Sorry guys, I meant to post this last week except my face became best friends with my kitchen's doorway and mom wouldn't let me out of the house until she made sure my nose was fine. On the bright side I'm pretty sure it's not broken! More notes at the bottom!

'But why does he only pick on me?'

It was the small things that first keyed Rin Uzumaki to the fact that he and his twin brother, Naruto, weren't exactly...normal.

The villagers of the Hidden Leaf helped with this much to the Hokage's, the third Hiruzen Sarutobi, disappointment. A snide remake here, a glare there. It didn't take a genius to pick up the fact that the brothers just rubbed the usually peaceful people of Konoha the wrong way.

Normally people steered clear of Rin because he had nasty violent streak. Just ask any of the children (or the occasional adult) and they'd be quick to show you their battle scars. The boy despite his short body and soft features was a force to be reckoned with. He'd fight you on anything and everything and would resort to nothing just to make sure he was on top.

(There was the added fact that he was a little thief and liar and His brother, but hush nobody talked about that.)

With Naruto, Rin could understand. Or at least sometimes. Don't get him wrong, Rin loves his brother! You could see it practically ooze out of the young redhead's every move. With every touch and smile it nearly manifests a physical form that many would be envious to not have.

And yet despite all that...Naruto just...well there just was just something dark in him. It was old. A evil that had stewed in a horrible anger for thousands of years, and that made people itch in fear. A evil Run wanted to scratch out with his bare nails.

Sometimes though it wasn't that. It was Naruto himself. While Rin focused his annoyance at not being accepted by the villagers into keeping the one thing he loved safe, Naruto focused on making sure that he was.

In the wrong way of course.

Oh yes, Naruto decided that if he loved pranks and that if everyone laughed at something whether they liked it or not (hey it was only human instinct) why the heck not? Who cared if it got some people angry when it was hilarious anyway?

It was this line of thinking that found Rin tapping his foot as a calming mechanism so he wouldn't tear his brother a new one. No, Iruka, the Chunin sensei that taught their year had that covered.

Apparently Naruto decided to spend his lunch time getting creative rather with the Hokage monument instead eating. As if Rin didn't wake up early to make something special. From where the academy sat Rin could just barely make out swirls and nosebleeds that decorated the four giant faces of the most prominent leaders the Leaf had to offer. At least it was worth it.

"Naruto I'm getting tired of this shit!" Iruka shouted, his voice getting louder when the tied up blonde's only response was 'hmmrp'. The tic in his brow twitched violently in annoyance.

"Fine!" Iruka shouted and Rin's stomach dropped. He wouldn't, he would-.

"Everyone line up, this is a surprise quiz! I'm going to grade you on your cloning jutsu performance!"

And he did. There was an collective groan from the class as they stood in a line in front of the room in alphabetical order.

One by one the students transformed into Iruka. Some were bad, some were better. But all and all they were prefect enough for genin. Then it was Naruto's turn and Rin felt the sudden need to either grab him by the back of the shirt and run or silently cheer at him.

The blonde's smile had became quite maniatic during the wait and anyone who saw it and understood what it meant knew to be wary. Because this smile told a story of one who was about to wreck havoc and didn't give a damn who got caught in the cross fire. And it would all be Iruka's fault.

Instead don't Rin placed a hand on his shoulder in hopes of calming him. "Don't do anything stupid."

He looked so dejected, Rin had to hide a smile. "Fine."

"Alright people," Iruka said with a smile, "As I said tomorrow is the exam, good luck."

'But why does he only pick on me?'


And we are back! I mean oops sorry about yesterday but I had barely three hours of sleep and my college had us running around campus and the city (I got to go to the World Trade Centre!!), then that fire alarm...guys by the time I took a shower I was about to collapse! So if you feel some strong need to cause me harm do so after my feet stop hurting please. But away thank you (yet again!), you guys for sticking with this story even though it barely started yet again! There are of course many reasons for this but none of it matters now! Yay!

First thing first, how does every other Thursday updates with surprise Mondays (when I can manage it) sound? I don't want to make this official because when I plan ahead things tend get dropped and left behind but you guys deserve it so I'll try my hardest! I mean holy crudy monkey balls we almost three freaking thousand views, heck yeah y'all deserve it!

Second thing. Now there might be some questions on why I skipped ahead to where canon starts...to be perfectly honest I didn't even want to write any of their past down, so ask away!

The last thing is I made a tumblr (das-misfits). There's literally two pics right that I just posted a little while ago, but you can still check it out. Don't hate on the pic quality though, I don't know how to use all those fancy editors nor which one to use so I go old school ;p
P.S. Is it just me or can we not delete chapters anymore? It might just be because I'm offline or whatever.

Anyway thank you all again so so so much! I hope you enjoy yourselves!

Don't forget to like, comment, and follow!

(I edited this yesterday so it's pretty understandable if there are any tell meeee)
