Sup people? Here to bring you the next chapter and there ain't a damn thing you can do to stop me :D

Ok, I think I need to say a few things, since there's been a few comments on each of the things I'm about to say and I don't feel like answering all of them individually.

First off, YES! Hinata is going to be in the Harem, I am admitting that right now. No it is not up for debate. If you don't like her that's your problem, I can't please everyone. However if your problem is her stealing the spotlight or her being the quiet timid little Hyuuga for the entire story then you don't have to worry, I'm going to give her a unique personality and she's going to get as much spotlight as the rest of the women in the story so don't freaking worry :O

Yes due to popular demand I'm adding more women, I don't know how many but we're gonna burn that bridge when we cross it, however I don't know if it'll cross that 10 girl limit I put up earlier, it's just annoying though, to get the girls most people like or the ones I personally like into the story it requires going THROUGH other women to accomplish it, say like getting Sakura through Ino, Tayuya through Kin etc. Not saying any of those four will be used but you get where I'm coming from here. Ugh, and a vast majority of the women in the story that are easily accessible are during the chunin exams, so that's going to be fun trying to fit my brain around that.

Finally, thank you for all the positive reviews, I'm honestly surprised by the reactions to this story, To me all I see are the flaws in the story the few things I've missed, I guess what they say is true I'm my own worst critic XD. However a few of you brought up some fairly decent points in your reviews and pm's, hell a couple of you actually predicted a few things I had planned and corrected some things that I hadn't thought about. (You know who you are, spank you helpy helpertons :D) for that I thank you and hope you enjoy the story.

Ok enough of me on to the story!

Chapter 5 impractical training and school days

-Outside training ground 44's Tower, 2 weeks later-

It's been two weeks since the accident, With the help of a gag order from Sarutobi, most of what happened to Naruto was reduced to a rumor. The Uchiha massacre that happened only a few days after that drew even more attention away from him, with the entire village focused on the tragedy, it kept Naruto out of the public eye long enough for most people to forget about the incident. In that time Naruto's fox ears grew out to full size, his tail was the next thing to come in, the fluffy appendage was currently sticking out the back of a pair of casual clothes he had stitched together from another large shirt Anko had given him, the baggyness of the pants was more comfortable on his rear since the tail was still a little tender, He still shuddered when he thought back on Anko's reaction to it..."UUUUGH, the pain, too squishy" he shivered unconsciously. Sadly our young hero suffered first hand from the combined effects of marshmallow hell and an overly zealous glomping, Kami help him if any other women got a hold of him. Hell he was still massaging the kinks out of his tail, though it was weird having a tail to begin with, his sense of balance was thrown off but at the same time felt more balanced overall. He also felt stronger, and his senses were increasing as well, if things kept going the way they were going he might even consider this a blessing rather than a curse.

"Oi Gaki?" Anko called from the entrance to the tower, breaking the boy from his musing

He turned to her curiously "Yeah An-chan?"

"I think it's time I start training you, you've had a week to get used to your new animal parts and I think it's time we bust ass and start your ninja training"

His face lit up "Yeah, It's getting boring just sitting around doing nothing. I'm ready for anything you can throw at me" hopping around a couple times and doing a few punches and kicks to prove his point.

"Actually, first I want to know something."

The blond stopped and looked at her "What?"

"You know that jutsu you used when we talked to Kyubi?"

He thought a moment "Oh, you mean the Kyuubi shadow clone jutsu?"

"Yeah that one, do you know the parent jutsu? The Shadow clone Jutsu?"

He nodded "Yeah, That was the first thing Kyuubi taught me so I could use the Kyuubi Clone. Why?"

"Well, now things get alot easier, do you know the special ability of shadow clones Gaki?"

"No, why?" he scratched his head in thought.

"Try and make as many as you can and I'll show you."

"OK." he shrugged, gathering a large amount of chakra "Shadow Clone Jutsu!" a giant puff of smoke filled the clearing, when the smoke cleared there was easily more than 200 clones around Anko.

Anko's eyes widened as she noticed all the clones "THE FUCK?" she yelled, literally falling on her ass in surprise.

Naruto looked around confused, "What? Did I not make enough?"

"Not enough, are you insane?" Anko's thoughts were whirling 'How the hell can he make so many shadow clones? For fucks sake, I've never seen anyone make this many...wait, if he can make this many...My god...The third was right the brat could be a prodigy in the making, screw the bloodlines and the elements, just being able to do this is a gift itself.'

"Um...An-chan, are you alright?" His voice was filled with concern.

"Y-yeah, just fine" the shock was finally beginning to wear off, just the thought of what he could do with this many clones made her adrenaline rise. 'All the possibilities...ALL the...NO BAD ANKO! No gangbang jutsu's!" she slapped herself and stood up quickly, "Naruto, don't worry, if anything this should be impossible to do, just the fact you are doing it is amazing."

He tilted his head "So what now?"

"Now I show you a neat trick that shadow clones can do, "Shadow clone Jutsu!" She yelled out, a single clone forming beside her. "Have one of your clones follow me Gaki." as the clone walked off into the woods.

"You heard her." One of the clones broke off from the rest and followed Anko's clone deep into the woods. after a few minutes of walking Naruto's clone turned to Anko's clone "Now wh..?" the clone started to ask but before the clone could even react Anko's clone had stabbed it with a Kunai, dispelling it. A second later Anko's clone dispelled as well.

-Back with the original-

"Oi! Why'd you kill my clone?" Naruto growled.

She grinned "AH, but how did you know I killed it?"

"What do you mean you just..." the boy frowned in confusion, before a small smirk slowly crossed his face. "Anything a clone experiences gets sent back to the original when its dispelled doesn't it?"

"Got it in one Gaki." she laughed "From now until you join the academy next year, you are going to be training with shadow clones, by the time you make Genin I'll have your ass at chunin level." She flashed him an evil grin which sent a chill up his spine. This wasn't going to be pleasant he just knew.

"Alright, first off, we aren't going to be learning any new jutsu, I'm telling you that now. What we're going to cover till you start the academy is chakra control and nature transformation." she walked over to a nearby tree and yanked a leaf off one of its limbs. "First, is chakra control exercises" As she placed the leaf on her forehead and channeled chakra into it to float it lasily above her head, much to Naruto's amazement. "The objective of this first exercise is basic control, keep the leaf floating over your head with chakra for as long as you can, its not power you're after, it's control. Since there's around 200 clones here we'll have 100 working on chakra control, and 20 each working on a separate element." She grabbed the 5 elemental scrolls from her pouch and tossed them to one of the clones "Get to work" She then pointed to the original "You're coming with me." she was about to walk away when something stopped her "Oh." she yelled at the mass of clones "Hey, if you need to dispel don't do it all at once or you'll give the original a bitch of a headache." she turned away from the mass of clones, "Come on, lets go" the two of them walked to another clearing on the other side of the tower.

"So what are we doing over here?" He asked curiously

"Simple, since Shadow clones can only send back mental information, physical abilities need to be worked on by the original, sure you can work on your reflexes and instinct, but things like muscle memory and increasing your body's strength, speed, stamina and flexibility is all down to you."

he raised an eyebrow "So we're exercising?"

She smirked "Something like that" an evil chuckle escaped her lips as she explained her 'training' all the while Naruto turned paler and paler.

"Are you fucking INSANE!" finally finding the words to express himself.

"Maybe" she laughed. "But that doesn't change the fact that you're going to do it."

Naruto sighed, the sooner he got this over with the sooner he could rest. Kami it was going to be a long day...'200 push-ups, sit-ups, kicks, punches and squats all before lunch, and then I have to SPAR with her. ugh this is going to hurt.'

-With the clones-

"Ok let's see here... Nature transformation, the basics" The clone scanned each of the scrolls intently. "Channel chakra into the object and imagine that element's properties in that object. For fire, superheat your chakra and imagine burning the object. For wind, split your chakra in half and grind it to a fine edge to cut the object. For lightning, aggravate your chakra in the object to create a static charge. For earth, harden your chakra around the object and grind against it. For water, use your chakra to gather the moisture in the air and soak the object. Seems pretty straight forward" The clone grabbed a leaf and held it up high, "ALRIGHT ME'S, it's time to get to work!" the clone pumped its fist before it dispelled itself and sent the info through the ranks.

-Hokage's office-

"So it begins eh?" an image of Naruto flashed through the crystal ball "heh, Just seeing that many clones makes me feel old" Sarutobi chuckled to himself. "I see great things in your future Naruto. Your father passed his will on to you while your mother passed on her love, remember both their sacrifices Naruto, grow stronger from them and show the world you aren't some demon, show them the real you, the you your parents would be proud of." He sat there for a long moment taking a drag off his pipe, the quiet of the room ringing in his ears. The third sighed as he exhaled the smoke from his lungs, "Good luck Naruto, knowing your fathers luck you'll need it" a dry laugh filled the air as the third again sat in silence. "Although knowing your mothers luck..."

-A few hours later, back with the original Naruto-

'KAMI KILL ME NOW!' The boy mentally yelled, his arms were already like jelly but Anko insisted he learn the basic kata's to her Taijutsu style so they could spar, he had learned the first and second kata's though the use of shadow clones, but the woman wasn't letting up, she kept pressing him to learn the moves, and any time his stance was off she'd correct him...with sharp pointy things.

"Ok Gaki, you got the first three kata down for this style, those are the basics, and they're enough to get you through a light spar, so come on, get off your ass and let's do this." She stood a few meters away from him in what she called the python stance, a stance based on defense and single heavy strikes, perfect to spar against without killing the kid.

"Can't we at least take a 5 minute break? I can't even feel my arms right now."

"Quit the bitching, can't feel your arms can't feel the pain now attack me, or do I have to come to you?" she rose an eyebrow at this, almost daring him to let her attack first.

"The hell I'd give you a reason to kick my ass." he charged forward in the standard viper stance, the most basic of the stances built on speed and quick successive strikes. As it stood the boy was decent in speed and could deliver fairly strong punches even if the stance he was currently using was meant for cherry tapping. "Ahhh!" The boy yelled, as he ran towards Anko, fist leading in a vicious punch.

"That's more like it!" She blocked the strike with her palm, with a swift jerk she tossed the boy behind her, Naruto flew through the air a few feet before he righted himself in the air and landed on all fours, he dug his feet in and rushed her again, dodging from side to side, to try and throw Anko off.

"Not bad kid." She laughed, dodging to the side to trip him and send him rolling into a tree in a heap. "But not good either, you leave yourself too open when you charge. When you come in for a strike and you're ducking back and forth like that you need to keep inside of your opponents striking arm and make sure you can correct yourself if your opponent dodges. That was a good try though, now pick up your dignity and fight me."

"Crazy snake bitch" Naruto grumbled under his breath as he got back into his stance and charged again, coming in for a low strike to the ankles hoping to cripple his opponent somewhat to at least give him some advantage, it didn't help his self esteem any that he was having to fight someone twice his size. Anko responded to the kick by hoping just over it, bringing her foot up as she did so to catch Naruto under the chin, sending him flying back again, he rolled with it and got to his feet after sliding a good 15 feet.

"Tell me again, how kicking my ass is supposed to make me stronger?" Naruto asked rubbing his bruised jaw.

"It's training, deal with it." she stated flatly.

"Figures..." he mumbled, getting back into position again, this time he was going to take it slower, just rushing in there wasn't doing anything.

"Oh using a defensive stance? Well now, let's test it shall we?" A wide grin crossed her face as she rushed him.

"Sh-Shit" Naruto cursed. bringing his arms in front of him in a cross to stop the kick aimed for his face, the blow knocked him back a few feet, he rolled to the side as a fist connected with the ground where he was a second before, he placed his hands on the ground and kicked out with his left foot catching Anko on her lead shoulder before tucking into a roll to dodge a kick she threw his way. Quickly getting to his feet he blocked a punch and sent it wide, getting in closer under her guard he sent a punch into her stomach before hopping back to get out of the grapple she was going for.

"Heh that was a nice punch Gaki." she coughed "That actually hurt a little"

"You do know that this is hardly fair right? You're twice my height and weight, many times my experience and I'm pretty sure you're just toying with me."

"And you think you won't fight people like that when you become a ninja? Anko deadpanned "I fought Orochimaru's snake summons and won in a taijutsu match, those bastards are bigger than a house, you think that bothered me at the time? Hell no! I did exactly what you are doing now, using your opponents movements against them and striking when you have an opening." She smirked again "And since you've hit me, you're clearly up to this level of speed."

"This...level?" a sinking feeling filled his stomach

"Low Genin speed test COMPLETE!" She yelled exuberantly. "High Genin time!"

"Fuc-" his words were cut off by a fist to the face...

-3 months later-

"Alright Gaki, take five!" Anko yelled at him as the boy collapsed in a heap. He had spent the last 3 hours doing nothing but endurance training, which frankly surprised her. She'd thrown other Chunin through her personal gauntlet a few times in her career and the gaki handled it like a seasoned Jonin, the kid had stamina there wasn't any doubt about it. 'Maybe he could use that stamina for other things kukukuku-hrk BAD ANKO!' She slapped herself 'No pedo thoughts!' she looked out over the clearing to see her husbands clones at work. His chakra control and change in chakra nature training was going well, He'd gotten the leaf floating exercise after the first week of training, though even with his clones it took awile since he was still a child and his control was abysmal at best. Even now, tree climbing was still a a bit difficult for him to maintain. Of course she was also making him float leaves while climbing the trees to maximize the tortu...er...training. As for the change in nature training he'd completed channeling all five elements into a leaf, he was struggling through the second part of the training though. It would most likely take him the rest of the year to finish the second step for each element.

Anko's mouth cracked into a wicked smirk, 'Plenty of time to get the kid's asskicking potential up to snuff' the smirk spread out into a large ear to ear grin. 'The academy teachers won't know what the hell hit them kukukukuku-hrk...'

-7 months later-

The loud yells of children and the shuffling of feet surround the pair as they made their way though the crowd towards the academy doors, all around them there were children of several different age groups, the largest of which was right in front of them, the 'fresh meat' as the older students joked. that first year would be starting point, where the dreams of many a genin hopeful would follow.

"Heh, alot of competition Gaki. Think you can handle it?"

Naruto snorted in amusement "Please, after that hell you put me through?" he shot her a small glare "You should feel sorry for them." he pointed to the group in question who all seemed like they would 'play' being ninja rather than just 'being' ninja.

"Pfft hahaha, yeah I guess you're right" as they walked into the academy, Oh and remember what I told you?"

Naruto got into his best Anko impression "Hold back just enough to make people think you're weaker then them, deception is a ninja's bread and butter, yada yada yada, Yeah I know, I'll keep my skills to myself for now but that doesn't mean I wont do stupid shit in class...you never did beat THAT out of me" he chuckled at that last bit.

"Why would I beat the creativity out of you? Some of those pranks were pure gold gaki" a small hint of shock filled her voice, though Naruto knew it was bullshit and she was fucking with him...one of the few things he couldn't stand about the woman, she hid her jokes so well that sometimes you didn't know she was making fun of you.

"Yeah" He chuckled after a few seconds. "So any last minute advice?

The buxom Kunoichi raised her hand to her chin thoughtfully, she seemed to honestly think about it for a good five seconds before reality and her merciless attitude reared its ugly head. "Yeah, don't let your mouth write checks your ass can't cash, try and make some friends and for the love of Kami, Watch out for fangirls.

"Fangirls?" beads of sweat formed on Narutos brow as the word sunk in, "Fuck that. I'd rather go toe to toe with fuzz-butt than meet one of those in a dark alley."

"Pffttt hahahaha" Anko's merciless laughter filled the air. "That's a good mindset , fangirls would tear you apart if they knew what kind of abilities you have at your fingertips, hell If I wan't to jump your bones when you're older just think what a group of preteen girls would do?" Naruto grew several shades of white "Plus I heard the Uchiha brat that survived that clan massacre is in your class, heh, the boy has a fanclub already, I'm surprised he's even alive right now with the way they're clawing at his door all the time."

It took a moment before Naruto could recompose himself after that little mental torture Anko put him through "Ok watch for fangirls" he shivered again "try and make some friends and don't pick needless fights, got it. Can I show off a little to put arrogant pricks in their place?"

She gave him a thumbs up "Yeah sure Gaki, you have my blessing to take the sticks out of peoples asses when you feel the need to, so go in there and kick some ass!"

Naruto's hand snapped to his forehead as he went rigid in a salute "maam, yes maam!" he roared, and ran off to his first class, ready to raise some hell.

The door to the classroom slid open as the sounds of talking filled the air around Naruto. He looked around the room taking in each new face with interest. Out of everyone there, only a dozen or so even looked at him. 'Well then, start with the friendliest looking ones I guess.' He readjusted all his clothing to make sure his foxy bits were hidden and walked over to a young boy who was munching away at a bag of chips like his life depended on it. "Hello, names Naruto Uzumaki" Naruto reached out his hand in a shake. The boy looked at the offered hand for a moment before taking it in his.

"Choji Akamichi" he smiled, teeth flashing with some food between them.

"Choji what have I said about swallowing your food before you talk?" a bored voice droned from his side, Naruto turned to look at the boy next to choji, 'hmm, laid back, bored, pineapple hairdo...heh this guy looks interesting' he reached out his hand to the other kid "Naruto Uzumaki, nice to met you"

"Shikamaru Nara, same" he returned the shake again in a bored tone.

After Naruto found his seat he scanned the room, the other few people who still seemed interested in him were some kid with glasses and a longcoat, name was Shino or something like that. A girl he recognized as Hinata sitting in the back of the room. And two women who seemed to be fawning over someone in the corner. Or in other words...fangirls...'stay the fuck away mode: ACTIVATE!'

"YAHOO!" A voice yelled from the back of the room, the three boys turned to see a wild looking boy in a hoodie hopping up and down in joy.

"Oi, dog boy, keep it down!" Naruto yelled at him, he had smelled a strong scent of dog when he walked in thanks to his new fox like nature but he couldn't place where it was coming from, looking at the wild boy now he could tell the smell was coming from him.

The dog boy turned to Naruto with a scowl on his face "You wanna start something, huh?"

"Heh, I don't start things dog breath, I finish them." he replied in a cold tone that sent shivers up the spines of several people in the room, 'Oh I am so thanking Anko for teaching me that killing intent trick, the look on everyone's face is priceless.' the dog boy paled a little bit and a bead of sweat formed on his brow but other than that he was holding up rather well.

"Y-you picking a fight?" he stuttered slightly.

"Nah, only if you start it, but I won't do anything unless you do something. I'm here to make friends and learn how to be a ninja, so what do you say? Friends?" he reached his hand out for the third time that day and smiled a genuine smile.

Dog boy's expression turned from scared to confused, his brow twitching nervously as his eyebrows nitted together. "Sure" he said at length "Names Kiba Inuzuka."

"Naruto Uzumaki, and I gotta ask, why do you smell like a dog so much? I could understand maybe having a pet that has its scent on you but that's not it, your entire body smells like it."

"Ehh, you can smell that? You must have a pretty good nose. Yeah, my family is famous for our Ninken ninja dogs, you could say we're as apart of our partners as they are to us, thats sort of the reason I was yelling earlier I just found out earlier today that I'll be getting my ninken partner soon." His grin took up his entire face at that.

Naruto looked a little freaked out at the boys reaction to getting a dog. "Yeeaah, ok. I can't really see myself with an animal partner but whatever, to each their own."

"If you don't like animal partners, why do you smell like a fox so much huh?"

Naruto was confused for a second before he palmed his face "Oh, that... yeah thats just a part of my bloodline" his eyes widened a bit, he hadn't meant to say that...

Most of the people in the room who were barely listening before now were eyeing the boy intently "You have a bloodline?" Shikamaru asked. "What is it?"

"Yeah...um, its kind of a first generation bloodline, so I'm the first person in the village to have it" He laughed nervously. 'Shit I didn't want to have to use this lie yet...oh well' The kyubi container rubbed the back of his head "As for what it is...well...that's a bit of a long story..."

"We have another 30 minutes or so before class starts." kiba nudged him. Apparently he wasn't gonna let this go so, in no little frustration Naruto began his 'tale' using the lies Anko concocted for him to make making friends a bit easier on him, that, and being able to show off his foxy attributes without worrying too much about being looked on as a monster.

"Well it starts 8 years ago on October 10th the day of the Kyubi attack...and my birthday" he said absently making a few in the room wide eyed, "During the fox attack the hospital I was in was crushed under one of the foxes tails, apparently I was the only one there at the time so I don't know what happened to my parents, most assumed they had died in the attack and I was put into an orphanage, well, it turns out that one of the Kyubi's tails came extremely close to me during all that, and a large portion of its chakra blanketed the area around me, now normally the foxes chakra would have killed any normal person exposed to it. Somehow, I survived and up until a year ago I was a regular looking person, normal, except for a few whisker marks on my cheeks." he pointed to the marks in question. "But a year ago my bloodline activated, the foxes chakra had changed my body a bit and mutated it into a bloodline and well...um...I might as well get this out of the way while I'm letting everything out..." he closed his eyes for a moment before taking his hat off and pulling his tail out from his pants. "Yeah I kinda got a few 'other' gifts from that attack as well" He laughed nervously.

Now there were many things that Naruto was expecting, fear, hatred, anger, all of the above in most cases, but the looks on the kids' faces shocked him to his very core. 'They...they look amazed' the boys of the class looked at him in awe while the girls... 'Oh kami...they look...hungry.' They were eyeing his twitching ears and the way his tail flicked back and forth with a desire to glomp his foxyness. Naruto backed away quickly from the girls, which confused the boys in the room, that is until they looked at the girls and started snickering at Naruto who paled visibly.

"Hn." A voice grunted from the side.

Naruto turned to the sound, to eye a boy sitting on the far side of class next to a window 'Let's see...Black hair, black eyes, broody emo attitude, yep. Definitely an Uchiha.' The blonde was mildy annoyed by this, the bastard was ignoring him like he wasn't even worth his time "Oi, you got a problem with me?"

"No, you're just a loser, that's all." he replied in an even voice." Almost all of the girls in the room swooned at his supposed 'coolness'

'Ohohoho he did not just go there.' Naruto seethed, teeth gritted in anger. His anger quickly cooled though as a smile touched his lips, "Heh if you think I'm such a loser kid why don't you put your money where your mouth is, or are you afraid?" The black haired boy jerked his head towards Naruto, a look of anger on his face.

"Watch what you say loser, I'm an Uchiha." The black haired boy growled at him

"Pfft Uchiha, a clan who does nothing but steal the hard work of others, and they say they're 'nobility' Hah more like a clan of thieves more like it." That was it, the Uchiha boy was out of his seat and raising a fist back to strike. Naruto just smiled and stepped to the side, tripping the boy like Anko had done to him his first day of training. The Uchiha had speed that's for sure, but after fighting the Snake mistress for so long it felt like he was moving in slow motion.

Sasuke picked himself off the ground and glared at Naruto with a look of pure hatred on his face.

Naruto just stared "What? Was that it? Hahahaha, seriously dude you're pathetic." Another fist flew at the boy but a quick grab caught the hand and in a small movement Naruto had his leading leg between the Uchiha's, in a single jerking motion the boy was flipped over his back and laid out on the ground, knocking the air out of his lungs.

Naruto stood over him and stared intently into his black eyes "Look, I'm here to make friends and learn how to be a better ninja, I will even consider you a friend and ally if you do 2 simple things, that goes for the rest of you too" he snapped to the others in the room who flinched "One, Don't make fun of me or the memory of my family" he paused to let those words sink in a little bit "And two, don't try to hurt those that I consider friends, you do that and we won't have a problem, If you don't... well getting your ass handed to you is the least of your worries" his cold tone sent chills down several peoples' spine. he held his hand out "Names Naruto Uzumaki"

The Uchiha glared at the hand for a moment before grabbing it, "Sasuke Uchiha" he grunted as he was hauled to his feet.

"Nice to meet yah" the Blonde smiled, Confusing everyone there, where had that cold hard look the boy had on earlier gone? It was like it never existed...

"Troublesome" Shikamaru deadpanned from the side.

-ooo-

"OK class, today we're going to be learning how to throw Kunai and Shuriken." The instructor pointed to a wooden target 15 feet away. The chunin stood before the target, showed the class the correct method of handling both thrown weapons, with a quick flick the pieces of bladed death hurtled towards the wooden target, with a meaty thunk all of them hit home, a decent 7 out of 10 kill shots, the other three were not lethal but had it been on a human target would have hobbled them. "Now line up in front of the target and throw the five kunai and shuriken that are provided."

The children rushed to get in line, Naruto found himself near the back of the line, thankfully he had his tail poked back down his pants and his cap back on before the teachers could come back into the room and start something, now outside in the training area he could finally relax a bit."

"Hey Naruto." A voice whispered next to him.

"Hmm?" he turned to the voice and noticed Shikamaru and Choji right behind him. "Yeah what is it?" he whispered back.

"Choji an me were wondering if you wanted to go out for barbacue later today, our treat." Apparently the two took his 'I want to make friends' speech to heart

'Damn they start quick for being big and chronically lazy.' not that he was complaining any, "Sure, where are you going?" He wanted to get a good idea on which restaurant they were going to just to make sure it was a place he was at least tolerated. After Choji told him it was one of his parents restaurants he calmed down a bit, it's not like they would stop him and his friends from eating at his own family restaurant just because of him...right?"

Thankfully that wasn't the case as Choji's father was there at the barbecue place. Choza had been at the council meeting that night and knew the boy wasn't the fox but its container, and when he and Naruto finally got to talk face to face it only cemented that fact, that and when Naruto had spoken of his love for Ramen Choza had a look on his face as if he'd found a long lost son. He let out a hearty laugh and told the chefs in the back to prepare a feast for his son and friends, needless to say the three academy students had to roll themselves out of the building when the meal was finished. They spent the rest of the day cloud watching and just talking about things they found delicious...or troublesome...

-ooo-

"Yo Kiba, keep the mutt off me!" Naruto groaned, scrapping the kiba's newly acquired companion off his shoe as Akamaru was gnawing bits of the straps off.

"Hey I can't help it if he's teething" the boy tried to defend himself.

"Then get him a chew toy dammit!" he growled yanking the dog off his foot and chucking him at Kiba. "And if he EVER humps my leg I will neuter him!" Naruto let out a little ki which made the few people around him sweat, Kiba on the other hand was bug-eyed and nodding in agreement, strangely Akamaru was doing the same...

"Quiet down class! Naruto stop threatening Kiba!"

-ooo-

Shino and Naruto sat across from each other in the school library, Naruto had a book on tactics and theory, while shino had a book on the many different species of insect of the leaf village, hardback 1st edition if I'm not mistaken.

"Shino." Naruto nodded to the boy

"Naruto." He nodded back

"..."

"..."

"..."

"Good day Naruto-san" he stood up and started to walk away.

"You too Shino-san" He continued to read. Odd how he respects silence like that...

-ooo-

Naruto was walking through the hall towards his next class, so far the academy was pretty awesome, thought the teachers taught a bunch of boring stuff almost every day, only letting them out to do exercises and practice the basic three. He stopped when he noticed Hinata was nearby looking at him.

"Hey Hinata-chan!" he waved to the pale hyuuga heiress, trying to be polite to the odd girl.

*Thump*

"Hinata! Why did you faint. Hinata!"

-ooo-

"Alright class, today we're going to have sparring matches to test out the taijutsu forms you've learned so far, any form is allowed but lethal moves and strikes are strictly forbidden." The chunin instructor pointed out Sasuke "Sasuke you're up, now who's going to spar with him?"

None of the other kids wanted to get in the ring with him since out of the entire class Sasuke had the highest scores in taijutsu, that is if you're not counting...

"I'll fight the bastard!" Naruto grinned as he walked to the front of the line.

"You sure about that dobe, you got lucky last time, this time I'll kick your ass." He pulled his shirt off exposing his pale chest to the girls of the class, as expected...

"Oh my god Sasuke is soooo hoooot!" the voice was piercing and could only belong to one Sakura Haruno.

"No doubt" Another loud voice agreed, this one belonged to Ino Yamanaka.

both were fangirls, both fucking scared Naruto to no end, however, for a good prank he would be willing to burst a few bubbles. He grinned ferally at Sasuke before slowly unbuttoning his shirt, he wore button ups so he wouldn't have to remove his hat to take the shirt off, but oh what a wonderful sound it was to hear most of the girls in the class gasp, along with a few of the boys as well...wait what...

Naruto was pretty built, his constant training with Anko had hardened quite a few areas of his body leaving lean muscles, it wasn't grossly disproportionate for his age, it simply flowed with his body type, compact muscles on a compact frame, and on naturally tan skin no less.

'Que the fangirls in three, two, ...'

"OH MY GOD!"

'One' he mentally chuckled. "Ok Sasuke, let's get this over with!" he took up the academy stance since it was what they were learning and egged the Uchiha on with a 'come get some' motion

Meanwhile on the sidelines.

"Sakura...?"

"Yeah Ino?"

"Naruto is hot...like really, really hot."

"Yeah I know..."

"What should we do?"

"I don't know..."

"..."

Hinata meanwhile was passed out with a massive nosebleed and whispering something about snuggling foxy blondes.

-ooo-
