Team 13's training. A teams bonds and secrets revealed.
Naruto, Ino and Hinata were waiting in the training field where Asuma- Sensei had told them to meet him. One thing was going through their minds, where was Aaron?
"Where do you think he is?" Naruto asked.
"I d...don't know N...Naruto-Kun." Hinata said.
"HEY GUYS!" Aaron yelled as he ran towards them. As he came to a stop near them he was hit on the head by Ino. "Ow, what was that for Ino-Chan?"
"You were almost late. Wait, did you say -Chan?" Ino asked surprised to hear Aaron add -Chan to her name.
"Yeah, and I'm late because i fell asleep in my library." Aaron said.
"Well now that Aaron's here we can start our training, that is once Asuma-Sensei gets here." Naruto said.
"Asuma-Sensei's not here yet? I thought he said he would try to get here earlier?" Aaron asked his teammates. Thirty seconds later Asuma came into view of the four Genin carrying a sack. As he got closer the four lined up in front of him.
"Good, everyone's here so we can start our training." Asuma said as he dropped the bag in front of him.
"W...what kind of training a...are we going to be d...doing?" Hinata asked looking at the bag.
"Is it Ninjustu?" Aaron asked.
"I bet its Taijutsu." Naruto stated
"Maybe Genjutsu." Ino said
"Today you'll be working on Chakra control, but first put these on." Asuma then handed a pair of weights to each of the Genin.
"L...leg weight?" Hinata said taking the pair she was given.
"Yes, from today on you'll be wearing them where ever you go. This way you can train even if you on a mission or walking around the Village."
"Sweet." Both Naruto and Aaron said as they started to put the weights on.
"Each weight is ten pound. It may not be much but its best to start small and work your way up." Asuma said.
"Put how will this help with Chakra control?" Ino asked after putting hers on.
"Follow me" Asuma lead them to four trees about ten feet high, each had a kunai in it. "Here you'll be learning to climb a tree without using your hands."
"How are we supposed to do that Asuma-Sensei?" Naruto asked
"Watch." Asuma made the ram hand seal and the started walking up the tree. "You need to focus your chakra into the bottom of your feet. This will allow you to walk up trees and cliffs." Asuma had reached the top of the tree and jumped back to the ground.
"That's so cool!" Naruto said.
"With the right amount of Chakra you'll be able to walk up and down the tree. If you use to much you'll break the bark, if us too little you'll fall on your ass. After collecting Chakra into your feet start running up the tree and when you couldn't get any farther up mark it with the Kunai and jump off." Asuma explained to his students.
"Let's do this!" Naruto said taking the kunai out of the tree and going back to five steps back and, using the ram seal to collect Chakra into his feet, started to run at the tree. Naruto was able to take eight steps before he marked the tree and jumped away.
"Are we going to let that baka bet us?" Ino said before giving it a try. She was able to get ten steps up the tree.
"Hey I say that the first one to get to the top Asuma buys them dinner." Aaron said as he and Hinata gave their try. Hinata got up fifteen steps while Aaron made it thirteen.
"It's a bet. Asuma-Sensei, if I win you have to treat me to all the ramen I can eat." Naruto said before running up the tree again, this time making it twelve steps.
"Not if I beat you to the top baka." Ino said running up the tree.
At the end of the day all three had made a lot of progress. Ino and Hinata were able to make it three feet from the top. Aaron made it four feet and Naruto was five feet from the top.
"Alright everyone, you put in a full day's work. Meet back here tomorrow." Asuma-Sensei said to his team. Hinata and Ino were tired as hell while Aaron was barely winded. Naruto had energy to continue. As Hinata and Ino left for their homes Naruto and Aaron started training again. "Guys trainings over, go home and rest." Asuma said
"Sorry Asuma-Sensei but I would like to keep training." Aaron said as he ran up the tree almost making it to the top.
"But don't you want to go home?"
"Why should we when we have no one waiting for us." Naruto said to Asuma.
Asuma gave a sigh as he blew out smoke from his cigarette. "Come here you two." Both Naruto and Aaron stop what they were doing and walked over to Asuma-sensei. "I know you to have had a hard life, Naruto yours is even harder now because you know why the village hates you." Naruto nodded, "But you two have two something's not most people have." Naruto and Aaron looked at each other.
"What's that Asuma-Sensei?" Aaron asked.
"You have a Will of Fire like none I have ever seen. And you share a bond that none can break." Asuma said smiling. Naruto gave Aaron his foxy grin as Aaron gave him a thumbs up. "Come on what do you say, let's get some ramen."
"Yay, ramen!" Naruto said as the three walked back to the village.
"You do know you're going to regret talking Naruto to Ichiraku's right?" Aaron said to Asuma.
Two days later Naruto, Ino, and Hinata watched Aaron as he tried a Kenjutsu that he learned in a scroll. Aaron had his family katana drawn as he focused chakra into the blade.
"Raikyū!" A ball of chakra formed at the end of his blade, after a few seconds the ball started to give of electricity. Aaron then swung the blade and the ball was launched into the field before disappearing.
"Impressive." All three turned around to find Asuma.
"A...Asuma-Sensei, W...when did you g...get here?" Hinata asked.
"Long enough to see Aarons jutsu." Asuma said as Aaron put his katana beck in its shealth.
"I've...got the...basics of it...but its not...finished yet." Aaron said through pants.
"And it take to much out of you, I think untill you master some chakra contol you shouldn't use that jutsu." Asuma said and Ino and Hinata helped him to his tree so he could rest.
"Yes Sensei I just wanted to see how far I got from learning it myself." Aaron said as he closed his eyes.
"Aaron think you could teach me that justu?" Naruto asked as he was excited that his friend had such a cool jutsu.
"It all depends on your chakra nature Naruto." Asuma said.
"Chakra nature?" Ino asked.
"Yes, jutsu like jutsu's have nature affiliation so does chakra. There are five natures, Fire, Water, Wind, Earth, And Lightning. The Jutsu Aaron just used was a Lightning style." Asuma said.
"When do we learn Chakra nature?" Naruto asked even more hyper.
"After you master tree walking." Asuma said messing up Naruto's hair.
"Then what are we waiting for?" Everyone turned to see Aaron getting up
"Aaron you should rest after using that jutsu." Ino said as he took off his katana and took the kunai from the tree.
"Aaron's like me, we never give up. Well you heard him lets get to work." Naruto said with a smile he took his kunai and walked over to his tree.
"B...but Naruto-Kun are you s...sure he'll be ok?" Hinata asked.
"If you don"t belive Naruto then use you Byakugan to look at Aaron's Chakra." Asuma told the young Hyuuga Heiress.
"Byakugan!" Hinata said as she activasted her Kekkei Genki. She looked at Aaron and saw that his Chakra was back to normal. "T...thats...his Chakra is all replenished. He's f...fine." Hinata said before she looked at Naruto and saw how much chakra he was channaling into his feet. "N...Naruto-kun your using t..to much chakra."
"How can you tell?" Obviously he had not heard Asuma tell her to use her Byakugan.
"M...my Byakugan allow's m...me to see c...chakra." Hinata said as her cheeks began to turn hear and she pushed her index fingers together.
"Thats so cool Hinata!" Naruto told her as he got so close to her. She became to red and embaressed that she fainted. Naruto caught her as she fell. "Hinata are you ok? Do you have a fever?"
'Naruto you Baka.' Ino and Aaron thought. Naruto laid Hinataa against the tree she was using which was on the other side of Naruto's. After three minutes Hinata woke up to find her team around her.
"Hinata, are you ok?" Ino asked. She gave he teammates a shy nod.
"Thats good I thought you were sick or something." Naruto said rubbing the back of his head.
"Alright lets get on to training." Asuma-Sensei said.
"Hai!" All four Genin said and they started running up the tree. After lunch Hinata was able to get to the top first then Ino.
"How did they bet us?" Naruto asked drooping his head knowing he lost the bet.
"That's one difference between you two and two kunoichi. While you two have more chakra to use they have better control." Asuma said.
"Meaning that we need more training on control. Right Asuma-Sensei?" Aaron asked as Ino and Hinata ran down the tree.
"Right, so Hinata as the winner of the bet, where do you want to eat?"
"U...um..." Hinata stammered as she started to blush.
"Hey Naruto, why dont you and Hinata go to Ichiraku for some ramen. I think it might be fun." Ino said nugging him with her elbow.
"I agree with Ino-Chan. " Aaron said
"What do you think Hinata? Would you want to?" Naruto asked, Hinata turned redder than a cherry.
"T...that w...would be n...nice Naruto-Kun." Hinata studderd while pushing her fingers together.
"Great then its settled, Ichiraku's it is." Naruto said pumping his fist into the air.
"First Naruto, You and Aaron have to make it to the top." Asuma told the blond, this earned an 'aw man!' from Naruto before he and Aaron started back on to running up the tree.
"What do we do in the mean time?" Ino asked
"Though you two have more control over your Chakra, your chakra reseaves are small if you compare them to Aaron's." Asuma said as he lit a smoke.
"What about N...Naruto-Kun's?" Hinata asked.
"If we were to compare yours to his then yours, even Aaron's would look even smaller. He has a tramendise amoung of Chakra thats why he need more control then anyone else."
"But how does he have so much Chakra?" Ino asked as she looked over to he fellow blond.
"Thats a question for him to answer not me. Come on I have an Excercise yyou can do to increase your Chakra."
"What are going to be doing?"
"Its an easy exercise, Meditation. By meditating your mind and Chakra networks are at ease, this allows for the chakra researves to grow." Asuma said as he lead Ino a Hinata into the clearing.
Naruto and Aaron where both so close to reaching the top.
"Naruto mind if I give you a little advice before you take Hinata to Ichiraku's?" Aaron asked when he landed off the tree.
"Sure." Naruto said as he collected chakra.
"While your with her, don't go over board with the ramen ok." Aaron started collecting his Chakra as well.
"What do you mean?" Naruto asked as both started running up the tree.
"When both Asuma-sensei and I took you for ramen you ate more then ten bowls. When you take Hinata try eating only three, and don't eat so fast. Not everyone can eat like you." Aaron jumped off right before he reached the top. Naruto was able to make to the top.
"I get it, so this way she won't think I'm a pig." Naruto asked as he jumped off the tree.
"Right, and do you realize what you just did." Naruto shook his head, "You did it Naruto, you made it to the top."
"Good job Baka, you did ok for dead last." Ino said as she, Hinata, and Asuma-Sensei walked over to them.
"Wow, I did it!" Naruto started jumping up and down.
"Ok ok, calm down Naruto. Now that you know the basics all you need to do is improve, eventually you'll learn to walk up the tree seveal time's. You three are done for today." Asuma said to Naruto, Ino, and Hinata.
"What about Aaron?" Ino asked as Aaron started to collect chakra.
"I've almost got it. You guys go ahead, I'm going to stay here." Thre three gave him a nod as they began to walk back towards the village. "Naruto, remember what I told you ok." Naruto gave him a thumbs up. Aaron turned to his tree and started running up it. After four tries he was finally able to get up the tree.
"Good job Aaron by I have a question, Why didn't you use your Kekkei Genki?" Asuma said. This scocked Aaron, he told no one about his families Kekkei Genki.
"Asuma-Sensei how did you know about that?" Aaron asked as they started walking towards the village.
"My father told me about your family. The Mizuryu's were killed during a mission. Also that you now live alone like Naruto." Asuma told him.
"I see, I asume you know about Naruto's house guest."
"Yes I know about the Kyuubi, I've been wanting to talk to him about telling the team. Secrets are on thing that can hurt one's Teamwork."
"I'm not sure he'll like that. You know how the rest of the village treats him. He might worry that Ino-Chan and Hinata-san won't like him when the find about the Kyuubi. I'm sure Hinata-San see's him for himself but I worry about Ino-Chan" Aaron said as the entered the village.
"Ino is a different story, but if you gave her a chance you might be surprised. Well I'll be seeing you around." Asume said as he left Aaron, who decised to go find Naruto.
Naruto and Hinata were walking towards Ichiraku's, Hinata was red being alone with Naruto. As they entered the small ramen stand they were greeted by the owner and his daughter.
"Welcome Naruto, who's your friends?" The chief asked.
"This is Hyuuga Hinata, I'm treating her to dinner." Naruto said as they sat at the bar.
"Oh, is she your girlfriend?" Ayema, the Chiefs daughter asked. This made Naruto red and Hinata even redder.
"N...no, she's my teammate and on of my best friends." Naruto told Ayema who in turned giggled.
"I'm only messing with you Naruto-kun."
"So what will you have today my boy." The chief asked.
"Miso ramen please!" Naruto said
"M...make that t...two." Hinata finally was able to say. The chief nodded and started to cook the two's orders.
"So Hianta-Chan, What do you think about Asuma-Sensei so far?" Naruto asked after a silence had fallen over the shack.
"H...he seems t...to be a g...good sesnei. W...what about you N...Naruto-kun." Hinata said a little suprised with the -Chan Naruto added to her name.
"I think with his teaching we might actually reach our goals. We just can't give up."
"H...hai." Hinata said as the Chief place the two bowls of Miso Ramen in front of the two teens.
"Arigato." Both said before they began to eat. During the corse of the meal Naruto and Hinata would ask each other questions about each other. When they were finished Naruto paid for the one bowl Hinata ate ans the two he ate. As Naruto walked Hinata home they ran into Aaron.
"Yo Naruto-San, Hinata-San how was Ichiraku's?" Aaron asked as he followed them to the Hyuuga compound.
"I...it was very g...good." Hinata said as she started to push her finger's together.
"She right and we learned a lot about each other. Right Hinata-Chan." Hinata gave him a nod right before the reached the main gate to the Hyuuga Compound. Hinata was about to say something when someone came out of the gate.
"Hinata-sama, What are you going with that Demon. Come your late." Said the Hyuuga as he pushed Hinata into the Compound. She tried refusing to no avail.
"You know your going to have to tell her, Ino-Chan too." Aaron said as they looked at the gate that Hinata was forces into.
"Why, what is they hate me and fear me like the rest of the village?" Naruto asked as the started down the street.
"I doubt that Hinata-San will hate you or even fear you. And not all of the village hates you for what happened to you. I count six. Two are on your team, Two feed you ramen, one was your academy teacher, and the last is The Hokage." Aaron said.
"You think they'll accept me?"
"I believe Hinata-San will no matter what. Ino-Chan might take sometime but if you give her a chance she might surprise us."
"When the hell did you get so smart?"
"Asuma told me that, he was the one who thought it might be a good idea to tell them." Aaron said before the turned a corner near the park, They saw a family leaving together.
"Must be nice, having a family." Naruto said as he looked at how happy they were.
"Must be, I've completly forgotten how it felt being with someone who cares about you."
"The first one to ever accept me was the Hokage, but it still wasn't a family."
"A family doesn't always mean having a Mom and a Dad. It means having someone that see's you for who you are and they accepts you. I bet if you told Hinata-San and Ino-Chan you might find yourself with a good family.
"Ok I'll tell them." Naruto said as his spirits got lifted.
"Good, I'll see you tomorrow." Aaron said as he turned down a seperate ally. 'And I'll tell them about my Kekki Genki.'
The next day After a quick warm up of running up the tree's and running down the other side Naruto decided to talk to his team mates.
"Guy's there's something I want to tell you." Naruto said as his head was a little drooped.
"W...What is it Naruto-Kun. I...is something wrong." Hinata asked very concered for the guy she loved.
"You guys remember when Iruka-Sensei told us about the Kyuubi?"
"Yeah, Iruka-Sensei told us it nearly distroyed the Village untill the Yondaime Hokage killed him at the cost of his own life." Ino said feeling smart.
"That's only half right. The Yondaime Hokage was n't strong enough to kill the Kyuubi. So he did the second best thing, he sealed in the body of his son, me." Naruto finished.
"That's Impossable..." Ino was at a lost of words.
"A...Asuma-Sensei, is that true?" Hinata turned to Asuma and asked. Ino turned around to she what he would say.
"What Naruto has said is the truth. You kids were not told this because The Sandaime Hokage made it against the law for anyone to talk about what truelly happen." Asuma-Sensei told them.
"Then why is Naruto telling us this?" Ino asked.
"A wise Sensei once said 'Secrets are on thing that can hurt ones team-work'." Everyone turned to look at Aaron who, to Ino and Hinata's surprise, was unaffected by this story. "Isn't that right Asuma-Sensei." Asuma gave a small laugh.
"Aaron's right. When a team has secrets that means that there's no trust between the member's. What Naruto is doing is trying to build trust."
"Do you guys hate me?" Everyone turned to Naruto. The first to speak was Hinata.
"I c...could never h...hate you Naruto-Kun." She said as he pushed he finger's together.
"You may be annoying, you may be loud, but I could never trully hate my team-mate. Even if he had a demon inside of him." Ino said punching him in the arm. "Asuma-Sensei there is one thing i don't understand. Naruto said The Yondaime Hokage sealed the Kyuubi in his son. Does that mean..."
"Yeah, Uzumaki Naruto is the son of The Yondaime Hogake." Asuma answered the blond Kunoichi. "The only reason no one was told was because the Yondaime Hokage had many dangerous enemies and it would put him in alot of danger."
"N...Naruto-kun, I d...didn't know you had s...such a hard childhood." Hinata said.
"It's even harder then Sasuke-kun's" Ino couldn't believe it. No Sasuke didn't look so cool.
"Sense we're telling secrets, I have something to show you." Everyone turned and looked at Aaron. "Its my Families Kekkei Genki."
"You have a Kekkei Genki?" Naruto asked.
"Ya, Though my family died I still have their scrolls and was able to learn how it." Aaron said before making the dragon hand sign. "Kirinketsu!" Aarons eyes turned red as blood and the his pupils grew into slits, the tips of his hair turned from silver to red.
"Wow, what is that?" Ino and Naruto said at the same time. Hinata was to shock to speek while Asuma just smirked.
"This is my Kekkei genki the Kirinketsu, Its like the Sharingon of the Uchiha and the Byakugan of the Hyuuga but only its different."
"H...how is it d..different?" Hinata asked. A small flame set in Aarons left hand and a small ice crystal floated in his right.
"For years my family could control either fire or ice while in our Kekkei Genki. There has never been any Mizuryu who could control both, till me."
"How can you have both?" Naruto asked, Aaron just gave him a shrug.
"I know not, But I do know that it's know that I can't fully control it all." Aaron then took off his right glove and it gave off a bright white light. After a minute he put the glove back on his hand. Then he stopped using his jutsu.
"That was so cool!" Naruto yelled completly forgetting that he just told everyone he had a demon living inside him.
"Really?"
"N...Naruto-Kun's right." Hinata told Aaron.
"Hinata is right, and we accept both you and Naruto." Ino said.
"Thank you Ino-Chan." Aaron said
"Thank you Hinata-Chan."
"Well if were done with our secret telling we can get on with our training. Sense we all have better use of our Chakra we will be learning Chakra nature." Asuma-sensei said.
"Yes sir."
And with that Chapter three is done.
Please review and i hope you like my story.
Until next time, Kirinketsu!
