Wazzzzaaaaaa XP XP XP! Williamgbirkin here, to bring you another story. This one has the pairing of Naruto and Temari, I hope you enjoy!
Looking for a Beta!
Just so you know, if you comment about Black Blood or any of my other stories here, and vice versa...I'll ignore you.
I'm making Temari Naruto's age (five at the moment) in this, so Kankuro is one year younger (four), and Gaara is two years younger (three).
Warning, there's kind of a lot of talking in this chapter.

"Are we there yet?"

"..." (1)

"Are we there yet?"
"Yes."
"LIAR!"
This was the conversation of an old man and a young child as they traveled through the desert together, along with five other individuals, all of whom were wearing masks.
The old man had a rather wrinkled face, radiating wisdom, kindness, and power that any five men in their prime could only hope to match. He was wearing red and White robes with a funny red and white diamond shaped hat, with the kanji for 'fire' on the front of it. This man was Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Sandaime Hokage, leader, protector, and strongest man in Konohagakure no Sato, the village hidden in the leaves.
The child was a five year old red-headed boy, with the most entrancing eyes you could ever see, the left one being a beautiful sky blue and the right being a rather startling shade of violet (2), whisker marks on his face, and lightly tanned skin. This boy was Uzumaki Naruto, orphan, scapegoat, and Jinchuriki of the (second) most powerful being in the world, the Kyuubi no kitsune, or, the nine-tailed demon fox.
He became as such when the Kyuubi attacked his village five years ago on October tenth, not even an hour after Naruto's umbilical cord was cut, forcing the fourth hokage, Namikaze Minato to seal the demon into the child, his own son (though only about five people knew), at the cost of both their lives, literally with Minato, him actually meeting the shinigami, and figuratively with Naruto, as he became Konoha's most hated resident, as many saw him as the demon itself and not as a child.
They were on a journey to their ally, Sunagakure, the village hidden in the sand, well, the Hokage was. The five masked individuals were Anbu, Konoha's elite forces, acting as the Hokage's guards, and enforcers. Each had a different mask depicting an animal, Osu (boar), Kame (turtle), Kaeru (frog), Saru (monkey), and Inu (dog) (3), and they were there as an escort. Naruto was there because Hiruzen didn't trust the villagers not to kill the boy while he was gone.
When they finally stopped for the night at an oasis, four of the five masked individuals leaped away, with Inu simply staying with sitting down and talking to Naruto, as he was assigned to protect the boy pretty much since day one.
The old man then set up camp for them with a tent for himself and a smaller one for Naruto. He then went inside the tent, sat down in a chair that had been stored via the miracle of fuinjutsu, pulled out a small orange book, and started to giggle like a small girl.
After about five minutes, he suddenly felt a rather strong pulse of an unfamiliar chakra of at least chunin level. When he rushed out of the tent, the first thing he saw was Naruto jumping around like a crazy person, while Inu simply stood there, his body language going back and forth between curiosity and shock.
"I told you I could do it, Inu-sensei!" Shouted the boy, making the hokage wonder at the implications.
"Inu-san, what does he mean, 'sensei'?" asked the Hokage to the suddenly sheepish Inu.
"Well Hokage-sama, I've been teaching Naruto-kun here for about half a year now, and when he told me he could access his chakra at will, I asked for a demonstration (4)." Said the man in the dog mask, getting a frown form the aged Hokage.
"Why have you been teaching him? You know that he's set to go to the academy in a year where he'll get all the attention and help he needs there." Queried the old man, getting a disbelieving shake of the head from Inu, while Naruto went down to play in the water.
"I'm sorry, but I must disagree with you on that Hokage-sama. I've seen how people treat him, how they stare at him. The instructors won't give a damn about that boy, and I won't let them sabotage Sensei's legacy. You know just as I do, that all the other shinobi family children are probably doing the same thing that I'm doing. I just want to make sure that he has a chance to become the best shinobi that he can be." He said, getting a reluctant nod and a sigh from the old man.
"Very well, if you wish to continue to teach him, then I will allow you to do so until he enters the academy, and maybe a little after that, unless circumstances prohibit such an event." said the red-and-white-clad man, before going back into his tent, leaving the two to their own devices.

Next Day Sunagakure Main Gate
As the group of seven entered the gates, they were met by three people, a man with red hair, teal eyes, and the same robes as the hokage, but green instead of red (5), a young boy with purple paint on his face, wearing all black and holding a small puppet, and a young girl with sandy blonde hair in ponytails who was wearing a kimono.
'She's pretty' Thought Naruto, as he hid behind the Hokage with a blush.
"Welcome Hokage-dono, to Sunagakure." Said the man in the green robes, "May I introduce you to my children, Temari and Kankuro. I'd introduce Gaara, but no one seems able to find him."
"Is there cause for concern?" asked the kindly Hokage, only to get a shake of the head.
"No, no, no. He disappears all the time. Suna's a big place, and there's plenty of places for him to be. I'm not worried." Replied the Kazekage easily, getting a glare from the blonde girl, which he either ignored or he didn't notice.
"H-hello." Said Naruto to the blonde girl, still blushing, getting knowing smiles from the two kages and the adults present.
"Hi!" She said to him with a smile, getting an even bigger blush, "I'm Temari, what's your name?"
"U-Uzumaki Naruto (6)."
"It's nice to meet you Naruto-kun. This is Kankuro by the way." She told him, almost as if it were an afterthought, getting a pout from the purple boy.
"Hello Kankuro-san...why are you wearing make-up?" Asked an innocent Naruto, getting laughs from everyone but Kankuro, who wanted to strangle him.
"It's war paint." He mumbled, though everyone ignored him.
With that, the group began to walk into the village. After about five minutes, Naruto noticed a group of children about his age, give or take a few years, playing a game with a ball. This causes his chest to hurt remembering the fact that he wasn't allowed to play with anyone in Konoha, so he decided to see if these kids wanted to play with him. As he left the group, Temari was the only one to notice he was missing, everyone else being too caught up in listening to the Kage's talk.
"H-hello. May I play with you?" Asked the blonde boy timidly, already steeling himself for the harsh denial and hurtful words.
"Sure! We're playing soccer (7), you can be on my team." a little girl told him.
"Really?" Asked Naruto hopefully, before he became nervous and started staring at the ground, "I don't know how to play."
"We can show you! I'm Yue." The girl told him, getting an ecstatic nod and an introduction from Naruto.
After about twenty minutes of learning and playing, the ball was accidentally kicked out of the playing area towards a small red-headed boy with rings around his teal, pupil-less eyes, carrying a teddy bear. The boy, picked up the ball with a hopeful expression on his face, and approached the children playing.
"H-here. M-may I play with you?" asked the boy, holding out the ball, only to get fearful expressions from all the other children but Naruto.
"Get away from him!"
"It's the demon!"
"He's going to kill us all!"
With these shouts, Naruto flinched and got ready to flee, only to realize that the comments weren't addressed towards him, but towards the smaller red-head. At that point, a large amount of sand began to float up like a snake, causing the children to run away, only for one of the sand tendrils to attack Yue, getting a panicked look from everyone there, including the red-head. When the tendril was about three feet away from the child, a man with sandy brown hair and big, blue eyes, which made him look somewhat feminine, knocked away all of the sand, and stared at the raccoon-eyed boy with what seemed like disappointment, causing him to tear up, and run away, dropping his teddy.
Naruto stared after the boy, remembering his own treatment in Konoha, remembering the hell that was loneliness, thinking of how all he wanted was a friend. While he didn't know why the people did these things, he determined that he wasn't going to let another person go through that, even if they were from different villages. With that thought, Naruto picked up the other boy's teddy bear and took off after him.
While that may have been his thought, thinking is one thing, doing is another. While was able to follow the red-head, he was only able to do so because he was older, taller, and therefore faster, as the other boy went through twists and turns, through alleys, and un/populated areas. After twenty minutes of running, the smaller boy finally stopped in a dead end alley behind a dumpster, crying. When Naruto walked up to the boy, he started to scoot backwards while on his rear and screaming, "I'm sorry! Please, just leave me alone!"
When this happened, Naruto simply smiled and held out the teddy bear, getting a confused look from the other boy.
"You dropped this." Said Naruto, without any hint of fear.
After Naruto said that, the young boy asked, "Why are you being nice to me?"
"It's not nice being lonely, is it? You looked like you needed a friend, and I don't see why it shouldn't be me."
The red-head at first didn't understand what the older boy was saying. When it finally processed, He felt the strangest felling in his chest, a warmth that he had never felt before, except with his uncle. He then jumped at Naruto, hugged him and started crying, causing Naruto to drop the teddy bear as he hugged the boy back.
"Gaara! Are you alright?"
At this voice, both Naruto and the now identified Gaara looked towards the entry of the alley, seeing Temari there.
"Onee-san?" asked Gaara, shocked at the question, which she had never asked before.
"Temari-chan?" asked Naruto, wondering what she was doing there.
"Hey! What are you three doing over there?" asked another voice, before a person wearing a Suna jounin outfit appeared in a slight gust of wind, before realizing exactly who they were. Seeing Gaara, he immediately grabbed Naruto and Temari by the arms and started to drag them away, saying, "Temari-san, chisaimonono (little one), you shouldn't fraternize with that thing. I'll forgive you this once because you're both young and one of you is foreign, but this is you're last warning, don't let it influence you."
"But he's my friend." Stated Naruto, trying to get back to his first friend.
"But he's my little brother." Said Temari, trying to go to her sibling.
As all this was happening, Gaara simply picked up his teddy bear, hugged it, and sobbed.
With The Kage's
"Kazekage-sama, I found these two children, talking to the demon. I know that Temari-san is your daughter, but I don't know who the boy is. Is he yours Hokage-sama?" Asked the Suna jounin, as he walked up with the still struggling children.
"Jiji, tell this teme to get off, would you?" Asked Naruto, getting sweat-drops from everyone, including Kankuro and Temari, at his blatant disrespect to, arguably, one of the strongest men in the world.
"Where did you run off to Naruto-kun? And why am I just finding out about this now?" Asked Hiruzen, aiming the second question at Inu, getting the young man to sheepishly scratch the back of his head.
"I was listening to you, Hokage-sama." Said Inu, getting a sigh from the old man.
"Now, Why did you run off?" Asked Hiruzen.
"I saw some other kids playing, and I wanted to join." Explained Naruto, while Temari said that she wanted to make sure that he didn't get lost
"Naruto, I'm not mad that you ran off, I'm just sad that you didn't tell me." Explained the old man, to which Naruto lowered his head shamefully
"Now that that's settled, how about we continue figuring out how too make our alliance stronger, Hokage-dono." Said the Kazekage, getting a nod from Hiruzen.

Sunagakure
Two Weeks Later
It had been a rather interesting two weeks for Naruto. Everyday he would go out, followed by Temari, and find Gaara and try and get to know him. Gaara was weary of the two of them at first, but eventually opened up to them, and they'd play and talk until one of the Suna shinobi (usually a chunin) came to 'take the innocent children from the clutches of the demon'. Naruto and Temari would then be taken to the Kazekage's manor where they spent time with Temari's other brother and uncle, the man who had saved the girl the first time Naruto saw Gaara, and finally going to sleep before Gaara got back.
The man's name was Yashamaru, and he was the brother-in-law of the Kazekage. He was also the only person besides the Kazekage who was 'allowed' to be alone with Gaara, everyone else being 'to weak to survive an encounter' with the boy. He was also the person Temari loved most besides her mother, was the one who spent the most time with Gaara, and who taught Gaara everything.
Then, the Hokage would come, take Naruto to the hotel, the blonde would train with Inu a little, and then they'd go to sleep so that the day would begin again.
But this day...this day was different. It started out as usual, with Naruto waking up, saying bye to Inu and telling the man where he was going (since they were in Suna it was believed that Naruto would be safe, so he was sometimes allowed to roam), meeting up with Temari, finding Gaara, and then doing whatever they so desired. But, each to the three children had a very bad feeling of this day. And whereas usually they could only play for a few hours, today, they were together even into the night. So, with the feeling getting worse and worse, the simply decided to go home for the day.
This plan was ruined however, when several kunai came, and were blocked by a startled Gaara's sand, only for around twenty-five Suna-nins to appear, all of whom had cloths covering their heads and faces so that only their eyes showed.
"We have tried to warn you time after time, you must stay away from the demon. Since you didn't listen, it is obvious that you are in it's thralls, and therefore must be purified. I only hope that you find peace in Shinigami-sama's embrace." Stated the lead shinobi, a jounin, as he pulled out several more kunai, a motion copied by the others.
When this happened, Temari was furious as to what the man had said, and was not shy in voicing her opinion.
Gaara was saddened that these people were going to take his sister and his first friend away, and heard a voice in his head screaming for him to do horrible things to these men.
Naruto was shocked at what they had said, mostly because they were the Kazekage's children, but also slightly because he was with the Hokage, and at Gaara's sand blocking the kunai. When the shinobi drew more kunai, he grabbed both Temari and Gaara's hands and took off running in the opposite direction, getting flashbacks of when the same thing happened in Konoha.
Seeing this, the crueler of the shinobi laughed at this, and decided to humor the children, staying one step behind them, while occasionally throwing a kunai, getting the sand to rise once again.
As the children were running, Temari kept trying to tell Naruto something while he ignored her, and Gaara was saying that they should leave him behind since, for some reason, he didn't want to see them hurt.
After about five minutes of running, Naruto turned a corner, and realized that it was a dead end, but by the time they had turned back around, the mob was already blocking the entrance.
"What do we do now?" asked Naruto.
"Why wouldn't you listen to me? I told you that you should let me lead!" Yelled Temari.
With that, one of the chunins threw a kunai at them, only for it to be blocked by the sand. Then, there was the sound of a fuse burning, before an explosive note that had been wrapped around the handle went off, making Naruto and Temari go off in one direction, and Gaara go in another.
"Temari-chan!" Screamed Naruto, as got up, seeing her unconscious.
"Forgive me, but I must do this." Said 'Random Suna Chunin 12', as he threw his kunai, only for Naruto to cover Temari, making it hit him in the shoulder.
"AAAH" Screamed the red-head.
"What the hell? Do it quickly! Are you trying to make them suffer?" Asked 'Random Suna Chunin 8'.
"Sorry." 'Random Suna Chunin 12' said quickly, as he pulled out another kunai, intent on ending the children's life.
As he approached, time seemed to go in slow motion for Naruto. He looked at Gaara, who was currently curled in a corner, staring at them in horror as his sands protected him from the others. He looked at Temari, still unconscious beneath him. He stared at the Chunin, wanting to kill them for reasons he couldn't fathom.
In that instance, something happened. Something clicked in his head, and he reached both palms up, pointing at 'Random Suna Chunin 12' and focused his chakra.
Once he did this, he felt himself getting warmer, before a beautiful red-orange orb appeared, hovering about half a foot away from his palms.
"..."
"..."
"..."
"What am I supposed to do with this again?" Naruto suddenly asked.
"CUT!" Shouted the director (me) from his place behind the camera. "You're supposed to shoot the orb at 'Random Suna Chunin 12', and kill him."
"Why do I have to do that?" Asked the boy, not really wanting to do so, as Gaara clutched his head in seeming pain.
"It's to protect Temari, and yourself." explained the director, "Didn't you read the script?"
"Not rea-" began Naruto, only to be interrupted by Gaara.
"YOU'RE BREAKING THE FOURTH WALL! YOU'RE BREAKING THE FOURTH WALL!"
"Heh, sorry about that Gaara." Said Naruto, sheepishly rubbing the back of his head.
"Anyways...ACTION!" Shouted the director.
With that, Naruto focused his chakra into the orb, and it shot at the Chunin, who, not expecting something like that, had no time to dodge and was hit, making a massive cloud of steam appear and block everyone's vision.
When the steam cleared, it revealed a heavily panting Naruto, and the chunin, who had somehow become a mummy.
"What? That was Shakuton (Scorch Release)! How could that brat know it? Did the demon steal from Pakura-sama and give it to that boy?" Questioned 'Random Suna Chunin 5'.
"You little fucker! I'll show you to steal from Suna!" Shouted 'Random Suna Chunin 19', who went to stab the exhausted Naruto as he continued to protect Temari, only to receive a kunai to the back of the neck.
"What the hell? Who threw that?" Asked 'Random Suna Chunin 15'.
When everyone turned to where the kunai, everyone in the group immediately began to sweat and tremble.
The woman was a fairly tall kunoichi. She was fair-skinned with pupiless brown eyes, had green hair that she tied in a bun on top of her head with a hair needle running through it and a pair of orange bangs framing each side of her face. Her attire consisted of a sleeveless, backless top and short tight pants, with two lapels on the front and the back as well as an obi around her waist, purple arm-warmers which extend to mid-bicep, and bandages around her ankles.
"Pakura-sama. Wh-what are you doing here?" asked one of the suddenly nervous men.
"I sensed someone using Shakuton and decided to come investigate, since I'm the only one in the village registered as able to do so. Imagine my surprise when I come across several chunin's and a couple of jounins attacking three children, two of whom are the Kazekage's children, and one of whom is part of the Hokage's ambassadorial party." the now identified Pakura told the men, as several more red-orange orbs, which everyone (including Naruto) noticed were much larger and brighter than the blonde's, began to swirl around her, making a few of the men run away, with the rest becoming extremely nervous.
"W-we just wanted to get rid of that THING and bar that, deny it the satisfaction of a 'friend'." stammered one of the more terrified of the group, 'Random Suna Chunin 6', hoping that cooperating would make it so that he didn't die a horrible, painful death.
"I see, then I...regret...to inform you that there is no demon here, now please leave so that I don't have to do something...drastic." Sated the woman, making over half of the group to disappear, while the other's frowned.
"Did I stutter? Please leave. Now" Said Pakura firmly, getting glares from a few of the shinobi that were left, and one to step forward.
"I'm sorry, Pakura-sama, but if you're defending that thing, then it obviously has you in it's thralls as well. You must be cleansed as well. Goodbye." Said the man, getting nods from the rest, who then attacked the woman, who sighed and killed them all, just in time for a group, including the Kage's, to show up on the scene.
"Pakura? What happened here? Why are all these men dead?" Asked the Kazekage, getting Pakura to stand at attention.
"Sir, Kazekage-sama, sir! I was walking home from dinner, when I felt the use of Shakuton chakra. Knowing that I'm the only one registered as able to do so, I immediately investigated, and found several chunins and a pair of jounins attempting to 'kill the demon and cleanse it's friends'. I killed one as he was attempting to kill the whiskered boy with a kunai, and the rest as they attacked me after I warned them to go away, them stating that I was 'in the demon's thrall'." reported the green-head, getting shocked looks from everyone.
Upon hearing this, the Kazekage immediately went over to the children, kneeled down, and asked, "So which one of you did it? Which one of you made a red ball that made someone do that?" He questioned, pointing at one of the still steaming men, getting looks from the children before Temari and Gaara pointed at Naruto, who had raised his hand.
"Interesting, and how did you do that?" Asked the man, getting a shrug from Naruto, who then tried to explain.
"I-I...I felt scared when Temari-chan was hurt, and then...I knew how." said Naruto, not really knowing how to explain it with his adolescent mind.
"Hmm, sounds like what happened the first time I used it." mused Pakura, "What's your name boy?"
"Uzumaki Naruto." responded Naruto, finally catching his breath.
"Uzumaki? Interesting. My great-grandfather was an Uzumaki, he had it, and I'm the only one in my family to get it since." Said Pakura to herself, shocking everyone but the Kazekage.
"Well, if that's all, We should get Temari-chan and Naruto-kun to the hospital." Said the Hokage, as he picked up Naruto and the Yashamaru picked up Temari, and they left the area, leaving the Anbu to clean up Pakura's mess.

Sunagakure Main Gate
One Week Later
It was a rather sad time for the Hokage, as he was saying goodbye to Naruto.
Not forever mind you, simply for a year, until he was trained in his Shakuton by this 'Pakura' woman. Why a year you ask? Because Naruto was due to begin his stay in the academy then. Looking back now, Hiruzen sighed as he and the Kazekage had reached an agreement on how to strengthen Suna's relations with Konoha.
Flashback No Jutsu
Kazekage's Office
"I have an idea on how to improve the relationship of our village." Said the Kazekage from his place behind his desk, the only people in the room being himself and Hiruzen.
"Oh, and how is that?" Asked the Hokage, already knowing the answer, but still dreading it.
"Political marriage. Between Naruto and Temari." Answered the green-clad man, confirming Hiruzen's fears.
"I understand Naruto, he has a Kekkei genkai that is thought exclusive to Suna, but why Temari?"
"Because she is my daughter, I couldn't ask someone else to do what I couldn't, plus the two of them seemed to have hit it off." He replied easily.
"I don't know, Naruto-kun may never forgive me for something like that. Plus, there are things you should know if such a thing were to happen."
"Such as?" Wondered the red-haired man, honestly curious.
"For starters, Naruto is the Jinchuriki of our village and the Kyuubi. If there is a marriage, for political reasons, they will have to live in Konoha." Said Hiruzen, getting a shocked look from the Kazekage.
"Interesting...But inconsequential. If Temari must leave, then so be it. However, Any children they have, must be given the option to become Suna shinobi, especially if they get the Shakuton." The Kazekage told the man, getting a nod before he continued. "I will say this though, He will need training to control his gift, and what better person to train him than someone with the same ability. I propose that he stay here for a length of time to train under Pakura. I also know of your academy, and I feel as though it is too soft, so I want you to give Temari private tutoring, especially in whatever her elemental affinity happens to be."
"I suppose, but he can only stay here a year before the academy starts in one year."
"I see. That should be more than enough time for Naruto to learn the basics."
"Very well." Acquiesced the old man, before the two of them started hammering out the exact details of the arrangement.
Flashback No Jutsu Kai
After he snapped out of his daze, the kind old man looked once more at the small boy who was one of his favorite people in the world, who was jumping up and down at the prospects of becoming stronger.
"Goodbye Naruto-kun, I can't wait to see you again." He told the young boy, getting him to calm down, and smile at the man.
"Don't worry Jiji, In one year, I'll come back home, and I'll take that kick-ass pointy hat from you!"
"I have no doubt that you will, Naruto. Now, stay safe, and don't forget to write."
"I will Jiji, see you in a year." Said the boy, as he reached up and hugged the old man, a gesture that was returned warmly
"See you in a year."
With that, Naruto watched as the Hokage left, wondering what the next year was going to bring.
With the hokage's party, Hiruzen noticed that Inu seemed slightly depressed.
"Inu-san, is something the matter?" He asked, getting a sigh in response.
"It's just that...I don't know...you only gave me permission to teach Naruto-kun less than a month ago, and now I can't do that." he replied, getting a shocked look from the old man.
"Really, strange, I had forgotten all about that." He said with a laugh, getting a sweatdrop from Inu and all the other Anbu.

Konoha Main Gate
One Year Later
It was a slightly funny scene, for those who could understand, at the main gate of Konohagakure no sato, with the Kazekage arriving with several masked individuals, one green-haired woman, a man drunkenly stumbling, and three children, two red-heads and a blonde, being greeted by the Hokage, and a young man with short brown hair and beard, smoking a cigarette, his son Asuma, who had just come back from being one of the Shugonin Junishi (Guardian shinobi twelve), this scene being almost an inverse of one year ago.
As they were approaching, Naruto, who was looking forwards to talking with the old man, was having flashbacks of the various things that had happened in the year.
His first training session.
Flashback No Jutsu
One Year Ago
It was the day after Hiruzen had left, and Naruto and Pakura were about a mile outside of the village.
"What are we doing here, Pakura-sensei?" asked Naruto, who was sweating up a storm from the heat while the woman was standing there like she was standing in the most temperate climate imaginable.
"We are here to train you in the Shakuton, a purely offensive kekkei genkai, even if you use it to defend. I want you to know that no matter where you hit a person with this ability, you are ruining their day." She told him, getting a nod and then a confused look from Naruto.
"What's a kekkei genkai?" He asked.
Sighing, Pakura explained all that he needed to know; elemental affinities, chakra papers, types of kekkei genkai, and which elements made up Shakuton (fire and wind (8))
"So we're related?" asked Naruto, with a hopeful look on his face, before it came crashing down around him at her reply.
"Not enough to count kid, sorry."
After about twenty minutes of sulking, Naruto asked another question. "Are you going to teach me anything else?"
While her immediate answer should have been no, after some consideration, she decided that it might be a good thing to teach someone what she knew of being a shinobi, because...hey, if he became famous, she could brag about being his teacher, and if not, then he would fade into obscurity, and no one would ever know.
"Tell you what brat, you master Shakuton to a level I deem acceptable, and I'll teach you a few more things. How does that sound?" Asked the woman, getting an enthusiastic nod from the boy.
"Now, I want you to think back to when you first used this ability. I want you to try and feel that warmth. I want you think of whatever it was that made you do it."
As she said this, Naruto attempted to do as she instructed, only to fail each time. After about five minutes, Pakura stopped him, and asked what he was doing.
"I'm doing exactly what you said to. I'm trying to make it come out." He told her, getting a shake of the head.
"Relax. Take a deep breath, try again. Don't concentrate too hard or you're going to pop something. Just focus on the same warmth you felt a week ago." She told him, before pulling out a kuani. "And if that doesn't work, we can skip right to the drastic measures."
Paling rapidly, Naruto immediately did as she instructed, finally getting the red orb to appear.
"Wonderful. Now we work on control. See if you can get it to move."
Flashback No Jutsu Kai
The day he learned of his burden.
Flashback No Jutsu
Ten Months Ago
Naruto was sitting in the living room of the Kazekage's mansion. It was around eight at night, and nobody else was there but him and Yashamaru. He was feeling rather down, because the villagers had been meaner than normal to Gaara that day. Seeing that something was amiss, Yashamaru, being the kind man that he was, asked what was wrong.
"Why are people so mean to Gaara? He hasn't done anything wrong. They treat him like the people back home treat me." Naruto admitted, making the effeminate man remember that Hiruzen said Naruto was a jinchuriki, but didn't know it. After thinking about it, he decided to tell the truth of whatever question the boy asked, but wouldn't tell him anything if he didn't.
"Gaara is what is called a jinchuriki, meaning 'the power of a human sacrifice'. That means he has one of the nine Bijuu sealed inside of him. That's what gives him his control over sand, and why so many people, including Kankuro, fear him. They see him as the demon and not as himself. But he isn't a demon, just a small boy with a terrible burden."
'He has a demon sealed inside of him? But he isn't a demon himself? Am I a jinchuriki? I am treated the same way as Gaara, does that mean I have a demon in me too?'
"Am I a jinchuriki?" Naruto asked Yashamaru, getting a sigh and a grim look.
"Yes Naruto, you are. Hokage-sama told us that what you hold is the Kyuubi, the nine-tailed fox that attacked your village on the day of your birth, leading to the fourth Hokage sealing it into you."
"Does that mean I am a demon? Am I just a monster that attacked the village?" asked Naruto, getting a shake of the head.
"Of course not! You are simply a young man who has had too much sadness in his life." Answered Yashamaru, before he struck a pose that suggested he was deep in thought. "I am curious as to how you don't know this though. You have the most powerful demon sealed inside of you while Gaara has the weakest. You're seal must be very good to hold such power. I mean, Gaara's seal is too weak to hold his, which is why he can't ever sleep."
"What's a seal?" Asked Naruto, wanting to know if he could help his friend in any way possible.
"A seal is a product of Fuinjutsu, an obscure branch of the shinobi arts that is considered one of the most terrifying, and one of the most difficult to learn. It is where you take one thing, and put it into another. With it you can make anything from sealing scrolls to barriers to Jinchuriki." Explained Yashamaru.
"Can you make a seal better after it's made?" Asked Naruto.
"I don't think so, I mean, you can reinforce it with more seals, but other than that... Why do you ask?"
"Because I want to know if I can let Gaara sleep." Answered Naruto with the utmost determination.
"I don't know if you can do something like that, Naruto-kun. Our best fuinjutsu expert made Gaara-kun's seal and even then it's faulty. Your seal was done by the fourth hokage himself, one of the greatest shinobi ever to exist, and a true fuinjutsu master."
"Then that's even better! If I want to be the best Hokage ever, then I have to surpass all of them!" Shouted Naruto.
"Very well, Naruto-kun. I'll see if I can convince Chiyo-baasama to teach you."
One Week Later
"Alright, where is this brat? I don't have all day. I need to get back to fishing!"
Hearing this, Naruto and Temari decided to investigate.
"Please be patient Chiyo-baasama, I'm sure this won't take long." Said the effeminate man, hoping to not piss the old woman off since she could still kick his ass, even with her advanced age.
"Hello?" Asked Naruto, startling the two adults slightly, causing them to look at the two children.
"Is that him?" asked the old woman, getting a nod from Yashamaru. "Very well." She then knelt in front of Naruto, "Why do you want to learn fuinjutsu."
'Probably just a phase. Why did I come here again? Oh yeah, Yashamaru-kun is pretty much the only person I can stand and he asked a favor. Wait, has the kid been talking this whole time?'
"I'm sorry, could you repeat that Gaki?" She asked, to which Naruto huffed and told her again.
"I want to become the best hokage ever. To do that, I need to become even greater than the Yodaime, but to me, that'll just be a bonus. I mostly want to help Gaara. He can't sleep, and his..."
"Biju." Offered Yashamaru.
"Yeah, Biju, tries to make him not be him. I want to help him because he is my first and best friend." Naruto finished answering honestly, determination shining in his eyes, making Chiyo stare at him in wonder, before she gained a small smile.
'So he just wants to help Gaara, eh? Maybe he can undo my mistake.'
"Very well, gaki, I'll teach you, but I can only teach you from six thirty to nine." she told him, earning an excited nod from the boy.
Flashback No Jutsu Kai
And the day his more 'interesting' sensei showed up
Flashback No Jutsu
Nine Months ago
Naruto, after a long day of training with Pakura, was walking back to the Kazekage's estate. Currently, he was walking through one of the seedier parts of town in a shortcut, hoping to get back before it got too much darker.
As Naruto was walking outside of a bar, suddenly, the doors burst open as a person was thrown through them. After about five seconds, a man walked out of the bar surrounded by several others, both shinobi, and civilian.
He was a tall, muscular and pale-skinned man with straight black hair, which was slicked back and gathered on the back of his head, where it was kept in a bun, hidden away by a white cloth with ruffled edges secured by a similarly colored strip. He had slanted eyes, each bearing four tattoos under each, and which were topped by black, arched eyebrows. Hanging from his ears were a pair of light brown earrings, which looked like gourds.
His outfit left most of his muscular torso exposed, instead covering his arms and shoulders with dark blue armor plates, which joined on the upper part of his back and are topped by a wide, arched armored collar in correspondence to his nape. Covering his legs were a very baggy pair of dark pants, which ended below his knees, where it gets tighter, and sports large, light motifs reminiscent of flames on the legs' outer edges, and circling his waist was a light sash tied on his left hip, with its long edges left hanging and gourd hung on a string of his right hip. On his feet were a pair of dark, plain Chinese-looking shoes with light soles. (9)
Suddenly, the man started screaming about 'getting wild' and dropped into a rather weird stance, where he bent his knees and diagonally stretching his arms upwards behind his back, making it look like he was about to start flapping them.
When the other patrons started to attack him, the man started dodging their attacks, swinging to and fro, seemingly at random, but without wasting a single move. After each dodge, he would strike one of his opponents, with a hard fast blow of the palm, usually taking down the opponents in one strike. While this was happening, Naruto was simply standing there, amazed by the display.
After defeating all of his opponents, the man fell on the ground and started snoring, and Naruto cautiously walked up to the him, picked up a discarded katana sheath, and started poking the man.
"Five more minutes Mommy, I don't want to go to school." Mumbled the man, getting a sweatdrop from Naruto, who just started poking the man harder.
"Stop...stop...please stop...you can stop now...I'm getting pissed off...STOP DAMMIT!" Shouted the man as he sat bolt upright, grabbed the sheath, and snapped it in half. Looking around for his assailant, he noticed the small red-headed boy looking at him in what seemed like awe.
"What do you want Gaki-chan?" slurred the man, getting a tick mark to form on Naruto's head, before he decided to introduce himself.
"I'm Uzumaki Naruto, the next hokage! How did you do that?"
"Names Bacchus, do what?" he asked, getting a deadpanned look from the boy, who indicated all the unconscious people around them.
"Oh...that. Like the Chop Hanging Palm (10), do you?" he asked, getting a nod from the boy.
"Can you teach me?" The boy inquired.
After thinking about it for about thirty seconds, Bacchus' liquor soaked brain couldn't really find anything wrong with doing so, so he simply nodded.
"Really? You promise?" asked Naruto.
"I promise. Now run along and let me sleep." replied the half naked man, as he passed out in the middle of the street and a group of bodies.
Sweat-dropping, Naruto, being the nice person that he was, decided to bring the man to the Kazekage's place, so he wouldn't sleep on the ground, and started to drag the man away (took him an hour, rather than the regular five minute walk it should have been, by the way.)
The Next Day
Pain was the first thing that Bacchus registered as he woke up, "Unh, my head. I need to get a drink or something...Wait...the ground here is weirdly comfortable. Where the hell am I?" Mused Bacchus aloud to himself.
"I'm glad you find my couch comfortable, now would you mind telling me what the hell you're doing in my house?" asked a voice. As Bacchus turned, he immediately turned paler than a ghost as he recognized the man glaring down at him, but not the small red-head with the teddy bear behind him.
"Kazekage-sama?"
"Yes, now give me one reason I shouldn't kill you."
"Um..."
"Wait!" Shouted Naruto as he came down the stairs.
"Naruto-kun?" Asked the leader of Suna with a raised brow.
"That's my sensei." Said the boy, getting surprised looks from the two men, as well as Temari and Kankuro, who were just coming down the stairs.
"What do you mean 'sensei' Gaki-chan?" Asked Bacchus, the night still hazy in his mind.
"You promised that you'd teach me the...chop...chop ha...chop hang..." Started Naruto, unable to remember the exact name of the technique.
"Chop Hanging Palm?" Asked Bacchus, getting a nod from Naruto, causing the man so sigh and ask, "Did I really promise?" getting another nod.
"Well, if I promised, then I guess I have no choice but to teach you."
"YATTA!"
So, after a little more explaining, during which Gaara explained that he watched Naruto drag the man in during the night, the group had breakfast, and then Naruto and Bacchus made their way to Naruto's usual meeting place with Pakura.
When they got there, Bacchus immediately shot over to Pakura and started hitting on her, only stopping when she threatened to mummify what made him a man.
"Now, would you mind telling me why you are here, Bacchus-san?" inquired the woman.
"I'm here to teach Gaki-chan here my taijustsu style, Chop Hanging Palm." He told her, getting a shocked look from the woman, who had been considering trying to find Naruto a taijustsu teacher.
After a few more minutes of conversation, they decided on a plan for Naruto's training. He would train in the Shakuton from the normal time of five A.M., stopping at eleven, and then he'd train from Noon to six with Bacchus, leaving him time for lunch and time afterwards for study with Chiyo.
"Now, the Chop Hanging Palm is a style that utilizes nothing but the palms of your hands, focusing on three things; power, speed, and accuracy. Now, usually, you only focus on two of these things, and the third one falls behind. I however, use all three equally, making it even deadlier, and I will teach you to do the same. Now, the best part of this style, is when one uses chakra along with it. If you focus chakra into the palms, you are able to make your strikes even more devastating, and if you use elemental chakra, then it's a whole 'nother ball park, allowing you to use a plethora of ill effects, killing a person without even breaking the skin. I for example, use raiton (Lightning style). with each strike, I can cause anything from paralysis, to muscle spasms, to nerve damage, or even heart failure. Doton (Earth style), petrifies the organs, and muscle tissues within the body. With suiton (Water style), because the body is made of water, you have a higher chance of causing ruptures or internal bleeding, or even drowning your opponent on dry land. Futon (Wind style), simply shreds the person from the inside, and if you have enough control, you could sever single arteries, or make their organs paste, while finally katon (Fire style) is able to burn the person's organs and muscles. Master it normally, and I'll teach you the advanced stuff. The version that you saw you're required to be drunk, but I don't really feel like teaching that to a five year old." He told Naruto.
Naruto then nodded, before doing everything that he was told by the drunk.
After they got back to the mansion, it was agreed that Bacchus would stay there until he finished teaching Naruto (It was pretty funny when one time, Bacchus drunkenly hit on Yashamaru, thinking him to be a female).
Flashback No Jutsu Kai
"Welcome to Konoha, Kazekage-dono," Said the Hokage, before they exchanged the obligatory political small talk, with Naruto introducing Gaara and Temari to Asuma.
"Hello Asuma-san, I'd like you to meet Gaara and Temari-chan," Said the taller red-head, getting a smirk from the smoking man.
"Oh, is this your girlfriend?" he asked, getting a contemplating look from Naruto before he simply shrugged.
"If she wants to be," he answered honestly, getting a blush from Temari, neither knowing yet of their future.
Hokage's Office
When the group got to the office, the Hokage ordered everyone but the Kazekage, his children, Pakura, Bacchus, Naruto, and Asuma to leave the office. After the obligatory bitching from their guards, they got straight to business.
"Now, Naruto, do you know why Kazekage-dono allowed you to train under Pakura for a year?" asked the Hiruzen, getting a shake of the head from Naruto.
"It is because you and Temari are to further relations between Suna and Konoha." replied the old man, getting curious looks from the three children.
"The two of you are to be in a political marriage." Said the Kazekage, shocking the children.
"What do you mean?" Asked Naruto, not really understanding the implications.
"It means that you and Temari are to move into a house that I prepared for you, go to the academy, and once you both reach Chunin, you are to be married. If you wish to have children, so be it, but it will not be required." Explained Hiruzen, making Gaara start to cry.
"Does that mean I won't see Nii-san, or Nee-chan again?" He asked, terrified of the prospect.
"Of course you will, Gaara-kun. You just won't see them as much. I'm sure they'll visit and write at every opportunity." Said the Hokage, as the Kazekage watched apathetically.
"Why do I have to stay here? Why can't Naruto stay with us?" Asked Temari, sad at having to leave her home.
"Well, you see-"
"It's because of the kyuubi, isnt' it?" Asked Naruto, interrupting the hokage, getting a panicked look.
"How do you know about that?" demanded Hiruzen, before the heterochromic boy told him about Yashamaru and his decision to learn fuinjutsu.
"I can even make sealing scrolls and exploding tags, isn't that awesome?" Asked Naruto, getting a smile and a nod from the old man.
After all things were explained to them, the meeting went on smoothly and afterwards, they were taken to the house that the hokage had given them, as Naruto's apartment was much too small for two people, let alone two people expected to start a family.
It wasn't really much, a two story house with three bedrooms, two baths, an office, all the standard things. As soon as they stepped in the front door, Bacchus went over to the couch yelling 'dibs' and fell face first on it, falling asleep, almost instantly.
After a brief tour of the house, the future couple said goodbye to the adults, getting a notice that the academy was starting the next day, before they went about their business.
After they were gone, Temari simply stared at the door, unable to fully comprehend the fact that she was pretty much on her own with Naruto (she didn't really count Bacchus, because he was an alcoholic).
Turning to Naruto, she was startled to see that he was smiling with a far off look in his eyes.
"Naruto-kun, why are you thinking about?"
"I was just thinking that I like the way our future looks."
"What do you mean, don't you know that we're on our own from this point?" She asked, getting a shake of the head from Naruto.
"We're not alone. You have me, and I have you." He said, getting a blush and a smile. "And we have Bacchus, and Jiji, and Teuchi-oji-san, and Ayame-Nii-san. There's also Gaara, and your tou-san." he finished eagerly, getting Temari to think, before she nodded and begin to explore the house more thoroughly.
That Night
It was around nine thirty P.M., with Naruto sound asleep, when he was awakened by the sound of Temari opening his door, as she had been sleeping in another room.
"Can I sleep with you?" She asked, "It's too cold, and I can't sleep" She told him, getting a nod from Naruto, prompting her to climb into the bed, snuggling up to his rather warm body.
'Must be from his Shakuton.' she pondered in her head, before falling into the peaceful abyss of sleep.
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX
And that's the first chapter! Please review!
I don't really like the conversation with Chiyo, because I couldn't really think of any way to prolong the conversation.
I believe that while Temari may have cared for her brother all her life, she wasn't allowed to show it, with it only being after the Kazekage dies, that she is finally able to express her sisterly affection.
Now, before you say anything about how Naruto was able to use the Shakuton at will so quickly, may I remind you that Haku was able to use his (her) Hyoton (Ice release) without any prior ninja or chakra training.
And before you say anything else, yes I said Shakuton a lot, there were a lot of flashbacks, and Naruto had teachers coming out of the woodworks to teach him, screw you if you have a problem with it!
Wow, I say things like that a lot don't I? 'Screw you if you have a problem with it', do you think I'm just jaded, or am I justified when I say things like that? Maybe I should see a psychiatrist or something...oh well, you don't really care about that, now do you? No you don't. You just want me to shut up and write the damn story don't you? Well I think...never mind, I just lost my train of thought.
While Naruto will be starting the Uzumaki clan, it will not be like Black Blood where he goes to Uzugakure, finds stuff, and has Uzumaki's show up at Konoha, it will just be him and Temari until they have children.
Just so you know, Kankuro spent most of his time with the puppet brigade so Naruto never really got to know him, Temari had her own training, and Gaara spent most of his time outside the Kazekage's manor.
I will say that I meant to have a flashback where Temari kisses Naruto on the cheek after they have a spar, but I'm terrible with emotions, so I'd probably just fuck it up.

Omake
Naruto's Jumpsuit
(Based off icyookami's It's true on deviantart)
It was a beautiful day in Konoha, and six year olds, Naruto, Shikamaru, and Kiba were hanging out at the park.
Suddenly, Kiba asks the two others to wait where they were, while he goes and gets something.
"What do you think it is?" Asked Naruto to Shikamaru.
"It's too troublesome to think about." Answered the pineapple-headed boy.
It was at this point that Kiba came back with a package that he then gave to Naruto.
"Here, man. I thought I'd give you a gift." He said, with a rather strange smile.
"Why are you giving me a gift? Did you get one for Shikamaru?" Asked the red-head to the feral child.
"No real reason, and I'll...umm...give it to him tomorrow?" said/asked Kiba, hoping that Naruto wouldn't catch on.
Naruto then shrugged and opened the package, pulling out a hideous orange jumpsuit.
"What is this for?" asked Naruto, liking the color, but not really wanting to put it on.
"It's for you." Answered Kiba.
"Are you sure? I don't really think this is appropriate." Said Naruto, remembering the books that said dark colors were a shinobi's best friend.
"That's because-" Started Shikamaru, before he was silenced by Kiba putting a hand over his mouth.
"That's because...um...We're not real ninja's yet. We're just academy students. Real ninjas wear bright florescent colors. Not only does it look fantastic, but it also warns enemies that you're not to be fucked with. Plus...um...it makes girls like you."
"Really?" Asked Naruto, getting a nod from the dog-loving boy. Naruto then thanked him rather loudly, then left, as it was getting to be the time he had to meet with Bacchus.
"Why did you do that?" Asked Shikamaru, watching Naruto leave.
"Why not?" responded Kiba.
"*sigh* Troublesome." Said Shikamaru, as he walked away.
The Next Day
This morning, Naruto slept in slightly late, for whatever reason. He then decided to put on his new jumpsuit and show his stuff around the village.
Walking out of his and Temari's room, down the stairs, he couldn't help but wonder what her reaction was going to be.
As he passed the couch where an unconscious Bacchus lay, the man opened one of his eyes, saw Naruto, and immediately closed it again, thinking it to be an alcohol induced hallucination.
'There's no way Gaki-chan would wear that abomination...is there?'
Naruto then walked into the kitchen, just as Temari was biting into an apple, and asked, "Good morning, Temari-chan! What do you think of my new clothes?"
Hearing this, Temari looked at Naruto, chewed once, twice, three times, swallowed, then smiled a smile and spoke in a tone that sent the fear of death up his spine.
"Naruto-kun, what are you wearing?"
"It's a n-new outfit th-that Kiba gave m-me. He said that i-it was the u-ultimate in ninja w-wear." He quickly stammered out, before yelping in terror as the apple in Temari's hand exploded as she clenched her fist.
"Did he now? I guess I'll have to pay him a visit (suddenly, said tattoo faced boy shuddered, and decided to stay home that day). Now, why don't you put on something else, before we go to class?" Temari enquired, still with that terrifying smile and tone of voice.
Nodding vigorously, Naruto then ran upstairs to go change. As he was doing so, Temari heard Bacchus laughing from the couch, shouting, "HA, HA, HA, You're whipped Gaki-chan! That's why I just bang and bail! HA, HA, HA!" Before he too saw the shinigami as Temari giggled at his words.
"What was that, Bacchus-san?"
"N-nothing Temari-sama." Said the terrified alcoholic, making the female nod in satisfaction.
'I love being a girl.'
XxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX
I plan on having all of Naruto's Shakuton attacks be based off of death and killing, so while I do have a few jutsu I'm going to use, if you'd like to give me a few ideas, please give me the romaji, translation, and description, and I'll credit you if I use it.
Shakuton: Kajōsatsu (Scorch release: Extremely steaming murder) (cannon):user creates several red-orange flaming orbs that resemble small suns. These orbs rotate around the user and can be freely controlled to attack enemies. When an orb touches an opponent, it apparently evaporates all the water inside their body, leaving them in a mummified state. When this happens, steam can be seen emitting from the opponent's body. However, this technique is vulnerable to Water Release, which can be used to dissipate the heat, becoming steam.
The Kajosatsu's kanji is actually Chinese, and all of mine are Japanese, so...yeah, that'll probably explain why 'mushi' is in all of mine, because I guess it translates to steaming (fun fact, Gyakusatsu can mean both massacre and genocide, so I had to use a different kanji for each).
Shakuton: Jikko o mushi (Scorch release: Steaming execution) (mine): Naruto places his hand like a gun with his pointer and middle finger out and his thumb up, and a small red-orange fire-ball about two inches wide appears in front of them which is then shot at varying speeds depending on skill and chakra use at an opponent. Has same effects and weaknesses as Kajōsatsu, but only moves in straight line and cnnot be controlled. Assassination jutsu.
Shakuton: Gyakusatsu o mushi (Scorch release: Steaming Massacre) (mine): Naruto places both hands out like in Jikko o mushi, but places his elbows against his ribs, and quickly fires several small red-orange fire-balls at the enemies like a machine gun from both hands. Has same effects and weaknesses as Kajosatsu: only moves in straight line and cannot be controlled. Number, speed, and firing rate of attack depend on skill of usage and chakra amount/control. Used for either fast moving or multiple enemies.
Shakuton: Jenosaido o mushi (Scorch release: Steaming Genocide) (kinda mine): Incinerating flare technique from the anime, but slightly different. Several of the balls of fire combine into one, and go off like a nuke, turning all water within the blast radius, whether in the ground, in people, in animals, or in plants into steam. Weakness is water, and it's blast radius is dependent upon total number of orbs, amount of chakra used, skill with technique. In regards to the blast, you could stand an inch away, but if you're not within it, you're perfectly fine. Blast radius goes a maximum of one foot underground. Used for multiple enemies.

1: "..." Kinda looks like the Iron man mask doesn't it? "..."
2: Heterochromia FTW!
3: I got these off of google translate, I just put them in and picked whichever had the shortest romaji.
4: I think that's about how long it would take someone that age to do something like that, but I'm probably overestimating the difficulty of that.
5:I know that in the anime, during the Chunin Exams that the robes are blue, but in the manga they're green, so they're green here.
6: If you're wondering why he's so shy, it's because he's five, and he's never really had kindness except for the Hokage and Inu, and he's afraid she'll no longer be nice to him for the reason that no adult seems to like him.
7: I am American, and I already have 'football' so you can shove it if you don't like it! I'm kidding, but seriously, I call it soccer.
8: Resurrected Minato said so in one of the recent chapters, so that's how it is.
9: No, this is not a Naruto/Fairy Tail crossover. I just wanted Naruto to use his martial arts style, Chop Hanging Palm, because I think It'd be awesome for this story's Naruto.
10: Yes I know there's a difference between the Chop Hanging Palm and the Drunk-Chop Hanging Palm, just bear with me here.
