CHAPTER 2: first day
The two blondes arrived at the clothing store that was near the ramen stand; the owner was ecstatic to receive the customers until he laid out eyes on Naruto.
"What are you doing here brat?" snarled the clerk
The boy looked downcast and was about to step out of store, he was sure that his uncle would understand. When a hand held him by his shoulder, the blond looked up to see his uncle looking at the offender with stern gaze.
"Naruto go and choose what you want okay" the kid nodded and went further inside the store.
The clerk was about to stop him when he found that he was unable to move a muscle, when he looked at the adult in front of him he had his eyes narrowed and solely focused on his persona.
Naruto being Naruto decided to ask "hum uncle why he is not moving?"
Kai looked at him and said in a calm tone as if it were the most obvious and regular thing that happened everyday (AN: killer intent) "he is just getting ready to have an adult talk with me, believe Naruto this is not for you to watch, so go on I'll catch up with you okay"
The blond only nodded and went further into the store.
The minute Naruto was out of sight and hearing range Kai lifted the clerk by the neck of his shirt and spoke in a tone so hard that could have ripped a iron bar apart. His voice barely a whisper.
"Look pathetic excuse for a man, my nephew is starting the academy tomorrow, and he needs proper clothing, clothing that you will provide, and you will do it without a word of complain, or else" he trailed off releasing a bit more of killing intent to prove his point.
The man only nodded.
Half an hour later both were leaving the store with a happy Naruto and groaning Kai, in all the planning he did he forgot the fact that he didn't grow out of the orange color until he was 17, on the bright side he did manage to do some damage control.
"Why can't I use all orange?" whined the little kid
"Because you are going to be a shinobi, and shinobis don't wear orange" said the adult calmly his patience wearing thin.
Naruto was wearing now a black vest that had two pouches in the front, and two horizontal orange stripes in the shoulders, the swirl placed in his back, underneath it he wears a orange t-shirt that have two horizontal black stripes on it's shoulders, when the shirt is wore with the vest the stripes of both make it look like they are an extension of each other, he also wears a pair of black shorts that reach his knees that has two orange stripes running down on both sides of his legs, finishing the outfit a pair of shinobi black sandals.
"Okay Naruto later we'll buy the proper gear but for now this will be enough"
Later in the day the two blondes were walking toward their home when Naruto asked one question
"Uncle what did you do to that man?"
The said man cursed mentally before proceeding to explain it, the sooner he learn these things the better whether he liked it or not his new nephew was really interested in being a shinobi.
"It's called killer intent Naruto it can be your greatest ally or enemy and without it it's nearly impossible to seriously hurt someone, some people have killer intent so powerful that can even kill you with it"
The little kid shivered at the thought, Kai with a smile on his face replied to his reaction
"But that's still a long shot to you, so don't worry about it okay"
"Uncle what about kunai and shuriken?"
"Not until I can teach you or someone in the academy teaches you how to use them"
"But"
"No buts, its for the best, those aren't toys you know that right" interrupted Kai
The little kid puffed his cheeks in annoyance but nodded.
Not too much later after they picked Naruto's new clothes they reached the compound since it was starting to darken Kai send an extremely unwilling naruto to sleep while he went to the scroll library, after much thought he decided that the best way to go now was to retake swordsmanship again.
"Okay let's see" said the blond while going trough a scroll that said "swordsmanship for intermediate and advanced users"
The next day both adult and kid were walking towards the academy, a lot of the people around him were murmuring and eyeing them suspiciously, to Naruto this was different for one reason this time there were not glares or words like 'demon' in them.
"Naruto what's wrong?" asked Kai truly concerned.
"They are talking about us and it's making me nervous"
"Why it's not the first time that happens"
"This is different it's like" the kid trailed off
"Its like they are judging you or appraising you isn't it?"
"Yeah"
"That's because they are Naruto, you and me are the last of a great clan and we're related to a great man as well, you're his son and I'm his brother, they are looking if we can fill that role, that and the fact that they expect me to continue the bloodline and you as well"
"How?" asked the kid innocently
Kai almost tripped at the comment of all the things that the old man could've forget to tell him was that he hadn't given the kid 'the talk', the old man will pay for this.
In the hokage tower Sarutobi shuddered for no real reason.
"I'll tell you when you grow up" said Kai in a low voice sporting a bright blush
"Why?"
"Because"
"Tell me" said the kid with determination in his eyes.
"No" said the adult equally determined.
"Tell me"
"No and don't insist I will tell when you are ready for it"
Before the argument reached further dept the arrived at the academy.
Before putting a foot inside the academy grounds Kai stood in front of Naruto, and putting both hands on his shoulders said.
"Now Naruto remember the looks we received on the way here?" the kid nodded in response.
"Well they are about to get worse" and with that they entered the academy.
At that instant Naruto knew what his relative meant: all the chatting, all the sounds, and all the whining, crying, shouts of both excitement and resignation stopped. And everyone in the room turned their gazes to the duo that arrived a moment ago.
This brought one thought at the head of the elder Kazama
"Well this moment is as good as any"
"Are you sure kit?"
"Yeah, besides I'll have to do it eventually, might as well do it now"
"I hope you know what you're doing"
Kai kneeled before Naruto and pinned a white spiral like circle on his right sleeve.
"There, I hope that this will clear any doubts you have to this point" he said to everyone in the room, while each adult that belonged to a clan widened their eyes in recognition of the spiral.
(AN: the one Naruto uses in his jumpsuit during pre-time skip)
She wondered if it was a good thing that Fugaku couldn't be here to deliver Sasuke to the academy, from the downcast look on her son it was more than obvious that he wanted his father, but seeing this Kai pinning the swirl on the kid's shoulder he couldn't help but to think that maybe this was not so bad, well that was Mikoto's thoughts, because if her husband find out he would be planning already how to add the kid to the clan.
Hiashi seeing the spectacle was happy that he didn't relegate escorting his daughter to a branch member.
Inoichi had heard the rumors and seriously doubted them, he labeled them as ranting of a drunk but with this as proof he was wondering if it was possible that Ino might have a chance, because if it comes down to it he rather have a Kazama as a son in law than an Uchiha or a Hyuuga, that and the fact that his wife seems to have already made wedding plans on her mind.
"What's this?" asked the kid eyeing the swirl on his sleeve.
"This recognizes you as the Kazama heir and this" he showed the kid a similar swirl in his sleeve with the difference that it was black "marks me as the clan head, we are officially a family now both by blood and by clan"
The blond got lost for a moment pondering the meaning of this, then it hit him, and when it did his face created the brightest smile that anyone was ever saw or seen so far on his face someone had acknowledge him and as family no less, his worst fear, the one that his uncle would reject him like everyone else does, dissipated in thin air.
"Well I hope this will mean that my nephew will be treated fairly, by everyone" he said focusing on a silver-haired chunnin, making him sweat.
"Okay Naruto be good okay" he said ruffling the kid's hair with a smile that made the women and the girls swoon and start contemplating Naruto in a new light, if his uncle was any indication of what he will look like when he was older then maybe he wasn't so bad at all.
After he left the kid at the academy he went to a weapon store, after all he still needed to make more of those special kunai not to mention acquiring a pair of katana and a pair of wakisashi.
After entering the store a bell placed on the door chimed, signaling the entry of a potential customer, sound that made Higurashi Koji come to the exhibitor. He was a man that has strait brown hair and chocolate eyes, fair complexion both on body and face.
"Welcome to my store how can I be of service?"
"Well for starters I would like a pair of katanas one for me and another one shortened for 12 year-old kid, a pair of wakisashis made of chakra-conductive metal and lets say a hundred of these" he finished showing the man the blueprints for a tree-pronged kunai.
Koji's eyes widened in recognition of the design, it had been years since the last time he made something like this, then his face split in a grin for these meant two things, the first that the rumors were true and the second that he is a bout to make and will keep making a lot of money.
"Yes I can made them, those and the swords will be 300,000 ryo"
At this Kai's eyes widened before groaning at the loss his wallet was about to take before handing the man the money
"I can have everything ready in tree weeks"
With that he left the store when he felt it and a chill ran down his spine he turned around and the horror! hundreds of women looking at him as if he was some sort of meat, he took an involuntary step back while wondering if his father now older brother had to deal with this before he died.
The mob of women ran after him, for his life he couldn't understand how both shinobi and civilians alike could be fast enough to keep up with him when he was running near an alley a hand shot out and grabbed him by the neck of his battle cloak pulling him in the dark alley away from the predatory masses.
Kai was about to thank the person that helped him when his face drained from all color when he find out that said person was none other than the snake mistress.
"Anko-san" he said in low voice as if fearing to provoke the woman in front of him
"What's wrong Kai-san don't you like what you see" she asked in mix of sensual and sweet voice while walking towards him swaying her hips more than necessary
"Don't you find me attractive at all?" she asked with a fake put on her face while leaning towards the blonde's face
"No quite contrary" Kai tried to take another step back only to find himself at the end of the alley.
And before Anko could act he swooped her of her feet and holds her a couple of inches of the ground his right arm holding her legs and his left arm holding her by the waist.
"As much as I would love to stay here and make you company" the blond said while bringing his lips towards hers in a painfully slow motion.
A couple of inches he stopped, grinned and let her go making her fall on her butt "I have more pressing matters to attend to, so sorry but it will have to wait, besides if you wanted to play you should've said so" he said in a playful tone, this was payback for all the times she stalked him in his previous life.
Shizune was not sure of why they were back in konoha as the slug sannin didn't elaborate the only thing she said to her was something about her sensei calling her for something important before going to who knows where leaving her alone with the pig, just when she was thinking what to do with her temporary new found liberty when a black and blond blur passed her followed by what it seemed to be a lot of fan-women. For a moment the eyes of both the blond man and hers met and Shizune couldn't help but to blush at his appearance.
The blush remained until she saw a hand shot out of an alley and grab the newfound object of her attractions, she narrowed her eyes that will not do, Anko might be a nice person, a sadistic person but nice nevertheless, but she will not be denied this far too long she had been traveling without even the present shred of hope for a romantic relationship, as the only people interested in her were debt collectors and even then it was interest on her money.
On the roof of one of the buildings that made Kurenai arrived in time only to see how the elder Kazama shunshined away in swirl of lighting and wind, she contemplated her next course of action when she was caught in the gazes of the other two females she narrowed her eyes and refused to back down from the unspoken challenge. As the tree females shared one thought in the matter.
"HE IS MINE!!!!"
The blond left Sarutobi's office shaking his head lightly his encounter with Tsunade could have gone better, what he didn't understand was what went wrong even after showing her his memories she still didn't want anything to do with the leaf, even though he was sure that when the time comes she will be here to aid konoha walking towards nowhere he left his thoughts wander back to the female addition in his life.
In his old life Kai didn't really noticed other girls or women besides Sakura until he hit the 17 year old mark after that he started seeing the woman in other light, even Shizune, his beloved nee-chan, the way he saw them would make Jiraiya proud, no that he was able to date them (for starters) and now that some things that were obstacles no longer exist. Like Kurenai's son or Anko's obsession with Iruka things will go a lot easier.
"After all I still have to pitch in the whole reviving the clan"
"Too true" was the only reply that the fox gave him "so whose it's going to be the lucky one, the aggressive one, the ice queen or the brunette"
"I don't know and right now I really don't care, I'll give it some thought later, but I wonder how much time will it take the old man to find what I did"
Back to the little blond Naruto couldn't help but to thank kami for ringing the lunch bell if he stayed one more second listening about the alliance between the leaf and sand and the wars that lead to it he was going to die from boredom.
"Finally lunch! now where to go!!" said the enthusiastic kid, then he noticed a kid with a long coat, shades and afro looking at a bug in his finger, making his way to the said tree to the kid.
"Hi!!"
If the kid was surprised he didn't show it, he merely glanced towards the blond before preparing himself to leave.
"Wait you don't have to leave, if I'm bother you I can leave"
"Your presence is not bothersome at all, if anything I find it surprising" came the reply from the boy in a monotonous tone.
"Why should it be"?
"Because of my clan's abilities, they involve bugs"
"So? It's not like you're going to attack me or something of those sorts"
"It doesn't bother you?" now the boy was clearly surprised.
"Not at all, I actually think it's cool"
"Oh yeah I'm Kazama Naruto nice to meet you"
"Aburame Shino it is nice to meet you"
And with that naruto ate his lunch with someone who in time will become on of his greatest friends and ally.
After finishing the day at the academy Naruto went back to his house for some relaxation and doing the dreaded homework if he wanted to keep eating ramen when the sound of footsteps reached his ears he quickly turn around making his stalker let out an 'eep' of surprise and hide behind a wall.
He peeked behind the wall startling his stalker who in this moment revealed to be a
Pale- eyed from his class.
"Did you got lost or something like that?"
"A-a-no I-I-I've" then the girl just shook her head
"Wait I know you you're Hinata from my class right?"
The girl blushed but nodded slightly signaling an affirmation.
"I know why don't you come and eat some ramen with me!" said the blond enthusiastically
"A-a-no I d-don't think I've" she was cut off by the blond.
"Nonsense I'm sure your father will forgive you if you tell him where you were"
And with that the blond started dragging a slightly decision-torn Hinata towards the fabled ramen stand.
Kai was annoyed; when he finds his 'lovely and innocent' nephew there will be hell to pay.
And when he found it all plans of revenge went strait to hell, he found him gorging himself on ramen, the twist on the scene was that Hinata joined him in the consumption of the broth on in the same amount or speed mind you, Hinata was raised better than that but this was a step forward.
"I thought I told you to go to the compound after you finished the academy Naruto" this comment nearly make the kid choke
"Uncle I can explain"
"I w-was l-lost and Naruto-kun wanted to help me" came he timid response of the Hyuuga heiress.
"Well this was unexpected" was the thoughts on the Kazama's clan head and the thought of Hinata coming out of her shell earlier than what she did back then.
"Don't worry little girl he is not in much trouble I just worried for a moment"
"Anyways Naruto said goodbye to your new friend, after all she is here to pick her up isn't that right Hyuuga-san" he said turning around to face the female branch member behind him, who nodded in response.
"Fine, goodbye Hinata-chan!!" he waved enthusiastically
When Hinata explained to her father where she was w as recorded as one of the few days
Where Hiashi smiled.
The next day after dropping Naruto in the academy Kai went to the tower to receive his assignment, unaware that the sandaime was planning revenge after his little stunt.
Apparently Kai not only managed to steal his precious icha-icha book but he managed to trade for the yaoi version and placed it with an icha-icha cover the results of that will haunt Sarutobi for a while.
"Revenge is sweet Kazama Kai" the old man chuckled darkly at the thought.
In the tower along with the jounins the blond could only glare when he looked at his assignment, of all the things the old man could've done this was the lowest one.
He made him take a genin team.
"You understand Sarutobi that this means war" was the unsaid line of speech after he looked at his candidate for students, his life is about to get a hell lot more complicated.
----
AN: done now there is something I didn't consider until a few days ago and it's this: a Tsunami/Kai pairing, yeah I know it's kind of late now but hey better late than never.
Next the Uchiha will be partially destroyed by someone else and no unless I get a good reason Mikoto or an Uchiha OC will not be considered (the OC a big maybe and for Naruto for Kai its not an option)
And finally Naruto will have short swords and a katana and Kai will have the trench knives and a katana (I want to thank Konoha's White Fang for the idea along everyone who voiced their opinions you have no idea what is like to have people actually caring for what you write)
The poll:
For Kai:
-Shizune: 10
-Kurenai: 10
-Anko: 5
-Tsunami:????
For Naruto:
-Ino: 4
-Sasame: 8
-Hinata: 7
-Sakura:3
And for those who haven't thought of the situation at hand the winner of Kai's poll will eventually become his wife (no lemons so please do not ask for them) and along with that some jutsus that there was no other way they will get access to them for example.
Kurenai: genjutsu: wasureshi no senbonzakura (forgotten poem of a thousand cherry blossoms)
Anko: ninpo: Kyōkotsu (ninja art: dark bone)
Shizune: a different tajutsus style
As for the new one Tsunami there won't be much but her son will get some serious training ( ain the story she is 20 and she had Inari when she was 18 two years ago so when she meets with Kai she will be 25 and her son will be 7)
The polls closes nxt chapter when I announce the winners.
And finally transformers hit the screens!!!!! And I just saw it GREATEST MOVIE I HAVE EVER SEEN ALONG WITH 300!!!!!!!
