What if when Kakashi told Naruto off after the Second Exam, Instead of getting upset, Naruto took it took Heart began to think for himself, instead of acting like the Bitch of the Leaf...
Inspired by the wide array of people asking me to write a Story were Naruto stays in the Leaf, Here is Shattered Views.
Naruto had never lived a happy life. Ignored and neglected in the Orphanage from Birth, Forced to Live on his Own since he was Four, Ignored or Bullied by his teachers and Classmates, abused by the one girl he had a crush on, never having a real friend, mocked at every turn by everyone he respected... It was alot for one person to deal with. Naruto tried to hide the pain under a Cheerful, Happy mask, but it was only that... a mask. Inside, Naruto hurt, hurt like his blood was filled with acid.
However, he could no longer hide, no longer pretend he was happy. Kakashi of the Sharingan had destroyed that ability of his, denying him training the one time he truly had need for it, instead training the least loyal member of thier Team... He even had the guts to try and force Naruto to train with Ebisu of all people... Ebisu who hated his guts...
Looking up at Kakashi, Naruto... for the first time in his short but brutal life...Broke " Do I really Mean nothing to you Kakashi? Does Your Belief in being Loyal to your Comrades not include me?" Kakashi went so speak...
" Now now Naruto, dont you think you are being a Little Dramatic and Selfish? After all, Sasuke is Fighting Gaara of all People. He is insane after all, Sasuke could die." He said it in the calmest tone possible, hurting Naruto all the more.
" And I am in no danger at All? Is that what you think?"
Kakashi shrugged " Yes, Neji is a Comrade, he wouldnt kill-"
Naruto interrupted the man he used to respect " Actually, He would more then likely enjoy killing me like the majority of the Leaf, including my classmates, would. If it wasn't for the other Captains, Hianta would have died by his hand. But of course, you are going to ignore that the same way you ignore Sakura's constant insulting and abusing me, the same way you ignore the fact that Sasuke would set fire to the Leaf if it gave him the power to kill his Brother, the same way you ignore the fact that Sakura never trains or how I am the one that does the majority of work on our team. The same way you ignore the fact that I always ask you for help or training, the way you ignore that I am drastically behind the others due to the Academy Teachers being abusive, the same way you ignore my horrible Taijutsu and reliance on the Shadow clone Jutsu.
No, Kakashi I am not being dramatic. For the First time in my life, I am not being dramatic. And since you have once again failed as a Teacher, I am quieting your team and requesting a Different Teacher or if I am allowed to work on my own. I am done caring for you, or my team or anyone else. I no longer wish to be Hokage, nor do I wish to be in your presence anymore Kakashi. I hope you have a good life without me in it. Inform my previous Teammates of my resignation from Team Seven, I still plan on competing in the Chunin Exams. And before you try and pull me out, you cant. I signed the waiver, So only I or the Hokage can do that. Good bye and good riddance."
With that, Naruto turned on heel and left. He walked right past a gaping Ebisu, and out of the Hospital. No tears fell down his face, in fact there was not an ounce of emotion. He could no longer feel, he could no longer Care. He was down living for others... it was time he lived for himself...the only person who seemed to care about him.
Kakashi froze... unable to think... or even breathe... what had just happened? Naruto no longer wanted to be apart of Team Seven or be Hokage... that was... it made no sense...
Then Naruto's words hit him... hit him like a Tsunade leve punch...
