Naruto grabbed his pouch filled with kunai and shuriken off of his dresser and left his barren room that had nothing more than the essentials within its confines. He briefly toyed with the idea of telling his parents that he was going to a secluded training ground near the outskirts of the village to do his own training but opted against it after he recalled the last time he wanted to start his shinobi training.

[ Flashback - 6 months ago ]

Naruto had just woken up to the sounds of his parents walking around the house getting ready for the day ahead of them. He could hear hear his mother in the kitchen getting breakfast ready and his father was getting his siblings up to start their day. Naruto could hear Natsuki's voice asking what they would be doing for training today. His expression reflexively turned into a scowl and his mind began to wander as he lay in bed, already forgotten. 'Training? They refused to help me at all or even let me train since we unlocked our chakra six months ago.'

Naruto started to remember the reasons his parents told him why they would need to focus on his siblings. He understood that but they haven't been doing anything besides chakra control for the past six months. Naruto was far from ignorant. He was smart for his age, some would even go so far as to call him a prodigy, so he could easily see the gap that their training was putting between him and his family. And he didn't want that.

Our young prodigy hadn't just been laying around all day while the rest of his family trained, he was training too. He noticed early on that after breakfast his mother and father would take his siblings to one of the farther away training grounds to train. They would spend all of their time there until lunchtime came around and they came back, with the exception of his father who made his way to the Hokage Tower for his duties sometime before then.

Naruto would use this window of time to head into his father's study and find a chakra control exercise to train on until his family came back to the house. He had already mastered leaf concentration, leaf spinning, and kunai balancing. He had found out that even with his naturally large reserves, being an Uzumaki, he had naturally good chakra control which made the exercises that much easier for him.

He had also already learned how to preform what most people called 'the academy three' jutsus. Those particular jutsus being the Henge, Kawarimi, and Bunshin. He found them by accident when looking around in his the study and decided to give them a try. He had learned them relatively easily. It only took him a few days to get a good grasp on them and had mastered them a few days after that.

If that was all the academy requires to graduate then he wasn't going to be looking forward to his time in the academy.

Our young blonde made a silent vow, 'One more time. I'll ask for training just one more time and if they refuse I'll start training even harder on my own.'

With those thoughts in mind Naruto got out of bed and started heading downstairs. He saw both of his parents in the kitchen and decided to ask them after breakfast. It was a silent breakfast of pancakes, eggs, and orange juice. He sat at the end of the table, his siblings barely awake sat to his left. Minato Sat at the head of the table, reading the paper to catch up on the daily events. Kushina had already gotten up to do the dishes before training. Naruto decided now to make his request.

"U-um Tou-san? Kaa-san?" he asked in a shy voice.

Both of them looked towards the voice, wondering when he had arrived at the table.

Minato glanced up from the newspaper and gave Naruto a curious look before returning back to his paper. "What is it Naruto? We were about to head off to start Nawaki's, Narumi's, and Natsuki's training."

Kushina was staring intently at Naruto intently now, knowing what he was going to ask.

"It's about that actually...I was wondering...if you could start training me to be a shinobi too, just like them?" Naruto ended hopefully.

His siblings were paying close attention to the interaction going on between their parents and their older brother.

Minato and Kushina both gave him a frustrated sigh knowing he wouldn't like the answer.

It was Minato who responded, "Naruto you know exactly why we have to train them early. If we don't they could lose control of themselves and and hurt a lot of their classmates once all of you start going to the academy. Besides we promised you we would only teach you the basics, and we did by helping you unlock your chakra a few weeks ago. The rest you will learn at the academy."

Naruto started to get upset at those last few sentences, "But the last time you helped me was six months ago! I know you have to help them because of the Kyuubi chakra, but all clan children start learning before they go to the academy!"

Minato was also starting to get a little worked up but before he could get a word in, Kushina decided to interject herself into the argument, "No buts!" Kushina replied heatedly, "You'll learn chakra control, basic jutsu, and taijutsu at the academy!"

Naruto was about to respond but he was cut off, "You will listen to your father, he is the Hokage he knows what's best for you and he said no and that's final! Now go to your room and think about what we've said!" Kushina yelled, her temper getting the best of her.

Naruto didn't say another word, he just did what his mother asked and headed up the stairs to his room. His siblings looked on at the scene with either a confused or a sad look on their face.

Don't misunderstand Kushina and Minato didn't hate Naruto, but they had seen much during their careers as shinobi and had committed unspeakable acts as well. They wanted to have at least one child spared from that fate. Or at the very least, they wanted to let one of their children to enjoy their childhood instead of forcing them to train everyday.

Unknown to them through these beliefs that had already started to push him away from their perfect little family and it would eventually come back to haunt them.
