"Normal Talking" 'Thoughts'
"Jutsu and Techniques"
"Non-Human Talking"
"Naru-chan don't be rude. Come say hi" called Kakashi from his spot in the living room. "H-hai let me go change first." Said Naruto. "Nonsense Naru, we're not going out or anything so just come on down." Said Kakashi giving his three students his famous eye-smile.
Naruto went over to the living room slowly while dragging his feet. He sat in the couch opposite to the one Sasuke and Sakura were sitting on. When he was settled down on the couch he leaned over to his dad and asked, "What are they doing here?" Kakashi was quick to reply with a barely noticeable frown on his face "Don't talk about Sasuke and Sakura as if they weren't here Naru. Show some respect, I've told you these things before." Scolded Kakashi. Naruto mumbled a 'sorry' and looked down. "Anyways, now that Naru-chan is here we would like to apologize for not showing up to training today. It was a special occasion as you can see." If you looked really closely you could see a very faint purple on Naruto's eye. "But even if we weren't able to get our very first mission today we could still train. Would you like that?" asked Kakashi. Sasuke and Sakura nodded and of course Naruto had to. "Naru, go get dressed. We are going to be waiting here for you. " Naruto just stood up and went up the stairs.
When Naruto went upstairs Kakashi took time to analyze his students. He knew who they were, he had studied them profoundly but he hadn't really run it over in his head. Sakura Haruno was from a middle class family. She was the daughter of Kizashi and Mebuki Haruno who were both retired shinobi. They had been talented to the point of becoming Jonin but both retired when they learned of Mebuki's pregnancy. They were always the type to think the shinobi life was horrible and Sakura was their way out.
She had a pretty average life and in the shinobi aspect she was a little on the intellectual side. She had potential for being a medic-nin but right now she was just genin level.
And then he had Sasuke Uchiha who by no means was the Last Uchiha. Just the last one in Konoha. No one knew if there were others that left before the massacre and there was also Itachi and Madara, who sensei had told him about. Sasuke Uchiha was the second, now first heir to the Uchiha clan. Son of Fugaku and Mikoto Uchiha and brother of Itachi Uchiha. Great thing were expected of him from the village and for being the 'Last Uchiha' he was showered with praise and that resulted in his arrogance. He was cold, but probably everyone would be after your family massacred by your brother. He had talent but had not unlocked his Sharingan yet to his knowledge.
He was brought back to real life by a bonk on the head. He looked to the source of the rolled-up newspaper and found himself staring at huge cerulean eyes. "That wasn't very nice Naru-chan" he said with a smile. "Well you were staring at our guests and that isn't nice either" Naruto replied. "Can we go now daddy? This is weird." Asked Naruto in a small voice. Kakashi nodded and stood up his full size. Towering over the almost blond. "Let's go then" and he held out his hand as Naruto sighed and took it.
Training Ground 7
Kakashi had ordered them to sit in a small circle in the middle of the clearing and that's exactly what they were doing. "Okay, you three are a team now and as such should know your teams strengths and weaknesses. So you're going to say your strong and weak fields and mention every jutsu you can perform. It's simple really. This information is to only be known by us and no one else. Not even your closest friends or family members in your case Sakura." Explained Kakashi. "How about we begin with you Sasuke?" Sasueke gave a grunt in response.
"My strong areas are Taijutsu and Ninjutsu. I know how to dispel genjutsu but only know the academy basic ones. Apart from the academy basic justsu I know Katon:Gokakyū no jutsu and Katon:Ryūka no jutsu. I would say my Taijutsu is my strongest point." Finished Sasuke. "Are you hiding something Sasuke?" asked Kakashi, Sasuke frowned. "No." he deadpanned. "Alright then, Sakura it's your turn." Said Kakashi.
"Okay, my strong area I would say is Genjutsu. My taiju-" she was cut off by Kakashi throwing a Kunai at Sasuke who deflected it with one of his own. "What is wrong with you?!" roared Sasuke. He was out of breath. That was one of the fastest kunai he had ever seen. That was at least low Jonin speed. "When did you get it?" asked Kakashi. And then he noticed. He had his Sharingan activated with one tomoe wildly spinning in each eye. There was no way out of this one. "The day of the massacre." Replied the raven.
"Hey daddy why does his Sharingan only have one comma when yours has three?" asked a curious Naruto from the sidelines. Sasuke turned his head to Kakashi again. "Explain." He ordered. Kakashi sighed, "Fine, sit down. I'm sorry Sakura you're going to have to go after me." They took their seats again and Kakashi began, "As you know my name is Kakashi Hatake. Elite Jonin as of the day I passed this team. I used to be Anbu Captain- codename Inu. I dropped down to regular Anbu when Naruto was born so I could be with him. I'm known by shinobi from the village and out as the Copy Ninja because I have copied more than a thousand techniques with my Sharingan. (He lifted his Hitai-ate and showed them a completely mature Sharingan) Before you accuse me of anything Sasuke I'll have you know my teammate gave me his Sharingan on his deathbed. Which is a reason for the Uchiha clan disliking me. But I didn't steal it so don't jump to conclusion. Anyways, I can help in your Sharingan training so that's not too bad, ne?"
"Fine." replied the raven as he crossed his arms.
"Now you can go Sakura." Said Kakashi with a small smile.
Sakura looked hesitant fearing something would happen lie last time but went on anyway, "Okay, so as I was saying my strong area is Genjutsu. My ninjutsu and taijutsu is the academy average. My mother taught me how to dispel genjutsu and she taught me a Genjutsu she created which basically is a simple illusion that messes with your hearing." Sakura finished with a small worried look. She knew she wasn't quite on Sasuke's level and that made her a little self-conscious. Luckily it looked like Kakashi could read her perfectly.
"Sakura don't worry you have plenty of potential and I'm going to make sure it's used." Said Kakashi who then turned his head to his so he could look at Naruto. "Okay, Naru-chan it's your turn."
"Um, okay. My strong areas are Ninjutsu and Kenjutsu. I know a little bit of sealing too. My taijutsu isn't that good and I don't know why but low ranked Genjutsu don't even affect me. Ji-san told me it's some sort of bloodline…anyways the jutsu I know is the academy basics and instead of the normal bunshin I know the Kage bunshin. I also know the shunshin and the Kuchiyose no jutsu. I know one elemental jutsu and it is Futōn: Daitoppa. Um, that is it I think…" trailed off the blond boy looking a little self-conscious too.
"Okay, good now let's get on with actual training. Naru you are sparring with Sakura. Sasuke, you're with me." Declared Kakashi.
After a long training session they were all exhausted. Naruto had worked himself to the ground trying to improve his kenjutsu so now Kakashi had to carry him home. Team 7 had each gone their separate ways and now Kakashi was walking home with the small boy on his arms. When he got home he put the blonde on his bed and sat down on the edge. He brushed off a lock of hair on Naruto's face and was surprised to see that lock turn completely blond. 'Damn' he thought. Now Naruto's silver hair-turning blonde had a very blonde lock of hair on his head in addition to the one he already had. 'The seal is fading sensei.' He thought pitifully thinking of how his sensei had planned everything to take care of his son.
Flashback Start
"Sensei, don't you think this is a little over the top?" They were currently in Minato and Kushina's house1 standing in what was to be Naruto's room when he was eventually born. The room itself was a faint orange color with several pieces of furniture painted white. The room was filled with different stuffed animals and the closet was full of different articles of baby clothing and outfits. The room had a perfect view of the Hokage Mountain with the recently added Yondaime on it.
Minato gave a small chuckle while looking down "Of course not Kakashi. Naruto will have a life full of love and I think he's going to like it. Besides, between the money I make as Hokage and the Uzumaki fortune we have more than enough to spoil our little Naru-chan. I want you to look after him Kakashi. If anything ever happens to us-"
"Don't say things like that sensei." interrupted the 17 year-old Anbu.
"I mean it. Jiraiya and Tsunade may be his grandparents on paper but I know if anything happens to us they probably wouldn't be able to become his full time guardians. I trust you Kakashi. As if you were of my own. So, if anything happens to us promise me you'll take care of him." Kakashi could see it clearly. His sensei was as calm as always. Minato knew Kakashi would take care of Naruto. It would tear him apart to see Naruto living by himself or in the care of other people.
"Yes sensei. I'll take care of him in case anything happens to you, which I doubt will happen anyway. You're the two toughest people I know." Replied Kakashi with a small smirk gracing his features.
Flashback End
He didn't know at which point he had brought out of his back pocket the picture that was by Naruto's crib that day but he had. The worn down picture of Minato embracing a clearly pregnant Kushina brought back so many memories. Painful memories. In a way he had moved on from his senseis and his wife's death. But he hadn't forgotten. No. Naruto was a constant reminder of them. He reminded him of Kushina in so many ways. That cute face, nose, lips and smile. The angelic laugh and the personality he only had with those close to him. And he reminded of Minato in so many ways as well. But mainly the eyes even though Naruto's eyes held his mother's shape he had that color that his father had had. That piercing blue that stares right into your soul. And now of course, the blond hair that was beginning to show. Naruto was the perfect mix between his mother and father.
After reminiscing of those times when his sensei had been alive. He carefully changed Naruto into his pajamas and left the room turning off the light. He got into his own bed and fell asleep almost instantly. Thinking of how tomorrow would be a pain. Oh, how right he was.
Hokage Tower 10 a.m.
Outside the Hokage Tower stood team 7 waiting to get their first mission.
"Okay kiddies this is going to be our first misson, now don't expect anything like recovering a scroll from the land stone or killing an A-ranked assassin okay? Expect something less, uh extravagant." Explained Kakashi with a bored expression on his face. D-ranks were a pain in the ass.
"What can we expect then Kakashi-sensei? Asked a curious Sakura.
"Uh, you can expect thing like planting flowers, babysitting, helping in the farms outside Konoha, recovering lost animals and so on…" said Kakashi fully expecting an outburst from his students.
"All those sound really fun anyways…" said Naruto thinking about the cute animals and stuff.
"Yes, let's go in shall we?" Inside the Hokage Tower was the mission briefing room and in the mission briefing room was the Hokage with an assistant of his choice. Who in this case was Iruka. In the room there was also several other chunin doing administrative duty and what not.
"Hokage-sama we're here for our first mission." Declared Kakashi standing lazily in the middle of the room with his students by his side.
"Ah Kakashi, I was expecting you yesterday to give you the fence-painting but that's not available anymore. So today you get to catch Tora who was ran off again. Be careful when you go for her because she seem to be overly grumpy lately." Explained the old man with an amused look on his face. Tora was the bane of every fresh out the academy Genin. Dubbed the 'Demon Cat' by previous generations of Genin. Tora was known for running away from the Daimyō's palace every now and then. No Genin team had ever come back with all their members unharmed.
Kakashi's eye twitched "Tora?" he got a nod in reply. "Fine, hand over the scroll." The D-rank scroll was tossed his way and they were off.
"Scarecrow in position. Over." Said a lazy voice.
"Pinkie in position. Over." Said a nervous voice.
"Whiskers in position. Over." said a voice bubbling with excitement.
"Emo in position. Over." Said a low hateful voice.
"Okay team, target in sight. Move in." commanded the clearly older voice.
Kakashi watched everything from his vantage point. Sasuke had made the first leap for the animal that in turn had leaped away from his open arms and proceeded to scratch the hell out of his face. When the cat turned around ready to escape Sakura put a net around the thing. Tora then clawed open the net and viciously attacked Sakura. With two members down Kakashi suspected they were doomed and he wasn't about to go for the cat himself. But what he wasn't expected was Naruto to walk over to the cat and pick her up with ease stroking her ear with his free hand.
"Naru can you confirm the ribbon on the right ear?" spoke Kakashi into his microphone.
"Yup, it's Tora." replied a cheerful Naruto into the head piece.
To Kakashi the walk towards the Hokage Tower was hilarious. Sasuke and Sakura were glaring at Naruto who came out unharmed and was currently holding the cat while saying things like 'Who's the cutest Kitty' and all that stuff.
"Well team, I can happily say the mission was a success. Now we have to get back to mission room and hand in our report and after that you each get to go home. Expect D-ranks only for maybe the next two weeks as well." He said with a smile. Sasuke glared at him. Sakura did too. Naruto just kept smiling.
After they handed over their mission report they were ready to leave when Hiruzen called out to Kakashi. "Yes Hokage-sama?" questioned Kakashi with an eyebrow raised.
"I have a mission for you. Mizuki was somehow able to steal the forbidden scroll. I need you to retrieve it at no matter what cost. You know what is in there." Commanded the elderly Hokage.
"Yes sir." He turned back to his three students. "Sakura you can go home. Sasuke I have a favor to ask of you. Outside." The three of them headed outside and Sakura jogged away waving her hand.
"What do you need?" questioned Sasuke.
"I need you to walk Naruto home. And just wait with him in our house until I come home. Can you do that for me?" Sasuke looked a little annoyed.
"You want me to babysit him?" he questioned scowling while Naruto pouted, he didn't like the word babysitting seeing how he wasn't a baby.
"You could say that… here have this." He said handing Sasuke a paper, he then went on to ruffle Naruto's hair. "Bye Naru-chan, behave and don't cause Sasuke any trouble."
"Yes daddy." Replied the boy.
Hatake Compound
When they arrived at the Hatake compound Sasuke opened the door with the keys Kakashi had given him. When they were inside Naruto ran to the toilet because he needed to pee. So, Sasuke took the chance to further analyze his surroundings, which he hadn't done when he had been there before. Even though it was a clan compound it was small. The smallest compared to the others in Konoha. It was a cozy place. If you looked at the walls you could see pictures of Naruto and Kakashi, of Naruto surrounded by a disturbing amount of dogs, Naruto in the Hyūga compound. Naruto and what seemed to be the Hokage's grandson and so on. He moved onto the kitchen where you could see plenty of food and on the fridge you could see more pictures, drawings from when Naruto was younger and more things. He went up the stairs to find a hall with several rooms. All the doors were open except one. Sasuke stick his head in the first room and he found a Jutsu library, which was quite common for a ninja family. He continued and passed a bathroom, a study, and a room for storing ninja goods. He finally got to the end of the hall where you were met with three rooms. To his left a room with the door wide open. To his right the room with the closed door. And in front of him a room with the door slightly open.
He decided to push the door in front of him a little further and he could make out a big bed in the middle but it was obviously Kakashi's. It had a bookcase a shelf and a nightstand. It also had a chair in a corner and a few pictures hanging on the walls but nothing too interesting so he went tried to open the room to his right, which he found out was locked.
Curiosity got the best of him and he walked into the only room left. Which was Naruto's. He stepped inside and he looked around. The first thing you noticed was the faint orange color of the room and the markings next to the door frame there was markings of Naruto's height progress which wasn't a lot. There was a bed on a corner of the room that was covered in orange dog stamped covers. The bed had a few stuffed animals on it a frog, a dog and a fox. You could also see a bookcase in the room filled with what seemed like children's books, regular books and scrolls. There was a closet and a box on a corner that held more stuffed animals and toys, which Naruto probably used less and less there was also a poster of ramen on the wall and flowers on the frame of the big window. The nightstand next to the bed held a lamp and two pictures. One was of Kakashi holding a maybe 3 year-old Naruto. And the other one was of a blond woman with blue eyes and two whisker like marks on her face. Obviously that was his mother. While he was shamelessly staring at the picture a door to his left which he hadn't noticed before opened and out came Naruto. He walked over to Sasuke and gently took the picture out of his hands and set it down on the nightstand again. "That was my mom, I never got to meet her. Daddy says she died right after I was born. I wish I could have met her." He finished with a small sigh. Naruto talking about his mom made him remember his and that made him a mixture of sad and angry. "Whatever brat. Take your bath while I make dinner." He said as he walked out of the room leaving a sad Naruto standing there.
A few minutes later he went up to find the brat taking a nap in his pajamas covered by a small orange blanket. It was in general really cute. 'Wait, what? No! Not cute.' He sighed and went over to the bed and ripped the blanked off. Just one blue eye was opened and the child muttered a 'What' at the raven. "Food's ready come downstairs." Said Sasuke. The whiskered boy jumped off the bed with excitement and asked, "What type of ramen did'ya make?"
"You'll see." He replied with a smirk.
A few seconds later Naruto was seated in the table glaring at the raven who was standing a few feet over. "What is this?" he asked in a small voice while poking the food with a fork. "Those are called vegetables." Replied the raven. "Ew, I don't wanna eat that." Said Naruto pushing the plate away.
"You are going to eat it though."
"Says who?"
"Says me."
"And who are you to tell me what to do? I'm not eating it. It looks gross."
"I can tell you what do to because I'm older than you, taller than you and stronger than you. I'm smarter too. Oh, and your dad left me in charge as well." Said the raven with a smirk while Naruto pouted. "But it won't taste good." Said Naruto in a small voice.
"Just eat it, you're way to small anyway."
"I'm not small." Declared Naruto puffing his cheeks out. It was annoying to be called small. After being the smallest in his old class too it was getting annoying.
"Yes you are. You look 6 not 9. So eat."
After Naruto was done eating Sasuke sent him to brush his teeth and then to go sleep. So when Kakashi arrived later he saw Sasuke asleep on the couch and when he went upstairs he saw Naruto sleeping peacefully.
The house I'm talking about is the one in the Road To Ninja movie. (1)
