A/N I changed some of the dialogue with Danzo at the end of the last chapter, it's a subtle change but it needed to be done. So please enjoy the next chapters to come!

xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

"Did you here? I overheard tou-san saying that Naruto was asked to come back to Konoha." A plump fellow said as his hand rested in a bag of chips.

"Ehhhh?! No way? He was asked to come back?!" A brown haired boy said and he scoffed, as his dog laid obediently at his side. He heard a sigh next to him and turned to the new head and glared.

"Calm down Kiba. So what if Naruto is coming back? Not like it affects any of us anyway."

Kiba threw up his hands and slammed them on the table his face inches away from the previous speaker "Of course it affects us Neji! You heard what Shikamaru said when he and his team encountered that thing, in Orochimaru's base nothing less!"

Neji glared slightly "You would have a freak out too if all of your supposed friends turned against you in a day."

Kiba scowled and let out a small growl, Neji didn't look intimidated at all "You can hate him all you want I don't care. It doesn't affect me." he said with a shrug as Choji tilted his head "How can you be so calm Neji? I mean it's not like you all well liked him and all. I mean we all were until his true colors were brought to light." The chubby boy said, his gaze turning to steel as he reached the end. Neji sighed dejected, he looked over at the other side of the room and seeing all the female rookies talking in whispers.

"I should refrain from informing them about what exactly happened yesterday in the council chambers. Maybe Dolphin will tell them?"

He thought internally as he finally looked away from the group of females. He swallowed his sigh as Kiba was now yelling off his anger at poor Shino. Thankfully Shino looked like he was asleep, from his very calm incline of breaths. He chuckled slightly as he took a sip of his drink.

( With the females )

"Isn't it crazy?! Naruto? Naruto?! I heard all leaving Shinobi who were leaving on missions in the past week were told to bring back that damn demon!"

"Tenten please calm down. I also heard that he was asked to come back to help us in the war with Kumo." Tenten rolled her eyes at her pale eyed friend and say down angrily "I don't give a fuck, we will do fine without a demon here anyway. Odds are he's just going to kill us the second we turn our backs" The bun haired girl heard a snort besides her and she shifted her gaze

"If he really wanted to kill us why would he wait till he came back to Konoha? Why wouldn't be do it when he was a genin? Shit even when we were at the academy?"

Tenten remained silent as she didn't have a retort. She pouted somewhat and her anger subsided a small amount.

"Ino you shouldn't talk about a demon like that, maybe he lost some of his power b-"

"You have to be fucking kidding me Hinata!"

Hinata jumped and she subconsciously hid behind her jacket. Tenten was easily as surprised as her mouth fell agape not expecting the sudden outburst

"How can you just treat someone so cold like that? Don't you believe that the caged bird is horrible and you resent it? Yet the boy you claimed to be in love with has a small seal and now you resent him?! For something he didn't even want? And you!"

She raised her hand to point in Tenten's direction ignoring the now downcast Hyuuga "You're the one person I thought would understand the situation! I expected more from the seal mistress of Konoha." She sneered out as she quickly left her seat and exited the bar leaving her gobsmacked friends at the table.

"Whoah what happened to Ino?" Kiba said to his group of fiends and blinked when Neji wasn't to be seen. "Ehhhh?"

Choji just shrugged as Shino fell face first on the table sound asleep.

"EHHHH?!"

( Scene break )

Ino stomped angrily as she had a what seemed like permanent scowl on her face. People steered away from her in slight fear as she glared at anyone who crossed her. Intentionally or unintentionally.

"Ino slow down damn"

Ino stopped immediately and her glare increased tenfold as she watched the man come up to her. Said man rolled his eyes as he raised his arms in a mock defense "Calm down Ino. That was your third out burst this week. I'm sure there just blaming it on your pms-ing ahhhhh never mind that.." he quickly stopped himself as he saw the blonde girl's hand tighten considerably. "Anyway you need to control your emotions more. We're anbu for Kami sakes." he said with a whisper and Ino rolled her eyes slightly, irritation quickly found its way into her voice "I'm sick and tired of our so called friends hating someone like Naruto for something he had no control over!" she whispered angrily as Neji sighed

"Yes I know, and he seems to resent us enough anyway you saw how he reacted in the council meeting, woah wait." he said as he stopped their walking to see the hotel they were standing in front off. Ino raised an eyebrow "The Leafs domain? Why are we here?" Neji sighed, he was really starting to get annoyed at everything right now "This is the hotel Hokage-sama assigned Naruto remember?"

Ino snapped her fingers and smiled an embarrassed smile "Kinda I was only partially listening."

Neji rolled his eyes and stepped forward not even waiting for his female companion. Once they were in the girl being the desk sent a beaming smile to Neji and bowed slightly "Hello welcome to the Leafs Domain! How may we help you two?"

Neji didn't bother smiling back as he locked eyes with her "May you tell us what room Uzumaki Naruto is in?"

The receptionists smile fell almost immediately and narrowed her eyes "Why would you want to see that demo-"

"Listen lady that's not important, this is a shinobi matter and you'd be best to tell us what room he's in to avoid any bad blood between us." Ino said with a glare and the girl quickly nodded scared senseless.

"H-hai r-room 49.."

Ino smiled sweetly and gave a huge smile "Thanks!" she said happily and skipped past her with an irritated Neji behind her "Did you reply have to threaten her?" Ino just shrugged in reply "It was barely a threat, she should know not to fuck with shinobi." She said casually like it was the most obvious thing in the world. Neji snorted "Whatever just lead the way."

( Scene Break- Few minutes earlier )

Naruto felt sick to his stomach, being in the Leaf for only a few hours was very taxing and it was different than usual. He avoided walking the streets after his council meeting and took to the rooftops. He was sure the rumor about him returning already spread through the rumor pool just from checking into the hotel. Just from the hours of being home he knew he made a mistake on even thinking about coming here. And an even bigger mistake in actually coming here. An even BIGGER mistake in agreeing to help in the war.

He now laid on his bed, his coat off and now only dressed in a set of a black shirt and anbu styled pants. He felt a pull on his subconscious and willingly fell into his mindscape.

He saw the huge nine tailed fox laying on the ground with an irritated look in his eyes. His narrowed slits pierced through Naruto, he felt himself start to sweat a little.

"Uhhh I'm sorry?"

The giant fox despite the serious situation, found itself sweat dropping. Kurama chuckled somewhat and soon adopted a serious manner "Listen kit, something was off with what that one eyed freak said. About your mother being alive that is."

Naruto stiffened and looked at the fox "He said my mother was alive and he had her in a hospital."

Kurama nodded, "I know what he sad baka I can hear everything you can remember?" Naruto pouted "But that can't be true, I sent my claw through both your mother and father before I was sealed inside you. It's simply impossible for her to be alive."

Naruto eyes went wide as his eyes showed pure anger "What! Are you fucking with me!?" he said with an icy edge and Kurama shook his head "Sadly I am not. You remember me telling you that I had something to do with their death right? So what he's saying doesn't add up at all"

Naruto nodded and crossed his arms, the angry look still in his eye "Yes I remember quite clearly thank you." he said with a glare, still somewhat sore from the subject. He then turned downcast "So I fell right onto Danzo's trap? Even after I knew my partners were dead. I still fell right in.."

"You were under emotional stress. It was hard enough stopping my chakra from seeping into you. He also used his knowledge of you not supposed to know who your parents are"

Naruto frowned and he nodded at the logic, he fell right in the trap, and he felt like a fool. "So what do I march in their and decline their offer again? Uh oh." Naruto said as he saw the Feral smirk appear on the foxes lips "What are you thinking of?"

Kurama's eyes glinted with eagerness "We need to make contact with that red headed Akatsuki member. From what we've seen so far he has information he shouldn't have. If anybody were to know if your mother was alive if would be him. But no that's not all."

Kurama licked his canine teeth and growled, swinging his tails back and forth "It's also possible that he had sensitive information on Kumo and Konoha. I'm sure that Danzo fellow has dirty little secrets that he doesn't want to come to life. If anything we could storm the place and kill him there. But that wouldn't go over well. But for now we go along with his little scheme, you have to use your acting skills and make him think we believe his lies."

Naruto smirked, it was a good plan. Only fault was he would have to practice yet again to hold his emotions back. "I got it, I'll send Sasuke a message. He said he was going to Rice Country and he would have a better time reaching Sasori than I would." Kurama smiled wickedly

"Yes perfect. If anything we need to ask for more. We should threaten them, make them want us, we need to turn their hatred into need for us to be here. Make them beg, make them suffer! Make th-"

"Okay okay I get it. I see your point."

Kurama smirked, he looked at the blonde "Kit, remember what your father said? About your bloodline?"

"Of course."

( Flashback )

"B-bu y-yo-u Y-on-dai-me-sa-ma?"

"Been a long 14 years hasn't it Sochi-kun?"

A 14 year old Naruto started with wide eyes at the man who just called him a son. The fourth Hokage, the man who sealed the Kyuubi inside of him. His confusion quickly replaced with blind rage as he pounced and punched the man in the gut. Hard.

"You" punch "mother" punch "fucker!" he said angrily as he punched one last time. The Yondaime just took it in stride, wincing from each punch he received. He felt a small hit and noticed the small boy fell forward and hit his head against his chest. He was shaking slightly and sniffed every few seconds. The Yondaime wrapped his arms around the small boy and held him close. "I'm sorry Naruto. I'm sorry for everything, I looked through your memories and if I knew this was going to happen I would have stopped it. I'm sorry…I love you don't forget that please…"

Naruto trembled slightly as he took in the Yondaime's no, his father's words. Something inside of him became warm. He was just treated with anger and resentment, hatred and betrayal. And finding out his father sealed the Kyuubi no Kitsune inside of him, it was the ultimate betrayal. But hearing the words he always wanted to here. A simple 3 word phrase and from his father no less. And the loving embrace, it was comforting even after all the heartbreak and betrayal. He wrapped his arms around his father shakily, he didn't know why his father was here, but he was happy even after all the Bullshit.

They spent a couple minutes a like that until Naruto ended the hug and looked at his father embarrassed "S-so you're my father huh?" Naruto asked more to himself than anyone else. Yondaime smiled sadly and nodded "Yeah, I am."

Yondaime put his hand on his son's head and he felt his smile widen "I'm happy I'm here to see you Naruto-kun. I wish I was there for you." Naruto smiled sadly as a cough interrupted the moment between the two, they turned to see a uncomfortable looking demon

"Sorry to ruin the tender family moment. But we have some explains to do." The Yondaime nodded, he looked down at his son "Naruto-kun, when I sealed the fox here, I put a small amount of my chakra in the seal in case you needed me or the seal failed."

"In this case I reached out and pulled Minato's chakra closer so you two could communicate sooner. But nothing less it seems Naruto here finally awakened his bloodline."

Naruto's head snapped towards the fox with his eyes wide in surprise and confusion. He turned to his father with a questioning look in his eyes. The now dubbed Minato nodded happily "But tou-san you were never said to have any bloodline at all." Minato nodded as his smile easily reached up to his eyes "Listen carefully Naruto, it's story time!" Naruto sweatdropped, but nodded anyway.

"Naruto we come from a race of shinobi only known to a select few known as Slayers. These slayers are known to have an incredible affinity to fire even better to that of the Nidaime's affinity to water. It was said that they grew up and were raised together by dragons." he said making Naruto's eyes widen. he was about to say something until Minato raised his hand silencing him

"They were immune to fire in every way possible. They could bathe in it, walk through it, make fire bend to their will, and take no damage from it whatsoever. They were immune in every right. But what made them so unique was any fire that there isnt thier own gets used against them the could actually eat the fire and regain energy."

"That was until one man thought he was above the people, and dragons together. He went and found the dragon who taught him and killed him. By that time he was forever known as a Dragon Slayer. The people became outraged that he killed one of their own, and the Dragons and people had fought in a civil war. By the time of the First Great Shinobi War they were all dead. Only a few dragons remained and no one has seen them since. But that doesn't mean that everyone died that day there was one survivor. He managed to escape the chaos. he changed his name and made a new life for himself found a wife and settled down, and that kid. That kids name was Minato Namikaze." he finished with a cheeky smile making Naruto look at his father with awe

"But they died when I was about 5. And I never activated the Dragon Slayer bloodline, no matter how hard I tried, I couldn't do it."

Naruto looked in awe. "Wow." he said quietly "So I activated this bloodline? But how?" The Kyuubi decided to enter the conversation "I would assume it had something to do with the emotional stress you were put through today. It's sorta similar to how the Uchiha awaken their sharingan." Naruto nodded sadly, Minato looked at his son and put his hand on his head again

"Naruto after you leave, I need you to go to lighting country and search for any remains of our people or anything related to dragons, or the dragons wear abouts." he saw Naruto nod and he started fading away and looked at his son with a sad smile "Looks like my time is up Naruto." he said and Naruto stood up frantically "W-wait! You're leaving so soon?" Minato smiled sadly and nodded "I didn't have enough energy to put more chakra into the seal, so I can only be here for a limited amount of time."

Our blonde hero felt his eyes getting glossy, "I guess that makes sense." Naruto mumbled, he felt a hand on his head and looked up to see his smiling father with tears in his eyes ruffling his hair "I love you Naruto don't forget that okay? Me and your mother loved you since the day we found out she was pregnant. We both died protecting you and we would do the same in a heartbeat. Me and Kushina love you Naruto-kun. You even inherited her personality and love for ramen." he sad with a joyful laugh making Naruto's eyes lite up,

"Please live a happy life Naruto-kun, no matter what to do we love you. And try and find any sign of our ancestors or any survivors. I love you."

Naruto ignored his falling tears and hugged the fading image of his father

"I love you too tou-san."

( Flashback End )

"He even told me my mother passed away. Maybe I wanted to believe Danzo since tou-san only have me a vague description of ka-san."

"Yes, but what I was thinking if we haven't seen any traces of other Dragon slayers out there. Hell we've only seen one dragon. It would be best to find them before anyone else does"

Kurama stopped talking as his ears twitched slightly. His crimson eyes narrowed to small slits "I sense three chakra signatures coming to our room. They were at the council meeting. One I don't recognize." Naruto tensed and quickly exited his mindscape and returned to the living world. He opened his eyes and swung his feet over his bed and used his arms to push himself up. A knock came from his door and he debated whether he should ignore it, or answer it. He could sense Neji's easily. The other felt familiar. Very familiar.

He shifted his gaze over to his open window and into the sea of trees that was his view. It was faint; but a small chakra signature was in the forest. And this one wasn't familiar. It was foreign, he hasn't fought anyone with such a large pool of chakra besides Sasuke. The knock echoed through the room again, she shifted his gaze to the door, ignoring the signature far away.

He swung his door open, and narrowed his eyes at the two arrivals. "Stay strong, keep emotions in check."

"May I help you too?"

"Awee can't we visit our favorite jinchuuriki? We haven't seen him in years, it would to be fun to catch up wouldn't it?" A feminine voice spoke up with a small tinge of playfulness that remained him of a certain Akatsuki member. He swore Sasori called him his favourite jinchuuriki as well…

He was surprised to see Ino at his hotel, but even more surprised that her eyes showed no resentment or hatred. He heard Neji sigh besides the girl "Ino, just stop" he said with a glare, Neji gave off that the blonde female was more annoying than helpful. But he looked comfortable enough with his somewhat lazy posture, but still battle ready. Ino glared over at the Hyuuga and Naruto raised an eyebrow

"Shut up Neji! We finally see him after years and you tell me to stop?!"

Naruto tilted his head as Neji barked back at her just as angry. He turned his head slightly as the unknown signature was now a few meters closer. He turned his gaze back to the bickering looking couple and coughed. Once he had there attention as spoke "What do you two want?"

Ino shrugged and attempted to walk right past him, Naruto's arm blocked her path. Ino smiled slightly embarrassed "What? I already told you we wanted to see our favorite jinchuuriki?" Naruto glared and turned back to the Hyuuga and he sighed

"What the dumb blonde is trying to say is even if you hate the Leaf there are still some people who don't see you as the Kyuubi incarnate." he said pointing at the laying down girl "Ino and I are a few of those people. To name a few Iruka-sensei, and the Ichiraku family, Konohamaru has distanced himself from his team when be found out they didn't like you either. It's hard to tell with Shikamaru' sometimes." Neji said with a shrug as Naruto widened his eyes. Ino spoke up this time

"Yeah so we decided to stop by and see how you're doing. You've been gone for a long time already." She said with a huge smile that she had to close her eyes

Naruto felt something spark within him that he wasn't expecting, and he spoke without thinking "Well you are seeing me now, so what else do you need."

Neji frowned as did Ino. Ino raised her hand to speak but the pale eyes man slapped his hand over her mouth "We just wanted to catch up and see how you have been." he said carefully, the blonde jinchuuriki didn't look in the mood to see them and he didn't want to sent him off anyone then he already was

"I've been doing fine. I would ask you the same but sadly, I don't care." he slammed the door in their faces as he disappeared from his spot reappearing on the tree branch closest to his bedroom window a dagger in hand. He tilted his head to the side avoiding a kunai thrown his way. It whizzed past him leaving a dent in his hotel door. The next thing he saw was a head of blue hair before it vanished. Naruto clenched his teeth and sprinted off closed to the target. Within seconds he stood on a tree branch with what looked like paper on the bark. He looked around but he couldn't sense the chakra anywhere. It seemingly vanished, without a trace.

"So you come to Konoha in hopes that people have changed and see you different. We find a man trying to deceive you in telling you your mother was alive. We feel in his trap and now have to help in the upcoming war. And now when encountered with people who see you as you. You ignore them and shun them. Leaving them and following a chakra signature that vanished, what the fuck is wrong with you?"

Naruto ignored the fox as he played with the paper between his fingers. He didn't disregard what the fox said. That small glimmer of hope he held onto vanished. He wasn't the child he was anymore, he grimaced to himself slightly. So what if people see him as him? He doesn't live in Konoha anymore, never will. What would pleasing the villagers and ninja do for him? Absolutely nothing, and now a mystery shinobi was watching him from afar with unclear intentions.

Yep, Uzumaki Naruto really fucked up on returning to Konoha.

( Scene break )

"3 tails captured and secured. Any word from the other members?"

"No"

Sasori said as he watched his new teammate tie up through 3 tailed jinchuriki. It was quite simply to take him after the rebelling forces of Kiri ambushed the bloodline haters. Still inside his Hiruko puppet, he pulled out a small scroll and started writing. Thankfully Itachi couldn't see what he was doing, and Sasori was thankful no one could see his widening smirk. Just because he couldn't reach his favorite jinchuuriki. Doesn't mean he still couldn't send him a letter. He tied an even smaller scroll to the letter he wrote, now he would just have to leave Itachi for about 2 minutes, and his letter would be on its way. He gave a sad sigh, he rested his hand on his gave as his eyes flashed.

"A shame, I would like to see little Naruto-kun. And maybe give Sasuke-kun a little visit, after all."

His eyes flashed with playfulness as his smirked widened, looking almost mischievous, with a tinge of malice

"Everything is going exactly according to plan."
