Chapter 5: Released Secrets.

"Focus Naruto-kun! The leaf wont cut with that amount of chakra your releasing." Arashi scolded sagely.

"yea, yea, give me a break sensei. I'm trying."

Its been one week since Arashi started training Naruto, and naruto just has one word to describe him: weird. He can be nice one minute and be tough the next. Its a weird combination to have but Naruto has enough confidence to say that it doesnt bother him in the least. He was still so excited about having himself as a sensie...albeit, an older version of himself. And then there is the fact that his older self is a timetraveler.

"Yatta! I did it, I did it" came Naruto's cheers.

'Great job Naruto, I knew you had it in you' though Arashi with a proud smile on his face.

"I think you deserve a reward, Naruto-kun!"

"Oh kick-ass!"

"Naruto-kun, what did i say about swearing?"

Naruto sighed... "fine, I'm sorry" he said calmly.

"Good, now close your eyes and hold your hands out."

After what felt like hours of waiting, Naruto felt two things on his hands. The one in his left was pretty light, while the one on the right was pretty heavy.

"You can open your eyes now, Naruto-kun" came Arashi's soft voice.

Naruto coudn't wait any longer and opened his eyes. He was so suprised at what he saw. In his left hand was a transperent box that seemed to have this beautiful necklace. However, looking at the gift in his right hand nearly made his eyes fall out of their sockets. He couldnt believe it. Arashi got him a sword.

"you..., you...! Thank you Arashi sensei!" Sreamed Naruto while tackling his sensei to the ground.

"now, now, its no problem Naruto-kun" he replied happily."

"The Necklace in your left hand was a gift that was given to me back when I was a little above your age. There is only two of them in existence, now that I've altered the time/space stream. It was the Shodai Hokage's necklace originally, but after his death, his grandaughter Tsunade Senju recieved it. When i had to bring Tsunade back to the village in my original time, she lost a bet to me and I ended up winning her necklace." Arashi recalled.

"Now, that sword belongs your father. It is known as the Tamashī no gureizā, or the Soul Grazer in other words.'

Arashi gave him a couple of minutes to let that sink in...

"S-so, can you tell me who my parents are, sensei?

Arashi sighed. 'I'll just tell him now so he doesnt carry that burden on his shoulders.'

'here goes nothing'

"Okay, but you have to never tell anyone."

Looking back to Naruto, he saw the pre-teen nod his head frivolously.

"Your father is Minato Namikaze, the Yondaime hokage. Your mother is know as konoha's red death, her name is Kushina Uzumaki..."

Naruto couldn't believe his ears. The man he always admired and respected the most was his Father. He was so happy but also really angry because he wondered why his parents sealed the kyuubi into him and ruined his life. If he was to descirbe this feeling, he would say it's bitter sweet. And then there was his mother... he had heard of Konoha's Red Death before and he knew how feared she was throughout the 5 Elemental Countries. It was said she could rival the Yondaime in kenjustu prowess.

"well, its getting late. We should get home for the day and continue tomorrow." Arashi suggested

..

"Yeah, lets go." whispered the tired pre-teen.

When they reached Naruto's apartment, the wasted no time in preparing for bed. Arashi slept on the spare fuuton as usual while, Naruto got the bed since it IS his apartment.

Soon, with the tranquility of the night, both blondes soon succumbed to some well deserved sleep.
