Important A/N Please Read (I know its long): I received a message
from a reader with a complaint with the pairing of the story who brought up
some good points. I want to reassure everyone that I do not intend to change
the pairing since many of you have said you love it. I do want everyone to know
I am not trying to objectify women. What I am trying to do is give a different
outlook on a different society with different morals.
In the beginning I was trying to make Naruto look a bit like a womanizer but
that was because he was young and just coming into his hormones. I wanted to
show that as he got older and matured his views on women become more
respectful.
I also tried to convey that demon society is a bit different than humans. I
compare demon relationships like that of a lion's pride. A demon has different
morals than that of a human. In order to understand this concept you need to
look at it from a more primitive animalistic stand point like a lion. Then I
try to combine this concept with Naruto's caring personality and human morals.
This makes a harem with a male who actually cares for his mates instead of just
seeing them as sex toys. I will joke around a bit about Kyuubi being a bit of a
vixen now that she has discovered the pleasures of sex, but only occasionally.
The reason Kyuubi was a virgin is because like I already stated, when a
female demon has sex with a male, they bond themselves to them for life and
vice versa. I have not gotten to the point in the story to describe this next
part but the reason there is so few male demons and so many female is because
male demons are very territorial and they often kill each other. This leaves
many female demons and only a few males. Therefore a male takes on many mates.
Notice how I always refer to them as mates and not wives. Kyuubi was raised
with this knowledge so she has nothing against Naruto having multiple partners.
She even encourages it so Naruto is not raped by any female demons and
forcefully bonded.
The mating ritual is just for a demon to choose a human to mate with. Many
demons would not do this because they see humans as beneath them. Naruto knew
what he was getting himself into and if that meant he had to have more than one
mate to be with Kyuubi then so be it. Naruto was raised with human morals so he
is not thrilled with this but over time he will adapt and accept it with
Kyuubi's prodding.
I realize it will be hard to write a harem this size but I am trying really
hard to make it work. If I chose to get rid of the harem now I would lose half
of my readers. I have received e-mails not to change the pairing even under
pain of death lol.
I am sorry that this may not be exactly what some of you wanted in a story
but I have been reading fanfics for quite some time. I eventually got tired of
never finding a story exactly the way I wanted it so I decided to write one.
This is my ideal story and I don't see the pairing changing any. I love that
some of you voice your opinion because it gives me a chance to talk about the
story and explain my reasoning. I do hope whoever has issues with the story
continues to read it because I enjoy hearing your views, even if you say it
sucks. When someone tells me something they don't like I try to make it better
without ruining it for everyone else. Currently people against the harem are in
the minority that do not like the harem, actually I have only received one
objection to the harem (I will not name who) and just want to let whoever else
that has anything against it know what is going on. This is one of the reasons
I respond to peoples messages. If I can convince someone who has issues with
the story to continue reading then I feel I have accomplished something as an
author. If people do quit reading because they have problems with the idea of a
harem I will completely understand, some people just can't read harem stories
no matter what the reasons are. Thanks you to who sent the message about not
liking the idea of a harem and I hope I may have clarified a few things.

Jutsu and sword techniques
Chapter 9: Hello Konoha
It had been a week since Naruto began to head to the village. Normally he
could have reached it in only a few days but Naruto decided to take his time
and relax since he was in no hurry.
Before setting out on his journey Naruto had summoned Kyuubi in her human
form to have someone to walk with as he traveled. He no longer was doing his
double training in his mindscape since there was no longer a need to. The only
reason he did so in the beginning was to be able to train in the shinobi arts
as well as his training with the sword. Now that he was no longer training with
Kenshin he could combine his training in both fields throughout the day.
Naruto would spend his day between a light training session in the morning,
walking throughout the day, and at night spending his time with Kyuubi in bed.
Today however Kyuubi was not traveling with him due to her still being
exhausted from the previous night�s activities.
This left Naruto alone to think over his plans for when he reached the
village.
Naruto planned that once he reached the village he would use a genjutsu to
make himself appear as an eleven year old version of his current self. He would
need to do this because it would cause unneeded problems if he tried going
through the academy as an eighteen year old with a bunch of eleven year olds.
Sure there were genins still who are already in their twenties who have never
been able to pass the chunin exams but as far as he knew no one had ever
entered the academy at his age.
Another thing he was sure of was that although he might hide the true extent
of his skill, he would definitely not act like some stupid immature child. That
was just something he could not bring himself to do.
Once he returned to the village he would also have to talk with the old man.
Naruto trusted the Hokage since he was one of the only three people who had
ever looked out for him. He would tell the old man everything and see what he
thought. Naruto wasn�t nervous about telling the Hokage anything he had done
since he did not regret the life he lived and instead was quite proud of it.
Once Naruto finished the academy and was assigned a team he would get rid of
his child genjutsu. Going through the academy looking like that was fine but he
would it would cause problems if he got into any fights. Plus there was not
anything anyone could do once it was official that he was a shinobi of the
leaf. The only one who could remove him was the Hokage and only with just
reason, which Naruto believed the old man would not due. This was also another
reason for telling the Hokage everything.
Naruto did not plan on staying a genin long. As soon as the chunin exams
came along he would be sure to take them in order to move up in rank. He would
then work to prove himself worthy of the title of jounin. After that his next
goal would be to complete his training his master had set for him.
As Naruto continued to contemplate his plans as he walked, he was startle by
a scream in the distance.
Thinking that someone needed help, Naruto sped off towards the source of the
scream.
When Naruto arrived he hid in the brush not wanting to go charging in
without a handle on the situation.
What Naruto saw enraged him. There were only a few things that could anger
him so quickly and rape was one of them.
There were four Iwa nins, from what he could tell, holding down a very
beaten and bruised woman with long brown hair wearing a shredded red kimono.
One was holding the woman�s arms above her head, another was holding one of her
legs, and another was holding the other leg. The fourth was just standing there
laughing as events unfolded.
There were also three more Iwa nins lying on the ground not moving, that
Naruto assumed were dead. The woman currently being held down must have taken
down three of them before she was overpowered.
The three that were now holding her were alternating between beating the
shit out of her and ripping away the rest of her dress. They had just ripped
away the last shred of her clothing when the fourth man, who Naruto now assumed
must be the leader, spoke up.
�Ok bitch, now you�re going to pay for fucking up our mission and killing
our comrades� said the leader
�After we get done fucking that little body of yours were going to take
pleasure in cutting off each and every one of your limbs. By the time were done
with you, you�re going to be begging for death� continued the leader.
The woman on the ground continued to squirm under the hold of the other men
with tears of fear in her eyes for what was about to happen to her.
Seeing the woman�s reaction, the leader just laughed.
�This is what you get slut for killing the man we were getting paid to
protect. Your going to be set as an example not to fuck with Iwa� said the man
menacingly.
By now the woman was begging for them not to do this and just kill her instead.
Not listening to her pleas the leader slowly walked over to her, undoing his
pants, and positioned himself between her legs.
Before the man had time to plunge himself into her Naruto had decided he had
seen enough.
Naruto darted out from his cover, drawing his sword, and decapitated the
leader with one swing of his blade.
The body collapsed on top of the startled woman spraying her with blood.
Not wasting time to give the other nins a chance to get up and defend
themselves, Naruto quickly killed each one with a slice each from his blade.
After wiping off his sword and sheathing it he approached the fearful woman.
�Don�t worry mam, I�m not going to hurt you, but I do think we need to get
you some medical attention� Naruto reassured the woman.
At this point the woman was so traumatized and exhausted she did the only
thing she was capable of doing, she fainted.
Sighing Naruto took off his black trench coat and wrapped it around her
naked form.
Before taking off with the woman to get help, Naruto noticed a discarded
leaf headband lying near the rest of the woman�s now ruined clothes and
realized she must be a kunoichi of Konoha.
He was only about a couple days walk from the village but because of the
woman�s condition he would have to pick up the pace.
After canceling his gravity seal, Naruto raced off at full speed carrying
the woman to Konoha.
By mid-evening Naruto arrived at the village�s gates.
The chunin guarding the gates took a defensive stance to Naruto�s sudden
arrival but upon recognizing who he was carrying the immediately rushed to his
side and asked what happened to Kurenai-san, which Naruto assumed must be her
name.
Only giving a quick response that she was attacked by Iwa nins, the chunin
had the doors open immediately for him to pass.
Naruto quickly rushed off to the hospital carrying the woman now identified
as Kurenai.
After reaching the hospital and giving a quick overview of what he saw
happen and what he suspected happened before he arrived to the nurse, Naruto
left Kurenai in the medical staffs capable hands.
Once Naruto exited the hospital a masked ANBU appeared and told Naruto the
Hokage wished to speak with him.
Upon telling the ANBU ok, he was led towards the Hokage tower.
When they arrived the ANBU went in to the Hokage�s office to announce his
arrival.
With a command to come in from the Hokage, Naruto entered.
Naruto smiled seeing the face of the old man he had not seen in so many
years.
�Welcome, I would like to first thank you for rescuing Kurenai-san. I fear that
if you had not arrived when you did, she may have not survived. If I may, I
would like to know your name� asked the Hokage not recognizing the man.
�I�m hurt Ojii-san, you mean you don�t remember me? I mean who else has
blond hair and whisker marks on their cheeks. I told you I�d be back in time to
start at the academy� said Naruto in mock hurt.
The Hokage�s expression was priceless. He just sat there gaping like a fish
out of water realizing he this man was.
�Naruto is that really you? How did you grow so fast? What happened?� The
Hokage sputtered out.
�It�s me old man and there is a lot we need to discuss� answered Naruto with
a laugh.
Over the course of the Next hour Naruto gave a brief overview of his life
after leaving the village and everything that had happened.
When Naruto was finished the Hokage was shocked into silence.
Upon recovering the Sandaime spoke up.
�Naruto let me make sure I get this right. With the help of Kyuubi you have
been training for twice as long as time has passed for the rest of us and
because of an incident with her (which Sarutobi was shocked to learn the great
Kyuubi was actually female) chakra you are now technically somewhere between
the age of 18 and 23. You have been fighting in the rebellion and had achieved the
rank of commander before it ended. You are actually Hitokiri Battousai, the
deadly man slayer who has killed over a thousand men. To top it all off you are
now Kyuubi�s mate and an actual demon. Did I leave anything out Naruto-kun?� Chuckled
the Hokage at hearing the life Naruto has lived so far.
�That�s about it old man. What I plan to do now is enter the academy by
placing a genjutsu on myself to make me look like an eleven year old of what I
look like now and once I graduate I will get rid of it since I will be an
official leaf genin under your direct command, which means the council can�t do
anything about me being older than all the other genins. As long as you don�t
mind I will be able to work my way up to the level of jounin, which my skill
level is already at, and everything will be fine. I�ll even help what ever team
I�m on by help training them if you want� replied Naruto.
�Well it sounds like you got this planned out well enough and I know you
would be a help to whatever team your placed on. I can�t see any reason to stop
you, so you have my approval. You will begin the academy in a week. I suggest
you go ahead and activate your genjutsu to give people a chance to get used to
you being back. Also I kept your old apartment ready for when you returned so
you can set up there. I�m glad your back Naruto, I�m proud of everything you
have accomplished and I know you�ll make a great shinobi� said the Hokage.
�Thanks Ojii-san, that means a lot to me. I think I better head home and get
things set up. I feel like making a special appearance at Icharuka�s for a
little romen� said Naruto
�Ok Naruto, well off you go then� said the Hokage dismissing Naruto.
Before Naruto left the office, he activated his genjutsu.
Naruto looked just like a miniature version of his current self at a tall
5�3� for the age of eleven. He still had his long blond hair in a ponytail and
still had a slightly ripped athletic figure, being only a little less toned and
muscular than his true form. He still wore his deep crimson tight fitting
t-shirt under a black jounin like vest to go along with his black cargo pants,
but he was not wearing his back and crimson lined trench coat since he had left
it with Kurenai since she would have been naked without it.
After activating the genjutsu Naruto walked home to his old apartment where
he put away everything he had kept in his storage scrolls from the base.
When he was done unpacking Naruto headed for his favorite restaurant in the
village.
Upon arriving Naruto sat down on a stool and a young woman came to take his
order.
�What can I get for you today sir� asked the woman kindly.
�Hi Ayame-chan, I�d love six miso ramen please. It�s been too long since
I�ve had any of your fathers wonderful cooking� said Naruto happily.
Naruto�s familiar tone caused Ayame to take a second look at him and when
she recognized who he was she immediately called for her father.
�Father come out here you�re never going to believe who�s here� Ayame called
to her father.
�Who is it Ayame? I was busy cleaning up back there� said Icharuka as he
walked out of the kitchen.
�What is it with people not recognizing me I�ve only been gone seven years�
said Naruto giving his old trademark foxy grin.
Upon recognizing the man now in boy form the old man smiled.
�Well if it isn�t my best customer Naruto. How have you been� asked Icharuka.
�I�ve been good. I was just ordering six miso ramen from Ayame-chan here
before she called you out here� said Naruto.
�Right I�ll get those out right away and I�ll even make the first one on the
house� said the old man heading back into the kitchen.
Naruto spent his meal eating and talking to Ayame as he tried to not go into
detail about his past.
When he was finished Naruto said good bye and paid his bill before heading
home to get some rest.
Over the course of the week word had gotten around that the demon container
was back and Naruto had to put up with their glares and mutterings of demon
once again. However now they really did have cause to call him demon even if
they didn�t know it. It no longer bothered him what people thought since he had
come to realize he could only be himself and if that was not enough for people
then it was their loss.
Something different from before though was that he had unintentionally begun
to collect a steadily growing group of fangirls around the age of what he
appeared to be. Naruto new he looked good for the age he was pretending to be
but to have little girls fawning over you was a little creepy for Naruto. He
was used to fangirls but not when they were so much younger than him. Kyuubi
could only laugh at his predicament but stopped when he threatened that he
would end their nightly activities for a month if she didn�t stop. Kyuubi had
become quite the vixen and a threat of no sex for a month shut her up real
quick.
Naruto had taken a break that week from training in order to head to the
library to learn what he could about the village�s history since he had been
gone. He also got a list of students that would be in his class and pictures to
match from the Hokage since he would not know them since he had been away from
the village for so long.
When the day finally came for him to start at the academy Naruto opted to
leave his jounin like vest at home along with his sword and wore just his
t-shirt and cargo pants in order to look more like a civilian.
Naruto arrived early in the class room and found he was the only one there
yet.
Deciding to take a seat he waited for the others to show up.
When the children began to file in he noted a few individuals who caught his
eye.
The first to enter was a boy he recognized by the name of Shino. He seemed
very much like the quiet type and just sat down not even seeming to notice
Naruto. The next to enter was a girl with dark indigo hair that Naruto
recognized as the Hyuuga Heiress, Hinata. She was also appeared to be a quiet
one, but when she met Naruto�s eyes she quickly looked away blushing and sat
down.
�Just great another fangirl for me. I can�t wait to get out of this child
disguise, maybe then all these children will stop looking at me like this.�
thought Naruto
�Come on Naru-kun, I think its sweet how you have so many little
admirers� said Kyuubi snickering.
�Just remember what I said before, you keep this up and no sex for a week�
said Naruto
Kyuubi didn�t have a reply.
The next three to enter were a group of boys Naruto recognized as Kiba,
Shikamaru, and Chouji. Naruto�s first impression was Kiba was a loud horn-dog, Chouji
was loud and loved food, and Shikamaru was loud and lazy.
The last three to enter that caught his eye was a boy and two girls who
seemed to be fighting over him.
�Looks like I�m not the only one with fangirls� thought Naruto.
Naruto recognized the boy as Sasuke, one of the last two Uchihas. To Naruto
the boy seemed to have a sense of arrogance and very moody. Naruto thought the
boy might also be gay with the way he seemed not to care for the girls
following him. Sure Naruto wasn�t interested in his own fangirls but that was
because they were too young for them. If he was a little younger he would have
jumped at the chance to go out with some of them. Now though it was just
creepy. Naruto could only think of three things to explain Sasuke�s actions. He
was either just putting on an act to get more girls to like him, he was an idiot,
or he was gay. Naruto was leaning towards the latter.
Anyways the other two girls he recognized by the names of Sakura and Ino.
They were both now fighting to sit next to Sasuke with the one named Sakura
eventually winning. Upon being defeated, Ino noticed Naruto and to his horror
she promptly forgot about the brooding Uchiha and ran to sit next to him. She
just sat there looking dreamy eyed at him.
�God damn it, how many more fangirls am I going to get� grumbled Naruto
mentally.
Naruto glanced over at the Uchiha only to see the boy smirking at him.
�Damn you Uchiha, why can�t you keep you fangirls to yourself. You just have
to pawn them off on me don�t ya� grumble Naruto even more mentally.
The class finally began when the teacher, a man named Iruka, showed up. They
spent the first day just sitting while they listened to one big lecture about
chakra and what it was. Naruto was so bored that he took a page out of Shikamaru�s
book and took a nap. Iruka woke him up once and asked him to answer the question
he just asked, but was surprised when Naruto answered it correctly after only
having to repeat the question. Naruto just went back to sleep afterwards.
Naruto spent the next few months at the academy sleeping almost as much as
Shikamaru. The class was now split into girls who were now fangirls of either
Naruto or Sasuke. Kiba would often voice his complaints about not seeing what
was so great about either of them, but would just be rewarded by a bop on the
head by a near female. Ino had lost interest in Sasuke and now sat beside him
during every class constantly asking for a date just like Sakura did with
Sasuke. Naruto had come to see Ino as a sweet girl with a lot more potential
than Sakura if she would just get over this crush she had on him. He didn�t
want to hurt her feelings but knew if she kept this up it would hurt her
progress as a ninja. Besides she was still too young for him, he just couldn�t
tell her that yet. Hinata had also continued to watch Naruto from afar but was
just to shy to do anything about it unlike Ino. Naruto really needed to find a
way to get rid of these fangirl, them fawning over him was just a waste of
their time.
Naruto had also become the number one contender to become rookie of the year
earning him Sasuke�s constant challenges. If he was bored and wanted to have a
little fun he would occasionally accept those challenges just so he could kick
the arrogant boy�s ass. Whenever he was done beating the boy up though he would
have to sit through a berating of one of Sasuke�s fangirls, usually Sakura,
until one of his own fangirls, usually Ino, shut them up. Occasionally this
would erupt into one giant cat fight among almost all the girls of the class,
much to the enjoyment of the guys.
It seemed though, no matter how many times he would beat the Uchiha up, he
would just challenge him again a week later. Naruto had now changed his opinion
of Sasuke being gay to that of him being an idiot and possibly gay.
Naruto beating the Uchiha had another affect as well; he had now become much
more liked by the males of the class when they saw him put Sasuke in his place.
Kiba had even stopped hounding him about hogging all the girls after Naruto
beat up the Uchiha, effectively becoming the boy�s role model. Naruto really
did not know what he did to what kami, but he was getting tired of all this
attention. Maybe he should have pretended to be some idiot, but then he would
probably have been stuck on the same team as the brooding bastard.
Naruto did not know how one kid could get on his nerves so much. He usually
liked kids in general.
As even more months passed Naruto had finally taken Ino up on a date but
only to set her straight on a few things. He had told her that she really
needed to stop fawning over him so much. He let her know that he thought she
could be a much better ninja if she just focused more on training than she did
on boys. He also let her know that guys found strong women much more appealing
than a girl that just followed them around all the time. The thing that finally
convinced her was that it would also make her strong enough to be able to kick
Sakura�s ass anytime she wanted. This immediately got her attention and she
took Naruto�s advice to heart.
She no longer sat next to him in class and instead found a quieter place to
sit so she could pay attention. He had already noticed a vast improvement in
her over the course of the months.
Naruto had also began to talk with Kiba more trying to give him a few
pointers in how to get girls since he realized that until he got one, Kiba
would be unable to focus completely on getting better.
Naruto had decided to try to kill to birds with one stone by sitting next to
the boy and occasionally talking him up in hopes of getting Hinata to pass on
her crush to the dog boy. Kiba seemed like a much better fit for her. Kiba had
a loud obnoxious personality that Hinata�s shy quiet one would balance out
perfectly. Naruto, however, had yet to make much progress. Maybe once Hinata
saw how old he really was she would stop trying to go after him and focus on
Kiba.
Naruto had yet to have much interaction with Shino, Shikamaru, or Chouji. He
had nothing against them he was just tired of dealing with so many children and
the ones he did converse with were enough for him to socialize with.

It was finally the last week of the academy and Naruto
couldn�t be happier. This had literally been the most boring year of his life.
He had gone everyday to the academy only to �learn� things he was already far
past in skill and knowledge. In order to make up for the waste of time Naruto
was forced to do his normal training once class was over for the day. With the
combination of everything, Naruto felt like he had no time at all to relax. It
seemed Naruto�s schedule was made up of going to the academy, training afterwards,
finding time to eat and use the restroom, then going to sleep before doing it
all over again. He hadn�t even been able to relieve Kyuubi�s urges all that
often, which she has been very unhappy about. Naruto was so frustrated that he
really felt the urge to kill something which he hadn�t done for almost a year.

During the final week Naruto sat through a number of written exams and
review sessions. He was about to go mad when the final day came for the
practical exam. When it was finally his turn to perform a simple Bushin for his
practical he ended up going overboard creating enough versions of himself to
fill the entire room. Needles to say Naruto passed with the title of rookie of
the year. This also REALLY pissed off Sasuke and somehow Sakura came up with
the idea that Naruto cheated (how do you cheat at forming enough bushins to
fill a room?).
After Naruto received his head band he decided to where it as a belt instead
of on his head like normal. Kyuubi was adamantly against him wearing it on his
head saying that she liked how his bangs came down his face and she didn�t want
some stupid headband messing it up.
Once all the exams were finished Iruka told everyone that passed to return
the next day for team assignments.
As soon as Naruto exited the academy he was confronted by an ANBU telling
him that the Hokage would like to see him and then disappeared. Curious to what
the old man could want; Naruto took off towards the Hokage tower.
Upon entering the Hokage�s office he was greeted by the old man.
�Hello Naruto I just received word that you made rookie of the year. No
surprise there huh� said the Hokage.
�Hi old man. Ya I guess after being trained by a thousand year old demon�,
at which point Kyuubi growled about him bringing up her age, �and a samurai
master, the academy was kind of boring� said Naruto.
�I have no doubt about that. Now Naruto the reason I called you here is to
give you advance warning to the team I plan to have you on. Kakashi has
personally requested you and Sasuke to be put on his team. When he heard of
your skills and being named rookie of the year he immediately requested you. He
also requested Sasuke since he will eventually have the sharingan like himself�
said the Hokage.
At this Naruto just raised an eye brow that said �are you kidding me�, but
before he could say anything the old man continued.
�I however, told him that I could not do this because it would overpower his
team and that he would just have to settle for Sasuke since the boy would need
special training once his sharingan becomes active. As this may be true, it was
not the real reason I did not want to place you on his team. For almost a year
now Yuhi Kurenai has been undergoing psychological treatment for what she had
almost experienced when you found her. She has just been cleared for a little
over a week now but I don�t believe she is ready to go back to solo jounin
missions. The doctor said that they have done all they can and that they can
think of is give her time. Kurenai however seems desperate to prove herself
worthy of the title of jounin so I have assigned her as a jounin sensei. I
would like to place you on her team and have you watch out for her on any
dangerous mission you may have to undertake. She will probably be more
comfortable once you dispel your genjutsu and she recognizes you. Ever since
you rescued her she has been asking what became of you. She even still has your
coat and says she wanted to return it to you. I would also appreciate it if you
could also help her train your fellow teammates as you suggested when you first
returned to the village� said the Hokage.
�Of course, I�d be happy to help. It was horrible what almost happened to
her. I just wish I acted sooner so she wouldn�t have had to suffer so long. I
would like to make a request for who my teammates be though� said Naruto.
�And who might they be?� asked the Hokage
�I wish to be paired with Inuzuka Kiba and Hyuuga Hinata. I can see a lot of
potential in the two of them and believe they could work well together. Hinata
has a very timid and quiet personality, while Kiba�s is loud and aggressive. I
believe that they would balance each other out and hopefully be a positive
influence on each other� said Naruto.
�I think that is a good idea. I was thinking along similar lines and think
they would work together well too. Ok, tomorrow you will be placed on team 8
with Kiba and Hinata with Kurenei as your jounin sensei. You should probably go
home and get some rest. I�m sure after the week you probably had, you could use
it� said the Hokage.
Taking that as his dismissal Naruto left the office and headed home.
When he got inside his house and made sure it was secure he summoned Kyuubi
masking his chakra in the process as not to raise any suspicion.
�Hi Naru-kun, not that I mind but why did you summon me, don�t you have
training to do?� Kyuubi asked
�Not today Kyu-chan. I decided to take the day off after the week I�ve had.
I also wanted to spend some time with you since we�ve had so little since I
started the academy� said Naruto as he gave her a hug and led her over to the
bed (no this is not turning into a lemon).
�So what did you have in mind?� asked Kyuubi suggestively as she sat
down onto the bed.
�Not that Kyu-chan or at least not right away. I wanted to know what you
thought about the team I�m being placed on.� Said Naruto earning a pout from
Kyuubi about not having sex.
�Well if you really want my opinion, I think this is about the best we
could have hoped for. You could teach your teammates a lot and create a strong
team. Plus what the Hokage said is correct; I think this Kurenai would do well
with you around. You may also want to consider her as a potential mate
depending on how she acts towards you. She would probably be very loyal to you
for what you did for her, she is very beautiful, and she must be strong if
she�s a jounin.� Kyuubi said.
�I wasn�t really thinking along those lines Kyu-chan. I mean she was very
traumatized by what happened to her and I don�t want to take advantage of her.�
Naruto said
Before Kyuubi could respond Naruto continued.
�But if she does show interest I won�t just turn her down either. Depending
on what she�s like I�ll consider it. I will also try to be as friendly as
possible to help her get over what happened.� Said Naruto.
�Ok, I guess that�s acceptable. I do think she may have taken a liking to
you. I mean she has kept your coat for almost a year. Not many people would do
that if they didn�t have a reason. It�s not even like she can ware it. She�s
like what, around 5�8�, and your 6�2�. The thing would be massive on her.� Said
Kyuubi.
�Fine, can we drop this please. How bout I scratch that little itch you�ve
had for the past week instead.� Naruto said.
At hearing this Kyuubi immediately dropped the subject. Kyuubi loved her
�special� Naruto time and she had not gotten any since before this week�s exams
began.
The rest of the day Naruto spent relieving all of Kyuubi�s needs until they
finally passed out from exhaustion.
Still not feeling sleepy though, Naruto headed out for a walk.
As Naruto was walking threw the village that night he noticed a child that
looked to be running away from someone and was carrying a rather large bag on
his back.
Having his curiosity peaked Naruto �accidentally� tripped the boy. When the
boy wasn�t looking he switched the contents of the bag, which turned out to be
a large scroll, with a log using a substitution jutsu.
After the boy ran off Naruto headed to a nearby woods to see what he had.
When Naruto opened the scroll he found that it was actually the forbidden
scroll of the leaf.
Inside were all kinds of information from kinjutsus to advanced seals.
Seeing one that really interested him Naruto quickly copied it down onto a
blank scroll he had on him as a sort of payment for stopping the theft.
When he was done he returned the scroll back to the Hokage to learn that it
was stolen by a boy who had failed the academy exams. He was told my Mizuki, a
teacher at the academy, that if the boy learned a jutsu from the scroll he
would be allowed to become a ninja. When the scroll was discovered missing a
search team was sent out. Iruka found the boy and found out what happened but
when Mizuki found them and attacked the boy was killed. Iruka was able to stall
Mizuki long enough for the ANBU to find them and effectively subdue the
traitor.
After being thanked, Naruto left and headed back to the forest to try to
learn the new jutsu.
It took him half the night but Naruto finally got it.
By the time he returned to his house Naruto was exhausted. He promptly got
into bed without waking Kyuubi and fell asleep.

The next day Naruto woke up still a little tired from last
night�s outing. Once Kyuubi returned to the mindscape, Naruto got dressed and
this time included his vest and sword. Now that he was officially a ninja there
was no reason to hide so much. Sure he wouldn�t flaunt his skills just to look
good but it no longer mattered if anyone found out about the true extent of his
skills.

After he was ready Naruto locked his apartment with a few locking seals he
had learned that Kyuubi knew and headed for the academy.
Naruto was the last to show up and just barely made it on time.
By the time he sat down Iruka walked in the door.
�Ok everybody, listen up. I will now hand out team assignments. Team 7 under
Hatake Kakashi will be Shino Aburame, Sasuke Uchiha, and Sakura Haruno.� Said Iruka.
At this point Sakura yelled out her joy at being on the same team as her
precious Sasuke-kun and told Ino to take that. Ino just ignored Sakura, no
longer having interest in the Uchiha boy.
�Team 8 under Yuhi Kurenai will be Inuzuka Kiba, Uzumaki Naruto, and Hyuuga
Hinata. Finally since team 9 is already active team 10 under Sarutobi Asuma
will be Nara Shikamaru, Akimichi Chouji, and Yamanaka Ino. Please wait
patiently until your jounin sensei arrives.� Said Iruka before leaving.
Naruto sat patiently with his team for about a half hour he already knew
Kurenai had been here since Iruka announced the team but saw no point in
ruining her fun. When Asuma showed up to collect his team though Naruto decided
they waited long enough.
�Come on guys follow me.� Said Naruto to his teammates.
Naruto then led the confused duo down towards the hidden Kurenai.
�Kurenai-sensei I�m sorry to ruin your fun but I and my teammates are
getting bored sitting around and wondered if we would get this over with� said
Naruto with a grin.
Kiba and Hinata were just about to ask Naruto why he was talking to a wall
when Kurenai dispelled the genjutsu.
�Well I am pleased that at least one of my pupils has some skill at
detecting genjutsus. Though, I kind of expected it would be the Hyuugi with
those eyes of hers� said Kurenai friendly with smile that seemed a little
forced for Naruto.
�Ok you three meet me on top of the roof and we�ll begin� said Kurenai and with
that she disappeared in a swirl of leaves.
Naruto could have done his own version of sushin but decided against showing
off.
The three of them casually took the stairs and headed up to the roof.
When they arrived they were greeted by Kurenai who was waiting on them.
�Why don�t you three get comfortable and we�ll start off with introductions.
Tell me your likes, dislikes, Hobbies, and dream.� Kurenai said.
Once everyone was comfortable Hinata spoke up.
�Why don�t you go first sensei and show us what to do� stuttered Hinata
timidly.
�Fine, my name�s Yuhi Kurenei and I�m your jounin sensei. My likes are
spending time with my friends and relaxing at the bath house. My dislikes are
perverts and people who show off. My hobbies are cooking and learning new
genjutsus. And my dream for now is to make you three the best team possible and
eventually all fellow jounins.� Said Kurenai.
�I�ll go next. My name�s Inuzuka Kiba. My likes are my animal companion Akumaru
and spending time with beautiful girls. My dislikes are arrogant bastard
know-it-alls who hog all the girls. My hobby is picking up girls. And my dream
is to become the leader of my clan and have a wife.� Said Kiba with a grin.
�Just great a horn-dog� thought Kurenai.
�I guess I�ll go next. My name is Hyuuga Hinata. My likes are nice people�,
looks over at Naruto and blushes, �My dislikes are people who look down on
others. My hobby is to learn my family�s techniques. And my dream is to combine
the main and branch families of the Hyuuga clan when I become its leader.� Said
Hinata stuttering the whole time.
�Looks like I got a lot of work ahead of me to work on that girl�s
confidence� thought Kurenai.
�That just leaves me then. My name�s Uzumaki Naruto. My likes are romen and
people who see me for me. My dislikes are arrogant people and people who hate
for no reason. My hobby is to train. And my dream is to become strong enough to
protect everyone I care about and eventually have a family.� Said Naruto.
�Now that�s ironic, the kid with the demon inside him is the most normal one
of all� thought Kurenai.
�Also now that we�re on the same team and I no longer need to hide this,
there is something I need to show you all.� Said Naruto.
After seeing everyone�s curious face, including his jounin sensei, Naruto
dispelled the jutsu covering him. He returned to his 6�2� height, his muscles
returning to there true tone and size, and his face took on its more mature
look.
Hinata immediately passed out realizing her crush was actually what looked
to be a twenty year old man. Kiba too passed out realizing his idol was a man
instead of a boy. Kurenai just stood there in disbelief seeing the man who had
saved her almost one year ago.
When Kurenai finally got over her shock, she launched herself at Naruto,
nearly knocking him over and enveloped him in a hug, crying into his should
while she kept on repeating thank you.
Naruto did the only thing he could think of and wrapped his arms around her
telling her it was alright tying to comfort the woman.
As Naruto held her, Kurenai eventually cried herself to sleep.
Deciding that Kiba and Hinata would be fine on the roof until they awoke,
Naruto sunshine Kurenai and himself back to his apartment since he did not know
where the woman lived.
Naruto carried the sleeping Kurenai over to his bed and tried to lay her
down, but when he tried to pull away the woman would not let go.
Being glad that Kyuubi was currently napping in his head, Naruto was forced
to lay down with Kurenai. The woman just seemed to snuggle up closer to Naruto,
which he didn�t even bother to fight anymore. Naruto just wrapped his arms
around her, earning a sigh from the woman, and decided to get a little rest.
Later that day Naruto awoke to find that Kurenai was still asleep and using
his chest as a pillow.
Kurenai must have noticed a change in Naruto�s breathing because a little
later she too woke up.
Not knowing where she was and not noticing the man she was using as a
pillow, Kurenai slowly sat up and looked around.
When she finally did notice Naruto she was a little shocked, but calmed down
when she verified they were both fully clothed.
�Um Naruto-kun, where are we and why are we in bed together. Its not that I
mind, you do make a rather good pillow, but I am a little curious.� Joked
Kurenai a little embarrassed at the situation she was in.
�You see, when you were kind of thanking me you fell asleep and since I
didn�t know where you lived I brought you back to my apartment to rest. When I
tried to lay you down on the bed though, you wouldn�t let go of me and since I
didn�t want to wake you I laid down beside you and kinda fell asleep too. You
don�t have to worry; I didn�t do anything inappropriate while you were asleep.�
Said Naruto.
When Kurenai remembered how she acted, she blushed and tried to apologize.
�Sorry about that I got kind of carried away, Its just that I�ve wanted to
say thank you for what you did for so long but no one had any idea what
happened to you or even who you were. I suspected the Hokage did but he
wouldn�t give me a yes or no answer about having knowledge of your identity. He
only said he was sure we�d meet again. I never thought I�d be your sensei.� Laughed
Kurenai.
�Ya about that, I�m sorry I didn�t stick around longer but I needed to hide
my true identity until I was an official ninja. I knew the council would make
an exception for the demon container to enter the academy at my age and there
was no way in hell they would just grant me the title of ninja.� Explained
Naruto
�You�re probably right about that, I just don�t know why they keep insisting
that you�re a demon just because you have a demon inside you.� Kurenai said
making Naruto a little uncomfortable.
�Oh well, not much I can do about it. So how have you been since the
incident?� asked Naruto trying to change the subject.
Realizing Naruto didn�t want to talk about his unique situation, Kurenai
took the bait for a change of subject.
�I�m better, I still have little incidents once in awhile, but I can at
least stand to be around other men now. In the beginning, the mere presence of
a guy scarred me. That was one of the reasons me and Asuma broke up, he just
couldn�t understand I needed my space. You�re actually the first guy I feel at
peace around. If I woke up next to any other guy in bed I would probably had a
panic attack. I�m just glad I had my friend Anko to keep me company. She made
sure to keep the guys away while I was recovering; I think she actually had fun
scarring any guy that got near me.� Laughed Kurenai a little embarrassed at her
problem.
�That�s completely normal Kurenai-sensei. After what you almost went through
almost anyone would have your problem.� Reassured Naruto.
�Please Naruto-kun, call me Kurenai-chan. After what you have done, I
consider you a dear friend of mine.� Said Kurenai.
�Thank you Kurenai-chan. I�m honored you consider me a friend, I just wish I
could have been around to help you through your ordeal.� Said Naruto.
�Actually, you kinda did. Ever since that day I have kinda used your coat as
a sort of security blanket at night. I know it sounds stupid but it really did
make me feel better knowing I had something of the man who saved me.� Said
Kurenai blushing a little thinking Naruto would laugh at her confession.
�I don�t think it�s stupid at all Kurenai-chan. It is actually fairly common
to latch on to something as a form of comfort after a traumatic event, be it a
person or an inanimate object. I just happy my coat could be that for you.� Said
Naruto sincerely.
�Thanks Naruto-kun, but I still want to give you back your coat. I don�t
feel I need it anymore and besides now I got you on my team which is even
better.� Said Kurenai cheerfully.
�No problem, but I�ll only take it back if you�re sure you no longer need
it.� Said Naruto.
�I�m sure� responded Kurenai.
�Ok then. So do you think we should go check on Kiba and Hinata? I�m a
little curious what they�ve been up to since they probably woke up. I know for
a fact that Kiba�s interested in Hinata so I wanted to give him some time alone
with her, but I also wanna make sure he didn�t do something stupid to get her
to kick his ass. I could just see Kiba making some perverted dog comment to
Hinata and her closing the tenketsus in his groin. Just the thought makes me
cringe.� Said Naruto in mock horror.
�Ha, you�re probably right. From what I could tell, Kiba seemed a little bit
like a horn-dog.� laughed Kurenai.
�That he is, but he�s also a good kid. He seems to have a fair bit of
loyalty and he�s dependable. I guess he�s a dog in more ways than one huh.�
Naruto said.
�If you say so, but you�re right we should probably go check on your
teammates. They�re probably wondering what happened to us too.� Said Kurenai.
Finishing their conversation, Kurenai and Naruto took off for the roof they
had their first team meeting at. When they got there, sure enough, Kiba and
Hinata had already awoken and left. They did at least leave a note saying they
had gone home and if they were needed they could be reached there.
Realizing it was getting late, Kurenai and Naruto parted ways with Kurenai
telling Naruto the team would be meeting tomorrow morning at seven at training
ground 8 and that she would let the other two know.
When Naruto got home he summoned Kyuubi once more to talk to her about the
day�s events before bed.
�I told you so.� Said Kyuubi as soon as she appeared.
�What are you talking about?� asked Kyuubi as the two got in bed.
�I told you that woman liked you Naru-kun� said Kyuubi as she
snuggled up to Naruto.
�What gave it away? How she was practically throwing herself at me or how
about the part where she said I was the only guy she felt at peace with
around.� Naruto said sarcastically.
�I think she literally did throw herself at you if I remember correctly
and I was actually referring to how she has already slept with you in bed while
using your chest as a pillow.� Kyuubi said with a grin.
�How do you know about that, I thought you were taking a nap at the time?�
Naruto asked.
�That�s what I wanted you to think. You give me such juicy things to
tease you with when you think I�m not looking.� Kyuubi laughed.
�Whatever, what I actually wanted to talk to you about was what we should
tell everyone tomorrow? Kurenai already knows you�re sealed inside me so I
could tell her that�s how I aged so fast, but Kiba and Hinata don�t and I don�t
want to tell them about me until they get to know the real me better.� Said
Naruto.
�Personally I think it�s none of their business, but if you feel you need
to tell them something, just say you trained in a place where time passed
slower and leave it at that. You don�t owe an explanation to anyone.� Said
Kyuubi.
�I guess you�re right, but they�re not going to like it.� Naruto replied.
�I don�t care and I�m tired of talking about this. Whatever happens
happens. Now I got an itch and you have just the tool needed to scratch it, so
get to scratching.� Kyuubi said seductively as she undid her kimono.
�Damn woman, are you sure you were virgin before me?� Asked Naruto jokingly.
�I�m a thousand year old demon fox Naru-kun. I have a lot of time to make
up for.� Kyuubi replied before the two of them commenced with another long
night of love making.

The next day when Naruto arrived at training ground eight he
was greeted by the faces of Kiba and Hinata. Kurenai was not there yet, but it
was still early and would probably be there soon.

�Hey guys how ya feeling this morning, you took a pretty rough fall when you
both fainted yesterday.� Naruto grinned in greeting.
�WHAT THE HELL MAN! FIRST WE FIND OUT YOU�RE SOME KIND OF ADULT INSTEAD OF A
KIND, THEN YOU AND SENSEI JUST UP AND LEAVE US ON A ROOF UNCONCIOUS. I THOUGHT
ADULTS WERE SUPPPOSED TO BE THE RESPONSIBLE ONES AND SPEAKING OF ADULTS HOW THE
FUCK ARE YOU ONE ANYWAYS!� Kiba shouted when Naruto got his attention.
�Sorry about that guys, but something came up and I would prefer to wait
until your sensei gets here before I answer any questions so I don�t have to
repeat myself.� Naruto said.
After waiting a few minutes Kurenai showed up just on time carrying Naruto�s
trench coat under one arm.
�Here you go Naruto-kun, sorry for almost being late like Kakashi. I
actually forgot to bring your coat when I first left, so I had to go back and
get it.� Said Kurenai as she handed Naruto the coat.
After giving the coat a quick inspection and seeing it was still in good
condition, even if it did smell a little feminine, Naruto put the coat on.
�Thanks Kurenai-sensei, it really is my favorite coat.� Laughed Naruto at
his own lame joke since this was actually his only coat.
�No problem, but I already told you to call me Kurenai-chan. From what I can
remember of what skills of yours I�ve already seen I doubt there is much for me
to teach you.� Kurenai said.
�Um Naruto-san, is it okay if we ask you a few questions now?� asked Hinata
timidly, interrupting the two.
�Oh I�m sorry Hinata-chan, I completely forgot. Also you don�t have to be so
formal, you never were before you found out I�m an adult and I would appreciate
it if that didn�t change now.� Naruto said as he took a seat to get
comfortable, knowing this little interrogation could take awhile.
�Thanks Naruto-kun.� Hinata said a little more at ease as she too took a
seat getting comfortable.
With that Kiba sat down beside Hinata in front of Naruto and Kurenai, Naruto
took note of, sat down right beside him a little to close for his comfort.
Kyuubi was just snickering inside Naruto�s head at the woman�s blatant actions.
After a small bit of silence Kiba spoke up.
�Ok Naruto, can please tell us how the hell you�re some massive adult when
you should just be a twelve year old kid?� Kiba asked without any tact what so
ever.
�Well Kiba if you must know, when I was about four I was adopted and left
the village. While I was gone I was trained by him and someone else. During
this time, because of special circumstances that I am not willing to talk about
now, I trained at half the speed of time as it passed for you and in
combination with an additional incident I do not wish to speak of, I am now
roughly between the age of 19-24.� Answered Naruto.
�How can you not know how old you are and why won�t you tell us about these
�circumstances�?� Kiba asked once more.
�I am not sure how old I am because of the nature of these special
circumstances I talked about and I won�t tell you about them because it is none
of your business and it won�t negatively affect this team in any manor.� Naruto
answered once more remaining calm, even if Kiba was being kinda rude with his
questions.
�Also before any of you ask, I am not willing to talk about my past. Over
the course of my life I have made many enemies and they would just love to know
where I am so they could try to kill me. They would not succeed but it would
still be a pain to have to deal with them. All I want to do is start a new life
as a ninja of this village.� Naruto said before more questions could be asked.
Seeing that Naruto was getting a little tired with all these question,
Kurenai spoke up.
�I think Naruto-kun�s answered enough questions for today and we should
respect his privacy. He already told us what we needed to know.� Kurenai said.
�Now, I think its time I give you guys your true test to decide if you are
ready to be genins� smiled Kurenai.
�Kurenai-chan, I don�t think that�s necessary. If you�re planning on giving
us the old bell test like Kakashi does, you might need these.� Naruto said
holding two bells.
Seeing Naruto holding the two bells, Kurenai searched all over her body
trying to find the bells she brought.
�What�How�When?� Kurenai stuttered realizing that somehow since she arrived
Naruto had already nabbed her bells without her even noticing.
�Come on Kurenai-chan; if you actually tried to test us I alone could
probably kill you without much trouble. I�m not saying your weak or anything
but I�m fairly confident that if I wanted to, I could even take on Kakashi with
his sharingan active and win. I�m not strong enough to take on someone like Itachi
by any means yet but a little genin test is really just a waste of time. I will
personally vouch for my two teammates that they are ready. I was the one who
requested to the Hokage that they be put on my team. I will take responsibility
to make sure nothing happens to anyone on my team.� Naruto stated and put extra
emphasis on the word anyone as he looked Kurenai in the eye.
�Fine I�ll trust your judgment Naruto-kun, but this just means we�ll begin
training today instead of tomorrow like I had planned if you had past the test.
We�ll begin with tree climbing to work on your guys� chakra control. I like to
specialize in genjutsus and chakra control is essential to be any good at them.
I want to be able to impart my knowledge onto you, but before I can do that I
need to get your control up to par.� Kurenai said.
With that Kurenai led her team over to a set of trees.
�How the hell can climbing a tree help us any at controlling our chakra?�
asked Kiba not seeing the point.
�I think what Kurenai-chan means is that she wants you two to climb the tree
without the use of your hands.�
�Don�t be an idiot Naruto, that�s not possible.� Stated Kiba.
�Actually Kiba that�s exactly what I want you three to do� Said Kurenai not
noticing Naruto�s raised eye brow when she said three.
�Um Kurenai-chan I think I may be just a little past tree climbing.� Said
Naruto.
�I�m sure you are Naruto-kun, I meant for you to be the one to demonstrate
for your fellow teammates.� Said Kurenai with an implied �duh�.
�Oh, Ok you two the trick is to channel your chakra into your feet but just
enough so you can stick to the tree. If you use to much you will repel yourself
from the tree and if you don�t use enough you will slip and fall off.� Naruto
said as he demonstrated for them by walking up the tree with ease and then
hanging underneath a branch to emphasize his point.
Naruto then dropped down from the tree and landed in a crouch before he spoke
once more.
�I learned it helps if you start out by running and using a kunai to mark
your progress.� Naruto said earning a nod of approval from Kurenai.
While Kiba and Hinata went ahead attempting to climb the tree, Kurenai
approached Naruto.
�That was a very good explanation Naruto-kun, maybe you should think of
becoming a sensei once you become a jounin.� Said Kurenai.
�I don�t think so Kurenai-chan, the way I was trained and taught would
probably kill most children and that�s the only way I would know to teach them.
It�s a kind of make it or brake it style of teaching. It will make you a great
ninja but you can�t be exactly normal to begin with, not to mention the amount
of determination you must have. I think I�ll leave most of the teaching to you and
just add a few tips every now and then. Besides ever since I was four I was
practically raised for combat and killing. I don�t regret it since that was
what I asked for, but I kind of get a little fidgety if I don�t get to fight
someone for a long time.� Naruto said.
Deciding to not ask what Naruto�s training was like till later Kurenai
responded.
�Well that�s too bad; I really think you could teach kids a lot. I am a
little curious though what you plan to do since you are already past what I�ll
be teaching your teammates?� Kurenai asked.
�The Hokage mainly wanted me to serve in an assistant teaching role. I will
leave most of the teaching to you, but when you need some help explaining or
demonstrating something all you need to do is ask. When I�m not needed here,
I�ll be off somewhere a little more private to continue my training I was in
the middle of before returning to the village. Just tell me the day before if
you will need help with anything. I will also of course be helping with any
missions the team is assigned.� Said Naruto.
�Oh, I guess that�s ok.� Kurenai said a little disappointed that Naruto
would not be around that much.
Somehow sensing the source of Kurenai�s disappointment Naruto spoke up.
�Since I�ll probably not be around a lot, feel free to stop by my apartment
anytime you like to hang out. You said it yourself that were friends and I
wouldn�t mind spending time with you. Also remember what I said, all you have
to do is let me know you need my help here with something and I�ll be sure to
stop by.� Naruto said trying to cheer the woman up.
�Thanks Naruto-kun, I�d like that. If you wouldn�t mind though, I�d like for
you to stick around today so we can spend the first day as a team.� Kurenai
said a little brighter since Naruto invited her to spend time with him anytime
she wanted.
�That sounds fine to me, but how about we discuss what you got planned to
teach Kiba and Hinata while they continue to work on those trees.� Naruto said.
The rest of the morning Naruto and Kurenai spent writing up a training
regime while the other two genins worked on the tree exercise. When training
was finished that day Naruto told his team that he had to go and had things to
take care of.
After Naruto left, he began to search for a new area to train at. Where he
had previously been training had recently been claimed by team 7 and Naruto was
forced to find a new place that he would not be disturbed.
Every training ground Naruto went to either did not fit his needs or was
already claimed by a team. After searching most of the day Naruto finally had
some success.
He had found a place to train that would offer him complete privacy and no
one would bother him, at least no one sane. It was a huge forest with a number
of deadly plants and animals, Naruto would be able to completely focus on
learning the scrolls Kenshin had given him.
To Naruto it personally wasn�t that bad from what he read about it. For
someone like him and what he was used to it even sounded kind of homey.
As Naruto walked into the forest he made note of the sign on the outside. It
read training ground 44 and someone had carved underneath the title �forest of
death� with what appeared to be a kunai.
Naruto just shrugged and calmly walked inside to set up his new training
area completely unaware that some one was currently watching him with a
sadistic smirk and lust for blood.

A/N: Here you guys go. This is the first chapter of
the second arc of the story. I put Naruto on team 8 since there was an
overwhelming demand for it with very good reasons accompanying the votes. I
just want to list a few accomplishments for the story and myself at this point.
Stats on fanfiction.net: As of Now the story is past 40,000 words, 9
chapters, has 156 reviews, 21,350 hits, it is in 20 C2s, on 75 people�s favorite
story list, has 138 alert subscribers, I am on 16 people�s favorite author
list, and on 26 people�s author alert list. I can not believe that my first
story is this well liked. Also this chapter broke 11,000 words to make up for
the last chapter being only a little longer than 4,000. I am not sure when I�ll
have the next chapter out since I have some things to take care of before I go
back to college but I�ll try to write a little each day. Writers block is not
an issue for me right now, I actually have a good idea what I want to write for
the next few chapters, the problem is finding time to write. I do not know how
common this length of chapter will be but I will try making the minimum length
from here on out be at least 4,000 words. Thanks again for all the wonderful reviews,
I will now occasionally update my homepage to let you know the status of the
next chapter.

Naruto the Battousai
