Always There for Me

Chapter seven

Looking crazed, Mizuki threw the large shuriken at Naruto. Panicking, Iruka pushed Naruto out of the shuriken's path.

Glaring at Mizuki ''What is wrong with you?!'' Iruka shouted at the mad bastard.

Naruto looked at Iruka and Mizuki, then asked ''I'm curious, did someone tell you to kill me? Do want to kill me for the sake of it or for a reason? Either way, what did I do to deserve to be killed?'' he asked Mizuki, with a straight face.

Mizuki looked at Naruto ''There is a law the Hokage made. There is something most of the village knows about you which is the reason why they hate you. Do you want to know what it is?'' he asked Naruto, looking crazier than before.

Iruka spoke up ''No, Mizuki! He's not supposed to be told! You can't tell him!'' he shouted desperately.

Naruto looked at Mizuki and said ''I have the Nine Tailed fox sealed in me. Therefore, everyone is mistaking me, the jailor of the fox, for the actual fox itself. Resulting with me wanted dead by most of the village, Dattebayo.'' Naruto said this with a matter-of-fact tone.

Mizuki gawked at Naruto ''How the hell do you know that?'' getting ready to throw the second large shuriken at the blonde boy.

However, he didn't get the chance to because someone hit the pressure point at the back of his neck, knocking him out cold. Iruka looked at the spot Mizuki had been standing in, to see the new jounin with a beyond pissed off look on his face.

Said jounin looked at Naruto, softening his expression and said ''Come on, Naruto, let's go home. I've sent a kage bunshin to inform the Hokage about what has just happened. Now I want to go home and get away from all these people I really hate being near them.'' walking off with Naruto behind him.

Naruto looked behind him and waved goodbye to Iruka.

'I feel really disappointed now. I didn't get to beat the shit out of Mizuki. Although, if Kyuu didn't knock him out, he would have gone on a rampage, because he didn't get the chance to make Mizuki pay for trying to hurt me, or something.' Naruto sighed 'At least I get assigned to my team tomorrow. I hope I don't end up being on the same team as that bastard Sasuke(1)' Naruto thought, with contempt.


Apologises for any spelling or grammar mistakes and for the shortness of the chapter.

(1) – the sentence was originally longer but it was made up with a lot of swear words, about Sasuke.

Thanks for reading. Please review.
