This is a Naruto Fan Fiction only.

I came to understand the way the classes were structured pretty quickly. Iruka was responsible for all thing that was theory or on a book. Mizuki who for some odd reason I disliked more of the two teachers was responsible for physical skills.

I hated Iruka's class because he was pretty much only teaching me what I already knew. I hated Mizuki's class because for me it was so easy that I felt it was a total waste of time. In our sparring matches I either fought against Kiba, Choji, or Lee. The other students for some odd reason avoided me like I had a contagious disease.

"Naruto it's more than likely they heard what you did to those in the last mob from their parents. They must have told them to avoid you since they either consider you unworthy or too dangerous for them to fight."

Naruto nodded his head as he heard his mother's wise words. The days came and went and so did the times he was told by Mizuki not to be a show off.

A few days before our first final exam Iruka and Mizuki decided to give us all a refresher series of classes. I did as always I pretended to take a nap, meanwhile I got real lessons from my mother. Kiba was actually taking a nap, if his snoring was any indication.

Akamaru was paying attention and so were my good friends Shino, Choji, Lee and Shikamaru. I decided that we sort of formed and unofficial school club. It was on paper a Shoji club which would help our development of a strategic mindset. In truth it was me tutoring my good friends to insure they were as trained as I was.

This at first was suggested by my mother since it was within the realm of possibility that some of them could end up in my genin team. Later it was rather fun to have our little secret study group. Choji benefited from learning my mother's physical training regime.

Lee from her physical endurance and agility training. Shikamaru got a bit of training about the human mind and how a distraction could benefit or harm. Shino got some help to communicate and get along better with his bugs, which much to my surprise had a wicked sense of humor.

I got the grade I was expecting on my final exam. I was officially the dead last in the class. No real surprise there. I did try to become friends with Sasuke but that proved to be almost impossible.

The reasons why it was so hard came in the form of two of my classmates Ino the daughter of a local flower shop family and Sakura the daughter of a very influential lady in the civilian council.

I walked over to him every day and tried my best to be friendly as mother suggested. "Hey, Sasuke would you like to join our Shogi club. I am sure everyone would benefit from having you play with us." As I finished saying that I began counting down from three in my head and sure enough there was what I expected.

"Naruto my Sasuke would never join your worthless little gang. You should learn to mind your place you worthless clan less fool. My Sasuke is simply too good to even talk to a worthless worm like you."

Well Sakura was as annoying as ever and hearing what came next was probably as bad.

"He is not your boyfriend billboard brow. You should heed your own advice and stay away from my Sasuke!"

Honestly these two screaming at each other every day makes me wonder if they need someone to take them to see a mental health professional. I only had classes with them for a year and I already consider both to be nuts.

As I walked home I noticed that someone was following me. I jumped up on the roof and caught my stalker by surprise. He didn't expect me to be able to use chakra techniques. "Not that I mind the company, but could you at least give me a name and why you been following me home every day?"

He looked at me and I could already feel his apathy towards me. "I am called Dog and I am a member of ANBU as you can obviously tell. The reason is to make sure no one breaks the law and you end up killing a few dozen idiot civilians. The Hokage has me being your shadow every minute you are awake."

Guess the old man really wanted to make sure I didn't get the chance to make the idiots in this village suffer. "Too bad, I was hoping to find a few idiots that are stupid enough to break the law. I haven't killed anyone in a whole year. I guess I better start looking for bandit camps, since my prey has been so limited."

He looked at me and he threw a ninjato at me. I of course caught it like it was nothing difficult at all. I started to feel it in my hand. The grip, the weight of the blade, the edge and the balance. I threw it back and he caught it.

"Nice blade, good grip, nice edge, sturdy metal good for chakra flow techniques. It's slightly unbalanced on the right side of the blade. Overall a good killing blade too bad I can't get one myself. The damn shops won't sell me groceries much less any piece of gear."

He looked at me and asked me a couple of questions I was not expecting. "Most kids dressed in fun happy colors, but you are dressed like you are going from one funeral after another why is that? Why don't the shops sell you anything? Don't they like having paying customers."

I glared at him and decided to answer his questions. "To the first what do I have to be happy about. This entire village wishes every day that I die. The other reason black is a good color to hide dry blood stains."

"And the last I told you this village hates me. They figure if I can't buy food I will starve. This would make killing me a lot easier on the mobs that try to kill me on my birthday. Anything else Dog? Or can I go home? I still have to hunt in the forest to get something for dinner."

Since he didn't say anything I went home and got my backpack and a few kunai. Seeing that everything was in good condition I ran jumping from rooftop to rooftop heading straight to the forest.

Once inside the forest a deep part of me felt happy. I truly felt like I was home and couldn't help but to smile as I walked around the forest. Out of nowhere a large panther jumped out of a tree and tackled me down. She began rubbing her head on mine.

"Sumi you sure grew up since last I saw you. So tell me how are your folks? I hope your bothers and sisters are alright." Dog came down next to us and looked at us as if I was crazy. Sumi told me her folks were just fine, her mom was getting over a bit of a sprained leg but other than that they were fine.

I stopped my conversation with my childhood friend and looked at Dog. "Look Dog don't you dare harm my childhood friend or her family. I guess she was hunting for dinner too." Dog didn't understand why was I so friendly with the big feline.

"Naruto you do realize that panther could easily kill you right? How can you call that panther your childhood friend?" I once again glared at him till he put his weapon away.

"I don't expect you to understand, you are human after all. I grew up in my den with mom and her den was a few hundred feet from ours. We were neighbors you could say. We grew up knowing each other, and we are good friends. Her name is Sumi by the way."

I heard Sumi tell me if I was out hunting too? She said that if I was to be careful a giant snake invaded the forest a few months ago and it has been making it hard for her and her family to hunt. I understood that as being the reason her mother sprained her leg.

"Just tell me where the big bad snake is at and I will get rid of it. That way your mom won't get hurt like she got hurt avoiding that snake." Sumi looked at me with a concerned look on her face. She told me it's beneath the old tree we used to try and out climb each other.

I took of towards that tree, of course it would like that old tree. That tree survived getting hit by lightning, a forest fire and a drought. It was one of the oldest trees in the forest and thus had the softest soil to take a nap on.

I ran through the forest and felt truly alive, I could never get this feeling in the village. It must be because this place felt more like home. Dog was keeping up with me and considering what he was I shouldn't be that surprised.

I walked up a tree and jumped from branch to branch till I could see the large snake below me. "I don't know who you are or why you are here, but since you are in a place I care about I am going to ask you who are you? And why are you here?"

The snake gave me a very smug look and tried to reach where I was. Seeing that she couldn't she looked at me with quite the glare. "The summoner of my clan ordered me to come here and keep an eye in the last of the Uchiha. Since I couldn't return home I hunted what I could to sustain myself and do as I was ordered."

I jumped down to look at her straight in her eyes. "You scared the preferred prey of my friends. I would highly suggest you leave this forest and never return or you might make me do something regrettable."

She must have thought that I was bluffing because she didn't make any indication that she was indeed leaving any time soon. Mom told me she approved as she knew what I was planning.

I dropped on all fours and began to growl something fierce, I could feel the skin on my face peel off as I took off all my clothes and armor. I felt my mouth and head begin to change shape and on my rear I could feel my tails growing. As I glared at the snake I saw myself on her eyes.

I was in my complete nine tails form and I must say it felt great to fully use my senses. "Leave now little snake or I will kill you, skin you, roast you and eat you as a snack. Don't think I am bluffing for a nine tail fox never threatens we make promises!"

Something about me made the snake suddenly disappear and to me she look like she was running away for her life. I slowly changed back to human form and I waited a few seconds for my body to heal before I put my clothes and armor back on.

Dog didn't seem happy by what he saw. He jumped down to where I was getting dressed with his ninjato in hand. "So the suspicions of the people turned out to be true. You really are the nine tails reborn. Why did you attack our village fox?"

I couldn't help but to laugh at him. "Dog you really need to be careful you almost broke the law and you know what I do to people that break that law. To answer your question I am a nine tails fox but sadly I was born when mother was forced to attack your village."

I saw my hand return to human form which was a form that made finishing getting dressed much easier. "Mom said that a man with only one sharingan threatened to kill me, her sister and her husband should she decide not to attack the village. It was a lie, he killed her sister and her brother in law. This was all done with a particularly nasty genjutsu it seems."

Dog put his ninjato away and sat down where I was. "Normal snakes don't talk, that means she was a summon beast. There are only two known snake summoners that we know off. Anko Mitarashi and Orochimaru the snake sennin. I didn't mean to threaten you but my family was killed during the attack I just mentioned."

I looked at him and try to act calm. "Yours and many others. They wouldn't hate me as much unless that was the case. Stupidity however is no defense against the law. You should warn the Hokage about the possible danger the last Uchiha faces. If Orochimaru is behind this it must be something that he plans to use to destroy this village."
