Chapter 1

A dense fog began to form in the clearing. As Boruto looked around, he couldn't see his sensei anywhere. 'Where is he?' Boruto thought. 'Where is sensei?' All of a sudden, a sharp pain erupted in Boruto's left arm. He looked to see a small gash. He searched the ground around him, finally finding the kunai that had caused the cut. He bent over to pick it up, only to receive another gash across the back of his right thigh. He stood up straight and pulled out his own kunai. He looked around, trying to find any hint of where his sensei might be hiding. However, his endeavor proved to be fruitless, as his sensei was nowhere in sight. 'Of course.' Boruto thought. 'After all, he is Sasuke Uchiha.' A blow to the head brought him back to reality. Before he knew it, he was pinned to the ground with a Chidori inches from his face.

"You are not ready yet," his sensei stated casually. "At this rate, you will never surpass your father."

Boruto glared at Sasuke. "Of course I will! I can already create five shadow clones, and I have mastered three chakra natures!"

Sasuke smirked at him. "At your age, your father could create over 1000 shadow clones. Tell me, have you learned of what your father had to go through as a child? Your life is a paradise compared to his life. He is greater than you will ever be."

Boruto was barely able to contain his rage. "What are you talking about, sensei? I thought my father was loved by the entire village? He had it better than me. At least he didn't have a father who didn't spend any time with him."

Sasuke's smirk suddenly vanished. "Training is over for today. Tomorrow will be an important lesson, so make sure that you are on time."

Boruto suddenly perked up and said, "Ok, sensei! I'll be on time!" He quickly bowed and ran off towards the village. Sasuke sighed. 'If he only knew what we had to deal with when we were younger. Well, he will learn soon enough.' Sasuke smirked again, and started the trip back to Konohagakure.
