At the tender age of three, Naruto finds something that will change his life forever.

-Team Assignment Meeting-

Naruto fiddled with his camera with a frown, he really needed to get something new out soon, or else those fangirls would hunt him down and use him as a battering ram to get into the Uchiha's clan grounds. But Sasuke had gotten better at avoiding him, after the several years of being spied upon did wonders for the last Uchiha's detection abilities.

It amazed Naruto that Sasuke had had such difficulties still, after all the blonde was doing all but screaming his location. It didn't help that Naruto had even taken to directing the Uchiha in a soothing and gentle voice. "Come on Sasuke, you're a tragic hero and want to gain the skills and power to defeat your older brother... With an army of fangirls it would be easy..."

"No, I will do it on my own..." Sasuke snarled back, facing the completely wrong direction again.

"Sasuke, I'm behind you..." Naruto groaned as he focused on the survivor's face. "Just get a few of them trained up, and you'd have the lethalist army at your beck and call..."

"Come on, just one or two girls..." Naruto teased after Sasuke continued to ignore him. "How about Sakura and Ino? They would be a good complement to each other..."

""Fine, If they're on my team, I'll train with them..." Sasuke growled. "Now will you just shut up?"

"Sure!" Naruto answered with a huge grin on his face.

It was at this moment that Iruka came in, ignoring Naruto as he took up a filming position next to his desk. Without further ado, the teacher unraveled the team assignment scroll, and sighed as though he'd read it off at least 100,000 times before. "Team Seven, you are Sakura Haruno, Ino Yamanaka, and Sasuke Uchiha."

The look of abject terror on Sasuke's face would forever be held captive in the video Naruto was shooting. "Perfect Sasuke, now just give each of them a pat on the shoulder..."

Sasuke's eye began twitching as the girls all gushed over their success at getting the Uchiha on their team. Hesitantly the prodigy lifted his hands and patted the girls lightly on their shoulders. "Looks like we'll be working together... Hope I don't push you too hard..."

Naruto smirked as he continued filming. It was odd, but even in his day-glo orange jumpsuit and carrying around a camera, no one noticed him, save Sasuke Uchiha. When the survivor talked to him, everyone either chose to ignore him, or just assumed he was mimicking a jounin, and going insane.

As far as everyone in Konoha, save Sasuke, were concerned, Naruto Uzumaki had simply vanished one day. Actually, that wasn't exactly true... there were four others that noticed the blonde, but didn't approach him. One was Iruka Umino, who paid for his meals at Ichiraku's occasionally. Another was the Third Hokage, who had accepted Naruto's choice to become a movie maker, and trained him in stealth. He had never thought just how badly that would turn out.

The last two weren't much of a surprise, as they were both from the Hyuuga clan. The first was Hizashi Hyuuga, who owed Naruto his life. If it hadn't been for the boy wandering around and filming the kidnapping of Hinata by Cloud ninjas, he would have had to sacrifice his life to prevent war. From that day on, he and his son Neji had kept a close watch on Naruto. Neji still needed a bit of help finding him without his Byakugan activated though, so he doesn't count.

The last person able to constantly spot Naruto was classified as the worst Hyuuga, despite being the heiress. Hinata had always felt a fondness for Naruto after he saved her uncle, and that fondness brought out the maternal side of the shy girl, providing the budding film maker with meals now and then. After a few years, it had turned to a different kind of love, and try as she might, she just couldn't figure out how to express it to the blonde.

-----------------

Basic idea, is that Naruto at the age of three decides he wants to be a director/camera man. And the change to the Naruto world is dramatic.
