MAKING MY DECISIONS

CHAPTER 1: THE START

AN: This is my first story so please write a review to tell me how I am doing.

I don't own Naruto

Our story starts from the garden of the Namikaze-Uzumaki household. In the garden we can clearly see a blond haired boy and a red haired girl trying to climb up a tree by using their chakra and they are failing miserably. Their parents were helping them to do the tree climbing exercise correctly. And their little sister is laughing on their expenses. All in all it is a picture of a perfect family. And why wouldn't be. It is the family of the fourth hokage Minato Namikaze "The Yellow Flash" and Kushina Uzumaki "The Red Death" of Konoha. The blond boy is Menma Uzumaki, he is a mirror reflection of his father just younger and the girl is Mito Uzumaki, she is also the younger version of her mother. Their little sister is Rin Uzumaki who was barely 2 month old, she also has red hair. They are spending their time with great joy like nothing could never happen.

But the world is not only black and white there are many shades of grey in-between.

Now we see a boy looking at the family from the window of his room with a sad look on his face. The boy has similar blond hair like Menma but has red mixture in it. The name of the boy is Naruto Uzumaki. He is the oldest son of Minato Namikaze and Kushina Uzumaki. Now you have questions like "Why is he not with them?". To answer that question we have to go 6 years back.

FLASHBACK 6 YEARS AGO…

We see a half destroyed village in front of us, civilians trying to repair the destroyed buildings and shinobis are helping them with heavy lifting. The said village is in a state of panic and chaos because just a week ago the village was attacked by the Nine-tailed demon fox. But their savior the fourth hokage saved them by sealing the demon fox in his own children Menma and Mito and then he announced the children as the HERO of the village for the demon fox at bay.

Now in the hokage tower, we see the fourth hokage Minato Namikaze, Kushina uzumaki, Tsunade Senju of the sannin and Jirraya the sannin are standing discussing something. Jirraya brought news from the Toad-Sage that children born from powerful families will be the child of prophecy and change the world for better or worse. Jirraya was certain that the children are Menma and Mito because they are from Namikaze and Uzumaki clan, also the jinchuriki of the Nine-tailed demon fox. So right now they are discussing what they should do to help the child of prophecy. After discussing many plans that they will early train the children in their home instead of sending to the academy. They will directly give their graduation exam when they will be of age. Jirrya and Minato wii teach their style and jutsus to Menma who will also be the next Toad summoner. Kushina and Tsunade will teach their style and jutsus to Mito who will be the next Slug summoner.

After their discussion Minato went to meet Shikaku Nara and Hiruzen Sarutobi to tell them about their great plan about Menma and MIto. After that he ordered them to fulfill the duties of the Hokage so he can properly train his children. Shikaku and Hiruzen were reluctant at first to say the least but eventually they gave up because it was an order from their Hokage.

FLASHBACK END….

FLASHBACK 2 YEARS AGO….

Little Menma and Mito are very excited because today was their birthday Oct 10th. But the main reason for their excitement is that they will start their ninja training from tomorrow. Their parents are also happy for their children and also for the other one that will come in one month.

Evening came and there was a party for the hero of the village, everybody from shinobi to civilians all were celebrating. In all these celebrations nobody saw a sad boy sitting around the corner. The reason for the boy's sadness is that his parents said no to train him with his siblings and also everybody forgot that it was his birthday also. He wasn't upset because of others but because of his parents. Every year it's the same even when the whole family goes out for dinner or other purposes they never take his suggestion into consideration.

FLASHBACK END…..

After their birthday Naruto tried many times to ask his parents if he can join his siblings for training but the answer was always "no" or "we will think about it". So after trying for a year on their 5th birthday Naruto gave up on training with his siblings and parents and decided to train on his own.

At first it was difficult to train by himself because he didn't know where to start or what to do. Then he decided to head to the library to know what he should do for his training. He came to know about the types of taijutsu, ninjutsu, genjutsu, fuinjutsu, kenjutsu etc. For learning taijutsu he decided he have to make his body durable and fast first, for ninjutsu he came to know that he has to have a certain control over his chakra to perform ninjutsus. Same goes for genjutsu. For other types of fighting styles he decided he will learn them later. So from the next morning he started doing exercises to make his body strong and fast. From noon to evening he will try to unlock his chakra. This training program went for 3 weeks. After 3 long weeks Naruto finally unlocked his chakra. After unlocking his chakra he then started doing chakra control exercises. For being an Uzumaki his chakra was already low chunin level, so basically his chakra control was not very good at the start. But he didn't give up and continued training. Sometimes he would seek advice from other ninjas and they would tell him what he needed to know because they didn't want to anger the hokage's son. Naruto didn't go to his family for help because they always ignore him, his siblings mock him because he is weaker than him and also try to anger him by saying that their parents love him more than him. Menma and Mito also told their friends not to hangout with their pathetic brother. There were people that didn't listen to that but they didn't also openly befriend Naruto either for the fear of being left out by the rest of the group.

This continued for a year and Naruto continued his own training in his own secluded spots. His chakra reserves went upto low jonin. And his Taijutsu went upto low chunin level because he can only learn basic academy style taijutsu without anyone helping him. But in chakra control exercise he mastered the tree climbing exercise and he is in the middle of mastering the water walking exercises. He also mastered the basic academy three jutsu the substitution, transformation, clone. So to make his control better he would transform into someone who will do the tree working exercise than instantly substitute with a log nearby while making a clone. This technique helped with chakra control remarkably.

So now Naruto is age of six and after joyful display of his family he decide he should join the academy.
