AN: So uh this is just a week after the first day. I don't really know what to do so i'm just thinking about the plot and what not. I think i'm going to do the Uchiha massacre in like 1 year or something. I plan on making Naruto meet Itachi and maybe Shisui this chapter, but for sure Itachi.
Disclaimer; I don't own Naruto.

-Konoha Training Ground 3-
Now if someone were to come across the 3rd training ground they would see quite the sight. We currently find 30 different Naruto's working on various Elemental Chakra exercises. 10 Naruto's are attempting to cut a leaf in the palm of their hand, another 10 trying to soak a leaf in their hands while the last 10 are trying to light up a lightbulb only for it to flicker on and off or explode.
Meanwhile the original Naruto is meditating on top of the water waiting for the clones to pop so he can process the information without getting severely hurt in the process. But while meditating he failed to notice a pair of dark onyx eyes gazing at him from a high tree.
"So this is Naruto…" The figure muttered with somewhat of an interested gaze. The figure had decided to make his presence known as he saw the clones pop. With a relatively fast speed he disappeared from his spot and reappeared on the grass next to Naruto
Completely oblivious to his surroundings Naruto was focusing on the memories he received from the clones albeit with a slight headache.
"Hello Naruto-san." A voice said from the side of him, making him jump to the opposite side relatively frightened and pointed at him with an accusing finger shouting "Oi you teme don't go sneaking up on me like that!" It was then that the figure introduced himself with an amused face "My name is Itachi Uchiha, and I couldn't help but be interested in your training." The now known Itachi said in a suggestive tone. Naruto just stared at him before it clicked and realized he was talking to the heir and prodigy of the Uchiha clan.
"Um ok Itachi-san but why are you interested in my training." stated Naruto while looking at him suspiciously.
"Well my mother and little sister were talking about you the other day and I was quite interested because it's unlike my sister to praise anyone that isn't an Uchiha, so I decided to meet you myself." He started before continuing his explanation.
"And here I find a 7 year old boy working on not 1 but 3 different forms of elemental manipulation while using a jounin level technique that requires relatively large chakra reserves to even do 1, yet you can make 30 without even batting an eye." He finished in a calm but surprised look.
'It seems Satsuki was talking about me but I suppose I should have suspected that as I made a stupid decision to show off my skills in class but no use crying over spilt milk,' Naruto finished in thought while eyeing Itachi and decided to speak."So do you want like a spar or something.." Said Naruto in a challenging voice while getting up from his sitting position. Itachi just smirked and eyed him with the same look while getting into his stance, The Uchiha Interceptor Fist. Naruto got up and got into the Hummingbird Fist stance.
The wind shifted a bit before a single leaf fell from the tree in between them. The leaf landed and they both bursted from their spot in an impressive speed meeting in the middle with a punch that made a slight shockwave. They both separated before charging back and throwing punches and kicks at a fast pace.
Naruto dodge a jab to the face and countered with a punch to the cheek, only to hit nothing but air making his eyes widen momentarily before he turned around and brought his arms up to counter a kick to the head. Itachi smirked as he saw Naruto fly back a couple of feet before getting up again. Naruto just felt his arms become numb for a second before he flew off a few feet stumbling, he quickly got up to get on the defense as he saw Itachi charging at him. Itachi had been relatively impressed with Naruto's skill as he had not been going easy on the boy, but he still wasn't giving it his all, but was nonetheless impressed.
After dodging several kicks and punches aimed his way Naruto threw a left hook to Itachi's face but it got caught and smacked away. Hoping to put Itachi on the defense, Naruto swept his feet on the ground and Itachi quickly jumped over them and did a couple of flips to get distance. After gaining distance he quickly grabbed two kunai and twriled them on his fingers to put them in reverse grip. Naruto saw this and mimicked his actions but with only one kunai. They ran at each again and met with a clang that echoed throughout the training ground.
Naruto looked Itachi directly in the eyes before he noticed a change in the previous black eyes, now red with 3 tomoe like patterns circling around one black dot. The Sharingan….All of a sudden naruto felt somewhat sleepy before he heard the foxes voice call out to him."Brat I sense forigen chakra entering your system." He stated in an annoyed tone.'Shit! Genjutsu the one thing I forgot to learn, Damnit!' Naruto thought frustrated."Whatever ningen I'll break it with my chakra, so finish this and don't make me look bad brat." Naruto just gained a tick mark and said 'You stupid furball what do think im trying to do lose.' He finished in an annoyed voice, But all he got in response was a grumble of 'ungrateful brat'.
Meanwhile Itachi had just finished casting a small genjutsu on his blonde opponent and waited to see what would happen. He then felt an extremely foul chakra similar to the one he felt 7 years ago...Itachi got slightly nervous but just as it came it left, he then saw three Naruto's charging at him relatively quickly so decided to form hand seals at quite a fast rate.'Rat, Tiger, Dog, Ox, Rabbit, Tiger… Katon: Hōsenka no Jutsu (1) He finished in thought before taking in a large breath and exhaling small fireballs and hit each clone.
Naruto saw medium sized fire balls coming at him at quite a fast speed, 2 hit his clones but before the last could hit him a poof of smoke was seen as well as a log in his previous position.
'Substitution' Itachi thought before getting hit by several shuriken from his left side before turning into a flock of crows. Naruto was extremely confused with the revelation to the point where he didnt notice a kunai placed in front of his neck.
"Yield." A calm but warning voice said from behind him. Naruto just turned around and with a shocked expression asked, "H-how." Naruto was just baffled by the crow technique. It was like a genjutsu mixed with a substitution but it all happened so fast."I had seen your location from where you had throw those shuriken and casted a genjutsu called Magen: Kokoni Arazu no Jutsu (2) on you, which in turn made in seem like you had hit me but in reality you had hit nothing." Itachi explained letting Naruto look at where he had thrown the shuriken only to find that they were just stuck in the ground.
'I'd expect nothing less from the great Itachi Uchiha but that was amazing, to trap me in yet another genjutsu while getting behind me and winning without me even noticing.' Naruto thought, astonished, but then sighed and asked, "How did you do that thing with the crows?" Seeing the confused face Itachi decided to elaborate whilst moving the kunai from his neck. "You see I can do this thing where I use a substitution but instead of using a log, I use crows and implement them with my genjutsu, it somewhat disorients the enemy and I can take advantage of that and what not." Itachi finished but not without commending the seven year olds skill."But I do have to say that for a seven year old you have been trained quite well, who did it?" Itachi stated in a calm yet curious voice. Naruto just smiled at the praise before saying "I did, I've been training myself with books and scrolls I found in the library." Naruto said not stating where he truly found them because well you know why.
Itachi would have been caught gaping if not for his training in ANBU to hide his emotions and just his general calm demeanor but quickly regained his senses and started thinking.'Seems like mother was right about him, he is almost like me in a sense of skill minus the genjutsu but he can fix that easily with the shadow clone method of his.' Itachi thought before widening his eyes momentarily before going back to normal.'He has the potential to become one of the strongest shinobi in the whole Elemental Nations at the rate he's going especially with the Nine Tails on his side'(3) He finished in thought before looking at him again. "It seems like you and I are similar to some extent, say how about we meet back up here again next week at the same time and i'll help you with a little bit of training." Itachi suggested.
To say Naruto was surprised was an understatement but he quickly got over his shock and looked at him with an excited face and quickly nodded but not before asking "Why, I'm sure you're busy and all that so why come help me train." He asked with a slightly confused look.
"To be honest even I don't know myself but I just see potential in you and wish to help is all." Itachi said, Meanwhile Kurama had heard everything as he had been paying attention to him after the win to see what would happen. 'You interest me Uchiha-brat you're not like the rest of those power hungry fools that seek power and glory, I can also sense your emotions and can tell what your saying is true, yet you still bear 'His' eyes.' The fox thought yet decided to pipe in. "Brat accept his offer, you will learn quite a lot under him."
Naruto heard the fox and if he trusted Itachi, Naruto would trust him as well."Ok Itachi-san I will see you then." Naruto said with a slight smile. Itachi just nodded and then Shunshind off to the ANBU headquarters.
-ANBU HeadQuarters-
After Itachi was away from the training ground he quickly poofed into a small cloud of smoke and out came the ANBU, Weasel.
As Itachi walked in he went to the locker room to find his squad. Team Ro, this team consisted of 3 people including Itachi.
One Kakashi Hatake or Dog who was the existing captain of the team and wielder of the Uchiha clan's bloodline the Sharingan and had joined ANBU at 13 and made captain at 14 due to Minato Namikaze taking an intervention on his life trying to help him.
Kinoe or Tenzō was originally an experiment of Orochimaru and was saved by the Third Hokage. Tenzo was later put into Danzo's Root due to his loss of memory after the experiments. They had later found out that due to the experiments he was granted with Mokuton(4) and was later put on to Kakashi's squad after getting him out of Root.
Last but not least was Itachi Uchiha, he was a prodigy of the Uchiha clan and master of the sharingan before he even reached 10. Itachi was a master of Genjutsu as well only being second to that of Shisui Uchiha. Itachi was also highly gifted in shurikenjutsu as well.
"It's unlike you to be late, Itachi what gives." stated Kakashi in a somewhat serious but non-chalant voice.
"Sorry captain I just finished patrolling and stumbled across an academy student training in elemental manipulation with shadow clones, and decided to spar with him before returning here." Itachi finished in a calm tone before gauging the reactions around him.
Kakashi and Tenzo went wide-eyed with an open mouth before regaining themselves. "That should be impossible for a child that age to even use chakra like that, who was it!?" Kakashi asked in a surprised and interested voice while Tenzo just nodded in agreement.
"I believe you may know him as the Nine Tails Jinchūriki or Naruto Uzumaki." Itachi said
Kakashi's visible eye shot open so wide one might think his eye would fall out, but just calmed down and thought 'I would expect nothing less from your son, sensei.' But quickly replied "Well how did he fair in that spar of yours?" he said in a curious voice.
"He did better than I thought he would for sure but had failed to realize he was under a genjutsu that ultimately cost him the match." Itachi stated in a calm voice before smirking and saying, "He is better than me when I was that age, that's for sure."
Kakashi was just mentally beaming at Naruto.'Sensei, I'm sure you would be proud as well.' Kakashi said in thought slightly smiling before going back to his "captain mode".
"Aright Itachi you and I have a mission to the land of the woods to watch over an exchange of info and in the likelihood of their betrayal we are to eliminate them and leave no trace."
Itachi just nodded and grabbed his gear before heading out with Kakashi…(sad Tenzo hours)
-1 Day Later Konoha Ninja Academy-
Naruto was on the way to his seat next to Satsuki to get ready for the day.
"Hey Naruto," Satsuki said in a tired voice before continuing, "How was your weekend." she said with a yawn.
"Hmm let me think... Well I just started elemental manipulation training by myself, Weirdly enough your brother showed up to one of my sessions and asked for a spar." Naruto started waiting for a response.
Satsuki just went wide-eyed before asking, "Really! You fought nii-san, how did you do?" Satsuki asked in a somewhat excited voice.
"To be honest with you... I got defeated soundly, he had used his sharingan and casted a genjutsu on me without my knowledge and used some weird crow technique and got behind me." Naruto said in a somewhat annoyed tone at his one weakness but just resolved to get better at it.
"You got him to use his sharingan!" Satsuki asked in a surprised voice. Naruto just shrugged and said,"Yeah I mean I would have lost either way regardless but he used his sharingan to subdue me to quicken the process."
Satsuki just shook her head and continued to talk with him until Iruka came in.
"Alright class listen up." Iruka said but realized no one was listening and gained a tick mark and yelled, "LISTEN UP YOU BRATS!" Everyone just snapped their head to the front and paid attention.
Iruka just took this as his que to start the lesson."Alright so today we will be talking about the Elemental Nations and village system it all started when…
-After School-
Naruto was walking out of the academy hoping to go train a little bit before the day wore out when he heard someone calling his name.
"NARUTO!" is what he heard in a feminine voice and turned around to find Satsuki running towards him.
"Uhh...Hey Satsuki do you need something?" He asked in a surprised voice.
"U-uh yeah my M-mom had asked me to invite you over sometime." She said in a shy stuttering voice that reminded him of a certain Hyuga heiress.
"I mean ok but did she say why?" He asked, slightly confused at why the wife of the Uchiha Clan Head was inviting someone like him over.
"Um no she just said she wanted to meet you." Satsuki stated with slightly pink cheeks.
"Uhhm ok what day is good then?" he questioned.
"How about Friday after school?" she said in a suggestive but questioning tone.
"Ok see ya then." Naruto said with a wave before heading off.
"Ok see ya!" She said with an excited voice before heading off with her mom.
-With Naruto-
'What the hell could she want with me, I know it's not something hostile but it just feels off. It's like her mother knows something I don't. Because why would someone with her status invite ME over to their compound it just doesn't add up…' Naruto thought with a narrowed yet curious gaze at nothing.
"Maybe you're just overthinking things brat, it's not too difficult to put together, I mean you sparred with the Uchiha-brat the other day and that was a side effect of the little girl blabbing her mouth to her mother, so maybe the mom just got curious and is deciding to do the same thing."
*sigh* "I guess you're right maybe i am overthinking things a little bit, but it's always safe to be cautious regardless of the scenario." Naruto said to the fox in thought.
Kurama just scoffed and said, "Of course I'm right brat, look who you're talking to after all." the pompous fox stated in an arrogant tone.
Naruto just sweat dropped and retorted with 'If you were so great you wouldn't be the one stuck in some 7 year old child'
Before the fox could argue back Naruto had cut off the connection as he arrived at his destination…The Namikaze Compound.
-With Satsuki and Mikoto-
"So how was school today sweety?" Mikoto asked with a smile.
"It was pretty boring for the most part we just learned about history and math and some other pointless things." Satsuki said in an annoyed voice.
Mikoto just sighed and said "What you're learning is important for your ninja career as you can't just go out into the field with zero knowledge what-so-ever." she slightly scolded.
Satsuki just sighed and reluctantly nodded before stating "Oh I just remembered! I invited Naruto over on Friday after school." she said in an excited tone.
Mikoto just decided to tease her a bit, "Excited are we, I might think you like him more than a friend if you keep talking about him like that~." she said in a sing-song voice.
Satsuki just went bright red before sputter incoherent things that sounded something like "stupid mom" or "idiot mother".
Mikoto just laughed before going into thought 'It seems I finally get to meet you kid face to face Kushina-chan' She finished with a small sigh but just looked at her daughter rambling and smiled.
-Inside The Namikaze Compound-
"Hmm ok so, I need a couple Lightning scrolls as well as Wind and Water. But mainly lightning seeing as I have a higher affinity for it out of the 3." Naruto said while looking through the library.
He quickly picked out three lighting scrolls 2 C-Ranked Justus and 1 B-Rank. He Found the same for Wind and Water.

AN: Ok so that's it for this chapter I tried to add a little bit more filler to it but tell me how it turned out. I know I rushed the Itachi meeting but hey it's ok, with the little spar that happened, I don't really know how to make fight scenes and stuff like that so any tips would be greatly appreciated. Also should I make Naruto graduate early or something or what should I do? I'm going off canon plot so I might add a few things here and there but for now it's solely based on canon with a few changes. Also for the up and coming Uchiha massacre I plan on adding a little twist of my own to make things interesting so look out for that. As for the little dinner date thing with the Uchihas I plan on making Naruto meet Shisui after that and what not. So stay tuned and see ya in the next one!
