Chapter 1: fate
Naruto slowly opens his eyes. At first, he's slightly blind by light in the room, but as he gets used to it, he looks around the room. His body was in sheer pain, but it was nothing new to him.
Above him are oh-so-familiar roof tiles in a hospital room. He sees that he's on a hospital bed. On his right is a window with a clear view of the outside world. Naruto looks to his left. A man wearing an ANBU wolf mask sits nearby Naruto, reading a magazine.
The man looks up, so see Naruto staring at him. "Well, hello Naruto-san." the man says. Naruto has fear in his eyes. "Don't worry, I'm friendly." he says, as he pulls his mask off. "My name is Itatchi Uchiha."
Naruto opens his mouth to respond, but finds no sound coming out. Itatchi looks a little sad. "Sorry, I couldn't find you earlier. By the time I got there, they had already cut your throat. Your voice will back back, but not entirely. Even with your amazing healing rate, it will take some time."
Naruto looks sad. Itatchi tries to brighten his mood. "C'mon Naruto-san, as a way to try to make up for me being late, I'll treat you to ramen." Naruto's eyes shine. He nods his head, and quickly tries to get out of bed. "Whoa, there cowboy. Remember you got hurt badly. Take it one step at a time, Ichiruka's Ramen stand isn't moving any time soon." Naruto nodded, and put his feet down on the ground, making sure they worked. He stood, and then almost fell to the ground. Itatchi caught him in time.
When Naruto was confident he wouldn't fall, he nodded to the man once more, and Itatchi let Naruto go. Naruto steadied himself, and then walked towards the door. "What about your little friend?" Itatchi asks. Naruto turned around confused. Itatchi is pointing to a small red lump on the bed. Naruto walks over the bed again, and touches the fur ball. The fur balls jumps, and it turns out to be Kina. Kina calms herself down, and hops onto Naruto's shoulder. She licks his cheek once, and the wraps her tail around his neck for support. Naruto turns around and smiles at Itatchi.
"Why, hello there little friend. Are you keeping Naruto safe?" Itatchi asks. In response Kina yips, and Itatchi laughs. "Well, Come on then." Itatchi hands Naruto his stuff. Naruto grabs his cape that has a hood, to cover up Naruto's tail and ears. Naruto has his tail wrap around his waist, which, with his grey clothes, make it almost invisible. Naruto gently grabs Kina and holds her in his arms, and covers up his body with his cape. His cape is a light tint of blue. Like this, noone can see any of his skin, and Kina is hidden.
"Nice disguise, Naruto-san." Itatchi puts his wolf mask back on. "Shall we go?" Naruto nods, a wide smile on his face.
Both Itatchi and Naruto walk up to the receptionist desk. "Patient code D-6574 will be checking out." The nurse behind the counter nods, and they walk out of the hospital.
A ten minute walk later, they find themselves at Ichiruka's.
"Well, hello there ANBU-san. Oh, well, if it isn't my number one customer, Naruto!" The old guy behind the counter says.
A young women yells from the kitchen, "Naruto!" she runs out of the kitchen. "Well, hello there big guy. Want to eat some more ramen?" Naruto nods. "Well, what would you like?"
Naruto goes to open his mouth, then shuts it. He looks down sad. "What's wrong buddy?" Says the man.
Wolf speaks up, "He was attacked three nights ago. They harmed his vocal chords, so he is unable to speak at the moment."
Ayame, the young women, puts on a sad face. "Oh, that's sad. Well, here I got an idea!" She held out a menu, "Point to the one you want, and then hold up a number telling me how many."
Naruto pointed to beef ramen, and then held up 7 fingers. "That's a tall order, but I'll do it just for you."
"And what would you like wolf-san." Ichiruka asked.
"Two shrimp ramen, if you can." wolf said in a happy tone.
"Can do," Ayame said.
Itatchi removed his mask, and placed it in his cloak. Naruto pushed the hood on his cloak back. Revealing his ears. Kina jumped out of his arms, and onto the counter.
"Well, who's this cute little fella." the old man said.
"I don't know, the fox was with Naruto in the hospital. I just assumed it was his pet." Itatchi responds. As a way of saying yes, Kina let out a high pitched yip.
"I wonder what his name is." the old man said. Naruto held up his hand.
"What is it Naruto?" Ichiruka asks.
Naruto points at Kina and then shakes his head. "I can lip read Naruto," Itatchi says.
Naruto looks at him, then mouths something. "The fox is a girl?" He asks. Naruto nods his head. "What's her name?".... "Lina?".."Lona?".."Kina? Oh Kina, eh?" Naruto nods his head.
Ayame comes back out with 3 bowls. "I have your firsts right here!" she says. She places the bowls done, and only then she sees Kina.
Wait for it....
"OHMYGODCUTE!" And lifts up Kina and huggles her. "What's her name?"
"How can you tell it's a girl?" the old man asks.
"you silly, only girls can be this cute," she giggles nuzzling the fox.
"Naruto says her name is Kina." Itatchi says.
"So this is Naruto's pet?" Cue Yip from pup. Ayame giggles and places her back on the counter, "She's so cute." Ayame heads back into the kitchen. She comes back out with a plate and a small piece of meat on it. "Here ya go, little one." She places the piece of meat in front of Kina.
Kina sniffs it. "Don't worry, it isn't poisoned." Ayame says. Kina then goes into strike pose. Her tail up in the air. Paws in the ready... POUNCE! The meat is torn apart bit by bit and eaten.
"Soooo cute!" Ayame giggles. Naruto has finished his second bowl, and puts it up in the air. "Coming right up Naruto."
"I'll get it," the old man says. He grabs the bowls, and goes into the kitchen. Ayame continues to watch the fox tear the meat up. "Your just as hungry as Naruto, huh?"
10 minutes later, and a full Naruto... okay as full as Naruto can get on 7 bowls, Itatchi has just finished his second. "Naruto could consider going into pro marathon eating contests." Itatchi says. "Speaking of, what do you want to be when you grow up?" Naruto smiles, puts his hood back on, and gets up. He walks out of the shop, and stand in the street. He points at the Hokage monument. Itatchi quickly places his mask on. He walks to where Naruto is, and sees what Naruto is pointing at. "Hokage, huh?" Naruto nods. "Well, your going make make a great Hokage someday."

It was nearing nightfal when the group decided to say goodbye to each other. Itatchi placed some money on the counter and started to escort Naruto back to his apartment.
Inside the apartment, Naruto got undressed, and changed into his pajamas. "Good night Naruto," Itatchi says, and closes the door.
Naruto climbs into bed, and covers up. Kina jumps on top of him. "He seems nice, kit," she says to him. Naruto is a little surprised at first, but then nods at her. He closes his eyes, a smile on his face. Kina turns around and turns into a red furball sleeping on his chest.
Nearby, Outside Naruto's window, Two girls are watching Naruto.
A purple haired girl, wearing a brow trench coat, and shinobi shorts with a fishnet skin cover underneath it all says to the girl on her right, "Naruto's got a new cute little friend."
The Brown haired girl on her right, wearing a brown shirt, and has two fang like marks on her cheeks. She also has on a pair of light tan pants. "She is cute."
"How can you tell it's a girl?" Purple asks.
"You silly, only a girl can be that cute." Brown giggles.
XXXXXXX
Naruto wakes up to a morning sun. He feels a light weight on his chest. He sees Kina sleeping soundly curled up into a small furball. He pets Kina softly, and she wakes up slowly. Naruto was surprised to find out that foxes can purr in a fashion of sort. "That feels good, Naruto." Naruto giggles, and pick her off of him, must to her disappointment. Naruto got up, and went through his morning routine.
"Wow, this place is quite a mess." Naruto just shrugs. "Well, first thing's first. I'm going to start training you Naruto." Naruto almost dropped his tooth brush. "But first, you have to clean this messy apartment up."
Naruto got an excited look on his face, and hurried up. It took him an entire hour, but the apartment was clean...er... and passed the fox's requirement. "Okay Naruto, get dressed." He nods hurriedly, and gets into his usual grey outfit. He grabs the scroll that the gods told him was left under his mattress.
"Follow me," Kina says, and Naruto hurries out the door.
30 minutes of dodging people and society, sneaking out the east gate, and running to a secret hideout the Naruto made last year. "Okay kit," Kina starts, "I'm going to be tough on you when I train you. The workout I make will not be easy, but it's the best way to train you. You understand?"
Naruto nods. "Good."
Because the author is lazy, he's just gonna go over in light detail of Naruto's training for the next 3 years. Naruto was trained to the point where he would drop to the ground, and then he was told to get up and keep going. About a year into the training, Kina put a gravity seal on Naruto's back. The seal was in the very scroll that Kami gave him. The seal was made to make him feel a heavier, and was set to 1.3x gravity to start off. At the end of his 3rd year in training, he was at a solid 2.0x gravity. His body was taught, and almost all the baby fat was gone. She taught him how to turn the gravity seal off, and made him practice once a week without it on.
Kina didn't only train his body, but his chakra control as well. Since he had Kina's chakra in him, he could go a lot longer with it, but he didn't have near the chakra control Kina wanted him to have. It took about 6 weeks, but Naruto learned how to walk up a tree without his hands. Kina wanted to try to make Naruto walk on water, but she decided against it. He was too young to try that.
During this time, Itatchi mysteriously disappeared, leaving the boy slightly lonely. Kina had to brighten his spirits by saying that Itatchi just has some work to do, and would be back sometime soon.
She made him learn the standard academy 3. Transformation, replacement, and cloning. Naruto learned the first two in the second year of his training, but for the love of his life, he couldn't pull of a clone.
Kina made Naruto learn how to keep the genjustsu transformation on him, to make him look more normal. He also learned that he could do a full blown transformation to fox form. It was about as big as Kina's form, but he had a full silver coat with white tips on his tail and ears. Kina, who had given in to her feelings at his cuteness, pounced him.
Near near the ending of the third year, Naruto had decided to try and to enroll into the academy. Kina agreed, thinking he was ready.
"Just remember kit, I'm not gonna let up on the training even though you're in school." She says.
"I know, I know, Kina." Naruto says. Over the years, his voice had come back. Slowly, but surely. He couldn't yell, or anything that required large amounts of air, but he could talk at a normal level.
She hoped up on his shoulder. Because Naruto could hold a stable genjutsu on him, he could walk out in the open more often. No one suspected that the fox on his shoulder would be the demon. He told her to keep that a secret as much as possible. She agreed.
Naruto went up to the Hokage's office. One of the safe havens from the mobs outside. The secretary that managed people from going in and out of the office smiled warmly. She was one of the few people Naruto actually liked. In the Hokage's Office, an old man sitting behind a desk was doing paperwork.
"Ah, Naruto," The old man starts, "What can I do you for?" The Hokage asks.
"Hi Ojii-san!," Naruto returns, "I was wondering if I could attend the ninja academy this year."
The old man grins, "Sure thing. You're old enough to enter the academy this year, and I was going to ask if you wanted to join anyways."
"Thanks!" Naruto smiles.
After a few moments, The third hokage hands a piece of paper to Naruto, "Here you go Naruto. Hand this to the lady at the front desk in the ninja academy tomorrow morning. Be sure to hand it in before 9 o'clock."
"Sure thing gramps," Naruto gives one of his trade mark grins. "I'm gonna be a great ninja!" and the boy rushes out the door.
'I'm sure you will, and your father would be proud.' Sarutobi thinks. He then groaned when he looked at the stack of paper that had somehow grown when he talked with Naruto. 'How did Minato-san deal with all this paperwork?'
XXXXXX
The next morning, Naruto hands in his paper to the lady at the front desk of the academy. "Welcome...um." she looks at the paper, "Naruto Uzumaki to the ninja academy. Your class will be in room number 4. Good luck." she smiles at him. (Kinda makes ya wonder why all the secretaries are happy.... )
Naruto walked into the class. He was currently wearing the orange clothing we are all familiar with. (Author too lazy to write out description). Although that was the genjutsu placed on him. Underneath was his normal grey suit, with light blue cloak attire. His Genjutsu made him look more normal. Naruto liked the look of his whisker marks, so he decided to keep them on in the genjutsu.
Naruto took a seat in the third row, next to a boy with black hair, and black eyes. "Hello, my name is Naruto. Nice to meet ya."
Cue sasuke in emo mode. "Hrm... " Kina, who was on Naruto's shoulder, had a sweat drop on her head.
A boy who had fang marks under his eyes, and a light grey outfit walked into class. Kina hid in Naruto's coat at the site of the dog in the boy's coat.
"What's wrong girl?" Naruto asked. Then he caught a whiff of dog, and looked to the door. "So that's it, huh? What's so scary about a puppy?"
Likewise, the dog caught a whiff of fox. He barked at his master. "A fox, eh? Where?" He started sniffing. The boy with fang marks looked at Naruto. He walked up to Naruto, "Hello, you must be an animal user like me." the boy said.
Before coming to the academy, Kina said she was going to act just like a real fox around other people. That includes being scared of fox's natural predator, dogs.
"Hi, Kina here is kinda scared of dogs. My name is Naruto, what's yours?"
"My name is Kiba, and this is Akamaru." He pulled Akamaru out of his coat, and put the dog on the desk next to Naruto.
Naruto looked at Kina, "Come on girl, the dog isn't gonna kill you." Kina timidly came out of Naruto's coat, and sat on the desk in front of Akamaru.
The two sniffed each other a little, and Kina broke the ice by liking Akamaru's nose. Akamaru made a small bark, and the two started playing.
"Looks like she isn't scared anymore." Kiba said.
"Yea, she isn't scared once she gets to know ya."
"May I pet her?" he asks.
"Only if she lets you." Naruto responds.
Kiba slowly put his hand out to let Kina sniff. She sniffed once or twice, then yipped at him. He took it as a clear sign, and started petting her.
She yipped at Naruto, and Naruto said back, "Agreed."
"So, you can understand her," Kiba asked.
"Somewhat," Naruto lied. What actually happened was that Kina and Naruto share a mental connection of sorts. They can block each other. What she actually said to Naruto through thought was, 'I hate the smell of dogs.'
At that moment, Two men came into the room. "Alright class, settle down, and shut up. Welcome to the ninja academy. This is where you'll learn to be a ninja for the next four years. I will be your sensei, my name is Iruka. This man is Mizuki, my assistant. He will be helping me teach you. I will point to you, and you will tell me your name. Okay, how about you first." Iruka pointed at the boy next to Naruto.
"Hrm...." Cue sweat drop from Iruka... "Sasuke Uchiha."
And it went on from there. After everyone had said their name, Iruka went to teaching the class.
'My god, this will be a boring 4 years.' the fox thought.
'Yeap.' Naruto thought back.
XXXXXX
Professor, press the fast forward button for 4 and a half years. (Got it)
Over the next 4 and a half years, Naruto matures into a 12 year old, and continues his secret training. He manages to get up to 3.5x on his gravity seal. He learned how to be sneaky like a fox, and unfortunately, how to be a trickster like a fox. He was known around the village as the prank master.
Kina had Naruto learn how to throw kunai and shuriken. She also taught him how to fight in his fox form. She had him go to the Nara's place, and had Naruto learn Shogi. At first, he was to hyperactive to do so, but over time, he learned how to play shogi, though still nowhere near as good as any of the Nara's. He had played against Shikamaru the most, since the guy was in his class. Though Naruto always lost inside of 20 moves, he had gotten a lot better then before when he would lose in 2 or 3 moves.
His chakra control was tons better. He could not only walk up a tree without hands, he could now perform jutsu's while doing so. Near the end of the fourth year, Kina had him start learning how to walk on water. He has also been learning everything he can from the scroll that the gods gave him, but for some reason, most of it was blank. When he asked Kina about it she answered, "Kami probably put a limit to how much you can learn from it."
Now it has been 4 and a half years. Naruto has yet to learn how to walk on water, but he can go a little ways out before falling in. Kina, on the other hand, was not only in the middle of a pond, but also sleeping there, too.
"Show off," Naruto mutters losing his concentration.
Naruto, once again, falls into the water. Which wakes up Kina. "Hey, kit, that's enough for today."
"Hai," Naruto said, as he was climbing out of the water.
"Aren't the finals tomorrow?" she asked.
"Yea, and, hopefully, I can become a real ninja." He chuckles.
XXXXXX
The next day, the class is bustling. Naruto, walks in and finds a random seat.
Kina's ears twitch. 'Banshee alert.' she think to him.
After 3 seconds, a rumble, like a small earthquake, starts to shake the classroom. Two konoichi, if you can call them that, rush in through the door.
"I WAS HERE FIRST!" said the pink haired one named Sakura.
"NO, I WAS!" yelled back a blonde girl named Ino.
Naruto hold his hands above his head. To everyone else, this would look odd, but he was holding down his ears. Kina doing the same with her paws.
All of a sudden, Naruto got a shiver down his spine.
"HEY! IDIOT, WHO SAID YOU COULD SIT NEXT TO SASUKE!" the pink banshee yells. Naruto looks to his left, and sure enough Sasuke was sitting there in his trademarked pose.
Naruto freezes. The last time he sat near Sasuke, he got mauled by fan girls. He quickly moved to a seat in the back. When he took his seat, he noticed that the Hyuuga heiress, Hinata, was sitting next to him. She always had a red face near him. He guessed she was only having a constant fever. "Hello," he said to her.
"H-hello, N-n-Naruto." she said. Hinata blushed a little more.
'If she gets any redder, she'll pass out.' Kina thought. She jumped off of Naruto's shoulder and moved closer to the heiress. 'Ah hah.' she thinks.
'Find something out?' Naruto asks.
'Yeap, but I'm keeping it a secret for now.'
'huh?'
Hinata sees that Kina had gotten close to her, and Hinata gingerly pets her. The blush slowly fades from her face. Just as her face turns normal, her face then gets even redder, and she passes out. The fox jumped away from Hinata falling forward. 'I knew it.' the fox thinks.
'What'd you do to her?' Naruto asks her.
'Nothing, but I was only proving my thoughts.'
'again.... huh?'
'Nothing.'
Iruka walks in at that moment. "Alright class settle down." The fangirls continue to bicker and fawn over Sasuke. "Settle down." Iruka says with a little more irritation. The fangirls continue on.
Iruka brings up his hands and does four symbols. Goat, Monkey, Horse, Dragon.
"WILL YOU SHUT UP!" Iruka says with his big head no jutsu.
The girls quickly get into their seats. "Alright, with the peanut circus settled down, I can now hand out the first portion of your tests. It will be a written exam."
'Oh, hell,' Naruto thinks, 'My worst subject.'
The tests are handed out, and the written portion was taken. One hour later, they were turned in, much to Naruto's demise. 'craaaaap,' he thinks, 'I only knew half the stuff on that test.'
'Luckily, you can get flying colors on the next parts.'
"Alright class, the next portion of the test if transformation and replacement tests." Iruka starts. The class lined up, and everyone went through it like normal. Naruto passed the replacement portion with flying colors, but his transformation part he kinda had some fun.
"Transform no jutsu!" and cue the sexy jutsu pose. "Ir-uk-a-sen-sei." Iruka falls back with nose bleed.
"NARUTO!" Irua says with his big head jutsu. "WILL YOU QUIT IT?"
"hehehe, you know you like it you closet pervert." Naruto says. Nearby is a red fox with her belly up. The fox looks like it's either laughing or choking to death, no one really knows.
"Alright class, the next part of the test is the weapons test."
Naruto perks up, 'Oh yea. One of my best.'
Outside, the class lines up behind a table with random kunai and shuriken placed on it.
"This portion of the test, you will be graded on how well you can hit one of the three the targets. You will get 10 tries with kunai, and 10 tries with shuriken." The test goes on for a while before Naruto gets called up.
"Naruto Uzumaki," Mizuki calls out. Naruto gets up and head over to the table. He threw the first kunai and it landed perfectly in one of the target. Naruto repeated the process for all of the rest, and scored perfects. He picked up 5 shuriken, and threw them all at the same time. He made 4 of them land perfectly, but the last one missed. He picked up 3 more shuriken and made them all land perfectly. And the last 2 he threw as he jumped up and down. Both landed at angles on the targets. He smiled, "WOOT!"
"Naruto scored 10 kunai tries, and 9 shuriken tries." The spector called out.
"Sasuke Uchiha!" Mizuki called. Sasuke went up, and tried.
"Sasuke scores 7 kunai tries, and 4 shuriken tries." Sasuke glares at Naruto.
He walked up to Naruto, "How did you get so good at throwing?" Sasuke asks.
"That's for me to know, and for you to never find out." Naruto smiles back.
Sakura gets up, and walks over to Iruka. "Um, Iruka-sensei. Naruto was cheating, he had to be."
"What makes you think that, Sakura?"
"Because he scored higher then Sasuke."
"Just because Sasuke is a prodigy, doesn't make him perfect." Iruka sighs.
"NO WAY! SASUKE IS THE BEST!" random fangirl number 13 gets crushed by author.
"fatality" a deep voice calls out.
"Where did that come from?" Naruto asks. Kina just shrugs.
Cue sweat drop on the rest of the classes heads.
The rest of the class went on like that.
"Okay, now that we have your weapons testing done, we move onto the genjutsu portion of the test."
Students were called in one by one, and they came out with a headband or not.
"Naruto, It's your turn."
Naruto gets up, and goes into the room.
"Okay, Naruto," says Iruka, "You only need one clone in order to pass."
"Right." Naruto responds, and performs a few hand signs.
"CLONE JUTSU!" Naruto calls out. A cloud of smoke appears near Naruto, but instead of a healthy clone there lies next to him, a sick one.
Iruka looks at Naruto, "Sorry, Naruto, you fail."
"but-"
"You failed, you can take it again next year."
Naruto hangs his head low.
XXXXXX
Outside, the students that pass are near their parents. Said parents are congratulating their kids. Naruto sits on the swing. He slightly sad that he didn't pass the test. Okay, he;s not slightly sad, he's outright depressed.
"C'mon kit, Let's go home and get a good night sleep."
Naruto nods. He gets up, and starts moving toward the grounds exit.
Mizuki was sitting next to a tree. "Hey there, kid."
Naruto looks up. "Hello, Sensei."
"Hey, don't be sad. There's another way to pass the genin exam."
Naruto lights up. "How?"
"Well..."
XXXXXXX
"HOKAGE!" Mizuki yells, "NARUTO WAS RUNNING OFF WITH THE FORBIDDEN SCROLL!" As he ran into the Hokage's office.
"WHAT?" Hokage starts. He pushed a button on his desk, "I want every available Jounin and Chuunin on the roof right away."
"Hai, Hokage-sama." the voice says back.
Five minutes later, "Everyone, it is believed that Naturo Uzumaki has stolen the forbidden scroll." the Hokage starts. "As such, I want everyone to go out and find him. You are NOT to kill the kid, just retrieve the kid and scroll. GO!"
Sarutobi pinched the bridge of his nose. 'How did a kid with only a few years of ninja skills pass by my ANBU?'
XXXXXX
Out in the woods.
"I can't believe you stole the forbidden scroll. Eh, oh well. What's done is done." says Kina. "Might as well learn from the stupid thing."
Naruto opened it up. Inside were several jutsu. "Naruto, look at this one. This is just what we need."
Naruto looked at it and grinned.
30 minutes later, there is a panting Naruto over an open scroll. "I got it!" he exclaims.
"Naruto!" A voice calls out.
"Iruka-sensei, what are you doing here?"
"That's what I should be asking you. Half the village is looking for you."
"I learned a jutsu from the scroll! So do I pass?" Naruto looks up with puppy dog eyes.
"Who told you that you would pass by learning from the scroll?" Iruka asks confused.
"Me!" Naruto and Iruka turn to see Mizuki up in a tree.
"Mizuki-san, what are you saying?"
"Naruto, Hand over the scroll." Mizuki says.
"Don't do it Naruto!"
"Naruto, do as I say, you can't trust Iruka. He's keeping a secret from you, they all have!" Mizuki gets a scary smiley look on his face.
"Don't say it Mizuki! Don't Say it!" Iruka yells out.
"What everyone is keeping from you-"
"Don't!"
"-is that inside of you-"
"STOP!"
"- is the Kyuubi no kitsune! Your a DEMON!" Mizuki throws his giant shuriken at Naruto in hopes of killing the boy when he is surprised.
"I know," Naruto says, and jumps above the shuriken.
"Naruto!" Kina yells out in warning.
Naruto looks up, only to see a second giant shuriken coming at him. He was trapped, there was no way he could dodge it in time.
"NARUTO! DUCK!"
Nartuo closes his eyes. When he doesn't feel pain, he slowly opens his eyes. In front of him was Iruka, who took the blow for Naruto.
"Why?" Naruto asks.
"Because, I was like you. When I lost my parents to the nine-tailed demon, I was always alone. I acted out in class to gain attention, and even wore the same orange suit you wear." Iruka says.
"Who cares," Mizuki says, "You're both dead meat soon anyways."
"Oh yea! Well news flash dumbass! YOU'RE GONNA BE THE ONE BEATEN TO A PULP!"
He makes two hand signs, the second being the cross sign we're all familiar with, "KAGE BUSHIN NO JUTSU!" And from that call, 100 Naruto clones are made.
'You did it kid!' Kina says.
'Clones!? No, these are more then just plain clones. They're SOLID!' Iruka thinks.
…...'Shit...' Mizuki thinks.
For the next hour or so, strange screams are heard from inside the forest.
XXXXXX
The sun rises up, "Hey Naruto!" Iruka calls out from his place by the tree.
"Yes?"
"Close your eyes for a moment."
"Okay." Naruto closes his eyes, and feels a strange sensation.
"Okay, you can open your eyes now." Iruka says.
Naruto looks up to see Iruka's head band missing. In Iruka's right hand is Naruto's goggles.
Naruto reaches up, he feels the headband on his forehead.
"Naruto, go ahead and drop the genjutsu on yourself."
Naruto looks surprised, trying to figure out why Iruka knows about it, but then reconsiders the fact that Iruka is a chuunin.
"Fine," Naruto says, and a puff of smoke envelopes him.
Out comes our Naruto, wearing his light blue over cloak. Naruto pulls the hood down from his head.
"So that's what your ears look like." Iruka says.
"Yeap." Naruto Smiles.
"Well, Congrats, Naruto. You're a ninja now, so you don't have to hold up the genjutsu anymore."
Naruto brightens up. "WOOHOO, I'm a ninja!" And he proceeds to glomp Iruka.
'Told ya you could do it kit.' Kina thinks.

tbc...
Agh, Setting up the story from 5 years of age is tough. I promise the next chapter will start to branch off a little from the usual story line stuffs.
I want to thank all the authors mention at the top of the prologue for letting me use some of their ideas ^^
IMPORTANT NOTICE: I know that the story isn't original so far, just give me some time to pump out more chapters before you start flaming.
Now, I'm kinda tired of writing at the moment, so see ya next time.
If you see a mistake, please tell me.
A/n: NO FLAMERS ALLOWED!
