Bold "Jutsu"

Bold Italic "Flash Back or Nightmare"

Italic "Thoughts"

Naruto gasped. He almost fell of the swing he was sitting on. He blinked and saw the ninja academy, not burned down and flatten but tall and strong. He carful looked around and saw a crowd of parents hugging their children and saying "congratulations" or "well done". He knew where he was. This was the day he failed the genin test for the 3rd time.

He smiled to himself thinking "It worked. I'm in the past".

Naruto was so relived it had worked "Thank you Nagato" he thought.

But back to the present, Naruto knew he needed to stop smiling and act sad. Out of the corner of his eye Naruto saw Mizuki.

His blood ran cold.

Naruto barged down the academy main door. He had to hurry. He sprinted down the corridor down to his old class room. When he swung the door open he saw a dreadful sight. Sakura had just finished slitting a young boy's throat and Mizuki had Iruka by the throat, pressed against the wall.

Sakura saw him and shouted "Mizuki kill him and once you're finished with baka here come and meet me at the main village gate "once she had finished speaking she leapt out of a window so she could escape.

Mizuki looked over his shoulder and saw Naruto. "Ah, if it isn't the demon Hokage. Come to save your sensei? Well too late!"

And before Naruto could stop him, Mizuki plunged his kunai deep in to Iruka's throat. Naruto roared with rage and before Mizuki could even blink, Naruto snapped his neck. He let the corpse fell as he rushed to Iruka's side. "Iruka-sensei, no!"

Naruto pulled himself to the present. "Don't think about that" he thought to himself.

He needed to remain focused. He needed to look down in the dumps. As Mizuki silently made his way behind Naruto, the boy in question knew what he had to do. He looked up pretending to see Mizuki for the first time. He smiled at him and Naruto had to resist ringing his neck.

*Hours later*

As Naruto came into the clearing with the forbidden scroll on his back, he saw the cabin and he walked towards it. Naruto was chuckling to himself. It had been so kami damn easy getting the scroll the seconded time round that no one will notice it gone for at least five hours. That gave him plenty of time to test his abilities. Without even opening the scroll, he put his hands together to form the ram symbol.

"Shadow Clone Jutsu "he bellowed.

Around 100 clones appeared in the clearing. He smiled to himself or rather him selves. One of the clones said "What the hell. Why are we midgets. One minute were talking with purple eyes, the next were standing in our old "please kill me" bright orange jumpsuit"

It seemed the clones had retained his memories. Well some of them anyhow. Instead of explaining he dispelled all of the clones and watched the smoke they produced while thinking what to do next.

After Nagato's invasion, Naruto had been training his butt off, learning how to control the Kyuubi, increasing his knowledge and had been entirely focused on learning hand sign Jutsus. He had been so far behind in elemental manipulation he could only do one Jutsu, Rasen Shrunken.

True it was powerful, but it cost too much chakra and he decided that shadow clones were getting too old because everyone knew his tactics with them. So he learned lots of wind style jutsus. Also he learned that he had a secondary affinity, earth. And by the time Naruto could control the fox, he discovered another element, curtsy of his nine tallied tenet.

So when it came to that fateful day, Naruto had fire, wind and earth Jutsus done to a T. His stupidity had been replaced by a more serious one, well on duty anyway.

He was known as the "Fox Shuriken of the leaf". This was because all of his manipulation jutsus that did not need hand signs usually took the form of a shuriken. The fox part... well that bit was obvious.

After thinking for a bit, Naruto decided to test his chakra control. Leaving the forbidden scroll by the cabin, Naruto headed towards a tree. As he reached its trunk, Naruto wondered if he had to learn to control his chakra all over again. Gritting his teeth together, he began to walk up the tree. He was relived as he walked up and down the tree with hardly any effort at all. After his first try he then added more difficulty to the exercise by putting a leaf on his forehead. He needed to make it float a fraction off his forehead while walking up and down the tree. This too was so easy that he almost laughed. He continued for ten minutes; adding more stuff to float and balancing kunai on the tips of his fingers until he concluded that his control was almost near perfect.

"Now for the real challenge" he thought.

He put his hands together, did a couple of hand sigs and said "Clone jutsu."

Next second, 10 clones appeared by his side. He was about to congratulate himself when he saw a single, pathetic copy of himself on the clearing floor.

Sighing, he dispelled the clones with gloom on his face. Even after 8 years of practice, starting from when he was a genin, he still could not do that jutsu without making one messed up clone.

After his little pout, Naruto decided to test his other classic. Thinking he might as well try with one hand, he extended his left arm out in front of him and began to focus. The familiar orb began to form in his hand, but as he looked at it carefully he noticed that the chakra was not spinning as fast as it should be. Knowing what was going to happen, Naruto walk upped to a tree and slammed his incomplete Rasengan into its trunk. As expected he could not sustain it, instead he just cut a spiral pattern into the tree's bark.

"That is probably going to happen if I use my right hand" he said thoughtfully.

Naruto knew that he could not just show tremendous power right off the back so he decided not to practice the Rasengan, but he decided to try out his element manipulation.

Picking up a stone, he placed it in the palm of his hand and began to focus his wind chakra. It took several minutes, but he managed to cut a jagged slash into the rock. Frowning, Naruto tried again with a different stone, this time the cut was deeper but still jagged. Knowing that he had to make it cut in half perfectly, he decided to get his clones to work on his other manipulations plus chakra control exercises. He may have his chakra control down but he need to increase his chakra reserves, even if it was only a little. As he summoned more clones he looked up at the starry night sky. "This is going to take a long time" he thought.

*five hours later*

Iruka was leaping through the trees, fowling Naruto's trail. He was angry and upset that Naruto had stolen the forbidden scroll. The boy has always done pranks and such but this was the limit. Stealing the scroll was a capital offence.

"Naruto must be upset that he has failed the Genin exam for the third time" Iruka thought sadly "He might just be doing this for a prank".

One thing was clear; he was going to have a few words with Naruto about this. He landed by the edge of the clearing with the little cabin in the middle. Iruka saw Naruto and was about to yell at him when he noticed what he was doing. The blonde was holding a stone in each hand, and as the chunin watched he saw the stones brake into two. Iruka recognised this as a wind manipulation exercise, but could not understand how the blonde knew about the exercise or that he accomplished it with two stones, a feat that only jounin could pull off. He was brought back to reality when Naruto said "Iruka-sensei".

Looking into Naruto face he saw for a brief moment a look of sadness and joy, his eyes filled with tears. But as Iruka looked, it vanished as quickly as it had come. Did he imagine it? "Caught me already, huh sensei" he said with his big goofy grin on his face.

Iruka looked at Naruto and said "Naruto where did..." but Naruto cut across him.

"All right Iruka-sensei, I'm going to show you this amazing jutsu, and you're going to let me graduate. That's the way it works right?"

"Huh" Iruka said, caught off guard "Where did you get that idea?"

"Mizuki-sensei told me about it. He told me were to get the scroll and this place..." a puzzled expression fell on Naruto face "But I was surprised that I had to steal the forbidden scroll. I thought it was a capital offence to do that."

"It is Naruto but I can't understand..."Iruka noticed a glint of metal out of the corner of his eye "LOOK OUT!" he yelled pushing Naruto out of the way as several kunai pinned him against the cabin wall.

Naruto landed on his feet and saw what had happened to Iruka. He wiped around to see Mizuki standing on a tree branch, with two giant shuriken on his back. "I see you found our hideaway" he said with a smirk on his face.

Naruto had to stop himself from tearing him limb from limb right there and then. Naruto glanced at Iruka and saw that some of the kunai had pierced his arm, blood seeping down his jacket. "You basted; this was all a trick wasn't it"

Mizuki laughed "You're not as dumb as you look demon brat"

Iruka started pulling the kunai out and threw the first one onto the ground as he yelled "Naruto, get out of here. Take the scroll and get back to Konoha, I'll deal with this lying traitor"

Mizuki gave an evil smirk "Oh I'm the liar eh. Well how about some truth then" he looked at Naruto as he was about to pick up the scroll of the ground "Starting with you demon"

Iruka was pulling the 4th kunai out when he heard what Mizuki said "Don't Mizuki"

"They have been lying to you your whole life; didn't you think it was strange how they treated you? Like dirt, like they hated you for just being alive"

Naruto pretended to stop in shock and look at Mizuki in fake shock "What do you mean, lying about what" the blonde said in surprised tone. But going on in Naruto head was like this "God I hate this acting, I wish I could just kill him now but I got to wait for a bit. One thing is for sure is I am not letting him hurt Iruka again"

"They lied when they said that the 4th had killed the Kyuubi, you can't kill a demon. So they sealed it into a newborn infant"

Iruka was franticly pulling out the kunai so he could stop Mizuki telling Naruto the truth. "STOP IT!" he yelled, but Mizuki only just shouted "THAT NEW BORN INFANT WAS YOU!YOU ARE THE NINE TALLIED FOX!"

He looked to at Naruto to see the effect this would have on him, and was shocked to see him not crying about that no one will accept him because of what he is but just looked at Mizuki and yelled "I already knew that you basted and you're wrong! I am not the kyuubi, and even if I was I'd still be a better person than you! If I am truly a demon at least I would not be whatever you are, you back stabbing basted! You betrayed your own village, even tried to kill one of your comrades! You may call me a demon but you're nothing more than a selfish monster"

The blonde picked up a kunai 'that Iruka had pulled out to free himself' and readied himself "Try and hurt my sensei again and I will KILL YOU!"

Mizuki laughed, but was surprised the change in the blonde before him "LET SEE YOU TRY! SHOW ME WHAT YOU CAN DO NINE-TALIED FOX!"

Naruto smirked and, still holding the kunai, raised his hands to form the ram seal "Multi Shadow Clone Jutsu!"

Iruka blinked as he saw hundreds, no thousands of Narutos appearing in the clearing "These aren't illusions, there solid clones" Iruka thought, amazed "He has mastered an advance jutsu"

Mizuki was so shocked he fell off the branch, landing on his backside. He started whimpering and mumbling for mercy.

"IF YOU'RE NOT COM'N" the clones yelled "WE ARE" And they all jumped into the air towards Mizuki. He tried to stand and was trying to pull out one of his shuriken as the clones, in mid jump, puffed into smoke, causing a major smoke screen. Mizuki had started to laugh at Naruto incompetence, though it was shot lived as the blonde shot out of the smoke with the kunai in his hand. Mizuki had underestimated Naruto, now the said blonde had stuck a kunai through his throat and all went black

Iruka could not see what was happening. Had Naruto defeated Mizuki? Or had Mizuki killed him. Iruka's blood ran cold. If Naruto had died, it would be his fault. He should have stopped him from charging Mizuki; he should have engaged him before... Iruka then heard a shrill gasp of pain. He looked at the smoke as it cleared away to see Naruto standing before Mizuki's corpse. His hands were covered in blood
