Just to let you know I've never went to Akita before, so the details of the place are 100 not accurate. I'll try my best to use my imagination, but I doubt that it'll work…Well anyway, hope you enjoy this chapter, I don't own Naruto, and thanks for the reviews.

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

'Hey, gaki wake up. We're at Akita, hey! Are you listening?' Kyuubi screamed at the ten year old that was still asleep on the train. Koto groaned and sat up, the right side of his face was aching from sleeping with his face squished against the window.

"Hn," he looked out the window, got up and left the train.

-------------------------------------------------------------

'Man this place is huge…' he thought as he headed out of the train station, there were buildings that were high above his head, loads of people, cars, some bicycles…big change from the small village that he lived all ten years of his life.

'Think you can find someone in a place like this? You probably won't be able to find anyone here, you'll just miss them and not know that they're there in the first place,' Koto looked around.

'Maybe if I start now, I might be able to find something…' his stomach growled, '...and maybe someplace where I can eat…' Koto started to walk to one direction that had lots of shops.

'You'll have to find a place to stay as well…or I could start your training by making you sleep out here…' Kyuubi's thoughts trailed off as he thought of ways to start his training.

'AND maybe I should start making you hunt food by yourself…' Koto's face started to lose colour, he didn't like the fact that he might have to eat a rabbit. He continued to go through the busy street; people were hurrying here and there, either going into shops or they kept walking towards their destination. This was way different from Kiraniville, probably ten times more different from the small village.

'Its gonna to take a while till I'll get used to this,' he thought as he walked by a book store…He stopped with one foot in the air, a book that was on the display window caught his eye, the second book for Naruto was released. He took a step back and stood in front of the display.

'Let me guess, you're going to buy that, right?' Kyuubi asked as Koto continued to stare at the book.

'I guess, I'm just surprised that it's already out…usually it's supposed to be out about a few months after the first book is out.'

'Hm…maybe it's because the author is a reincarnation and knows what happens in Naruto's life?' Koto went into the store, grabbed a copy of the book off the shelf, and started to flip through it.

The front page had some information, but it was unnecessary information…unless you count the first paragraph, by the looks of it, he likes ramen. (The second book in the manga is right beside me, so I know that there's a part when he mentions something about ramen. If you don't believe me, check for yourself.)There were some drawings of how the characters looked like before, and that's about it…and there's a picture of what looks like his home…and something "explaining" what Icha Icha Paradise was about.

'I guess I should buy it…' he went to the counter and bought it as some people in school uniforms came in. A blonde hair girl caught his eye, 'She reminds me of…Ino…' he thought as he started to leave.

'Now that that's done, why don't you find a nice park to sleep in?' Kyuubi said in a friendly tone, Koto tensed up and twitched.

'I've got a bad feeling about this…'

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

(Few hours later…)

Koto was soaked in sweat from head to toe, after he found a park and a place where nobody would go to. Kyuubi started his training. First lesson: Tree climbing.

'Can I get something to eat now?' he hadn't eaten anything since he was on the train to Akita.

'When you reach at least half-way up that tree, I'll let you eat something,' Kyuubi had been taking a nap while Koto trained, so he doesn't know how far Koto reached.

'But you can't tell where the half-way point is! Besides, if I don't eat I-'

'Go buy a kunai gaki; you'll be able to remember where you left off. I'll let you take a break for now, since you are a beginner. One more thing, quit going into the scientific stuff that I don't understand.'

'And how do you expect me to find a kunai here? They'll wonder what I'll do with it and I don't-'

'Well, if you can't buy a kunai, make one yourself. If you can't make one, then get senbon needles…' Kyuubi didn't expect that it'll be this hard to find a weapon.

"Senbon…needle. It's one of those needles that you use for medical stuff right? I think I could make them, I doubt that they'll sell it in stores, but I'll check to see if there is any…" he grabbed his backpack and started to head towards the path that lead back to the main path.

----------------------------------------------------------

Minutes later he was eating ramen from a ramen shop that was near the park.

'(Sigh) you still like ramen…' the kitsune was hoping that Koto didn't like ramen.

'I don't like ramen... I'm just too hungry to look for a restaurant. Besides, I still don't know if there's any other places that sell food around here…' Koto hadn't really noticed that people were starring at him, he was the only person there that was a kid, and he was the only one with a big backpack.

"Can we sit here? Everywhere else is full (1)," Koto looked up; the girl that looked like Ino was standing by the table with some other people that were about her age, he nodded.

Immediately they took a seat and started talking like he wasn't there (sweat drops), Koto ate his ramen silently until one of them asked him something.

"Nani?" he mumbled with a mouthful of ramen.

"What are you doing with that big backpack?" repeated the person (this person will remain nameless until I think of a name…) that sat across him.

"Traveling…" … (Everyone at the table is silent…)

"Ano…where's your parents?" the girl-that-looks-like Ino asked after a few moments of silence.

"They're…don't have any…" Koto was able to mumble; he stared at his ramen and continued to eat.

"Oh…" (Another moment of silence)

"Can I take your order?" asked a waiter, they gave her their orders and by the time they were done, Koto was gone.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

With his stomach full, he went to find senbon needles. Kyuubi was grumbling to himself about something, but Koto ignored him.

'Where to find senbon needles… (Sighs) I doubt that they'll have any…' Koto started to think of ways to make senbon needles…

'It's going to be harder than you think. You'll have to fine some strong wood and you'll have to find something that'll make the tips sharp so it could at least cut something.' (I'm imagining that Kyuubi has his arms crossed and is nodding his head. Lol D)

'So you're saying that I find a thick branch and use my Dad's dagger to make it sharp?'

'Yup, find a thick branch and use your dad's dagger…WHAT DO YOU MEAN BY 'YOUR DAD'S DAGGER'!' Koto jumped about a foot into the air.

'My dad traveled a lot to do lectures, he went somewhere and he bought a dagger. I brought it along because it's one of the things that my dad liked most. Besides, I think that he'd like me to have it…' Koto continued to keep walking even if people were staring at him strangely.

'Why didn't you tell me earlier? We could some how make a kunai out of it, and besides, you could have used that to mark where you left off,' Kyuubi started to think that Koto was a baka…

'You never asked. And I forgot about it,' Koto started to head back to the park.

'Where do you think you're going? Didn't you say that you're going to find senbon needles?'

'I'll do it tomorrow, it's getting late.' Koto didn't intend to go around looking for something that obviously doesn't sell in LEGAL stores at night.

'Well then, do some training before you go to sleep. It isn't that late to do some training,' Koto groaned, "At least give me a break…" he muttered under his breath.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Well, that wasn't that bad right? Well anyway, please review…

(1)That ramen shop that Koto went to was kind of small. It just has about five tables or something.

(2)One more thing, if you're wondering how old the people with Ino are, they're about thirteen or somewhere close to that age. I haven't exactly thought about their age, but I'll think about it…
