Naruto sighed as he walked into the mission hall annoyed by now the tenth D-rank mission and it was him picking weeds. Naruto was in his new outfit with his quiver full of arrows, his sword in its sheath, his bows on his back and he was wearing one of Yugao's extra Anbu masks. Naruto stopped after getting a few steps in the door and he was about to get another mission as Yugao was somewhere else when he heard Yugao say " Hey." Naruto turned to catch a mask so he looked at it and smirked seeing a fox Anbu mask. Naruto sighed, taking off the mask he had one to hear Yugao say " I still don't get why." Naruto shrugged when he heard Hiruzen say " I find it ironic." Naruto chuckled seeing why so he said " It is." Naruto then slid on the mask when he heard Yugao say " Were you able to get in contact with the Kyuubi?"
Naruto shaked his head to hear Hiruzen say " Naruto, I want to talk about your training." Naruto nodded, getting used to his mask to hear Hiruzen say " For the last month Yugao has trained you…" Naruto nodded making Hiruzen stop talking then said " Yea, in Taijutsu and in using my weapons." Naruto saw Hiruzen nod then heard Hiruzen say " True, do to your natural talent in archery and your main focus is swords and Taijutsu." Naruto nodded to hear Hiruzen say " Naruto do to you being Yugao's only sensei everyday for most of the day now you'll train with team seven, eight and ten." Naruto nodded to hear Yugao say " You'll be referring to me as Cat but they can refer to you as your name unless it's on a mission, including D-rank."
Naruto nodded, then said " So who's team am I doing first?" Naruto saw Hiruzen nod then heard him say " All of them, they train together everyday for a few hours. You can go with any team you want. I'm making these teams, including you, my best and I want them to be able to work with each other as one big team or a mixed team." Naruto nodded understanding then said " Let's go, Cat." Naruto heard Yugao chuckle as she placed her mask on so he smiled under his mask as he walked off.
As Naruto exited the tower he heard Yugao say " Wait." Naruto stopped facing Yugao. Naruto looked at Anbu to hear Yugao say " One of the senseis…" Naruto knew what Yugao was talking about so he said " Kakashi Hatake." Naruto saw Yugao head snap up hearing " How?" Naruto chuckled and said " Name everyone with tall silver hair who reads a small orange book." Naruto saw Yugao look up then after a few seconds heard Yugao say " Fair point." Naruto nodded, then turned to hear Yugao say " You're smarter than you let on." Naruto just stood for a few seconds then walked off in silence.
* Thirty Minutes Later *
As Naruto entered a training ground with Yugao he looked around, finding Ino Yamanaka sparring Sakura Haruno with Shikamaru Nara sparring Shino Ambrama nearby. Naruto continued looking around only seeing one more sparring match, which was Konohamaru Sarutobi the Third's grandson and Sasuke Uchiha sparring. Naruto sighed in confusion to not see more when he heard a crash. Naruto looked up at the dust so he jumped onto a tree then went to the dust. Naruto stopped to find Kiba Inuzuka, Hinata Hyuga and Choji all in another part of the training ground. As Naruto continued chuckling he saw Kiba look up then heard Kiba say " What are you laughing at." Naruto shrugged and jumped down to hear Kiba say " How are you?" Naruto just smirked when he heard Yugao say " Naruto." Naruto looked behind him hearing Kiba gasp and after a few seconds he saw Yugao toss two scrolls. Naruto grabbed them to hear Yugao say " Get started." Naruto nodded seeing they were Jutsu scrolls.
Naruto only got a few steps to hear Kiba say " You're not Naruto." Naruto sighed to hear a female voice say " Kiba-a Rem-mber Naruto-o's is a Spe-ecial-l Anbu-u and he-e must wea-ar the mask-k." Naruto nodded, then looked at the source of the voice to see Hinata Hyuga. Naruto smiled under his mask to hear another voice say " You can't be Naruto." Naruto sighed, turning around to say something to hear another voice say " You should spar someone. We don't know your skills." Naruto looked up at Kakashi Hatake, a glare forming but said " How am I sparing?" Instantly Naruto saw Sasuke walk up then heard Sasuke say " Me." Naruto chuckled coldly, anger still in him when he heard Yugao say " Naruto will be sparing me." Naruto just sighed then said " I'm not sparing anyone, I've got something to do." Naruto then walked off to some trees.
* Few Hours Later *
Naruto was leaning against a tree, his mask off as he drank some water. After finishing getting the water from the bottle he set it down to hear whimpering. Naruto looked around when he realized the sound was behind him so he stood up and grabbed his mask. After putting on his mask he walked behind his tree. Naruto stopped seeing Hinata Hyuga sitting on a rock crying. Naruto just stared for a few seconds then he looked around and did a loud fake cough. Naruto heard some sniffling and then heard Hinata say " Hey-y." Naruto looked at Hinata and nodded, then he said " Are you ok?" Naruto saw Hinata nod as she looked away so he walked forward and said " You're lying." Naruto saw Hinata look at him in shock so he said " Sorry, it's a habit." Naruto saw Hinata just looking away so he walked closer and after getting about six inches away from Hinata he said in a soft voice " Hey." Naruto saw Hinata looking at him and tears down her eyes so he said " What's wrong?"
Naruto sat down on the rock to hear Hinata say " I don't want to hurt my teammates." Naruto was confused but after a few seconds he said " Do you mean while sparing?" Naruto saw Hinata nod so he looked up and after a few seconds said " You could spare me." Naruto looked at Hinata seeing her shock so he said " I mean a clone, it's me but not really me, so you can not hold back and you don't hurt me." Naruto saw Hinata just looking at him then heard her say " Why?" Naruto shrugged looking forward and said " Truth is Cat's training is ruthless and I could use a cool down." Naruto saw Hinata nodding so he said " Also I wouldn't mind." Naruto saw Hinata nod so he stood up and said " Come on." Naruto saw Hinata nod while whipping her tears away.
* Few Days Later *
Naruto was practicing sword stances in a field when he heard a grunt. Naruto looked to his left one of his clones sparring with Hinata. Naruto watched as his clone was just defending as Hinata attacked. Naruto got out of his stance and just watched and just after a few seconds he sheathed his sword. Naruto continues watching Hinata speed up which makes his clone speed up. After a few seconds Naruto saw his clone start to attack but everyone once and a while. After a few more minutes of watching everything speeding up he said " That's enough." Naruto saw his clone stop so he walked up thinking ' I hope I'm right.' Naruto saw his clone step to the side so Naruto got into a stance and said " I want to see this." Naruto saw Hinata nervous so he said " Don't use chakra." Naruto saw Hinata nod so he just defended.
After a few minutes Naruto started to attack everyone once and a while. Naruto went for a punch to see Hinata dodge so he went for another in her gut to see Hinata grab it. Naruto went faster just attacking to hear Hinata say " Naruto." Naruto moved faster seeing Hinata match him in speed. As Naruto went for a punch in the head to see her grab it. Naruto went for another punch in the gut to see Hinata grab it then saw her jump and twist around his body. Next thing Naruto saw was himself on the ground and Hinata on top of him. Naruto just smiled and said " I knew it."
Naruto saw Hinata confused so he said " When I watched you spar my clone it looked like you were holding back reactions so I wanted to know if I was right." Naruto saw Hinata's eyes go wide then heard Hinata say " What-t." Naruto nodded, then just looked around in silence seeing no one and after a few seconds said " Can you get off of me?" Naruto saw Hinata's face go red then she saw him get off. Naruto sat up and said " So I assume that's not a part of the Gentle Fist?" Naruto saw Hinata nod then heard Hinata say " Please don't tell anyone what happened. My father doesn't like it." Naruto nodded with a smile then said " Sure." Naruto then stood up when he heard his stomach growl. Naruto chuckled embarrassed as he rubbed the back of his neck. Naruto saw Hinata just look away which made him frown a little. Before anything else could be said Naruto heard Kakashi say " Hey, my team is going to get lunch if you want to join." Naruto just looked at Kakashi and said with venom " No." Naruto stood up and started walking. Naruto got next to Kakashi when he felt Kakashi's hand on his shoulder. Naruto's head snapped at Kakashi with a glare and he then said " Let me go." Naruto saw Kakashi remove his hand so he walked off annoyed.
- Kakashi -
Kakashi sighed as he looked at Naruto who was walking off. After seeing Naruto go behind some bushes he heard Hinata say " Kakashi-i Sensei." Kakashi looked at Hinata and said " Yea." Kakashi saw Hinata walk up then heard Hinata say " Wh-hy is-s Narut-to made at-t you-u?" Kakashi sighed then said " It's not my business." Kakashi saw Hinata nod still confused so he said " I know why but it's his story." Kakashi saw Hinata nod then walk off and after a few seconds Kakashi looked forward to finding Yugao. Kakashi saw Yugao walk up and after seeing her stop a few feet away he heard Yugao say " I need to ask you something." Kakashi nodded to hear Yugao say " You are the only one I know to use a sword like Naruto's. You told me that people can channel chakra including elemental chakra." Kakashi nodded then said " Yea and it's how it sounds. You just need to channel chakra, I don't know a lot just the basic chakra but he would need control." Kakashi saw Yugao nod then heard Yugao say " I'm going to go get lunch." Kakashi nodded and after making sure Yugao is out of hearing, Kakashi ran to a bush.

* Thirty Minutes Later *
Naruto was eating some Ichiraku ramen with his mask set to the side when he heard someone enter the ramen stand. Naruto took a couple bites then looked to his left to see who entered to find Iruka Umino." Naruto just sighed then said " You know I'm going to kill Yugao." Naruto heard Iruka chuckle so he said " What about your class?" Naruto saw Iruka look at him then heard Iruka say " I have someone take my place." Naruto nodded looking at his food to hear Iruka say " So…" Naruto sighed then said " What did Yugao tell you?" Naruto heard Iruka chuckle then heard Iruka say " Not much." Naruto nodded a bit then got to talking."
* That Night *
Naruto groaned as he slowly pushed himself up. Naruto looked around to find himself in a hallway with the floor wet but he didn't feel wet. Naruto looked around to see bricks and pipes. Naruto continued looking around thinking ' What the hell, I just fell asleep.' Naruto continued looking around when he heard a voice say " My host finally came to visit." Naruto looked around for a few seconds then thought ' My mindscape.' Naruto sighed then walked through the hall and after a couple of minutes he entered a huge room. Naruto looked around to see a huge cage so he said " Kyuubi?" Naruto saw a huge fox appear from the shadow but he walked up and said " I…" Naruto was interrupted by the Kyuubi saying " No." Naruto just looked at the Kyuubi and said " You don't even know what I was going to say." Naruto heard the Kyuubi chuckle then heard the Kyuubi say " I already know the deal."
Naruto saw the Kyuubi lay down, closing his eyes, so he said " How do I get out of here?" Naruto saw the Kyuubi open an eye then heard the Kyuubi say " What, you're not going to demand my power?" Naruto shook his head and said with a grin " No as I think you already agree." Naruto heard the Kyuubi chuckle then heard the Kyuubi say " How?" Naruto smirked and said " If you knew my deal you would know I want you to willingly give me your power and I would only use it as a last resort. Thing is if I die you die and you don't want that." Naruto saw the Kyuubi close his single open eye then heard Kyuubi say " Fair point brat." Naruto nodded and said, " But my deal is changing." Naruto saw the Kyuubi open a single eye again so he said " Once a day everyday I want you to willingly give me your power." Naruto saw the Kyuubi move his head up, opening his second eye, then heard the Kyuubi say " Why?" Naruto nodded and said " Because this gives me trust. If you do this I will do something for you." Naruto heard the Kyuubi smirk then heard the Kyuubi say " How?" Naruto sighed then said " This is my mind." Naruto then closed his eyes and after a few seconds he opened them to see a field and a blue sky." Naruto saw the Kyuubi look around so he said " If you willingly give me your power every day for two weeks I will think of anyone you want to fight." Naruto saw the Kyuubi nod so he smiled.
