DISCLAIMER:I DO NOT OWN NARUTO.Although I really wish I did, I don't.

Just for the record, I'm going to put the meaning of the skills and techniques that the characters use, at the end of the story. Also In this chapter, I'm using the direct info from the anime episode where you see Sasuke stab Naruto through his chest with Chidori, and from then on the story is going to take a different turn of events from the anime.

"BLAH" talking

"THINKING"

Kyuubi talking

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

Two genin ninjas were running at each other on the side of a huge statue, while readying to punch the other nin. One of the two nins caught the other's fist but none the less was punched in the gut and coughed.

"It's as I said before...You've been waiting and hoping for this as well. Now that Kakashi and Sakura aren't here, there isn't anyone to stop us like last time. You..."

With that Sasuke reached out and grabbed a kunai from Naruto's kunai pouch, pushed himself off of Naruto and said, "This will be the end!"

"I'm going to defeat you!" said Sasuke as he threw the kunai.

Naruto threw a shuriken at the kunai to parry it, but in that instance, Sasuke had krept up beneith him and kicked him with both feet while holding onto the statue's side with chakra. He then landed swiftly onto the same spot and lunged off to land on the statue across the river , to start seals.

Sasuke then began to do the proper hand seals to preform his jutsu.

"CHIDORI!"

"IS HE CRAZY?" Naruto said to no-one in perticular as he landed on the water.

"I'm taking you back, even if I have to beat you senseless!" shouted Naruto.

With taht said, Naruto then did the familliar action of crossing his doubled fingers and shouted the all too familliar jutsu.

"Kage buunshin no jutsu!"

Just as a clone appeared right beside him, Sasuke dived off of the statue he was standing on, into the waterfall below. Then there was an explosion of water. As this was happening, Naruto(clone) began to gather chakra into his hands and a ball of swirling chakra was formed.

"RASENGAN!"

Just as Naruto said that, Sasuke with lightning radiating from his hands lunged out of the waterfall, and the Naruto clone grabbed Naruto's hand and started to spin him in circles. Then the clone threw Naruto and disappeared in a puff of smoke.

As the kunai thrown by Sasuke landed in the water, both the ninjas met each other and a moderate sized ball of both blue chakra and lightning was seen in between both of their hands.

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

"DAMN!" Naruto shouted as he woke up startled.

It had been 2 weeks since Kyuubi had last saved Naruto from certain death and spoke with him. And quite frankly, he couldn't do the techniques because of the fact that he did not have enough chakra of his own. Although the Kyuubi would give Naruto some chakra, it wouldn't be enough for the long shot in a fight taking into account the fact that the techniques he was told about took more than 3/4 of his whole chakra reserves, after a boost from Kyuubi. So Naruto basically did some mental training and then learnt of the many facts that the Kyuubi knew as Naruto started to understand more and more of the seal and of the things he could do with it. Then, after awhile, he started to take advantage of the things he could do with the chakra, both his own and the Kyuubi's, and innitiated it with his own unique (as in more different than other's) style.

"Eh, Ero Senin, where are we going now?" asked Naruto while walking away from Konoha's gate, "and what's with the mission that Tsunade gave to us?"

"Naruto, we are going to the village hidden in the clouds," said Jiraya.

"Nani? But aren't our village and their's on bad terms or something?" asked Naruto.

"Yes Naruto, we did make ammends with the cloud, but still, we have to be more careful," said Jiraya.

"Yeah but then why do we have to take her along?" asked Naruto as he pointed at the girl walking behind them both.

"It's because she is a person from the cloud country sent to assasinate you, we are going to do some research over there and maybe learn a few things," said Jiraya, "she confessed later and turned over 'a new leaf' and decided to help us.

"Well I think that the more the merrier!" shouted Naruto in glee.

"Besides, she's kinda pretty. As long as she isn't an arrogant b I'm okay with the idea," Naruto thought with that fox grin he puts on when he thinks.

"Is he always this enthusiastic?" asked the girl.

"No, only when he eats Ramen and when he learns a new technique," said Jiraya.

The girl giggled and continued walking.

"Hi, my name is Uzumaki Naruto, whats your's?" asked Naruto to the girl.

The girl had long black hair that reached down to her waist and had deep blood red eyes which looked like a bottomless pit. She was wearing a red kimono with different flowers on it and a large pretty pink bow that tied it all together.

"Hi my name is Kuroihitomi Akira, it's really nice to meet you," said Akira.

"A Kuroihitomi huh? Hmm..." said Jiraya.

"I thought I heard that surname before, the infamous 'Hitomi clan' of Konoha, believed to have disappeared from the village so many years ago mysteriously, during the cloud invasion!"

'NANI?"

"The girl has not returned from her mission. She must not tell of our plans or our existence. Eliminate them!"

"What of the girl?" asked a voice.

"We can't risk anything, kill her too. Besides she is just trash, not being able to perform the simplest of the bloodline abilities." said the deep voice.

With that about twenty or so nins flashed out of view.

"They must not find out of our secrets!" said the man to no-one in perticular.
