What can I say about my life? Hm… well, I guess I started out pretty normal in a way. I'm an orphan; I was left on the door step of my adopted father's home and grew up on a desert plant that is called Suna. I never really knew where I came from and to be honest? I didn't really care where I came from. I was happy and had an amazing life. But, I couldn't help but wonder if there was more out there to my life, I just stay in my home town and pull pranks on people who annoy me and play music for those who I feel like needs some cheering up.

Though what I can't stand to see are the pretty ladies getting hurt and- what? Why are you staring at me like that? Ugh, fine, I try to protect everyone; I guess you can call me a singer, a prankster and a hunter. I'm not really famous though with the hunting though I am pretty good with a sword and gun.

As a child, I grew up with many dreams, I wanted to be a top hunter, a top singer… to travel the galaxy… but, a dream that I never thought I'd ever be was a hero.

This is my story… the story of not only how I followed all of my dreams, but found out about my destiny. This is the tale of me, my friends… and how I had saved the entire galaxy all by myself. What?! Okay, I'll stop! This is the story of how I saved the galaxy with my friends, there happy?

"Woohoo!" shouted a blonde haired young man as he rode an orange and black hover board. The hover board was long, almost resembling a surf board though it was wider and not as narrow. The board was mostly orange with black around the edges and through the center as there were also bands that went around his feet to keep him firmly onto the board.

The young man, he has long blonde hair he grew out that reaches the middle of his back, and he has tied it up at the nape of his neck and has bright ocean blue eyes. His skin was a bit tan from years of being under the sun and his face had three whisker-like markings on his cheeks. He wore an orange robe-styled shirt without sleeves that went a little past his waist. Long black pants that wrapped tightly around his ankles and matching black shoes with open toes. His shirt also had black that went around the neck with a black stripe continuing to go from his neckline down his chest and reaching the bottom, while he also had a sash tied around his waist. To go along with his outfit were the orange sleeves that he had made to wrap a little past his elbow with a few cloth belts. He thought that were handy with concealing a weapon for self defence against the monsters…

The most noticeable thing though about this young man was the strange marking on his left shoulder. It was a circle with what seemed like a swirl that almost resembled a whirlpool. Of course, the young man just claims that it's just a birthmark while others sometimes think it's some kind of tattoo.

'What should I do today? Everyone seems so down lately…' thought the young man with a frown. For the past five years, Suna has been under slavery… all because of their natural resources. Shaking his head, the young man wanted to do something, anything to make the planet a better place yet it seemed nearly impossible at this point. 'I won't give up… I have to do something…'

Stopping his hover board, the young man looked around and saw the guards, men all wearing special armour that protected them from attacks, and of course to keep them cool in the heat. Narrowing his eyes, the young man knew that he should do something… though sadly he didn't have his scarf with him that he used to keep the sand out of his face or in this case, to hide his face and the whisker marks that adorn his cheeks.

"Are you going to do something stupid again Naruto?"

Yelping a bit, Naruto turned his head and frowned when he saw a man that was roughly his age. The man had short red hair, green eyes with black surrounding his eyes as if he hadn't had a decent amount of sleep in years. He also wore a black t-shirt with red trim and brown pants that was styled the same as his. What he also noticed though was not just the love tattoo on his head, but the large gourd that resided on his back. Giving him a big smile, Naruto said "I don't know what you're talking about Gaara."

"Naruto, you're a twenty year old man and you pull pranks…" calmly said Gaara, his gaze still as calm as ever. How this guy could remain calm was a mystery, though he wasn't going to make a comment about that. The red haired man shook his head, just sighing as he said "what were you planning this time?" Naruto had to admit, no matter their differences, Gaara was a good guy… what also confused him was how Gaara could remain so pale…

Grinning from ear to ear, the young man calmly said "I was thinking on stealing the guard's helmets. Maybe to get them going or something. This place is so boring without a little excitement ya know?" Gaara stared at him for a brief moment. Naruto never could tell what his friend was thinking but that was one of the things that made Gaara interesting. Naruto was the funny guy and Gaara was the calm yet serious one. Before he knew it, Gaara held out a long orange scarf causing Naruto to blink in shock before looking up at Gaara's face.

"If you want to pull a prank without being recognised then you may as well take your scarf." Calmly said Gaara, his lips slowly creeping into a smile. Something rare, though it was something that Naruto was happy he could do. Now if only he could get Gaara to get with that girl that liked the red haired man and, of course who he had returned feelings for. "Oh, and Jiraiya wishes to see you…" And there was the bomb shell…

"Do I really have to?" moaned Naruto.

"Yes."

Great, just great… didn't he have enough to deal with as it was? Shaking his head, Naruto accepted the scarf and wrapped it around his neck before he pulled it over his nose to hide his face. He knew that the guards were always different so there was no way that he would get in any kind of trouble that was for sure. Smirking, Naruto went on with his mission… for he had one last thing set into motion… Oh wait… "Gaara do you have my guns? I might need them…" asked Naruto when he turned to his friend.

"The real question when don't I hold your guns for you?"

"Okay, what about my sword though?"

"Sorry, you'll need a new one… The sword is dull and when they tried to fix the crack in it, the blade snapped in half to the point where it would cost you way too much to have it fixed. Your best bet is to just buy a new one." Gaara said with a small frown. Well, he sort of expected that but at the moment he was just happy that he had some weapons to defend himself with.

The real question is, would it be enough for him to pull off his prank? Ah well, no time like the present now wasn't it. Chuckling to himself, Naruto fixed his scarf before he powered up his hover board and rode off. Today was going to be a good day that was for sure! Nothing could go wrong!

"So, tell me again… why do you have those bumps on your head?" asked a white haired man as he handed the blonde haired young man an ice pack. The man looked like he was at least in his forties but really he was in his fifties. The man wore a black long sleeved black shirt and matching black pants. The usual outfit he has one when indoors

"Hey, I told you Jiraiya… it was a prank." Said Naruto with a pout as he pressed the ice pack on his head. Wincing at first, he sighed softly before sinking in his seat. He had explained what had happened during the prank though he knew that it was how it was meant to be sadly. Yawning softly, Naruto looked over at the white haired man; his black eyes stared at Naruto with concern. The old man had two red lines going down from his eyes almost like he was crying bloody tears and his hair was white and in a spiky style with it pulled back in a ponytail at the nape of his neck. His hair was even longer than Naruto's for the old man's hair reached the floor while sitting down and just hovered above the ground when standing.

Jiraiya nodded as he said "yes, but tell me… what… happened…" Damn it, he was using his serious voice for once. Of all the voices he had to use it had to be the serious one? Shaking his head, Naruto lied his head on the table as he tried to choose his words carefully, knowing that if he word it wrong there was no way of knowing what the pervert was going to do to him.

Looking at Jiraiya's eyes, Naruto calmly said "I was trying to show them whose boss. I can't just stand around and watch Suna be enslaved like this! For crying out loud we're all fucking slaves! I can't' stand to see this planet under slavery!" He had shouted the last part; everyone knew how Naruto hated that the planet was enslaved by the new law because of their natural resources.

Then, of course there was the war that was going on between two kingdoms.

Jiraiya frowned at Naruto for a moment before sighing softly and ruffled his hair. "I know Naruto, I don't like it either but there is nothing you can do about it." Naruto just lifted his hard blue eyes; they shined with anger and rage. If there was one thing that the white haired man knew it was that Naruto was never one to back down from a fight, and this in a way was a fight. "Naruto, all you can do is cheer the villagers up; no one dares to fight the army…"

Naruto frowned in thought… cheer people up hm? Now that he thought about it there was something he could do to cheer people up though he wasn't sure if it would be enough. Sadly, he didn't really have much to go on but that little idea that had popped into his head. Yawning, Naruto pushed himself up and made his way up the stairs of the house to his room. Maybe if he was lucky the papers he needed were still in the filing cabinet that he begged the pervy sage. Ha, that was funny… him, a sage because he was just such a pervert!

Shaking his head, the young man knew what he had to do to cheer people up. Though, he just hoped that it would be enough to get them to cheer up. Taking a deep breath, the young man grabbed the sheet music that he needed and smiled as he looked over the lyrics quickly. Memorizing them before he rushed down the stairs and out the door. Lifting his arm, Naruto slapped the bracelet on his wrist causing it to transform into his hover board, jumped on and flew off to the plaza.

Smirking, Naruto flipped through the air, the board hovering above him as he spun around in circles with his arms wrapped around himself as if to prevent anything from allowing him to spin so fast. "Woo Hoo!" shouted Naruto before flipping through the air like a wheel turning. Loosening up his foot from the metal band that wraps around his foot Naruto jumped off, though not before pressing a button on the board. As he free fell from the sky, he saw everyone screaming up at him, wondering if he was going to die or not.

In a way, that was kinda funny since normally they don't care what happens to him but ah well. Flipping through the air one last time, Naruto held his arms above his head and landed on the balls of his feet as he squat on the wooden stage that was used for entertainment. Pushing himself up, Naruto smiled at everyone as he said "I'm okay everyone!" he chuckled a little only to hear everyone groan and start to walk away. Eyes widening, he said "wait!" Lifting his hand and holding it above his head, Naruto caught his transformed hover board and in its place was a guitar.

Taking a deep breath, Naruto saw that everyone was staring at him now. Their eyes were filled with curiosity as they tried to figure out what he was going to do since he didn't really play all that often. When he did, the only people to hear him play were Jiraiya or Gaara. Either way, he knew that this was something to lift everyone's spirits. He knew, just knew that they hated being enslaved like he did… that was something at least, they all could agree on. Inhaling softly, Naruto started to pluck the strings of his guitar.

Sever all the pain from memories plagued in vain
Stop the endless woe you've come to know
Find your heart and soul; Break through every wall
Until you reach your goal
C'mon, clap your hands and fight until your finally made whole

Everyone watched Naruto play, wondering what the lyrics would be. Chuckling softly to himself, the young man wondered if they would even like the song. Well, maybe if it did lift their spirits anyway. That was the only thing that he cared about to be honest. It was nice to play for people for a change, well others besides those he lived with.

Gazing skyward, and so sure tomorrow will arrive…
I don't know how I'll get through by myself
With my heart in a daze

Looking around, he saw that a few people were starting to clap along to the song. Watching him with a small smile, that was enough for him. So long as he could watch them smile for a change instead of looking so miserable. Closing his eyes, Naruto focused on the area around him, wanting to make sure that there were no beasts around… it was rather weird how he could sense beasts; it was a rare gift, at least from what Jiraiya had told him.

The birds beside me soar away into the endless sky
Will they find with their free spirits the light
At the end of this maze?
Please wait… I want to fly with you
Let me on your back to look for my soul
All the pain that haunts me to this day will vanish
If I just reach up higher, I'll find what I desire
I'll never tire 'til I…

Smiling softly, Naruto could feel everyone starting to cheer up, another thing about his 'gift'. He could literally sense people's emotions; he could even see the emotions in the form of 'aura' or something. He wasn't really sure how it worked, all he knew was that he could turn it on and off if he chose to. Opening his eyes, turning on his 'sight' he saw that everyone had a bright yellow light around them, a sure sign that they were cheerful.

Sever all the pain from memories plagued in vain
And stop the endless woe you've come to know
Find your heart and soul; Break through every wall
Until you reach your goal
C'mon, clap your hands and fight until you're finally made whole

Soon, people started to cheer him on. They liked the song that was a plus at the very least. Smiling at them, Naruto just grinned as their yellow light that surrounded them brightened to the point where Naruto almost felt blinded by its intensity. Shaking his head, he turned off his gift and went back to the song. It was nice, that people were noticing him now… not as a prankster this time, but as a normal person. They had always feared his gifts… always…

In the dark of night and sitting in the endless breeze
I am bent down to the ground with no strength
And I'm lost in despair

Suddenly, Naruto's eyes went wide as he released part of his hold on his guitar. Still playing of course with his free hand. Reaching over to his side, Naruto pulled out one of his guns and whipped it out as a monster was heading straight for him head on. Narrowing his eyes, Naruto felt the energy building within himself; the energy flowed through the core of his body and into the gun. Soon, a blue swirling bullet shot out of the gun and right into the monster, shattering the beast as its body turned into dust.

It's time like these, I wish I had some wings to fly with ease
I don't mind even being the Melissa sailing high in the air
I've tried to stand upon my feet
But every time, I fall back down again

Everyone had screamed from the shock of what Naruto had just done, though they were amazed that he didn't lose the flow of his song. It was rather amazing that was for sure, though when they looked back up at the blonde haired young man, Naruto put his gun back in its holster at his thigh and went back to strumming the guitar in perfect sync with both the vocals and the lyrics.

Maybe this is not the way to find my answer
The wind is calling to me, and it is guiding me free
And I will then find…

Throwing his head back, as if feeling sad about something and shouting his depression into the air. Soon, he lowered his head and had a bit of a smirk on his face as he sang. Naruto was rather surprised that everyone stayed down here as long as they have. He had thought that someone of them would have ditched the song and went back to their business and ignored him all together. Though, it was rather nice that they were able to enjoy themselves for a change.

The key to my way out of this abyss of doubt
There's no time to wait or hesitate
Even if I'm bound, and the key I have isn't the right one found
Still, I will end it with the impact of the lock on the ground

Looking around at everyone, Naruto saw that they were all clapping with the beat. Yup, they were definitely into the song that was for sure. Smiling at everyone, the young man knew that he would have to make sure that they kept on smiling, that they were never sad ever again. Taking a deep breath, the young man lowered his head as he went to finish the last of the song. He closed his eyes in content as he just wanted to enjoy the last of the song before anything happened.

My soul will shine its life through the pain and strife
If I'm never saved, I'll still be brave
If I disappear, my soul will still live on and help you fight your fears
And the moonlight will reflect my shadow to show I'm still here

Naruto finished the song with a bright smile on his face, he didn't know what he was to expect from people, all he knew was that he had to be prepared. Looking around, everyone just stared at him for a moment before clapping their hands. Naruto couldn't help but give a big, wide grin as everyone cheered him on and asked for another song. He couldn't help but smile at the thought of that, it was something that he had always wanted, to bring hope to the people. One day, he would free Suna from this rule, from being slaves. Suddenly, the ground started to shake, Naruto yelped in shock and confusion before looking up.

He didn't know where the beast was, nor could he sense it. What the hell was going on? Shaking his head, Naruto looked back at everyone and saw them all screaming, panicking and running around in circles before starting to make their way to their homes. Narrowing his eyes, the young man looked up once again and yelped in shock when he saw something heading straight for him… it looked like a large metal foot.

Jumping out of the way, Naruto rolled on the sand, his guitar returning to its bracelet form. Shaking his head, the young man grabbed his bracelet before slapping it back onto his wrist and looked up and saw the monster jumping from where the remains of the stage was and jumped away. He didn't know where it was going but he figured that it was the Residential Area. Growling softly, Naruto pushed himself up onto his feet and looked ready to kick some ass and take some names. Though he wasn't sure if his guns would be enough, of all the times his sword had to break it had to be before a huge ass monster was appearing in the town?!

Suddenly, monsters appeared from the sand, causing Naruto to look around in shock. Okay, he hadn't expected the monsters to hide in the sand and pop out all of a sudden. Where ever they came from, it mattered not to him… he was going to beat these monsters and get to the Residential Area. Pulling out his guns Twin Hurricane, Naruto took a deep breath as he prepared to transfer his energy into the guns though it would be a challenge for him to take down these monsters at such close range but he knew that it would have to do…

Inhaling softly, the young man smirked as he said "I hope you've enjoyed your first and last day here fuckers… for your going to never leave here… alive." He laughed before getting ready to shoot; at least he was until there was a weird slicing sound coming from behind him. Turning his head for a quick second, Naruto saw a man heading toward them… at least he was sure it was a man from the height and the build. The man zipped by, he wore a long white coat, black pants, black toeless shoes, and some kind of hood and goggles that hit his face from view. It made Naruto wonder who this man was though what he had noticed the most, was the sword that he carried.

From what he could see, the blade was shaped like a lightning bolt, though that was all he could tell since the man's hands hid the hilt and guard though for now there was nothing that he could do about it but to fight the monsters.

"Don't worry kid, these foes are nothing. The main prize is the big fella. These beasts must have been on the monsters coat tails and hid in the sands when they arrived." Calmly said the hooded man when he was back to back with Naruto.

"Who are you?"

"Right now, we have to kick some beasts butt."

"No really who are you?"

"After that, we gotta take down the big guy alright?"

"Can you please tell me who you are?"

"Let's just hope that no one gets hurt during the battle…"

"Who the fuck are you?!"
