Naruto was so happy, he found that by rotating the water balloon, and rotating the water at different angles, it would pop the balloon. He was now trying to master the second stage of the Rasengan, controlling it.

" Dammit! This is so much harder than the first step, what am I doing wrong?" Naruto asked. He then picked up another ball, and started the proccess all over again. Again the rubber ball popped with a weak "poof" sound. Naruto yelled in frustration. The nine-tailed fox then decided to make it interesting.

' Kit, how about we make this a little interesting?' the Fox asked.

' oh yeah? Like what?' Naruto asked in his head. The Kyuubi just laughed and said, ' If you master this jutsu in two weeks, I'll tell you who your mother was.'

Naruto gasped, he had never known who his parents where, but he then grew angry.

' Don't you dare lie to me you damn Fox! You couldn't have known my mother. I don't like being toyed with!' he thought angrily.

Kyuubi just sighed and said, ' Kit, I'm not lying to you, I knew who your mother was, but if you don't master the Rasengan in two weeks, I won't tell you about her.'

Naruto looked at the fox in his mind and said, ' fine.' he then tarted to train again. A few hours later, Naruto finally succeeds in mastering the second stage, and passes out from exhaustion.

Two Days Later

Jaraiya and Naruto were walking into a bar when Jaraiya heard someone yell, " Tsunade-sama! Please calm down!"

Grinning, Jaraiya led Naruto into the bar when a woman with pale-blonde hair, and hazel brown eyes, said, " Jaraiya? What are you doing here, and who's the brat? Your student?" as a black haired woman carrying a pig in her arms. Jaraiya answered Tsunade's questions and told her of the request of the Sandaime. Tsunade just shook her head and said,

" No. Sorry Jaraiya, but I am not going to take such a job. The previous Hokages all lost their lives young, except fot Sarutobi-sensei. And the last one died when a demon attacked." when she said that, her companion notice that Naruto had flinched, but barely.

Naruto had enough of what the lady was saying, " Stupid job? Stupid job! Why would you insult the Hokages? If I was given the chance to be Hokage, I wouldv'e taken it in a second, because to be Hokage is my dream!"

His gauntlet now a dark red color, Naruto turned and said " Jaraiya-sensei, I'm gtoing to train." and left.

Tsunade was shocked at what she heard. Memories of her brother and boyfriend flashing through her mind. She then turned to look out the window to see Naruto, practicing the third step of the Rasengan.

" You taught him that Jaraiya? Why, he'll never master it." the blonde woman said. the pervert just grinned and said,

" Oh, he'll master it, it only took him a week to master the first two steps."

Both women were shocked at what they heard. but Tsunade wasn't convinced. She went out to where the blonde was training and yelled, " hey brat! how about we make a bet? If you master that move in one month, I'll give you this necklace, and I'll become the Hokage. If you lose the bet, you stop learning that jutsu, fair?"

Naruto thought for a moment and nodded saying, " I'll master it in a week." he then went off to train.

Five Days Later

" Hehehe. Wait 'till that bag sees what I've done." Naruto thought. Today was the day. Naruto had barely performed the Resengan, but actually did it. There in his hand, was a blue spinning orb of chakra. He ran to the boulder and smashed it. The results made both Naruto and Kyuubi grin. The giant boulder had exploded. Naruto besides the fact that he was exhausted, was jumping up and down. It wasnt ntil Naruto remembered the promise Kyuubi had promised him. His mother, Naruto then had a a sad smile on his face when he closed his eyes. When Naruto opened his eyes he found himself in the laire of the only person who knew his mother, The Nine Tailed Fox itself.

" Kyuubi - sensei, I have perfected the Resengan before our Two - Week deadline. May I please know who my mother was?" Naruto asked. Kyuubi smiled down at him.

" Kit, do you know why I said you had to get a sword before I could train you?" Naruto shoook his head as a no. Kyuubi sighed. " Do you remember the guy that looked like a shark, when Sasuke atteacked his brother?" Naruto nodded.

" His appearance changed because of the way his sword is. You know about the "7 Mist Swordsmen"? Well one of them was a women. Hoshigaki Kisame's little sister Hoshigaki Umi. Your mother was one of the 7 Mist Swordsmen. She was also one of the best. Here is a picture of how she looked like." Kyuubi then gave Naruto a mental image. It showed a blue haired women, no more than 5 1/2 feet. She was really beautiful, her eyes were deep blue, she wore white gloves that went to her elbows. She wore a dark blue shirt and matching pants. Her hair went down to her slender waist. She was weilding a blue katana. Its blade was so clear, it looked like it was made of ice. On her face, Naruto was suprised when he saw three whisker on her cheeks, like him. Naruto then thought of a question. Turning to Kyuubi he asked," Kyuubi-sensei, how did you know who my mother was?

Kyuubi sighed, he knew this question was coming. "Kit, your mom was the reason I attacked Kanoha. When I was summoned, Orochimaru threatened me. If i wouldnt follow him he would kill my mate and cub. All of a sudden, your mother came in and blocked an attack that was aimed for my kit, but the blow was a fatal one. She told me that she had a newborn son and asked me to protect him. Seeing that she had a mist hitai-ate, I figured you were inkiri. I attacked Konoha because I thought that snake was there. With all of my anger through all these years, I forgot that Umi named her son Naruto. I just remember the day you summoned me. I'm sorry kit, but your mother died. As did my mate kit." The Fox Demon explained as a single tear fell down from his face.

Naruto's fists were balled, his knuckles were white, anger and sadness were shown in his eyes. Orochimaru was the reason for all of his suffering. Ha also killed his kaa-san and Kyuubi's family. He was going to pay. Dearly.

Naruto then entered the hotel that he, Jaraiya, Shizune, and Tsunade were staying at. When Shizune came out, a worried look on her face.

" Hey, Shizune-neechan, whats wrong?" Naruto asked.

Shizune said, " Jaraiya-sama and Tsunade-sama have gone to fight Orochimaru." Naruto's face darkened as he said," Lets go."

Sorry I haven't updated in a while, Im just too lazy. After this chapter, I might add a new crossover STORY. Do you think I should? The crossover is with a game called Legend of Heroes. Review if I should do this.
