Walking down the path that leads away from the village I started to look back on my life till now. I was kicked out of the orphanage a year ago since I was 'deemed' able to live on my own. Since I had no money I had to spend most of that year on the streets. I ate out of dumpsters and stole what I could. It wasn't until one fateful day about six months ago that I meet Anko. She saved me from a store owner that was going to hit me with a broom. She was a fresh Chunin and saw me getting beaten. She stepped in and defended me from the man and took me to the Hokage. When he found out I was not at the orphanage he was furious. He assigned Anko as my personal guard but she still had to do missions. It was during one of those missions that I meet the fuzzball. I was running from a mob of civilians and nin alike when I was struck by a Kunai. At that moment I meet my tenant. He was simply a wonder to behold. I mean a giant orange fuzzy fox with nine tails is simply too cool even if he was a little grumpy. HEY, I HEARD THAT JACKASS. FUCK OFF FUZZBALL THIS IS MY REMINISCENCE NOT YOURS. YEAH WELL FUCK YOU TOO. oh is the great Kyuubi interested in little old me I'm flattered? But this body can't handle much so be gentle foxy kun. WHY GAKI WHY STOP WITH THE MENTAL IMAGES OF YOU IN ORANGE LINGERIE STOP IT. I start to chuckle bringing odd looks from both Curtis and Jacob. shrugging their shoulders they just keep walking. Anyway back to my story WHYYYYYYYYYYY. Anyways when Anko came back she was livid she took me into her home and that is where I meet Kurenai and Hinata. From what I could see Hinata was always shy and timid but I learned quickly why. She has been shunned by her family because of her gentle nature. Anyways we became fast friends. She was always stuttering but what really caught me off guard was the fact that her eyes we just pail. At first, I thought it was a birth thing until she finally told me. She had the Byakugan like her family. I didn't care about that though I just thought that they gave her a beauty I have never seen before. Kurenai and Anko were always acting strange around each other and it shocked me. It wasn't until Anko came home drunk one night that she told me. She was in love with Kurenai. I talked to Hinata about it and was shocked to find out that Kurenai had also told her that she had feelings for Anko too. We both were then determined to get them together. They were hard pressed at first but we did it too bad it took me leaving to do it.

"Hey boyo come on we need to set up camp," Jacob calls to me. I start too set up my tent but fail miserably. I look over and see that both men have their tents up. I take one look at it and then it clicks. I put the tent up in a matter of minutes after seeing the completed thing. "NARUTO UZUMAKI GET OVER HERE NOW," Curtis yells towards me. I walk over with my head down. "Naruto what would you like for dinner tonight. Oh, and by the way good job with the tent I saw you struggle with it at first then you got it," he says with a genuine smile. I look at him and my eyes water a little bit. I lunge forward and hug him which he returns. "Thank you, godfather. I would like some Ramen, please," I say with a smile. Curtis smiles then starts to laugh. "Just like your mother and father. Ramen the food of the gods as they called it." "Hey, it is the food of the gods. There is no other food that can compare to it." I proclaim earning a laugh from both brothers. "Well then if that is the case then try this new thing. It is called venison steak. You will love the way I cook it I hope." I tilt my head to the side in a confused way. Curtis just smiles and proceeds to pull out three slabs of meat. He gently places them on a cooking stone and tends to them. I walk away and I see Jacob training. Walking closer I try to emulate his moves but I can't seem to do it properly. Jacob looks over at me and stops with wide eyes. I stop doing it and look away. "Naruto come here please." I follow his instructions. "Do that again please." I do it like I saw him do it. "Follow me, "I do so and we head back to Curtis. "Hey, guys you're just In time to get some steak. What's wrong Jacob." Curtis asks "bro do some basic moves from you style please." Curtis stands up and starts his katas. "Naruto, please emulate what Curtis just did." After watching for a minute I start to do the katas. Curtis looks over and sees me doing them and his eyes widen in shock then he smiles then falls on the floor laughing. I look at him and wonder what is going through his head. He stands up and walks over to me. "Naruto my boy you're a natural, not only did you do it right but it was damn near perfect. Good job well I was planning on training you so this will make it easier. Come on let's eat we have a three-hour journey tomorrow then we are home."

The night goes on and the steak was good almost on par with ramen but don't let the ramen know that it might get angry. We continued our journey in relative silence. I was wondering if I should say something but no question could be formed. About two hours into our journey I saw the compound. We were standing on a cliff face overlooking a luscious valley. Trees dominate the valley while many streams can be seen entering the valley. Of on the far end, a large lack can be seen. In the center of it all is a clan compound. This compound puts many he has seen to shame. The only ones greater are the Uchiha and the Hyuga compounds. Three layers of walls surround many houses inside. The first layer was the largest and liveliest. I can see many people moving around selling things and buying like a bustling city. The second layer was quieter obviously because it was the living quarters. Each house sat neatly in the space given too it. Finally, there was the third level. Two similar size mansions sit facing each other. Multiple training grounds surround the houses. The houses seem to be quiet but they don't show it at all. We continue our descent into the valley. As we neared the compound many men with black uniforms start to sound us. "Branch family Curtis and Jacob Grimm welcome home. Your family is waiting for you." and with that, we enter the compound

Rate and review please it helps me know if you not only laughed but are enjoying it.
