2 Chapter 1
Taiga was 5 just years old when he made his first seal, he was happy
"Grandma, GRANDMA look!! look", Taiga came running towards his old grandma who looked at the seal and nodded with a smile
Taiga was happy, according to him his grandma is the best in this world, she loves him the most, she always read him a story at night, she is always smiling and she even teaches him fuinjutsu
When his grandma said that he can not use ninjutsu like other people he was sad, but she hone his little body as much as possible conditioning his prodigal reflexes, she even engaged him in fuinjutsu
-------
(Later that night)
"He sure is growing fast", said the sage of the six path
"Kids grow up fast master", said the old lady the Aide
"Indeed, but back to business, it's time for him to befriend child of prophecy, Ashura reincarnation", said Sage of the six path
"Can you tell me your plan master"
"Indra and Ashura needs to be united in order for them to fight mother, using this kid as the bridge we can unite them at the same time making taiga strong enough to stand toe to toe with mother"
"But won't the power corrupt his mind", asked the Aide
"That's why I am here, that's why we are here"
-------
Next day Taiga and his grandmother have gone to park for playing, he played for some time when he saw a lone kid sitting on a swing
"Why are you alone", asked Taiga which makes the kid on the swing flinch
"W-what do you want", the blond boy was covering his face
"Wanna befriend", said the redhead with a grin
"F-Friend?", Naruto was shocked that someone wished to be his friend
"You don't want to?"
"I do"
He grinned, Naruto grinned and they become friends
When Taiga alongside Naruto goes to play with other kids, they refused and so Taiga refused to play with them
They were dirty with all the mud on their body
Naruto was sad the moment he saw his first ever friend looking at the Old lady, thinking it's time to let go of another friend like countless others in the past
"Grandma, This is My friend his name is Naruto", said Taiga smiling
"H-Hello", said Naruto obviously nervous
Old granny looked angrily at Naruto and Taiga which makes Naruto more nervous
"I think I will go", Naruto with a head down decided to go back to Orphanage
"Where do you think you are going, mister"
This statement alone makes Naruto even more nervous
"Sigh...let's go back for you two to bath"
"R-Really"
"What you don't want to", at this time she was really angry
"I-I will go"
"Yea, let's go home", Taiga took Naruto's hand and pull him towards the home
-------
Naruto bath alongside Taiga and eats the lady's food before going to sleep with Taiga, this was the best day ever not only he found a friend he even found an adult other than the Hokage who does not hate him
-------
"This should take care of Ashura, but what about Indra", asked the Old lady Aide
"The attack by Kurama did a huge number on the village, they are suspicious of Uchiha's it won't be long before something large happens that's when we will take care of Indra", replied The sage of six paths
"Kurama, do you want me to talk to that big idiotic fox?", asked the Old lady Aide
"Let Ashura deal with it on his own, It's time to teach Taiga a technique", said the sage of six path
"hmm...how about flying Raijin, his fuinjutsu level and reflexes are good enough already to learn the basic version", asked the old lady
"You deal with it anyhow you see fit, but just keep an eye on him the entire time he cannot get corrupted at any cost, this time we can not leave it to destiny, mother is going to be free soon we have to be prepared"
"Don't worry master I will make it sure the boy never gets corrupted"
-------
And so, Naruto becomes the frequent visitor in Taiga's home with granny making breakfast lunch and dinner to him alongside theirs
Old granny also taught Little Naruto the leaf sticking exercise, in which he was really bad
-------
4 Months Later, Taiga learned his first technique the flying thunder god level 1
8 Months Later granny taught Little Taiga how to make the seals from his hands or legs
Another Year Later, he finally performed flying thunder god level 1
Another 13 Months was gone by, and Taiga finally managed to do flying thunder god flawlessly, it was fast and definitely not something to be able to dodge
It took him 3 years to learn Flying Thunder god level 1 and to think the fourth Hokage, after learning flying thunder god created variations and took the technique to the maximum limit
He was far far far too weak to be able to compare with the likes of Fourth Hokage
-------
He is 8 today is the day he attend the academy with his best friend
He runs all the way to Naruto's apartment
When Naruto was 7, Orphanage kicked Naruto out, and Hokage give Naruto his own apartment
Of course, Taiga and his grandma were the frequent visitors there they bring the food to eat, just like Naruto comes to their house every so often
Naruto truly like the grandma, she is always smiling, to him, Taiga was like his brother and the old lady was truly his grandma
They were 7 years 6 month old when she brought both Naruto and Taiga to eat at Ichiraku ramen
The two kids eyes widened once they tasted it and they cleaned 6 to 7 bowls
The two kids and the Old Lady becomes the frequent visitors to Ichiraku Ramen
------
"Hey Taiga, why do you have 2 surnames", asked Naruto
"Grandma said it's to remind me of my parents, to make sure I never forget that they loved me till their last breath"
"Do-Do you think my last name means my parents loved me as well"
"Yes Naruto, grandma always told me that everyone is in this world is here because they are being loved, no matter how little no matter how insignificant you are here because your parents loved you"
Naruto was crying at this point
-------
During the academy days, Little Taiga was definitely the worst at studying but he is top-notch at physical side which makes him an average shinobi
Last being Naruto and top being Sasuke
Naruto because of some reason becomes the rival of Sasuke, but he never won
-------
Naruto with some blush and embarrassment asked Granny about getting the girl, and she actually gave him advice
Naruto managed to win over Sakura, giving Ino free reign over Sasuke that he never respond to
-------
Hinata was crying at the park all alone
"Why are you crying?", asked Taiga
She got startled by the voice but let it go
"I-It's nothing"
"Sigh...Hinata, entire class knows that you like him, You like him and he like someone else...it hurts isn't it?"
"I-Its really nothing, I am just a useless person who would ever love me, Its not li-"
Before she could say anything else, she got hugged
"w-what are you doing", she tried to push him but he held on to her
"You are not useless Hinata, you are the kindest and most powerful kunoichi in our class, and don't think no one will love you, everyone loves you Hinata at least I do"
"W-what are you t-tal-king about", she was totally red-faced after hearing it
"Does that makes you feel better"
"W-What"
"You know Whenever I am down grandma always hug me and I always feels better"
"T-That, I do t-thank y-you", said Hinata smiling
"That's great I have to go, but remember Hinata you are not useless or weak, you are our class strongest kunoichi"
He runs towards his Grandma who was waiting for him
"Thank you Taiga-kun", muttered smiling Hinata
-------
Just like that 4 years gone by, Hinata's crush moved from Naruto to Taiga, while Naruto and Sakura officially becomes the couple
But on the flip side, Hinata stopped sneakily following Taiga when Taiga grandma spotted him, Hinata thought Old lady would be angry but instead, the old lady was smiling
Grandma asked Taiga to drop Hinata home on a regular basis, much to his confusion but he still did it
Taiga always hug her whenever she is down, Hinata tries to hide it, but for some reason he always finds it
He even sneakily marked her with flying thunder god seal
They spent much time together
-------
Alongside his training his grandma taught him how to sense chakra, he is not a sensor at least not born like that but due to the training he pretty much becomes a chakra sensitive
She even begins the training of flying Raijin level 2
Of course, it's supposed to be tuff than the level 1 but since Taiga already knows the basis and space-time being his sole affinity it becomes easier
-------
Time went by and he somehow passed the academy being the average
Naruto failed
But later due to some reasons unknown to Taiga Naruto passed
Afraid that taiga will hate him he decided not to tell him or grandma
Not Knowing his every move is being watched by his grandma
-------
Taiga learned Flying Raijin Level 2 just after graduation day, of course, he could not do it effectively but he can put it into use
Besides he already mastered Level 1
-------
'Genma Shiranui' was enjoying his day when ANBU comes to summon him
"Lord Hokage"
"Genma, from this day onward you are going to be an instructor of 4 man team"
"L-Lord Hokage"
"Do you have any problem with this?", asked Hokage
"O-Of course not"
"Very well, you will be team 2, here is the list of all your members"
"First is Yakumo Kurama, she is the last remaining member of main branch Kurama clan"
"Second is Sarutobi Ken, he is a hard working guy although his talents are just average"
"So who is third?", asked Genma after some minute of silence
"Uzumaki Kanzaki Taiga...he is entire reason why you are being asked to be the instructor of this team"
Genma eyes narrowed, "Why, who is this kid?"
"Sigh...he learned Flying Raijin"
"W-WHAAAT"
"I know, it's shocking, although he can put it into use, but this kid could not apply it in battle like Minato, your job is to train him on how to apply the Flying Raijin in battle, the more effective he can apply it in battle, the better it is"
"Please don't worry Lord Hokage, I will train him with the best of my abilities"
"Don't forget about other two kids, now dismiss, I have other works to do", asked Lord Hokage puffing his smoke
"Please rest assure I know what to do", with that he disappeared in the leaves
