what about my mother? what happened to her then? did she hate me for what I contained to?" At this point a tear slipped from his eye and fell down his face to the floor.
Sarutobi saw this and shot up from his desk and said "Don't You ever believe that for even one second Naruto! Your mother loved you with all of her heart!, unfortunately though, she passed away on the same night you were born from complications with your birth. Her name was Kushina Uzumaki, she was originally an extremely power Jounin from the now non-existent whirlpool country before she met your father and she was quite possibly one of the most powerful kunoichi of her time."
At this point Naruto was crying freely but didn't care, he jumped up from where he had been siting and ran over to his grandfather figure and hugged him and said "Thank you Jiji, thank you so much for telling me about my mom"
Sarutobi smiled at Naruto and said "It's my pleasure Naruto, I just wish they could be here to see how much you've grown and to see the powerful man you will become in the future. But now it is getting late and I think you should head home for the night, I'll see you around Naruto, and when your 10 I'll enroll you into the Ninja Academy so you can become a ninja ok?"
Naruto smiled up at him and said "Thank you again Jiji, and yes I would love to go to the academy when I'm 10, thank you again, and I'll see you later"
He walked over to the door, opened it left, and slowly closed it behind him. Sarutobi sat down behind his desk and lit his famous Pipe while musing to himself
"That kid, he's always full of surprises, I have no doubt that he will become more powerful then anyone ever has, he sure has the drive"
Time Skip 4 years to the night before Naruto turns 10 years Old
Inside Naruto's Mind scape
"Kit, are you ready for this tonight"
"I Sure hope so Kyuubi, I mean we have been preparing for this night for the past 4 years, and I've grown a lot now that I'm able to buy more then just Ramen"
"Hah, well anyway all we can do is hope it was enough, the seal will Vanish at 12:00 Midnight, and it's 11:53Pm right now, So we have 7 minutes to plan and wait"
"Oh yeah Kit, just so you know, This is going to hurt, ALOT, the transformation into a Hanyou is more then just a simple chakra change, a lot of your physical body will change as well, you will have Fox ears when this is done, and Almond shaped eyes with slit pupils, you will also grow 9 tails from your tail bone, Also your entire skeletal system is going to shatter and regrow, slightly larger and much stronger to replace your feeble human skeleton. but yes this may very well be the most painful this that you ever experience, but if we survive it, it will be more then worth the pain in the end, for one you will be alive, and as we've gone over a lot over the years, you will have nigh endless chakra and huge amounts of strength, your mind will also undergo a change so, it's possible you might mature almost fully over night.
"Umm ok, I'll try my best Kyuubi, but that sounds incredibly painful but all I can do is hope right? I mean we've done all we can for now...lets see oh hey 11:58, two more minutes until hell breaks loose, time to enjoy the last two minutes of being a Human, hahahah"
"Ok what the hell to do, this is the most suspenseful two damn minutes of my life, I mean It could be two minutes till I die a Horrible death or two minutes until I-" 12:00AM"AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH"
"Oh god it hurts, make it stop!!"
"AHHHHHHH"
Naruto writhed around on his apartment floor glowing red as the demon chakra overtook his human chakra and changed him, tendrils of chakra were shooting off of him smashing things around him while he screamed bloody murder into his curled up knees. He felt his skull split open and two fox ears sprout up onto his head, He felt his tail bone exploding and the skin ripping apart as 9 tails of Blond/Crimson color ripped out, and he felt every single bone in his Body shatter and reform twice as strong.
After what seemed like years of torture the pain finally stopped and he blacked out.
'Am-am I dead?', 'Figures it wouldn't be enough in the end and I just let Kyuubi and myself down in the largest way possible...death'
Then he heard something, he wasn't sure what it was at first but then he was sure he heard it 'Kit, wake up kit!'
'Wait, that's Kyuubi, If he's alive then I must be alive too! Yatta!!'
He slowly willed himself to open his eyes, and when he did, he was amazed everything was instantly perfectly focused and crisp he could see EVERYTHING, he could smell the crisp morning are and the dew outside, he could hear birds chirping out in the forests that surround Konoha, He groaned.
This is definitely going to take some getting used to. but the first thing that came to mind, was to go look in the mirror, so he did just that, he got up and walked over to the Mirror and looked at himself, he was quite shocked, on the top of his head there were 2 fox ears that were blond with streaks of Crimson across them, they twitched and swiveled at every sound around him, he could get used to them he supposed, then he noticed his eyes, they were very feral, fox like even they were almond shaped, but his eyes were still his normal deep blue, but the regular circle pupils were gone, replacing them were long feral vertical slits.
The last thing he noticed, but the biggest change about him, were the nine new long tails that were swaying happily behind him, they alternated in color, the First one was Blond with streaks of crimson and the second was crimson with streaks of blond, and they alternated like that ever tail, He decided to see if he could consciously control the tails, so he willed them to pick up his vest off the chair he sat it on, and sure enough they did.
'This is going to be soo great' he thought but the next thing he thought was 'oh shit!
I start at the academy today!'
'Fuck! I can't go like this!'
'Hey, Kyuubi is there anyway to hide my new appearance for a while?'
'Well, sort of Kit, You could do a Henge no jutsu, but be careful if you get hit or lose to much concentration it will dispel, I learned the hand seals a while ago while fighting some humans, here they are' with that he showed Naruto a mental picture of the hand seals he needed, so Naruto tried it and thought about his regular self while trying it and "Poof" there stood a normal looking Naruto
'hey thanks Kyuubi I owe ya one'
'Hah, sure kit, just let me know when it's safe, I want to come out of this damn seal now, I'd like to breathe some real air'
'oh Kyuubi, how big will you be out of the seal? gonna be hard to hide a house sized fox'
'Not to worry Kit, I can control my size out there as well, I'll remain 'large' for a fox sized, so about a dog I guess'
'Alright thats simple enough, Come on out! I wanna meet the Kyuubi in the flesh, hah'
'Ok then, here goes nothing' After a few seconds there was an Audible 'Poof' and there in front of Naruto stood a dog sized crimson fox with 9 tails swaying happily behind it
"Hot damn it worked! I can breath again!"
"Holy shit you can talk as a fox!"
"I am technically a summon now that I'm free to roam beyond to seal, so yes I can talk, even as a fox"
"Sweet, umm anyway to hide 8 of those tails? we might look suspicious with a 9 tailed fox with 'the Kyuubi kid' hahaha"
"Hmm, lets see here, ahhh here we are! 'poof' one, one tailed fox at your service"
"Sweet, what should we use for your name though, cant well call you Kyuubi, hah"
"Umm, How bout Kage? as in Shadow, like I shadow you everywhere you go"
"Sweet name, I'm glad foxes are so quick-witted, anyway lets get going to go see Hokage-sama"
"Ok, What happened to Jiji though?" "I dunno, guess I thought I should show some respect for once"
"Hah, It's a Miracle the boy is showing respect to his superiors!"
"Har de Har, Kage lets get going"
"Right, lets go" And with that the two new and improved companions headed off towards the Hokage tower to meet up with the newly dubbed 'Hokage-sama' to get signed up for the academy, The stares the two got on the way were quite hillarious, nearly every person that glared at them shit their pants when a dog sized fox growled at them for doing it. to say it wasn't a new feel would be a bold faced lie, to say Naruto didn't enjoy it would be a bigger lie, He loved being able to scare the people right back for the shit they put him through when he was little, At least the physical attacks stopped that night when he was six, since he was strong enough to defend himself then and he could run for a long time before getting tired, but the psychological battle never ceased.
15 Minutes later they arrived at the Hokage's office and Naruto knocked lightly on the door the familiar 'Come in' signaled there queue to enter so, they did just that Naruto opened the door and strode into the office, Confidence through the roof and his happiness off the charts. Sarutobi looked up at the boy, who had seemingly grown 3 inches overnight and his smiled.
"So, did the transformation take place as expected Naruto?"
"Mmm, Yes it did Hokage-sama, and I feel better then I ever have"
"Hmm you barely changed at all except got taller, I was expecting you to look a bit different"
"Umm, well I do, Kyuubi taught me the Henge no Jutsu to hide it for now"
"Wow, Henge already huh? thats one of the graduation requirements to become a genin you know. But do you think you could drop your henge so I can see the real you?"
"Umm, are you sure Hokage-sama, you wont get upset or anything right?
"Naruto I would never be upset with you because of something you can't control"
"well -cringe- here goes...Kai!"
Naruto's Henge dropped revealing his two fox ears and his 9 colorful tails, and those blue slitted almond eyes. At this Sarutobi's pipe promptly feel from his mouth to the floor as his eyes widened in amazement. Naruto cringed at that look, he knew that look to well, Shock, disbelief, and regret.
"Well then Naruto, you sure have changed havent you?" said Sarutobi as he broke out into a big smile
"Y-you mean your not upset?"
"Upset? I said I never would be upset for something you can't control my boy I was just surprised by all the changes. By the way, I'm curious, what are you doing with that large fox that's standing next to you?"
"Ahh, I was wondering when you would ask this is 'Kage' he is my new companion, and Kage you can let them all out, I want him to know the truth"
Sarutobi got a questioning look in his eye at the end of the statement, but then flat out gasped as 8 more tails appeared behind him and the fox said
"Hahahaha, Pleasure to meet the 3rd Hokage, you've taken good care of my little student here before he awoke me, and for that I must thank you, without your assistance neither he nor I would be here today"
Sarutobi continued to gape, with good reason "Ky-Kyuubi?!" was his intelligent response
"The one and only, at your service, I must apologize for my attack on the village 10 years ago, it was not my choice to make, I was under control by the Sharingan by one Uchiha Madara, but thats neither here nor there. I believe we are getting enrolled into the academy today, correct?" Still trying to get through the shock of actually holding a conversation with the one and only Kyuubi no Kitsune Sarutobi just nodded at him dumbly.
"Well great Hokage-sama, when can we do that, I'd like not to miss the entire first day of my education" he smirked as he said it and Sarutobi rose slowly and walked towards the door, as he did so Naruto recast his Henge and Kyuubi retracted his 8 other tails.
Sarutobi said "Alright lets go get you enrolled the Naruto"
"Sweet I wonder what my classmates are like and what the classes are like?"
"Hah, You'll see soon enouh my boy, soon enough, by the way, do you plan on revealing yourself to your fellow classmates about who you are and...what...you are?"
"That I am Hokage-sama, but I would like to take time with that, as I don't know to what extent I can trust them yet"
15 minutes of walking later they all arrive at the Academy
"Ok Naruto, we're here, are you completely ready?"
"Of course I am Jiji! I am one of the most powerful people in the village now you know, I have nothing to fear except myself...and you"
"Hah, same old spirit Naruto, well I'll go and talk to the instructor quickly and get you set up, wait right here and I'll be right back"
"Okay, hurry though I don't like waiting!"
And with that Sarutobi slide open the door of the Academy and walked down the hall to what will be Naruto's class, he knock on the door only to have Iruka Umino open it and give a slight gasp, "Ah, Hokage-sama, What can I do for you on this fine day?"
"I'm here to enroll a very special student Iruka, His name is Naruto Uzumaki, and he has the potential to be the most powerful being ever"
Iruka gasped, "D-did you just say Uzumaki, Hokage-sama?"
Sarutobi Smiled, "That I did Iruka, That I did, but the boy needs help opening up to people, he's been alone his entire life, but I think he will bloom socially once he gets settled in"
"Very well, Hokage-sama I will happily take the boy into my class"
"Oh and Iruka, he has a fox companion with him, his names Kage he's rather protective of the boy so I suggest letting him stay with him"
"Sure thing Hokage-sama, the Inuzuka Boy has a pet dog with him everyday anyway"
"Thank you Iruka, and best of luck" Sarutobi said
"Hey, Naruto Come here and Bring Kage too"
Naruto came walking down the hall with 'Kage' at his side and came up to Sarutobi and Iruka and he asked "Yes? what's up Hokage-sama?"
"Naruto, this is Iruka he is going to be your new teacher, so make sure you show him and any other teachers the same respect you would with me ok?"
"Sure thing Hokage-sama, It's a Pleasure to meet you Iruka-sama, I'm Naruto Uzumaki and this is my companion, Kage"
Iruka asked, "Naruto can I ask why you named him Kage?"
"Yeah sure, His name's Kage because he is like a shadow and follows me everywhere in life or death"
"Pleasure to meet you Iruka-sama"
now that threw Iruka for a loop
"D-did he just talk?"
"Haha, that he did Iruka-sama, He can speak because he was once a summon that somehow got stranded on this plane of existence"
"Well then, that is most peculiar, you are amazing me already Naruto"
"Hah am I now? Just wait till you see what we can really do"
"Hmm, Ok then shall we head inside then Naruto? and It has been an honor to see you today Hokage-sama"
"Sure lets go Iruka-sama, see ya later Jiji!"
"Haha, have a great first day Naruto, best of luck to you" with that he 'poofed' away.
At this point Naruto followed Iruka up to the door and waited outside while Iruka announced the addition of a new student to the class Iruka then asked him to come inside, so he did, then the whole class gasped at seeing the boy dressed in Black and Crimson with the 'Demon' headband and a fox at his side, Naruto Bowed and said,
"Hello Everyone, My name is Naruto Uzumaki, and I hope to get to know everyone of you better"
at this point 'duck ass' AKA Sasuke Uchiha spoke up and said
"Your just some loser who thinks he's all that"
Naruto then turned around and said "Fuck off fag I don't want some jealous guy grabbing at my ass"
Half the Class gasped at the Insult at the Uchiha, this being the girls, all the boys broke out laughing as Iruka yelled at Naruto to apologize, Naruto turned to apologize to Iruka, and Sasuke's number one fan girl Sakura Haruno picked up her text book and threw it at the back of Naruto's head. It cracked him in the head and he hit the floor, then there was a loud 'Poof' as his Henge dispelled, Naruto muttered "Mother fucker" under his breath while rubbing the back of his head while getting up.
Then he heard the whole Class gasp and go quite, he even heard Iruka gasp so he said the only thing he could
"what, is there something on my face?"
Then he noticed there seemed to be 9 tails behind him, he yelled out
"Damn it! that was like 5 minutes here! SHIT I wanted to keep it a secret longer then that!"
At this point everyone in the class was confused out of their minds, since none of the kids knew the Kyuubi lived that fateful day 10 years ago, but Iruka, Iruka knew and he just said,
"Naruto, What the hell is going on here!?"
"Damn it" was all Naruto could say "All right it seems like I get to explain some things far ahead of schedule, shit"
"Right well you all know the story of the Nine tailed demon right? the Kyuubi no Kitsune? How it was killed 10 years ago by the Yondaime at the cost of his own life right?"
Everyone in the room nodded "Well, that story is a lie, it always has been, any demon that has more then 4 tails cannot be killed by humans, they can only seal them away, and then the demon would die when the person it was sealed in would die...Well the Yondaime had to seal the demon into someone, But anyone that wasn't just born very recently wouldn't work, there chakra Coils are to well formed and would be destroyed by the attempt and the demon would be free. So you see the only way to seal the demon away is to seal it into a newborn child. That baby...was me"
Right about here the entire class was quiet, too quiet, the Silence was almost painful. But then Iruka asked
"But that does not explain why you look the way you do Naruto"
'damn, he's too smart for his own good'
"Thats true Iruka It doesn't, when the Yondaime made the seal it was designed so my bod y would slowly absorb the Kyuubi's power and soul until I was 50 years old and then he would die and be gone. But when the Kyuubi was sealed he 'was not the happiest customer' so he did everything in his power to escape, he ended up badly damaging and altering the seal which made it so instead of just absorbing the Kyuubi's power and make it disappear, I would absorb the power and make it mine to control, the seal turned me into a Half-demon, it turned me into a Hanyou...it also greatly sped up the process so that it finished on my tenth birthday instead of my 50th, I have to say that was the most painful and horrid night of my life."
Everyone was speechless. "Even after caging the beast the whole village still hates me, but I've grown past them, Now the Kyuubi holds no power and is rather a friendly guy when you get to know him." everyone was speechless, what this little 10 year old kid gave for his village, he gave more then anyone could ever ask someone to give, and kept on giving and receiving nothing for it. most of the peoples opinions of the kid standing before did and instant 180, and changed for the good not bad, Naruto then concluded his little Impromptu speech "I have given everything I can for this village, and I would gladly give my life for any of you, or anyone from Konoha for that matter, i just want people to accept me and stop hating me for what I am, if you hate me then hate me for who I am and not for what I am, that's the only request I have, I'm not asking you to like me for what I've done, I'm just asking you not to hate me for what I haven't done" and with that Naruto went up the steps and sat next to a raven haired girl with violet eyes, he sat next to her and smiled, she blushed heavily from seeing his smile and he asked.
"Hi, what's your name?"
"H-Hinata H-Hyuuga"
"Oh, That's a pretty name Hinata, You don't hate me for what I am do you?"
"N-no of c-course not!"
"Well great! say...do you you know wanna be...friends with me?"
'He's asking me if i want to be friends with him??'
"Of course I do Naruto-kun!"
At this point one Kiba Inuzuka slide over next to Naruto and struck up a conversation with him as well
"Hi ya, my names Kiba Inuzuka"
"Hi ya, I'm sure you know my name already, hah"
"True, I was wondering...Your fox is there anything special about him? My clan uses dogs in combat, Akamaru here is my dog and I'm gonna raise him to be a fierce combatant"
"Cool, his names Kage by the way, we're extremely close aren't we Kage?"
"Huh? yeah"
"Wh-wha-what the hell, did he just talk!?"
"Hai he did, he is an Ex-summon who was trapped in this realm when I found him, we've been together since then"
"That's freaking sweet, you have a summon with you 24/7 least you never get bored, Is he smart?"
"Smarter then you are meat bag"
"Umm...ok then, do you know how old he is?
"Actually, I don't I've been meaning to find out though, Hey Kage how old are you? you've never told me"
"Ugh, Kit I'll be turning 2,653 in 3 months, can I go back to sleep now or am I still up for show and tell?
"Holy shit! 2,653? god damn, he really was a summon, only those things can live that long"
"Well...thats not entirely true Kiba, I'm Immortal as well...now that I'm a Hanyou..."
"Wow, Really? that's Awesome! you never get old!"
"Actually, it's a double edged sword Kiba, think about it, you have to watch anyone you love slowly get older and older, then fall ill and die, I'm certainly not looking forward to the first 100 years of my life...going through all that pain will be very difficult...Assuming anyone ever likes me enough for me to get attached that is..."
"Wow...I never really thought about it like that man...that kinda sucks actually I would want to be able to grow old with my loved ones, not out live them."
"Well, I guess you can't always get everything you want to out of life, eh Kiba? on the upside of things I'm going to be the most powerful being on the planet within a few years, I just don't know any techniques to use my chakra with, right now all I could do is use my tails and taijutsu...or just attack with pure chakra"
Hinata asked "N-Naruto-kun, if you umm don't mind or anything...just how much chakra do you have right now?"
"Hmm that's a good question I never tried to measure it or compare it to anyone else lemme ask Iruka something quick, ok?"
"umm Ok Naruto-kun"
"Hey, Iruka do you think we could go outside for a little bit of training or anything later, I wanted to see how much chakra I have...since I have no idea"
"Sure Naruto, that's a great idea actually"
"Everyone, after lunch don't come back inside! the instructors will come outside for a little bit of hands on training"
Most of the kids in the classroom cheered at this since they are still little kids and like being outside more then inside. The bell broke the silence, notioning for the kids to go outside and have lunch...and play for the more rambunctious ones, Kiba instantly booked outside grabbing one Naruto, and one Hinata by their arms dragging them outside with him
"Hey Kiba what gives, what the hell are you gonna do to me?"
"Relax Naruto, I'm not trying to hurt you guys, just bringing you over to my favorite spot"
"Umm, Ok I guess, hey Kiba, do you wanna be friends with me and Hinata?"
"Sure, why not you guys seem cool enough" Kiba said while grinning like a fool
"Thanks, I've never had any friends before you guys...Umm so what do friends do?"
"What? wow...you aren't kidding are you? well umm friends just hang out, relax talk share secrets and stuff I suppose, get to know each other I guess...girls gossip and stuff I think"
"Well, Hinata what do you think friends do?"
"Umm, well I'm not really sure either N-naruto-kun, my father always said we were to good to associate with most kids...so I never really had any real friends either"
"Wow...I never would have thought someone as nice and as pretty as you wouldn't have friends Hinata...Hinata? are you ok? Hinata!?"
(Hinata has passed out from Naruto calling her pretty, and nice)
"Well, umm that was weird she just feinted while you were in the middle of talking...she is a weird one isn't she?"
"Yeah, but I like her, she's not like most girls who just fawn over one guy because other girls do she's...unique"
And so lunch passed without much incident, everyone stayed in their little groups, Sasuke was being glomped by his fan girl-club, Shino's bugs made an interesting observation that Naruto has a vast amount of chakra that easily surpasses the Third Hokage's even Naruto and Kiba more or less kept to themselves for the rest, while waiting for Hinata to wake up from her little episode, finally the end of lunch was signaled by another bell, and the instructors, Iruka and Mizuki came outside with some clipboards and papers. They were walking over towards the center of the yard when Naruto walked up to Iruka and asked, "Hey umm, Iruka-sama, I was wondering if there was a way to gauge how much chakra I have? I've never checked and I was just wondering how much I have..." Iruka took a quick thinking posture and then as if a little light bulb went off above him he yelled
"Aha! yes Naruto, there is a pretty good way to tell, What we can do is have you flare your chakra while Shino's bugs see how much you release and then you compare it to how much chakra you feel you have left, so say you flare off 1/10th of your chakra, so you'd multiply it by 10 then compare it to someone of higher level, such as myself or Mizuki-san here"
"Umm, Ok Iruka-sama, so how exactly do I...'flare' my chakra?"
"Hmm how to explain it...you know how to mold your chakra, since you had a Henge on this morning right?"
"Yes, yes I do"
"Well, you just focus as if you were drawing chakra for a jutsu, but instead of expending it on a jutsu, you just force it out of your body continuously"
"Hmm...Ok that doesn't sound to hard, do you think you could get Shino so I could try it quick?"
"Well sure I don't see why not,"
"Hey Shino, could you come help us for a minute?"
"Yes? what do you Need Iruka-sensei?"
"We were wondering if you could gauge how much chakra Naruto releases when he flares his chakra so we can try and see how much he has"
"While I would be glad to do that Iruka-sensei, it is not necessary, My insects can detect the chakra just being emitted by a person to the air around them naturally, and they can detect an estimate of how much chakra they have just from that, there is no need for him to waste chakra on Flaring it...not that Naruto needs to worry about wasting some chakra though"
"Well, there goes my idea, what did you mean the Naruto doesn't need to worry about things like wasting a bit of chakra on Flaring his chakra?"
"Well, Naruto has a lot of chakra...so he doesn't have to worry about wasting it much"
"Just how much chakra does Naruto have Shino?...lets say, compared to Hokage-sama just for fun"
At this point the whole class was interested in this and the answer they received surely shocked the hell out of everyone in the school, likely it would shock the whole world.
"Well, using Hokage-sama isn't the best example, but I would Naruto has somewhere around...Three to four hundred times the amount of chakra the Hokage has, maybe more"
"WHAT? how the hell is that possible?!" was the reaction of the whole classes, Instructors included
"Well, Iruka-sama that actually seems to make sense to me now that I think about it...I mean I have all the power and chakra of the Kyuubi no Kitsune in me...it would kind of make sense for me to have a huge amount of chakra...but I wasn't thinking that high...damn that's a lot of chakra though"
After a while of every gawking at Naruto's chakra reserves the instructors decided on something they could do meaning, Mizuki thought of a way to completely embarrass the 'Demon kid' so they decided to have 1-1 taijutsu matches between students. The first few matches were not that special just a couple no name kids from the class going at it like a bunch of drunken monkeys, then the next match was called "Naruto Uzumaki Vs. Sasuke Uchiha" This fight actually had Naruto sweating, 'I don't know anything special with taijutsu! the Baka-fox only taught me how to kick and punch properly for the physical training!'
"Umm, Iruka can I take off all my weights and chakra repression seals for the fight?"
"What!? You were weights and chakra repression seals Naruto!?"
"Well..yeah It's a long story and more or less if I didn't wear them I would have suffered a horrible death when I turned 10"
"Umm...Ok but yeah you can take them off, Just how much weight are you wearing though?"
"Oh, not much just some gravity seals set to 25 times normal gravity"
"Not much?? That's more then anyone I've ever seen set them Naruto! Even Maito Gai, an Jounin taijutsu master only sets his to 15 times normal gravity!"
"Umm, Is that a good thing then? I always just upped the level when ever i stopped noticing the weight, and over the last 4 years its gone this high"
" I guess the reason I'm so strong is because of the fact that I'm a Hanyou"
"Damn...Sasuke your in for a tough fight...ok boys no Ninjutsu or Genjutsu, this is a strictly a taijutsu match, Is that clear?"
"Yes Sensei" they both said
"Ok then, Begin!"
Naruto turned off all his seals and cracked his neck and shoulders
"Man, I've never had to be in a real fight, this should be f--"
Naruto never got to finish his sentence because of the roundhouse kick Sasuke sent to his stomach "Ooof"
"Damn, that stung a little Emo boy"
That right ticked Sasuke off, he jumped back and jumped up above Naruto and did a flip ending in a Axe kick to Naruto's head, the force was insane and it knocked Naruto about an inch down into the soft soil
"Damn Sasuke, that actually hurt! guess I should try to fight back..."
Naruto saw Sasuke charging at him again but he was more prepared this time, Sasuke went to kick him in the stomach again but Naruto just grabbed his leg with one hand, "tsk tsk, emo boy you shouldn't try the same attack twice on someone who's been attacked all his life" Naruto just started adding more and more pressure onto Sasuke's poor limb and till he swung out with his fist and split open Naruto's lip, Naruto spit out a mouth of blood then giggled 'that son of a bitch has the gal to giggle after being hit?! I'll teach him the meaning of pain!' Sasuke charge Naruto again and went to throw a roundhouse kick to the head but Naruto grabbed it, Sasuke used the momentum to follow though with another punch down onto the top of his head but Naruto blocked ith with his other hand, so Sasuke did the only thing he had left to do, He went to kick him with his other leg and Naruto had nothing to block it, a straight shot to his kidney, Once, twice, three times he kept kicking him over and over but Naruto wouldn't put him down, in fact he let go of his arm and grabbed his leg with both arms and started twisting until there was a distinctive 'Pop!' and Sasuke screamed, Naruto had dislocated his knee, "You son of a bitch! I'll teach you not to mess with an Uchiha!" Sasuke started flashing through hand seals when Iruka yelled "Sasuke no jutsu's are allowed!" but his call fell on deaf ear as Sasuke finished his seals and yelled out "Katon! Goukakyuu no Jutsu!" then he blew out a huge fireball...just like that night 6 years ago, Naruto has paralyzed with the flashing of the night before his eyes, he didn't hear his classmates and Iruka screaming for him to get out of the way, he was just paralyzed with fear, and by the time he realized it wasn't just a flashback he screamed, not a scream of pain, the scream of a terrified 6 year old that was beaten by a mob, Naruto was engulfed by the fire ball, and his vest burned off almost instantly into ash, Naruto himself was immune to fire, now as he just found out, So he thought he would make Sasuke sweat for a bit under the instructors, to see how the instructors handled the 'demon kid' being gone so Naruto ran as fast as he could, which turn out to be incredibly fast out the back of the fire ball into the bush behind them and laid down to watch. When Sasuke's jutsu ended and the fireball faded all anyone saw on the ground were some ashes of what looked to be clothes and some melted Shuriken and Kunai.
Iruka Immediately collapsed to his knee's and just said
"Oh god no"
while Mizuki looked as if he actually had a smirk on his face about the kid being dead. All of Naruto's classmates looked Horrified that the kid they had just met earlier that day was reduced to nothing but ash in a training exercise, Hinata was openly crying while Kiba was holding her as she cried into his shoulder sobbing out "Naruto-kun!"
Every few breathes.
All the girls looked about to cry, even that Sakura Girl that threw the book at him looked about ready to cry, and then she did something Naruto didn't expect the Fan girl to do, she walked up to Sasuke and punched him square in the face while tears streamed from her eyes, as Sasuke looked up at her, quite shocked at what she did she just looked down and said,
"What the fuck is wrong with you Sasuke! you just killed your classmate because he was better then you in a fight!" Sasuke schooled his face and replied
"He obviously wasn't better then me if he couldn't even save himself from a simple jutsu"
Everyone looked absolutely horrified that he just killed one of them without a care in the world, but Sakura she just leaned down and punched him in the face again
"Naruto was right! he wasn't a monster, YOU ARE THE MONSTER SASUKE!"
Sakura took off crying...'wow I never thought she would ever stand up to him, even if she had to kill the world to get his attention'
Naruto decided play time was over and this needed to end this before something happened, so he crawled out of the bush he was in, completely naked from the waist up, and covered in black soot and ash. open seeing him everyone just gaped,
"How the hell are you still alive Naruto!" Iruka yelled,
"Umm when the fire ball hit me it some how just burned off my clothes and launched me into the bush back there"
"Kami, Naruto do you know how lucky you are right now? that fireball could have easily killed you!"
"Oh damn it now we have to go find Sakura now that she ran off after that"
"I'll get her Iruka, do you know which was she went?" Iruka pointed down the street then looked back down at the pile of ashes he thought was his new student
Naruto sighed then took off down the street, sniffing the air following Sakura's sweet scent of Strawberries and Vanilla
"Mmm, at least it's a nice scent to follow for once"
Naruto followed the scent to it's creator, there was Sakura sitting in an alley with her knee's drawn up against her chest with her head down crying her eye's out. Naruto walked next to her and sat down next to her and put his arm around her shoulders and said
"It's alright Sakura-chan, I'm ok...Sasuke didn't kill me"
Sakura brought her head up thinking it was just someone with a henge trying to fuck with her mind, but when she looked into those cat like eyes of his, she could tell it was the real person, she turned and grabbed him in a hug and buried her face into his, decidedly filthy chest and just cried harder
"I don't know why I cared so much, but when I thought you were gone It was like the world lost all light and instantly turned dark and unhappy"
"Shhh, It's okay Sakura I'm still alive, and I always will be, I'll never let you or anyone else's world go dark while I can do something about it"
Sakura lifted her now soot covered face up to look into his eyes and said "Do you really mean that Naruto-kun? You'll always be here for me?"
"Yes, it's my job, and my way of life to protect people and to stick to my word, If I say I'll protect you then I would gladly take a Kunai to the heart and die in your place"
"Really?" Naruto shook his head slightly and laughed lightly, "I said yes and I mean it, I'm going to do everything in my power to protect those of this village and those this village protects, That is my nindo, My ninja way"
"But Naruto, we aren't even real ninjas yet, we're just academy students"
"Let me ask you something Sakura, why did you want to become a ninja, or more so what do you want to do in your life"
"I want to protect people, and to become powerful and be looked up on, not treated badly just because I'm a women, I want to be a Famous Kunoichi like the Slug Princess, Lady Tsunade"
"Hai, that is a fantastic goal Sakura, if you want me to, I could try and help you train to attain your goal, I have all the time in the world to reach my goal Time is nothing to me and I would be happy to make you happy, and to see you thrive"
"Really? You would do that for me even after what I did to you earlier today?"
"Sakura, I do not care about the past, only the present and the future matter now, I should at least know that, the things I've forgiven people for in my life, beatings, torture, attempted murder, you name it I've let them all go, in hopes for a better future. You wont see me hold a grudge against anyone, unless they are truly stupid and threaten someone who is precious to me, so what do you say Sakura, would you like my help in training to be the best that you can be?"
"Of course, I would love for you to help me train"
Shaking his head and laughing slightly Naruto said "Ok then, lets meet on the weekends to train together for the future then!"
"Okay!" Sakura said Happily
"Hmm, Sakura you've got some soot on your face from my chest, here let me get it for you" with that he brought his tail forward grabbed it and wiped the soot away from Sakura's face, She giggled and said "Naruto-kun, stop that tickles! hehe"
"haha, Sorry Sakura, these tails seem to have a lot of great uses, lets get back to the Academy for now ok? they are likely worried about us, do you want me to carry you, or can you walk?"
'wow, he's so much of a gentleman already' "N-no it's alright I can walk on my own" with that she got up and smoothed out her dress and the two walked back to the Academy naturally the kids being only 10 when Naruto and Sakura got back they were all whispering "Naruto and Sakura Sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G" Naruto sighed at it but to his surprise Sakura, actually giggled at it instead of getting furious like he expected 'Hmm it's like her personality did a complete 180 in not but a few hours, amazing'
The rest of the day was uneventful the taijutsu matches were finished, Naruto was declared winner of his and Sasuke's match and Sasuke got suspended for 2 weeks for using a potentially lethal jutsu in a training spar with no jutsu's allowed, Sakura Demanded more punishment for the 'monster' but Naruto told her that 2 weeks was more then enough for the 'Emo bastard' and the he forgave his mistake this time Sakura still thought his punishment was to light for what he did to 'Naruto-kun'
The rest of the week went similarly to the first day, but minus the near fatal taijutsu match and the following events.
