Naruto gasped, his face saddend. "So its true," You looked up at him.

"Iruka-sensei never believed in me," Naruto said to no one in particular. 'So pony tail is Iruka-sensei.'

"That is how beasts are," Iruka began.

'This man must be important to Naruto if he is so affected by his words' You thought.

"But that's not how Naruto is," He smirked. "He's nothing like that."

You smiled, someone other than you cared about him.

You felt something wet drip onto your face, you felt Naruto start to quiver a bit. 'He's crying'

"Huh!" The enemy exclaimed. "I was gonna save you for later Iruka," He whipped out his weapon. "But I have changed my mind."

Naruto placed a hand on your shoulder, "(Y/n) leave, I've got this." You saw the determination in his face and you nodded.

You began to get away, looking behind you.

You smiled once more, Naruto had figured out how to do shadow clones.
