Seal of the Wind

Chapter 1: Cyclone

A frigid wind blew across Konoha Village. Yet despite the stinging wind, there stood a lone ninja atop the Hokage Monument. He stood under the full moon. His jacket whipped like crazy in the wind. He stood for a moment longer, and then vanished. Along with the wind.

Not so far away, young Uzumaki Naruto stood on his apartment balcony. Unable to sleep he decided to step out and smell the night air. Instead he felt the cold wind. He crossed his arms to try and keep warm. He looked at the Yondaime monument and for some reason couldn't feel the biting wind anymore. He looked into the carved eyes of the Yondaime and saw himself. What the? Why does he look like me all of a sudden? Then the wind died down, and the Yondaime went back to being a head carved into a mountain. Uhh... Okay? Well might as well try to get some more sleep. Naruto went back inside and as soon as his head touched his pillow, he was asleep.

Naruto woke up at noon the next day. He quickly glanced at his calendar to make sure that it was Saturday. He saw that it was and jumped out of bed. He did some stretches to work out the stiffness. Then he went through his regular routine. Making ramen, eating ramen, using the facilities, stuff like that. Then he went out to the store to buy more ramen. While he was walking down the street, he accidentally bumped into a tall man wearing a cape, among other people. When he finished shopping, he bumped into the tall man again. This time Naruto turned around and said to the man.

"Hey! Are you stalking me or something?"

"Huh? Are you talking to me?" he responded.

"Yeah I'm talking to you, ya deaf fart! Are you stalking me?"

"Umm… You're Naruto, right? I wa—"

"HEY! You ARE stalking me!" Naruto put his fists up and charged at the man. But before he knew it, the man was behind him. He grabbed Naruto's arms and held him up off the ground.

"Hey? Are you calm now?" He asked in a calm voice, and then he said, "One. I wasn't stalking you, I just happened to live around here. And two. I know your name because everyone knows of the Jinchuuriki of Konoha."

"Huh? What's a Jin—whatever it was you said."

Can it be? He doesn't even know of the monster he holds in him. These idiotic villagers, the man thought. He put Naruto down. "Umm… Never mind what I said. Well bye." He walked away.

"Okay. Laterz" he shouted to the man. Naruto then began to walk back to his apartment. There's something about that guy, he thought. As soon as he got home, he put his food away, got his green goggles, and went out to annoy the people of Konoha.
