What's up? Chapter time! Anyway thanks for the correction. From now on it will be nii-san and chan, and Zanbatou. To answer a few things...

brown phantom: Gee thanks dude, It was actually an OC I received from Leaf Ranger. I'm a huge fan of your work by the way.

Wyrtha: That's a valid point but to me, god-like is someone who can take on jonin that don't hold back (Zabuza) without getting a single scratch, never makes a mistake, never loses an argument, etc, etc. So it's really like "perfect-like" or something. Remember Kakashi was a jonin/former ANBU and almost died fighting Zabuza if it wasn't for Naruto.

Oh by the way, As of now I have 82 reviews and if I reach 100 I'll give everyone a special treat with omakes and a lost chapter or two after the official chapter.

Now that that's out of the way...HAJIME!

Chapter 9: They're are backup?

Naruto was currently sitting on a worn out couch with Hinata leaning her head on his shoulder as she slept. Shino was sitting nearby staring out into space, as if in deep thought. The blonde took a quick glance at his teammates. He couldn't believe they stuck by him after he told him about his condition.

Flashback

Naruto had just entered Tazuna's house behind Kurenai and Tazuna with the rest of his team in tow. He looked around to see a long black, almost dark blue haired, woman washing dishes with her back facing them. She was wearing a pink t-shirt and a long pink skirt with an apron over it.

"Tsunami-chan I'm back." the said woman turned around and gave a delighted smile.

"Tou-san! I'm glad your okay." She said as she walked up to him and gave him hug, which he gladly returned. The bridge builder turned his head and gestured at the leaf shinobi.

"These brave ninjas saved me twice, with them around I'll be able to finish the bridge in no time." he said. She politely bowed and said.

"Thank you so much I-" she was cut off when she saw a small boy in a beige collared shirt and dark green overalls walk down the nearby hallway. He also had a blue striped fisherman's hat on. (Dont know the type)

"Who are these people Okaa-san?" the little boy asked.

"Oh, these are the brave ninjas are here to protect your grandfather while he completes the bridge." the boy merely shrugged his shoulders.

"Whatever, they're just gonna die." he said with almost no emotion as he went back up the hall and went into his room. Tsunami sighed and turned to the shinobi

"I'm so sorry, that was my son Inari, there was a little..."incident" a few years ago and its what made him that way. It still a touchy subject so try and let it be. Dinner's almost done, would you like to join?" Team 8 nodded and sat down and the dinner table. It was normal aside from Inari giving the leaf ninja weird looks. Once supper was over Kurenai turned to her team

"It's getting late so training will start first thing tomorrow. Rest up." she ordered as Tsunami directed her to her room. Meanwhile Naruto was having a chat inside his head.

"Do you really think I should? They might-" "They might what? Reject you after all you three have been through? I know for a fact that both the Hyuga and Aburame clans don't see you as a demon so they haven't been brainwashed. "I know...its just that they're all I have except for you, Kasumi nii-chan., Iruka, and Ichirakus...(Sigh)...alright I'll tell them." He finished the conversation in his head and looked at Hinata and Shino.

"Uh, Hey, can I talk to you both in private."

"Sure Naru-kun." Hinata said with Shino nodding. Naruto lead them to one of the rooms and closed the doors. As soon as they entered he took out a sheet of paper and place it on the wall. He made a hand sign and the seal briefly glowed neon blue and returned to its original condition. He then turned around to face his teammates, who both saw the distraught look on his face.

"Look guys, there something I got to tell you."

"What is it Naruto-san?" Shino said, his voice laced with concern.

"(Sigh)...You know the story about the Kyuubi no Kitsune right?" they both nodded.

"Yes, the Yondaime killed it at the cost of his own life." the bug user said, not sure where this was going. Naruto looked down and said.

"No that isn't true, while the Yondaime was strong, even he couldn't kill a demon." the clan heirs were stunned at hearing that. "He had to seal it within something...or rather someone." their eyes widened as they were putting the pieces together.

"T-T-then that means" Hinata stuttered with Naruto nodding.

"Yes, the fox attacked the village on October 10, my birth date, so the Yondaime sealed it within me." he said as he lifted up his shirt and saw nothing. But when Naruto pushed a little bit of chakra through his body, a very complex tattoo-like image appeared on his stomach. "And not just anyone, not wanting a family to live with the burden, he sealed it within his only son."

...

...

Naruto wasn't sure what to expect; fear, hatred, disgust, but what he didn't' expect was to Hinata to walk up to him and enravel him in a hug with Shino placing a hand on his shoulder.

"Naru-kun we don't care about that. Your still our friend."

"I concur. Despite your condition, we know full well your no demon." Shino said, as no demon would do anything Naruto has done for as long as he knew him. Naruto was speechless, it was only a few words, but they meant so much to him.

"Y-Y-Y-You accept m-m-me." he stuttered out.

"Of course Naru-kun, what did you think was going to happen." Naruto noticeably flinched.

"Well, the Yondaime's dying wish was for his child to be seen as a hero, but that wasn't the case. The moment the Sandaime announced I was a jinchuuriki, a human sacrifice, the whole village called for my death." the two gasped at that. The death of an infant?

"Over the course of my life, a majority of the village made my life miserable, stores wouldn't let my buy anything or charged me three-times the amount of something in poor condition. I was kicked out of the orphanage when I was four and had to be given an apartment in which I had to pay the bills, which the land lord overcharged. I made it thanks to Oji-san giving me an allowance. When I entered the academy the instructors would sabotage my training or ignore me completely. They rigged my tests every time, hence why I was the dobe. And the worst part when I was younger, the village would form mobs and beat me within an inch of my life, it was always worse on my birthday." By now Hinata was in tears and Shino had his bugs furiously swarm all over his body but Naruto still continued.

"The reason I didn't tell you before was because you were all I had aside from a few others and if you rejected me...I might have done something drastic." he said with tears streaming down his cheeks. Hinata, and now Shino had hugged him as tight as they could.

"Well you don't have worry about that Naruto. We'll still always see you as you." Shino said as he dropped the suffix, he felt too close to him now to use a formality like that. After what seemed like an hour, Naruto broke away from the hug and wiped his tears away.

"Thank you so much, both of you." they all smiled and headed back out side.

Naruto was still sitting on the couch as he recalled what happened merely an hour ago. He heard the front door click open. He glanced at the direction of the noise to see two people he really didn't want to see...

Sasuke and Sakura.

"Hmph, I knew you and your pathetic team wouldn't be enough to handle a little mission." the emo said arrogantly.

"Yeah! You and those freaks can't do anything right!" his trusty follower screeched. If it wasn't for Hinata sleeping soundly and Shino placing a hand on his shoulder, Naruto would have already been at their throats.

"Alright that's enough. Were here to provide back up, not start a fight." Kakashi said as he and Kiba walked through the door as well with Akamaru atop his head. Sasuke merely "Hn"ed and Sakura drooled over how cool her "Sasuke-kun" was. By now Hinata had woken up to see the two idiots, much to her dismay, but was a little happy to see Kiba once more. The three rose from there seats.

"It's not that I don't doubt your abilities Kakashi-sensei, but why did they send a genin team as back up." Naruto asked. Granted, they themselves were a genin team that easily defeated two chunin, but with the threat of other jonin and Gato's overall thug base, he was expecting a jonin or even ANBU. The one-eyed man sighed.

"The council in there "infinite wisdom" believed that Sasuke was more than enough to handle an A-rank mission by himself, and with me by his side we could be unstoppable." he said with sarcasm, but Sasuke and Sakura didn't seem to notice it and smirked. After hearing all the commotion, Kurenai and Tsunami finally exited their rooms and entered the living room. The genjutsu mistress took one glance at Team 7.

"They're are backup?" she deadpanned, causing her team and Kiba to chuckle, Kakashi and Tsunami to sweat drop, and the banshee and emo to growl. He was about to arrogantly proclaim that she should watch her mouth in front of an elite until Kakashi gave his shoulder a tight squeeze.

"I believe it's getting late, are there enough rooms for us?" Kakashi asked. Tsuanami nodded

"There should be, if not two of you will have to share." Sakura immediately latched on to Sasuke at hearing that. He prayed to whatever Kami out there he wouldn't be raped. The former ANBU looked at his students.

"You three get some rest. Me and Kurenai need to discuss a few things." reluctantly they agreed and let Tsunami lead them.

"Same goes for you." Kurenai said to her students. They too agreed and headed off to their rooms. Once the final door closed the two jonin sat down at the dining table.

"So how has your team doing?" Kakashi asked pulling out a small flask of sake. Kurenai smiled proudly and said.

"Great, with them being friends, there teamwork is excellent along with their independent skills."

"You know I've seen Hinata is more confident but she still wears that coat, why's that?"

"Well she first wore it because she was self conscious about her body but now she wears it so other boys don't stare at her since she has developed a little early." Kurenai said. It was a bit of a surprise that Naruto suggested it but after hearing when the two went out on a date without the coat every boy his age kept staring at her assets, making her feel uncomfortable she wholeheartedly agreed. The one-eyed jonin took a sip of the sake and sighed.

"Well my team isn't even close to being great. Kiba is the only one who shows any decent qualities of a ninja but is still headstrong. Sakura does absolutely nothing at all except stare at her precious "Sasuke-kun" during practice with no desire whatsoever to learn anything. She's a worse case scenario fangirl. Sasuke...don't even get me started with Sasuke. He frequently demands I devote all of my time to train him and still seeks guidance from others in order to kill his brother. No doubt he'll abandon the village for more power once he bleeds Konoha dry." Kurenai scowled.

"And you let them get away with this?"

"I have no choice, I've tried to report this to the Hokage but he is always halted by the council into doing no more than a warning. They gotten way to much power since sensei died. Thankfully, since were out on a mission he has no choice but to answer to me." he said smirking at the end. Now was the perfect time to give him a good case of humility. Kurenai shook her head at seeing how much the brat was spoiled.

"Man, I worry about that kid. Seeing his entire clan killed by his brother was one thing. But the village has filled his head to the brim with lies about him being a Kami amongst Kamis. 50 ryu says he'll get killed on his first solo mission."

"I don't doubt that, he'll also get other killed because of his arrogance. He probably sees human beings as mere stepping stones for him to reach his goal. Itachi really screw him up with that damn Sharigan." the male jonin said taking another swig of sake. Kurenai stood up from her chair.

"We'll hopefully we'll brake him out of his funk before it's to late." she said though even she was severely doubting that. "Goodnight," she called as she walked down the hallways.

"Night," Kakahi called back.

"I'm not an alcoholic but I'm planning on it." he thought taking a gulp of sweet stress reliever.

The next morning: Nearby forest

After a light breakfast, Team 7 and 8 were all standing in a small clearing. All the students were lined up next to each other with their respected sensei opposite of them. Kakashi spoke first.

"Okay, my team will be learning to climb trees without the use of their hands." Everyone was shocked at hearing that, but for different reasons.

"But sensei that's impossible!" Team 8 just gave Sakura an "are you fucking kidding me" look.

"Well at least Hinata/I/Hina-chan beat her as the top kunoichi of the year." the team thought at the sheer stupidity of her. Kurenai sighed.

"Kakashi it's been over a month and you still haven't taught them tree walking. For Kami's sake I taught my team that in the first week. Hinata and Shino are on water walking and Naruto is already on kunai balancing." Sasuke gritted his teeth at how strong the clanless freak, as well as the inferior clan heirs were getting. He was an Uchiha so he should have that kind of power so he can kill him.

"I wanted to teach them that just as early Kurenai." the one-eyed jonin defended. "But with Sakura's lack of motivation to learn and Sasuke wanting to learn more powerful jutsu's-" "And your overall laziness." The female jonin mentally added. "-we just couldn't find the time." Team 8 scowled at how poor of an excuse he had but was surprised when they saw a faint smirk outline his mask. "However, I couldn't do anything because two certain people would come running to the council every time I tried to discipline them. But now that were outside the village those certain people have no choice but to answer to me with no repercussions once we get back." now the other team was smirking with Sasuke and Sakura were either scowling or sweating. "Now as I was saying you'll be...hey can one of your students explain Kurenai?" he asked. This was a perfect time to teach the emo some humility. Kurenai immediately caught on to what he was doing and smirked.

"Of course, Hinata explain." she ordered. The said genin nodded and walked toward a tree.

"This exercise is known as tree walking, all you have to do is maintain a steady supply of chakra to the soles of your feet so you can stick to surfaces. Since your feet are the hardest place of your body to concentrate chakra this aids in your control and reserves." Kiba was the only one who was actually paying attention as the other two refused listen to some Hyuga bitch act like she was better then them, an Uchiha elite and his future wife."That's about it in a nutshell so try it out for your self. Use kunai to mark your progress and it's best if you get a running start." Hinata explained. The three nodded and took out their own kunai and all ran up the tree. Kiba made it about half way before having to back flip off the tree to avoid falling on his ass. The other two however didn't put in any chakra into their feet so they couldn't make it more than two steps before falling back down.

"It looks like somebody didn't listen to my lecture." Hinata teased. Sasuke growled.

"Shut your mouth you white-eyed bitch I'm-!" the duck-ass would have gone on with his rant if Naruto didn't nail him in the gut with a solid hook sending him to his knees.

"Watch what you say Uchiha, say that again I'll make sure you won't be able to revive you clan." Naruto threatened as he saw a trickle of blood come out of the emo's mouth

"Naruto-baka! Apologize to Sasuke-kun of so help me I'll-" "That's enough!" Kakashi barked. "Kurenai send your capable team somewhere else and I'll deal with these two." The jonin nodded and led Team 8 out of the clearing leaving an irked Kiba and a furious Sasuke and Sakura.

"Uzumaki I swear I will kill you and everyone you care about. I swear it on my Uchiha name." Sasuke thought as he saw Team 8 leave the area to train in something that he should be learning.

Omake: Motivation

Uzumaki I swear I will kill you and everyone you care about. I swear it on my Uchiha name." the brooding jackass would have had more time to swear other things that aren't going to happen had he not heard two separate poofs of smoke. He turned around to see a dog wrapped in bandages and a BIG black dog almost as tall as Kakashi appear.

"Uhei, Bull, give these two a little bit of motivation." the summoner said in a sickly sweet voice. The two dogs growled menacingly and charged at the two.

"Paybacks a bitch." Kakashi and Kiba thought as they watched the two furiously run up the tree and fall back down into the jaws of the summons. They really should have listen to Hinata.

And...done! The omake was for all you Sasuke and Sakura haters like me so your welcome! I don't have much to say so I hoped you enjoyed the chapter.

R&R JA NE!
