Some things have changed, I've written some plans for the fanfiction and somethings that I changed. Firstly, Naruto's entire personality as you could have guessed from the first, chapter that I wrote last year was horrible. Naruto's character was too unrealistic for my tastes, so I made him a great deal darker. I'm having Naruto act a small bit like Gaara did before the Chunin exams. You know, how he acted all psychotic and shit. While Naruto won't kill needlessly, and he won't be psychotic, I think I'm going to have it so were he actually enjoys killed bad people. He'll have more of a cold, and ruthless personality, but don't worry, there will be tons of character development between Naruto, Yugito and good deal amount of other characters. So, Naruto wont act like a ass hole all the time. But, his most prominent characteristic, is going to ruthlessness and surprisingly enough, perverseness. While he wont be on Kakashi or Jiraiya level of perversion, but it will be noticeable.

There will be a chapter 2-3 chapter arc before cannon Naruto would even start. Also, the graduation age is 16 for Naruto, and the other Konoha 11, err, rather 10.

»»—Story Start—««

It had been six months since Naruto had escaped Konoha and had arrived to Kumogakure. Things themselves had been going alright. A good amount of things had happened, most of them had been about Naruto himself.

The Sandaime had realized that Naruto was gone a few hours after he had gotten to Kumo and he had immediately sent ANBU teams, and Trackers to hunt him down and retrieve him. The old man first thought that he had been kidnapped, but he realized that that wasn't the case only a few weeks later. The civilian council and the Elder's wanted to put the boy in the Bingo Book, but Hiruzen put his foot down and said that he wasn't even a Shinobi in the first place, so he couldn't be branded as a missing-nin, much to the dismay of many.

There were a good amount of people that were crushed upon hearing his absence. One of the few were Hatake Kakashi, the sole survivor of his team, Maito Guy, Konoha's Sublime Green Beast of Prey, their resident Taijutsu master and Sarutobi Hiruzen. They were naturally crushed upon hearing realizing that he left the Village. But, truthfully, they couldn't bring themselves to fault him. He did what any person with some common sense would do and if they were in his shoes, they would all leave as well, only quicker.

The three simultaneously wondered how the blond stood five years of living in a hell hole while being mentally and physically abused on a daily too weakly basis. It was a wonder why he didn't leave earlier. They only hoped he was safe, or in Guy's case… Youthfully Safe.

While in Kumo, Naruto's life there had been perfect compared to how and where he used to live. His training had been going well. It was pretty amazing at how fast he was learning all the basics and amongst other things.

Though, today was his first day of the academy and he had to admit, he was little excited, mainly because he wanted a challenge. Naruto had become a little loose around Darui, Bee and A and told them a little about how bad his stay in Konoha was. To say they were disgusted would be an understatement. While, Naruto said that he befriended a few people in the Village, namely Kakashi, Hiruzen and Guy. Which, they all accepted and were glad that he had a least some form of friendship.

Naruto and the Kyuubi talked a good bit. While he hadn't forgiven Kyuubi yet, he was well on his way on doing so. Kyuubi even trained him in his Rinnegan. He even told Naruto all the abilities that he knew about his eyes. To say that Naruto was deathly shocked was a vast understatement. Gravity control, copying jutsu, incredible vison clarity, move perception, access to all sub-natures and access to all five basic nature transformations, just to name a few abilities. There was still more and better abilities and that wasn't even half the abilities that he was granted with Rinnegan. Of course, he couldn't use them all, in fact, he was only about to use a few, namely gravity manipulation, and one other path named the Preta Path, which was far from mastered.

Naruto walked out of his apartment and headed towards the Academy, which wasn't too far away. Naruto grew a small bit after eating healthy, now standing at three-foot-ten, just a few inches under average height. His skin was still a little pale, which looked like it was permanent. His spiky hair grew a small bit and his Rinnegan eyes stayed active. His muscle mass also grew a good bit after training pretty hard for six months. He had a pair of black pants and a tight, long sleeve shirt. He also had his wrists wrapped the same his sensei, Darui had them.

He still hadn't met the other Jinchuriki, who was conveniently the same age as she was also participating in academy, which was cool. Sort of. Okay, truly, he didn't care. Maybe if she was strong and could challenge him… then maybe. But, until then, he wasn't interested.

Naruto snapped out his thoughts when he saw Bee standing out the academy doors. Shrugging mentally, he decided to greet him.

"Yo, Bee-sensei." Naruto waved half-heartedly with a small smile.

Bee shared a big smile with the golden blond and started waving his hands around, "Your probably wondering why I'm here, right?" Bee asked but didn't give enough time for Naruto to answer, "Well, fool ya fool, I'm here to see you off, you know?" Bee said with an optimistic tone.

Naruto eyes widened briefly before they went back down and gave small nod to his sensei. "Do what you want, Bee-sensei." Naruto stated coolly with his hands pocketed. However, in a flash, Bee had Naruto in a headlock.

"Your danm right, I'll do what I want! Fool, ya fool!" Bee half yelled, his tone held nothing but playfulness. Naruto slightly smiled for a few seconds before he schooled himself of his emotions.

"Fine! Can you let me go?" He asked his sensei with an slightly twitching eyebrow. He mentally sighed Bee let go of him and Naruto cracked his neck to rid himself of the kinks.

Once he opened his eyes, he saw Bee holding his fist out in a fist pump before large grin on his face. Naruto smiled slightly once more and held his ball fist and bumped fists with him, causing a tiny grin to slit on his face. "See you, later Bee-sensei." Naruto said softly as he turned his back and started walking the other way.

However, he stopped when he heard his sensei shout. "Gaki, if you find Yugito-chan then talk to her… she needs another friend. And I'm sure you do too." Bee said with a nod.

Naruto half turned and glared lightly and stared at Bee's eyes in the corner of his own. "You should know, Bee-sensei; I don't have friends." Naruto reminded before walking the other way, not bothering to wait for his sensei to respond before he walked inside the Academy.

Bee stared at the doors of the Academy with a longing look on his face before he sighed to himself at Naruto's cold gesture. And, he couldn't even deny that he wasn't a little hurt by it as well. Wasn't he, Darui and A his friends, they thought of Naruto as one. It was quite obvious that he didn't reciprocate those feelings though.

»»—Inside the Academy—««

Naruto stared at the wooden door of his classroom before he knocked on it lightly and only a few moments later, he heard a shout say, 'Come In', which Naruto did and opened the door and walked in drawing some gasps from the female occupants.

"Oh!~ He's so cute!" One girl squealed to her friend, who nodded vigorously in agreement.

"I know right!~" She agreed.

"My Kami! He's gorgeous!" A darker skinned girt screamed.

Naruto looked on a little weirdly as the girls kept squealing and screaming as they kept saying how 'cute' he was or how attractive he was. Which slightly confused him. They didn't even know him… and yet they were already judging him? Even the boys were having a reaction. Though, it was the complete opposite to the females, as they were cursing at getting a pretty boy in their class and how he was taking all the girls to himself, which confused him even more. But, his expressionless façade never faded, if anything his eyes narrowed only a small bit in irritation and concentration.

"EVERYONE QUIET DOWN!" A loud voice yelled out, and everyone shut immediately and whimpered pathetically. At least in his own opinion.

The same person who yelled was the teacher, who approached Naruto with a kind smile on his face.

The instructor was a slightly tall light skinned man. He had short, shaggy jet-black hair. He wore the average Kumo flack jacket slacked around his shoulder. Under it, was a black long sleeved shirt and he wore dark brown pants. He also had on black and red fingerless gloves with a weird symbol on the back of them.

"Hi, my is Daiji, no surname. What's yours, young one?" The now named Daiji asked kindly.

Naruto nodded his head slightly, "Uzumaki Naruto." Was all he said before he bowed very lightly, almost unnoticeable.

Daiji's eyes widened in surprise when he heard that Naruto was a part of the prestigious yet thought to be extinct Uzumaki Clan. However, he righted himself, "Nice to meet you, Uzumaki Naruto." Daiji told him with a friendly smile before he looked to the seated class and frowned slightly. "Naruto, I want you to sit in between Samui and Yugito. Samui is next the Kauri, who is the redheaded girl." He instructed.

Naruto briefly studied the ground and nodded and walked up the stairs and sat next to where he was told, and the two girls greeted him with smiles.

"Hi, my name's Samui." The short haired blond said with a smile.

"Hi, names Yugito." The blond that had her hair in a short ponytail.

Samui was a tall girl for her age, she had short blond hair and bright blue eyes. Samui wore a long sleeve brown shirt, brown pants and red arm warmers. On her feet were black calf high shinobi sandals.

Yugito was of average height, standing at the same exact height as Naruto. She had blond braided hair and big black eyes. She wore a sleeveless white colored shirt and beige pants along with black shinobi sandals.

Naruto just gave a half hearted wave and said nothing and sat down right between them. The two girls frowned at being ignored but said nothing.

"Now, as some of you already know, my name Daiji, and I'm your instructor until you make genin." Daiji started. "Now, before we get to everything, I want to know if you've already begun training and then we'll have a little taijutsu competition to see where you're all at." The Instructor informed, causing many to nod and some to frown.

"Good, we'll start with you, Samui." He nodded over the taller blond.

Samui nodded and stood up and spoke in perfect monotone, something that intrigued Naruto a small bit. "I have some training and shuriken and kunai throwing and some taijutsu and some stealth training." Samui told him, causing the man to nod thoughtfully before he went a nameless who said he knew how to access his chakra and that was it.

He then went to Yugito who got and wore a smile that spoke full of confidence, "I have some good taijutsu and a small about ninjutsu training. Also, I'm very agile and stealthy. I also can use some of Nibi's chakra, but not a lot." She said, amazing the teacher at how far ahead she was.

"Alright, that very nice… Naruto why don't you go." Daiji said before he nodded of to Naruto, who slightly nodded back and stood up.

"I'm pretty good at taijutsu, bukijutsu, and I have some training in ninjutsu due to my massive reserves. And I'm starting to learn how to access my Biju's power and I have a Dojutsu." Naruto said, making Daiji even more surprised and amazed. Yugito looked very surprise at saying he was a Jinchuriki like here, but just as she was about to ask her question, Daiji talked.

"W-Wait, I thought the Jinchuriki here in the village was Bee-sama and Yugito?" Daiji asked confusedly, secretly wishing Naruto would elaborate. Naruto sighed once more.

"I'm the Jinchuriki of the… Kyuubi no Yoko." Naruto revealed, earning some fearful and surprised looks. Daiji looked even more confused.

"But… I thought the Kyuubi was in Konoha?"

"I was…" That was all Naruto said before he sat down. Daiji got the message, so he dropped the conversation.

Yugito looked at him in wonder, "You're a Jinchuriki like me?" She asked. Naruto sighed before he tiredly nodded. Neither of them said anything more and the instructor kept asking about their skills.

Soon enough, he finished, and he led everyone out to the training ground that was behind the Academy.

»»—Training Ground 1—««

Everyone filed outside and Daiji stood in the front of the now formed crowd of eager and afraid students.

Naruto clenched his hands tights as he felt his blood rushing. He could smell the challenge and he would savior it. Though, that girl Yugito seemed strong enough to give him a challenge and he really hoped that she did.

And so, Naruto waited until it was his turn in the tournament. Though, he didn't need to wait too long as he was the fourth person to go.

"Uzumaki Naruto vs… Omoi!" Daiji shouted.

Naruto slightly nodded before he walked up into the ring and walked directly across from Omoi who was grinning.

Omoi was an dark skinned kid that stood at average height with short, spiky white hair and dark eyes. He wore an all-black outfit, with a black hoodie along with black pants and fingerless black gloves. On his back, was a short tanto-like blade that was in a dark red scabbard.

"May the best fighter win." Omoi grinned before he slid into a taijutsu stance. Naruto, however just stood there completely motionless and emotionless, which unreeved a good amount people, including Omoi.

Daiji just smiled slightly before he raised his arm and swiped downwards with a shout.

"HAJIME!"

And with that, Omoi was off and surprisingly, he shot off at decently fast speeds… for an Academy student.

However, too Naruto, he was moving as slow as a snail. With his eyes, he could read every single one of his movements.

Just as Omoi was about to close in, Naruto moved his head slightly, dodging Omoi's by inches before Omoi spat out a glob of saliva.

Everyone looked down, confused at why Omoi did that and they became shocked to see Naruto's fist buried inside his stomach.

Naruto still looked emotionless as ever.

The dark skinned boy backed off slightly while clutching his stomach and his left eye was closed from wincing so much from the pain.

"Your tough, I'll give you that." Naruto said, without much emotion.

Omoi just glared heavily at the blond before he jumped forward and leaned a different way and he led with a different attack, this time he was leading with his elbow.

With his Rinnegan, he was able to dodge the attack pretty easily, but Omoi did that as a diversion before he twisted his body kneed Naruto in the side of his stomach, hitting his kidney.

Naruto winced in pain for a second before he grasped his opponent's knee and with a show of impressive strength, shoved him away by just his knee. Omoi skidded back with a 'tch' before he slid in a defensive stance once he saw Naruto slid into a good taijutsu stance.

Naruto ran forward in with impressive speed and threw a punch at Omoi, who blocked it with some trouble before Naruto jumped up and heel kicked Omoi's guard, causing him to stumble back. That was all Naruto need to land a hit and he kicked Omoi with the opposite foot in the chin, sending him up in the air slightly.

The blond, seeing his opponent's stomach wide open, struck with a few fast jabs, sending Omoi straight down to the ground, causing him to spit out some blood.

Naruto landed on his feet perfectly and stared down Omoi's struggling form. "You let yourself open to many times. And you over guard certain attacks. Sometimes tanking a hit is better then going out of your way to dodge. You threw away a perfect opportunity to land some damage on me when you jumped back. My entire guard was down and yet you only struck twice, and both your attacks missed." Naruto said, showing his superior intellect.

Omoi, who was on his knees, stared at Naruto with a small glare before he shakily stood up and wiped some blood of his lip before he slid into a stance once more.

Naruto leaped forward, slightly surprising Omoi before dodged and blocked a fury of well placed attacks that made Omoi really try if wanted to block every single one. Though, Omoi couldn't keep up and watched punched across the face, sending straight out of the ring.

Daiji walked back with a impressed look on his face, "Shōsha, Naruto!" He shouted, and others cheered at his impressive display.

Daiji looked down at Naruto with a nod, "That was very impressive… that goes for you too, Omoi!" He said loudly at the end to catch Omoi's attention who nodded appreciatively.

The white haired kid walked up to Naruto stuck of his hand and gave him smile, "Nice match, and thanks for the challenge." He said with a smile.

Naruto looked at him weirdly before he slowly shook his hand, not really sure what to do, as he was never in this position before. So, he just settled for nodding.

Yugito looked on, clearly impressed with the skills that he showed. Samui felt the same way, but she did feel a little weirded out by his lack of emotion.

After that, Naruto went back into the crowd and waited for his name to be called once more. Yugito went after him and she had to fight the other blond that he was sitting next, her name if he remembered slightly was Samui. Both of them fought well. They showed impressive skills which had gotten Naruto slightly excited about the prospect of fighting either one of them.

About a half an hour rolled by and it was finally his turn and his opponent was…

"For the final match… Uzumaki Naruto Vs… Nii Yugito!" Daiji yelled out, causing Naruto and Yugito to walk up to their respective sides, not once losing eye contact with each other.

Both of them stopped right across from each other and neither of them blinked.

Daiji stood in the middle of the ring with his arm up, "Uzumaki Naruto Vs... Nii Yugito… HAJIME!"

And with that, they both shot at each other at very fast speeds for an Academy student. For most, they were moving at blurring speeds, but to the stronger Academy students, they could see them moving, but it was difficult to keep up. But, to Daiji, keeping up with them was easy.

Both of them clashed, fist against fist, resulting in a large spike of chakra to erupt, easily surpassing genin level.

Yugito used her flexibility and fell back, but she didn't fall… no she bent backwards and kicked Naruto right in chin, sending him stumbling back.

Naruto was pretty surprised by her move and her flexibility. But, he adjusted as he grabbed outstretched fist and pulled her forward, causing her to jolt forward before Naruto ducked down kneed her in stomach, causing her to spit out a very small glob of blood.

Gritting her teeth in pain, she clutched her stomach before she back flipped a few times in rapid succession in an attempt to gain some distance, so she could recover.

Naruto realized what she was doing and charged forward, going to the offensive by sending a fury punched and short knees, which she blocked with trouble.

She narrowed her eyes in concentration as a bead of sweat rolled down her face before she caught his fists with hand and hopped up and reared her knees back into her chest and kicked Naruto straight into the chest, propelling him back.

He gritted his teeth in pain before he channeled chakra into the palms of his hands slammed them into the ground, stopping his flight before he spun around, and helicopter kicked Yugito in the face, sending her flying a few feet back before she righted herself. She slid back, but she channeled chakra into her feet, causing her to stop.

Yugito wiped the blood trail that running down the side of her mouth before she smirked.

Naruto watched his opponent with excited eyes, 'Good, she strong… maybe she'll push me past my limits and make me stronger here today.' Naruto thought as he, shockingly enough, smirked as well.

"That palm kick that you hit me with in the chest was impressive." He complimented as he slid into a defensive stance.

Yugito, from the other side of the ring smiled in response. "Yea, that move you pulled recently with that helicopter kick was really strong. My cheek still feels numb." She giggled as she rubbed the cheek that he kicked.

"That's good… but let's save the pleasantries for another time." Naruto said with his smirk still in place. Yugito nodded her head in his statement before she slid into a stance as well.

Naruto and Yugito were off once more, only at faster speed. Both blonds clashed against each other, fist against fist and forearm against forearm. Both gritted their teeth and pushed as hard as they could to win the stalemate. Naruto's danger senses went off and slightly turned to his right just in time to see a foot aimed directly at the side of his head. Using his superior speed and reflexes along with the perception of the Rinnegan, he ducked swiftly, evading the attack.

Yugito's eyes widened in shock before she was overpowered and was headbutted by Naruto, causing her to wince heavily. However, Naruto wasn't done, he ducked down a small bit elbowed her in the stomach, causing her to cough before she was picked and was thrown backwards.

She gritted her teeth in apparent pain as she was nearing the end of the ring, however, an alarming shout from her tenant alarmed her.

"Kitten! Stop!" The Nibi shouted as her host was nearing the end of the ring.

She snapped open her eyes and slammed her feet into ground, slowing her down. Slowly, she came to the end of the ring, but she stopped just in time. She was safe. Yugito stared back up at Naruto, who had smirk on his face that she kind of found cute. She shook her head out of those kind of the thoughts though.

"You got me there." Yugito said, stating the obvious.

"Yea, we'll your by far stronger than anyone I've ever fought before… besides my sensei's of course." Naruto said with his smirk still on his face. "I knew from the start you'd be a great opponent."

Yugito smirked as well. "After you said that you were a Jinchuriki I knew you were strong as well."

"How about we finish this?" Naruto asked as he slid into a stance, making Yugito do the same.

"Then let cut the chat and do so." Yugito said with the smirk on her face enlarging.

With one final leap… they were off once more.

They met in the middle both of their fists cocked back. Just as they were nearing each other… Naruto eyes pulsed with chakra, something that Yugito caught but couldn't do anything. All of a sudden, he ducked under her outstretched hand and he punched her in the stomach, causing her to freeze in shock and her eyes widened to comic proportions. Her mouth opened a slight bit before she hacked up a large amount of saliva and some blood mixed in between.

Her eyes slowly closed, but not before she heard a few words from her fellow blond.

"From this day on… were equals." Naruto whispered to her before she collapsed. Completely unconscious.

Daiji watched with shock before he shouted with a large smile on his face. "Shōsha… Uzumaki Naruto!" He shouted before he disappeared in a burst of speed and reappeared in the ring while holding Yugito's unconscious body over his shoulder.

He stared down a Naruto's smirking form with a smile on his face. 'It looks like we have two century level prodigy's… and I get to teach them!' He thought with an excited smile before he vanished in swirl of wind to get Yugito some medical attention.

Naruto stayed in the ring for a few more seconds before he left with one thought left in his mind. 'From this day on… Nii Yugito… were equals.'

»»—END—««

So, how'd you like it? I know, it was kind of short, but I don't really know a lot about the Academy. So, I settled for a few fight scenes, some character devolvement, and character interaction.

Let me if you guys have suggestions to help further the story, as that would help a lot.

Thanks, and…

Seeya
