DSlifer: Chapter 3 of my story. Sorry if my update took so long, but it's school time and I got lot's to do. To any one who was curious about Naruto's bloodline limit, I got good news! It will be revealed in this chapter. Also I forgot to tell you people, italics will mean flashbacks. Of course I'll tell you when the flashbacks start and end but just felt like mentioning that.
Chapter 3: Six Years Later, Uzumaki Bloodline

6 years later, a 12 year old boy with blond hair and whisker marks was seen hanging around with two of his close friends. Marik and Ayana, the two children in the Shadow Clan whose age is the closest with Naruto, were talking with Naruto.

Ayana, age 12, sat with her cousin Marik and her friend Naruto. "You know, Naruto-kun, there's always something I've been wondering about."

Naruto looked curiously at her. "What do you mean?"

"We've traveled through so many villages and seen so much Jutsu's. You, Naruto-kun, had always asked them to teach you the Jutsu's. But for some strange reason, you could always perform the technique easily. I know that even though you have a photographic memory and can remember every Jutsu and Hand Seals, but I don't that is what caused you to master all those Jutsu."

Marik, age 14, agreed with his cousin. "I've always wondered about that too. It seems like a Bloodline Limit of some sort. You know, like with the Uchiha and the Sharangan."

Naruto looked embarrassed at the two. "Well... I'm not sure myself. But it just seems so easy."

"You know, out of our clan, you have the biggest chance of becoming the heir to the Shadow Clan," announced Ayana.

"Really? What about everyone else?" asked Naruto.

"Everyone else thinks so too. We heard that they think that you're powerful enough to be the heir."

The three children heard someone call them to go back to the hotel. Naruto after he parted with Ayana and Marik, went to a clearing away from the hotel. He sat down on the grass and sighed as he thought back to what Itachi had said to him the last time he had visited.

--F-L-A-S-H-B-A-C-K-S-T-A-R-T--

"Itachi-niisan! Why did you bring me so far away from the clan?" asked Naruto curiously.

"I got something to tell you, Naruto," Itachi said seriously. "Do you know the reason why the villagers back at Konoha hated you so much?"

Naruto shook his head slowly. "They kept calling me a monster."

Itachi explained about Kyuubi to Naruto. "So in the end, the Yondaime sealed the Kyuubi into his child. And that child is you."

Naruto was shocked at Itachi's words. "I'm the Yondaime's son? Why would he do something so horrible to me?"

"I think you made a mistake on that. Your father wanted the villagers to acknowledge you as a hero... the Bearer of the Youma Kyuubi. But the villagers, didn't realize that, so they attacked you hoping to get rid of the Kyuubi."

"So it wasn't really their fault."

"No. But do you want to know what you can do to stop the villagers from treating you like they normally did?"

"How?" asked Naruto anxiously.

"If you become the Hokage, then everyone will acknowledge you. But to become the Hokage, you have to be more powerful."

"Brother Itachi, why are you telling me this?" asked Naruto all of a sudden.

"It's about time you know. And if you can get the Kyuubi to let you use his power, then you can be unstoppable."

--F-L-A-S-H-B-A-C-K-F-I-N-I-S-H--

Naruto frowned after he remembered what Itachi told him about the Kyuubi. "If I could get the Kyuubi's power, then I could really be unstoppable. But how would I be able to do that? Guess I'll leave it to some other time in the future."

--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--

Naruto went back to his room in the hotel and jumped onto the bed. "There's must be something that'll tell me why i can learn these Jutsu's so simply. No wait! Of course, how could I forget about that?" Naruto smiled happily as he remembered the Scroll with the Uzumaki Bloodline. "I forgot all about that scroll!"

Naruto searched throughout his belongings and finally found the scroll he was searching for. Naruto took a big breath as he opened the scroll. "Yes!" screamed Naruto. "I did it!"

To the Uzumaki Heir,

Since you have opened this scroll, I guess it is safe to presume that you have already taken the first step of mastering our Family Bloodline.

As you may have suspected, our Bloodline gives the Uzumaki's perfect memories and the ability to learn any non-Bloodline Jutsu easily. If you have a very fast speed, and with our Uzumaki abilities, we could mimic our opponent's and make it appear as though we are copying their every move.

We Uzumaki's have a couple of very advanced Bloodline Jutsu's that will prove very useful. Take care to master them. But knowing that you are an Uzumaki, I know that it won't take you very long.

Never forget that our family's bloodline is using our opponent's power against them. Every Jutsu we have, everything about our bloodline is about using our opponent's to defeat themselves. The stronger our opponent is, the stronger the damage from our Jutsu's will do back to them.

Remember that our Bloodline is powerful, but not unbeatable. Also, we may be able to use our opponent's power against them, but that may not matter if they are too powerful.

Uzumaki Takuya

Naruto finished reading what was written on the first part of the scroll. "Now I understand. So it really was because of my Bloodline that I can master all those Jutsu's."

Naruto looked at the list of the Jutsu. He noticed that it considered 1 Ninjutsu, 1 Taijutsu, and 1 Genjutsu technique.

Ninjutsu:

Uzu Kawarimi no Jutsu-An Ninjutsu similar to the Kawarimi no Jutsu, with just the difference of instead of switching with any objects and people, you switch with yourself. What happens is that when you perform the seals, your main body becomes immobile and will vanish like a Bunshin when touched. In truth once the Jutsu is used, you will exit your body in a spirit form. When in spirit form, you will pass right through anything you touch. Once your main body is touched and had vanished, your spirit form will become real again, and you will be able to attack again. A hint to the future heir, if you time the time of when your body becomes hit along with your attack, you can catch your opponent's by surprise and deal a considerable amount of damage to them. Note that if you attack your opponent the exact moment they attack your body, the damage you inflict to them will double.

Taijutsu:

Uzu Shadow Fist Style- A Taijutsu attack that is both offensive and defensive. This style of Taijutsu focuses neither on strength nor speed. Instead it is based on countering your opponent's Taijutsu and rendering their attacks useless and exposing their weaknesses. Then strike while they are vulnerable. This attack is used to stop your opponent's attack and strike back with a forceful attack that allows you to follow up with more attacks. The more defense your opponent puts up to defend against your attacks, the more pain will be dealt.

Genjutsu:

Uzu Nemuri no Jutsu- An Genjutsu technique that makes your opponent fall asleep and fall victim to what ever you have in store for them inside their mind. This technique is not quite effective, but it has one major advantage. The more your opponent tries to fight against this technique, the more they will fall victim to it. The stronger your opponent's defense is, the stronger the Genjutsu will be against them. Note that this Jutsu will be useless and just be a waste of chakra if used against someone who has no defense against Genjutsu.

Naruto frowned a bit after he read the Jutsu. "I was expecting something much more powerful but I guess if it's in my family, I'll use it."

Naruto memorized the Seals and the form of fighting for the Jutsu's. "Alright! Now on to training!" yelled Naruto.

--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--

Meanwhile in a place far away from Naruto, Itachi and Kisame were sitting in a Ramen Stand. "So Itachi, why did you tell Naruto about the Kyuubi and that it wasn't the villagers fault for how he was treated?" asked Kisame.

Itachi laughed. "There's actually a couple of reasons I did that." Itachi finished eating and paid the owner. "First of all, I took a liking to the kid, and wanted him to know the truth. Second, is that I want him to become the Hokage. That way when he does, he will basically be in charge of the whole village. It will suit my goals more. "Third, I'm kind of sick of the Akatsuki. All we do is be sent on pointless and simple missions. I think by the time, Naruto grows up and can help me with my goal, I'll leave the Akatsuki and do something for myself."

"Well, I agree with you about the Akatsuki being a waste of time. We're not the only one's who think so too. I spoke with the other members and some share the same view as you."

"When the time comes, I'll recruit them then. I might need their help in what I'm going to do."

"What you going to do with the kid now?"

"Naruto? Bring him back to Konoha and let him become a Genin. Then have him work from there and start his goal of becoming the Hokage."

"Then shouldn't it be about time, you go and pick him up?"

Itachi smiled and vanished as he ran toward where Naruto is. Kisame laughed and followed his friend at an even pace.

--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--

"Naruto-kun!" screamed a loud and feminine voice.

Naruto after he had just finished training his Family Jutsu's appeared in front of Ayana. "Yes? I was training."

"Hotame-sensei wants to see you. Personally I think he wants to give something to you."

Naruto thanked Ayana and ran toward Hotame. He found him outside the hotel, with a strange look on his face.

"Hotame-sensei? Were you looking for me?" asked Naruto curiously.

"Yes, Naruto-kun, follow me." Naruto followed Hotame to the clearing Naruto was training in. "Naruto-kun, you have turned 12 this year. Am I correct?"

"Yep! So what is it?"

"Well, Itachi and I had discussed and said that you would leave your clan and go back to Konoha when you are 12. You are to be a Genin there. I just want to know, over these past 6 years, had I succeeded in causing you to stop you grudge against the villagers of Konoha?"

"Well, I haven't completely forgiven them if that's what you're asking. But last year, when we were in the Village of Sand, and I met Gaara-san, I finally realized what it was like in another point of view. Also after Brother Itachi came and told me the cause of the Villagers actions, I suppose I would be able to forgive them a bit. But I still think they were wrong for attacking me."

"But will you want to get your revenge against them?"

"Not if they don't do anything to me from now on."

Hotame looked glad after he heard that, and smiled happily. "I'm glad Naruto. Also I have one more thing to talk to you about. Since you will be leaving the day after tomorrow, and this may be the last time I can talk to you privately, I have something I want you to have."

Hotame took out a big scroll and opened it. "This is out Clan's Sacred Treasure... the Summoning Contract with the Shadow Wolves. Sign your name here and also put your handprint in blood right underneath."

Naruto did as he was told and afterwards, Hotame closed back up the scroll. "What now?"

"Now whenever you want to summon a Shadow Wolf, perform these Hand Seals along with a bit of your blood. The type of Shadow Wolf and its ability will differ with the amount of Chakra you use."

Naruto was handed a scroll. He was told to read the scroll and memorize it. "This scroll will tell you the different Shadow Wolves you can summon and what their abilities are. You should be able to remember everything with your memory so there's no point of having you carry the scroll around."

Naruto finished reading and after making sure he memorized everything, he returned the scroll. "Naruto, you have just been granted a very powerful power. Shadow Wolves are one of the more unique types of summoning, because they are not from the Clan of Wolves. It was rumored that the Shadow Wolves were once Demons who had a change of heart and gave our clan the honor of being able to summon them. I hope you don't misuse the power that was just handed to you."

Naruto nodded and then smiled mischievously. "Hotame-sensei! Since I will be leaving soon, don't you think we should have a last meal together?"

"I suppose..." Hotame said as he with a bit of worry in his voice.

"Ok! Time for Ramen!" Naruto ran off yelling 'Ramen'.

Hotame was left chasing after the kid with a very worried look on his face.

--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--

At the Ramen Stand, Naruto had just finished his 20th bowl and left for the hotel happily. Hotame sighed as he paid the extremely heavy bill. "How does that kid eat so much?" He asked to the owner.

"I have no idea, but I hope more people like him would show up." The Stand Owner said as he started laughing.

"Where does he fit all that food? If I had to pay for this food for 6 years I would have gone bankrupt in less than a month. Thank god he doesn't eat that much when we made him try any other food. What is it about Ramen that makes him eat so much?"

--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--

Two day's later, Itachi found Naruto still asleep in his room. Naruto's room was a mess with clothes scattered everywhere. There were a couple of feathery ornaments hanging on the walls. Itachi laughed silently as he saw Naruto sleeping on the bed with his upper torso hanging at the edge of the bed about to fall onto the floor. "He still hasn't changed his sleeping habits."

Itachi smirked evilly as he jumped to the top of the room and put chakra on his feet to stick to the ceiling. He walked so he was right next to Naruto. "This should be interesting to watch." He took a feather from the wall ornament and slightly tickled Naruto's exposed stomach.

Naruto woke up immediately afterwards and crashed onto the floor. "Ahhh! Itachi-niisan! What did you do?" asked Naruto grumpily. Itachi smirked as an answer.

"Get dressed, we have to leave soon. There's enough time for you to say your goodbyes if you hurry." Itachi left the room and woke up the rest of the clan in a more normal way than Naruto's.

--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--(((o)))--

Naruto, Itachi, and the rest of the Shadow Clan stood in the Lobby looking sadly at Naruto. Naruto sadly said his goodbyes and promised that he'll return one day and when he does, he'll become the Hokage. Naruto received a couple of gifts from his closer friends and then he and Itachi left the village and traveled to Konoha.


DSlifer: Finally finished. Sorry if it seems too rushed again, and also sorry if I seem to be repeating myself too much when explaining about the Jutsus. I just wanted to make sure that none of you readers will get confused. Tell me if your still a bit confused about them and I'll explain a bit more another time. Oh yes, I forgot to tell you that the Uzu Shadow Fist Style is like a faster version of Tai Chi. And I hope all of you know what Tai Chi is.
