sounds of panting was heard in the forest. Naruto decided to train even harder to be able to defend himself If needed. but not to hurt but perhaps to get away, he didn't want them to think of him less then they already do.
He was doing situps on a tree branch with weights strapped acrossed his body. one per limb and two on his torso. The training regiment that this was from was made by a guy named well.. guy. he watched the man train with a surprisingly similar looking kid and decided he should try that.
Taking everything he had learned and redoing it exactly was actually a surprise. he usually didn't have great memory but their movements were slow for him to see. perhaps they weren't going as fast as they were for the kid to keep up.
shaking his head from those thoughts he contiuned to pull before the branch snapped. his eyes widened in surprised before he twisted his body and looked up and saw a branch. trying to reach for it as fast as he could it was barely out of reach... before a black substance shot from his hand and latched onto the branch.
Naruto blinked in surprise and looked down. the branch was still falling as it finally hit the ground... perhaps he shouldn't of picked the smallest branch. looking at his hand and arm he saw two black splogges on both of his arms. he tried to wipe it off but it didn't budge. like it was a tattoo.
frowning slightly he flicked his wrist and felt natural as the black markings shot out again. trying it again it receded back to where it was. taking out a roll of bandages he wrapped it to cover it just In case. Mabey gramps knows what it might be.
...
when he got home he put his stuff down onto the ground and into the bathroom to examine the markings. he unwrapped the bandages and tried to wash it off but it stayed just like last time. sighing once more he looked up and blinked in surprised. his eye was different... and there was a strange marking above his eye.
he placed his hand over his eye in shock and relooked it over atleast three times.
gramps has to know...
...
Hiruzen was having a calm relaxing after noon before behind the door ruckus was heard.
Kid! you can't go in there!
he sat the cup he was drinking from down in curiosity and got up to check.
I need to ask the old man something! it's really important!
he heard a equally as loud voice and knew who it was and chuckled slightly.
quickly getting to the door he opened up the door and walked down the stairs leading to the lobby like area.
it's fine. let him up.
hiruzen stated as he looked around the corner and saw Naruto with his right eye covered with a wrapping bandage... strange.
Naruto happily smiled and hugged the grandfather figure and hurried into the office.
now Naruto-kun, what's so important.
Hiruzen chuckled making naruto smile.
Well I was training today and the strangest thing happened!
Naruto said exasperating his tale while the hokage listened.
these strange marking appeared on my arms and eye!
he pointed towards both making hiruzen frown.
Markings...
he looked towards the bandages and held out his hand for Naruto to show them.
Naruto showed him his arms first and Hiruzen examined one of them while he undid the bandages on his eye.
Hiruzen looked up and was surprised to see a orange eye staring back at himself.
he looked up and saw a symbol that he had never seen before and tried to wipe off the marking to see if Naruto was doing a elaborate prank and saw it wouldn't come off.
it seems you unlocked some kind of ability Naruto-kun.
Naruto blinked and tilted his head in confusion.
Something that I haven't seen before.
Naruto frowned in sadness and shook his head.
Wait... Naruto-kun, aren't you suppose to be at the academy?
Hiruzen asked making naruto frown again.
it's to easy... but the teachers keep failing me. I decided to skip and train on my own.
Naruto looked off in a daze before he grinned.
also... I did kinda prank mizuki-sensei. I don't think he liked it.
He wondered what happend to him... he did hear a scream...
well then naruto... we will see what this is, for now... wear those goggles you have. that should block that from sight.
he pointed towards the markings making Naruto nod.
he rewrapped his arms and placed his goggles back on and got up.
Oh and Naruto?
he turned towards the elderly man..
keep that a secret just between us.
He winked making Naruto smile brightly.
HAI!
