A/N: Sorry for the long break, to make up for it, I made this one extra long. Well, actually, this one was just a very long one. I still need a Japanese/English translator site though. Please, does anybody know a site?

Naruto was bored, he was very bored, and he was very irritated as well. He was assigned to Team 7, with that annoying pink-haired kunoichi he met earlier, and that broody raven-haired guy sitting near him. Where was the damn instructor? Naruto really wanted to get his film developed so he could find out what was on it

The kunoichi was nothing but trouble, that was evident from the way she fawned over the other guy and kept trying to start a conversation for the past three hours. The other guy though…Naruto knew he was strong. Mr. Top-of-the-Class had sat for three hours straight through that annoying kunoichi's pleads for conversation, and did nothing more than blink and stare off into space. Naruto was impressed; he was pretty sure that he'd crack after the first thirty minutes and start yelling at what's-her-name to shut up, and that was when he was trying.

Naruto hadn't lost three hours of his life for nothing though; his first hour was spent rigging a chain reaction of pranks and traps for their bastard of a jounin-instructor. Then he had bugged the Kyubbi into teaching him some more jutsus, though he had only gotten two out of him-the stingy jutsu miser that he was-he had to admit, they sounded pretty decent and the effects sounded pretty cool. Now though, Naruto had already gotten all the jutsus out of the Kyubbi for the week, had already practiced them till he could do them in his sleep, and his instructor still wasn't here! Sighing, Naruto pulled out a scroll with instructions on the usage of poisons and where they naturally occurred and started studying.

Sasuke was bored, though he didn't show it. In his mind was only two things, how strong his teammates were against him, and how much stronger he needed to get to surpass hi brother. He had already figured the kunoichi to be totally useless, or worse, a hindrance to their group, the other one though…he was interesting. He heard that he was dead last in the class, and that he had failed the genin examination two times, including this year, so how was he here now? He was proficient in traps though, Sasuke had to admit that when he saw the myriad of pain the victim would go through, and that was in a classroom with limited and nonlethal elements, he wondered what he would do in battle situations. No matter, he was good in traps but that seemed all he was good in, he'd seen his results in target practice, his shruiken hit the outer rings sometime, usually they just grazed the target, and his aim with a kunai was abysmal at best. Well, he did have good aim, if he managed to throw correctly, most of the time the kunai hit ring first, sometimes even sideways. Was that even possible? And his outfit…orange jacket, orange pants, and he hadn't even bothered to cover his bright blond hair; any halfway decent shinobi would have spotted him on even the darkest of nights. No, he was definitely weak.

Oh Kami-sama…Am I dreaming? I'm actually on a team with the Uchiha Sasuke! I can't believe it! I'm with the 'heartthrob' Uchiha! Beat that Ino-pig! Sakura's thoughts were mostly that for the first five minutes. Afterwards, she focused mainly on trying to pry a discernable sound out of the Uchiha; she had tried for three hours straight and failed to get him to respond with anything more than blinking. Casting her eyes around for more subjects to talk about, no matter how lame, Sakura noticed the traps that her other teammate had built. Of course she had noticed them before, two hours ago while he was building them, but now…Sakura was slightly intrigued, casting her eyes around the room, she noticed other traps and was slightly impressed with the intricacy that they showed. What was his name again? Naruto! Naruto was definitely a specialist in placing traps; then again, I've heard that he was always the prankster so this probably came from years of practice, usually at the cost of someone else. Sakura looked over at him, slightly amused as his nonchalant attitude with his feet on his desk and at his face placed in a frown as he studied the scroll that was laid on his lap. His hands held the ends of the scroll so Sakura couldn't read it. Naruto then shifted slightly, allowing Sakura a quick glimpse at the title on the back. She gave a slight gasp, Is that what I think it is? Curiosity got the better of her, and she called out, "Naruto? What's that scroll that you're reading?"

Naruto glanced up, then held up the scroll so she could see the title, "Introduction to Throwing Weaponry" Holding it up for a full three seconds, Naruto stared at her, watching her for any sign of reaction.

Sakura just stared, she could have sworn that she saw a high-level medical scroll on poisons, but he had just held up his scroll for the world to see…and it taught basic abilities that every genin needed! Her face stayed impassive for several moments, then her rage at the impossibility of what she was seeing got loose. "WHAT THE HELL! YOU CAN'T EVEN THROW A KUNAI!"

Secretly, Naruto was relieved, Whew, I thought she saw what I had here, thank Kami for the Henge. Out loud, Naruto retorted indignantly , "I can to throw a kunai!" then mumbling a bit, "I just don't always hit the target point first."

"Gah! How did you ever pass the genin exam!" she retorted. She knew she had hit a nerve there when his face twitched slightly, triumphant, she followed up, "I knew it! Iruka-sensei felt sorry for you, so he passed you even after you failed twice!"

Glaring the pink-haired kunoichi, Naruto quickly rolled up his scroll, put it away, then stomped on his desk and spoke, with great menace, "Shut up. I became a genin through hard work, despite my short comings, and Iruka-sensei passed me because he judged me worthy of this hitae-ate."

Retorting, "Oh? Then what did you do to have Iruka-sensei judge you worthy of a leaf hitae-ate?"

Naruto remained silent, his face not moving as his eyes peered into hers-and she could almost feel his ice-blue eyes sizing her up, taking measurements and performing calculations. Finally, his mouth said, "Listen to the rumors, then ask Iruka-sensei." Startled, Sakura looked back at him questionably, while Naruto got off his desk and fell asleep. Shrugging it off as him being dramatic, Sakura went back to fawning over Sasuke.

A silver-haired jounin stared at the mess in front of him. The Hokage waited silently, his aged face expressionless as he watched the jounin look around the small and shabby apartment. Returning to the table, he picked up a discarded carton of milk, and silently noted that it was expired. Walking into the kitchen, he opened the cabinets, and saw rows upon rows of ramen. Opening the refrigerator, he noted with some surprise that there were some fresh fruit vegetables inside, closing it, and opening the ramen cabinets again, he noticed that a about half of them were green, picking one up, he saw that it was vegetable-flavored. He looked over at the Hokage, a silent statement in his one visible eye. The Hokage nodded and answered, "I know it's weird Kakashi,"

"It kind of goes beyond weird; this kid is a ramen addict, and a slob, which should mean that he's an unhealthy eater, so why does he have fresh fruit and vegetable-flavored ramen?"

The Hokage nodded, "I know, I've been trying for years to get the kid to eat anything but ramen, and he just whines and protests as loudly as possible, especially if its healthy. Then something-or more likely, someone-just comes along and he suddenly stops by the market every few days to pick up some fruits and veggies." Then the Hokage merely looked at Kakashi, though he felt it more as a glare, "This is why I want you to teach him Kakashi, I want you to find out who is having this much influence over Naruto." Kakashi merely nodded, then disappeared in a poof of ninja smoke.

Naruto had only been napping for ten minutes when he felt his toe twitch a bit. Instantly forgetting about sleep, Naruto bolted upright, the picture of the perfect student, and started staring at the doorway. Both Sasuke and Sakura noticed his sudden movement, and looked at what was getting his utmost attention. The door opened…

Kakashi was sauntering around town, in no hurry at all, his nose buried in his Icha Icha Paradise book and giggling like a young girl. People walking past looked at him strangely, but overall he was paid no special attention to. He walked into the Academy, nose buried into his book, and nonchalantly strolled down the hallways. Finding the room where his students were, he put his book away, after all, first impressions were very important, and opened the door…

Immediately the eraser held between the doorway and the doorjamb fell, Kakashi stopped short, and caught the eraser in his hands, it was then that he noticed the string tied to it, and jumped forward as he felt something smack onto his back. Hearing something sizzling and thinking it was an explosive tag, Kakashi immediately dropped the eraser as he frantically reached behind him in trying to pull it off. A reddish powder fell around him, and, closing his watering eye, he started sneezing furiously. As he stepped forward a bit, his foot stopped short of the bright-colored gumballs scattered on the floor, and instead stepped onto an empty space large enough for his foot. That turned out to be a huge mistake, as numerous pencils-unsharpened-were suddenly launched from a desk. Kakashi managed to deflect most of them with a kunai, but a lot of them managed to hit his vest and stick there, thanks to the glue that was generously smeared on each of them. The blocked ones fell onto the floor, and hit the bright-colored balls…which turned out to be smoke bombs.

Lots of explosions ensued, and multi-colored smoke could be seen covering half of the room. Naruto had looked on at his pranks with a huge grin plastered all over his face, while Sakura was just stunned at the thought of the trouble that they would get in. Sasuke wore a slight smirk on his face, which immediately changed into a frown as he thought how he might get out of such a trap. If the decoy tag was replaced with a real one, the pepper with poison, and the pencils with knives…Sasuke frowned, it look like that there wasn't any way to get around it; once someone opened the door, they were stuck in the trap and had to face whatever came. Could the dead last be smarter than me? No, I was top shinobi. If he was really so smart, he would have passed earlier. Looking over at the said shinobi, he was startled to see him looking at him. As if he read his mind, he grinned. Sasuke was infuriated at such a grin, How dare a dead-last shinobi think himself to be on par with me! Then he noticed Naruto pointing at the smoke and then pointing up, then he started to crouch under his desk. Looking puzzled, Sasuke looked up, and saw it, quickly, he scramble under his desk as well. Sakura, hearing the sudden commotion on her side of the room, turned and saw Naruto the way he was; under a desk and looking ridiculous as he grinned and was pointing at the still smoky side, then at the ceiling. Turning in the towards Sasuke and about to make a comment about how stupid Naruto was, she fell silent as she saw her love in the same position as Naruto, but scowling. Not wanting him to think that she was better than him, sitting while he was crouching on the floor, she scrambled off the desk, and under it, and just in time.

The smoke from the smoke-bombs had finally reached the sensors on the ceiling, and, Fire country being fire country, the exquisite sprinklers came on and was localized to just that room, presumably soaking everybody, and hopefully, smothering out the fire.

Safe under the desks, Naruto grinned at his teammates and gave them the double thumb-ups. Sakura was just stunned at how well planned this was, and Sasuke just scowled back at him, until Naruto stared at him with ice-blue eyes for a moment. Sasuke was stunned, he blinked, but he just saw warm sky-blue eyes staring back. Suitably shaken, Sasuke just focused his attention back on their poor jounin instructor while thinking about that cold, calculating look, and wondering whether he had imagined it or not.

After five very long and very wet minutes, the sprinklers shut off, and Team 7 came out from under the desks while a very wet Kakashi stared right back at them. Some how, his white hair was still the way it was, even after the shower, but his eye was bloodshot red, and some of the pepper was still on him, soaked into his vest so there were red patches here and there. About twenty pencils decorated the front of his vest and the shins of his pants were slightly burned from the explosions, with small holes here and there. He looked over each of the members of Team 7: from the nervous Sakura, to the scowling Sasuke, to the grinning Naruto. Holding his elbow in his hand, Kakashi placed his right hand under his chin, and stated, "I would say that my first impression of you, though very impressed, is that I hate you." And so saying, a bucket that was before balanced on the board, was now over filling with liquid and spilled, right onto Kakashi's hair and completely soaking him in pink dye. At this, the gloomy statement was dissolved with Naruto's maniacal laughter.

Ignoring both that fact that Naruto was literally rolling on the ground laughing and that he was completely clothed in items of various shades of pink, Kakashi started sloshing his way towards the door and said, "We'll meet on the roof."

Team 7 just gawked at him for a second, then each broke into their respective reactions. Sasuke just sulked, and headed for the door, Sakura hit Naruto over the head and yelled at him for making the instructor hate them before running after Sasuke. Naruto just nursed the bump on his head before grinning again and going towards the window.

So what did you think Kyubbi? In his head, all Naruto could hear was maniacal laughter bouncing in the corridors of his mind as the great Kyubbi was acting just like Naruto was a few moments ago. Grinning, Naruto opened the window, applied chakra to his feet and started walking up the wall. A few feet from the top, Naruto lied down on the wall and started to climb the rest of the way. Trying to pretend that he was worse than he seemed, he made a lot of noise, rattled around, and eventually asked for Kakashi's help.

Kakashi was slightly surprised that a shinobi as reputed as bad as he was could climb a few floors as fast and as silent as he could, but then have to have help for the last few feet. Shrugging, Kakashi pulled Naruto up onto the roof while the door opened. Both Sasuke and Sakura were slightly surprised that Naruto was already on the roof, well, half on, but just chalked it down as trying to make a flashy entrance.

When everybody was seated, Kakashi said, "So, tell us about your self, name, likes, dislikes, hobbies, dreams for the future, stuff like that."

Sakura said, "Well, why don't you start."

"Alright, my name is Hatake Kakashi. I have no desire to tell you guys about my likes and dislikes. Dreams for the future…? Hmm…Well I have lots of hobbies…"

Whispering, Sakura said, "So all we learned was his name?"

"Alright, who's next?"

True to his mask, Naruto raised his hand into the air and yelled, "Oooh, me! Me! Me!"

Ignoring him, Kakashi pointed at Sasuke, "You, guy in the blue. You can start off."

Sasuke just replied, " Uchiha Sasuke, my likes are training, my dislikes are annoying girls and dobes. My hobbies are training and getting stronger. I don't really want to use the word 'dream', but I do have an ambition, to revive my clan and to kill a certain man."

Kakashi though, Ah, he hasn't changed after all.

Sakura just smiled shyly at him, That's so cool!

Naruto just frowned slightly, Hm, at his level, maybe not for several decades.

Kakashi then pointed to Sakura, "You, Pinky, you're next."

Frowning slightly at the name Pinky, Sakura replied, "Haruno Sakura. My likes are…" here she glanced in Sasuke's direction and squealed, continuing, "My dislikes are idiots, blondes, and especially Naruto! I don't really have any hobbies though, or any goals…"

Kakashi looked slightly bored, Hm, seems like the female adolescent mind is concentrated around boys rather than getting stronger…

Naruto was having extreme difficulty refraining himself from rolling his eyes, No hobbies? Then what the hell do you count being a Sasuke fan-girl? An occupation?

Kakashi didn't even have to point to Naruto before he started shouting, "My turn! Uzumaki Naruto! I like cup ramen. What I like even more is the restaurant ramen Iruka-sensei buys me. I don't like the three-minute wait for the cup ramen to cook. My hobbies are pranks and eating lots of ramen…

Kakashi was by now slightly cold and irritated, from the all the water soaked into his clothes, Is all this kid thinks about ramen? Then what the hell are fruit and vegetables doing in his apartment?

Naruto was finishing, "My goal is to become the greatest Hokage ever!"

Everybody stared at him for a moment, Sakura yelled, "Hokage? Don't be ridiculous, you're still learning how to throw weapons!", Sasuke snorted, then went back to staring off into space, and Kakashi was just looking at him lazily while his mind was running furiously.

Naruto yelled back at Sakura, "I will become Hokage! And then everybody will respect me!"

Kakashi picked up on the second part of that statement, Could that be a clue to his actions?

Sasuke commented, "As if anyone would respect you dobe."

Naruto screamed, "Why you…" and was hit back by Sakura as she yelled, "Don't you dare touch Sasuke-kun!"

Kakashi coughed, getting everybody's attention, "Well that's enough of that. We'll start our duties tomorrow."

Naruto yelled, "Alright, what kind of duties?"

"Well, first we'll do something together, just the four of us."

"What? What?"

"Survival training."

Everybody had a puzzled expression on their face, Sakura said, "Survival training? Why is that our duty? Didn't we already do a lot of training at the Academy?"

"This isn't normal training, and I'll be your opponent tomorrow."

Naruto wore a genuine puzzled expression on his face, "Huh? Then what is it?"

At this, Kakashi looked down and his shoulders started to shake. Sakura asked, "Hey, what's so funny sensei?"

Kakashi looked up, "No, it's just that…when I tell you guys this, you'll definitely flip."

Naruto looked at Kakashi funnily, "Huh? Flip? Why's that?"

"Because of the 27 graduates, only 9 of them will stay on as genin. Everybody else will be sent back to the Academy for more training. It's an extremely hard training exercise with a failure rate of over 66!"

Everybody was silent as they silently contemplated their fate tomorrow. Kakashi just laughed and said, "I told you would flip."

Naruto finally shook off his shock to ask, "Then what was the point of graduating?"

"Oh that? That was just so as to weed out the weaklings, and select those that have a sensible chance of becoming genin."

Naruto just screamed, "Whaaaaaat!"

Kakashi ignored him, "Tomorrow, you'll be judged on the training field. Bring all your shinobi tools, and don't eat breakfast, unless you enjoy throwing up." Digging into his pouch, he dug out three sheets, and handed them to everybody, "These transcripts tell you everything you need to know. See you there at six tomorrow." And with that, he left in a poof of ninja smoke.

Naruto just barely glanced at the page, before he turned silent again and looked over at what everybody else was doing. Sakura was frantically studying the page while Sasuke had done as he did and was now in deep thought. Stretching as he got up, Naruto said his goodbyes-which were received with silence and glares. Shrugging it off, Naruto started leaping across the roofs towards the photo shop. Once there, he dropped off his rolls of film, was told to come back in a few hours, and started off to Icharaku's.

"Hey old man! Hi Ayame!"

"Hey Naruto!"

"Hi Naruto."

"So what'll be this time?"

The Kyubbi started rumbling in his head, Kit…

I know, I know…

"Um, how bout I start with some of those new veggie ramen you have?"

The ramen vendor was no longer surprised at Naruto's choice, he just shrugged and turned back to the stove.

Fifteen bowls later…

Both the old man and Ayame were still amazed at the amount of ramen the Naruto could pack away. Staring at him, he practically inhaled ramen.

Finishing his bowl, Naruto wiped his mouth, "Thanks old man!" Pulling out his frog purse, he counted, "Here's 30…40…45 ryou!"

Smiling, the ramen vendor took the money then put back three ryou, "Here first was on the house." Suddenly he was gasping for breath as Naruto hugged him tightly and yelled, "Thanks old man!" and ran off down the street.

Running back to the photo shop, he asked if his pictures were done. The clerk politely told him that they would not be done for several hours, and that he should come back at six o' clock to pick them up. Naruto frowned and ran off towards the forest.

Finding his personal training ground in the forest, he started yelling at the Kyubbi. Hey Kyubbi! Training time!

mmm…wake me up in an hour…

NOW!

Springing upright in his cell, the Kyubbi growled Alright kit, since you asked for it, gimmie two hundred push-ups, then the same for sit-ups, and do it on the water!

Aw man…
Make that three hundred!

Crap… Naruto ran over the pond until he was in the middle, then started doing push-ups and sit-ups right in the middle. When he was done, Now give me fifty laps around Konoha! At top speed! And on the walls! I'll know if you're slacking off. And if you do so, here the Kyubbi grinned nastily, I'll double it!

Gulping, Naruto ran up Konoha's outer wall, and started to run as fast as he could. By the time he was done, he was staggering and was barely hanging onto the wall with his chakra. Finishing in a collapse/slide down the wall, Naruto looked at his watch, and found that it was only three. Digging into his pouch for a soldier pill, Naruto dropped it into his mouth and jumped up; instantly refreshed. Going deeper into the forest, Naruto found his 'jutsu arena' as he called it. It was a large flat clearing, and almost entirely devoid of plant life. There was a river running close by, and Naruto had dug a pond in the middle.

Walking over to the pond, Naruto started to perform his warm-up ritual: several doton spike jutsus crisscrossing the entire area, then a variety of basic suiton, ration, fuuton, and katon jutsus, obliterating the spikes completely.

When he was done, he was slightly winded, and his 'arena' looked more like a ninjutsu battlefield. Turning back to the pond, Naruto started to ask the Kyubbi for his performance. So, how did I do?

Pathetic, though not as bad as usual. Naruto grinned, from the Kyubbi, this was his way of saying good job.

Now get back to working on those bunshins. I want one hundred mizu bunshins, then another hundred kage bunshins, and then I want you to tell each and every one of them to hunt you! And then you hunt them!

Aw c'mon, that's too easy. I can do that in half an hour, max.

Wearing a feral grin, Too easy eh? Fine, I'll teach you a new jutsu right now. Kirigakure no jutsu.

Yeah!

Go over to that pond and do these seals. Naruto did as he was told and quickly memorized and performed the jutsu. At the end, he yelled, "Kirigakure no jutsu!" The entire area was quickly covered in a fog. Naruto looked down and tried to see his hand, and failed. This jutsu covers an area in a thick fog so no visibility is possible. Now try to find your bunshins. I'll even set a time limit, two hours. Hahaha.

Sadistic fox.

Thank you for the complement.

Grumbling to himself, Naruto tied his headband around his eyes, then started listening for the slightest movement. The Kyubbi had fallen eerily silent, so Naruto felt completely alone. The Kyubbi was actually very interested in Naruto's progress, as he had a doujutsu he believed was passed onto Naruto, but so far, it hadn't shown any sign of being there. Perfect, I won't even have to tell him how do use it.

Naruto was tiring. It had been over an hour, and he had only found twenty of his army of two hundred. Hearing a slight whistling sound, Naruto ducked, but he felt the shruiken slice off some hair. Cursing, Naruto ran towards where the projectiles had come from and felt a bunshin come into contact with his fist before it melted around his arm. Mizu bunshin, number twenty-one. Shit. Sitting against a tree, reflex had Naruto looking at his arm to see the time. Five twenty-one, only another forty minutes to go. Wait a minute…Doing a double take, Naruto looked back at his watch, and found that he could see it. Looking down, he saw himself. Damn…I can see even through my headband and the mist. Is this some kind of bloodline I never knew you had?

Damn right it is kit. More specifically, it's mine. Sitting up in surprise, Naruto took off his headband and looked around the area with new eyes.

What the hell is it? Locating a group of bunshins, Naruto sped off towards them.

What it looks like, a demon bloodline limit doujutsu. Doesn't look very advanced though…oh well, it's a start. Naruto grew more excited as his vision expanded slightly with every second, and leaped in the middle of the group, surprising his bunshins.

You mean it can get better than this? Naruto performed seals and called out, "Suiton: Daibakufu no Jutsu!" A large cyclone of water appeared around Naruto and ripped apart the entire group.

Damn straight it can get better. Naruto started see the location of each and every bunshin he created in the entire clearing, hurling shruiken and kunai, he called out, "Shruiken Kunai Kage Bunshin no Jutsu!" and managed to wipe out half of them.

So what else can it do? Looking down at his watch, Naruto was shocked to see that he had twenty minutes left to kill about a hundred bunshins. Naruto started to rush after the nearest bunshin, taking him out, then followed up towards the next one.

There are a total of nine separate abilities. Three down. The first one would be what you have now, enhanced vision. Two hundred and seventy degree vision the ability to focus your vision, and the ability to see through objects. This was true, Naruto could see a lot more than usual, and even through some trees. Thirteen down. The second would be chakra vision. It's not as accurate as doujutsus like the Byukugan, but when fully mastered, you can see the chakra field all creatures emit, whether their trying to mask it or not. Twenty-one down. With these words, Naruto recognized the light blue aura that was wrapped around his bunshins. Twenty-two. Naruto picked up the pace once he recognized the blue glows as his bunshins. Third, you will be able to copy all types of ninjutsu and genjutsu, as long as your opponent does the seals and you see them. Kind of like the Sharingan, except you wont be able to foresee like they can. You can, however, copy certain bloodline limits if the opponent is close enough, though your power is slightly weaker than that of the original. Thirty-four. Fourth, you will be able to store jutsus in your eyes, which would mean…

Naruto actually stopped in surprise at these words and interrupted, What do you mean I can store jutsus in my eye?

Exactly what it sounds like. You can perform jutsus and instead of them appearing as they should, the chakra signature is stored in the eye so you can release them by focusing chakra to your eye without having to perform any hand seals. It's extremely useful for getting the jump on someone.

Cool! Fifty down…thirteen minutes left…

Yeah. Fifth, you can control ambient chakra- that's the chakra that's naturally occurring in the world- and shape it as you will.

Huh?

Alright, in simple terms, you will be able to make weapons and stuff like that out of anything, wood, stone, water, air, you name it, you can make stuff outta it. You can also force it to be weak or strong. How else do you think destroyed mountains and with one flick of my tail? Not even I have that much muscle.

Seventy-three…So you're saying that I could have infinite kunai?

Something like that, yes.

Yeah! Top that Sasuke-bastard!

The Kyubbi winced at the decibel of Naruto's yelling, The sixth is local element control, it's kind of like the ambient chakra control ability, but taken to a whole new level. You use a lot more chakra than the last one, and then only to one specific element at a time, but then you're pretty much lord of that element for about a hundred meters all around. The circle of control gets wider as you add more chakra, nice for weather control.

Alright! Oh, I'm done. Better pick up the pictures then. And what about the seventh, eighth, and ninth abilities?

For the seventh, eighth, and ninth, I'll just tell you the names and basic effect. If you ever get up to them in your lifetime, I'll share the rest of the info with you then. Till then; Fox fire. Summons blue fire. Transformation. Turns you into your 'inner' creature. And Demon change. Basically transformation-mark two.

Naruto listened to the fox silently as he bounded through the forest, with a large grin on his face that was steadily getting larger. I have got to use that some day. How do I do it?

You can't. Naruto's grin disappeared

What! But you said…

No, its not like you can never do them, but you have to work your way up the ranks. Most demons have multi-leveled doujutsus, unique to each clan, and everybody, and I mean everybody, has to work their way up one by one.

Naruto sulked.

That's life kit. Now do you want the good news or the bad news first?

About what?

My 'gift'.

The bad.

Alright, this doujutsu will suck up a lot more chakra than human ones, and your chakra system will have long, excruciating jumps of change to accommodate the new way my chakra flows for every ability after the third. Also, your chakra system will also be unstable until you reach mastery of each level. Naruto's shoulders sagged at the thought of an unstable chakra system.

Now here's the good news. With me in you, you produce only slightly less chakra than you will use with my doujutsu, so the drain is pretty much about half of human doujutsu standards. Also, as it is now, you can use the first two and probably the third as well, though you still have some ways to go until you master them. Finally, with your Uzumaki blood, the changes will take maybe half as long as usual, and the unstableness will be reduced to just extra chakra wasted with each jutsu you do, though that might be able to be reduced if you practice enough chakra control.

That's ok then. Hey I see Konoha! Naruto started sprint forwards towards the huge wall.

You might want to turn your eyes off kit.

How the hell do I do that?

Just don't push as much chakra to your eyes. Try this, stop the chakra flow to your eyes, then let the normal amount flow through. To turn it on again, just push more chakra there.

Cool. Naruto practiced turning his eyes on and off again for a while. He sprinted through the gates and jumped across the rooftops towards the picture place. Then something occurred to him.

Hey, what do you mean my Uzumaki blood?

Oh, your father told me about it, something about a quirk in your chakra systems. Your chakra channels are larger than usual, so you can do higher-level ninjutsu easier than low-level ones. Nice, eh?

Yeah. How come we can't do lower level ones though?

You aren't incapable of not doing them, you just can't do them as easily. Control problems. Normal shinobis can do techniques like bunshin with some practice since they require about the normal amount of chakra, but the Uzumaki have larger channels, so for them to use the techniques, you need finer chakra control.

…Ok, I got about half of what you just said. In regular language please?

Sighing, Alright, lets say that chakra is ink and that a low-level jutsu is a small kanji and a high-level one is a large one. Following me so far?

Yeah.

Now regular shinobis would be using normal brushes, while a Uzumaki is stuck with brush bigger than him. For a low-level jutsu, that small brush is easy to control and after few tries, the regular shinobi has completely mastered it. With a huge brush though, it's harder to get the precise control one needs for a small character. Get it?

Yeah.

However, if they are asked to do a high-level technique, say karyuu endan, then that big brush is perfect for the job, whereas your normal shinobi has to struggle with small brush to paint such a larger character. In essence, a Uzumaki has to work backwards, from high-level techniques to low-level ones, because they simply do not have the chakra control for low-level ones at a young age. GET IT?

Um, yeah. Thanks Kyubbi. Naruto jumped down from the roof and rushed into the store. He rushed outside after five minutes, but this time holding a bag in both hands. Rushing off to his apartment, Naruto was too excited to have noticed the silver-haired jounin following him.

Once inside, Naruto shucked off his jacket, paused, picked it up and hung it in his closet, then placed water on the boil, and practically ripped open his pictures with an eagerness rivaling a child's at Christmas. Opening the first packet with trembling hands, he took out the first picture…and saw that it was clear.

Kakashi was barely five blocks away from Naruto's apartment when he heard a wild yell of joy. Shaking his head, he went back to reading his Icha Icha Paradise book.

Naruto cheered for several minutes before he stopped, to turn off the kettle and cook his cup ramen. Then he opened the rest of the packets, making sure to keep each in it's correct order, and his grin grew wider. Almost every single picture Naruto had taken was clear, and he could finally reproduce the Forbidden scrolls! He was then hit with the problem of figuring out how place the pictures into the scroll forms. He mulled it over while he ate his dinner of twenty different cup ramen, and hit upon the perfect solution. After cleaning up, he made many Kage Bunshins, and ordered them to start working on his project. Most of them were taping the pictures together. He even had some cut up his scrolls with the pictures on, and tape those together. Finally, he himself, transcribed what he could see of the scroll onto many small ones. It took only an hour for the taping to be done, and Naruto dismissed most of his bunshins. Those were ordered to copy what he had already wrote down on previous scrolls. The transcribing took up several hours, and it was almost midnight before he finished. Yawning, he dismissed all but one bunshin and had it clean up after him while he himself brushed his teeth. When he left, his bunshin had already finished and was making his bed. Naruto nodded thanks, and dismissed the bunshin. His last thought before sleep overtook him was that he had never got to see what his doujutsu looked like.

A:N: Sorry you didn't get to find out what it looked like (evil grin) I'm evil aren't I? Still need a Japanese/American translator site.
