Another different thing from the original!
I can't believe I forgot to post this chapter earlier
I still don't know how this story is going to play out but I do have an idea of how I want it to end
Anyways let's begin!
I don't own Naruto
HIDDEN LEGACY
Naruto was taking Haruto for a walk in a remote part of the village they have never been before, "this place looks abandoned yet so oddly familiar" Naruto said as he looked around.
While walking around, Naruto saw an abandoned looking house, it was surrounded in walls and had the same red swirl that all the ninja vests have.
"What is this place?" Naruto pondered as he looked at it from afar.
As they grew closer, Naruto's vision grew fuzzy and static, he closed his eyes to try to fix it but when he opened them he saw a girl with red hair and a man with yellow hair holding hands and walking to a refurbished version of the house they were looking at. Their backs were turned at Naruto which didn't allow him to see their faces.
"What is this?" Naruto thought.
As Naruto looked around he saw the whole section they were in looked livelier.
"What happened?" Naruto wondered.
As he went back to looking at the pair in front of him but the house went back to looking abandoned and the couple was gone.
"Wait what?"
Haruto looked up at Naruto since he was on the ground, "why'd you stop?" Haruto barked confused.
"You didn't see them? The whole area was lively, filled with people, and that house . . . it feels oddly familiar" Naruto said, still not taking his eyes off the house where the two people were.
"You're crazy" Haruto said as he looked back forward.
"Shut up! let's just go inside!" Naruto said as he rushed toward the house.
Haruto sighed and started to walk towards the house.
When they went to the gate, it seemed that there was a chakra requirement to open the gate.
"Great, now we can't get in" Haruto barked as he looked around.
Naruto stairs confused at Haruto, "what do you mean? All it needs is chakra right?" Naruto asked while putting his chakra into the lock.
"Well yeah but you would need a-" Haruto was saying until a clicking noise interrupted him.
"Sweet it opened!" Naruto said with excitement, "come on! Let's go explore!" Naruto said as he started to run to the house.
The house itself was surrounded by a garden that was now dead, it looked to have been made of wood and had a gentle sloping tiled roof. It had a few paper lanterns and beams with intricate wooden carvings.
The building looked like it was hit by an explosive judging by a large hole in the top.
As they grew closer to the door they saw another red swirl, "I wonder what this means anyways" Naruto said.
"It's on all of the vests and on this building, maybe it was the original symbol of the hidden leaf" Haruto barked while studying the swirl.
As they opened the door they greeted into a living room with tatami mats and a small table, the other rooms were blocked off with sliding doors but everything was trashed.
"This place seems . . . cozy" Haruto barked while tilting his head.
Naruto went to one of the picture frames and it showed a kid with silver hair and a mask on, he had three other people around him but only their torsos showed.
"I wonder if he was the owner of this house?" Naruto said while looking at the picture.
"Let me see!" Naruto barked while putting his paws on the table in order to stand.
Naruto showed him the picture and Haruto analyzed it, "hmm . . . who spat in his drink?" Haruto joked after seeing his expressionless face.
As they looked around, all the pictures were either burnt or they only showed torso with blue clothes or green clothes and an apron.
"Maybe it was whoever these two were" Haruto barked at one of the pictures that showed two people but still their faces were destroyed with only a bit of red hair showing.
As Naruto looked at it he remembered what he saw a few moments earlier.
"Yeah maybe" Naruto said in a weirdly empty voice.
They then went into the next room which was a small kitchen.
"A kitchen? Not much to get from here" Haruto said as he was turning back.
Naruto stayed and looked around, he saw another picture frame that was still on the wall.
"Hey Haruto, check this out!" Naruto said as he ran to the picture.
He took it off the wall and looked at it.
The picture was of an old man with red lines going down from his eyes, he had a big smile and had one eye closed and long white, spiky hair. His red, sleeveless vest flowing in the wind along with his hair. A shining headband with the Kanji for oil on it.
"You think he's still alive?" Haruto barked with a tilt of his head.
"He's probably a skeleton by now, who knows?" Naruto replied as he started to walk away from the picture.
They then went into another room which had a large bed and a sort of study.
"Check out these scrolls!" Naruto said as he ran to the study, Haruto closely followed.
"Let's see, this one has a red brim so maybe it's good" Naruto said as he unrolled the scroll.
"Scroll of the Uzumaki Kenjutsu Style?" Naruto read out loud.
"Uzumaki Kenjutsu? Does that mean your family was good with swords? Wait does that mean that this is your family's house or does someone just have it?" Haruto barked while looking around.
"I don't know but I'll keep reading, 'The Uzumaki Kenjutsu Style is the traditional sword style used by the Uzumaki Clan?! It uses the Uzumaki specialty, seals, in order to nullify any ranged Jutsu depending on the amount of chakra used on the seal'" Naruto finished reading.
"So you're part of a clan! And their Kenjutsu Style sounds powerful!" Haruto said with a happy bark.
"Yeah! I wonder if I can learn it? But . . . if I had a clan then where are they?" Naruto wondered.
"Good point, especially if they're as powerful as the scroll says" Haruto barked while looking up at Naruto.
"Well whatever, I'll be taking this though, technically it is mine" Naruto said as he rolled up the scroll while Haruto was looking at other scrolls.
"I wish I had the seals though, then I can fully use the sword style" Naruto said while putting the scroll in his pocket, most of it sticking out.
Naruto then started dragging a scroll with his teeth, "you mean these seals?" Haruto barked, showing off the scroll.
"You found them?!" Naruto was surprised that what he needed was there too.
"Yeah! I wonder just who lived here?" Haruto barked while looking at the walls.
"Yeah, well anyways we should keep looking around" Naruto said while putting the other scroll in his pocket.
"Right!" Haruto barked while jumping up to Naruto's head.
Naruto then slid open another room, it had a crib and untouched baby toys.
"A baby room?" Naruto thought to himself.
"Hey what's that weird manikin?" Naruto barked while pointing his nose to a manikin with extended shoulders.
"Weird" Naruto said with a grimace.
As they properly looked around, one thing stood out.
"A kunai? Why is there a kunai in a child's room?" Naruto asked themselves.
The kinai had three sharp blades on it and a wooden handle with four kanji seals on it.
"I wonder what it says" Naruto thought.
"Should we take it?" Haruto barked.
"Umm...why not?" Naruto said as he grabbed the special kunai.
"Welp let's get out of here" Naruto said as he turned for the door.
"Agreed, what if this place is haunted" Haruto said as he also turned for the door.
Naruto then got a shiver down his spine as he remembered the couple. "Let's get out of here!" Naruto shouted as he ran for the door.
When they returned to the apartment they were panting from the run.
"Alright . . . let's take a look at these scrolls" Naruto said while catching his breath.
He then took out the scrolls and played them on the table.
"Do you think you'll be able to even learn this?" Haruto barked while tilting his head.
"I hope so, it would be a waste for these to not teach me something" Naruto said as he rolled open the scroll of Uzumaki Seals.
As he scanned through the scroll he realized something, "I don't want to read this, it's too long and boring" Naruto said as he slid the scroll away and played his head.
Haruto then jumped up to where Naruto's head was laying, "We didn't just come running for you to say you're not going to read it!" Haruto barked while biting Naruto's ear and pulling on it.
Naruto started yelling in pain and shot up, "Stop already! I know I know, alright let's see" Naruto said as he read through the scroll.
"Let's see, a seal of jutsu absorption? That's the one the Kenjutsu scroll mentioned isn't it?" Naruto thought.
"What? What did you find?" Haruto barked as he looked at the scroll.
"Look, it's the seal that the sword scroll talked about, it's supposed to take in any jutsu!" Naruto said with a look of amazement.
"So if you learn that then you can use the fighting style?" Haruto asked.
"I think so, I'm going to become the Hokage in no time!" Naruto shouted.
3 minutes later
"I don't wanna do this anymore" Naruto said while spread out on the floor.
"Come on! It's just reading!" Haruto barked.
"That's easy for you to say! You can't even read!" Naruto yelled back.
Haruto stared at Naruto with a blank expression, "that's fair, So what are you going to do now?" Haruto asked while spreading himself out on the floor.
"I'll leave it for later, who knows when I'll need it" Naruto said as he closed his eyes and looked to the side and slowly fell asleep.
When the genin exams came again, Naruto failed them.
"I should have practiced" Naruto said with wavy anime tears rolling down his face.
Poor Naruto :(
But then again I wonder when he'll learn how to use the Kenjutsu style and Fuinjutsu
Anyways this is pretty long since I had a lot more time but I also had to do some break cleaning
but yeah, I don't own Naruto and probably never will
