Naruto and Roze walked into the Namikaze compound.
'Damn! This place is huge! Bigger then the Hyuuga compound, I wonder how Hinata is?' his thoughts drifted as he kept the train of thought going on and on, he started thinking about what his life would have been like if his mother hadn't banished him from the clan, though, from what cloud said, same results, only later on in his life. His hands clenched in anger, subconsciously he was releasing killing intent en mass.
"N-Naruto-kun, c-c-calm down!" Roze pleaded.
Realising what he was doing, he started to mentally bury the K.I, after a few minutes he took a deep, calming breath, and let it out slowly.
"Sorry Roze-chan, didn't realize I was letting that out," he smiled apologetically.
"It's fine Naruto-kun," she grinned at him, making mental note not to piss him off. 'if that was his killing intent without his Kaosugan, with it, it must be life wrenching!' walking up the steps to the front door of the compound. "welcome to your new home, Namikaze Naruto!" she called out. Naruto watched her leave the compound and stared at the gate for a few minutes before he turned around and pounded the door with the side of the door, then it opened, a man easily in his 60's appeared behind it and beamed at the teenager.
"Ah, you must be Naruto, Cloud-sama sent a messenger Hakumei Ookami to tell me to prep Minato old room for you, if you ask me this old place needs more upstanding youth like yourself," the man said. "Ah look at you, you seem to be in the brilliant springtime of youth."
Naruto stopped dead in his tracks, looking closer at the old man, he had to absolutely HUGE grey and black eyebrows that looked like hamsters, he had a bowl shaped haircut , under his butler robes he noticed the green spandex under, he suddenly shuddered. "Uh, you wouldn't happen to be related to Maito Gai, would you?" Naruto said fearing the butlers answer.
"Know him, I am Maito Ishi, father of Maito guy, master of The Gouken style
And currently in the summer time of youth!" he said striking a good guy pose.
'On the bright side, he ain't as loud as Gai' Naruto thought as he remembered the overly load and…eccentric! Jonin. "Uh, Ishi?
"Yes youthful young sir?"
"Do you think you can teach me Gouken? My Taijutsu is a little lacking compared to my Ninjutsu, Kenjutsu and Ninpou. Kyuubi is teaching me a style he knows called Kameken and another one called kitsunehiken," Naruto said remembering the basic stances of the styles.
"hmmmn I can do you one better, Gouken is derived from Kameken, I shall teach you the Kameken! And then, I shall instruct you on the art of Gouken."
And so Ishi led Naruto to his new room, after packing away his things, the two went off to one of the Dojo's to begin his training, Ishi started by drawing gravity seals on the boy on the boy X3. Then after a series of "warm ups" (many MANY push ups sit ups crunches squats pull ups etc etc) they started going through the basics of Kameken, after awhile they started sparing, despite his age, Ishi hit's were hard and fast, never more energy then needed. By the end of the training session, Naruto was completely exhausted he fell to the group panting heavy. Was, a lot of effort, he managed to get back to his room before falling on the bed, not bothering to take off his clothes. He then had an odd dream of what things would've been like if he didn't bring Sasuke back and hadn't been banished, it was to say the least, idiotic. (his dream followed the storyline)

Higurea-Kage's office
"My god, he kept up with Ishi for 5 hours straight, and he hasn't even activated his bloodline yet!" the Higurea-kage said in disbelief.
"Told you he was something special, I guess that run in with those nobodies opened his heart, if that Keyblade I saw was any indication. I recommend putting him with Sora and Roxas, that would give them a very well balanced team, since Naruto is a mid to close range specialist especially now with the Keyblade and Ishi teaching him Taijutsu, Roxas and Sora both have midrange skills as well as close, they use mana with their Keyblades down to an art."
"And as a Jonin sensei?"
"My old partner, Soutou Zach."
"Hmmmm. Infiltration, demolition and combat, very well, congratulations Namikaze-dono, your nephew is on Higurea's first S.W.A.T team since the Shodai Higurea-kage."
"Thank you sir, anything else?"
"Yes, describe the Keyblade to me," the Higurea-kage intertwined his fingers and his lower half of his face.
"The hilt had a jewel at the top of it, and demon wings as a guard, the blade was a basic katana and the key was a creasant moon… if I may, why are you interested?"
"Because, the Keyblade is a very interesting weapon, it promotes mana even if you aren't a wizard, and if you have chakra, it was said that one that can control chakra and holds the Keyblade can separate the Qi and Reiatsu, the physical and spiritual concepts of chakra, and could also merge mana and chakra. Two forces that counteract each other to the point of death," he paused to consider his words. "If this was true, it would only be a matter of time before he gains enough knowledge of how to use the Keyblade."
"Don't you mean mastery?"
"There have been no masters of the Keyblade, and there are still none, all that can be gained is knowledge of them, and a twilight Keyblade is a very interesting blade, if I am correct, Roxas and Sora have light Keyblades and Riku has a dark Keyblade."
"Is that all?"
"Yes, thank you cloud," the Kage opened a drawer and rooted around. He pulled out a Hitai atai(AN: no idea how to spell, anyone wanna correct me on that?). "Give that to Naruto and tell him to meet his new team at Higurea clock tower at 8:am sharp. Dismissed."
"Hai, Yondaime-sama," Cloud said standing at attention, before walking away.

The next morning 6:29
Naruto got up stiffly before going about his morning rituals, after stepping out of the shower, he shook his hair to get the worst of the drips off, whizzing through hand seals he preformed one of the many jutsu Kyuubi had taught him.
"Ninpou : Ke-sensu :kyoufu joumae!" his hair instantly went into the style he wanted, dry and all. Kami was chakra a miracle . Tying his bandana and putting the dice and other decorations on, he then put the Kitsune/Ookami coin on the finish his work, putting on the rest of his outfit, he took out a hat as well, it was a three point hat, (AN: so what, another of Jack's clothing bits, and if your wondering, I'm not gonna make him say 'savvy', savvy) twirling the hat between his fingers before putting it on, walking down to the kitchen, he saw Ishi work on eggs and rashers, heading into the dining room he saw a woman with long black hair that reached to her mid back, she looked over to him and smiled, making him blush.
"Oh, and who might this be Cloud?" the woman asked.
"Tifa, meet my nephew Naruto, Naruto, I'd like to introduce my fiancé, Lockhart Tifa," Cloud said before taking a drink of coffee. "catch," he said throwing the headband to Naruto, who catches it easily.
Looking over the head band was a dark grey, bordering on black, the insignia on it had a creasant moon on it like Clouds, but what was strange was it also that on the other side were sun rays. "Uh, Cloud? Why does my Hitai-atai have a different insignia then yours?"
"Because Naruto-kun," It was Tifa who answered. "Cloud myself and a few others are part of a group called the Mayonaka Shikon. Our headbands hold the moon only to signify that, I hope that helps you."
"Thanks Tifa-obasan."
"Your to meet your new team at the twilight clock tower at 08:00 hours sharp, but until then, sit down and have some breakfast," he said gesturing to Ishi who was bringing in the boy's breakfast was a smile.
"Breakfast is the most youthful meal of the day, eat it all and you will be sure to stay healthy enough to stay in the springtime of youth like your uncle here," he said striking a nice guy pose after he set his breakfast in front of him.
Eating his breakfast fast, he went out the door and decided to talk to Kyuubi for a bit. Getting into the lotus position, he let his body go onto autopilot.

Narutos' mindscape
Upon entering his inner mind he let out a low whistle of admiration at what use to be a sewer. Now it was a clearing, a waterfall was tumbling down a hill the pool below was partly frozen, he could feel a light breeze upon his face. Up in the sky was a lunar eclipse, signifying either his light and dark jutsu, of the fact he was a twilight nin, with Kyuubi, you couldn't tell, in the middle of the clearing a roaring bonfire was raging, beside it, was a woman in a simple red kimono that accented her natural beauty with a collar with seals all over it, her ears were that of a foxes and she had nine tails flowing behind her. 'wait! Nine tails? Fox ears!? Oh my Kami, the feared Kyuubi no Kitsune is a CHICK…why am I not all that surprised is a better question, so that's how she knew that hair styling jutsu, I'm getting to used to this type of shit' he just stared at her for a few seconds before shaking his head to get rid of a seen he'd read from that little orange book Sarutobi kept in a hidden under his desk.
"Hey Kyuubi," he said walking over to her.
"My name isn't Kyuubi kit, that's a title any bijuu can achieve just like the other eight tails."
"So what is your name then?"
"Kaikoku-Hana no kitsune, heiress of the kitsune clan… I hope the clan is alright, father is probably going insane with worry, he was always a little too protective of the family," Kaikoku sighed to herself.
Naruto paused to think, he began putting angles together in his head. "I think…I have an idea to get you out of my head, if even for a while," Naruto said slowly making Kaikoku's head snap to face him. "I'd have to give up summoning toads though."
"Your thinking of signing the kitsune contract aren't you?" she said slowly.
Naruto nodded his head. "Gotta tell Gamabunta-Bosu first, I'll be back, kitsune-hime." he said, unaware of the now heavily blushing kitsune he left in his wake
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX
Outside in one of the Namikaze training grounds
"Kuchiyose no jutsu - Gamabunta!" Naruto called out slamming his out stretched palm on the ground.
"Gaki, why have you summoned me, there is no' one to fight," the boss toad said in an annoyed tone
"I know Gamabunta-sama," Naruto said seriously.
" 'Sama'? Okay Gaki, what's happening?" the toad boss asked.
"Konoha threw me out of their village, and your loyalties lie to Konoha, it would be a conflict of interests for your tribe if I had to fight Jiraiya, or any apprentice he may take," Naruto said, in a deep bow.
"So, you wanted to inform me before you broke the contract, a very honourable action, may I ask, your other reason?" the huge toad eyed him suspiciously.
"I wish to help Kyuubi see her father again, and to do that, I need to sign the kitsune contract,"
"A truly honourable person you are, Gaki, but you go not have to worry of conflicting interests. The toads are quickly losing their respect for Jiraiya, he summons us for mediocre reasons, and to top that off, is a complete pervert, you have no need to break you contract with us, pull up your sleeve and hold out your arm," the boss toad told his summoner.
Doing as the huge toad said, he pulled up his sleeve and hold it out. The toad took out unsheathed his blade and gave Naruto a pin prick with the point. Blood flowed from the wound, before running back up the arm, forming a blood red toad. A summoning tattoo. "So what does this mean Bosu? I never got to around to studying the seals if summons, sorry."
"It is fine young tadpole, that tattoo means even if you sign another contract, you still keep your link to the toads, now, how bout some sake to seal the deal!" the huge toad boomed bringing a large bottle of sake from under his haori.
"Sure thing boss," Naruto grinned. Unknowing to the boss toad, Naruto opened his mental link with Kaikoku. 'Kaikoku-chan, I need you to burn the alcohol before it hits my system? Is that alright?'
"yes Naruto-kun, it's fine, can't have you drunk for your team meeting, or you summoning my father now can we?" Kaikoku grinned as she felt him shudder. Fear or excitement she didn't know.
And so the toad and the boy shared their drink, when offered seconds Naruto looked at his watch and saw it was almost time for his new team meeting, politely declining Gamabunta's offer, he went off the clock tower to meet his team, hopefully, it was better then a brooding emo avenger and a sluttish no skill fangirl.

Twilight clock tower, 07:45
Naruto arrived at the tower fifteen minutes early, letting a second whistle of admiration for the day. 'Never had anything this tall in Konoha!.' Tipping his hat up and craning his neck he saw two figures sitting on the ledge under the clock face, walking up there by the steps would take forever, channelling chakra to his feet, he sprinted up the side of the tower. Three minutes of sprinting later we find he was up and walking to the two figures, the two just looked at him.
"Yoh," the one with the spiky blonde hair said, tossing him an ice-pop.
"Thanks," Naruto said biting into it, "Gah!… Damn, that's salty, majorly sweet too!" he grins, "Makes a nice combo though."
The two grinned back the one with the spiky brown hair spoke next "wouldn't think them a good match if ya' heard the name though. You have to taste it to believe it's good."
"What's the name?"
The two looked at each other before looking up at Naruto. "Salty sweet ice-cream," the two said in unison.
"Anyways, I'm Naruto, your new team mate."
"I'm Namikaze Sora."
"I'm Namikaze Roxas."
Naruto's eye's widened, he had more family then an uncle and future aunt, "Is Cloud your uncle?" he asked.
"Yeah," the two answered in unison again.
"Sweet, I got more family!" he jumps around whooping.
"Say wha?" Roxas was confused
"yeah, what Roxas said."
"My dad was Namikaze Minato, I've been living alone in Konoha all my life, now I have family, WOOOHOOOO!" he whooped, jumping off the side of the tower.
"NARUTO!" the two shouted, getting up. Only to see his head pop up from the below the ledge.
"Yeah?" he said nonchalantly.
Roxas, took off his hat and whacked him across the top of the head and pushed the hat back on. "Don't do that you Baka, we thought you jumped to your death!" he shouted, while Naruto was rubbing the bump on his head. "How the hell are you even sticking to the wall?!"
"Chakra."
"Well, that explains it," said a new voice behind them.
They all looked behind them too see a man with a huge Zanbatou on his back in a black outfit (AN: solder FIRST CLASS) and a goofy smile on his face and the single creasant moon on his Hitai-atai to show he was a member of the Mayonaka Shikon.
"I see your enjoying yourselves," he said, "I'm your new Jonin instructor, Soutou Zach, at your service." he did a mock bow. "Now, let's go to my favourite Karaoke bar to learn a little about each other!" he said opening a mana portal and ushering everyone through. When they all stepped through they were in a nice place, no one was singing at the moment, but that didn't dampen the atmosphere. Zach walked through the portal behind them, bringing them to a corner suite when they were all comfy, he began. "Okay, I'll start to show you how I want to do this, you know my name, so I'll skip to my likes and that. I like ice cream, my fiancé Aerith, the buster blade at the end of the suite, strawberry sundaes, singing karaoke and surfing. I dislike brain freeze's, bad hair days, and the wait till my marriage. My hobbies are practicing kata, eating sundaes and singing karaoke. My dream is to form the 7 swordsmen of the twilight, Including me I have two, and marry Aerith. okay then, you next Blondie."
Two of them just gave him dead stares which made him shiver, "which one" they both asked in a deadpan voice in unison.
"The one with the hat?" he chuckled nervously.
"Fine, my name is Namikaze Naruto, I like foxes, toads, ramen, some friends I have back in Konoha and practicing jutsu, Kai-hime teaches me," he paused here. "I dislike most of Konoha, people who hurt foxes, orochimaru and all Uchiha, except maybe Itachi, and the three minutes it takes to cook ramen. My hobbies… practising using my Keyblade (Roxas and Sora looked at him shocked) eating ramen, learning new Ninjutsu, and taijutsu kata, and might be hanging out with my two cousins there, and any friends whey may have. My dream is to find away to release Kai-hime fully without killing both of us."
"Very well done, feel like singing some Karaoke?" he asked, stars in his eyes.
"Do I have to?"
"Yes," he said eye's going serious for a split second.
"Fine," he sighed and made his way to the stage, looking through the files, he found the one he wanted. Walking up to the microphone he spoke nervously. "Okay, for this is the first time I've ever done this before, so don't be too harsh." hitting the play button, (Bryan Adams - you can't take me) the music started.
You can't take me Che!

Hey huh hey huh hey huh hey huh
Oh yeah I'm free
Naruto took a deep breath as he walked back down, everything was silent for a moment, before the cheers and claps started, it felt great to him, and he knew, that they didn't hate him at all walking back to sit with his team he felt good.
"Now that! was awesome, nice going dude, alright, you with the brown spiky hair, your up"
"Okay then, I'm Namikaze Sora, my likes are my girlfriend Kairi, my brother Roxas, my new cousin, unique key chains, my friends Riku, Donald and Goofy Hayner Pence and Ollette and salty sweet ice cream, my dislikes are the 'disciplinary committee' and those who actually believe those idiots, people who go on and on about youth and people who wear spandex unless it's girls. And my dream is to master the Keyblade."
"Alright then, now get up there and sing!" Zach smiled.
After seeing Naruto go up he felt it would be good, so he went up as well, going up the steps he chose his song and went to the microphone, " okay, my song is Robbie Williams, friend like me!
Well Ali Baba had them forty thievesScheherezad-ie had a thousand talesBut master you in luck 'cause up your sleevesYou got a brand of magic never failsYou got some power in your corner nowSome heavy ammunition in your campYou got some punch, pizzazz, yahoo and howSee all you gotta do is rub that lampAnd I'll sayMister Aladdin, sirWhat will your pleasure be?Let me take your orderJot it downYou ain't never had a friend like meNo no noLife is your restaurantAnd I'm your maitre d'C'mon whisper what it is you wantYou ain't never had a friend like meYes sir, we pride ourselves on serviceYou're the bossThe king, the shahSay what you wishIt's yours!

He finished the song punching his fist into the air, the crowd applaud loudly, like they had with Naruto. Grinning he walked back to their suite.
"Good on you Sora, great finish, now, other Blondie," Zach said with a grin making Roxas's eyebrow twitch.
"alright then, my name is Namikaze Roxas, my likes and dislikes and dreams are pretty much the same as Sora's except my girlfriends name is Namine.
"Great, now get up there and sing!"
"Yeah sure" he sighed. Walking up the stage he picked the song he wanted and walked to the microphone. " This song is the scripts - before the worst"
It's been a while since the two of us talkedAbout a week since the day you walkedKnowing things would never be the sameWith your empty heart and mine full of painSo explain to me, how it came to thisTake it back to the night we kissedIt was Dublin city on a Friday nightYou were vodkas and coke, I was Guinness all night We were sitting with our backs against the worldSaying things that we thought but never heardWho would have thought it would end up like this?Where everything we talked about is gone And the only chance we have of moving on Is try to take it back Before it all went wrong Before the worst, before we mend Before our hearts decideIt's time to love again Before too late, before too long Lets try to take it back Before it all went wrong There was a time, that we'd stay up all nightBest friends talking till the daylight Took the joys alongside the painWith not much to loose, but so much to gainAre hearing me? Cause I don't wanna miss,Set you a drift on memory bliss It was Grafton Street on a rainy night I was down on one knee and you where mine for life We we're thinking we would never be apart With your name tattooed across my heart Who would have thought it would end up like this?Where everything we talked about is gone And the only chance we have of moving on Is try to take it back Before it all went wrong Before the worst, before we mend Before our hearts decideIt's time to love again Before too late, before too long Lets try to take it back Before it all went wrong If the clouds don't clearThen well rise above it, well rise above itHeavens gate is so nearCome walk with me through Just like we use to, just like we use toLets take it back Before it all went wrong Before the worst, before we mend Before our hearts decideIt's time to love again Before too late, before too long Lets try to take it back Before it all went wrong!
Roxas finished with an exaggerated bow, and was met with a thunderous applause, walking back to his seat, grinning the whole way there, sitting down he let out a content sigh.
"Very well done, Blondie, kinda milked the bow though, other then that, you all did great, and I'll be sending you to the Chunin exams in Suna in five months, until then, we have a lot of missions, training and karaoke to do," he grinned at his now grinning students, oh they were going to have fun at the exams
