Naruto Fan Fiction ❯ Breaking Point ❯ Fight or Flight ( Chapter 2 )

Breaking Point

 

Yay! I got the second chapter all done. Just so that you know…I think that I will continue to do this is 1st person POV. It's kinda fun actually. Also…I have no clue for pairings so if you have a suggestion then let me know. I am open for anything so it doesn't matter if it's a guy or a girl. About Yondaime's name…I made my brother look around for the name on various sites online, and the name that kept popping up was Kazama Arashi…so that's the name that I'm gonna use. Personally I think it fits Yondaime perfectly…but please enjoy the story and review…I'm begging you to review…. Sorta…

 

-`Thinking'-

 

Disclaimer: If I owned Naruto, Yondaime would still be alive, and Naruto would totally kick ass.

 

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooo

 

After I left `baa-san's office, I started walking to my apartment. In a lot of ways I suppose that this was a good thing. Regardless of whether my mask is on or not, I have a bad habit of making rash decisions. The time that it took me to walk to my apartment was giving me the time I needed to think things through. It also gave me some time to adjust myself to the thought of my father.

-` If I leave Konoha, then I'll be giving up everything that I've worked so hard for. Leaving means that I would be giving up. I won't give up…I refuse to give up. Running will undermine the trust that my father had in me. Even if he couldn't raise me, he believed that I would be strong.”

Looking up as I walked through the village, I realized that the looks of hate weren't there anymore. Before now, I hadn't realized that the looks had stopped. I guess I was so busy keeping my mask up, that I didn't have the time to notice. Sighing heavily, I grimaced slightly as I looked down at my clothes.

-`I'm going to stop this. I refuse to be the stupid dobe that they've seen all these years. Continuing to act like an idiot is nothing less than a disgrace to my father's legacy.'-

Slowing down as I reached my apartment I came to a decision. A fairly big one too. I decided that I would fight to regain the name of my father. If I can regain what was taken from me, then becoming Hokage should easy.

-`First thing that I'm going to do, is dress according to my status. I'm not a stupid genin. It's time that I finally let them know about it.'-

When I left for training with Ero-Sennin he made me take the second Chunnin exam they held that year we left. I passed of course, but then a month later I was forced to take the Jounin exam. I didn't even know that I was going to participate. Ero-Sennin just grabbed me and threw me into the arena with a really loud `kick their ass' for inspiration. When we sent the news back to Konoha, I asked for it to remain a secret. Imagining their reactions caused me to start smirking.

I still hang around with the rest of the Rookie 9… but now that I think about it…

We've never been what you could call friends.

Sure they tolerate me, but that's it they just tolerate me. There are only a few of them that I would willingly call friend. My mouth thinned out into a hard line as I realized something else. I would need to change the interactions that I had with them. Shaking myself out of my thoughts I looked up to see my apartment…and something else.

-`I've died and gone to hell! I'm only 15 dammit! What the hell have I done so wrong in 15 years of life? Is it really possible to have pissed off that many Kami's?'-

Straightening my body, I walked up to the small gathering outside of my apartment. I didn't even bother to look at them as I brushed my way past them. Feeling a movement of air behind me, I dodged a fist that had been sent my way. Glaring at Kiba I began to talk rather icily.

“I hope that there is a reason for you being here. I wasn't aware that you even knew where I lived.”

Looking around, I noticed that everyone had decided to come “visit” me. Hearing someone moving towards me, I tensed my body slightly when I noticed that it was Sakura.

“Naruto! You baka! We came because Tsunade-sama sent us. What the hell…”

Feeling my eyes harden as she began to speak, I cut her off before she could get going on her rant.

“Haruno-san, I would prefer it if you wouldn't address me so familiarly. Although you are my teammate, we are not close enough for you to use my name as such. Please keep that in mind the next time that you feel the need to address me.”

Taking note that everyone seemed to be in a sort of daze, I took advantage of it. Quickly pushing my way through them, I managed to get into my apartment before they noticed. Rolling my eyes when they started pounding on my door, I went to my bedroom. Smiling happily, I knelt down beside my bed, and pulled out a box that I had hidden underneath. Opening the box, I took out clothing that I had in there and changed. Finally I grabbed the vest that I had in there and put it on for the first time since receiving it.

Hearing my front door shatter jerked me out of my reverie. Shaking my head, I left my room and went to meet some furious people.

Walking into my living area I was struck by the huge aura of killing intent directed towards me. Eyeing my door, I gritted my teeth before I turned my attention to the people now gathered in my apartment. Raising an eyebrow at them I began to speak.

“I'm going to assume that `baa-san sent you here to stop me from leaving. I'm not going to leave Konoha, so I would appreciate it if you told her that. Also, I would like for you to tell her that I'll be back there in a bit to apologize for my words earlier.” Rubbing my temples, I glanced over to the door where four of the guys were standing. “Sasuke, Neji, Shikamaru, and Shino, think you guys could stay here for a bit? I got something I need to talk to you about.” Seeing their nods I turned to go back to my room…but then that damn idiot just had to open his mouth again. And people say that I'm loud?

“Oi Naruto! What the hell are you doing with a Jounin vest on? You're still a genin you idiot!”

Turning to glare balefully at Kiba, I reigned my anger in before I snapped.

“I am wearing a jounin vest, because unlike you, I have been a jounin for the past three years. Ero-Sennin forced me to take the jounin exam when we left. However, I'll answer all your questions later. I have some things that I need to take care of. So, if you wouldn't mind, I would like to have some semblance of privacy.”

I sent a quick look of appreciation to the only four I could call friends. Kiba had opened his mouth again, and they took that opportunity to shove them all outside. Fixing my door the best that we could, I asked them to follow me to my bedroom. Grabbing my clothes off the floor, I removed the scrolls that I had in them. Finding the scroll that I was looking for I tossed it over to Neji. Flopping down on my bed I waited silently for their reactions to the scroll's contents.

“Your real name is Kazama Naruto?”

 

ooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo ooooooooooooooooooooo

 

I was going to write more, but I really didn't want to have this chapter run on and on. So I decided to split this up into two parts. Plus, it makes it a lot easier on me. Writing while you're in the hospital is not the easiest things in the world. I should have chapter three out soon. And yes, I am aware that there are a lot of loose ends at the moment, but I promise that within the next couple of chapters everything will begin to tie together. Also Kyuubi will be making an appearance soon, I swear that I haven't forgotten about the stupid furball. So until then, Ja ne!
