Ryu POV

Hiruzen: I see you brought everyone. Its not what I was expecting but it isn't all together unpleasant. Plus it will save you the trouble.

Ryu: So I'm guessing you want me to tell them about it.

Hiruzen: I'd like you to yes, but if you want to do it at another time it's okay.

Ryu: No it's fine, I was planning to tell them anyway. Naruto, Sakura, I've been meaning to tell you two and Sasuke this for the longest time but I never had the courage to tell you it until recently.

Sakura: What is it?

Naruto: You can tell us.

I then took a deep breath.

Ryu: Ok. The truth is, when we were in the forest of death, that power you say me using was something different from my own normal Chakra. It was the Chakra of something I had inside of me since birth. Let me start from this, the reason my nickname is the Lone Wolf of the Leaf is not only because I carry out Solo missions, but I have the Spirit of a Wolf inside of me. She's like the 9 Tailed Fox, but the power it poses is much stronger than that of the foxes. It's part of a Legend of 2 Wolves that were at the beginning of the Shinobi world. Shonen, and Shojo. The wolves had been the Companions of a Sage, those wolves had been his guardians until his death. After the death of that sage the wolves had no place to go, they had no purpose. They wandered through the world. One day those wolves had ran into a strange boy who bared a great resemblance to the Sage and decided to protect him. One day after the boy had grown old along with the wolves, their spirits had been sent into the new born grandchildren of the boy. The children were granted amazing abilities like wild like senses of smell and hearing. After the children had passed the spirits had passed as well. This went on for all of time, all the way to now. My sister and I have those wolf spirits in us. Some people along the way thought those wolves were evil and couldn't be trusted, so the kids were shunned. Some of the villagers here thought about that for a while too. That's mostly the reason I was alone for most of my life. I got into fights and isolated myself after my mothers death and Kira leaving. That was until I became a Genin. Things started looking up for a bit.

Flashback to about 7 years ago when Ryu was 6.

Kid Ryu POV

We had just graduated from the academy and I was put on a team with that girl named Mei and the guy called Kai.

Kai: Ugh! The Sensei's late!

Mei: We know Kai, and it's bothering us just as much as it is you, but your whining is starting to aggravate me.

Ryu: Could you just keep it down?

Kai: I can't believe you can be so calm about this! Doesn't it make you a little mad that the Sensei didn't even bother to show up on time?!

Ryu; Well if it makes you be quiet sooner than you should know that the Sensei is coming in.

Kai: Huh? What are you-

Just then, a women with red hair showed walked in.

???: Sorry I'm late, I had to take care of something.

She looked around the room to see that it was completely vacant except for us.

???: Wow I must have completely forgot to check the time.

Mei: Better late then never.

???: Right. Well I want you three to meet me on the roof in five minutes.

She then used a body flicker to move out of sight. I used my Flying Raijin to teleport up to the roof leaving the two of them down there.

Time Skip.

???: Alright lets introduce ourselves. I guess I can go first. I'm Kyrie Uzumaki. My likes are great ninja like the Hokage. My dislikes are bandits and other things. And I guess my dream was to become and Elite ninja, which I am. My hobbies are reading and cooking. Alright, you one the right.

Kai: My name is Kai Taisen! I like training and going to the ramen shop. My dislikes are stuck up jerks who bully others. My hobby is drawing. And my dream; Is to become the Future Hokage!

Kyrie: Ok, you in the middle.

Mei: Oh! My name is Mako Kaiser, but my friends call me Mei! I like picking flowers. I never really thought about something I disliked. My hobby throwing Kunai at a target when I'm bored. My dream is to walk in the footsteps of the Legendary Sanin Tsunade Senju.

Kyrie: Ok last one, you blonde tips.

Ryu: My name is Ryu Namikaze. I don't really like anything. I dislike guys that bully weak people. My hobby is training alone. I never really had something like a dream, because I'm gonna make it a reality. I'm going to become the strongest ninja to ever live.

Kyrie: Good you each have your own goals. At five we will begin a test. If say that you pass than you become a Genin.

Mei's eyes then widened.

Mei: But I thought we already did.

She started chuckling.

Ryu: I'm guessing not every one of the academy students will be chosen to be Genin then.

Kyrie: Bingo. Only nine will actually pass. So I'll judge you and see if you three will become Genin. And your chances may not be high. Meet me at the training fields in an hour.

Time Skip

I we got to the training fields to wait for the Sensei. After another 5 minutes she was there.

Kyrie: Good, your all here. Now we can start.

She then pulled out three ribbons.

Mei: So do we have to get those ribbons from you?

Kyrie: Yes. If you mange you get these ribbons after 30 minutes, you pass regardless of what I think. If you don't get them, then based on what I think, you'll either pass, or you'll fail. I want you all to come at me with the intent to kill. Understood?

Kai: Getting those things will be a piece of cake!

Kyrie: People like you usually fail the fastest. Now. On your mark, get set, Go.

We all then leaped into the tree's. I quickly flashed near Mei scaring her before grabbing her and teleporting to Kai.

Mei: Could you stop doing that?! I am on the verge of getting a heart attack when you pop out of nowhere!

Kai: Give us some kind of warning!

Ryu: Just listen. As much as I don't wanna admit it, I'm gonna need your help to get the ribbons. There's no way we can do it on our own, she's forcing us to come at her all at once.

Mei: But even if we fight her together, would we be able to get one of them?

Ryu: Not sure.

Kai: Then should we make a plan.

Ryu: It would take to long to discuss it. We just have to go at her and hope to snatch them. You two have Water and Fire Nature's so do whatever jutsu you think could work. Now let's go. I'll throw a Kunai down and teleport us behind her. Then we attack. Ready?

They both nodded. I threw my Special Kunai behind her not making her move an inch.

Kyrie: So you finally decided to make your moves eh?

I then flashed behind her with the others going with me. Without a second thought I launched at her with a kunai in my hand.

Kyrie: Hmm, fighting with a kunai in hand to hand huh? Not bad.

I then swiped at her head while she dodged effortlessly. I then brought out a special kunai to use. Mei and Kai had also attacked while we teleported. It looked like she wasn't even trying to take us seriously so then I stoped and backed up. I formed some hand signs for a Jutsu. The most noticeable were the Ox and rabbit signs.

Kyrie: You can already use Lightning Style?!

Ryu: Lightning Style: Lightning Cross Jutsu!

I pulled back my hands and swung them in an X motion. Lighting the formed in the spot I swung at. I then pushed my hands forward sending the lighting X towards Kyrie Sensei. It came at her a bit to slow and she had time to move out of the way.

Ryu: Mei, Kai!

They knew what I wanted them to do at those words.

Kai: Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!

Mei: Water Style: Liquid Bullets!

They shot balls of Fire and Water and they collided with each other, creating a lot of steam.

Kyrie: 'Clever. Using a smoke screen to bling me. That would be a problem if I couldn't sense them.'

I then ran at her through the steam. I was able to smell her so I wouldn't need to rely on my sight. I then threw a special kunai at her but she moved to the side just as planned. I smirked and teleported to the kunai. I was able to catch her off guard and got all three of the ribbons without her noticing. I ran out of the smoke to the others to give them the ribbons.

Kyrie: You three are smart. Knowing that you couldn't beat me one on one so you worked together. It was your best and only option. I'm impressed.

Mei: So does that mean?

Kyrie: That right. The three of you pass.

Kai: ALRIGHT!!! IM A NINJA NOW!!!

Mei: Wahoo!!

I gave a slight smile at the fact that I was closer to reaching my goal.

Kyrie: Whats wrong Ryu? You don't seem that happy.

Ryu: I'm fine. I just don't like screaming my lungs out. If you see a little smile on my face then it means I am happy.

Kyrie: 'I will break that shell of his somehow.' Well then Team, we'll start our first mission tomorrow!

???: Well you became a ninja so I guess your not completely useless.

Ryu: Huh?

I thought I heard something for a second but, it might have been my imagination, so I just ignored it.

Flashback Pause.

Ryu: So that's how I became a Genin. Sorta like how you two did but it was harder.

Naruto: So how did it happen.

Ryu: Gonna have to be more specific about that buddy.

Haku: Well, you know.

Sakura: How you met Orochimaru.

Ryu: Well it's not the happiest part of this story.

Flashback Resume

Kid Ryu POV

I was fighting one of the bandits that were attacking us. After a full month of kitty missions, all of us got tired of doing the same boring task everyday and we asked Lord Hokage for a higher ranking Mission. We were guarding some Lady escorting her back to her home in a different land. While we walking we got stopped by the bandits. And that's pretty much how we started this situation.

Ryu: Come on, is that all you've got?

He then saw that Mei had her guard down after beating one of his henchmen. He went to stab her with a knife, but I threw a kunai and teleported right in front of him and punched him down to the ground.

Ryu: Let me make this clear. If you ever try to hurt one of my friends, I'll kill you.

I then turned to Mei.

Ryu: You alright?

Mei: Yeah but, your eyes.

Ryu: Huh?

I walked by to a nearby puddle and saw that my eyes had two commas each in them. I had unconsciously activated my Sharingan to protect her.

Ryu: I guess that out of the bag.

Kai: You have the Sharingan?! But I thought you were a Namikaze!

Ryu: My mom was an Uchiha, you do the math.

Kyrie: Well your still you no matter what changes you go through.

My eyes widened at this and I smiled.

Ryu: Heh. Usually when any adult see's me the either run away or are to scared to move. Its kinda nice not having someone be scared when they find out my secret.

Kai: Well they just don't understand that your special. Your a nice guy so why should that change how anyone feels about you?

Mei: Yeah. Your gonna be our friend no matter what.

Tears slightly started to roll down my eyes as they said those words.

Ryu: Thanks. That really mean a lot to me.

Time Skip!

We were walking back to the village after we finished the mission. While were walking I was on edge for some reason.

Kyrie: Whats wrong Ryu, you haven't said anything the entire walk back.

Ryu: It's just- EVERYONE MOVE OUT THR WAY!

We all moved out of the way where a bunch of shuriken and kunai were thrown.

Ryu: Who's there?!

All of a sudden, a pale white figure emerged from the shadows.

???: I have been observing you boy. I was already fascinated with your skill, but it seems you are even more valuable then I thought.

Kyrie: Which boy?

He pointed to me.

Ryu: 'What? Why am I valuable to this creep? Is it my eyes?'

Kyrie: Well we won't just give him to you.

???: Hm~. Well here are your choices: either the boy comes with me, or I take him by force.

All of the sudden I saw images of the 3 of them being killed by his hand. I dropped to one knee breathing hard. I looked at everyone else and they were shaking even worse than I was. The only one who was barely standing was Kyrie, but even she was shaking.

Ryu: 'Was that genjutsu? It was so real. I can still feel the bloodlust coming from him. He's gonna kill them.'

I threw up like I got a hard punch from the stomach, but he hadn't moved an inch.

???: You see you cannot win. That is what would have happened if you advanced. Now hand the boy over before it becomes reality.

I stood up weakly before looking back at them.

Ryu: No... I'll go. You'll all be killed. It's better this way.

I smiled at them whole heartedly.

Ryu: I don't want anyone I care about to die again.

I began to walk toward him ready to accept my fate. But just then a fireball was sent straight at him. I turned to see Kai was the source of it.

Ryu: K-Kai?

Kai: I'm not gonna let you take my best friend away from me!! We've been together for months and our team wouldn't be the same without him! Sure he can be a loner some times, but that's just who he is!!

Mei: He's right! He can be rude unintentionally, but he's still a good person! We can't just abandon him after all of this!

Kyrie: He's apart of the Hidden Leaf Village! He's Ryu Namikaze! It would be a crime to abandon him like that! We'd never do that yo him!! You'd have to kill us first!!

I teared up at every single word they spoke. I just don't want myself to be the reason they died too. It happened once with my mother, I couldn't let that happen again. Before I could say anything else I felt that guy punch me in the stomach. It hurt so much that I was barely conscious and on the floor.

Ryu: Please... run...!

???: If you are all so willing to die for this one boy very well. You shall die in vain!

He rushed at them with some sort of sword in hand. He violently attacked them with no mercy and beat them within an inch of they're lives. I could see every detail during his assault and I was feeling they're pain as if it was my own. This went on for what felt like hours before they were all on the ground not even able to crawl.

???: So much stubbornness. I will quickly deal with you three now.

I couldn't muster any strength for words. I could only reach my hand out in they're direction as if I could save them. They all smiled at me with they're faces bloody and bruised. He smiled before he stabbed all of them. I couldn't hear they're breathing, I could only see the lifeless body of my team. I felt so much pain that I even tired to will myself to pass out, but I couldn't. Everyone I cared about was dead. I started to get a splitting headache. My eyes felt like they were morphing. I looked in a puddle of blood to see my eyes were completely different. They looked like weird shaped shuriken.

I wasn't able to stay awake for much longer. I felt like all of my chakra was vanishing. I slowly closed my eyes and the last thing I could here was the voice from before.

???: Well if you die now it would be a pain to find another host, so I'll lend you some of my Chakra.

I then passed out.

Time Skip!

I woke up in a dark room. I could barely see were I was. My head still hurt like crazy but I would survive.

???: Good. Your awake.

I turned to see the same man. I began to get visibly angry.

Ryu: You monster!! You killed my team!! You didn't have to go that far! You could have just taken me and gone just like that! You wanted to see them bleed!! You enjoyed seeing them die!!

My eyes had turned into Sharingan and I glared fiercely at him.

???: I like that fire in you boy. But from here on you will do everything I say. Not unless you want the Leaf to suffer the same fate.

My eyes widened and I didn't utter another word unless I wanted the place I called home to be destroyed too.

???: Good. Now you will be my next vessel. I will train you to grant you power so much greater than you could imagine. You will master the curse mark I placed on you neck as well.

Ryu: Curse mark? What are you talking about?

???: You never noticed that your neck feels sore?

He was right, I had been feeling a bit of pain on my neck. I rubbed it and belt some kind of bruise on it.

Ryu: What did you do to me?

???: That mark will grant you more power than you could ever dream of.

He took out what looked like food pills.

Ryu: What are those.

???: Those are what will take that mark to the next level. If you eat one of these you will be sent into a death like trance. After time has passed that mark will grant you much more power than it could right now. Now eat it.

I took the pill begrudgingly and swallowed it. All of a sudden I felt like I was being torn in two. 4 ninja about my age stepped around me.

Ryu: Tch... I'm not dying today...

He pointed to a nearby container that had some seals. I was guessing he wanted me to in it so I walked over and stepped in it. After I was in everything went black.

???: Don't you die. If you do it'll just prove how worthless you are.

Ryu: 'That's it, who the heck are you?! I've been hearing your voice for what I'm guessing has been over a month right now. Who is talking in my head?

???: All you need to know is that I've been here since the beginning for you. I've only started talking because I got board of waiting for you to notice. Anyway are you really gonna let that stupid mark beat you? If so then it seams I was wrong about you.

Ryu: 'Please, if I loose right now, it proves that I was never gonna be the strongest to begin with!' Grrrruahhhhh!!

I then exploded with a new found fury. I came out of the crate dealing different. I could smell even better than before and I could hear better to. I turned to everyone else and saw they're shocked expressions.

Ryu: What?

The guy then handed me a mirror and I saw my reflection.

???: In record time and with a such amazing results. You are a prodigy boy. As a reward I will tell you my name at least. I am Orochimaru.

Ryu: As in one of the three Sanin of legend?

Orochimaru: Yes.

Ryu: Doesn't matter to me. As long as the leaf is unharmed I don't care.

Orochimaru: Good child. Now those puny Kunai and Shuriken will not suffice. Take these as your new weapons.

He handed my 2 machetes and a set of throwing knives.

Ryu: Thank you, Lord Orochimaru.

He smiled at the gesture. I couldn't control what I was saying for a minute, it felt like the thing on my neck was taking control over me.

3 years later.

It's been 3 years since I was kidnapped by Orochimaru. While I've been under his command I had killed many. It wasn't something I was proud of but if it was for the leaf I could live with it. During this time I learned the origin of the spirit inside of me. Turns out her name was Shojo and she was a wolf spirit passed down for person to person. While I was here I had gotten stronger, but not by as much as I could have if I put all of my effort in it. I was tortured to increase my endurance and it had changed my mental thinking. I became cold towards others and I hardly flinched at killing someone.

Ryu: 'You know what Shojo?'

Shojo: What?

Ryu: 'I'm tired of this. Tired of being his lapdog, tired of mercilessly killing people and probably ruining lives. I'm just done with it.'

Shojo: Well all of this has changed you in some way. Before you were just unintentionally a jerk, but now you just kill without mercy. So yeah the happy you before was a lot better.

Ryu: 'Yeah. And if I'm being honest, I hate Orochimaru with a burring passion for what he did. I want to kill him but I know I wouldn't even come close. But I know I can at least escape now.'

Shojo: Well I definitely won't say anything to stop you. Go on.

Ryu: 'But first, I gotta steal every bit of information about the curse marks and other things that I can get. Lord Hokage has to know about all of this.'

I snuck around everywhere to Orochimaru's secret room. It was were he had all of the research on forbidden Jutsu and the the curse marks. I grabbed another scroll to hide all of those scrolls in. I went out of the room quietly so no one would notice. When I was about to leave I got kicked from behind.

Ryu: Alright who has the balls?

I looked to see Jirobo behind me.

Ryu: I've gotta say Jirobo, it's pretty gutsy to attack me like that alone without the rest here. Especially since I thrashed to the last time we fought one on one.

Jirobo: Good thing I didn't come alone.

I looked behind me and saw the rest of the sound four.

Tayuya: So your just betraying us like that?

Sakon: You know we won't let you go.

Ryu: You don't have a choice in the matter. I'm going weather you like it or not.

Kimimaro: You'll stay right here!

Ryu: And what will you do four arms? All of you may be stronger than me combined but I'll take you all down with skill alone.

We all transformed and got ready to fight.

Time Skip.

After an hour, I knocked out everyone but Sakon and Tayuya.

Sakon: How is this possible?! You should have lost ages ago!

Tayuya: What kind of drive do you have.

Ryu: One that surpasses all of yours. After I'm done with you two, I'm going home.

I then flashed in front of Sakon and punched him into the wall. He was still awake after the punch but not for long. I appeared in front of him again and got ready to finish him.

Ryu: Take this!

I started to rapidly punch him across the body destroying the wall behind him.

Sakon: GAAH!!

After I was done he was knocked out cold.

Tayuya: You little-

I cut her on the face with a kunai I marked and reappeared behind her. I the delivered a swift chip to her neck sending her crashing to the ground.

Ryu: Alright... it's time to get out of here...

I began to walk away from the hideout barely being able to keep myself up. I don't know how but for a straight day I walked with my injuries before I found myself on top of the Hokage faces. When I saw an open window I threw in one of my knives before teleporting inside and seeing a familiar and welcomed face.

Ryu: Lord time no see *grunt* Lord 3rd...

Hiruzen: Is that you Ryu? Where is your team? Why have you been gone for three years? And more importantly why do you look like you just came out of a handicapped battle?

Ryu: Alright. I'll tell you everything right now.

Time Skip

Lord 3rd had a look of absolute furry on his face.

Hiruzen: You mean Orochimaru has done all this?! Killed 3 from my village, kidnapped you and forced you to do his will, and threatened to destroy the village as well?!

Ryu: Yes.

I tossed him a scroll.

Ryu: This has all of the info I could get on his research in Jutsu and his curse mark. He planted one on me as well.

Hiruzen: I'm sorry child. To think you would have to endure so much more than you already have.

Ryu: It's ok Lord 3rd, really it is. I've lived through this much and I won't die yet.

Hiruzen: Hm. I wish I had half of your willpower when I was your age. Let me seal away that mark of yours.

Ryu: No, I think I can get rid of it for good. And if I do it right, then I can keep some of the power.

Hiruzen: Very well then. You are dismissed boy.

I was about to walk out of the office before he stopped me.

Hiruzen: And Ryu, I regret to tell you this but the entire Uchiha clan was massacred. Only you and one other member is alive.

My eyes slightly widen when I hear this but I went back to normal.

Ryu: Well it's not like I had any family left. Who did it?

Hiruzen: It was Itachi Uchiha.

I then was really shocked.

Ryu: Itachi?! But he was such a nice guy. He had to have had a reason.

Hiruzen: You will know in time.

I pondered that for a minute before I shrugged it off and walked out.

Shojo: Well now that your home what will you do.

Ryu: First of you need to do something about this mark. I know you can get rid of it if you want.

Shojo: Yeah but you never asked so I never did it.

My body started to feel weird all of a sudden before I felt different. I checked my neck and saw that the curse mark was gone.

Ryu: Oh hey, I still have most of the power. Now I just need to readjust and I'll be stronger than ever.

I saw other people looking at me like I was crazy before someone spoke up.

Random Guy: Hey aren't you that kid who passed the academy 3 years ago? Where's your team.

Ryu: They're gone. Got killed on a mission a while back.

I kept walking until I made it to my house. I walked in seeing it seemed to have been recently cleaned.

Time Skip to the next day.

I was walking and thought about what I would have to do for missions again. I sighed and saw the academy.

Ryu: Man this brings back memories. It seams even longer than it has been since I've been here.

Shojo: Yeah, I never said much to you before but it's nice to see this place a-

We got interrupted by some ninja chasing a kid wearing goggles.

Ryu: What the?

I looked to where the kid was going and saw that he faked those ninjas out used camouflage to blend in with some wooden fencing. I walked over to where he was and spoke to him.

Ryu: You know that's a pretty bad disguise. I'm surprised they fell for it.

???: Huh?! What the heck?!

???: Found you Naruto!!

I turned to see a familiar face behind us.

Ryu: Uh- Iruka Sensei. Long time no see.

Iruka: I-Is that you Ryu? I thought you went missing 3 years ago. Is it true what happened to your team?

Ryu: Yeah, but I'm fine, so don't worry to much.

Iruka: Alright. AND AS FOR YOU NARUTO, YOU'RE COMING WITH ME!!

Naruto: Gahhhh!!! Thanks a lot!!

Ryu: What did he even do anyway.

Iruka: Turn your head over there.

He pointed to the right and when I looked I was had no words. I saw the thirds face on the mountain painted on. I looked back at Naruto with an annoyed expression.

Naruto: What will you do?! Your a kid like me!

Iruka: I wouldn't be so confident Naruto. He was one of my old students at the academy. He graduated three years ago at the top of his class.

Naruto then looked at me again but this time with a nervous look.

Naruto: If your even a year older than me, then you graduated when you were six!

Ryu: I'm guessing you failed, a lot.

Iruka: Alright Naruto back to the academy!

He dragged him off back inside.

Iruka: Come inside Ryu, I want you to see this new class.

Ryu: Sure why not.

We then walked in.

Iruka: Everyone, I would like you to meet a special person. This is Ryu, he was a former student of mine before he graduated three years ago.

They all then gasped and crowded around me.

Random Kid: You graduated three years ago?!

Other Random Kid: But your just the same age as us!

Ryu: Hey! Back off everyone. I'll answer your question just don't get so close up!

Iruka: Looks like your popular with the academy students.

Ryu: Alright first: yes I did graduated before. Second: I was the best. Third: I just got back to the village after a while so I don't don't have that much money.

Iruka: So for today's you'll be learning something from Ryu.

Ryu: Wait what?

Academy Students: YEAH!

Ryu: Sensei you didn't- ugh, forget it. Alright everyone come outside.

Everyone came outside. I preformed some hand signs for a jutsu.

Ryu: Fire Style: Fireball Jutsu!

I let out a breath and a big fireball came out. Everyone cheered

Iruka: I'm impressed to see that you've improved even more.

Ryu: Of course I have. But I doubt anyone could-

???: Fireball Jutsu!

I turned to see someone fire a big fireball. I looked to see some kid with an Uchiha crest on their back.

Ryu: 'So that's him huh? Sasuke Uchiha.' That wasn't half bad.

Sasuke: It wasn't anything I couldn't do.

Iruka: That quite impressive Sasuke. For today's sparring how about you go against Ryu.

Ryu: Sensei, I'm seriously not trying to hurt the kid.

Sasuke: Oh yeah? I'll beat you easy.

Ryu: Alright, your funeral.

He charged at me with slightly above average speed, but I could still see his movements in a snails pace. He threw a punch at me which I didn't ever flinch at. I dodged as it was right in front of my face by moving my head to the side. He started again with a flurry of Taijutsu moves, but again I dodged with no effort.

Ryu: Have you noticed anything of about this?

Sasuke: That I haven't hit you yet.

Ryu: Not just that, take a look below you.

He looked down and saw that there was a circle beneath him.

Sasuke: Whats this supposed to... are you mocking me?

Iruka: That cocky attitude of yours hasn't changed one bit Ryu. Had to let him know.

Ryu: I haven't once stepped out of this circle. If you get me to move out of it you win.

After I was done talking he rushed at me. I then sighed and side stepped before chopping him in the neck. Everyone was silent before they all cheered.

Iruka: Very good, taunting you opponent into a counter attack. But you could have just pinned him down instead of knocking him out.

Ryu: It was just a reflex. He'll be up in a minute. Well if that's all I'm off. Thanks for having me over Sensei.

Iruka: Thanks for staying.

I then flashed off.

Time skip to four years later!

It's been four years since I've returned to the village. I turned 13 and was given the nickname: Lone Wolf of the Leaf. I was in the woods training with my throwing knives.

[There should be a GIF or video here. Update the app now to see it.]

Just Imagine it was Ryu.

After I landed I grabbed my machete and in one swift movement I was behind the tree with the blade out. When I re-sheathed it the tree was chopped into three pieces making it fall over.

Shojo: And time. 12 seconds flat. I think that was the best time yet.

Ryu: 'To easy.'

I looked behind me to see that Iruka Sensei was standing behind behind me.

Ryu: Oh, hey Sensei, what are you doing here?

Iruka: Just came to tell you that this years class had passed.

Ryu: Oh that nice. More allies for us I guess.

I then started drinking some water.

Iruka: Also Lord Hokage wanted me to inform you that you will be on team 7.

At that I immediately spit out my water.

Ryu: What?! Why now of all times?! I've been able to do so many missions by myself at this point. Why would I need a team now?

Iruka: Who knows? All I can say is that he didn't give you a choice in the matter.

I sighed and face palmed.

Ryu: Well good thing I got over my issues. When do I need to be there.

Iruka: You had to be there a little while ago.

Ryu: Great so I'm already late. This is gonna be a drag. We'll see you Sensei.

I then flashed off to the academy. The first thing I saw from the corner of my eye was an eraser on top of the door. I immediately threw a knife at it and looked at the one who probably set it up.

Ryu: If your trying to make a good first impression, that was a real bad attempt.

Team 7!

Ryu: 'So it was them huh? Wonder how long it'll take them to remember me.'

Flashback OVER!!

Naruto: So that's why you looked to familiar! We met when we were kids! And your the one that ratted me out!

Sakura: Serves you right Naruto!

Haku: I never knew that part of your past, but it's what's shaped you into who you are now. So in a way it's helped all of us.

Ryu: Yeah I guess you could put it like that. It was hard at first but it was all up hill from there.

Hiruzen: Well then now that that's all covered, you are all dismissed. Go train for your upcoming matches.

I then shivered since a certain someone was looking at me with a sadistic smile.

Ryu: *Gulp*

Kira: Well lets go!

She grabbed onto me and we flashed away. With me only being able to get one last word off.

Ryu: HELP!

AND CUT!! I will never make a chapter this long again. And if I do, I'd collapse! Hope you all enjoyed, my hands are gonna hurt in the morning! Until the next one-

FOLLOW YOUR NINJA WAY!!

Here's a little bonus!
