Chapter 4 Gathering more Hearts
o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o-o
"I'm sorry Naruto, but without the Bunshin no jutsu I'm not allowed to pass you." said a sad Iruka. Naruto had gotten perfect scores on everything, but some moron had made it so the basic clone was mandatory. Either that or another Kyuubi hater was out to get the boy.
Naruto closed his eyes and took deep breaths the control his bubbling anger. Mizuki looked at Iruka, "Come on Iruka, this is the third time Naruto's taken the test. This time at least he made a clone that didn't blow up."
Iruka sadly shook his head, "No Mizuki I will not disobey orders, no matter how much I hate it. I'm sorry Naruto." Naruto didn't say a word, a portal opened behind him and he left.
Mizuki gave a evil grin, 'Wonderful now all I have to do is trick the demon brat into taking the scroll. Then I'll kill him and make my way to Orochimaru.'

Realm of Darkness
Naruto took his key and knocked away another dark spider. Contrary to popular believe Heartless weren't the only ones able to go throughout the RoD. In the Realm many monsters and creatures roamed attacking and eating anything that caught their attention.
Naruto had spent three months in while in the real world it had only been three hours. Naruto usually came to the Realm of Darkness to blow off some steam. Like at the moment fending off a hoard of dark spiders. Large Spiders filled with darkness.
Recently though the creatures had been getting more aggressive. Ever since Naruto and his heartless had entered. He and his heartless soon took command of his section of the RoD.
But what really made Naruto smile was that he could find a lot of hearts in the RoD. Though they weren't strong hearts they still made some useful heartless Thanks to that Naruto's Heartless had grown in size by the hundreds.
At the moment he had about 200 Shadows, 145 Soldiers, 50 Large Bodies, 25 Red Nocturne's, 30 Blue Rhapsody's, 20 Yellow Operas, 15 Green Requiems, and 3 new ones called Search Ghosts.
Large Bodies were very large heartless, but clumsy. They had strong arms and impenetrable front bellies. But their backs were their weakness, not that they'll tell anybody.
The Red Nocturne's were flying little things that could shot fireballs at high speeds. The Blue Rhapsody's and Yellow Operas were the same only they shot out ice and called lightning. The Green Requiems were actually healers of the heartless family. But they were very hard to make.
The new Search Ghosts were Naruto's new spies. Able to turn invisible, pass through walls, and transfer information to anyone it touches. At the moment Naruto had 2 traveling the elemental Nations gathering information. While he had the last one looking around the village.
But lets get back to the present, Naruto opened another portal after destroying the last shadow creature. He appeared at the Academy entrance. He sat down on a swing and waited for the traitor.
Oh yes Naruto knew about Mizuki's plan thanks to his Search Ghost. So all he had to do is look stupid and act then he could get a really dark heart.
It wasn't long before the stupid silver haired idiot appeared and talked about a secret test that a failed student could do to pass. Naruto had to resist the urge to roll his eyes as the traitor left with a happy grin on his face.
Naruto called upon his single Search Ghost in the village to go and give the information to the Hokage. Luckily the Hokage knew to look for the Heartless crest on the heartless or he would take it as a rouge one.
Anyways after the Hokage replied and approved of Naruto's plan, the heartless master went into action. He waited until nightfall and then using his portal appeared in the Hokage's office where the Hokage was waiting.
The Hokage gave Naruto a rare mischievous smile and gave a abridged copy of the Forbidden scroll. The Hokage only put in semi-safe jutsu that Naruto would be able to use.

Old shed in the middle of the forest
Naruto waited for Mizuki for about half an hour. It didn't take Naruto long to master the Shadow clone, clone explosion, and the only genjutsu that Naruto could use Bringer of Darkness technique.
So he just leaned against the shed as he waited. Luckily it didn't take him long. As Mizuki jumped into the clearing in mediocre battle suit, plus two giant shuriken.
What Naruto expect though was for Iruka-sensei to also jump into the clearing yelling at him.
"Naruto do you have any Idea what you've done?" shouted a very worried Iruka. Mizuki staid back in the shadows for now. He thought that the darkness would be his ally.
Stupid Mizuki.
Naruto gave a bored expression and told Iruka, "I'm waiting for a traitor, and you being here has blown the entire operation. Congratulations Iruka you just interfered in a A-rank mission."
Iruka looked shocked, at that Mizuki decided to make his appearance. "So you knew that I was tricking you?" Naruto frowned, "No, it was the other way around."
Naruto eyes flashed golden yellow, "I was tricking you." Mizuki was shocked by the eyes but shrugged off as a demon thing. Then he though, 'Speaking of demons.'
"You think you know everything Naruto? Well I bet you don't know why everyone in the village hates you."
In Naruto's head Kyuubi voiced, 'Oh this will turn out nicely.' Naruto mentally laughed at the sheer stupidity and outdated the dumb-ass was. Naruto acted curious, "Oh do you know why they hate me?"
Mizuki gave a evil chuckled, "Why I do believe I do, They hate you for-"
He was cut off as Iruka shouted, "No Mizuki its forbidden!" Mizuki growled at Iruka. "Silence you fool, or have you forgotten how he killed your parents?"
Iruka yelled back, "It is you who is a fool, if you tell him you will be kill on the spot!" Mizuki ignored Iruka and looked back at Naruto. "The reason that they all hate you Naruto is because on the date of your birth the Kyuubi attacked. But what you and the younger generation don't know is that the Kyuubi wasn't killed."
"Stop Mizuki." But the traitor just threw a few shuriken, pinning Iruka to the shed wall. "Be quiet and let me finish!. Now I'd you're wondering what happened to the Kyuubi."
Naruto almost laughed at the moron, the blond decided to humor the traitor. "Where is the Kyuubi if it wasn't killed?" Mizuki laughed, "The beast was put into a human baby form! That baby was you Naruto! You are the Kyuubi no Kitsune!"
Both Mizuki and Iruka looked at Naruto waiting for how the boy would react. They were both surprised when he asked, "Can you get even more stupid than you already are? I already know about the Kyuubi you dumb-ass, and for your information she is sealed within me, I am not her."
Iruka was first to catch it, "Wait did you say her?" Naruto barked a quick laugh, "Of course its female! If it was male, during the attack one good jutsu to the balls and he would surrender!"
Kyuubi was laughing in her cage, just imagining that happening to a male version of her was funny. Iruka and Hiruzen, who was looking through the crystal ball sweat dropped at the logic that Naruto used.
Mizuki was taken out of his stupor as dark and purple energy was gathering at Naruto's feet. Naruto gave a spin chilling laugh.
"And now for breaking the law Mizuki you will be killed. But your existence will not end there, no you will be turned into a creature under my command!."
The energies covered Naruto and left a second later to reveal Naruto in his outfit. (Assassins Creed uniform, only black and purple with the heartless crest as a belt.) Next to appear was the Darkness Key. Naruto took advantage of Mizuki's shock and attacked with the key. It was poised to pierce Mizuki's chest. But the silver hair shinobi dodged at the last moment.
Mizuki stammered, "What is that thing?" Naruto flashed his eyes golden yellow again, "This? Well this Mizuki is a key blade. A weapon of great power and possible destruction. Now I'm only telling you this because in about 10 seconds you'll be dead."
Naruto charged again, Mizuki panicked. "Stay away from me you freak!" He took off his 1st giant shuriken and threw it. Naruto used one of the many spells he learned from his key.
"Reflega!" A glittering dome formed around Naruto. The shuriken hit the dome only to fly backward towards Mizuki. The shuriken took off Mizuki's left arm upon its return.
Mizuki dropped to his knees clutching the bleeding stump, what remained of his arm. "Curse you demon spawn! Curse you to hell!" Naruto kicked Mizuki in the face and pined him to the ground by stepping on his only good arm.
"Any last words Mizuki-baka?" Mizuki just spat in Naruto's face. Naruto wiped it off and then poised the dark key above Mizuki. Then faster than you can say, 'Oh Shit'. The Key pierced Mizuki's body, all the way to the heart.
Unseen by other eyes a large darkness filled heart floated to Naruto. Naruto put out his hand and grabbed the Heart and looked at it with a smile.
"Yes, you'll do nicely. Nicely indeed."

Hokage's office
"Congratulations on graduating the academy Naruto. And also good job on being the first rookie genin to complete a A-Rank mission." Said Hiruzen to Naruto. The boy bowed to show respect and said his thanks.
Then the old man took out a custom made headband. "In regards to the heartless I've made this personalized headband just for you." Naruto looked at his new headband. It was like the any other, but it had a jet black silk cloth and the heartless crest hidden withing the Konoha crest on the purple tinted metal plate.
Naruto looked at the Hokage, "Thank you old man." The hokage smiled, then remembered something. "Oh also Naruto thanks to that ROOT ANBU you gave us we were able to gain a lot of information on Danzo. For that I've transferred a large sum of money to your account."
Naruto smiled, "Anytime old man, now if there is nothing else you need me for?"
Hiruzen shook his head, "No theres not, thank you for all your hard work Naruto-kun you may leave. Now remember to be at team placements by next week."
Naruto nodded, bowed and left via portal.

Realm of Darkness
Naruto looked at the Darkness that filled Mizuki's heart. Naruto focused a lot of darkness energy into the heart. Soon it started to take shape.
The heart grew five times it size then split into 6 parts. 4 of them were equal in size, the 2 others were small and very large. Each part took on a dark purple coat and then formed into their desired form.
2 formed into large arms with yellow bands with 4 claw like fingers on each hand. Another 2 turned into very large armored feet, they too had yellow bands on them.
The biggest part formed into the body of the Heartless, complete with crest and almost hour class form. The smallest part took the form of a helmet with multiple eye holes.
All these parts were floating around together. Naruto smiled at his first Vice Captain class Heartless. The Guard Armor, was what Naruto dubbed the new Heartless.
Naruto trained with the heartless the rest of the day, learning that the armor had many attack modes and even a energy cannon form. Late that night Naruto went up the Hokage monument and watched the stars.
He smiled when he felt 2 familiar people watching him. Both of them belonged to females: Hinata Hyuuga and Ino Yamanaka. He smirked as he commanded his Shadows to let them know that Naruto knew that they were watching him.
Both girls shouted in surprise when the shadows pushed them into the clearing before disappearing. Naruto got up and walked over to them.
"Good evening ladies." Naruto gave each a kiss on the hand, but his smile was short lived when he saw lightning shoot between their eyes.
Naruto frowned and warned them, "Now none of that, if you two can't get along then neither of you can have me. I am not a object for you 2 to fight over like little kids. Understood?" Both of them lowered their heads in shame and nodded.
"Now onto a more happy note I'm glad to say that the Hokage as allowed us to be on the same team."
Ino perked up, "Really? But how do you know this?" Hinata was giddy with happiness but she too was curious. Naruto smiled, "Well at first Ino was going to be on Chouji and Shikamaru's team."
Ino groaned, "Not that I don't like them, their great friends and all. But they wouldn't train seriously." Naruto nodded and looked at the shy lavender eyed princess.
"You would have been with Shino and Kiba." Hinata paled, she hated Kiba. He was always trying to force himself on her. If they were on the same team, who knows what would happen.
"Luckily I've got the Hokage to agree for us to be on the same team. But before we can do all that I must tell you a few things about myself. Certain things that may frighten you. Now I will explain everything but I don't want any interruptions."
Both nodded and then Naruto went on to tell them about the Kyuubi, how she was seal in him, how she was a mother to him. He even went on to tell them about his parents. They gasped every now and then, but they never showed fear or anger at him.
They did show anger at the villagers though. Ino was more vocal at it, while if you looked closely you could see a twitch in Hinata's cheek muscles.
At the end Naruto asked, "So now that you know the truth, what will you do? Will you be like the villagers and hate me? Or will you be some of the few precious people I have?"
Both girls thought hard and took turns replying. Ino talked first, "I know I've been a literal bitch in the past. But if you want to know the truth I've always had a crush on you. No matter what happened to you, you always came back with a smile. I know that you're not the Kyuubi, though now I've heard Kyuubi from your point of view I wish to thank her for keeping you safe.
I'm completely horrified by the way the villagers have treated you. And I hope in time I'll become one of your precious people, Naruto-kun."
Hinata gave a smile, "To tell the truth Naruto-kun, I've known about Kyuubi-san for awhile. My father warned me about you when he saw me taking an interest in you. The day he gave me the third warning was a turning point in my position in the Hyuuga clan. You see you gave me courage to actually stand up to my father and say no.
I've admired you for so long, and that admiration turned to love. Ever since you saved me from those bullies that one day. I don't care if I have to leave the Hyuuga clan, I want to be by your side forever. Even if it means I have to share you with another."
The last part caught Naruto and Ino by surprise. Naruto thankfully changed the subject by bringing up the heartless. When Naruto summoned Nix, who had grown a little bit, the two girls squealed and hugged the pureblood heartless.
After a long explanation both girls accepted the heartless. While in their minds they both promised to be the light that Naruto would need in the coming days.
"Now girls during our time as a team we will be taking on a lot of bandit camps. That means you might see some of the dark side of humanity. I just want to warn you, but for know its time for me to walk you ladies home. Its getting dark.
After walking them both home and getting a kiss on the cheek from both. Naruto entered his apartment in a daze, he flopped on his bed and said.
"My life seems to be getting better, thank kami."
