Naruto age: 6

After a few weeks of training with Serenity, Naruto could now make ice come from his hands without a source of water around. It wasn't normal ice though. He couldn't turn it to water. It made it so he could only use the ice as a blast or to freeze things. It was cool to be able to do it though. He could also do a lot more things with water. He was training with Serenity next to a pond just outside of the village. Serenity didn't like going near the hot springs for some reason. He was training to use his freezing technique on water. He couldn't freeze the entire pond yet but he was close.

"You're getting better." Serenity said sweetly. She was always sweet to Naruto. To him she didn't seem like much of a warrior. But then she was only dealing with a child. "You want to take a break?" She asked for the fifth time that morning.

"No." Naruto said also for the fifth time. He was working at this hard and didn't want to stop for a break. He kept focusing his chakra and freezing the pond over and over again, turning it back to water after each time.

Serenity worried about Naruto. He might push himself too far. She sat on the bank and watched him. She had been watching him for a wile now. All he ate was Raman and all he did was train or sleep. She wondered why he pushed himself, why he would go so far to get strong. He would only act like a six year old when that Temari girl was around and she was going back to the sand village in a month. Serenity just didn't get Naruto.

Naruto had also learned a couple things from Temari and vise versa. He learned from her the clone jutsu and a few jutsu's that needed a fan. He had been using her fan when he learned them and still needed his own. He had taught her the water clone jutsu and walking up trees. He had also taught her how to walk up frozen trees and on water. They had fun wile they hung out and she was definably smart and caught on fast.

"Naruto I think that's enough for today." Serenity finally said. Naruto looked like he was going to pass out.

"Give me five more minutes." Naruto said. "I know I can do this." He was bound and determent to get this right.

"Naruto." She said slightly raising her voice.

"Fine, fine." Naruto said standing up and walking off. He walked about five yards and stopped at a tree. He ran up it.

"Naruto, I don't want you to use up your entire chakra reserves, stop training now!" She yelled at him.

Naruto looked down at her. He swiftly jumped down and landed about a foot apart from her. He looked up into her eyes. "Nobody else will care if I use up all my chakra and die." He said to her. He hadn't said it in a mean way. He knew it was true but he didn't seem too sad about it either. It had surprised Serenity that he would say that with little or no emotion. Naruto promptly walked back to the gates of the village saying things under his breath.

Serenity followed him but at a large distance. She wasn't sure how powerful his ninja arts were and didn't want to find out first hand.

Later that day Naruto was eating Raman at his favorite Raman stand. He was mowing down as usual. He was thinking about Serenity and how she never told him about herself. All he knew about her was her name, she was Lin Kue, and she had to teach him because her boss said so. She had never volunteered any knowledge of herself. She hadn't even told him her birthday so he could get her a present. She was nice but secretive. As you can guess Naruto's mind was racing with a sorts of things his imagination could come up with. Like if she had done something bad or something.

He would ask her later right now he was eating. He smiled as he shoved more noodles in his mouth.

Serenity was writing her first report on Naruto. She wasn't sure what to report first the fact that he was a good fighter or the fact that he might be unstable mentally. She looked down at the blank paper before her. It was unusual for her to be at a loss of words. Naruto was a complicated kid though. She then wrote what she thought she could. She left out the part where Naruto thought his life didn't matter. She was hoping that she could fix that in him. Besides if Subzero heard that he would be here killing all the villagers. She had never seen the villagers attack Naruto but it was in there eyes. They hated him with a passion and it seemed that they had attacked him sometime in the past. She felt sad for the child.

Naruto was walking down Main Street when he bumped into a young girl. He stood up and helped her up as fast as he could. "I'm sorry it's my fault." Naruto said bowing his head. He couldn't believe he was so absent minded.

"It's ok." the young girl said. She wore a heavy jacket even in the heat of summer. Naruto was surprised by this. "My name is Hinata. What's yours?" she said with a polite smile.

Naruto smiled back. "I'm Naruto Uzumaki, Believe it." He said. He started to laugh.

She continued to smile as she walked away from Naruto. She thought he was funny.

Naruto ran to his apartment. It was about to get dark out and that's when the villagers get really riled up with him. He didn't want a repeat of what happened last year nor did he want to die from a random jutsu send his way. He looked around and found Serenity in the bedroom writing something. He sat on the chair and waited for her to get done. He knew it would be a wile before she got done. He knew what she was writing.
