A/N:Sorry that this chapter took a while on getting here but school has been slowing my progress with my writting lately (Homework tends to do that). This chapter is a little short compared to the others. It like 1900 words long (A little too short for my taste but I will try to make up for it on the next chapter)

Well I hope you enjoy chapter 7


Naruto was on his bed sleeping peacefully, the boy was covered in a blanket as he slept and Arashi watched over him. Arashi reflected over what happened in the day, Naruto learning his first kinesis, Naruto pulling him to eat ramen, he and Naruto were both attacked by a crazy ninja and then that one ANBU's behavior

Arashi entertained the thought of going to the Hokage tower and demanding an explanation from the old man but he refrained from doing so. He was sure that the Hokage would not take kindly to that.

He also needed to be near Naruto in case he was attacked again, he knew that there was almost no chance of someone attacking Naruto but he preferred to be absolutely sure.

Arashi then felt like a light bulb light up on his brain as he got an idea, he moved his hand and faced Naruto and slowly manipulated the photons in the room. Arashi looked as Naruto's form seemed to disappear and it seemed like wasn't even there.

'Still not enough' Arashi knew that people would be able to tell that Naruto was there if they were close enough they would hear him thanks the sound of his breathing ''Psionic Barrier'' mumbled Arashi as a barrier surrounded Naruto's bed, Arashi once again manipulated light and saw as the barrier seemed to disappear but the psionic knew that his barrier was still there and anyone who attacked Naruto would be hard pressed to break the barrier.

Once he was satisfied with the protection Arashi left Naruto's apartment and walked through the streets of Konoha at night, his eyes were alternating between electric blue and jet black as he remembered what man who had attacked Naruto had told him.

The Hokage had a LOT to explain…


Sarutobi Hiruzen looked at the pile of now complete paperwork in complete satisfaction, he was almost finished for the day before he could go home. He still needed to get the report from the ANBU he had sent to look at Arashi and Naruto. He wasn't as suspicious of Arashi as he was before but he still wanted to know why Arashi was training Naruto.

Hiruzen heard his secretary outside the door, she seemed to be talking to someone and was telling the person that 'Hokage-sama was busy'. Hiruzen rose an eyebrow when he heard the secretary suddenly stop talking and then she spoke in a stuttering voice that was filled with fear

''G-g-g-go a-ahead'' Hiruzen rose an eyebrow and was then surprised when the door opened to reveal the very person he had been thinking about. Arashi walked through the doorstep and closed the door with slightly more force than necessary. Hiruzen rose an eyebrow and noticed that Arashi's eyes were shadowed by his hair in such a way that they were unnoticeable.

''Hokage-sama'' Arashi voice betrayed no emotion

''What may I help you with Arashi-san?'' asked Hiruzen with a curious tone that masked his true emotions

''Answers'' Hiruzen raised an eyebrow

''What type of answers?'' at this Arashi snapped

''As in the type of answers that can justify why a SIX year old CHILD is being hated by his village to the point that they attack him with the intent to KILL'' Hiruzen raised both his eyebrows in alarm as he saw the look in Arashi's eyes. They were filled with rage and anger, they were not only demanding answers but they also seemed to asking a silent question. A question that made Hiruzen realize that Arashi's care for Naruto was genuine in every way

'Give one good reason as to why I shouldn't leave and take Naruto with me'

Hiruzen remained silent for a few seconds before he spoke again with a tone that made Arashi realized how tired the old man really was.

''I guess I could tell you why but promise me one thing'' Arashi raised an eyebrow ''What I'm going to tell you is an S-rank secret meaning that if you tell anyone you will be hunted down and killed. Do you understand?'' Arashi nodded

''I won't tell anybody''Arashi said ''I can promise you that''

''Very well'' Hiruzen sighed and he started speaking

''It all started six years ago when our village was attacked'' Arashi raised an eyebrow ''A giant demon known as Kyubi no Kitsune attacked the village, the demon was strong enough to destroy mountains and create massive tidal waves with a single swipe of its tails'' Arashi would have normally been amazed at this but he was too busy trying to piece together what Naruto had to do with this ''The ninja of our village fought valiantly but none of them could compete with the demon''

'If none of them could compete then how was the demon stopped' thought Arashi

''It wasn't until my successor, the Fourth Hokage faced the Kyubi in mortal combat'' Arashi had to admire the Fourth's bravery ''the official version of this story is that the Fourth killed the demon at the cost of his own life in order to save the village''

''But that isn't the true story, right?'' said Arashi

''You are right Arashi-san'' confirmed Hiruzen ''the Fourth Hokage used a forbidden technique to call forth the Shinigami'' Arashi's jaw dropped

''The Fourth summoned the freaking death god himself!'' Arashi had heard stories of the Shinigami and most stories of men who summoned the Shinigami ended up in a similar fashion.

''The Fourth sealed the Kyubi inside a baby's body and then his soul was consumed by the Shinigami as payment for his services'' Hiruzen said ''He told me to take care of that baby and to make sure that he was treated as a hero'' Arashi's eyes widened as he connected the dots

''That baby is Naruto, isn't it?'' Hiruzen nodded and Arashi looked down in anger

''Guess the whole 'treating him like a hero' didn't go as it should'' Arashi said ''They blame him for everything that happened six years ago and think that if they kill Naruto they will also kill the Kyubi but I assume that isn't what will happen if Naruto is killed, right?'' Hiruzen looked at Arashi with surprise

''How did you know that?'' he asked and Arashi looked at Hiruzen with a dark look

''If it were that easy Naruto would have been killed a long time ago'' said Arashi ''Ninja can be really heartless and wouldn't have hesitated to kill a baby if it would also end up indirectly killing the monster that attacked their village'' Hiruzen closed his eyes as he realized with a heavy heart that Arashi was right, if Naruto's death had meant the death of the Kyubi then not even he could have stopped Naruto from getting killed.

''Naruto's death would only cause the Kyubi to disappear for a few years'' said Hiruzen ''the Kyubi would regenerate in a few years as it's a being made entirely out of chakra'' Arashi winced at that description

''Then it's immortal'' Arashi concluded ''Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be transformed''

''And because of that the Kyubi can only be subdued by sealing it into a baby'' Arashi understood why a baby was required, if the Kyubi was sealed inside an adult then the adult in question would most likely explode from being overwhelmed with power but a baby would be able to adapt to the Kyubi's power and survive

''Is the Kyubi the reason why Naruto cannot use chakra?'' asked Arashi as Hiruzen nodded

''The power of the Kyubi overwhelmed Naruto's chakra system and burned it. The best medics in the village have tried to heal it but they have never had any success in the matter'' Hiruzen looked at Arashi curiously, the psionic seemed angry at Naruto's expense rather than at Naruto himself (Which made sense considering that he was never attacked by the Kyubi)

''That explains why he can't control his power'' muttered Arashi as he remembered the instances were Naruto had a hard time controlling his energy to unlock his Aerokinesis

''Power?'' Arashi's eyes widened as he realized that he spoke outloud ''what do you mean by power?'' Hiruzen's tone was strict and Arashi could feel a slight chakra spike coming from the old man.

''I've been training Naruto for a little bit of time now'' Hiruzen pretended to be surprised ''My techniques work by utilizing the psychic energy from the human brain, when I taught Naruto how to use that energy he ended up manifesting Aerokinesis which is the ability to control the wind'' Hiruzen didn't have to fake surprise now as this time it was completely genuine

''He can control the wind!'' Arashi nodded

''To a degree'' said Arashi ''There are times where he has a hard time controlling the wind like he wants to, he also generates strong gusts of wind when he is feeling strong emotions'' Arashi informed ''Like when he sent his attacker flying with a powerful wind''

''I see'' Hiruzen said ''But weren't you protecting him?'' Hiruzen wondered how Naruto would end up in danger if not only Arashi but also an ANBU that he had positioned to watch him should have helped them

''Naruto was too far away for me to reach him since he had run off and there was also the ANBU that you had sent that didn't even try to help Naruto'' Hiruzen's eyes widened as Arashi dropped the bomb on him

''He didn't help?!'' demanded Hiruzen making Arashi wince

''I have an ability to feel emotions and when I sensed the ANBU's emotions he seemed excited to see Naruto getting killed'' said Arashi ''when Naruto used the gust of wind to save himself the ANBU was actually disappointed and angry at him'' Arashi placed a hand on the side of his head as he sensed Hiruzen's anger, the anger was so strong that it almost seemed uncontrollable and it was unbearable for Arashi to sense it so he did the only thing he could do

He consciously blocked his 'Empathy' ability.

''I see'' Arashi shivered slightly as he realized why the man in front of him was selected as the Third Hokage ''I will make sure there will be… consequences to his actions, or rather lack of'' the young man nodded ''Where is Naruto right now?'' Arashi hummed slightly before responding

''He's on his apartment sleeping soundly. I used my Photokinesis to make it seem like he isn't there and I also put a barrier to shield him in case somebody looks through the illusion'' Hiruzen nodded in appreciation

''What are you going to do?'' Arashi sighed

''I'm going to keep training him'' Arashi paused for a second before continuing ''At first I trained him because I wanted to give him a chance of achieving his dream but now… it has become a necessity in order to survive'' Hiruzen would have flinched if he had been any less controlled

''I can register him for the ninja academy next year'' said Hiruzen ''His Aerokinesis could be masked as some sort of hidden bloodline that allows him control of the wind but prevents him from utilizing conventional ninja techniques'' Arashi nodded with a small smile on his face ''And if he becomes a ninja, the punishment for attacking him would become much more severe'' now Arashi's smile became a grin which would have disturbed any other man

''I guess that's a good option. When does he start?'' Hiruzen smiled

Arashi and Hiruzen continued speaking about Naruto's schooling. Arashi was completely unaware of the hug he was going to receive next morning when he Naruto the good news.


A/N:Timeskip will be next chapter, this means that I will skip Naruto's years through the academy. I also want people to know that Naruto will seem smarter after the timeskip, this is because of his lack of chakra since he will have to compensate heavily if he wants to graduate from the academy (In a similar manner to Rock Lee who had to compensate for his lack of Ninjutsu and Genjutsu with a lot of hard work on his other areas AKA Taijutsu)

I believe that Naruto on the show wasn't stupid but actually quite smart and that the only reason he seems to be stupid is because he had to raise himself and most likely didn't have many people to teach him, he was a slacker at the academy in a similar way to Shikamaru. His personality didn't help in this matter as his happy and cheerful attide made him seem stupid and idiotic.

People never seemed to realize that Naruto didn't lack smarts. He lacked KNOWLEDGE. Naruto is an example of a character who is smart but doesn't have the knowledge to use those smarts and Shikamaru is a character who is incredibly smart but unlike Naruto he HAS the knowledge to use those smarts.

Sorry for my mini rant. I will try to update as soon as possible but it might take a while so please bear with me.

See ya later
