Authors Note: Sorry about the late update, im a very lazy guy and passed up 3 perfectly good days to write this. but i finally got around to it, and here it is, chapter 3.

Also, since i want to avoid the copywrite laws, and since i forgot the last few chapters...I don't own naruto, that was Kishimoto's god given right!

Chapter 3

Kakashi and Kirsu arrived at the gates of Konoha 2 days later. After much more questioning from Kakashi, he had found out that Kirsu did actually know a lot about Konoha, among other things. As they approched the gate, two chuunin guards walked out of the guardpost just near the gate.

" State your name, rank and purpose." one chuunin said.

" Hatake Kakashi, Jounin, returning from an A class mission".

"And the kid?" the other chuunin asked.

" He's with me, I found him on the way back from my mission, says he doesn't have a home, so, after some questioning, I decided I could see if the Hokage could make him a citizen here." He stated.

" Allright, you can go on in." Chuunin #1 replied.

The two chuunin went back into the gaurdpost and opened the gate. The gates opened majestically, and with a quick blinding flash of light from the inside, Konoha stood in all its glory.

" Wow..." Kirsu gasped in awe. " I can't believe I'm actually here, Konoha-gakure!". They walked on through the gates. Konoha was a large city, one of the largest in the known Naruto world. Kirsu knew that, he'd seen the pictures before, but nothing could have prepared him for this. " Konoha is HUGE!" Kirsu yelled. " I've seen the pictures, but those do it no justice at all! WOW!". Kakashi just looked at him with a passing eye.

" Allright kid, i'm going to take you to the Hokage first, we can't have you running around without permission, you know? You'd get caught by ANBU and killed for trespassing." He stated.

" Yeah ok, I getcha, just lead the way Kakashi-san!" Kirsu replied back vigorously. Kakashi jumped on top of the nearest building, Kirsu following suit, still having a hard time believeing that he could actually jump that high. I can't believe this! I can jump super high, run fast, jump across buildings, this is sooo COOL! Kirsu exclaimed in his head. In just a few minutes, he could see the Hokage tower. They arrived and jumped through a window in the hallway leading to the Hokage's office. Kakashi walked up to two more chuunin guards guarding the door.

" Let me through to see the Hokage, urgent business." he stated. The two guards looked at him then looked behind him, regarding the kid with the bewildered expression on his face.

" Allright, I suppose. Hokage-sama's probably looking for an excuse to get away from all that paperwork for a moment anyways."

He opened up the door. It revealed a large, open room with a large desk at the far end, just in front of a large window. The Hokage sat at the desk, just behind a rather large stack of papers. He looked up from what he was reading to see Kakashi and a boy he'd never seen before standing in the entranceway. PHEW! finally, something other than paperwork, he thought to himself.

" Come in, Kakashi. What do you need?" he asked.

" Hokage-sama, I've just returned from my mission. I found this kid, Kirsu, while I was there. He's quite an interesting kid, and he asked if he could become part of the village." Kakashi replied. the 3rd looked at Kirsu for a moment.

He looks just like HIM! he thought. " What's so interesting about him?" he asked.

" I think i'll just let him tell you himself, Hokage-sama.". The Hokage looked at Kirsu again, he had a slightly glazed-over, sad expression in his eyes, which quickly vanished when he noticed the Hokage looking right at him.

" Konichiwa, Hokage-sama! It's a pleasure to finally meet you!" Kirsu replied quickly. Man, I was expecting Tsunade as the Hokage, I guess i've been sent back further than i thought. I wonder if I should tell him... Kirsu thought. " This may sound unbelievable, I didn't believe it myself at first." Kirsu told him. He then went on to explain where he was from, how he thought he had gotten here, and how he had helped Kakashi. " So to sum it up, I know basically what's going to happen for the next year or so. I also know a few jutsu's, and the Jyuuken. And as far as the hidden villages go, Konoha is where i'd like to hold my alliegance." The Hokage looked at him with a slightly disbelieving look in his face. Though with what he had just heard, as well as Kakashi's viewpoint of this matter, he really had no choice to believe what he had just been told.

" Someone like you would be very well appreciated here, my boy. With knowledge of the future, we can save countless lives. I'm sure we can find a place for you. " the 3rd replied.

" Arigato, Hokage-sama. But I'm afraid that I can't devulge the information that I know, it could cause something bad to happen." Kirsu stated sorrowfully. " I would really like to help, but I don't want there to be any dire consequences of my actions."

" I see..." the Hokage said with a knowing look on his face. " You are a very carefull person, Kirsu. A ninja must allways be carefull of what information he shares with who. I suppose I understand where you're coming from, though it is a disappointment." He said. " Well im sure we can settle you in to life in Konoha either way. Your help will be much appreciated. But there is one more thing. I can't just let you become a ninja here, not without passing the academy. As such, at the begining of next week, you can take the graduating exam for the academy. From there we can have you placed in a genin team and start doing missions." the Hokage told him.

" That is perfectly fine with me, Hokage-sama, i'd like a few days to see what i can actually DO. But I do have a quick question, if I may?" Kirsu asked.

" Go ahead.." the Hokage replied.

" ...Has Naruto graduated from the academy yet?" Kirsu asked nonchalantly. The Hokage stared in disbelief, how did he know about Naruto? He coughed it out of his mind,

" Naruto has not graduated yet, though he will be taking the exam again on Monday, you shall be in that class as well for that exam."

" Arigato, Hokage-sama, if it isn't too much to ask, is it possible for me to be put on the same genin team as him when he graduates on Monday?" He asked. " I'd like to help out with what will happen if I can, some of the things he and his team went through were rather dark."

" I'll see what I can do. If you think that doing so may ease some stress for later, then it's all I can do to see that that happens." the Sandaime told him.

Kirsu bowed gratefully. " Arigato, Hokage-sama. I do believe that doing so may help drastically later on. Is there anything else you need of me? Does that mean i'm now a citizen?"

"Indeed it does, Kirsu, you are now officially a part of Konoha. And at the moment, I can't think of anything else I need of you." the Hokage stated.

" Great then. Is it possible to have someone escort me around the city so that I may familiarize myself?" He asked

" Of course, Kirsu." He turned to Kakashi. " Do you have enough time to show our new resident around a bit, Kakashi?" He asked.

" I believe I have some time, Hokage-sama." He turned to Kirsu. " This way, kid. I'll show you to a few major spots as well as where you will be staying." Kakashi told Kirsu.

" Arigato, Kakashi-san. Your help is greatly appreciated. If it isn't too much trouble, could I see my apartment first?" Kirsu inquired.

" Sure, that's where I was planing to show you first anyways." He turned to the Hokage.
" Hokage-sama." he bowed. Kakashi then started to walk out the door. Kirsu bowed his thanks to the Hokage one more time, and then followed Kakashi out the door and through the window they came through again.

I should be able to have the next chapter out in a couple of days, The next chapter will be of the few days before Kirsu takes the exam. Chapter 5 will mirror episode 1 of naruto and from there on will be the series.
