A/N: I really enjoyed this chapter! I don't know why, but I had a lot of fun writing this! I mean I stayed up until 3 am to write it so yeah...that's passion of a writer right there. So, now, story time. But first...

Naruto: raindropdays does not own any of the Naruto characters, or the plot line or Naruto in general. She does own her own characters Fuku, Shinji, Enji and Naoko. good?

A/N: very. Now on with the show!

Naruto stared at the person in front of him. All day he had had this feeling that someone was following him. And here they were, front and center. He gave one of his notorious smirks and crossed his arms over his chest. "Yeah, that's right, I'm Uzumaki. Why? Gotta problem with that?" he asked, cocky as usual.

The boy in front of him clicked his tongue impatiently. "How annoying..."

Naruto caught what he said and just like that, his cool façade disappeared. "What did you just say?" he asked angrily. The boy looked at him and smirked, obviously pleased at how easy it was to provoke the blond. He then turned and without another word began to leave.

"Hey! Get back here! Who are you?" shouted Naruto towards the boy's back. He waited patiently as the boy turned to face him, but only slightly.

"You don't need to know who I am," he replied curtly, "And it's not important that I know who you are either." The boy turned and continued walking. "I thought you were worth my time, but I was unusually wrong," he said over his shoulder.

"Hey! Say that again!" shouted Naruto angrily, but the figure continued walking, not at all phased by Naruto's words. "Damn it. Who is he?" muttered Naruto under his breath once the boy had turned the corner.

"Hey! Don't you have better things to worry about?" shouted someone from behind Naruto.

"I don't think its any of your business what I have to worry abou—" shouted Naruto as he turned to face who had just spoken to him. He stopped when he saw who it was. It was a thug about six foot, two. Huge, with a grin half the size of his huge face and as stupid as a rat. Naruto stared at him with disgusted disbelief. "Who are you?" he asked, lacking all traces of any type of respect.

"The name's Fuku," he replied, still grinning his stupid smile, "And you're the new kid with the attitude, right? Uzumaki." He spat as he said Naruto's name. Naruto stared back at him, the disgust in his face increasing.

"Yeah, that's me, Uzumaki Naruto," replied Naruto, toughly. "So you're Fuku," he said after a moment. "I imagined you being a lot more...I don't know," he said as he scratched his head and pretended to be thinking of the word. "Just all around better," he finally settled on.

Fuku lost his temper quickly as he turned on Naruto. "What was that brat?" he shouted at Naruto angrily, "You know I won't take pity on you just because you're a little kid!" Naruto snorted.

"I'm not that little..." he replied half under his breath, half to Fuku, "I could take you any day any time." Fuku stepped back before glancing at the clock that stood on highest tower of the school. It was almost time.

"You'll be sorry in a minute," said Fuku, suddenly regaining his calm, "You can bet on that." Naruto merely snorted again.

"Yeah right," he turned away for a moment and began to walk away.

"Are you running from me?" shouted Fuku from behind him. Naruto stopped dead in his tracks.

"Run away? From a wimp like you? Consider it a favor," said Naruto quietly.

"Haha, he talks big but I think he's just scared," a girl with a high pitched voice laughed from behind Naruto.

"Agreed," came a raspy voice.

"Heh heh, don't waste your time Fuku, its not worth it on a whelp like this," a third voice chimed in. Naruto spun around to see what the source of these voices were. He came face to face to what was apparently Fuku's gang.

The first voice must have belonged to the only female of the group. She was wearing the traditional Mikoto High School uniform just like all of the other girls only the skirt was longer and worn towards the bottom; a classic sign that she was a 'gang-chick'. Naruto had seen far too many of them back home. She had light brown hair and green eyes that lit up like a cat's when she sneered. She let out another high pitched laugh when she saw Naruto's eyes fall on her and placed her hands behind her back. "Please, Shinji, you could take him, with your arms tied behind your head and a blindfold on," she laughed harshly.

The one who answered was the guy with the raspy voice. He was standing slightly behind Fuku and off to the left. He was crouched over and was wearing an ancient Japanese mask that was permanently modeled in a frown. In his left hand he held a switch blade that was at the moment closed. He laughed similar to the girl and seemed to sway back and forth. "Naoko, don't insult me like that," he said in his raspy voice.

The third one laughed out loud. He was standing the closest to Fuku and was nearest to him in size. He looked normal except for the fact that he bore the scars of a gang war on his cheeks and left arm. "Stop fighting you two," he boomed, "We have an enemy right in front of us."

"Please," said the one named Naoko, "he doesn't even need to take all of us. He could fight just one of us and whoever it was would destroy him in a heartbeat."

The third one rolled his eyes. "He could even fight you Naoko and lose." Naoko shot him an angry look.

"I can fight Enji," she shot at him. The third one, Enji, rolled his eyes and returned his gaze to Naruto who was now facing the four of them with a wide smile. "Hey, why you smiling boy?" he shouted.

"Maybe, he's happy to finally die..." hissed Shinji from his crouching position. Fuku smiled at this.

"Is that it boy? Are you ready to die?" he asked Naruto. Naruto shook his head, eyes closed and still smiling.

"I'm just so happy," he said. He opened his eyes and stared Fuku in the eye, "I'm just so happy to fight you!" He swung his bag over to his left shoulder and placed his right hand in his pocket. "Are you ready to lose?"

At first Sakura didn't know what was going on. She heard yelling and commotion from outside. She had stayed behind after class to speak with Kakashi and now their entire meeting had been cut short by this noise from outside. It was only a moment later that there was a knock on the door.

"Come in," called Kakashi from his desk. There was no way that he was going to actually get up to answer the door. The door swung open slowly to reveal upperclassman Hyuga Neji leaning over the doorway.

"Sensei," he said briskly. Kakashi nodded to him.

"And to what do I owe this visit from my former student?" asked Kakashi putting down the book he had been sneaking peaks at while he was supposed to be meeting with Sakura.

Neji took two short steps into the room before giving his message to Kakashi. "There appears to be a fight on the front lawn," he said shortly. Kakashi let out a long tired sigh.

"Another?" he asked rhetorically. Neji didn't answer. Kakashi got to his feet and began to make his way to the door.

"Alright, I'm sorry Miss Haruno but we will have to continue our meeting some other time." Sakura got to her feet as well and proceeded to follow her teacher out.

"Right, I understand Sensei," she replied but Kakashi was already gone, down the hall to stop the fight. Sakura was making her way across the room as she caught Neji staring at her. It was only for a brief moment but she could be sure he was. When she refocused her eyes again he had already turned and was leaving the room. Sakura followed him out and onto the front lawn where she lost him in the sea of people, all of which were yelling "fight, fight, fight!"

Sakura shook her head, disgusted by the atmosphere. This was the one thing she had not been able to get used to since she had moved here. The constant fighting and gangs. She turned around looking for the source of the chaos and 'fighters'. She found the spot where the crowd seemed to be focused on and made her way towards it. As she got closer she ran into Ino.

"Sakura!" exclaimed Ino as she grabbed her friend.

"What is it?" asked Sakura, startled. Ino looked Sakura in the eye and answered.

"You won't believe who's fighting," replied Ino. She didn't wait for Sakura to guess or respond, "Its Uzumaki!" Sakura stared back at her friend blankly for a moment before pushing her way through the crowd to see for herself. Ino followed behind her and they both ran into their teacher Kakashi who was standing next to what seemed to be a very angry Neji.

Sakura glanced over her shoulder towards the fight and saw that what Ino had said was indeed correct. There was Naruto, up against a gang, the leader had a bokken pulled and swung over his shoulder and was huge, but it was Naruto who looked intimidating with his cool attitude, and hands driven down into his pockets.

Naruto glanced from his left to his right, scanning the large crowd that just seemed to appear out of nowhere. He then let out a small laugh. "Listen," he whispered, "Do you really want me to beat you so badly, in front of all these people?"

Once again, Fuku's short fuse exploded as he shouted back at Naruto. "You're going to pay for your stuck up attitude boy!"

"Kakashi-sensei!" shouted Sakura as she turned to Kakashi, "Aren't you going to stop them?"

Kakashi had one hand covering his mouth; he didn't seem to be concerned at all. "Watch," was all he said.

"How can you just watch?" demanded Sakura, her eyes full of concern. But Neji silenced her.

"Watch and see what happens," he said, his eyes never leaving the soon to be brawl. "Let's see what Uzumaki is made of." Sakura stopped talking and returned to the battle which was now taking a turn for the action.

"Listen," said Naruto, who was now feigning boredom by 'yawning', "I'm not a fan of talk, so can we hurry up and get this show on the road?" Fuku's temper snapped at this.

"In that case, prepare to die!" he shouted as he swung his bokken from over his shoulder and towards Naruto. Naruto easily dodged the blow moving so that he was next to Fuku instead of facing him.

"You are way too slow," he sneered, as he kicked Fuku hard in the ribs. Fuku staggered backwards, swinging his sword back and forth, missing the blond by inches.

"You will pay for your smart mouth!" he shouted angrily. Naruto feigned another yawn as he dodged Fuku's swings. Fuku swung again and again leaving a predictable plan of attack to which Naruto quickly took advantage of. As Fuku's next swing ended Naruto took he chance at an opening landing a large punch on Fuku, straight in the gut. Fuku fell backwards and onto his butt as Naruto laughed.

"Well?" he asked, provoking the once proud gang leader. Fuku attempted to get to his feet, using his bokken as a cane but he fell again. He then turned to Shinji and Enji who immediately understood his silent command. Both leapt into action but neither were a match for Naruto.

Shinji, who fought with knife was quickly defeat as Naruto tripped him and then slapped his knife from his hand leaving him completely open for a blow to the ribs. Shinji staggered back a way before hitting the ground hard, landing just a few feet from his fallen weapon.

Enji on the other hand fought with his hands more and didn't rely on any weapon to which Naruto complimented him for. "A weapon just proves how weak you really are," replied Naruto as he blocked one of Enji's punches. Enji tried to kick Naruto but Naruto dodged it and followed up with a kick of his own which missed his mark by mere centimeters. Enji thought he had an opening but he realized he had merely been fooled as Naruto landed a punch right between his eyes. Enji stumbled back and into a wall, clutching his face. Naruto grinned and then turned to Naoko.

"This is lame," he said placing his hands behind his head and stepping back, "Fighting a girl is so cheap." Naoko's face immediately turned to rage as she pulled a switchblade similar to Shinji's from her skirt and came at Naruto.

"You want to see cheap?" she shouted as she neared him, "Don't judge me!" But Naruto was quick to finish her moves off as well. As she neared him, he grabbed her wrist taking a small step back and bent it backwards to she dropped the knife and then used her arm as a lever to throw her towards her fallen comrades. She landed on top of Fuku, clutching her wrist in pain.

Naruto took one look at his fallen opponents, then turned on his heel and begin walking towards the exit. People, students and teachers alike quickly moved aside and out of his path as he made his way, no one dared to make eye contact with him but they all stared.

Sakura was among those who stared, with eyes full of amazement, but in a bad way. Ino was just as shocked as she stood near Sakura. Neji still seemed to be upset as were Shikamaru and Kiba. They were definitely annoyed with this guy. On the other hand, Hinata seemed to be worried as she watched Naruto walk out. He never looked back, not so much as a glance, a flicker of the eyes. He just continued walking with a smug smirk painted on his face. He had to admit he was having fun.

Besides the endless crowd of people, that was now being cleared out by the administrative forces there was one other person watching. He was the one from earlier, the one who had approached Uzumaki Naruto seconds before his fight had broken out. He was crouched over the fence up above the scene looking down with a look of interest on his face. Uzumaki Naruto had managed to do a number of things on his first day at Mikoto High School. 1) He had managed to tick off and make mortal enemies with a stubborn girl named Haruno Sakura 2) He had made a reputation as a tough fighter who could take out an entire gang single handedly...and 3) He had caught the interest of Uchiha Sasuke.

A/N: So like I said before, I enjoyed this chapter a lot! Maybe it's because Sasuke came out...hmm. Anyway! On a minor note I'd like to point out the music I listened to while I worked on this chapter. For writing it I listened to Broken Youth (6th Naruto shippuuden ending) and for editing I listened to Blue Bird (3rd Naruto shippuuden opening). I'd recommend both songs highly and yeah...sorry, just sharing my inspiration! Also, I tried my best to edit this chapter for grammer and spelling mistakes because I usually skip that process...so umm, yeah...anyway, I'll see everyone in chapter seven!

Naruto: will I be a conceited jerk like Sasuke again?

A/N: uhhh, maybe?

Naruto: ...

A/N: so anyway, the first fight is over so see what happens next! Review please and till next time!
