So he hangs around learnin' and stuff until he is confronted by a couple of Anbu and later Anko! Now! TO THE STORY!

Chapter 4: Child of Prophecy

"I, Mitarashi-san, am the Oracle. And I know a great many things."

Anko looked at him for a few seconds. Not entirely sure of what to make of the fool she is facing. "Sooo, what does that mean?" she asked. Cole looked back up to her making eye contact with her for a few seconds before turning around and saying, "It means, I'm not into fighting for no reason...bye!" Cole then channeled chakra into his feet and made a hasty retreat into the forest.

It took a second for Anko to register what had just happened before she started chasing him screaming, "GET YOUR ASS BACK HERE MOTHER FUCKER! NOBODY JUST TURNS THEIR BACK ON ME AND RUNS IN THE MIDDLE OF A FIGHT!" This however only made Cole run a bit fast as he was trying to escape the enraged kunoichi. "Shit she's fast," Cole thought. "Plus she knows the forest better than I do...I don't want to fight her, or have to resort to the Rinnegan...this is going to be troublesome."

Anko sped after the so called 'Oracle' and was making ground until he suddenly turned right and she lost sight of him in the trees. "SHIT!" she yelled. She continued in the direction he was headed but didn't see him. She was about to keep going until she heard a twig snap behind he a few meters away. She turned and saw Cole hiding behind a bush. "FOUND YOUUUU!" She yelled as she lunged for him.

"FUCK!" Cole shouted as he was forced to kawarimi with a dead branch to escape a Sen'eijashu from Anko. Cole began to run again only to find himself back at the clearing they started in. "Well fuck me sideways," Cole mumbled right as Anko appeared in front of him. "Do well really have to fight? I haven't done anything but defend myself since I was found. I would like to be left alone."

"Too bad, the Hokage has put you on the list for capture. So unless you come quietly you will have to get your ass kicked by me. And even if you do come quietly I might still kick your ass for making me chase you!" Anko replied, clearly salty about the whole running away thing. "So why don't you take off the ugly mask of yours and fight me like a man, or I'll make you not a man." She said as she got out a kunai and licked the blade.

Cole gulped and replied by sinking into the ground. Anko stared blankly at where he was before he tried to run again. "I SWEAR GOD IF YOU'RE RUNNING AG-" she started until she was interrupted by punch directed at the back of her head she barely dodged. "This is more like it!" she said as she turned around. When she was expecting to see Oracle she was surprised to not see anyone.

Anko looked right, left and back. "He must be below me!" she said as she jumped to the safety of high branch of a tree. However to her surprise the attack didn't come from below, but when it came from above as Cole kicked her in the back. "Aahhgg!" Anko screamed as she took the heavy blow and fell from the tree landing onto the ground. She looked up to...not see anyone again. "WHAT THE FUCK! WHERE ARE YOU!"

"You said you wanted a fight," came a voice form above her. She look up to see her target floating in the air cross legged with six black orbs floating under him. "What the fuck are you!?" She yelled.

"Someone who doesn't want to fight you or anyone else from Konoha if I don't have to." Cole responded coolly. He descended until he was a couple of feet off the ground and looking straight into Anko's eyes. He then said in a playful voice, "so we done here?"

"Just who are you...I've never heard of a flying technique?" Anko asked. "Like I told you, I am the Oracle. I have come to Konoha to help raise and lead the Child of Prophecy on the right path, so that one day the Elemental Nations will finally know peace." Cole responded in a quiet and calm tone. "I do not wish to harm anyone who will do good for the future of this world and I will not harm Konoha on any way. You can take this information to your Hokage." Cole continued as he got to his feet and began to walk away. "Also," he said. "If the Hokage wants to see me, he can ask nicely himself."

With that Cole sunk back into the ground and left Anko in the forest. Anko just stood there for a moment, staring at where Oracle was before he disappeared. "Did...did he sound sad when he said he didn't want to fight anyone...did he say I was important for the future?" Anko thought in disbelief. After a couple more seconds she decided to retreat from the forest and head to the Hokage tower to report what had happened and what Oracle had said. (A/N: when Cole is not around he will be referred to as Oracle.)

. . . .

As Anko made her way back through the village she couldn't help but notice the glares. The hushed insults. The people spitting in her direction. She couldn't stand it.

She got more respect from he enemies than she did from her own village. She would have been even more bothered by it if she hadn't been thinking of a way to explain what happened to the Hokage. The only thing she got out of the encounter was that she found out where he is most likely hiding, his alias, some of his abilities, and that he claims to be in Konoha for peaceful reasons.

She wouldn't say that he had shown concern for her. More so than most of the villagers did. And she would definitely not tell the Hokage that behind the clothes he was extremely well built to the point he might invade some of her more unwanted dreams. She quickly shook her head to forget those detailed and tried to think of other things. 'Tried' being the key word. She couldn't help the slight blush as she remembered seeing him training.

Before she knew it she was at the Hokage's door where his secretary looked up at her and gave a slight glare and asked in a all too unhappy tone, "what do 'you' need?" The 'you' being stressed. Anko ignored the implied insult and said, "I have news about an intruder for Hokage-sama." The secretary looked at her for a moment and said, "Alright go on ahead, he has a meeting in five minutes so make it brief."

Anko pushed open the door and was greeted by a warm smile from Sarutobi Hiruzen, the Sandaime Hokage. "Well Anko-san, what do I owe the pleasure of seeing you for today? It isn't about the complaints I have been getting from some of the village counselors is it?" The elderly Hokage aksed. "No Hokage-sama, but, they have complained about me? I have done nothing wrong?" Anko responded, confused why the counsel would have reason to make a complaint about her. "Don't worry about it, I have already dealt with these claims and put them to rest." Hiruzen said. "Well why have you come today? It is something of importance I hope? Or have you come just to see this old man?" the Hokage laughed in good humor. "Actually Hokage-sama I have come to make a report on my finding of the intruder."

"Oh," Hiruzen replied suddenly serious. "Well lets hear it."

"Of course Hokage-sama," Anko began. "As per your instruction you wanted all Chunnin or higher nin not on duty to be on the lookout for a unknown male wearing an grey kimono and white horned mask, I was on the look for him. When I followed some tracks leading to training ground 44 I decided to follow. Once I reached the end of the tracks I found that he was based in a cave next to a stream about fifteen miles into the forest."

"Good work Anko-san," Hiruzen said. "Did you engage in your target?"

"Y-yes Hokage-sama," Anko began again, a little embarrassed that she didn't go for backup once she found him. "I engaged the target and had him until he showed that he was somehow resistant to my chakra damaging poison. We continued in a chase of cat and mouse. When I had him cornered he displayed some interesting techniques and had me at his mercy..." Anko paused and looked up to the Hokage to see his reactions, but she only saw a stoic face waiting for more details. "And then he stopped," she continued. This caused the Hokage to raise an eyebrow, but he did not interrupt. "He claimed that he didn't want to harm anyone he didn't have to, that he didn't want to hurt anyone in Konoha. He proceeded to tell me his alias, but not his actual name. He called himself the 'Oracle' and that he was here for the Child of Prophecy. And with that he left, Hokage-sama. That is the end of my report."

"Hmmm," Hiruzen thought for a second about the news he had just heard. "You said he use a 'interesting' technique?"

"Yes Hokage-sama, h-he...he was flying sir...no..more like sitting in the air. He also had six black orbs that he could move without touching and could change the shape of them at will." Anko replied. "Well, did he happen to say anything else?" Hiruzen asked. "Only one thing, that if you wanted to see him, that you should ask nicely and in person." Anko finished.

"Hmm, well then. I guess I don't have any other choice." The Hokage said as he stood from his desk. "Come Anko, show me where you found him, the sooner we get this settled the better."

"Yes Hokage-sama. But what of your meeting?" Anko asked. "Why do you think I want to leave as soon as possible." Hiruzen replied with a slight laugh.

. . . .

Cole was sitting in front of his cave waiting for his visitors to arrive. While he waited he tried something out with the Truth Seeking Balls. When he focused chakra into them and closed his eyes, he was able to see from them, like how Gaara does with his sand eye. Cole sat for a few more minutes before his visitors arrived. "Ah, Mitarashi-san. A pleasure to see you again, and with Hokage-sama no less. It seems you would like to meet me now." Cole said as he stood to greet them.

"Yes, I got the message you didn't take kindly to the fact I sent others to bring you to me," Hiruzen replied in a serious tone. "So, what did you wish to talk about Oracle-san?"

Cole thought for a moment and said, "I guess it's alright if Mitarashi-san hears this." Cole clears his throat before he continues. "To answer the question of why I am here, it is exactly what I told Mitarashi-san. I am here to watch over the Child of Prophecy, and make sure he goes down the right path."

"And who is this 'Child of Prophecy', and what is the prophecy?" Hiruzen asked. "I won't say his name out loud, as to keep his identity secret to those who don't need to know. But, I will say his father and mother were two of the bravest and loving people of this world, they will be surely missed." Cole said, his head downcast and tone calm. "But for the prophecy," He began again. "What other prophecy is there, one that takes precedence over all others. That child will be a savior, and this world will love him. I am here to make sure that he is taught all that he is needed and assist him down the right path to peace."

"Naruto..." was the first name to come to Hiruzen. "If what you say is true...why the mask, why not come to me from the get go, why hide and run from my men?" the Hokage asked in a serious tone. "Because I was not ready for my presence to be known. I hoped to help the boy without anyone knowing I was here so that he wouldn't be treated as a savior, but as a person. And so I could look over the situation and spend the few years before I show myself to him preparing my self for the future to come." Cole replied. "The future we are headed to is not one for the unprepared, it is not a pretty one."

"And how would you know what the future holds?" the Hokage asked. "Why, Hokage-sama, I am the Oracle! I bring prophecy and knowledge, I bring the keys to a fortunate future. I know the future because I am the Oracle, and I know a great many things." Cole replied doing his deep bow. "One last question," Hiruzen said. "You still haven't told me what's with the mask?"

"Oh, if you wanted to see behind the mask all you needed to do was ask." Cole replied as he removed his mask.

Anko didn't know what to think. Future seeing, prophecy, and then his face. It...it was pretty plain. Somewhat high cheekbones, a few freckles, a small scar on the bridge of his nose. But that's where the normality ended. His eye's were what was strange. The were a light purple with a small Iris and a ripple pattern. She didn't know what to make of them until she heard Hiruzen take a sharp breath in and say, "T-the Rinnegan!?"

"How very observant of you Hokage-sama. Yes, I posses the legendary Rinnegan, the eyes of the Rikkudou Sennin himself." Cole replied. "Hokage-sama, what is the Rinnegan?" Anko asked. She had never seen Hiruzen react like this, he was wide eyed and starting to sweat a little. He almost looked afraid. "That, Anko-san, is the ultimate form of doujutsu. Even greater than the Sharingan or Byakugan. The eyes of the Rikkudou Sennin, an ancient shinobi who was thought to be the inventor of ninjutsu." He replied, exasperated and still staring at Oracles eyes. "We are very lucky to not have him an enemy, Anko-san, because if he was he would destroy this village before we knew what hit us."

"I trust you Oracle-san. I will order my nin to stop the search for you and give an order for no one to disturb your endeavors." the Hokage said with a slight bow before he turned to leave. Anko was speechless, she had never seen Hiruzen act like this, he was genuinely afraid of this kid, someone she was able to push in battle. "Hokage-sama! You can't serious!? We're just going to let him do as he pleases?"

"That is exactly what we will do Anko-san!" the Hokage snapped at her. Anko flinched, knowing better than to question her Hokage. "But, if he so even attempts to step out of line I will have the entire Shinobi force of Konoha on his hide. Do you hear me Oracle-san?" Hiruzen demanded. "Loud and clear Hokage-sama," Cole replied. With that Hiruzen left the forest and made his way to the Hokage Tower. When he got to the tower the only thing on his mind was how much paper work this whole ordeal would make he have to go through. "Oh Kami what have I done..." he mumbled as he began to weep anime tears.

. . . .

Back in the forest Anko continued to glare at Cole as he began to resume his training. "You know Mitarashi-san, if you keep looking at me like that your face will get stuck like that." Cole said between tries at forming a new weapon with his creation of all things. So far the only thing he was able to form were his Truth Seeking Balls and chakra receiver rods. But now he was trying to make a blade out of the rods for a personal weapon he was trying to make.

"Anko..." She mumbled in reply to Cole's comment. "Excuse me?" he said. "Anko, call me Anko. I feel weird when people call me Mitarashi." She finished with a slight blush but still keeping her glare up. Cole looked at her and laughed a bit, "Alright, should I call you Anko-san or Anko-chan?" he finished with a mischievous grin that made Anko blush a little harder but she kept her composure and went off on him.

"DON'T CALL ME EITHER! JUST ANKO!" she fumed. "Alright, alright, whatever you say Anko-chan." Cole replied with a even bigger grin and laughing a bit. She was about to lunge at him for the tease but was stopped when he yelled, "Oh, I think I got it!"

"Got what? A brain, because I can help remove that." Anko said venomously. "Just watch," Cole said before he began to concentrate on his hands. A small ripple in the air formed between his palms and something began to form. Anko was enthralled by the process. She was so intent at looking at it she was almost skewered by the blade that formed out of the air. "HOLY SHIT! WHAT THE HELL!?" she yelled as she backed away. "Ha! It worked!" Cole exclaimed as he looked over the weapon he formed.

It was a sword made of pure black metal. The handle was short and made for single handed use. The blade however was a single edge curved blade that was three feet long, two feet wide and a inch thick. It looked like an over sized cleaver. "Little heavy on the edge but perfect for what I need it for," Cole said to himself as he gave it a couple test swings.

Anko gaped at the boy she just saw make something out of nothing. "W-w-w...H-how in the fuck did you do that!?" She asked frantically. "Oh," Cole began as he looked back to Anko. "It is a part of the power of the Rinnegan. The Creation Of All Things...here watch." Cole said as he made a chakra receiver rod and a Truth Seeking Ball.

Anko just continued to look at him before she got out of her stupor. She looked at him with stars in her eyes, "What else can you do?" Cole thought for a moment if it would be okay to show her his other abilities. He ended up showing off a little, liking the sudden admiration.

He showed her the Deva path by using Bansho Tennin to bring a scroll to himself. He also showed the Asura path by forming a chakra cannon out of one of his fingers.

"That is so cool!" Anko exclaimed watching his flesh change into metal and machine. "I know right," Cole said as he shot a blast of chakra at a rock turning it to ruble.

. . . .

Two months pass. Anko still comes by the cave just about everyday she isn't on duty. She would bring dango to share with Oracle and just hang around and give him pointers on certain jutsu.

Cole enjoyed having Anko around. She was fun to tease and a big help with learning jutsu and alleviating boredom. With her around he learned the Katon: Karyu Endan (Fire Release: Fire Dragon Flame Bullet) in about a week, and proceeded to improve his skill with the Asura path. He also gave a name to his cleaver. He called it the Teki no Hocho (Foe Cleaver). He was also learning how to use a few wind jutsu to combine with his fire types. He had Futon: Daitoppa (Wind Release: Great Breakthrough) mastered in about a day and was in the middle of learning Futon: Renkudan (Wind Release: Drilling Air Bullet) when his day was interrupted by a new face. Or mask.

The newcomer stood before Cole and said, "Danzo-sama has requested a meeting Oracle-san."
