Disclaimer: I don't really know why ppl insist on doing these things since this is a fanfiction website but oh well I'll follow the trend. None of the following works other than the story line or property of myself, all characters belong to their original creator Masashi Kishimoto.

Author Notes: Yeah…. alright I guess the best place to start would be with the fact not updating started when I was sick and then moved into lack of inspiration and then continued into me just plain losing interest. But I digress. It's a break for me and so I'll be working on the story more often now (hopefully). Now onto the story.

Naruto no Satetsu

Chapter 3: Revelations

10 Years Pass

Naruto awoke in a daze. His vision was swimming before him leaving everything around him in haze of blurs and mixed colors. 'Where am I?' he wondered as consciousness began to take hold over his sleep addled brain. As the awareness began to come back to him he notices he was lying on a couch, the couch in the Sandaime's office. "Where's Jiji?" he wondered out loud to himself slowly sitting up, noticing the Hokage wasn't in the room. A smile crept across his face.

'Well I don't think he'll mind if I help myself to some of his candy.'

-Short flashback-

"Here you are Naruto," an elderly man in white robes said reaching into a drawer in his desk and pulling out a piece of candy and handing it to the young six year old in front of him. The young boy, Naruto, smiled wide at the present of candy.

"Thanks jiji!" he said eagerly putting the treat in his mouth.

-Flashback end-

"Now where does he keep it?" Naruto wondered out loud to himself as he began to dig into the drawers of the Hokage's desk. Finding more and more documents but no candy began to frustrate the ninja in training. As he reached the very bottom drawer he again didn't see any candy but did see a little slip of paper sticking out of one of the folders with his name on it. Like most human beings this made him curious and so he picked up the folder and flipped it open. Reading inside is what shocked him. Information about him and every one of the beating done to him and everyone who was involved, it even contained maps on where he could or would go when the chase began. The file folder slipped from his fingers as his body began to tremble. Now Naruto was not seen as a genius in terms of the grades he got at the Academy, but the Hokage and anyone who mattered knew he was beyond smart. And seeing this truly helped the pieces fall into place.

Theatrical Moment

Camera pans to open pages in the manila. A picture of Naruto is shown with three pictures below his with captions showing their significance; father, mother, sister.

Scripts on the opposite side in the Sandaime's handwriting detailing several things but the most prominent is the sectioned off area with names of the clan heads and what is apparently a plan involving all of the misfortune that has followed Naruto, the training he has been giving him, and even the brainwashing going on the whole time. (I finished the Cod: Black Ops campaign and couldn't resist including brainwashing)

Over

Naruto sprinted out of the room toward the council chambers where he knew the Hokage had to be. As he approached he noticed a strange lack of ANBU guard s at the doors. Pressing his ear against the door he began to pick up what was being said.

"….I realize this and I have been very lenient this whole time about it all but last night it was almost taken to far. For once I agreed with Danzo that we need something to protect the village and that became Naruto. I did everything I could to help this along: I lied and deceived the boys mother, telling her he died to make her leave, I allowed the beatings to happen to help move along the dependence to me and those among I let be part of it, I put up the whole façade to protect this village and last night it was nearly thrown away because if he hadn't saved himself he would have died," the Sandaime said addressing the gathered council. Naruto heard no more as he sprinted away towards the apartment building he called home. When he got there he began packing.

1 hour later

Naruto lifted the small pack onto his back as he began to set out for the broken section of the wall hidden in the red-light district. Loaded with scrolls for food, weapons, and supplies and the strange black substance that would float inside his clothes, he made his way out of the village and into the forest outside on the south-west side. Continuing in that direction he began to dwell in his thoughts.

Skip to the Suna-River border (that's the right one right? I know that wind is south west from fire and there's that small area between them)

Naruto has taken a small rest at the Suna river border and was preparing to continue when several people stepped into the clearing. He immediately noticed each was armed and had a chakra level above that of average mercenary ninja.

'Better play it safe' "What can I help you with?" he asked trying to be civil.

The one who appeared to be the smartest stepped forward, swinging a battle chain around him, "We are going to take everything you have little boy," he said sizing the boy up, he knew this was no average little kid seeing the way he held himself and sensing the chakra that was being restrained. But just because he could realize this doesn't mean he'll use the knowledge to help his men fight.

Giving a signal the several of the men charged forward and took the shots at the kid who simple jumped up into the air sent a strange black substance at them splitting into several parts and piercing them through the heads. 'Hmmm, a bloodline most useful and maybe even sellable to some of the villages," the leader thought observing the 'fight'. Now Naruto was not used to using the Iron Sand at will and it took a great deal of strain for him to focus to the point that his chakra would direct it correctly. He knew that he would need a different way of this situation or he would die.

"Well enough games," said the mercenary leader, disappearing from view and reappearing in front of Naruto with the chain raised to strike downward.

Time seemed to slow down for Naruto as he could suddenly see every detail of the chain and the man about to kill him. His heart began to race faster and faster he realized that the sand would be nowhere near fast enough to react to this and began to accept the fact he was dying. But as soon at that feeling came he was overwhelmed with a fire in his body and mind, screaming for him to fight for his life, show this man that he would not fall to him. The world sped up as something white exploded outward from Naruto's body, catching the chair as it was about to strike and spearing outwards in all directions, catching the chain wielder off guard and cutting through the flesh of lower body. But it didn't stop there the white substance began to spear upwards out of the ground encompassing the entire clearing and all the mercenaries standing at the edge were caught and slaughtered in the white forest. Floating through it all was little grains of iron. At the epicenter Naruto stood stock still until he slowly raised his hands to his face to see it had grown from the palms of his hands in large spikes. Using his fingers to feel it he was surprised to find it was very smooth. He was entranced by it until his body caught up with him and it all began to crumble as the boy himself fell to the ground dancing on the edge of consciousness. He saw three shadows in his field of vision before he was taken into the sweet embrace of darkness.

Love it? Hate it? Let me know and I'll be trying to update regularly from now on. I realize that it seems somewhat rushed right now but I really couldn't some what with a really good introduction that would bring the elements in that I needed to play with so please forgive me for that. Again sorry and remember to let me know what you think. :)
