We Can Change

Chapter 1 - Before the acadamy

Naruto's POV
I was strolling home under the sunset with joy, practically jumping out my skin. I was joining the academy tomorrow! Kurama warned me about boring history lessons he went through with Kushina. And yes I know who my parents are, ever since I was 3.

Flashback

I was sitting at home after somehow escaping a mob of villagers, I don't remember what happened, but I heard a voice, and it calmed me down-

"Oi kit don't take me for granted."
"That voice, you're the one that helped me back there aren't you?!" naruto asked in joy.
"Well yes you owe me a thank you but anyway about that calming feeling-"
"THANK YOU" screamed naruto he was obviously grateful. "Uhh what do I call you? Your the Kyuubi right? I doubt that's your real name."
"Your a bright one kit I'm Kurama and about that feeling..."
"Huh, what about it your fluffy and stuff wasn't that feeling from you?"
"You expect a calming feeling from me? Guess your still a small 3-year-old gaki, anyway I'm pretty sure that feeling was..."
"Yeah! Yeah! What was it!"
"Ummmm..."
"C'mon spit it out!"
"It was like Hashirama's chakra; you practically synced with nature."
"Hashirama who's that?"
"Here kit I'll show you but first enter your mindscape, sit down and meditate, focus on your breathing, I'll pull you in once you're ready."
"Hai!"

(History of Hashirama and Madara, Kyuubi attack, Kurama's past, sandaime's past and 3 sannin)

"SO YOUR TELLING ME"
"Yes"
"THAT I HOLD"
"Yea"
"THE ALMIGHTY KYUUBI AND HAVE THE AMAZING KEKKEI GENKAI MOKUTON FROM SHODAI HOKAGE"
"Appreciate the compliment but YES FOR THE LAST TIME YES."

Flashback end

Thoughts amazing memories came back to me as I went through the clothes I had. Most of the clothes I wore while training with Kurama are now too small and apparently jiji (sandaime/hiruzen) was going to give me new ones right about-
*knock knock*
Haha I called it
*knock knock*
"Opps sorry comingg" I replied.
"Naruto here are your new academy clothes now I have one request for you," said jiji in a serious tone.
"Yes?" I asked unsurely.

"Now the only people who know about Kurama and mokuton are me, you, the elders, Itachi and no one else. So when you go to the academy, please hide your true powers. Be sure to focus on taijutsu as well as you never had a real sparing partner" explained jiji.

"Hai! I will jiji! I already looked at my class, seems I'm stuck with a bunch of clan heirs, not that it's a problem just hope they aren't arrogant."
"Just watch the uchiha brat, uchiha's are always arrogant."
I chuckled a bit to Kurama's comment, also to the confused look of jiji.
"Kurama talking again right? One last thing, your name will be uzumaki naruto, not senju namikaze uzumaki naruto. Understood?" Asked jiji
"Awww I like having my 3 clan names" whined naruto.
"Hmf, see who's being arrogant here."

I giggled again and waved jiji goodbye. I picked up the small bag of clothes and rushed to my room to try on my new outfit for the next 6 years until I'm 12 and a Genin!

I looked in the mirror and saw the perfect outfit jiji gave me. I had a dark blue T-shirt and an orange vest with a hoodie, along with some dark blue trousers to match. I turned around and saw the bright red uzumaki symbol on my back. I smiled an ear to ear grin. I quickly took my academy clothes off and jumped straight to bed. Tomorrow is going to be an amazing day. With that, I went to sleep with a huge smile on my face. Before I drifted to sleep, I thought about all the training I did and how I had to hide it.

Flashback

Jiji had just told me about my enrollment at the academy and asked about how my skills were coming along. I could currently easily escape the mob of people that would chase be to every corner of the village every day, but Kurama's jokes would drown out the insults they were saying so I never really minded.

My mokuton was still horrible at the moment. I could do simple suiton, and doton jutsu's, however, my best mokuton would be manipulating a tree or two. Kurama has me work on chakra control the most as he knew I would have massive amounts of chakra in the near future. Me being an uzumaki and a jinchuriki.

Being able to walk on water made suiton jutsu much easier as I could make average size water bullets with a water source (suiton: teppoudama). My taijutsu wasn't the best, I could use chakra to enhance my strength, and my speed was fast (according to Kurama) but my technique lacked.
I didn't know where to learn taijutsu and Kurama explaining it was just too confusing, so I decided to wait till the academy to have physical senseis to teach me.

Flashback end

Time skip, first day of the academy

Sasuke pov
(Remember this was before the massacre just like canon story)

I got to the academy early thanks to Itachi-nii. I was the first one here, so I stared blankly into space fiddling with my long-sleeved dark blue shirt as my hand made its way up to a burn mark on the shirt near my shoulder. I clearly remember practising Katon: Gokakyuu no jutsu (fireball jutsu) with my nii-san when I got a bit too hasty and tried the katon:hosenka no jutsu (Phoenix flame jutsu) resulting in me burning myself a bit. I nearly chuckled at the memory before a few students started filing into the classroom.

It was the hyuuga heir followed my the Nara heir and the akimichi heir. I stared out the window until more people arrived. Itachi-nii told me about my class and I immediately recognized the light blond as the yamanaka and the one with red marks on his cheeks to be the inuzuka. There was one more, but his face was basically completely covered up. I just assumed it was the aburame because he couldn't be the uzumaki my family spoke of.

I've met him once, long ago, though at a training ground. He was training really hard, but I always found it weird that he was by himself. We were around 6 at the time and even I stuck by my brother 24/7 or at least as much as I could. I was forced out my thoughts when a pink blur started screaming.

Apparently, the pink-haired was arguing with the yamanaka. I shrugged it off and continued thinking about all the fire jutsus I could learn. I was cut from my thoughts again as I heard my name being screamed by the two ridiculously loud girls. They came running towards me batting their eyelashes so hard it looked like they were going to fall. I tried to ignore them the best I could.

"See forehead you made Sasuke-kun mad," said the yamanaka.
"Don't blame me on everything sure it was your ugliness that made my Sasuke-kun mad ino-pig" shouted the pink hair girl which I learned to be called Sakura. Luckily our sensei walked into the classroom forcing the two girls back to there seats.

Iruka's pov
I still can't believe Hokage-sama picked me for the class of clan heirs, I was excited to meet my new cute little academy students when I heard screaming coming from my class. I rushed in to check on them to find two girls fangirling over a dark-haired boy. Wait hold up that's the uchiha right? I looked at the empty seat next to him and wondered who wasn't here.

I introduced myself and did the attendance. Everyone was here except for Naruto, Hokage-sama talked to me about how naruto was special, he didn't say how so but I'll see soon enou-
I saw a yellow and orange blur bursting through the door. I guess that's what Hokage-sama meant by 'special.'
