ok, here is my newest story, I had an idea in my head for quite some time, but I didn't want to have too many stories to handle.

so, yeah on with the story, this will most likely be a naruXhina one with a strong semi-smart naruto in this fic

Unfortunately (for me) I do not own naruto in any way, shape, or form.

Naruto's bedroom~~~~~~~~~

*Ring Ring* went naruto's alarm clock nghghgh... *click* man, I hate this new mission ojiji-san gave me. Said naruto.

FLASHBACK~

Naruto, I believe it would be a good idea for you to interact with kids your own age, I don't know how being an ANBU- where you have to kill people on missions is going for an eight year old. Kitsune-san, I would like to give you the mission to protect Uchiha, Sasuke, his clan was recently murdered and as the last of his clan, I think it would be good to get some protection for him. Stated the hokage.

I see, he said taking off his mask revealing the partially bandaged up face of an eight year old Naruto, Uzumaki. I accept.

FLASHBACK END~

Ugh, I can't believe I accepted this stupid mission, I want new friends, but WHY did I have to redo the academy? Complained naruto.

Oh well, if I don't leave now, I'm gonna be late.

So far, naruto's outfit consisted of a jacket like his fathers, but with blue flames at the bottom, blue cargo pants blue shinobi sandals, and a mask that was a grey/blue that also functioned like a shirt. His hair was a bit longer than his dads, and tied into a loose braid in the back with some bangs hanging over his forehead protector. Naruto didn't go too much so that he could have the lowest scores, and be placed on a team with sasuke.

AT THE ACADEMY

Thank god today was the day they get their teams he thought, I can't bear to be in this stupid place for one more day! The only two people in this whole place that have ever been nice to me are Hinata and Iruka-sensei. I wonder if I'll be with Hinata-chan? That'd sure be nice, but I can't let her know I'm in ANBU, this is going to be pretty hard.

But he was interrupted out of his musings by Iruka coming in.

Settle down class! Settle down! Now I'm going to list off the genin teams, ok? Now listen carefully... He listed all the groups, but sakura and hinata switched teams/places... Team seven will be Naruto Uzumaki, Sasuke Uchiha, and Hinata, Hyuuga, your instructor will be Kakashi, Hatake.

1 hour later~

Ungh where the hell is sensei? Asked naruto to nowhere in particular. Naruto, I'm s-sure sensei h-has a go-od reason for b-being late. Hinata stated shyly.

Ugh, whatever his reason is, it had better be good. Said Naruto.

Down the hall, Naruto senced a familiar chakra presence, as the door opened, he saw why, it was Inu-san.

Meet me on the roof.

ROOF~

Yep, that's definitely him, the name sounded familiar, but now that I see him... I remember a lot of things, he's my good ANBU teammate.

State your likes, dislikes, name, hobbies, and your dreams.
Brooder, you go first.

Hn.

My name is Uchiha Sasuke, I don't like too much, my dislikes are far too great to list, I have no hobbies, and my dream-no my ambition is to kill my brother and restore my clan. He said qwith a glint in his eye at the last part.

Now you, white eyes.

Ummm, my name is Hinata Hyuuga, I like flower pressing, cooking, training, and *glances at naruto and blushes*, I dislike people who judge other without havoing a good reason, bullies, and perverts,*takes a glance at his little orange book*. And my dream, is to build a strong family.*glances over at naruto again*

Now you, mysterious blondie.

My name is naruto uzumaki, I like ramen, training, foxes,and learning jutsu. I dislike perverts, bullies, and people who hate others for something they have no control over. My dream is to have a family, restore my clan- which I might decide to tell you about, or not- to build a happy family and become hokage, which I'm pretty close to already he said under his breath, peaking kakashi's interest.

Wow, he looks sorta like minato. thought kakashi.

Well, meet at training ground seven tomorrow at 6:30 a.m. And don't eat breakfast unless you wana throw-up.

LATER THAT NIGHT-ANBU HEADQUARTERS~

I'm sorry to say, but last night, hawk was k.i.a. And as I see fit, I have appointed kitsune as your new captain! Said sarutobi. Your new teammates name is tiger: snake, inu, kitsune-taicho, this is your newest member.

Here is you newest mission-

THE NEXT MORNING~

Naruto was so glad that he had a genjutsu on his hair and eyes, or else kakashi would've knew it was him. He saw the way kakashi had looked at him, he should probably stop wearing his favorite jacket, he couldn't have him knowing that he was kitsune to soon. Oh well, I should probably get going now. He said to himself.

TRAINING GROUND SEVEN~

Wow, naruto-kun looks tired. hinata said quietly.

Yeah, I AM tired he said, thanls to kyuubi, he had gotten senses better than th Inuzukas.

Oh, well what happened that made you so tired? Asked Hinata, apparently concerned for him.

I can't really tell you, Hinata, it's a secret. He wanted to tell her, but he couldn't do it, how would she react to knowing he was kitsune.

POOF~ Yo.

Ugh, your late. Said naruto tiredly.

Yaaawn, man I'm tired, why the hell did the short one get to be the boss said kakashi quietly.

So, why're YOU so tired Naruto?

It's a secret, kakashi-sensei.

Kakahsi had expected him to be a bit mysterious, but he didn't expect anything like this.

So, now we will start the genin exams, each of you will have to get a bell, whoever doesn't goes back to the academy. You will have 'till 12:00,

GO!

At this, Naruto headed right toward him, and went for the bells, Naruto was the best on the team, so he was in battle for about five minutes until he got the bells, but put on some fake replacements, and retreated.

He waited for the other genin to try and get them alone, but it was almost 12:00, so he got their attention to come over there, and right before the bell rung, he tossed the two of the bells to Hinata, and Sasuke.

There, kakashi-sensei, they'll pass, and I'll be sent back to the academy, even though I know that won't happen. He said somewhat smugly.

Wha-what?

I grabbed the bells myself- quite easily- and then I gave both to them, so we all pass, right?

Y-yeah, you got the point, nobody has ever been able to grab them, but ok then, wow.

You all pass, so you are all dissmissed for today meet back here tomorrow. Ja Ne

And for the next three weeks, they did D-rank missions, until...

I'M SICK OF D-RANK MISIONS!

I'd have t-to agree with n-naruto-kun

Hn.

Well, I guess I could give you guys this one, come in tazuna-san sarutobi yelled. You will be having an escort mission to the wave.

Huh? These guys are going to protect me thay all look stupid, epsicially you little guy.

I wouldn't say that said naruto appearing instantly at his neck, sword drawn, I can be quite dangerous.

Oh, come on Naruto, we can't go killing our client now can we? We wouldn't get paid, and that means no ramen that week.

At this naruto got right back in his original spot apparently very affected by the fact that he wouldn't be able to buy any ramen.

Ok, Naruto, Hinata, Sasuke, kakashi, you are all dissmissed, I will see you all after the mission.

Now everyone pack enough for one week, and meet me at the gate.

AT NARUTO'S HOUSE~

Ok, I gotta pack this, and some rations, but Naruto stopped when he saw his mask, he definitely couldn't bring his mask, he couldn't let anyone- especially kakashi find out, he was so surprised he hadn't already.

ANBU BASE

Inu-san will be out of the job for a while on a mission with his genin team. Said sarutobi.

Where is kitsune-san today, hokage-sama? Asked kakashi.

He is also on a long term mission, Inu-san.

Oh...

KONOHA GATES

I wonder how naruto is so good, he's only a genin, right? Thought kakashi.

Ohayo kakashi-sensei let's get going! Said naruto.

Ok.

Thanks for reading! Please R&R
