chap 4. disclaimer: I dont own anything :'(
Please review. last chapter got nothing. Oh yeah feel free to put the pairings you want in the reviews. kinda like a poll. it'll influence my choice.
Naruto
Naruto smashed against a tree panting with sweat all over. The resulting crack shook everyone in a 5 mile radius's jaws. The tree snapped and fell with a thump.
Naruto stood up rubbing his head. He looked over to where Haku was standing ready to fight and Zabuza was looking on with interest.
"Good hit Haku." Naruto congratulated him. " Did you use a Hyoton ice Cricket bat to hit me?"
"Baseball." Haku admitted with a smirk.
Over the past few days Naruto and Haku had grown to be close friends. They both understood each other better than Zabuza, or anyone could. They felt each others pain and felt like brothers as a result. This didnt mean Zabuza was then ignored. No he was like the father figure. 'Freaky family' Naruto thought. 'Meh, at least its a family.' He was content.
They had also become rivals. They sparred every chance they got. It was always a good fight to see and Zabuza took it upon himself to admire their abilities. Haku always won. But each fight it was by less and less. Naruto had yet to see the weakness of the Hyoton: Ice Demonic ice mirrors (What is the japanese name) Naruto had trained for roughly5 hours every evening before he came to join with Zabuza. He had been taught by Kyuubi, or 'Kyu' as she wanted to be known, a training regime which went like this:
Warm up
20 push ups 20 sit ups 20 squat
Stretch
Training
Run up and down the tallest tree in the vincinity for one hour Tree hop without a break for one hour sit ups for and hour with a five minute break halfway Press ups for and hour with a five minute break halfway squats for and hour with a five minute break halfway.
Stretch down Working on greater flexibility.
Relax
Of course this was all done with a weight to make it harder and increase his stamina incredibly. But seeing as he had no weights he had to use gravity seals. They showed as Black angular tattoos on his wrists, ankles, waist and shoulders. The pattern was like aztec. The Gravity seals were placed by Kyu when Naruto first summoned her. She had painted them on by using her own blood. After causing him to have a giant nosebleed from perverted thoughts when she teased him about... 'certain matters'...
Once applied the gravity seals could have the level of gravity incresed by the users chakra. It would eat up the chakra increasing the chakra reserves and the weight from the seals. His seals were currently at level 2. Level 1 was regular gravity and level 2 was twice that. basically everytime a level increased it would double the weight. Not immedialy, just over an hour.
At the end of his day kyu had ended up teaching him one ninjustu an evening. maybe two if he got it very fast. He had also learned from kyu that if he learned enough chakra control and could use alot of Katon jutsus and use them efficiently he would have a complete control over the element. He would also have to create one of his own to seal the deal. Meaning he could control fire in all forms without seals, just concentration. and even that would get easier after a while. Naruto had learned of the Kage Bushin special ability to return information from whenever they were destroyed. He used this to speed up his jutsu training, and his taijutsu, learning how to use differant styles of taijustsu. He learnt Taijustsu in his own time. making up his own style from others. Having Kyu give advice on it as she watched.
Kyu had said after Katon would come Raiton. And that would take more chakra control but the same amount of raiton jutsus. and so on with Suiton needing the most chakra control. Followed by Doton then Fuiton.
So far he had learned 28 Katon jutsus and was in the middle of creating his own. Katon: Kaenken. Basically it was a blade made of fire that was an extended part of his arm. he had the Blade and could hold it for a minute. Unfortunately it after a minute started burning him. He basically needed more chakra control.
After his day of physical training he would experiance. When he was asleep. Lesson with kyu on Tactics and logical thinking. Giving him ideas that wernt charge in and attack.
Naruto turned back to Haku.
"Haku, Is there anyway to burn your ice mirrors down to just water then steam even?" Haku shook his head.
"No I'm sorry, that would need fire at an unbelievable high tempreture. About as hot as magma." He explained
Naruto whistled. "Sure sound hot... Sounds as hot as foxfire if i think about it... Demon foxfire." He grinned. "Haku could you put up a Ice mirror please?"
Haku shrugged. "Okay." He formed one. "Fire away!"
Naruto smirked. "Oh I will." His eyes turned a scarlet colour and a ball of roaring blue edging on white flames appeared in his hand. He turned to the mirror and charged.
"HYYYAAAAAAAARRRRRRRR" He roared and he plunged his hand into the mirror shattering and melting it on impact. It collopsed and Naruto stared at his hand in wonder. His eyes returned to their normal shade. He smiled
"Awesome!" he shouted out earned a grin from his companions.
"Well it dosent look like I'll be able to beat you easily now. But I still will." Haku smirked. Knowing just what buttons to push for a rematch.
"Your on Haku. And your going down!" He assumed a ready position, Haku copied. They stared each other off when Haku made a move. "Hyoton: Aisuri Rendan" (Ice needle barrage) Hundreds of thin cold objects flew at Naruto. He merely made a seal and said "Gravity Kai" And disappeared into the trees.
Haku looked around trying to sense Naruto. But he was an expert on sneakiness. I mean he was a pro at escaping the anbu and jounin after pranks and evading the villagers when they felt like beating him to near death.
Haku continued to look around when he saw Naruto run at him from the forest floor. he was charging up a small fire ball. Haku prepared to attack him when all of a sudden hundreds of clones jumped down from the trees wth kunai, shuriken or prepared katon jutsus. They were all grinning. "SUPRISE" they all shouted out down to him. Some clones had fire whips. While others where spiting out fire in all shapes and sizes.
Haku immediately started to dispatch the clones one by one with senbon and Hyoton. He managed to avoid most of the attack but not all. some would catch him and nick his arms and legs and some jutsus burned him but he removed them all. He unfortunately forgot about the first Naruto. and of course was punched in the face by a fire ball. Knocking him out.
Naruto was panting from the jutsu overuse. Loads of clones and them making jutsus and then the fire ball in his hand.
"That was called Katon: Atsuken (Hot Fist) By the way Haku." Naruto called over to him then he collapsed. 'Yes I beat Haku' he thought gleefully.
He was lying on the floor panting when he heard Zabuza come over.
"Nice fight Naruto. You finaly won one" He grinned beneath the bandages and walked over Haku.
Kakashi And Team 7
Just as Naruto and Haku's fight was finishing up. Kakashi was questioning Tazuna why 'The Demon Brothers' were after him.
"Well the thing is you see..." Tazuna was looking at Kakashi nervously. "The wave village right... Its super poor... Its like that cos of a thug called Gato... He's killed our town hero and is trying to kill me... Because of the bridge you see... The bridge is our last hope to be free. Gato is going to hire men to kill me... And of course my daughter will hate konoha Shinobi for abandoning me... and my grandson Inari will cry out... Mummy. Mummy... Where is granddad??" He continued and kakashi sighed.
"Fine we will help, Only if my team wants to." He looked to them. "Well guys?"
"Hell Yeah! We'll help!" Kiba Shouted out. Sakura looked unsure. Sasuke looked at Kiba distastefully.
"Be quiet Kiba. No one cares what you think." he sneered at him. Kakashi looked at him with disapointment.
"Sasuke, I expect you to think about the rest of your team considerately.
"Whatever. Dobe" He smirked and walked on.
"SHUT UP! Im not a dobe. That the Demon Naruto remember." Kakashi's eye hardened at those words.
"Who told you to call him that?" He asked outraged.
"One of the academy teachers. He said he was the Demon who struck out again and killed another innocent person. He said we should called him that." Sakura responded for Kiba. Kakashi processed this information. 'Innocent life? pppft. Yeah right. He was a traitor. Anyway i need to stop this habit.'
"Do not call him that. He is not a Demon, he is a Hero in his own right."
Tazuna watched this display curiously.
"Who is this Demon?" he asked wondering.
Kakashi sighed again (Does it lot dont he, lazy buggar)
"He is a boy named Uzumaki Naruto. He is the same age as these guys. He was also in their academy class. He failed the shinobi test and was tricked by his chuunin sensei Mizuki to steal an important scroll for him. Naruto did so and when Mizuki betrayed him NAruto managed to defeat and kill him. He was exiled for this 'Evil' deed. When actualy he was saving us for something. There is also something else but i cannot speak about it"
Kakashi finished his speech and walked ahead, Leaving a baffled Tazuna and team.
