To clio1111 : There is a reason I did this. In my story, Naruto is the forgiving type, but to a limit. He will forgive his family as he knew something. What that is, you will have to wait and see.

To edo123456 : It isn't a neglect fiction, just a story how parents try to mends the bonds broken. Though I am thinking about making a prequel to The Dragon of Konoha, which will be a Neglect fiction.

To MODdenial : As you should know, I am a bit new to this hobby of writing fanfiction. Hence they will seem a bit rushed, which I will try to tone down. When I get better, I will do a rewrite of this fanfiction.

To dark wolf of death : Same with MODdenial, I am a bit new to this business.

To Spikedmaster290 and Facebreaker17 : Thanks.

Days passed by quickly as Team 7, or as the Jounins like to call them, The Dragon's Batch, did D-Class mission, which was another word for chores which the villagers and ninjas alike were too lazy to do.

They had to weed out the grasses, clean the dishes and even the occasional spring cleaning of houses. Though it was for the Gennins to start their life as a Shinobi and Kunoichi, Arashi, Natsumi and Naruko couldn't help but feel useless while doing this.

" The thing I wonder about is that why ARE WE STILL DOING THIS ?" Naruko yelled to no one in particular. She was quick to temper of the trio, senselessly trying to beat Arashi to unconsciousness, who tried to lift her spirits.

Naruto made a mental note to talk to Naruko about her anger issues, while also looked for Jutsus which could help Arashi in staying sane, after the amount of beatings he took. He had no doubt that his head must have been fractured by this time.

" You know, if you let your anger control you, you will wind up dead, Naruko." Naruto told her, " Trust me, ninjas use that in order to lower your guards."

" But what can I do ? Niisan." Naruko whined. " You know that patience is not one of my strongest virtues."

" That's because you were given everything." Naruto stated happily. Naruko winced, knowing that while she was given things, Naruto had to earn them.

The group continued working, with Naruto overseeing their progress. Sure, Natsumi was the intelligible of the group. She always made the best strategies which would give them the quickest success. Arashi and Naruko would usually compete with each other.

Though the mission, clean some old lady's house, was going slowly, Naruto thought of a method which could get this work done faster.

" I have decided that whoever will clean their assigned rooms will get to learn a special jutsu, the Shadow Clone Jutsu, from me." Naruto smirked as his plan began to bear fruit. Soon the whole house was clean within the next hour, with Natsumi being the clear winner, much to the disappointment of Arashi and Naruko.

Soon they were in another clearing of the Forest of Death. They were all dusty from cleaning the house so he used some seals to summon some bathing suits, which he gave to them so they could bathe in the nearby river.

As they came back and Natsumi got ready, he taught them the forbidden jutsu, as he promised his dad that he would teach them when they were ready. " Because you have the Kyuubi chakra, you can use that to a huge amount, like hundreds of clones. Due to my training alone and having the soul of the Kyuubi, I can easily make thousands." Naruto told her. When she nodded, he continued, " What is the good thing about them is that they are solid clones, with memories. They make the best spying material."

Natsumi had a dawn of realization on what Naruto just told her. If what was said was correct, then she could get a month's worth of training done in a day. Seeing as his sister had realized the pros of Shadow Clones, he taught her the hand signs.

" I had to steal the scroll for this Jutsu to get Mizuki-teme out in the open." Naruto told her sister.

" Why would you do that, Onii-chan ?" Naruko asked him.

" My threads found out that he was a traitor to the village. In the end, I had to kill him when I was made Jounin, as that was when we made the plan." Naruto told them as he remembered the whole fight. That was the first time he went on a rage as Mizuki had kidnapped Hinata to use her as a bargaining chip. " That was by far one of the most one sided fights I ever fought."

Naruto then looked at Naruko, " He blinded me with rage, I nearly lost one of my heart." Naruko had a look of shock on her face as she thought that her brother was one of the most level headed person ever. What had Mizuki done ?

" What did the bastard do ?" Arashi asked his older brother/ role model.

" He threatened my precious people." He told them." It was because of that I had to join the Torture and Interrogation unit to release my pent up anger."

The Gennins paled at this. They knew that whoever joined that unit had some kind of sadist nature in them. They looked at their brother, who was smiling. " Let's hope that you never see my methods."

They continued their training for a while, till the moment they heard a rustle of leaves behind them. Suddenly, a blur of dark blue and pink crashed in to Naruto, who grabbed the blur, revealed to be Hinata and kissed her. The Gennins blushed at this.

" What are you doing here Hinata-hime ?" The Dragon asked.

" What, can't I see my boyfriend ?" Hinata pouted, still in Naruto's arms.

" Alright, I give." Was the reply of the blond before he started kissing her again.

" Hey, get a room you two." A new voice shouted, accompanied by a bark. " Damn right Akamaru, at the rate they are going, they will have babies in no time."

This time the couple blushed at the remark. Yes they had planned to get married when they were considered legal adults, but this was just ridiculous. They talked about their future together. Having kids, living together and stuff like that.

" You know, Kiba, you should get a girlfriend." Hinata replied to her friend. " That way, you'll be busy and see what we see."

It was then Kiba came into view, with his ever loyal partner, Akamaru in his hoodie. He was followed by Shino Aburame and the Genjutsu Mistress of Konoha, Kurenai Yuhi. " So all of you are here for training as well." Naruto asked them.

" Yeah, we figured that doing missions with people we didn't know was important as well." Kiba answered.

So with that they all began performing missions which again required them to clean some houses and stuff like that. Natsumi, on the other hand, was indulged with Kiba on dog care tips. Naruto knew that she had always wanted a dog but due to the fact that his parents were busy training her, she never had enough time to take care of one.

" You know, Natsumi, if you get a nin-dog, you can keep it as a partner and as a pet, like Kiba here." Naruto told her. Her eyes widened. She looked to Kiba with pleading eyes, as if to say that she wanted one.

" We did have a litter just a week ago, if you want one you can ask my mom, Natsumi-chan." Kiba told her.

Naruto smirked. He knew that the Inuzuka had a crush on his sister and his Natsumi always adored Akamaru, petting him whenever she got the chance. If he played his cards well, he could help them become a couple. " Still playing the matchmaker ?" Kurenai asked him. His reputation as a matchmaker started when he helped some two couple realize their love and from that point it escalated. As that happened, he gained another nickname, one which he wished to die down as soon as possible : ' The Love Guru'. He didn't liked it as it had a similar tone to that of his godfather Jiraiya.

" Meh, trying them to find love as soon as possible." Naruto told her, " And by the way you still need to pay me for winning the bet." She sighed at this. She had place a bet against Naruto that he couldn't help Orochimaru and Anko get together. But lo and behold, there they were, already talking about marriage and stuff. Sometimes he wondered whether he had done the right thing, because he could have caused the creation of babies who were as deadly as Orochimaru in combat and as sadistic in nature when tortu- no training, yes training, people as Anko.

He shuddered at the thought alone. " By the way, got to report to tou-san on the chores." He told her before turning to his team, " You can all relax for the day. Natsumi, you can have a dog, as having more than one styles can help you." He spoke seriously, then smiled, " And you love dogs as well."

Natsumi squealed and dragged Kiba, asking him where the litter of puppies were. Kiba silently thanked Naruto for giving him some time to spend with his crush. He had taking a liking to her when he saw her perform. He consulted his mother and Naruto about it, with both of them telling him that he loved her. All she needed was a push in the right direction.

Team 8 stood in front of the Hokage desk, with Minato finishing all the paperwork via Shadow Clones. He was grateful to his son, who told him the secret of the Hokage. He looked at Hinata Naruto's girlfriend. If what Naruko and Natsumi told him was correct, Naruto even planned on marrying her. He needed to talk with her, just to find how to connect to Naruto better. When he gave them the day off, he stopped Hinata.

" Hinata, I need your help." Minato told her.

" What do you need my help for, Hokage-sama ?" Hinata bowed.

" No need for formalities, Hinata, just call me Minato," Minato told her, " I just need to know how to know Naruto better."

" That is simple, just be there for him." She told him happily. But with a serious look, she continued, " But be warned, Minato-sama, Naruto will forgive you but he has not forgotten the scars he had gotten."

" Yes, I know." Minato told her with a sigh. " That's why we are doing our best to be a complete family. How it should have been." He really wanted it to be a reality, but with Naruto helping them, it wasn't far-off. " You know, Natsumi told me that Naruto really wants to marry you, is that true ?" He asked her, grinning.

Hinata blushed a little before replying, " We wish to get married as soon as we are considered legal adults." She also pulled out a scroll and gave it to her future father-in-law. " Oh, and Naruto-kun wanted to give you this."

" Huh, that quick." Minato murmured, causing Hinata to nod. " Well then, you are invited to dinner." He told her, before wishing her a good day. He looked at the scroll before opening it. His eyes widened and had a mischievous gleam to it.

Kushina was on a roll, she had to make a feast. After all, it wasn't common that her son's future wife was coming over. She made all his favorite food, along with some cinnamon buns¸ which Hinata liked.

She also made a mental note to ask all of Naruto's likes and dislikes in private, so to be a better mother.

"Kaa-san, Kaa-san, guess what ? Guess what ?" Her daughter, Natsumi came in.

" What dear ?"

" Nii-san told me to get a nin-dog." Natsumi told her mother, " He says that with more taijutsu styles I can be unbeatable."

" That's true." ' I wonder if it has to do anything to do with her pet phase. '

With that, both the mother and the daughter went to the table, with the wide array of dishes, causing everyone else's mouth to water.

" So, you are telling me that you," Kushina pointed at Hinata, " Will marry my Sochi," she pointed at Naruto, who was sweating bullets, " when you become legal adults, which is at 16 years old ?" When Hinata nodded in confirmation, Kushina replied, " Well, I expect my grandbabies quick."

Naruto and Minato choked on the comment. " K-K-Kushi-chan, what a-are you saying ?" Minato asked his wife. He knew that when his wife had those thoughts, it was best not to interrupt her.

" Hai, I will make sure. Kushina-san." Hinata replied to the red-head. Naruto had a slight nose bleed while his siblings snickered at him.

" Onichan will have a baby." Mito squealed. It was obvious to her where this was headed. " When, when, please tell me." She used the Puppy Eyes Jutsu as she clung onto her brother's sleeve.

" Not now, Mito-chan. Not until we are married." Hinata told her.

" Call me Kushina, or Mom. How much are you planning ?" Kushina asked her. Minato, who was drinking orange juice, spat all of it on Naruto, who made tomatoes look pale in comparison.

" Dozens." Hinata told her. Naruto and Minato so much paled at this that they made Orochimaru look like he had tan.

Sure, him and Hinata talked like this in private, but with their families, it was awkward. As his sibling, except for Mito, were making fun of him, his ' Instructor Mode' kicked in. Looking at his dad, he spoke in a very formal tone, " Hokage-sama, it seems that my team is ready for that S-Ranked mission."

Everyone stopped talking at this point, with Minato having a very serious face but on the inside, he was snickering. He knew what mission his son was talking about. So did Kushina. And that was in comparison the greatest prank ever pulled, which she was all for.

" So it seems. Kushina-san, what is your opinion on this matter ?" Minato asked his wife.

" They are, as Jounin Namikaze told you, ready for that mission." Kushina replied, with a sickly sweet voice. If there was one thing she taught her children well, it was never to make fun of their elder sibling in the presence of the parents. And they had to learn it the hard way.

Hinata, who also knew about the mission, was smiling. She loved this nature of Naruto. He would fit punishment and exercise in one go. And in truth, the greatest prank of all Shinobi and Kunoichi history was going off without a hitch. Sure she and Kushina made some minor adjustment to the original plan, but, meh, what could you really do when the results were to be the same.

" Hmm, yes, you are correct. Alright, Team 7, you will come to the office to receive the mission tomorrow." Minato spoke, before entering the' Father Mode' and continuing his dinner.

The three Gennins could only watch and wonder what had happened right now. They knew one thing was for sure : They were in a world of pain tomorrow.

" Hokage-sama, Team 7 reporting for duty." Naruto told his father, who was sitting behind the Hokage desk with Kushina, who was holding Mito's hand, right behind Minato.

" Here is the information on the mission. Due to the fact that this is an S-Rank mission so this will be the only one for today." Minato told his son.

When they left the tower, Arashi took a look at the mission papers and told his team, " We just have to catch a stupid cat."

His sisters agreed. This was going to be the easiest mission ever.

( 6 Hours later)

" CATCH THE DAMN CAT !"

" KAMI. WHY DO YOU TORTURE US ?!"

" IT'S THERE."

" I GOT IT…. LITTLE PIECE OF SHIT. IT BIT ME."

" So how was the mission ?" Naruto asked his siblings while he was forming Kurama so Mito could play with the Fox construct. Minato and Kushina were getting ready to set dinner.

" It was horrible." Naruko told him. " It was scarier than Natsumi's rage on finding Uncle Jiraiya's book." Naruto winced at that. He remembered when Jiraiya had accidently left his smut lying around. When Natsumi had read the first page, two things were bound to happen : 1. The book was torn to such an extent that no one could even recognize it. 2. She swore to write a whole series which had a better plot than the Icha-Icha, had character development and certain 'stuff' only when it was required, in a less perverted manner.

Well, Natsumi did both of them. Though the book wasn't quite as popular as the Icha-Icha series, women and less perverted men alike adored her book and she got a hefty sum from it, which she used fund the hospital, much to the grace of Tsunade-ba-chaan.

" Well, relax right now guys. Because Kurama will tell you guys a story." Naruto told them.

" Kurama ?" Arashi asked him.

" It's the Kyuubi's actual name."

When the whole family sat down, Naruto transferred the fox soul to the fox construct, giving it a more natural and demonic appearance.

" Ahh, feels good to stretch my legs again. Good job Kit." Kurama told Naruto. Looking at the cowering figures before him, Kurama decided to ease them a bit. " Don't worry, I won't bite your head off."

" Fox-kun." Mito squealed before rushing forward to hug the Bijuu. Everybody, except for Naruto, tensed as they saw the fox move as well. To their utmost surprise, Kurama used his tails to tickle the little girl.

The expression on everyone's faces were those of shock, clearly stating the question : What the hell is happening ?

" Umm, Kyuubi, why are you acting like this ?" Minato asked the demon, only to cause the Fox to look at him. They all saw something which they never could have believed, the Fox smiled, if a fox could.

" Simple, I was under what you call a Genjutsu during the time of the attack." Kurama told them all. " It was done by one who calls himself ' Madara Uchicha'," Minato shocked on hearing such things.

" How is he alive ?" He asked him.

" That I don't know, nor do I care about." Kurama told them. " We Tailed Beast are peaceful creatures who would prefer killing only in the manner of self defense. But you damn humans have enslaved us for your own selfish purposes." Kurama roared in the end.

" But the Juubi told me that Shikaku has a bit of an insane side." Naruto told him. Almost everyone looked at him, shocked wit what they told them.

" Good going, kit. You just told them our secret." Kurama scolded him. Seriously, he was an ANBU captain at 12, but he can't keep a secret for long. " Basically, Juubi, or Tara, is the originator of the Tailed Beast."

" So, like your Ka-saan ?" Arashi asked.

" Actually, no, Arashi. It is something like, umm, giving a gift, so to say." Naruto told younger brother.

" And how do you know of this Juubi ?" Kushina asked. She wanted to know how her Sochi knew of the Tailed Beast who started the whole thing about Demons.

Naruto took a gulp before looking at Kurama first, then at his family, " Because, with Kurama's soul, I am also the Jinchuuriki for the Juubi, Tara as well."

A collective ' What's were heard from the family. " When did this happen ?" Minato asked.

" Since I was 4." Naruto told them. " When I was resting after the ' operation', I met some old man in my mindscape who told me that I needed to save the world. So to help me he brought Juubi and introduced her to me." He then looked at his mother before giving her a grin, " You would like her, she has all these amazing recipes, like ramen."

It was decided then, Kushina needed to meet her as soon as possible. Naruto knew that at that point, his life would become hell. His mother would constantly be in touch with Tara and if he knew Tara well, which he did, she would take every moment to be with her new friend. He shuddered at the thought.

He also needed to get Kurama to date her when he got another heart, so he could get Tara in the construct. Though, it was Tara who came up with the idea and she liked the Demon Fox.

" So … Tara is what exactly, Naruto-Niisan ?" Natsumi asked.

" She is the Ten Tailed Demon Wolf." Naruto told her. " You all have to meet her. She actually is one of the nicest person I have ever known." He ended with Kurama mask reattaching itself on Naruto's back.

With that talk, they had dinner. Naruto talked about getting Natsumi a pet dog so she could get better in taijutsu as it was her weak point. She usually focused on getting stronger in the Ninjutsu area. Arashi was well quipped in Kinjutsu while Naruko was a tank in Taijutsu.

And as their Instructor and a brother, his aim was to get them to the strongest possible condition, before the so call ' Akatsuki' revealed themselves.

Minato and Kushina also talked with Naruto, mostly about his fighting styles and his interest in Fuinjutsu. It was surprising to both of them that their son was already at Seals Master level 8. When they asked him how he was able to get so far, he simply stated that to full fill one of Hinata's dream, he needed to be at a higher level in the art of Sealing.

Minato and Kushina both knew where he was headed with this. They knew about the Caged Bird Seal, which was on every Side Branch Hyuuga. Remembering the previous night ordeals, Kushina asked him, " So how much kids you are planning on having ?"

Naruto turned red at this. Why, oh why, was his mother always on this type of talks ? " I dunno, Hinata and I, never have talked about it seriously." He half lied. He really didn't wanted to answer these questions. He felt comfortable only with Hinata, but with someone else, no. If that someone was his parents, than it was a huge no.

" Hmm, so I will need to talk with Hinata then. She has a brighter idea. Don't you agree, Minato-kun." She asked her husband.

" Y-yes dear." He knew, oh he knew that if he disagreed with his wife, she wouldn't have fun with him tonight, and that was something he wasn't willing to give up easily.

The look on Naruto's face said it all. He was in for a wild ride once he got married, with a fact he knew that Hinata had shown some of her pervertedness to him. When Naruto had a date with Hinata, on his first day as a Jounin Sensei, they went to the Chunin Exam Tower where they had lunch. While Naruto was getting a bath, Hinata walked up on him. That resulted in a hot make-out session, in the bath, naked.

Naruto blushed, remembering these events and knew that they would take it to the next level once they were married. He also knew that she was very protective of him. Even if some random girl, with whom she wasn't on a good terms with, tried to snatch him away, Hinata would show them the reason why she was to be feared.

He also needed to calm himself that once he was married to Hinata, he could have all the fun in the world. Excusing himself from the conversation, he went to his room. He knew that he was going to have a good sleep, as he had planned to bring Hinata over the next day for some night cuddling.

Soon he was asleep on his 'bed', as he dreamt a dream where there was no pain. No worries for anyone. Where he lived with his beautiful princess, Hinata. But he knew. Hinata knew. He was on a mission to save 'her'. She had called out to help her. Like Kurama, she was also being controlled. And like the person Naruto was, he couldn't standby when someone was in pain. So him and Hinata promised to save her and free her from her pain.

So. Second chapter. First of the many replies to reviews done before starting the chapter.

Now some of you may be wondering why I chose to show Naruto forgiving his family. Simple, this is not a neglect fic. This is a story of how Naruto, who is a Jounin Sensei, teaches his siblings.

Well that's it.

Rate and Review please. Oh, I almost forgot. NO FLAMES.
