Naruto POV

"What can I do to prove I'm me old man?" I asked in a disdainful manner. The Hokage said he would ask me a few basic questions.

"When is your birthday?" Hiruzen asked with a stern expression.

"October tenth."

"Who is your idol?" the old man asked. I personally thought this was a stupid question.

"Lord Fourth, Minato Namikaze." I replied, feeling bored.

"Who are your friends?"

"I wouldn't call them friends. They are more like acquaintances. The ones closest to friend status would be Shikamaru Nara, Choji Akamichi, and Shino Abarame." I said. The old man seemed content with my answer.

"Who are your parents?" he asked. His face was carefully blanked of any emotion. I knew this was a trick question but decided to answer anyway.

"My parents were Minato Namikaze the Yellow Flash of the Leaf and former Hokage, and Kushina Uzumaki the princess of Uzushio and the Red-Hot Habanero." When I finished answering the question, both Kakabaka and the old man were gaping at me.

"Where did you learn that?" asked Kakashi. Hiruzen nodded.

"It's not that hard to figure out. I seriously look dangerously similar to both. I have Dad's hair and eyes, and I have Mom's face. My personality is a mixture of both. I'm surprised people haven't pieced it together by now."

Hiruzen's eyes became comically big, then narrowed so much I wondered if he could still see.

"How do you know what they acted like? You haven't met them, and I doubt that you just walked up to someone and asked."

"Kurama told me." I said a bit reluctantly.

"Who is Kurama?" Lord Hokage asked.

"Kurama is the Kyuubi. He's really nice and answered my questions."

"You just, talked, had a casual conversation, with the Nine Tails?!" Kakashi exclaimed. His visible eye was wide. I bet his hidden one is too.

"I met him after a bad beating on my third birthday. He helped me heal and we became friends." I said. I felt a little guilty lying to them, but it was necessary for my cover. The old man and Kakashi seemed to accept my answer. Hiruzen cleared his throat to gain our attention. Once he had it, he began talking.

"Ok, I am convinced you're Naruto, but I have one more question for you." Hiruzen said.

"Shoot."

"Why are you acting odd. You don't usually act like this." he asked, looking concerned and confused.

"I was wearing a mask. The villagers would be livid if they found out the real me. A loud, naïve, and weak demon is better than a smart, calculatingly cunning, strong demon. They would feel threatened if they were to learn about the real me."

A dark aura was surrounding my body, whirling around me. The next thing I heard was someone coughing awkwardly.

"Eh-hem." It was Kakashi. "Not that I don't enjoy this meeting, why am I here? So far nothing that has been discussed has to do with me."
