A/N sorry this chapter is a little shorter but I think it turned out alright

Thanks to all who reviewed


Naruto walked down a deserted ally way as the rain poured heavily on him soaking his raged cloths. He sat against the side of a building pulling the lid off a tin trashcan to offer some relief from the rain. He soon heard the splash of many footsteps coming towards him he looked down the ally to see.

Three boys each about 14 or 15 years old all of them still Genin leveled ninja they made their way down the ally.

Naruto could feel his heartbeat painfully against his chest as it threatened to jump out of his chest as they drew closer.

"Come out Naruto, we just want to play" said one of the boys in an unconvincing sweet tone.

They made their way threw the ally until they saw Naruto sitting beside the trash cans, using the lid off of one as an umbrella.

One of them was wearing a standard ninja outfit that would be worn by a Jounin one in the middle was wearing a large overcoat hiding his face, his eyes were the brightest blue that Naruto had ever seen. The third was wearing a pair of black pants with a red shirt his eyes were paste white.

"Well boys what do yah say we end the existence of this demon" asked the one wearing the overcoat.

The other to nodded in agreement they then started to do different sets of hand signs

"Hey don't I get a say in this" said a boy wearing blue pants with a white shirt his eyes were brown wile his skin was pale white, his hair was platinum blond a blue head band covered his forehead.

"Stay out of this Takato" said the Hyuga

"Sorry but Naruto is my friend and I'm not about to let you hurt one hair on his head" said Takato jumping off the roof into the ally way.

The three smiled the each finished their Jutsu just as he touched the ground he was instantly killed all that was left was a bloody corpse.

The boys laughed as they looked at the now shaking Naruto

"We'll just say that you attacked him and that we killed you for your crime" said the one in the standard Jounin outfit.

Naruto looked at the body then back to the boy then to the body again then a maniacal laugh escaped his lips.


"So are we still playing?" asked Naruto

The boys looked at one another with amused grins on their faces

"Yeah we're still playing" said the Hyuga.

Naruto's face curved into a smile

"Good that means it's my turn" he said in a dark tone


The smiles on there faces faded away as a red glow surrounded Naruto.

"You killed him now I kill you" said Naruto maniacally then he attacked them it was like he blacked out, and when he came two there wasn't a visible body part from any of the boys left.


Naruto looked down at himself to see he was drentched in blood he then laughed like a mad man he really was mad.

"I have to kill again" he said in amusement as he walked away from the scene then he was knocked unconscious.

***

Naruto awoke with a smile on his face

'My favorite dream' he thought as got up and walked to his bedroom to take a shower

Once he was out of the shower and dressed in his black pants and t-shirt he decided to leave his jacket on the hanger today

He walked to the training ground that Kakashi had instructed them to be at he found that he was the first one there.

He walked over to one of the three poles that stuck out of the ground and leaned against it within seconds he had nodded off to sleep.

He was awakened by the sound of a barking dog he looked to see Akamaru and Kiba coming towards him.

He suddenly felt something heavy on his chest he looked down to see Hinata had fallen asleep beside him.

'A little bold for her' he thought as he grabbed the back of her coat and lifted her easily off of him then dropped her on her side.

The shock caused her to wake up to see Naruto glaring at her

"I've already warned you once Hyuga now its time to act" said Naruto drawing a kunai.

He walked towards Hinata then grabbed her arm she tried with all her might to withdraw it only to watch as Naruto slashed deeply into her forearm.

Then he channeled the red chakra of the Kyuubi into her open wound she left out a deafening scream as the wound healed itself.

Once the wound was sealed the Kyuubi's chakra shot out of her skin causing her to feel pain beyond measure.

Naruto laughed wile he did this, Hinata's cries were like a sweet symphony to his ears as the last of the chakra finally left her arm leaving it looking as if it hadn't been touched.

"That was just a taste of what will happen if you cross me if you attack me only death awaits" said Naruto his eyes glowed fiercely at her tear stained face.

Hinata stared at him in horror

'He's a monster' she thought then an image of a dead boy flashed in her mind.

'What was that?' she thought as more images poured into her head until they became a memory to her.

'Naruto' she thought as the answer to his madness made itself clear to her

Kiba came running up the slow

"What's wrong Hinata what happened" he asked looking around.

"I-I-I j-j-just had a bad dream" she stuttered

Naruto looked at her with a shocked expression

'Her too' he thought.

Suddenly a puff of smoke announced the arrival of Kakashi sensei

"Looks like I'm only a little late this time" he said.

They all seemed to have ignored his comment; he then pulled out two bells

"Your training today will be to remove these two bells from my possession, but there's a catch if can't pass this test then you'll all be sent back to the academy.

But if two of you get the bells then one of you will be tied to this tree and watch wile the rest of us eat lunch or all three of you will be tied and I'll enjoy my lunch right in front of you" said Kakashi placing the bells on his belt loop.

"Ready and GO!" shouted Kakashi as everyone then disappeared from sight

"Oh yeah you've got to come at me with the means to kill" said Kakashi.

'Okay Hinata is hiding in a tree, Kiba in the bush below, but where is Naruto?" thought Kakashi.

Naruto smirked as he stared at his prey he then began to perform a set of hand signs once completed the area behind Kakashi seemed to shimmer slightly.

He then crept over to Kiba

"Alright dog breath listen up I need you to attack Kakashi" said Naruto.

"And why should I listen to a dope like you?" asked Kiba

"Because I've got a trap set for Kakashi that will land us the bells" said Naruto.

"What about Hinata?" asked Kiba

"What about her if she's faster than either of us she can get her own" said Naruto.

"I like the way you think Uzumaki" said Kiba as he and Akamaru ran at Kakashi attacking in the direction Naruto had told him he'd set the trap.

Naruto then snuck over to Hinata

"Hinata I want you to use your Byakugan and tell me exactly where Kakashi is hiding after Kiba attacks" said Naruto.

Hinata nodded then activated her Byakugan the pupiless eyes seemed to focus somewhat and the veins in her temples bulged threw the side of her head.

She could see Kakashi very clearly then she saw Kiba attack Kakashi he then turned into a log then reappeared within a chakra filled area.

"He's in an area overloaded with charka" said Hinata

Naruto smirked as he preformed one final hand sign

"Wind Style: Vacuum Vortex Jutsu" said Naruto.

Hinata watched as the chakra around Kakashi swirled causing the air inside it to be slowly sucked out.

Naruto then walked towards Kakashi with Hinata behind him

He had a smirk on his face as he stared down his prey the bells still tied to his belt loop jingled merely.

"The way I see it Kakashi sensei you've got exactly thirty seconds to hand over those bells before all the air inside that vortex is sucked out. At which point we will get them anyway because I have no intention of releasing this Jutsu otherwise" said Naruto with a maniacal smirk on his face.

Kakashi could feel the air around him become thick and heavy not wishing to explode do to decompression he threw the bells threw the vortex there was a slight pop as they hit the air. Then fell threw it Naruto then retrieved the bells Kakashi nodded to him inclining that he should release the Jutsu.

To his horror Naruto just smirked

"Naruto what are you doing release the Jutsu we've got the bells" said Kiba.

Naruto continued to smirk as Kakashi fell to his knees Naruto could hear him gasping desperately for air as it was slowly sucked out of the vortex.

"Only ten seconds left Kakashi sensei any last words?" asked Naruto

"Naruto stop it, what are you doing?" yelled Kiba

"He said we had to come at him with the intent to kill well I intend to kill him" said Naruto as looked at the vortex.

"Only five seconds left" he said

"Naruto please let him go!" said Hinata desperation was clear in her voice.

Naruto laughed again then turned to Hinata she watched as he didn't make a move to release the Jutsu.

She could see Kakashi finally lose consciousness then he turned into a log and it exploded within the vortex.

Naruto then dispelled the Jutsu there was a large gush of air as it re-pressurized Kakashi then came out from the woods.

"Well done Naruto but how did you know that wasn't me?" asked Kakashi

Naruto turned to him

"I didn't" he said coldly with a sad look on his face leaving Kakashi stunned.

"Y-y-you r-r-really int-t-t-ended t-t-t" Kakashi stuttered

"To kill you yeah that was the plan and by the way, Wind Style: Vortex Return" said Naruto as the wind picked up around Kakashi trapping him within the same vortex as.

His substitute

"Now give me the real bells" said Naruto Kakashi acted without hesitation and handed him the two bells.

"Okay Naruto this is the real me now let me out" said Kakashi

"Nah I think I'll let you die after all you did say "with the intent to kill"" said Naruto coldly as he handed Kiba one of the real bells then gave Hinata the other.

"N-N-Naruto, w-w-w-w-h-h-h-y?" asked Hinata

"Because I owed you" said Naruto as he then turned to Kakashi

"Right now I'd recon you've got about twenty seconds of air left so you better answer quickly" he said.

"What is it" gasped Kakashi

"Train these two to become as strong as a Hokage" said Naruto

"I-I-p-p-promise" he gasped

Naruto the released the Jutsu allowing the air to quickly flood both the area and Kakashi's lungs he gulped in the air gratefully.

"Fell privileged you were going to be my kill for today, but Hinata and Kiba need a teacher" said Naruto walking away.

"And just where do you think you're going?" asked Kakashi

"Back to the academy unless you really wish to die" said Naruto as a red chakra swirled around his body like a long red snake.

"No, that's not it Naruto um last time I checked you are still a member of this team" said Kakashi.

"Oh and how do you figure?" asked Naruto with a mocked confused look on his face all though he pretty much guess from the word "go" what the test was about.

"It was a test to see how well you preformed as a team and you all passed" said Kakashi with a smile that seamed to show threw his mask.

"That's great now I won't have any reason to kill you thanks for running my day" said Naruto walking away grumpily.

Kakashi's only visible eye was now as large as a dinner plate not because of what Naruto said but because his mask had just fallen off his face.

Revealing a face that caused Hinata to have hearts in her eyes

"If you two reveal what you saw you'll go straight to the academy" said Kakashi threateningly.

"Sure sensei" said Kiba evilly wishing with all his might that he'd had a camera

Naruto then turned to the three as he was now a good distance away a tear rolled down his cheek he finally had

"Friends"
