We're All Broken Inside
Ch. 1
I never have or will own Naruto
Second Chapter, also technically the first, but I don't care! I now know why it takes alot of time for updates, it's hard to write, and it takes time (queue Chuck Shurley pic). Also, updates will come out slow as I am starting summer camps and etc, so don't get your hopes up.
A five year old Naruto stared blankly at the ceiling, trying to do something that will distract him from it. It was his "parents" training his "sister", and he could hear their cries of encouragment and advice that he would love to hear, at least if it was directed to him. He has been rejected in his want to train with his sister, as she "needed" it more. His parents has been more than recalcitrant in training him, so he has taken to doing mundane things to take up his time, such as what he is doing now. Suddenly, he had an idea. He would train himself! He would show his parents what they have been missing out on and why they should train him.
His childish mind didn't comprehend the finer details of that plan, such as, what would he in train in, how would he train, and where. Details aside, he set out to a random training ground with a few kunai and determination.
As he arrived at a training ground, and immediently noticed how it was empty. Amazed by his great luck he set out on his quest to better himself. What he didn't know was that the training ground was almost exclusivly used by the Uchihas. Not thirty minutes later two faces appeared from the trail Naruto came from, four striking black eyes showing from their faces.
"Why are you here?" A voice rang out and in the process, making Naruto flinch
"I'm training, what are you doing here?" Naruto responded as he turned to the voice. What Naruto saw when he turned around was a boy and a girl. The girl looked around his age and the boy looked many years older. They both were sharing hair and eye color, and both were staring Naruto down. The boy started talking,
"We were.." The boy put emphasis on were, "... going to train here, but we found you."
"Well, my name is Naruto Namikaze, what's your's?"
Again the boy among the couple started talking, "I'm Itachi Uchiha, and this is my little sister, Satsuki."
Naruto thought for a second, 'So that is why this training ground is empty, it is used by the Uchihas. Well, maybe I can get help from them for training.'
After this encounter, the trio that was the Uchihas and the Namikaze became good friends, meeting up in that same training ground. Itachi helped Naruto begin on his path to They did this almost everyday, until Itachi Uchiha started going on more and more missions for the village, eventually to the point where they saw him rarely at the training ground. That did not mean he totally abandoned them in their progression through the ninja arts, he left them scrolls and exercises to keep them busy.
Scene Break(time skip)
It was October 10th, and it was Naruto's seventh birthday, but it was not going as well as he had hoped. His day started with his parents and sister forgetting to wake him up to greet the other clans, and he had to track them down. Naruto thought,
'So it started with refusing to train me, and it has evolved to just forgetting me in general.' Naruto sighed, sad he can't be as unforgettable aso, for example, his sister.
After having a meet and greet with all the other clans they relaxed at their house and waited for a large birthday bash that was planned by their parents.
Middle of party
Most children would be excited at their birthday party, the sounds, smells, and presents, not Naruto. He couldn't play with the other kids as they all gravitated towards Michiko as a result of her abundant amounts of energy, so he couldn't do that. He couldn't talk to the adults as they didn't take him seriously. Lastly, he couldn't fret over his presents as the people at the party forgot to give him any, or just didn't bother. The only present he had there was a half-assed one from his parents, which probaly was just a hand-me-down book Michiko probaly attempted to read, but failed.
End of party
As th party was winding down, Kushina and Minato stepped to the front of the room and called for attention. Kushina started,
"Thank you all for coming to Naruto's and Michiko's party, now before they open their presents, we have something to announce."
A few murmurs rang around the room, wondering what was to be announced.
"We're having a baby."
Cries of joy and congratulations came from almost every single person in the room. Well, all except for Naruto, who chose to be less than vocal about his joy. After the noise has passed, Michiko started opening her presents.
Despite being happy about the news, Naruto was staring apathetically towards Michiko as she opened her presents, but on the inside he was fuming and angry.
'Pathetic. Becoming jealous over simple trinkets that your sister was recieving.' A voice rang out in the back of Naruto's mind, but he ignored it. All of a sudden, a blast of smoke was created in the place where Michiko was opening presents. The ninja in the room prepared for a fight. Naruto wondered, 'Will I have to show off my training to my peers this soon?'
Flashback
Itachi looked at Naruto and Satsuki with pride, as their skills have improved much faster than he anticipated, which he was proud of. Today, he would improve their Ninjutsu skills, having focused on Taijutsu and chakra control before. He looked towards them and said,
"Today, we will be finding out your elements."
Naruto looked excited, as well did Satsuki. Naruto thought that if he had alot of cool elements, maybe people would take more notice of him. Satsuki, though she knew one of her elements was fire due to being taught the Fireball jutus, was still excited. He took two pieces of paper out of his pocket and handed it to them.
"This is chakra paper. It conducts chakra so well that it shows the elements of the user."
Each of the two took a piece of paper, and Naruto said,
"Satsuki, you can go first-" Satsuki thought this was sweet until, "-leave the best for last." Satsuki shoved her elbow into Naruto's stomach and proceeded to pump chakra into the paper.
Satsuki's paper turned into dirt then, combusted into a blue inferno, making her think she did something wrong.
"Itachi, did I do something wrong? Did I pump too much chakra in?
Itachi responded, "No, you just have a very strong fire aspect and a minor earth one, congratulations!
Naruto also congratulated her by patting her on the back, but the moment was short-lived. Satsuki turned beat red from Naruto touching her, and to get him to stop she, once again, threw an elbow into poor Naruto's stomach, all the while screaming, "Don't touch me!
Once Naruto got back on his feet and Satsuki calmed down, Naruto putchakra into his piece. The paper was cut into pieces almost instantly. Naruto was disapointed that he only had one element, but then something strange happened. The paper started floating mid-air and collapsed in on itself.
"Woah." Naruto said in wonder.
End Flashback
The smoke eventually cleared, and inside the smoke was none other than Jiraiya, the Toad Sannin. Michiko asked Jiraiya,
"Do you have a present for me Hentai Sannin(pervert Sannin)?"
Jiraiya responded, "Oh yes, it's the Toad Summoning Scroll!"
People around the room look flabbergasted that someone as young as Michiko would be getting a Summoning Contract. They gave her happy smiles and thumbs up, wishing her well. All the while, Naruto was getting increasingly mad, and got up from his chair and stormed out of the room; sadly, the only person to notice was Michiko, who said her brother's name, but it was lost amongst the loud clammor of the room.
