A/N: Okay this is my first Naruto fic. So please be nice. I know the storyline is a little cliché but hopefully it won't stay that way. I am trying to change it from the norm. Anway this will be yaoi so if your not a fan please don't flame me.

Disclaimer: I do NOT own Naruto or any of it's characters. Please don't sue.

"Henge!!!"

The jutsu that should have been a mirror image of Iruka was not. Telling him sorry he failed he called up the next person after Uzumaki Naruto. Failed, yet again. All those other people are happy too. Why do they hate me so much? It's not fair! I didn't do anything to them.

The tears he was trying to hold in couldn't be held in much longer. Not caring if anyway saw him leave, he gets up and runs toward the hot springs. By the time he got the there the tears were gone and there was a sullen anger. Anger at Iruka, anger at the people, and anger at himself.

"Failed the test? You know there's a way you could pass. All you need is a certain scroll."

Sitting in front of the recently stolen Scroll of Seals, he prepared himself to try and do the Kage Bushin no Jutsu. Little did he know was the Hokage was sending out all shin obi in search of him and the scroll. Mizuki is so cool for helping me like this.


"Hey, fox-brat, are you here?"

"What are you talking about, Mizuki?"

"I'm talking about taking the scroll and killing you. I'll say that the kyuubi started to break free with you holding the scroll of seals and the only way to stop you is to kill you. While I'll tell them that I will also say that the scroll was destroyed in the process and keep for myself."

Eyes widening , he backs up. Suddenly Iruka-sensei jumped in and told him to run away with the scroll. Grabbing the scroll he ran. All of the sudden in the middle of his running away he slammed into something. That something turned out to be a someone. It was a man who had long white hair and wore a scroll on his back.

"Eh, kid, what are you doing with the Scroll of Seals."

"Please you gotta help Iruka-sensei!"

"Iruka?"

"Yeah! Mizuki-sensei attacked me for the scroll and Iruka-sensei stopped him."

Nodding his head the man grabbed Naruto by his collar an they started to go to where the two shinobi fought. As they grew closer to the fight they heard Mizuki ask 'why would Iruka protect the fox-demon.' Shock flashed across Naruto's face and mild surprise across the man's. Iruka was slammed into a tree and knocked unconscious but not before they heard him say 'because he wanted too.'

"Iruka-sensei!! You'll pay for that."

"What are you going to do, demon?"

"KAGE BUSHIN NO JUTSU!!"

Hundreds of clones appeared and attacked Mizuki. Upon Mizuki's defeat they disappeared in little puffs of smoke. The real Naruto rushed over to Iruka.

"Iruka-sensei are you alright?"

"Yes and come here, Naruto. Congratulations for graduating."

Coming closer to Iruka he watched his sensei take off his hitae-ate and give it to him. Grinning he took of his goggles and put on the hitae-ate.

"Guess you didn't need my help after all, baka. THEN WHY DID YOU DRAG ME HERE!!"


"After much deliberation I have decided that the Genin Uzumaki Naruto is not at fault. Also he will be put through training as requested."

The Hokage told the assembled ninjas. The Jounin instructors stood by waiting to be told their Genin teams. Instructors from the academy also stood by. Hokage began to tell the teams.

"...and team seven will be Uchiha Sasuke, Haruno Sakura, and Kyohei Taka."

Iruka stood in shock, Naruto was supposed to be on team seven. Also the Hokage-sama said Naruto would be trained. Kakashi was one of the best possible teachers for someone like Naruto. Who was going to train the rambunctious blond Genin? Who would request to train Naruto? Sealed inside of him was the evil nine-tails.

"Kakashi, you would have been the one training Naruto, but it seems that Jiraiya wants to train him."

Gasps of shock were heard, the legendary Sennin requesting to train someone was unheard of. Also for him to request Naruto the dead last in the academy was also unheard of. It would have made more sense for him to request to train some like Uchiha Sasuke. Most would think him a better choice to receive that training too.

"But the nine-tails..."

"ENOUGH! I did not do this on purpose, the Sennin Jiraiya has requested to do this. If you have a problem take it up with him. Also never mention the nine-tails in my presence again. You have your teams now. Dismissed."

Jiraiya stood outside the room waiting to speak with his old sensei. When he sensed the chakra's of the other ninjas disappear he entered the room. The old man looked over at him when he entered then went back to looking at the stars.

"Why I requested to train him is because he is Yondaime's legacy. Also the wish of the fourth that Naruto be seen as a hero did not happen. Instead he is viewed as the demon himself," Jiraiya began to explain. Holding up his hand in silence the Hokage began to speak "Jiraiya, you don't need to explain to me because I already understand."

Nodding his head in farewell, he left the Hokage in deep thought. Yondaime's legacy, such apt words to explain Uzumaki Naruto. Approaching Naruto's apartment, he pushes the door open and enters. A cautious face looks at him and recognition takes a moment.

"You!!"

"Pack your bags, kid. We're going training."

A/N: Well tell me how you all think. Because depending on what you say this story will be continued or not. Probably I will continue but could someone please tell me whether they think I should or not? Oh well, reviews required and some nice critique. Ja ne.
