Well I didn't get any reviews about how people would prefer I get through the training for the story so I just decided on what I think most would enjoy, if you wanted something else and just didn't say, sorry. Hope you like the chapter.

Chapter 4

It was early morning and Naruto could be seen sleeping peacefully, for the moment at least. Kanari was creeping her way into Naruto's room with two buckets and when she got up to Naruto's side she dumped the contents of one of the buckets which happened to be around two gallons of ice cold water right on to Naruto's face. As soon as the water hit Naruto he jumped of screaming, "THAT'S COLD!"

Naruto heard giggling and saw Kanari standing there with an empty bucket next to her and her arms behind her back and was trying to look innocent. Naruto glared at her and said, "What was that for?"

"That was to wake you up for your training Naruto-kun." She said with an innocent smile.

Naruto grumbled and got out of his bed throwing off his shirt and muttered about annoying goddesses. Once his back was turned to her, Kanari took out the other bucket and dumped it over his head again causing him to scream once again. Naruto yelled, "I'm already up what was that for?"

"Pay backs a bitch isn't it?" Kanari responded with her innocent smile.

Naruto gave her a death glare and started throwing anything within reach at her causing her to run from the room laughing her head off at him. Once she was gone Naruto started to dry off so he could change into his training gear he got and left his room to get his breakfast. When he got downstairs he saw Tenshi sitting at the table looking annoyed and was rather wet looking so he asked, "Did Kanari decide to wake you up as well?"

Tenshi grumbled before saying, "Yes, with five different buckets full of ice water."

"Five buckets? She only used two on me." Naruto said to her.

Kanari came into the room at that moment and said, "That's because she should have known better than to go along with your prank the other day."

"But I didn't do anything!" Tenshi cried out.

"You didn't stop him either." Kanari said while shrugging her shoulders.

"What do you expect? I'm a Kitsune, it's in my nature to want to trick or prank someone." Tenshi said defensively.

Kakashi who was in the kitchen drinking his morning tea was chucking to himself as he watched them all banter with each other. After a few more minutes of watching them go back and forth he stepped forward and said, "Alright, knock it off all of you, I'm heading out to HQ for today. Naruto I want you to behave while I'm gone and do whatever they tell you to do in your training. Well I assume Tenshi is also going to be helping you."

Tenshi shook her head and said, "Not for a long while, the only thing I can offer him is how to call upon my chakra that's sealed away still and how to control it, but he is way too young for a human body to handle it. If he uses it for more than about half a minute it will kill him. My chakra is completely toxic to humans unless they are properly taught how to use it."

"Hmm when do you think he'll be able to use it?" Kakashi asked curiously.

"Maybe when he's around 14 years old, and that's taking a chance, it all depends on how fast he progresses with his training from Kanari-chan." Tenshi replied.

"Alright, well I'm heading off, remember Naruto behave and do what they say." Kakashi said sternly.

"Hai, Hai aniki, don't worry. I'll behave for them." Naruto said while rolling his eyes.

Kakashi eye smiled and patted him on the head before he left with a quick, "Ja ne."

Naruto and the two girls then returned to the table and finished eating their breakfast when Kakashi came back in and said, "I just realized, you don't know how to get to the ANBU training grounds do you?"

"No." Was the collective reply.

Kakashi sighed and said, "Well come on then, I can't delay to long so get moving."

Naruto and the others followed Kakashi out of the house with Kanari grabbing a pack of supplies for training and Kakashi picked up Naruto and put him on his back saying, "Hold on tight, and I trust that you; Kanari and Tenshi can follow me over the roofs?"

When Tenshi and Kanari nodded Kakashi took off with them in tow and about ten minutes later they were at the ANBU training ground. Kakashi let Naruto down and said, "Alright this is the training ground you can use, try to stick to this one only so you don't disturb anyone by mistake." And with that he jumped off again heading to HQ.

The group looked around the training ground and was awed by its size alone; it was easily 5000 square feet. Towards the northern area of the training round was a rocky outcropping and in the western part was a small pond; the rest of it was mainly trees with a few more boulders here and there. Kanari looked around very impressed before she said, "This place will work perfectly for what I have in mind Naruto-kun, come over here."

As Naruto walked over to her she sat down cross legged and motioned for him to do the same. Once Naruto sat down the same way she said, "First of all we are going to unlock your chakra so you can use it to enhance your training. Now I want you to meditate; you know clear your mind and relax as much as you can."

Naruto attempted to do this but fell asleep a few times and after about an hour he had been able to do it well enough so Kanari said, "Now, look within yourself and try to find the point where your physical energy and your spiritual energy collide and bring it forth."

Naruto nodded and started searching for his two energies and their colliding point. Another twenty minutes later Naruto found it and grasped it with all his willpower and pulled it forth. A few seconds later, Kanari and Tenshi widened their eyes in surprise as Naruto's chakra came forth. The sudden surge of chakra from Naruto caused the grass around them in about a ten foot radius was flattened. A few moments later the energy subsided and Naruto opened his eyes asking, "Did I do it right?"

Kanari and Tenshi nodded and Kanari said, "Oh you did it alright, you have amazing chakra reserves for your age, by your villages standards you're already at chunin level chakra."

Before they could do anything else, the Hokage appeared next to them in a puff of smoke with a tall blonde man standing next to him. "Ah glad I found you three, I need to borrow Naruto-kun for a moment." Sarutobi said after he appeared.

Naruto stood up and asked, "What do you need me for Oji-san?"

Sarutobi smiled at Naruto and gestured to the man next to him who was trying to stifle a laugh as to what Naruto called the Hokage as he said, "I just need you to follow Inochi-san here for a quick examination and then you can go back to your training."

"Alright Oji-san. Where to Inochi-san?" Naruto asked.

"Just follow me over here a ways and we can get started" Inochi said and started walking away towards the tree line.

Once they were past the tree line Inochi turned to Naruto and said, "Alright Naruto-kun, I need you to sit down like you were before so I can do this."

Naruto nodded and sat back down like he was before and asked, "So what is it you have to do?"

Inochi sat down across from him and said, "It's just a quick mental examination. It should only take a few moments."

Inochi then did a few hands seals and put his hand on Naruto's head saying, "Dokushin no jutsu!" (Mind reading jutsu.)

Inochi started to go through Naruto's mind to see if he was suppressing his memories and then hit a block. Confused he started probing at the block in his way and a red glow started to pulse around him before a vision of the Kyuubi appeared and forced him out of Naruto's mind. From the sudden expulsion from Naruto's mind they both collapsed and clutched their heads as a headache set in. Inochi groaned and thought, 'That was unexpected, it seems as though the Kyuubi is guarding Naruto-kun's mind.'

Once Inochi stood up, Naruto looked at him and asked, "Was it supposed to hurt that much?"

"No it wasn't Naruto-kun and for that I am sorry but, I found what I needed to know, I must report this to Hokage-Sama and you can go back to your training." Inochi replied.

Naruto nodded and headed back to the group with Inochi behind him. When they got back Inochi stood next to the Hokage and whispered, "Hokage-Sama, I couldn't even enter his mind fully, before I even got to his memories an image of the Kyuubi appeared and forced me back to my own mind."

Sarutobi frowned and thought, 'It must be the chakra that stayed with the seal. For some reason it protects Naruto's mind, while not a bad thing, it just stops us from learning what we need.' He then said, "No matter, we'll just have to wait and see if anything happens, thank you for examining him for me Inochi-san."

Inochi bowed and said, "By your leave Hokage-Sama." When the Hokage nodded Inochi disappeared in a puff of smoke.

Sarutobi turned to Naruto and said, "Thank you for allowing us to examine you Naruto-kun, but I need to get back to my office before the paperwork starts to build up even more then it probably has already."

Naruto walked over to his grandfather figure and hugged him as he said, "Come and visit soon Oji-san."

Sarutobi laughed and hugged Naruto back before he said, "Of course Naruto-kun when I have the chance I'll come visit you." And with that he disappeared in a puff of smoke back to the Hokage tower.

Once the Hokage and Inochi left Naruto turned back to Kanari and asked, "Alright what's next?"

Kanari laughed at his enthusiasm and pulled out some rope from her back and tied it around Naruto with some rocks attached to it before she said, "Well; now you're going to be doing Physical training by climbing the rock out cropping with these rocks attached to you among other things."

Naruto groaned and said, "For how long?"

"The next two years until you start the academy."

Two Years Later:

Naruto collapsed on the ground outside the house they all shared and gave a tired groan, he had just finished his final lap around the village and was exhausted from the numerous laps he had ran. 'Ugh, I hurt it in so many different places from today's training. I really hate Kanari-chan and Tenshi-chan right now.'

Kanari and Tenshi just came to the house and saw Naruto sprawled out over the ground and both laughed with Kanari saying, "Oh come on Naruto-kun, it couldn't have been that bad, we didn't throw to many kunai at you or set off to many traps as you ran around the village."

Naruto gave them a tired death glare and said, "You threw at least 500 kunai and set off about 50 different traps while you made me run around the village all day."

They both giggled at him before Tenshi said, "Well hurry up and get inside Naruto-kun; I'm making my special dinner for you since Kakashi probably won't be back in until really late as he has been for the last year."

Naruto groaned as he pushed himself up and said, "Speaking of that, do either of you know why he's always hours late to anything now? He's been doing it for a little over a year."

Both girls shook their heads and Kanari said, "No idea really, just as long he isn't doing anything perverted I don't really care."

Both Kanari and Tenshi have begun to hate Kakashi's personal literature that he read in any spare moment he had and always destroyed his books when they found them. The three of them walked in the house with Tenshi heading to the kitchen and both Kanari and Naruto sat down at the table. Well Naruto more of plopped down at the table and Kanari sat down gracefully. Kanari looked over to Naruto and asked, "So are you looking forward to your first day at the academy?"

Naruto perked up and said, "Oh yeah, I am definitely looking forward to it since you said once I started you would start teaching me more about chakra and not just physical work."

Kanari sighed and said, "You know the only reason why you didn't learn anything else was because there would have been no point to learning anything else if you had a weak body right?"

Naruto nodded and said, "I know, but it's still no fun to just do the same thing over and over."

For the last two years Naruto had been forced to do nothing but physical exercises in a wide verity. Naruto may have been only seven years old but he was already as strong as a regular genin; he could take on most of the genin in the village in a pure strength match but even the weakest chunin could over power him. Kanari rolled her eyes and said, "But you did more than just one thing with your training Naruto-kun."

"I know but it's really all the same to me Kanari-chan." Naruto said as he put his head down on the table.

Around ten minutes later Tenshi came in with two bowls in her hands and set them down in front of Naruto and Kanari and said, "Eat up Naruto-kun you're going to want to get to bed soon so you can get a good night's sleep for the academy tomorrow." And she went back for her bowl.

After a quick, "Itadakimasu." Naruto began to eat his dinner which was homemade ramen; all the noodles were made from scratch and the broth was made from the juices that were leftover from the pork as it was cooked. Once he finished he said, "Good night Kana-chan, Shi-chan."

Both girls smiled at Naruto's nicknames that he gave them and replied, "Good night Naru-kun."

Naruto grumbled about how Ayame gave away the nickname she used for him to the two of them and headed to his room for a good night's rest.

Next Morning:

Naruto woke up to his alarm going off at 6:30 as usual and got out of bed doing his normal morning rituals before heading downstairs and looked in surprise as he saw Kakashi there in a different outfit than normal reading his ever present Ichia Ichia book. He walked over to his older brother and asked, "What's with the different clothes aniki?"

Kakashi looked up from his book and responded, "I'm no longer in ANBU; I'm now just a regular jounin."

"How come?" Naruto asked as he pulled up a chair.

"Hokage-Sama wants me to start looking into taking a Genin squad on this year and so he wants me to be a standard jounin so I can meet all the others." Kakashi said to him.

"Oh, well I guess that makes sense." Naruto said.

They sat in silence for a few more minutes until the girls came down from their rooms with each of them saying, "Good morning Naruto-kun, Kakashi."

"Good morning Kanari-chan, Tenshi-chan." Naruto said back while Kakashi merely nodded in greeting.

The two girls sat down at the remaining spots at the table and looked at Kakashi expectantly. Kakashi sighed at the hidden message and closed his book and headed for the kitchen to make breakfast. Deciding on a simple breakfast of rice and eggs Kakashi started cooking for the others. Naruto then asked, "So Kana-chan, Shi-chan, are you both still going to the academy with me?"

Kanari smiled and said, "Of course, it'd be too boring here with us being here on our own, plus someone has to keep you in line."

Naruto rubbed the back of his head nervously and asked, "Whatever do you mean by that Kana-chan."

Kanari just rolled her eyes and said, "You know what I mean, if someone doesn't keep you in line you'll go around pranking anyone who annoys you."

Tenshi giggled as Naruto scratched the back of his head and said, "You know me too well Kana-chan."

A few minutes later Kakashi came in with breakfast and they all ate in silence. When they were all finished it was just after 7 a.m. and Kakashi said, "Alright you three, let's get you all to the academy."

"You're coming with us Kaka-nii?" Naruto asked hopefully.

Kakashi gave his trademark eye smile and rubbed the top of Naruto's head as he said, "Of course otouto, how could I not see you off on your first day?"

Naruto gave his foxy grin and grabbed Kakashi's hand and pulled him along as he ran out of the house yelling, "Then what are you waiting for? LET'S GO!"

Kanari and Tenshi just looked at each other before bursting into laughter and followed them to the academy for their first day.

Alright that's this chapter done, next one is going to be introductions for the other characters only really before a time skip to the end of the academy with some explanations for Naruto's training with Kanari and Yugao. Please review.
