Naruto's POV
------------------
Time passes from that day. Iruka kept his promise to me, everyday after work he comes to my apartment and we hang out. It's nice to have a real friend. Whenever any of rookie 9 come over I never answer the door because I know none of them were ever my friends. They all used me, and for what to get Sasuke back! Everyone said I couldn't make it to be a ninja, they all said I was a no one in the world and I'm just wasting my time. Nobody supported me until Sasuke was gone and they used me to get him back. Wow what great friends! I've been training lately, getting stronger everyday. I don't go to training ground 7 anymore because I know my team will be there. I still go on missions with them but I don't talk to them if it's not about the mission. Sasuke thanked me for bringing him back a few times but I pretend I don't hear them if it's not about the mission. I don't use any of the training grounds actually, I go into the woods behind the training grounds. It's very peaceful. I think I've gotten stronger training by myself then with my team. Right now I'm headed to my training ground just for a few hours. I noticed someone's chakra coming up behind me. "Naruto!" It's Sasuke. I keep walking but I'm using a different route because I don't want him to know where I'm heading. "Naruto! Stop!" I turn around and look at him. "Do we have a mission or something?, I kinda have some stuff I'd like to do today." "No, we don't have a mission. I want answers why you're not talking to anyone except when it's about a mission!" I kept walking until he grabbed my shoulder to stop me. "Let go and I won't hurt you." I let out a growl probably from kurama. "Stop being such a dobe and answer me!" I grabbed his hand and threw him up against a tree. I started running up in the trees using kurama's  speed. Making my escape I kept running until it was dark. I started to head home thinking Sasuke must be tried out. I arrive at my apartment to see rookie 9 all waiting in my home. I turned around as fast as I could and starting running until I felt something sharp hit my leg. A dart? I blacked out from the dart draining what chakra I had left. I awake to see a white ceiling and the sun shining bright on my face.
