it was a peaceful morning in the hidden village of Konoha, the sun was slowly rising and the villagers started to wake up for a normal day of work. Well everyone except our twelve years old blond hero, also called the demon brat, Naruto. He was currently on his way home after a normal early morning training in the forest, thanks to the early hour he didn't have to deal with a lot of insults or glares from the villager and had all the time he wanted to talk to his only friend, in his mind. As weird as it can be Naruto's only friend is the source of the villagers hate toward him, the nine tailed fox Kurama that is sealed in him. They were talking about the training Naruto did earlier as usual when they saw something not so usual waiting at Naruto's home, on the floor just in front of his door was a grey owl. And as if this wouldn't have been weird enough the owl seemed to want him to take the letter that was on its leg. After taking the letter and opening it carefully, a habit he took because the only letters he ever got were trapped, and reading it Naruto went from curious to confused before being completely pissed off. So that's how there was now an angry young Naruto going straight to the hokage manor with an owl circling above his head. When he got to the manor Naruto went without second thoughts to the hokages office despite the screams of protest of the secretary.

"We need to talk old man!" exclaimed Naruto when he busted through the door of the office, giving the hokage an interruption from a meeting with his advisors that he mentally thanked him for,

"I'm sorry Naruto but I'm in a meeting so can you..." The old ninja started with a smile but stopped when he saw the letter the boy was holding, it's crest and the owl that was sitting on his head, much to the kid displeasure, "Of course Naruto" he turned to his advisors "We will continue this conversation later, for the moment I need to speak to Naruto if you excuse us" the hokage sent them a cold glare when they tried to protest that silenced them before they got out, sending glares at Naruto who couldn't care less about it.

"So Naruto, how can I help you?" he asked with a smile,

"Some jerk put this owl in front of my door with a letter saying I'm accepted in a wizard school, seriously, how dumb does they think I am? Everyone knows that magic is just a fairy tale that parents tells their children!" he exclaimed, his voice going down on the last part, making the hokage cringe but he recomposed himself,

"Naruto, what I am going to say might seem difficult to believe but... Magic is real" there was a tense silence before Naruto's outburst,

"Yeah right, if magic exist why I haven't seen it before?" he asked, thinking he had won the argument, but...

"Maybe I will be a better choice to explain that if you don't mind" said a new voice behind Naruto, making him jump back instinctively in front of the hokage with a kunai drawn. He saw the intruder, an old man with a long purple robe, glasses the shape of a half moon, a twinkle in the eyes and with a white beard that went down to his waist. The intruder and Sarutobi smiled at Naruto who seemed ready to defend the hokage,

"You can put away your weapon Naruto, I know him. I expected to see you since he had this letter" Sarutobi said, Naruto looked between his pseudo-grandfather and the supposedly not intruder before putting back his Kunai,

"I thank you for putting your weapon away Naruto, let me present myself, I am Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore, it's a pleasure to meet you" the stranger said while extending his hand, Naruto shook it warily, he noticed that the man was stronger than his appearance let's out, but not enough for a ninja to worry, but he was sure that Albus was powerful in his own way. The hokage couldn't help but to feel a bit proud and a bit sad that Naruto seemed to analyse Dumbledore, proud because it is an important skill for a ninja but also sad because it wasn't the academy but how he was treated in his life that taught him that, unknown to him Dumbledore had similar thoughts.
