Chapter three:
Naruto slowly woke up. He turned on his side, and looked out the partially open door that led to the garden. It was sunrise. He lay there, thinking. What would happen today? Naomi said that Kenjiro would tell him about his family. What was so special about his family? Naomi said that his family originated from this village. What was so special about them so that they would be remembered? Why hadn't anyone in Konoha told him anything? Where they afraid? Naruto clenched his fist. He hated Konoha.
A knock from the door startled him and he jumped slightly.
"You awake, dear?" Naomi's voice asked.
"Yeah."
"Get dressed and then go to the kitchen, and I'll make you breakfast before Kenjiro comes for you. Ok?"
He then heard her walk away and sighed. He stood up and got dressed, having slept in just his boxers. He opened the door and retraced his steps from yesterday to appear in the kitchen. Naomi saw him and said,
"Found your way ok?"
Naruto yawned and nodded, grinning. He sat at the table and saw that Keiko was already up. She had her mask pulled down as she was eating rice. She was very pretty, Naruto noticed, with an elegant nose and a curved mouth that complimented her eyes and eyebrows. She grinned at him and waved the peace sign at him, which he returned. Naomi put rice in front of him and he ate eagerly. He soon finished and pushed the bowl away from him. Keiko looked at him, an eyebrow raised,
"Hungry?" She asked. Naruto grinned and nodded. Just then, Kenjiro walked in. He stood beside the table and looked at him,
"Ready?"
Keiko finished her bowl and replaced her mask. She stood up as Naruto did.
"I'm coming as well. I told Naruto that I would take him to get new clothes."
Kenjiro looked at Naruto and said slowly,
"That would be best."
Keiko laughed as Naruto stuck out his tongue at the man, who ignored him. Kenjiro lead them out of the house and the Desdemona Clan property. The village was empty as it was so early in the morning and not many people were up yet. Naruto was not a morning person, so he hated being up at this time. Kenjiro lead them past all the housing and onto a grass field.
"This is the training area. Not much, but hey, most people train at home." Keiko whispered at him. Naruto noticed that the field had a large rock in the middle of it, big enough to climb and train on. Kenjiro walked up to this rock and commanded them to sit down. Naruto and Keiko sat, leaning against the rock. Kenjiro sat cross legged opposite them. He looked at the rising sun and said,
"Kameto and your new team mates will arrive at noon, so we have plenty of time. And I think time enough for you to get a new outfit."
He then turned back to Naruto and asked,
"Do you know anything about your family, and their abilities?"
Naruto shook his head, getting more curious by the second. Kenjiro sighed and whispered,
"Damn Konoha."
He then looked Naruto in the eye and said,
"You are an Uzumaki, the most powerful clan in history, with one of the most powerful Advanced Bloodline limits. Do you understand?"
Naruto stared at him and asked,
"What do you mean exactly?"
Keiko blinked at him and said,
"The Uzumaki was wiped out because people were afraid of their power. The Desdemona Clan actually come from the Uzumaki Clan, so we're related. You have special eyes. The 'Gure- Metsuki.' The abilities, I think, include; Seeing through objects, Copy Jutsus with great accuracy, Increased Speed, Increased Strength, Predict enemy's attacks accurately, Read an enemy thoughts, Able to Disrupt Chakra control, Able to see the Chakra system, see the heat Spectrum, and you can dispel all levels of genjutsus." (Look at the end for the full abilities of the whole bloodline Limit.)
Naruto blinked, not taking it in. Kenjiro cocked his head and said,
"There are two other clans that have come off the Uzumaki line."
Naruto looked at him, an eyebrow raised.
"The Hyuuga and the Uchiha Clans. They have only a few of the Uzumaki abilities and added ones developed on their own."
"You mean I'm related to that Sasuke bastard!" Naruto exclaimed. Kenjiro and Keiko blinked, looked at each other and then shrugged.
"But the point is, do you understand? The Uzumaki clan moved to Konoha soon after it was founded. Which seemed to be a big mistake. You are the Uzumaki prodigy, so be expected to be treated with reverence as you are thought to be dead."
Naruto looked at the ground, thinking about it. His hate for Konoha grew. They didn't see Uzumaki Naruto; they just saw Naruto the demon host. He looked at them and grinned,
"Then I'll be the best ninja in the village!" Kenjiro smiled slightly and said,
"That's the spirit."
Keiko looked at the sun and said,
"Shall we fit our little Uzumaki out sensei?"
Kenjiro chuckled and nodded,
"There's time." He said. Naruto grumbled and asked,
"Where are we going?"
"I told you, to a shop I know. The guy has a good eye on what people look good in, come on." Keiko and Kenjiro then led Naruto to the centre of the town, to a series of shops. They led Naruto to one shop that seemed a plain building with no windows in, and had a rusty Tailors sign above the door.
They walked into the dim shop, which was surprising small, and Naruto couldn't see any clothes, only a counter- with a door behind it, another door opposite the counter- which Naruto guessed was the changing room, and a cabinet with measuring equipment in near the entrance. Naruto turned to Keiko and asked acidly,
"I thought this was a clothes shop."
She cocked her head and said,
"It is. The clothes are kept out back. I told you, the man here has a good eye." She went to the counter and rang the bell.
"Coming! Be there in a minute." Came a voice behind the closed door that was behind the counter.
A few seconds later, the door opened and a portly man came through. He was bald and had small blue eyes. His face was rather podgy and he was sweating slightly in the warm shop. He wore a simple shirt and black trousers. He looked at them and saw that Kenjiro and Keiko where Chaldea and he bowed deeply.
"What may I have the honour of doing, masters."
Keiko waved a hand at Naruto and said,
"This is Uzumaki Naruto. He needs new clothes, can you do that?"
"Yes, of course, straight away! Come here, young master." He went to the cabinet and got out some measuring tape. Naruto stepped forward and the man looked him up and down, frowning.
"Take the jumper off, Naruto-sama please."
Naruto did so and Keiko commentated to Kenjiro,
"He looks skinny. You couldn't tell with that thing on."
The man, who told Naruto that his name was Nobu, took measurements of Naruto's arms, waist, chest, legs and even the face. He then looked him up and down once again and disappeared through the back door. Naruto turned at Keiko, who was looking at him, her eyes twinkling with amusement, and he asked acidly,
"Shall we get you measured out too?"
"No, I'm fine thank you."
A couple of seconds later, Nobu came back with some black clothing and handed it to Naruto.
"There, put that on first and we'll see if anything is missing, ok. Oh and these."
He said, handing Naruto a pair of black knee high boots with shin guards on, like Kenjiro's. Naruto went to the changing room that Nobu pointed out and got changed. He looked in the mirror after he had finished and sniffed.
He was wearing a leather vest with a few pockets on and leather trousers, and black leather gloves that left the fingers uncovered and went up to the elbow. He looked alright in it, he thought. He put the boots on and stepped out. Kenjiro looked him up and down,
"It suits you." He said. Keiko winked and said,
"Watch out, your gonna have half the village girls after you."
Naruto stuck his tongue out at her as Nobu came up too him, frowning.
"Something's missing. Ah, I know, I'll go get it now." Then went into the back room again. They stood in silence for about ten minutes, and then Nobu came back in carrying a full length red leather coat, which he was holding up. It had a belt sewn into it, making the bottom half flare out slightly, and it had a slit up the back to the waist. It had a collar, similar to one on a blazer with silver studs lining it.
"Sorry I took so long, but I wanted to add something."
He held up the coat backwards to show a weird symbol. It was a swirl with, in the middle, a black five pointed star with little black triangle in the gaps between each point, all in a grey circle.
"What's that?" Naruto asked.
"That, young master, is your clan symbol. Wear it with pride."
Naruto stared at it curiously. He had a clan symbol? Cool.
He took the coat and put it on, leaving it open at the front. Keiko clapped her hands together and said,
"It's perfect!"
Kenjiro, however, shook his head and Nobu looked a bit nervous at that.
"Something's' missing." He said. Nobu looked at Naruto and asked,
"What?"
Kenjiro, with a grin, reached into his pouch and pulled out a forehead protector, with the demon village's symbol on it, and handed it to Naruto.
"This." He said.
Naruto took it eagerly and was about to tie it onto his head when he paused, and then wrapped it around his neck, thinking that that would look better. Keiko seemed to agree, as she nodded.
Kenjiro smiled and said,
"You'll make a good Chaldea. Come, you need to meet your team. They know they're getting a new member, and they want to meet you, and it's about time you met them."
Naruto nodded eagerly and Kenjiro lead them back to the training field. Next to the big rock, Naruto spotted three figures, two female and one male.
The male and the shortest female were about the same age as Naruto, but the other woman was about twenty-six years of age. This woman turned to them as they approached. She greeted Kenjiro and Keiko and then turned to Naruto, an eyebrow raised,
"So this is the Uzumaki you were talking about. He looks Promising. I'm Dakini Kameto, I'll be your teacher."
She had hazel eyes with angled eyebrows, but you couldn't see the bottom half of her face as it was hidden by a white mask, like Keiko. She had her forehead protector on her head, keeping back her blonde hair, but some of the fringe framed her thin face. The rest of her waist length hair was tied in a plait. She wore a top similar to Keiko's, but a light blue colour and Naruto could see the Chaldea badge on it, near the neck. Her stomach was covered in bandages, and she had a blue belt about her waist. Like Keiko, she had two pieces of material at the front and back of her legs, but Kameto's was blue and only went to mid thigh. She wore the kunai pouch on her left leg, and her legs were covered in tight fitting green trousers. She wore shin guards and wore the traditional Ninja sandals. Most of her arms were left bare, but she wore a spiked guard on her lower arms, that went to cover the back of her hand.
She gestured to the girl,
"This is Taraka Kichiro."
The said girl had emerald green eyes, a long pointed nose and a small mouth. Her jet black hair was tied in a low ponytail at the neck and ran down to the middle of her back. Her fringe was messy and framed her small face, with a small bit wrapped in white string at her left ear. She wore a chocker on her neck, with the collar to her t-shirt just underneath it, just making it visible. The t-shirt was white, and ended with an upside down V at her stomach, leaving her stomach bare. The sleeves stopped just short of the shoulder. On the left arm, near the sleeve, she wore a small band with braiding and feathers on it. On both arms, she wore an elbow guard, with her lower arm wrapped in a light blue material, and on her hands, she wore Jounin gloves. She wore a belt with a white mini skirt. She wore the kunai pouch on her left leg, and she wore plain leather boots that ended mid-thigh. Naruto saw she had a Chaldea badge, on her collar. Kichiro looked Naruto up and down and said,
"You look nice. Pleased to meet you."
Kameto then gestured to the boy.
"This is Asura Kuro."
The boy had mud-coloured brown hair, with deep brown eyes. His brown eyes showed that he had a violent personality, so Naruto made a mental note not to cross this guy. The boy had a pointed nose and a sneering mouth, along with a pointed chin. His messy brown hair was cut short, just a little shorter then Naruto's. He wore a simple grey t-shirt, with a zip running down the front. He wore a brown jacket over the top, open at the front. He wore a plain belt and black trousers with the kunai pouch on the left thigh and the traditional ninja sandals. He also had a chain hanging from the pocket on the right side of his trousers. Kuro's Chaldea badge was on his jacket, near the collar. Yep, thought Naruto, not a guy to cross. Kuro scowled at him, but said nothing.
Kameto looked at Kuro and scowled at him. The boy didn't take notice and busied himself with brushing imaginary dust off his clothes. Kichiro giggled and Kuro glared at her. Kenjiro patted Naruto on the shoulder,
"Well, Keiko and me need to go and train. You'll meet my other two students later, but for now, stay with them, ok?"
Naruto looked at Kuro and nodded. The two the walked off, talking quietly to each other. Kameto motioned for them to sit down. Naruto sat next to Kichiro, as she seemed nice, not like the pompous Kuro.
"Naruto, tell us about yourself."
Naruto put an elbow on his knee and lent his chin in his hand, sighing.
"I come from the good-for-nothing village Konoha, I like Raman and I'm going to prove to those Konoha bastards that I am not a demon."
Kuro looked at him, a puzzled frown on his face.
"What do you mean, prove you're not a demon? You're a host; all you do is carry it about."
"Tell that to Konoha. They thought I was Kyubi no Yoko. They wanted to kill me, to get ride of the demon. The beat me when I was little and never let any of the children play with me."
Kichiro gasped and then hugged Naruto, surprising him. When she looked go, she patted his check and said,
"Don't worry, you'll be treated the opposite here."
Naruto shrugged and said,
"Well, I hope so."
She smiled a sweet smile at him, which made her look younger then she really was.
Kuro looked from Naruto to Kichiro and then said,
"You gonna beat them up?"
"Well, there are a few I want to. Especially Uchiha Sasuke."
"A branch clan?"
Naruto nodded, grinning, thinking about the Uchiha's reaction to the fact that he was stronger then him. Yes, he would prove them wrong.
Kuro grinned a wicked grin,
"Want help? I love beating people up, and I should have the right, you being my team mate."
Naruto nodded, he had to rethink his previous view of this boy. He seemed the violent type, but seemed loyal to his team mates.
They sat there talking until the sun went down and Kameto dismissed them. Kichiro and Kuro walked off in one direction, while Kameto lead Naruto to the Desdemona compound. As they walked, she asked,
"What do you think?"
"Well, they seem alright, but it's too soon to make judgments."
Kameto nodded in approval and said,
"Tomorrow, I will start your training. The other two will have a day off. In the morning, you are to be trained by me, and then the afternoon, you are Hiraku's student. He needs to teach you that bloodline limit of yours."
They eventually reached the Desdemona compound, to find Naomi waiting outside. Kameto, without a word, handed Naruto over and walked off. Naomi took his hand and led him inside.
"Come on out of the cold, you must be hungry, I'll get you something to eat. How was your day? I love your new look, you look so handsome in it!"
Naruto suppressed a grin and told her about his day as they sat in the kitchen. Keiko came in and listened to him as he told Naomi about Kuro and Kichiro. When he had finished, Naomi excused herself, saying she had chores to do. Keiko, sitting opposite Naruto, asked,
"Do you prefer it here to Konoha?"
Naruto nodded and said,
"They treated me like shit there. Here, people see me, not Kyubi."
"They obviously do not understand the burden we carry."
Naruto nodded. He looked at Keiko's Chaldea badge, on her collar and asked,
"How do you become a Chaldea?"
"Not easy. First, you have to be a host, and then you have to train a lot."
"Chaldea are hosts?"
"Yes. Kenjiro is host of Morfran, the psychic Demon. Kameto is the host of Dakini, the Water Demon, Kuro is host of Asura, the earth Demon and Kichiro I host of Taraka, the Wind Demon."
Naruto frowned and asked,
"Why do all of your names start with 'K' and end with 'O'. And why are your last names the names of your Demons?"
Keiko chuckled and replied,
"As for our first names, it's tradition, as you were raised outside this village, so you didn't know of the tradition. Our last names, well, mine comes from the clan, which was named after the Demon, but for the others, it's different. When one becomes a demon host, they get their last name changed to the one of the Demon. We've decided to keep yours the same as you are an Uzumaki, and I think you want to keep it that way, don't you?"
Naruto nodded, thinking about the two traditions. What did they symbolise exactly?
Keiko yawned and said,
"I'm going to bed, you should too."
Naruto nodded, got up and followed his relative to the sleeping rooms. Naruto opened his room and went inside, seeing that Naomi had got new, casual clothes for him, along with new underwear. He smiled, she was so motherly. He out the clothes in the draws and got ready for bed. As he climbed into bed, he couldn't help to wonder about the next few years.
Uzumaki Bloodline limit (for those who are interested)

Dansu Kyubi no Yoko Dance of the nine tails.
Forms a circle of chakra around the user that then develops into nine chakra "tails" that protects the user. Can also be used as an offence if surrounded by enemies. The chakra acts on its own and user has little control over it. Naruto's version of "Dansu sono akki biyoku"
Sutoringusu
Allows user to produce thick chakra strings that are used as a defence. One from each hand. Can be used to cut through attacks, even thin chakra strings that are impervious to all other attacks. Mainly defensive, but Naruto is able to use it offensively by stretching and changing the chakra strings shape.
