Legend speaks of a giant nine tailed fox which attacked the village of Konohagakure no sato. The attack was unsuccessful because of the most powerful shinobi of the village, the fourth hokage also known as the Yondaime. In exchange for his life, the demon fox was stopped and sealed into a newborn baby. 'Till this day, the legacy of the great fourth hokage lives on. Unbeknowest, the very boy the demon fox was sealed in, struggles through his life.

"Wait a second, what is this Katsugan thing I keep reading in this scroll?" asked Naruto as he read out from a quite largely sized scroll.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Why are you here and what is your purpose?" asked one of two shinobi guards that were standing by the gates.

"The Katsugan is the most powerful bloodline associated with one's eye. It is able to perform many things that one couldn't even dream of. But we are not after it."

"How could we trust you?" asked the other guard

"If we were to want to take the bloodline for ourselves, we would have several years ago."

"And how might I ask that you could have even if you wanted to?" asked the first guard.

"There are lands far beyond of your country, most being much stronger than yours, we come from there as elites."

"We do not need to explain of the explicit details, but you must let us through."

"We cannot let you through, prepare travellers." said guard.

"Things sure have changed since that day, eh brother?"

"Yeah."

"And they've grown much weaker, maybe too much to be alm about, they'd be massacured if there happened to be a war,"

"Yeah, I know."

"Are we going to do anything?"

"No, we have no right to meddle with another's destiny, let them get out of their own mess,"

"Heh, never changed a bit,"

"Hmph."

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"What the hell is this technique!" yelled Naruto.

"Alright Naruto, you should hand over the scroll now, so we can return to the hokage. You're in a whole lot of trouble."

"What? Oh, Kakashi-sensei, err...I can explain," stuttered Naruto.

"Yeah, yeah, the higher ranked jounin were sent after the scroll, we were expected a jounin level shinoubi or higher. Lucky that I found you eh Naruto?" said Kakashi.

"Yeah," said Naruto.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

'WHAM!'

"What the hell obaa-chan!" cried Naruto in pain as he was knocked down into the floor.

'WHAM'

"OW! Jeez why do old people hit so hard!" cried Naruto in pain once again.

'WHAM!"

"Naruto! What in the hell's name were you thinking when you stole the forbidden scroll!" shouted Tsunade.

"I needed to get stronger, to get Sasuke back!" replied Naruto quite strongly.

Tsunade sighed and sat down on a chair by her desk.

"Naruto, I'll tell you this, 'He's not comming back,' and even if you did manage to bring him back with brute force, what good will it do him?" asked Tsunade.

"I don't know, but I have to, I promised Sakura-chan!" replied Naruto.

"Naruto, I'm telling you this, give up!" said Tsunade.

"..." nothing came from Naruto as his face was covered by shadow. At this point Tsunade was about to speak again, but suddenly Naruto raised his head.

"I won't give up. I will get stronger. And I'm bringing him back. I promised Sakura-chan the promise of a lifetime. I won't go back on my words. And that's my way of the ninja!" said Naruto, sentence in fragments.

"Heh, damn brat knows how to pursuade someone," thought Tsunade.

"Fine then, I will give you this mission," said Tsunade as she held out a scroll with a 'A' on it.

"This mission is for you to go to the cloud country and see of what is going on," said Tsunade.

"The cloud and leaf are not of good terms so be careful," said Tsunade, "And the ranking may change depending on the situation."

Then Naruto smiled. A true smile of which Tsunade could see the bright sparkle of Naruto's deep blue eyes which seemed to have no end.

"I won't fail you Tsunade-sama," said a determened Naruto.

"There it is again! It's the feeling I got from before!" thought Tsunade, "This is one crazy kid,"
