Mt. Oinari

"Sasuke, I'm at point B," Sasuke report.

"Sakura at point C," Sakura reported.

"Naruto at point A," I report.

All three of us were reporting to Kakashi-sensei through our communicators.

"Okay squad 7," Kakashi said.

Then the target moved away from them.

"The target has move go after it," Kakashi ordered.

Sasuke Sakura and I ran after our target which was the fire lord's wife's cat.

We moved tree to tree to it.

"What's your distance from it?" Kakashi asked.

"5 meters," I answered, "I'm ready just given us the signal."

"I'm ready two," Sasuke responded.

"Me two," Sakura finished.

"Okay," Kakashi said pausing a bit, "Now."

We jumped after the cat. I grabbed it and kept it in my hands as it tried to scratch me.

"Have you identified the target?" Kakashi asked.

"Yes, ribbon on left ear," Sasuke reported.

"Right lost cat Torah found," Kakashi answered.


At the place missions are assigned we watch as the fire lord's wife hugged Torah to death.

"No wander why it ran away," Sakura said.

"I thought I had a hard time," I thought.

"Okay, the next mission for team 7," Minato said checking the list, "You're in luck, the chief of Mt. Oinari has requested for Naruto's team exactly."

"Oh?" I responded.

"Don't get excited Naruto, the travel makes it a C-Rank mission," Minato said, "A friend of Naruto's has a painting that he's giving to the village as gift to the chief. Once there, the rest of the mission is minor chores and everything the chief needs help with untill the week is up."

Kakashi took the scroll and thanked his sensei.

We were to meet him tomorrow at 7 with no scooter.


I walked home deciding that I should leave my scooter at the Hyuga mansion while I'm gone.

Only problem was that Neji and Hinata was gone on missions so I had to check with Hiashi.


The next day we gathered at the gate. I had my bag full of my usual.

"Naruto lead the way," Kakashi ordered.

I nodded and walked with everyone fallowing me.

It felt odd coming home after being gone this long.

"By the way Naruto how come you couldn't become a ninja at Mt. Oinari?" Sakura asked.

"Because the only ones who knew ninjutsu are either retired or dead, they're not one of the hidden villages," I answered.

"Not all villages are inhabited by ninjas," Kakashi said.

"So basically this village is boring," Sasuke said.

"Yeah which is why I suggest finding your own fun while there," I said.


After a long journey we made it the city outside the village.

"Over here guys," I said leading them to Kuroda's apartment.

"Kuroda, it's me Naruto," I shouted knocking on the door.

When Kuroda finally opened the door I covered my nose from the strong.

"Sorry Naruto, I've been adding the last bit to the painting last night," Kuroda said laughing.

"Guys this is an old friend of mine, and one of the most famous artist, Kuroda," I introduced while still holding my nose, "Kuroda this is my sensei, Kakashi Hatake. And my teammates Sasuke Uchiha and Sakura Haruno."

"So lucky that I don't have Naruto's sense of smell," Sasuke and Sakura thought.

"I should teach Naruto how to block his sensitive sense of smell so that this doesn't happen twice," Kakashi thought.

We helped Kuroda get everything set up for the trip to Mt. Oinari.

"Once at Mt. Oinari we can start training," Kakashi said, "Starting with chakra control training."

"Yes sir," we responded.

"So Naruto, you never told us much about your father," Sakura said.

"Well actually I hardly knew him; I was just a pup when he died," I explained, "I was raised by humans after all."

"You don't know how lucky you are to be raised by humans Naruto," Kakashi thought referring to the other tailed beast demons.


The next day we headed to Mt. Oinari with the painting.

I was in charge of guiding us to the village.

Luckily it was a short trip in comparison to the trip from the leaf village.


"Naruto this is where you were raised?" Sakura asked the moment we entered.

"Yeah, wasn't all the best of memories," I said referring to the old pranks I pulled and got in trouble for.


I took them to the chief's office.

"Thanks again for this," the old man told Kuroda.

"Ah no problem at all," Kuroda said as he left.

Then the chief turned to me.

"It been along time Naruto, last time I saw you, you had goggles on instead of that headband," he told me.

"Yeah, I grown since you last saw me," I said laughing.

"Sir, this is a report on Naruto's progress from the 4th Hokage," Kakashi said handing the chief a scroll.

"Thank you Kakashi, as for this mission you 4 are free to move amongst this village between the work I have for you," the old man said.

I yawned as things were getting boring.

Chief tossed the keys to my old place to me.

"You'll be staying at your teammate's old place," he told us.


I escorted them to my apartment.

Luckily there were a spare room Sakura could use to sleep in as Kakashi-sensei Sasuke and I shared my old room.

"Serious Naruto, tell us about your father," Sakura said, "You have to know something."

"Only that he was a dangerous tailed beast out there. It took 9 men to kill him and only one of them lived," I said, "But from what I understood, before I met Kuroda I was kind of like him."

"That's kind of scary," Sakura responded.


The next day we were stuck with gardening the chief's garden.

Once again Sasuke Sakura and I were stuck doing the work as Kakashi-sensei watch us.

After work I took them to the nearest forest on Kakashi's request.

We were to climb a tree with only our feet using chakra.


It been like that the next few days even though Sakura mastered it on the first day.

Sasuke and I fallowed as we raced to the top.


On the day we were going home I used one of my tails to swing upside down from the branch.

I was bored to death.

Kakashi-sensei helped me use my chakra to decrease my sense of smell to one of a human.

"Hey tails, its time to go home," Sasuke shouted at me.

"I'm coming already," I responded.

My tail disappeared as I fall and landed on my feet.

"Naruto behave and don't the Hokage a reason to hate you," the chief said.

"I know, I know," I said rather annoyed.

It was like the first time I left all over again.

"We better be on our way," Kakashi said.

"By old man see you the next time you need us," I shouted as we headed home.


A/N: Since most of Naruto's Different Life will be based off the show I decided to have this story based off the story from the comic series. Good news is I think I'm finally getting the hang of P.O.V. of the characters. Not the best ending though, but wait until the land of waves mission. This will be interesting.
